Traveling in Thailand C There are few families in the United States that do not have either a radio or television set. Both of them have become a necessary part of our daily life, keeping us filled with the news of the day, teaching us in many fields of interest, and making us happy with singing, dancing and acting.Marconl, the Italian inventor, who gave us the radio, probably didnt know how much his great invention would have done for the world in the years to come. Radio had, perhaps done as much as any other communication tool. Things of the world can be reported to people everywhere a few seconds after they happen. Travelers in out- of the way places, ships at sea even astronauts round the earth are able to keep in touch with each other by radio.Television is another important invention. It lets us see as well as hear the actor. Since its appearance, TV has done a great deal in the daily life of people everywhere. Many programs are now televised in color.Perhaps the most modern invention is “Telstar”, a “star” moving round the earth. It makes it possible for the people all over the world to be closer than ever before. Now a family in Chicago can watch on TV a motor car race in Italy, a table tennis competition in Beijing or a volleyball match in Japan as these events are actually happening!86. The passage tells us that _ in the U.S.A. have no radio or television set. A. a large number of homes B. all the families C. a small number of families D. quite a few homes87. Why does the passage say radio and TV have become a necessary part of our daily life? A. Because they have touched nearly everything in our life. B. Because men would not live happily without them. C. Because they are the only ways to spread information. D. Because no communication means no life.88. What is the use of a “Telstar” according to the passage? A.

A. he was just an Italian inventor B. his invention has done much for the world C. he had reported much to people all over the world D. he helped people travel a lot around the worldDThe idea of what shaking the head means is not always the same in different countries. Maybe some visitors would be surprised when they first came to India. When talked to an Indian, he would often shake his head. The visitors might think that the Indian did not like what they said. But, in fact, they would be completely wrong.Indians always shake their heads when they talk to each other. It does not have the same meaning as our “No”. If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or it will give him some trouble.One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and an Indian to drive it. When he told his driver to send him to his office, the Indian shook his head at once. The office said again, and the driver shook his head again. At last, the office, of course, got angry.“How dare you refuse my order?” he shouted. “Drive me to my office at once!”The driver answered in quite loud voice, too. “Yes, sir!” But to the officers surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time.The car started, and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while, and then he nodded with a smile, “No mean Yes here!”91. An Indian would shake his head when _. A. he didnt want to do anything B. he agreed with others C. he
