redi waited patiently for the light to turn green, so that i could continue my journeysuddenly, out of nowhere, an old woman appeared and started asking for moneythat day, i had unknowingly switched off the air conditioner in the car and my window was downthe old woman was standing very close to my caras she begged for alms(施舍物), i closely observed her weather-beaten face, which had lots of wrinkles on ither eyes showed lots of sadness and her whole body was shakingi sensed that this elderly lady had seen some extremely hard times in her life and at this time there was no one to look after her, which forced her to beg on the streetsseeing her condition, i immediately felt from within my being a huge surge(汹涌)of sympathy for herit was coming deep from within my hearti normally give loose change to beggars, however, that day my inner self strongly urged me that i give her something substantial(大量的)so that she could have a good mealwithout any hesitation i took out a substantial amount from my wallet and placed it in her handher weather-beaten face lit up with a toothless smile and she blessed me and went on her wayin the meantime the traffic light had turned green, and it was time to move onas i drove back home i felt within myself a sense of joy and happiness surging through me because i was able to do something for at least one person on this planetit was an incident that both the old lady and i would remember for a long timeher blessings will also be one of the most treasured memories in my lifei often drive past that crossing, but i have never seen that old woman again21.why did the old woman come to the author for alms instead of begging from others?ashe guessed he was kind.bshe found his window was down.cshe knew he had helped many others.dshe thought he was very rich.22.the author learned about the old womans situation .aby asking her relativebby talking with hercfrom her dressing and behaviourdfrom her appearance and her eyes23.what was the authors attitude to the old woman?apitiful bindifferent ccurious dannoying24.it can be learned from the text that .athe author treated the old woman as his relativebthe author usually gives others much money like this timecwhat the author experienced at the traffic light affected him for a long timedit took the author much time to make the final decision to help the old womanbdining while abroad can feel as though you are tiptoeing around a minefield（雷区）of unfamiliar rules. table manners are the basic way to show respect for your host.here are some of the very specific dining dos and donts from around the world.slurp（出声地吃喝）your food.in japan, most commonly when eating noodles and soups, slurping shows your appreciation of the food to the chef. the louder the better! you may also drink directly from the soup bowl - spoons are uncommon.eat only with your right hand.sorry lefties - in india, the middle east, and some parts of africa, it is considered unclean to eat with your left hand.dont offer to split the bill.in france, youre encouraged to offer to pay the bill in its entirety or someone else will.bread is a container.in france, you are supposed to use two hands to eat - either fork and knife or fork and bread. bread serves to assist the food to the fork. when you eat the bread, tear off a piece of it to eat instead of biting directly into the bread. when not in use, the bread belongs on the table or tablecloth instead of the plate.dont touch any part of your meal with your hands.in chile, touching food with your hands is considered ill-mannered. yep, even fries! in brazil, too, pizza and burgers are normally eaten with a fork and knife.dont ask for salt and pepper.in portugal, if salt and pepper arent already on the table, dont ask for them. its considered an offense to the chefs seasoning（调味）skills.dont put food in your mouth with a fork.in thailand, forks are used to push food into a spoon. also, its unusual to use chopsticks - they are considered ungraceful.25.how should we eat soup in japan?a.try to make as loud sound as possible b.use spoons while eatingc.hold the bowl with both hands d.have bread before drinking26.the underlined word” lefties” refers to those who .a.usually put the fork and knife on their leftb.leave without paying for the dinnerc.use the left hand habituallyd.leave much food untouched at the meal27.why shouldnt we ask for salt or pepper in portugal?a.they are too expensive.b.they are not good for our health.c.they are seldom used in seasoning.d.it suggests your dissatisfaction with the food.28.using

popcorn. some people wore it around their necks, too. even today, people still string popcorn as a decoration during the winter holidays.today we cook popcorn in many ways. we can put it in a pot with oil. we can put bags of popcorn in the microwave oven. there are even poppers that blow hot air to cook the corn.many years ago, people of the americas cooked popcorn in different ways ,too. they would throw the corn into the fire. when the corn was heated, the cooked kernels (粒) would fly out. sometimes people would just throw kernels into the fire. when the popcorn popped, they would pick up the cooked popcorn from all around the fire. another way to cook popcorn was to put it in a pot with sand, instead of with the oil we would use today. the popcorn would jump to the top of the sand when it popped.when settlers came to america, they found a new way to eat popcorn :with milk poured over it, just like you eat cereal(谷物).now we like to eat popcorn with butter and salt.the science of popcornno matter how you eat it, popcorn is fun. the real question is: what makes it pop?when you look at those tiny kernels of popcorn, they look dry. but popcorn kernels are all wet on the inside .inside each kernel is a tiny drop of water .when the kernel is heated, the water heats up ,too. the drop of water heats up and turns to steam .this is when the fun begins. steam takes up more space than water. as steam fills the inside of the kernel ,the corn inside starts to puff up (膨胀).there is no room in the tiny kernel .the inside of the kernel gets bigger and bigger .the hard shell of the kernel pops wide open. the kernel turns inside out, and the popcorn is ready to eat.this just goes to show that the popcorn can be many things .it is a decoration and a fun food that is fun to eat, and it is a way to learn about science, too.29. popcorn “ poppers ”are most likely .a. kernels of corn that do not pop b. people who pop the corn kernels c. machines that pop the corn kernels d. bags

exam and you are in a state of panic. you just have to pass it, but how? you didnt even open the book the night before and you hear a voice in your head saying “cheat, cheat .” so what are you going to do, ignore it and fail or go for it? its a tough decision many students must make.most young people believe that cheating is wrong. however, they have cheated at least once in their high school years. so, why do they do it? are they too lazy to study? perhaps, its not as simple as that. according to some experts, one main reason why students cheat is that they see their friends get away with it. its an easy way out. they avoid embarrassment and their parents anger for not doing well in an exam. another reason is that students think its ok to cheat if the subject isnt important for their future career. whats more, most students have to put up with the pressure of getting into university. they need to get good marks to carry on with their studies. this means that there will always be students who will do anything for a better mark.it has never been easier to cheat than it is today. with all the technology available, students neednt cheat by looking over their shoulders anymore. they use mobile phones to send answers to each other during a test. there is also the internet. with hundreds of websites, students dont have to worry because they can find lots of material which they can copy and use in projects. there are even tips on the art of cheating in exams.obviously, if you get caught cheating, you fail the exam or the subject. but it doesnt really matter whether you get caught or not. whats important is that its wrong. you mustnt cheat because cheating is a lie. it deceives (欺骗) people into thinking you know more than you actually do. how can you be proud of something you have achieved through cheating? in the end, its not about deceiving your teachers and your parents, but about fooling yourself that you can do something you really cant.33. the tough decision that many students have to make before an exam is .a. how to cheat b. what to do if they failc. whether to cheat or not d. how to keep calm34. according to some experts, which is one of the
