People make deserts BBefore you go to another country, it is a great help if you know the language and some of the customs(风俗) of the country.When people meet each other for the first time in Britain, they say “How do you do?” and shake hands(握手). Usually they do not shake hands when they just meet or say goodbye. But they shake hands after they havent met for a long time or when they will be away from each other for a long time.Last year a group of German students went to England for a holiday. Their teacher told them that the English people hardly shake hands. So when they met their English friends at the station, they kept their hands behind their backs. The English students had learned that Germans shake hands as often as possible, so they put their hands in front and got ready to shake hands with them. It made both of them laugh.60.

This story is about .A. shaking hands B. languages C. customs D. languages and customsCA young woman was driving through the lonely countryside. It was dark and raining. Suddenly she saw an old woman by the side of the road, holding her hand out as if she wanted a lift.“I cant leave her out in this weather,” the woman said to herself, so she stopped the car and opened the door.“Do you want a lift?” she asked. The old woman nodded and climbed into the car. After a while, she said to the old woman, “Have you been waiting for a long time?” The old woman shook her head. “Strange,” thought the young woman. She tried again. “Bad weather for the time of year,” she said. The old woman nodded. No matter what she said, the hitchhiker (搭便车的人) gave no answer except for a nod of the head or a shrug. Then the young woman noticed the hitchhikers hands which were large and hairy.Suddenly she realized that the hitchhiker was actually a man! She stopped the car. “I cant see out of the rear screen,” she said. “Would you mind clearing it for me?”The hitchhiker nodded and opened the door. As soon as the hitchhiker was out of the car, the terrified young woman raced off.When she got to the next village she pulled up. She noticed that the hitchhiker had left his handbag behind. She picked it up and opened it. She gave a gasp inside the bag was a gun.64. The young woman stopped the car because _.

What might the man be?A. a policemanB. a soldierC. a robberD. an actor DMany people believe that Americans love their cars almost more than anything else. It may be true. From the time youngsters (小孩) become fourteen years old they are likely to dream of having their own cars. Many young people work after school during their 1st year of high school in order to buy a car. Learning to drive and getting a drivers license (执照) may be one of the most exciting times of a young persons life. People who almost never go to a doctor when they are sick will take their cars to a repairman at the first sign of a problem. Those who dont like to work around the home on Saturdays may devote most of that day to washing and waxing (打蜡) their cars. For some families it is not enough to have one car. They often have two or three-one for work and one for recreation (娱乐). Many men and women in the United States need to have a car. Many need a car to go to work. Housewives need a car to go shopping or to take the children to school or other activities. In most states young people learn to drive in high school, where driver training is one of the most popular courses. At the end of the course the student must take a driving test to get a license. For many, the piece of paper is an important symbol (象征) that they are now grown-ups.68 The main idea of this article is that . A. the American people love nothing in the world but cars B. cars are very important and useful to the American people C. the American people cant live without cars in their lives D. Americans are very proud of owning cars69. Which of the following is not true? A. Boys and girls have a strong wish to have their own cars. B. Some families need more than two cars. C. Some housewives have to drive their children to school. D. All of the Americans need a car of their own.70. In the United States, if a person wants to drive, . A. he ought to be over fourteen years old B. He has to pass a test and get a license C. he should be old enough to get a license D. he must take a driving course71. From the article, we can conclude that in America . A. people who have cars never go to see the doctor B. having a car means being very rich C. the young people are more anxious to have a car than the others are D. some Americans think more of their cars than other thingsEWhen you cough or sneeze, youd better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (细菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through. After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go a long way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others. Once theyve been told, theyre halfway there. When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood
