she didnt _19_ a compliment(恭维) in the same way as the american people do. she should answer “thank you.” instead of “no.” she _20_ understood what the american boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. in the west, people will feel proud and _21_ when they are praised. so if someone says the _22_ you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, “thank you.”in our country we think being modest is a virtue (美德) and being proud is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not _23_ being proud, so sometimes you should be confident _24_ being modest. if you are modest and say, “no. im afraid i cant do it well.” while working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. if you often say “no”， you will certainly be looked down upon by _25_. when asking for a job, if one says something like “yes, i can certainly do it.” instead of “let me have a try.”， he or she will expect to get it. so in the west, you should be brave to show your selfconfidence.()16.a.itself b. herselfc. himself d. themselves()17.a.thoughb. althoughc. or d. but()18.a.when b. whichc. what d. how()19.a.receive b. acceptc. refuse d. disagree()20.a.hardly b. reallyc. rarely d. badly()21.a.dutiful b. modestc. shameful d. confident()22.a.dishes b. cupsc. glasses d. bowls()23.a.think b. sayc. ask d. mean()24.a.as soon as b. as well asc. instead of d. in spite of()25.a.another b. the otherc. the others d. others.阅读理解(30分)ain the eyes of many foreigners, chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. theyre not really bad guests, but because the guesthost relationship in china is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. and western hosts sometimes look rude in the eyes of chinese guests.in china, guests are almost like gods. whenever i enter a chinese persons home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. in the west, generally the guest is not a god. acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.my wifes mother, a very kind elderly chinese lady, doesnt smoke. when i see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a nonsmoker, i feel unhappy. usually i want to stop them directly, but i must realize that in china, to be a good host, she must not do that. in most north american homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. at the very least, you could ask, “is it ok if i smoke？” but, dont be surprised if they say, “no, you cant smoke.” in our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.guests in china also have special habits. some western people may not adapt_to these habits very soon. thankfully my wife is chinese, so whenever we visit a chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. however, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. so, if you invite international guests to your house, dont be too surprised if they dont bring you a gift.in china, you probably wont need to change the guesthost relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and chinese are naturally very good hosts. if western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.()26.many foreigners think that chinese hosts are the _ in the world.a. best b. worstc. most natural d. most different()27.when a western guest visits a chinese family, he often _. a. buys some fruitb. feels like a godc. wants some giftsd. takes a cup of tea()28.if the writers guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?a. its ok if you smoke here.b. lets smoke together.c. sorry, you cant smoke here.d. smoking is a bad habit.()29.what is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?a. think back to b. get used toc. look forward to d. keep close to()30.what is the main idea of this passage?a. foreigners should learn from chinese.b. hosts must do things in the guests way.c. western hosts are always nice to guests.d. people should understand cultural differences.bour new foreign students are going to arrive very soon, and here are some ways to communicate with them politely.how close do you stand when you talk to a friend? you can stand close to people in the middle east but dont stand too close to north americans! give them more personal space.do you know how to touch people correctly? chinese girls often walk arm in arm with their friends. south americans sometimes hold your arm when they talk to you, so you cant move away! but in britain many people dont like other people to touch them at all.do you look at people when you talk? in some places，it isnt polite to look at people when you talk，but in other countries it isnt polite to look somewhere else. in britain and the u. s., people usually look at each other when they talk.and how do you say goodbye? thats easy, wave to say goodbye. but be careful! in greece, its not at all polite. in fact, its very rude.()31.according to the passage, we should give _ more personal space.a. people in the middle eastb. people in north americac. people in south americad. people in north china()32.the underlined word “touch” means“_” in chinese.a. 触碰b.打击c.感动d.震撼()33.we cant wave to say goodbye in_. a. americab. japanc. britain d. greece()34.how many ways are given to communicate with foreign students?a. two. b. three.c. four. d. five.()35.whats the best title of this passage?a. saying goodbyeb. touching peoplec. looking at peopled. communicating politely.词语运用(10分)do you know chinese culture?
