I’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I
go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I
read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if
we don’t like or understand them.
Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my
parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest
gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.
No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school
work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally
forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as
exciting as watching a movie.
Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and
phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t
exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad
stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!
24. Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one?
A. A love for reading. B. Picture books.
C. Good health. D. A lovable pastime.
25. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.
A. make his parents happy B. finish his school work
C. improve writing and broaden knowledge D. help him understand some movies
26. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.
A. it is bad for our health B. we will soon learn how to write
C. it will help us to have a good rest D. it will soon disappear
27. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Why do I have few friends? B. What are my life habits?
C. Why do I love reading? D. Why do things happen for the best?
C
Body Language in the United States
Most people shake hands and make eye contact when they meet people for the first time. Among
very good friends, a woman may give another woman a little hug, and a man may kiss a woman
quickly on the cheek. Males don't hug one another, which, however, is changing. Men usually shake
hands with the right hand. Sometimes they use the left hand to either cover the handshake or lightly
hold the other person’s arm. This shows greater warmth and friendship. Most people wave hello or
good-bye by extending the palm(手掌) facing outward, and twisting the hand at the wrist. Another
way is to raise the arm, palm outward, and move the whole arm and hand back and forth. This is
important to know because in many other countries,the same movements mean “no”.
When people are waiting in a public place, such as the post office, they usually form lines. Some
people get angry and complain if someone pushes their way into a line or jumps ahead of other
people. Moreover, many women like men to open doors for them. They also like men to give up
their seats on public transportation. However, some women do not like this type of behavior. They
feel that men and women should be treated in the same way.
In the United States, it’s important to make direct eye contact in business and social situations. If
you don’t make eye contact, people will probably think that you are bored or not interested. If there
is silence in these situations, people usually try to make conversation. Periods of silence make many
people uncomfortable. People in the United States usually stand about one arm's length away from
each other while talking or standing together. This space is called “the comfort zone”.
In the United States, mothers sometimes show that they are angry with children by shaking an
index finger(食指) at them. People may show that they like children by patting them on the head.
28.It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that in the United States _______.
A.males begin to hug each other now
B.a man usually kisses a woman for greeting
C.people only use right hands to shake hands
D.people wave good-bye as people in many other countries do
29.Some women don't like to be offered a seat by men because ________.
A.they think sitting is harmful for health
B.they prefer to stand rather than sit
C.they like to be treated equally
D.they don't need men's favor
30.The third paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.body language in public places B.impolite body language
C.the comfort zone D.body language in business and social life
31.In the United States, a mother sometimes shakes an index finger at her kids to show _______.
A.boredom B.anger C.love D.satisfaction
