Nobody knows exactly when the practice started in Europe. It is said that long long ago in Europe when people met, they showed their unarmed (无武器的) hands to each other as a sign of goodwill. As time went on and trade in cities grew rapidly, people in cities began to clap each others hands to make a deal or to reach an agreement. This practice was later changed into shaking hands among friends on meeting or leaving each other. “Lets shake (hands) on it” sometimes means an agreement was reached.Do the Europeans shake hands wherever they go and with whomever they meet? No. Sometimes the Chinese abroad reach out their hands too often to be polite. It is really very impolite to give your hand when the other party, especially when it is a woman, shows little interest in shaking hands with you and when the meeting does not mean anything to him or her. Even if, for politeness, he holds out his unwilling hand in answer to your uninvited hand, just touch it slightly. There is generally a misunderstanding (误解) among the Chinese that westerners are usually open and straightforward, while the Chinese are rather reserved (保守的) in manner. But in fact some people in western countries are more reserved than some Chinese today. So it is a good idea to shake hands with a westerner only when he shows interest in further relations with you.46.In the old days in Europe, people put out their unarmed hands to each other _.A. to make a deal B. to greet each otherC. to show friendliness D. to reach an agreement47.The first paragraph mainly tells us _.A. where handshaking was first practisedB. how handshaking came aboutC. about the relationship between handshaking and trade D. about the practice of handshaking both in Europe and in China48.According to the text, which of the following statements is true?A. Westerners are more reserved than the Chinese.B. Westerners are unwilling to shake hands.C. We should make a judgement before shaking hands.D. We shouldnt shake hands with European women.49. The main purpose of the text is _.A. to tell us some differences between the East and the WestB. to offer us some important facts about handshakingC. to introduce us to some different customs in the WestD. to give us some advice before we travel abroadBThree men traveling on a train began a conversation about the worlds greatest wonders.“In my opinion,” the first man said, “the Egyptian pyramids are the worlds greatest wonder. Although they were built thousands of years ago, they are still standing. And remember: the people who built them had only simple tools. They did not have the kind of machinery that builders and engineers have today.”“I agree that the Egyptian pyramids are wonderful,” the second man said, “but I do not think they are the greatest wonder. I believe computers are more wonderful than the pyramids. They have taken people to the moon and brought them back safely. They carry out mathematical calculations in seconds that would take a person a hundred years to do.”He turned to the third man and asked, “What do you think is the greatest wonder in the world?” The third man thought for a long time, and then he said, “Well, I agree that the pyramids are wonderful, and I agree that computers are wonderful, too. However, in my opinion, the most wonderful thing in the world is this thermos (a bottle with two thin glass walls, used to keep liquids either hot or cold).” And he took a thermos out of his bag and held it up.The other two men were very surprised. “A thermos!” they shouted. “But thats a simple thing.”“Oh no, its not,” the third man said. “In the winter you put in a hot drink and it stays hot. In the summer you put in a cold drink and it stays cold. How does the thermos know whether it is winter or summer?”50. What are the three men talking about on a train?A. They are talking about the service on the train.B. They are talking about something wonderful.C. They are talking about Egyptian pyramids.D. They are talking about modern computers.51. The first man thought the Egyptian pyramids are the worlds greatest wonder mainly because _.A. they were built thousands of years ago B. they are still standing nowC. the people who built them had only simple toolsD. the builders and engineers were the greatest in the world52. The third man thought the thermos was the most wonderful thing in the world because _.A. he felt puzzled how a thermos worked.B. the thermos was more important than pyramids.C. the thermos was more useful than computers.D. he could put in hot or cold drinks in it.53. Whats the best title for this passage?A. Three Men Traveling on a Train B. The Worlds Greatest Wonder, Egyptian PyramidsC. Pyramids, Computers and ThermosD. The Worlds Greatest WondersC When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left，they asked me about how to find accommodation（住所）. I suggested that they should stay at “bed and breakfast” houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories. “We didnt stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said. “Because we found that most families were away on holiday.” I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, andthey thought “VACANCIES” meant “holidays” because the Spanish word for “holiday” is “vacations”. So they did not go to houses where the sign outside said “VACANCIES”, which in English meant there are free rooms. Then my friends went to houses where the sign said “NO VACANCIES”, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels！ We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, a word very similar to “DIVERSION” means fun. In English it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word “DIVERSION” on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole. English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that “Thank you” in French means “No, thank you”. 54. I suggested that they stay at “bed and breakfast” houses because _.A. they would be able to practise their English B. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels C. it would be convenient for them to have dinner D. there would be no problem about finding accommodation 55. “No vacancies” in English means _. A. no free rooms B. free roomsC. not away on holiday D. holidays 56. If you see a road sign that says “Diversion”, you will _ A. fall into a hole B. have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself C. find that the road is blocked by people D. have to take a different road 57. I was surprised when the coffee pot was taken away because I _. A. hadnt finished drinking my coffee B. was expecting another cup of coffee C. meant that I didnt want any more D. was never misunderstood D If you want to be a success, study at the University of Waikato is right for you.
