Do not give even numbers of flowers as a gift in Russia because thats for dead people. Odd numbers of flowers are given for happy occasions, like one, three, five or seven flowers.Just go with itWhen it comes to humor, people in some countries warned visitors not to take it too seriously. Mexico is such a place where people like to laugh at others. The best family dinners are the ones where everyone is laughing out loud at making fun of someone at the table. They dont mean to harm. They just do it for fun. So visitors should feel accepted not offended.Keep it downIn some countries, you should be careful about your volume. In France, a loud tone of voice, particularly in a one-to-one conversation, can be rude. French use different volumes for different situations. In a caf, you cant overhear a discussion at the nearest table, even if it is only two or three feet away. So when you are in France, try to keep your voice down in most public places.Hands offIn some Southeast Asian countries, such as Thailand and Malaysia, never touch anyones head or pass anything from above the head. Head is considered to be the most sacred body part. Such touch is not good even in informal situations.21. According to the text, which of the following things you should not do in Thailand?A. Giving even numbers of flowers B. Talking in a very loud voiceC. Passing anything from above the head D. Laughing out loud at making fun of someone at the table22.

C This morning I drove about an hour with my wife to spend the weekend with my mom who lives in the countryside. However, when I arrived, she was not at home. So I decided to hang out with our old neighbor, Mr Brown, who is an amazing woodworker. When I found him, he was building a small table in his workshop.I spent about forty-five minutes talking with him. During that period of time, I also helped him do some simple work. I found he had all kinds of tools in the workshop. It was those tools that helped him to create beautiful pieces of furniture. Tools used by professionals can serve the purposes of easing the work process or helping beautify the results. More than likely weve made use of tools to improve the crafting and complete projects. Were all grateful for calculators, computers, and smart phones for the convenience they offer. Along with these devices, I thought about the various methods and skills Ive learned and integrated(融入) into my daily life over the years. If there is a specific aspect of your life that you cannot overcome, perhaps you just need a tool or practice to shift the energy to produce much-needed power. If youre struggling with weight issues, or financial problems, there are some practical energetic applications you can learn. These spiritual tools can increase your ability. Choose alternate thoughts，actions, and solutions. Remember these are available. Give you an idea of how easy some of these practices are. My ten-year-old daughter uses them at least three times a day. For example when tension arises within her friendship circle or if she needs to remember an answer for a test, she opens her one small box of candies and calls upon them for assistance. With these tools, she becomes smart to create change and achieve better results. 27. Why did the author go to the countryside?A. To have a short trip.B. To pay his mother a visit.C. To have a talk with an old neighbor.D. To learn to make furniture from a woodworker. 28. According to the author, what made Mr Brown create beautiful furniture?A. His special talents. B. The assistance of his tools.C. He authors timely help.D. The cooperation with others.29. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The achievements of science. B. The convenience of modern life. C. The benefits of applying technology to life.D. The importance of tools and devices.30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Life is full of various challenges. B. We should overcome our own limitations.C. Spiritual tools can help us to handle difficulties. D. Our abilities to solve problems are different.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项）As children grow up, they will likely be drawn to participate in sports.
