英语

阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D)中，选出最佳选项。

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Here are some British etiquette

(礼仪)

and

customs international students ought to know.

Visiting

In most houses in Britain, the doors are usually kept closed. It is

customary to visit people at a pre-arranged time and day. Usually, people are

not comfortable if you just drop in. Nevertheless, if someone says to drop in at

any time, feel free to do so as long as it is not in the middle of the night.

When you go into someone's house, do take your hat off (men only). It is

impolite for men to wear hats indoors especially in churches.

Greeting

In Britain, the handshake is a common form of greeting. When you meet people

for the first time, it is normal to shake hands. A firm handshake is the norm(标

准); there are no issues over gender in Britain. The usual formal greeting is

''How do you do? '' and a firm hand shake, but with a lighter touch between men

and women. In Britain, unlike some other European countries, it is unusual to

embrace or kiss the other person (unless they are family or a very close

friend).

Gifts

During birthday and Christmas celebrations, it is common for the British to

exchange gifts between family members and close friends. The gift doesn’t need

to be expensive, but it should usually show an attempt to find something that is

related to the recipient's(接受者) interests. When invited to someone's home, it

is normal to take along a box of good chocolates, a bottle of good wine or a

bunch of beautiful flowers. Note that gifts are opened when received.

Punctuality

The British are generally punctual(守时的), especially the scots. The

British consider it impolite if you turn up late for an appointment. In most

cases, the people you are meeting will be on time, call even if you will be 5

minutes later than you've promised. If you have been late or fail to keep your

appointment, make an effort to contact the person to let them know. It is a good

idea to telephone and offer your apologies.

1. What do the British men usually do when they meet for the first time?

A. Embrace or kiss each other. B. shake hands firmly.

C. Bring an expensive gift. D. Take off their hats

immediately.

2. What present may the author recommend you if you attend a birthday party in

Britain?

A. A book the receiver is interested in. B. A pet that you think is cute.

C. A red envelope with some money. D. A fantastic and expensive bike.

3. Which of the following may be considered not polite for visiting British

people?

A. Visit them at a scheduled time. B. Show up on time instead of

arriving earlier.

C. Phone to tell them if one will be late. D. Pay an unexpected visit to give

them a surprise.

【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D

When it comes to giving help to developing countries, we often think about

donating money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food

and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important

basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, the traditional way is

far from enough. We need better ideas to help them.

Recently, I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in

developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop

computer, which can run without electricity. He decided to invent this computer

after he visited a school in Cambodia.

The laptop which Mr. Negroponte has designed is a little different from the

normal laptop computers you can buy in the shops. Covered in rubber, this

computer is very strong and won’t be damaged easily. As an electricity supply

can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle

(把手) so that children can wind (摇) the computer up to give it extra power

when needed.

These special laptop computers will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr.

Negroponte wants to build as many as 15 million machines in the first year of

production. The idea is that these computers will help the children’s education

as they will be able to access the Internet.

These computers might not help the people in developing countries

immediately, but by improving children’s education they should help people to

find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.

Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old

mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many
