For example, the Japanese will say to travelers: “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat, and in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.” People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They dont know. Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say: “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I dont know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!41. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually_.

Its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly. C. People have similar understanding of politeness. D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.B The Internet is not perfect. There are many problems with it. The Internet is not organized. There is no one in charge of the Internet. It is sometimes difficult to find what you are looking for. It is also easy to get the wrong information on the “Net”. Some businessmen cheat people on the Internet. Internet thieves can steal credit card numbers. Some advertisers send spam to e-mail boxes. E-mail boxes are often filled with these unwanted advertisements. Illegal (非法的) businesses can operate on the Internet. These businesses sell X-rated materials, cigarettes and alcohol to teenagers. The Internet has websites with information about making bombs, breaking the law and terrorism. Criminals can fool people, especially children, in chat rooms. They can spread poisonous information and attack new members. The Internet is the greatest advance in communication since human emerged. But it can also be like a dark alley in a dangerous part of town. Parents need to set parental controls on their children when they use the Internet. This will keep some of the bad materials away from their children. The Internet can be dangerous to computers, too. Some people who have evil intentions enjoy causing problems for other people they dont even know. They create computer viruses. A computer can get viruses by downloading a program that has a virus in it. Some viruses come by e-mail. A virus can destroy the data a person has saved in computer files.

Generally, people make friends with whom they share similar thoughts and ideas. The meaning of friendship changes with age. Childhood friends have a lot in common with you, who seem to know what you want to say even when you are not saying anything. They seem to read your mind whenever you are unhappy. They know you inside out as they have grown up with you and have known every step and move you take. You attract each other and become friends with each other. Sometimes your childhood friends are a better judge of situations as they know you so well. You should treasure your friends. As Robert Louis Stevenson has said that a friend is a gift you give yourself. Nowadays as the world becomes smaller, stronger friendship develops over the Internet. Earlier people were more familiar with pen friends, Pen friends generally keep in touch through letters. They generally live in different cities, or countries. But now people have faster ways of communication and use the Internet for friendship. Friendship over the Internet or through letters can be risky at times as the real identity of the people is often unknown. It is true that you are luck if you have friends in your life. Friendship is a delicate ye strong relationship, so you have to do something to keep it healthy and growing. Dont take a friend for granted as that is the biggest mistake you can make. Never let down your friends. Even though it may be difficult at times, try to stay beside your friends through thick and thin.53. According to the passage, childhood friends are special because_.
