　　In a survey of 1,500 European hotel managers, Americans were ranked second, behind the Japanese, as the world's best tourists．In the survey, conducted in April by the online travel site Expedia's German branch, Americans were seen as the most likely to try to speak a foreign language and the most interested in sampling local food．

　　Americans came in third, behind the Japanese and British, as the“most polite”tourists, and third, behind the Japanese and Germans, as“best behaved．”And-we're sure this has nothing to do with how the hotel managers view Americans-Americans were ranked far and away as the world's most generous tippers and biggest spenders．

　　On the other hand, Americans were seen as the shabbiest dressers, the most likely to complain and the second noisiest．Who's louder? Only the Italians．

　　Some of the other findings：Russians were seen as the least polite travelers, followed by the Israelis and French．The stingiest tippers：the Germans, followed by the French and Israelis．

　　Italians, by far, were ranked as the best dressers, followed by the French and Spanish．In terms of bad dressing, the British were a distant second to Americans, followed by the Germans．

　　Who's the most unwilling to try speaking in a foreign language? The French, the British and the Italians, in that order．

　　The Chinese are the most reluctant to sample foreign food, followed closely by-this is strange-the British, whose home cuisine is probably the world's most seriously laughed at(a little unfairly, perhaps．)

　　And, finally, the overall award for“worst tourists in the world”goes to the French, with the Indians and Chinese taking home the silver and bronze, respectively．

In the last few years, some researchers have decided to study why kids lie(撒谎)，So they made up a special team of 12 students, all under the age of 21.

Each student was given 36 cards, and each card listed a topic that teens sometimes lie about to their parents, The researchers worked through the cards with the teens, learning what things the kid was lying to his parents about, and why.

By the end of the interviews, the kids saw for the first time how much they were lying and how many of family’s rules they had broken. It was reported that 98% of the teens had lied to their parents.

Out of the 36 topics, the average(平均) teen was lying to his parents about 12 of them. The teens lied about what movie they went to, and whom they went with .They lied about how they spent their afternoons while their parents were at work, and something like that.

Most parents hear their child lie and think he’s too young to understand what lies are or that lying is wrong. They believe their child will stop when he gets older. Many books also advise parents to just let lies go — they’ll grow out of it. But the truth is that kids grow into it. In studies where children are observed(观察) in their natural environment, a 4-year-old child will lie once every two hours, while a 6-year-old child will lie about once every hour and a half.

1.The researchers started the project by .

A．playing cards

B．free talking

C．doing a survey

D．discussion

2.The topics on 36 cards are mostly between kids and .

A．parents

B．teachers

C．researchers

D．friends

3.From this passage, the teens lied on about of the 36 topics as an average.

A．12%

B．33%

C．98%

D．25%

4.On this topic, the advice from many books for the parents is that they .

A．needn’t worry about it too much

B．should take it serious enough

C．had better do something to stop it

D．should regard it as a great problem

Although women lead healthier, longer lives, the cruel perception that they reach their sell-by date and become “old” sooner than men is widespread in the workplace, research shows.

A survey of more than 2,600 managers and personnel professionals showed that age discrimination is not only common in the workplace, but is full of inconsistencies(矛盾). Six in ten managers thought that they had suffered from age discrimination——usually because they were turned down for a job for being too old or too young. Yet more than a fifth admitted that they used age as a condition when they employ new workers.

Although the survey found widespread agreement that older workers were better than younger colleagues when it came to reliability, commitment, loyalty and customer service, these qualities were not necessarily considered to be worthy of advancement. More than half of respondents believed that workers between 30 and 39 were the most likely to be advanced in their company, with only 2 per cent citing (引证)50-year-olds or above.

Dianah Worman of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development said that there was anecdotal evidence that people were considered old at different ages in different sectors. “We heard of one man working in IT who said he was considered too old by the age of 28,”she said.“There was no evidence to suggest that older workers were less valuable to companies than younger workers, in fact the opposite was often true because older workers often brought experience.” she added.

The findings also suggested that the Government’s ideas on age in the workforce may also be out of step with reality.

68. The text is mainly about ______.

A. the government’s idea on age in workforce

B. age discrimination in the workforce

C. the people who find work

D. the discussion about who is worth promoting

A. the age when they retire

B. the age when they should be promoted

C. the date on which they’re sold

D. the date when they sell goods

70. The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ______.

A. tell the government to employ older workers

B. criticize managers who treat workers unfairly

C. report the findings of a survey

D. show he objects to age discrimination

A survey done recently shows that not all parents _________ their children taking part in the weekend classes．
