Fix up old things. C. Play fun games. D. Teach English.BWhen you speak to foreigners, what will you do if you cant understand their languages? Will you use your body language to help you, or just say sorry to them and then go away? Learning spoken language is very important, but learning local gestures (手势) is also very necessary.I often use gestures to communicate with someone whose language I dont know. We use our hands to talk with each other. Although we dont understand the others words, our hand movements make our conversation more necessary.However, gestures arent always clear. Different gestures may have different meanings in different countries and cultures.In many countries, people move their hands at someone to call him to come near. In the United States, people usually move hands at someone with their palms (手掌) up and sometimes move just one finger. But in many countries in Asia, hand movements like that would be impolite. In Asia, many people move hands at someone with their palms down using all fingers.Do you use your thumb, your thick short finger to make gestures? In western countries, “thumbs-up” means agreement. But it is very rude in parts of Africa.If you want to say “OK” in America, you can make a circle (圆) with the thumb and the second finger. But in France, it means “zero”, and it is very rude in many other countries.You can use your second finger to point at something but not at somebody in the United States. However, in some parts of Europe, Asia and Africa, pointing at something with ones second finger is not polite.“V” form is often used when people take photos. But using two fingers to make up the “V” shape means “peace” in the West.The last example is that people in parts of Asia point to their noses to mean themselves, but people in western countries usually point to their chests.Gestures are important, but also have different meanings. ( )54. The writer begins with the questions in order to _. A. tell a storyB. solve some problemsC. catch readers attentionD. introduce some gestures( )55. Its OK to _ to call someone to come near by moving just one finger. A. AmericaB. AsiaC. AfricaD. Europe( )56. According to the passage, we can learn that _. A. pointing one finger at someone in the United States is sometimes allowed B. using “thumbs-up” as your body language is very rude in parts of Africa C. making a circle with the thumb and the next finger means “0” in America D. using two fingers to make up the “V” shape means “success” in the West.( )57. The best title of this passage can be “_”. A. Work hard to Learn Different Cultures around the World B. Talk to Other People with Spoken Language Successfully C. Different Gestures Are Difficult to Understand and Learn D. Making Sure Your Gestures Are Saying What You Want to Say CLet me tell you about a young boy who made a model car all on his own. The boy is me, six years ago when I was just 11. The car was small and simple, but in my imagination it was a high-speed racing car, speeding along the race road. It was during the school summer holidays and workmen were building a new driveway and garage(车库) beside our house. It meant to add something new to our home. When I watched the workmen, I came up with an ideaI would build a car to drive into the garage in celebration of it. I told my mother and began with my plans. But I couldnt find the right things for making the car, so I gave up and sadly spent several days doing nothing. My mother noticed that I had stopped working and asked me why. I explained and she suggested that maybe I should change my plan to fit the things I had, rather than give up. And thats just what I did. I found small pieces of wood in my fathers workshop and made my car from anything that was lying around the house. When I found a small engine（发动机） from one of my old model planes, I added that. The power came from a battery(电池) I found in a box. By the time the garage was finished, so was my car. I called my family together outside the house, started the engine and put the car on the driveway. It was fast, and I had to run to the garage to prevent it from hitting the new door. My family began to cheer and I smiled proudly. Thanks to my mother I learned the value of continuing to do things, especially something difficult. Soon I was making plans for my next projecta robot!( )58. The writer was when he made the model car. A. an engineerB. a driverC. a workman D. a student ( )59. To help the writer, his mother . A. explained the plan to him B. brought him to the workshopC. gave him some suggestionsD. found him some pieces of wood( )60. When the car was finished, . A. the writer thanked his fatherB. the family were called togetherC. the writer put it into the house D. the family began a new project( )61. What did the writer mainly tell us？A. Keep on doing things to the end. B. Think hard before doing something. C. Always ask for help when in trouble. D. Try the best to find the right things to do. DIn the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. Theyre not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is different from that in some western countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese persons home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest. My wifes mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesnt smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke?” But dont be surprised if they say “No, you cant smoke here.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host. Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family, she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country.In China, you probably neednt change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected. ( )62. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often . A. buys some fruit B. feels like a godC. wants some gifts D. takes a cup of tea( )63. If the writers guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?A. Its OK if you smoke here. B. Lets smoke together. C. Sorry, you cant smoke here. D. Smoking is a bad habit. ( )64. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?A. think of B. get used to C. look forward to D. pay attention to( )65. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Foreigners should learn from Chinese. B. Hosts must do things in the guests way. C.Western hosts are always nice to guests. D. People should understand cultural differences. 第卷(非选择题 共60分)五、词汇。(本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)A) 请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。66. Tom got the position _( 凭借 )her hard work in the last competition .67.
