Here is a story to help you.Once a bird lived unhappily. So it traveled far away to look for its happiness.It flew and flew. Suddenly it saw a spider climbing up a wall.

Do you drop it on the ground? Or, do you do the right thing and drop it in a trash can? Hopefully, you drop it in the trash can because, besides harming the environment, littering is also very impolite.Recently, a magazine published a list of the most polite cities in the world. They looked three things: did people litter, did shop clerks say thank you and did people hold the door open for the person behind them? The top three politest cities were New York, USA, Zurich, Switzerland, and Toronto, Canada. Hong Kong, China was number 35. Shanghai wasnt even on the list.Does that mean that Shanghai is not apolite city? Well, maybe. There are different ways to judge(判断) politeness but the survey was looking at how a visitor to a city would feel when walking around its public places. Visitors dont like to step over empty tea boxes as they walk down the street. They dont like it when they buy something and the shop clerk doesnt say thank you or even give them a smile. They also dont like it when someone lets a door slam(砰然关上) into them instead of holding it open.Shanghai is a nice city but it is not always the most polite city. I dont think this is intentional(有意的). I think its just a lack of awareness(缺乏意识). China is becoming a popular place for tourists to visit. When they come to Shanghai they will find a friendly city: it would be nice if they also found apolite one. And, remember, being polite makes you feel good, too. Its nice to be nice.（1）The following cities EXCEPT _ are on the list of the most polite cities in the world.A . ShanghaiB . TorontoC . New YorkD . Zurich（2）How many cities are mentioned in this passage?A . Four.B . Five.C . Six.D . Seven.（3）Why is Shanghai not always the most polite city in the survey?A . Because people there dont realize the importance of politeness.B . Because people there are not friendly enoughC . Because the food there is not delicious.D . Because the city is too old.（4）In the survey, it is looked to be impolite _.A . to give visitors a smileB . to drop tea boxes into the trash canC . to say thank you to visitorsD . to hold the door closed for visitors（5）The writer mainly wants to tell us _.A . not to drink tea in the streetB . to hold the door open for anybodyC . to remember to be polite in public placesD . to travel to the most polite cities more often20. （8分） Baboons(狒狒) live in Africa.
