Part 2 Reading ComprehensionI. Choose the best answer.In England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited. About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed (窘迫的) . No one had told them about the British custom (习惯)of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus .Learning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesnt agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding (点头) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty .In that country, you shake your head to mean yes and you nod means no. At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble. Also, you should try to avoid (避免)touching the head of an adult (成人) -its just not done in Thailand .1. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen _.A. were foreigners B. didnt have ticketsC. made a loud noise D. didnt line up for the bus2. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country, you should _.A. learn the language of the countryB. understand the manners and customs of the countryC. have enough time and moneyD. make friends with the people there3. In India it is considered impolite _.A. to use the right hand for passing food at table.B. to pass food with the left hand.C. to eat food with your hands.D. to help yourself at table.4.

Peoples Everyday LifeB. Mind Your MannersC. Shaking and Nodding HeadD. Taking a Bus in EnglandII. Answer the questions.AThere are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington, D. C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Louvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You dont have to visit the university to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.You can call the telephone number of a university computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their works.A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser printer.Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their works much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.1. Are there many famous museums throughout the world?_2. To see the art in FIU museum, what do your special needs include?_3. What are stored in this computer museum?_4. What time was the museum started?_5. What is the main purpose of this passage?_ BYou know its truly amazing how the Jewish people（犹太人） have survived after Hitlers（希特勒）crazy action of murdering 6 million Jews? Thats why in 1934, Germany was the wrong place to be a Jaw. When Hitlers teenage soldiers took over his village, the little Jewish boy, Heinz, was just 11 years old.Every day Heinzs parents taught their children how important it was to learn self-control. When the Nazi（纳粹）soldiers were damaging their village on the streets daily, Heinzs parents knew that just one minute of losing control of their anger against the Nazi could mean the death of the whole family. So Heinz learned to stay out of their way, sometimes crossing the street or taking a different road home.But one day, young Heinz was finally caught by one of Hitlers soldiers. For the first time, Heinz was forced to talk to a young Nazi. But by staying calm and carefully choosing his words, Heinz surprised even himself when he was able to get out of trouble and made this soldier not hurt him, but to let him go. That day, Heinz discovered his magic skill of talking with others. It was a turning point that changed his whole life, and later changed the whole world.After a few years, Heinzs family escaped from Germany and moved to the United States. But Heinz never forgot how to talk with people and help bring peace between Nazi soldiers, later became a great ambassador of peace in the world. Youve probably heard of him-not as a Heinz-but by his American name: Henry Kissinger（基辛格）, the former U.S. Secretary of State.1. How old was the little boy Heinz in 1934?_2. What did Heinzs parents teach their children every day?_3. How did Heinz get out of trouble?_4. Did the Nazi soldier hurt Heinz when they met?_5.
