Traveling to all corners of the world gets easier and easier. We live in a global village ,but this doesn’t mean that we all behave in the same way.

How should we behave when you meet someone for the first time? An American shakes your hand firmly while looking you straight in the eye. In many part of Asia, there is no physical contact (接触)at all. In Japan, you should bow, and the more respect you want to show, The deeper you should bow. In Thailand, people greet each other by pressing both hands together at the chest, In both countries, eye contact is avoided as a sign of respect.

Many country have rules about what you should and shouldn’t wear. In Muslim countries, you shouldn’t reveal (显露)the body, especially women, who Should wear long blouses and skirts .In Korea ,you should take off your shoes when entering a house Remember to place then neatly together where you came in.

In Spain, lunch is often the biggest meal of the day, and can last two or three hours. For this reason many people eat a light breakfast and a late dinner. In Mexico, Lunch is the time to relax, and many people prefer not to discuss business as they eat ,In Britain ,it’s not unusual to have a business meeting over breakfast.

In most countries, an exchange of business cards is necessary for all introductions. You should include your company name and your position. If you are going to a country where your language is not widely spoken, you can get the back side of your card printed in the local language. In China ,you may present your card with the writing facing the person you are giving it to.

Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the websites you’ve visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.

In fact, it’s likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend（配偶）, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal, Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen -- the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked.

Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it’s important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs （面包屑）you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal（泄露）what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.

The key question is: Does that matter?

For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no."

When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it A survey found an overwhelming pessimism（悲观）about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me."

But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths （收费处）to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon (优惠券).

But privacy does matter -- at least sometimes. It’s like health: When you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it’s gone do you wish you’d done more to protect it.

What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?

A．Friends should open their hearts to each other.

    B．There should be a distance even between friends

   C．Friends should always be faithful to each other.

   D．There should be fewer disputes between friends.

Why does the author say "we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret" ?

   A．Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.

   B．People leave traces around when using modern technology.

   C．There are always people who are curious about others’ affairs.

   D．Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities.

What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protections?

    A．They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.

   B．They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.

   C．They rely more and more on electronic devices.

   D．They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.

According to the passage, privacy is like health in that ______.

   A．people will make every effort to keep it

   B．its importance is rarely understood

   C．it is something that can easily be lost

   D．people don’t cherish it until they lose it

   CHICAGO ---Call it a reward, or just “bribery(贿赂)”.

Whichever it is, many parents today readily admit to buying off their children, who get goodies(好东西) for anything from behaving in a restaurant to sleeping all night in their own beds.

That’s what worries parenting experts.

“I think that reward systems have a time and a place and work really well in certain situations,” says Marcy Safyer, director of the Adelphi University Institute for Parenting.

“But what often gets lost for people is being able to figure out how to communicate to their kids that doing the thing is rewarding enough,” Safyer says.

Parents and experts alike agree that the dynamic(动力) is partly a reflection of the world we live in. It’s unrealistic to think a parent wouldn’t reward their children with material things sometimes, says Robin Lanzi, a clinical psychologist and mother of four who’s the research director at the Center on Health and Education at Georgetown University.

“But you want to make sure that they match the behavior, so it’s not something huge for something small,” Lanzi says.

She recalls hearing about a father who offered his child a Nintendo Wii game system for scoring a couple goals in a soccer game.

Elizabeth Powell, a mother of two young daughters in Austin, Texas, knows what she means.

“You want to raise them in a way that they’re respectful and appreciate things,” Powell says of her children. “But sometimes, you wonder now if kids appreciate even a new pair of shoes. ”

1.Parenting experts are worried that ____ .

2.What Safyer says suggests that ____ .

3.What can we learn from what Robin Lanzi says?

4.The father who offered his child a Nintendo Wii game system can be regarded as

_____.

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Nowadays we live in a global village, and many difficulties will arise if we can’t express ourselves fluently in English.

In spite of my awareness of its importance,I seldom find chances to practice and improve my oral English.So,I am still very weak with regard to this respect.One reason is that my pronunciation and intonation aren’t good enough.The other is that I am so shy that I am always too nervous to find other exact words to express my ideas and feelings.As a result the best way for me to do is to remain silent when others are practicing and making great progress in their oral English every day.

Now I am attaching much more importance to oral English and I have made up my mind to seize every opportunity to parctice. I begin to participate activities,such as going to “English Corners”,talking in English with my classmates and with native speakers. “Nothing is difficult in the world if you really put your heart to it.”as the Chinese saying goes.If I can build up my confidence,if I am not afraid of losing face any more,if I really work hard on it,I am sure my oral English will be excellent someday
