The report says most people meet their daily needs for water by letting thirst be their guide．It also gives people some good suggestions：women should get about 2.7 liters（升）of water every day，while men should get about 3.7 liters．

On a cold winter afternoon，I was walking home from a supermarket．I was feeling a little tired，as I was carrying my shopping bags．They were so heavy that I decided to stop to have a rest in the park．I walked towards the gate of the park．I noticed a poor mad walking out of the restaurant in front of me．He was holding a paper bag．He walked to a nearby dustbin（垃圾箱）and started looking through it．
I suddenly felt sad．I knew this man would take all that he could get，so I went up to him and gave him some fruit．The man，with wrinkles（皱纹）on his face，looked up in surprise and took what I gave him．

Passage 5
Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person．
When giving gifts，sometimes color is important．For example，for many Chinese people around the world，red is a lucky color，and people often like to wrap（包装）gifts in this color．However，do you know that in Korea（朝鲜），red is a color of death? That is why you should not wrap gifts in this color if you are giving a gift to a Korean person．
What about western countries? In western countries，the color of wrapping paper is not really important．But color does matter when giving flowers，especially roses．You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol（象征）of love．You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．You could also send pink roses as girls to say thank you．
What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well，one thing you should keep in mind is the person's religion（宗教）．When choosing a gift for a Muslim（回教徒的）or Jewish（犹太族的）friend，you should never get food including pork，or things made from pigskin．Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol（酒）．
根据短文内容简要回答下面问题。
101．In which country do people think red is the color of death?
102．How can we show our friendship to the western friends?
103．Can we give a Muslim friend a bottle of alcohol as a gift?
104．How many colors are mentioned（提到）in this passage?
105．What’s the main idea of this passage?
Passage 6

Larry is a twenty-seven-year-old engineer．He buys all his food，clothes and other things he needs in the shops near his home．He likes the friendly shop owners and the fresh food．However，he says there are two main problems．First，buying things from small shops costs more money．Secondly，he can't find the tracks he reads in the small bookstore near his home．He has to go to the big bookstore downtown（市中心）．
Jan is a thirty-year-old mother of two children．She and her husband both work as teachers．They like to shop at the mall with their children because it's safe and clean．There are always interesting things for the whole family to see．Another advantage is that the prices are good．Malls also have many more kinds and sizes of everything than mall shops．Jan says that the main disadvantages are that the mall is always crowded，and it's so big that children can easily get lost．
Roger is a twenty-year-old student who prefers to shop on the Internet．He thinks the main advantage is that he can shop at any hour of the day or night．Besides this，he can buy fascinating（吸引人的）things from all over the world．According to Roger，the biggest difficulty is that it isn't safe to buy things on the Internet．Last year，someone stole his credit card（信用卡）number and bought things with it．Also，once he paid for things and never received them．
