Sometimes a man brought hundreds in a day.After two weeks there were not many rats in the city, but people still brought rats to the Government officer.

Where might you see the passages above?Aa dictionaryBa novelCa newspaperDa travel guideIt is well-known that there are many cultural differences between China and America. Here are some of them.Visiting ones home.When visiting American homes, the house owners do not like guests to see here and there in their house. While Chinese like to walk around the house and see every room and this often raises a friendly topic to talk about.Giving presents.In America, visitors usually take only a bottle of wine for gift because the host will drink the wine brought by the visitors. If the visitor takes two bottles of wine, it means the visitor thinks that one bottle of wine is not enough for the host. But Chinese people like to send gifts in pairs. First, this is to show that the visitor is not a mean person. Second ,even numbers are seen as good in Chinese culture. When receiving gifts, westerners want you to open the gift in front of him and give some praise. While for Chinese, in order to show that the receiver is a polite person, he should put the gift away quietly and open the gift after the guest leaves.Expressing thanks.Americans are used to saying thanks to family members or friends for their help. However, Chinese people believe that they do not have to say “thank you” to family members or friends as this seems to alienate their relations.38 .

It is the colour of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the colour of most growing plants. Sometimes，the word green means young，fresh and growing. Sometimes，it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished. For example，a green hand is someone who has no experience，who is new to a situation. Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb（拇指）. It comes from early nineteen hundreds. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died. The Green Revolution（革命）is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs. Green is also the colour used to describe such a cling-jealousy（j嫉妒）. The green-eyed monster（怪物）does not come from outer space. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. Your friend may suffer from（忍受. . 的折磨）the green-eyed monster if you get a pay rise and he does not.43 . What does the underlined word “ripe” mean in Paragraph 2？AGrown.BYoung.CNew.DUnknown.44 .
