I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast. We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide range of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked, “May I get you something?” “A coffee would be nice.” Then I bought him a cup of coffee, We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door, I met one of my friends. He asked, “How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?” “Who?” “The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.” I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the worlds richest and most powerful men! My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet another human being with kindness and sincerity.1. What does the underlined word “disheveled” mean?A.UnfriendlyB.UntidyC.GentleD.Kind2. The author bought coffee for the old man because .A.he thought the old man was poor.B.he wanted to start a conversation.C.he intended to show his politeness.D.he would like to thank the old man.3. How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?A.ProudB.PitifulC.AstonishedD.Regretful4. What is the message mainly expressed in the story?A.We should learn to be generous.B.It is honorable to help those in need.C.People in high positions are not like what we expect.D.We should avoid judging people by their appearances.B I travel a lot,and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?” Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there dont have names;in Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers,“Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop. ” In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, Go north two miles. Turn east,and then go another mile. People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time,not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,”they answer, “its about five minutes from here. You say,“Yes,but how many miles away is it?”They dont know. Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know. People in Yucatan believe that “I dont know is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!5. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place,they usually .A.describe the place carefullyB.show him a map of the placeC.tell him the names of the streetsD.refer to recognizable buildings and places6. Which is the place where people measure distance in time?A.New York.B.Los Angeles.C.Kansas.D.Iowa.7. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer_.A.in order to save timeB.as a testC.so as to be politeD.for fun8. what can we infer from the text?A.Its important for travelers to understand cultural differences.B.Its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.C.People have similar understandings of politeness.D.New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.CI wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but thats impossible. For the most part, Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met.In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isnt large and I live better. Non-imported foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children cant afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.When I am asked which country I consider better. China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different. ”9. How does the author find Chinese people?A.He thinks most Chinese people hardly work.B.He praises most.C.He thinks most Chinese people are proud.D.He dislikes most Chinese people.10. What are NOT cheap in China in the authors opinion?A.Imported foods.B.Local foods.C.Public transportation tickets.D.Clothes and shoes made in China.11. We can infer from the passage that the author thinks_.A.the westerners have got to know China wellB.Chinas economic miracles have appeared everywhereC.the education in rural areas is never cared about in ChinaD.the progress of China is seldom reported in the US12. In the author eyes, _.A.China is better than the USB.China is different from the USC.Americans are richer than ChineseD.China bears great similarities to the USDThere are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman .There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, so that is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers feeling for packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. Thats why the round yellow M signs of McDonalds are inviting to both young and old.This new consumer response to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.13. According to the passage, _ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.A.the pleasing color of the packageB.the special taste of the productC.the strange shape of the packageD.the belief in the product14. If a package or a product is round in shape, it can _.A.bring excitement to the consumersB.attract the consumers attentionC.catch the eye movement of the consumersD.produce a happy and peaceful feeling15. “And the word green today can keep food prices going up.” This sentence suggests that consumers today are _.A.starting to notice the importance of new foodB.enjoying the beauty of nature more than beforeC.beginning to like green vegetablesD.paying more attention to their healthE For the first time in Hong Kongs history, an entertainer has been written into middle school textbooks. He is considered one of the best actors in Hong Kong. Yes, he is Chow Yun-fat. The example of his long hard struggle for success has been used in a chapter in a Hong Kong middle school textbook. Using his experience, students can learn to make the most of their time and to grab every opportunity to succeed. On hearing about this, Chow said happily, “I really hope that my experiences can make young people understand that one should not be afraid of difficulties and setbacks, for they are the only way to success.” Indeed, Chow has travelled a long and difficult path to reach his success. In 1955, he was born into a poor family in Hong Kong. When he was 17, he had to leave school. He worked in a number of jobsas a postman, camera salesman and taxi driver. These experiences paved the way for him to play all kinds of roles later in life. Chow broke into the film industry in the late 1970s. He was one of the hardest working actors and starred in a number of popular TV dramas and films including “Shanghai Bund” and “A Better Tomorrow”. Since 1985, he has won many awards including Taiwans Golden Horse Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards. In 1995, he went to Hollywood. Although he was already over 40, he had to learn English. He even put chopsticks in his mouth to practise pronouncing certain sounds. His film, “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, began to gain him more fame and recognition around the world. In 1998, the mayor of Chicago set aside January 12 as “Chow Yun-fat Day”.16.
