【题目】Directions: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentences to fill in the blanks and complete the passage. There are two extra sentences you do not need.

On a typical hot August day in Xianyou County, Fujian Province, Zeng Demei, a retired worker in his seventies, hurries down a busy street. In his hand is a black leather bag. Zeng opens his bag, taking out two forms. 1

Each of the forms contains detailed information of a student. On his arrival two hours later a woman greets him and leads him to her office where another man is waiting. They are the two village officials. They inspect the forms handed to them by Zeng and immediately recognize the girls. 2 “It’s a pity but it doesn’t matter,” says Zeng, who wastes no time in deciding to look for the remaining child, Su Qinju.

After half an hour, they stop outside a small house made of mud brick. A middle-aged man and a girl in a faded pink dress greet them. Su Qiuju is eight years old. She was forced to drop out of school after both her parents died. She is now living with her uncle who cannot afford his own children’s education. However, the year of education Su Qiuju did complete was a successful one. 3

When they are about to leave, Zeng says, “I must find a supporter for this girl to sponsor her education.” Zeng has made it his retirement task to help children complete their schooling. Back in 1999, Zeng took part in a campaign started by the local women’s organization to help students from poor families. He was so overcome by the tough situation of many poor children that he donated all his money to help out a girl.

His task had begun and since then he has spent his time persuading his friends and neighbors and others to donate money. “To me, children’s education is the most important. 4 I have to find sufficient funding before the school opens in September.”

When asked how long he will keep up his vital work as the community’s guardian angel, he has a simple reply, “Not until my eyes can’t see, and my feet can’t move.”

A. They were having problems with their school work.

B. These are for the two girls he’s going to visit this morning.

C. They live in a small village not very far, though only one of the girls is still living at home.

D. She displayed a talent for handwriting, writing her three-character name neatly and beautifully.

E. The thought of students dropping out of school bothers me so much that I can’t get to sleep at night.

F. Of course, some people question why I would want to give up my retirement to go to so much trouble.

【题目】The word “pub” is short for public house. There are around 60,000 pubs in the U.K. One of the oldest pubs, Fighting Cocks in St. Albans, Herts, is located in a building that dates back to the eleventh century.

1 People talk, eat, drink, meet their friends and relax there. Pubs often have tow bars, one usually quieter than the other, and many have a garden where people can sit in summer.2

Groups of friends normally buy “rounds” of drinks.3 It is sometimes difficult to get served when pubs are busy: the bar staff will usually try and serve those who have been waiting the longest at the bar first.

Most pubs offer a complete range of beers, local and imported, with German, Belgian and French beers being in demand.4 As a matter of fact, pubs sell soft drinks, too.

The legal age to purchase alcohol is 18 in the U.K.5 But they must be with an adult and the adult orders it.

It is illegal to sell alcohol to someone who already appears drunk. Fourteen-year-olds may enter a pub unaccompanied by adults if they order a meal. Children may enter a pub with their parents until 9 p.m., which lets families enjoy reasonably priced pub meals together. And it also allows pubs to play their traditional roles as community centers. Customs in British pubs differ from those in American bars. In most pubs in the U.K., you must go to the bar to order drinks and food and pay for your purchases immediately.

A. Most people might think pubs are places where people simply drink alcohol.

B. The person whose turn it is will buy drinks for all the members of the group.

C. People aged 16 and 17, with the license’s permission, may have only one glass of wine during a meal.

D. In the salon bar the atmosphere is quieter and there are fewer people.

E. Children can go into pub gardens with their parents.

F. Pubs are an important part of British life.

G. British people like drinking beers in pubs.

【题目】 The Ayaidah, a Bedouin tribe in north-eastern Egypt, is the last to practice the Bisha’h to determine whether a suspect (嫌疑犯) in a crime is innocent or guilty. They have to lick () a red-hot spoon in the presence of officials. They are guilty, 1.

Believed to date back to ancient Mesopotamia, Bisha’h was used by most Bedouin tribes (部落) throughout the centuries, but all except the Ayaidah eventually abandoned it. 2. Considered by many of the world’s oldest rude system, Bisha’h was mostly used in situations where a crime was committed, but there were no witnesses. Suspects had to lick a heated spoon to prove their innocence.

The principle behind Bisha’h is that a lying person is nervous and has a dry mouth. 3. If they are innocent, they are relaxed, so the saliva (唾液) on the tongue will protect it against the red-hot metal.

4. This way not only causes physical harm to suspects, but also often leads to their mental damage.

Today, the Bisha’h is used as a last way, 5. It’s also used as a way of scaring suspects into admitting their crimes. For example, if the suspects admit what they had done, there is no need to move on with the Bisha’h. That is considered another weakness of this lie detection system, as some people will accept the blame if it means not having to lick hot metal to prove they are innocent.

A. if their tongue is hurt seriously

B. when they have used these methods

C. So their tongues will be burned by the hot metal

D. when there is no other proof or witnesses available

E. All the countries like the way of punishment

F. This way of punishment is banned in countries like Jordan and Saudi Arabia

G. However, those who are against the punishment think that it is not always the case

【题目】 Body language is the “silence language” of every culture. It is important to know the body language of every country, or we may be misunderstood.

In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other’s arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.

Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two or a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say “Pardon me” or “Excuse me”.

Americans like to look the other person in the eye when they are talking. If you don’t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.

Learning a culture’s body language is sometimes confusing. If you don’t know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.

1Suppose you are meeting a customer from United States, how will you greet him?

A.Greet him with a hugB.Stare at him

C.Place a hand on his armD.Shake his hand firmly

2If you stand too close to Americans, they will ________.

C.smileD.stare at others
