A the acting B.the art C.the film D.the music B The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student in English “ You speak very good English”. But the student answered, “No, no. My English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “ Yes, indeed, you speak very well.” But the Chinese student still kept saying “ No”. In the end the foreigner gave up and didnt know what to say.What is wrong with the students answer? It is because he didnt accept a compliment as the English people do. He should have said “Thank you” instead of “ No”. He actually understand what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said “Thank you”, that would mean he was too proud. According to the Western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say “Thank you”. If someone says to a woman “ You look so beautiful with the new clothes on”, she should be very happy and answer “Thank you”. In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad thing. But in the West, if you are modest and say “ No, Im afraid I cant do it well”, then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say “ No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by others. If asking for a job, one says something like “ Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try on the job”, he or she will expect to get it. So in the West, one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competitions is quite keen.( ) 1. Why was the American surprised at the Chinese students answer?A. Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.B. Because he wouldnt like others to say “ No”.C. Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.D. Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the Western countries.( ) 2. As the student kept saying “ No”, the American _. A. became disappointed B. got angry C. lost interest D. could not continue the talk because he really didnt know what else he could say. ( ) 3. According to the Western culture, if one is given a compliment he or she should say “_”. A. Pardon B. Excuse me C. Yes, thanks a lot D. Thank you( ) 4. Why does a man in the West who asks for a job say something like “ Yes, I can certainly do it”? A.Because he is not modest. B. Because he should give an impression that hes just fit for the job in order to get the job. C. Because he could do nothing but speak that way. D.Because he just wanted to have a try.( ) 5. What does the passage tell us?A. The Chinese people are modest while the Westerners are confident.B.Confidence is more important than modestyC.How to accept compliments given by Westerners. D.About the Western culture(C)Joe Biggs was a butcher (屠夫). His shop was in a village in one of the most beautiful parts of southern England . He worked in it for many years while his father was there. Then, when his father reached the age of 65, he stopped working in the shop. Joe was alone in it, so he had to work harder.

He had sold all the rest earlier in the day. He took the piece out and said to the woman. “This is 7.15.” “That piece is too small,” the woman answered. “Havent you got anything bigger?” Joe went into the room behind his shop, opened the refrigerator, put the piece of meat into it, took it out again and shut the door of the refrigerator with a lot of noise. Then he brought the piece of meat back to the woman and said, “This piece is bigger and more expensive. Its 9.30.” “Good,” the woman answered with a smile. “give me both of them, please.” 6.

The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng， Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The worlds largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve（自然保护区） is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world， but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands. The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine， too. They are really good places for wildlife（野生生物）。 Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife. Luckily， more and more people are beginning to realize the important of wetlands and wildlife. Every year， on February 2nd， m
