In different countries, they may meet with different manners. Sometimes they are puzzled by the different manners, and perhaps they may make a joke about those manners. So when we go to a strange country, we should pay attention to something new or dissimilar. For example, most Westerners are not concerned about protocol(礼仪) in social matters. But there are a few table manners the Easterners should try to observe(遵守)at all times. To start with, put the napkin on your lap. It protects your clothes from food or is used to wipe your hands or mouth when necessary.Hold the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left hand, and cut the meat or fish into pieces as you eat. Always use your fork to put food into your mouth. Use your spoon only for soup or other liquids. Do not put your own utensils (fork, knife, spoon) into the serving bowl. Use the utensil in the bowl to put some of the food on your own plate. And then return the serving utensil to the bowl. Do not spit food anywhere. If you have hones in your mouth, take them out with your fingers and place them on the edge of your plate, never on the table or floor.Do not reach across the table or in front of another person. Ask someone to pass whatever you want.Do not sneeze, cough or blow your nose anywhere except into a handkerchief or Kleenex (纸巾). Then you throw it into a waste paper basket or garbage can. If you cough, try to cover your mouth with your hand. （1）The Easterners usually pay attention to in social matters. A . table mannersB . how to walkC . how to use a serving bowlD . how to use a utensil（2）Put the napkin on your lap. Here the word lap means . A . a racetrackB . the front part of a seated person between the waist and the kneesC . a suit of clothesD . handkerchief（3）Hold the knife in your_ hand and the fork in your_ hand.

Most dog or child problems I meet involve children under six years old. If your children are under six, you should invest a great deal of time and thoughts before choosing a new dog. Large guard dogs or dogs which have a history of being aggressive(好斗的) or biting should be avoided. Large and high-energy dogs that can knock children over would not be good choices either. Instead, parents should consider the little gentle dogs.Parents with little children are usually very busy. They often do not have free time or desire to spend hours cleaning or walking a dog. In fact, a dog requires almost as much time as a child does. So ask yourself if you are ready to keep a dog when you are already very busy. As a veterinarian, many of the problems I meet are caused by the excuses like the dog would be good for the kids or the children begged for one, but the parents do not really want a dog. If the parents cannot completely care for or train the dog, then I usually stop them from keeping a dog, otherwise it is not fair to the dog.（1）According to the writer, most dog or child problems happen to children who are . A . under 6 years oldB . from 6 to 8 years oldC . under 10 years oldD . over 12 years old（2）Which kind of dog might be suitable for children under 6? A . Large guard dogs.B . Large and high-energy dogs.C . Large aggressive dogs.D . Little gentle dogs.（3）From the passage, we can know that the writer is a(n) .A . reporterB . animal doctorC . expertD . teacher（4）The writer thinks that it is unfair if .A . parents dont raise a dog for their childrenB . children are not allowed to walk the dogC . a mother with young kids needs to walk the dogD . parents keep a pet dog but dont care for it well16. （6分）根据文章判断下列句子正确错误 If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down. They have to remember days, names so their memory is the whole time being exercised.So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.（1）The main reason for ones poor memory is that his parents have poor memories. （2）If you dont use your arms or legs for some time, they will become strong. （3）A good memory comes from more practice. （4）Some people cant read or write, so they have bad memories. （5）The best title of this passage is “How to Have a Good Memory”. 17. （8分）阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet.

These letters are written in different languages and sent from all over the world.The tradition of sending letters to Juliet dates back to centuries ago. At first, people left notes on a local landmark said to be Juliets tomb（坟墓）. Later, they started to send letters to the town.To deal with these letters, the Juliet Club was set up in 1972.The staff of the Juliet Club are volunteers who call themselves “Juliets secretary.” They can be students, couples and even grandmothers. They can read letters in many languages.These people take their work seriously. They use their own experiences to reply. When there is a letter difficult to reply to, they will discuss it with each other to give the best answer. Thanks to them, every letter is read, translated and answered by hand in the name of Juliet.The Juliet Club has been dealing with Juliets letters fo
