Reading ComprehensionPassage 1When invited to lunch, dinner, or supper, it is very impolite to arrive late, as it is usually planned to have the meal at the exact hour given in the invitation. By arriving late, you will not only keep the other guests waiting, but greatly inconvenience the hostess and spoil the dinner. Western cooking is not, like Chinese, served up at the last minute, dish by dish from the frying pan. The dishes are all cooked, and planned to be ready exactly on the hour for which you are invited. If you are twenty minutes late, the meat will be overdone, the cauliflower（花椰菜） will have lost its freshness, the French fried potatoes their crispness（脆）, the other guests their tempers, and the hostess her good opinion of your manners.It is just as important not to arrive too early. Your hostess may be still dressing or busy arranging the table or cooking the dinner, and not prepare to meet you. One should plan to arrive not more than five minutes before the appointment time - just in time to remove ones wraps and meet the other guests before dinner.When you arrive, the hostess or some member of the family will probably meet you at the door and take your coat and hat. In the winter time you should dress more lightly than usual, as you may expect the rooms to be warmer than in most Chinese homes. It is bad manners to open a window or a door in another persons home without first asking permission, and before you do that, you should consider the comfort of the other people present. Your hostess will accompany you into the room where the guests are assembled and introduce you to anyone you may not already know. Then she may indicate a seat for you, or you may find one to suit yourself. There is no order of importance of seats, so it does not matter where or when you sit down, except that a gentleman never sits when any lady is still standing. As later guests arrive you will rise to be introduced to them if you are a gentleman; if a lady, you will not rise except for older ladies or persons of special importance.1. Why is it not polite to arrive late when invited to lunch, dinner, or supper?A. Because the meal has already been served.B. Because that will inconvenience the hostess and spoil the dinner.C. Because the food is to be served up dish after dish.D. Because the other guests wont be able to leave in time.2. Which of the following statements is true of the Chinese dishes served at a dinner?A. The dishes are cooked long before they are served.B. The dishes are all served up at the same time.C.The dishes are served up one by one from the frying pan.D.The dishes are often overdone if not served in time.3. What will happen if you are twenty minutes late?A. The meat will be overdone.B. The cauliflower will remain fresh.C. The French fried potatoes will be crisp.D. The other guests will feel happy to wait for you.4. Which of the following is the main reason that you shouldnt arrive too early?A. Your hostess may not yet come back from shopping.B. Your hostess may think you are too eager to have the dinner.C. You will find no guests there to talk to.D. Your hostess may still be busy working.5. Whats the proper time for a guest to come to a dinner?A. Just before the table is set.B. A few minutes before the appointed time.C. Right after all the other guests have arrived.D. When the dinner is ready to begin.Passage 2“Soon, youre going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1.25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door.Roses require a good deal of care, and if it werent for the pleasure they give, it wouldnt be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. bushes must be pruned (剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out be even more perfect for tomatoes. Thedaily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long since disappeared under the thick leaves.Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is twofold; First, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found I have to reach down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdraw my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June. But they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet to
