About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what the trouble was about. The three foreigners seemed all at sea and looked embarrassed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus — the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.‎ Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well if he/she knows that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will probably leave you thirsty.‎ At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.‎ In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could cause trouble. Also, you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult — it's just not done in Thailand.‎ ‎1．The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way because the gentlemen ________.‎ A. were foreigners B. didn't have tickets C. made a loud noise D. didn't line up for the bus ‎2．According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country，you should ________.‎ A. learn the language of the country B. understand the manners and customs of the country C. have enough time and money D. make friends with the people there ‎3．In India it is considered impolite ________.‎ A. to use the right hand for passing food at table B. to pass food with the left hand C. to eat food with your hands D. to help yourself at table ‎4．The best title for this article is ________.‎ A. People's Everyday Life B. Mind Your Manners C. Shaking and Nodding Head D. Taking a Bus in England B ‎"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(喘气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.‎ Time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. It was only his appearance that was imperfect. When he rushed home from school one day and threw himself into his mother’s arms, she sighed, knowing that his life was to be unfortunate. He cried out the tragedy, A boy, a big boy… called me a freak(怪人).‎ He grew up, handsome. A favourite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music. “But you might communicate with other young people,” his mother blamed him, but he felt a kindness in her heart.‎ Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You’re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But it’s a secret.” The operation was a brilliant success, and a new person emerged.‎ Later he married and entered the diplomatic service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave me the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.” “ I do not believe you could,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know… not yet.”‎ The years kept their secret, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket, Slowly. Tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears ‎“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut,” his father whispered, gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they?”‎ ‎5．Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?‎ A. Because her son had a tiny face.‎ B. Because she saw her son crying C. Because her son was born imperfect D. Because her son was in her arms ‎6．Which word can describe Mother’s feeling when the son threw himself into her arms?‎ A. Nervous B. Sympathetic C. Proud D. Angry ‎7．Who gave the son the ears?‎ A. A doctor B. His father C. His mother D. A stranger ‎8．The underlined word “reveal” in the last but one paragraph means “_______”‎ A. see B. show C. find D. search C At times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing these qualities in me. For example，when I was 12，I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico（波多黎各），to always put on sunscreen（防晒霜），not to wander away from my grandmother，and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.‎ ‎ But despite（尽管）her worries，she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens，she continued to give me space to grow and learn，even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year，I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers（同龄人)：While many of them wanted to stay close to home，I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away，she was supportive and excited for me.‎ ‎ One big thing I realized during my senior year，as my mom granted（允许） me more freedom，was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life，and especially when I was little，the main person I tried to impress in my schoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards: getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have all A’s.‎ ‎ I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important, like education，and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life. Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.‎ ‎9．When the author decided to go to Puerto Rico，his mother________.‎ A. didn’t allow him to do so B. wanted to go with him C. worried about his safety D. asked his grandmother for advice ‎10．Why did the author decide to move away for college?‎ A.

His good relationship with his mother D Glenn was born on July 18,1921, in Cambridge and grew up in nearby New Concord, Ohio. He started his flying career as a fighter pilot(飞行员). Later, Glenn took a dangerous job as a test pilot, flying new planes to see if they were safe.‎ In the late 1950s, a “space race” began between the U. S. and the Soviet Union. Both countries wanted to be the first to send a human into space, including to the moon. In 1961, a Russian astronaut, Yuri Gagarin, orbited Earth. But the space race was not over yet. Glenn’s chance to go into space came on February 20, 1962. By that time, another American, Alan B. Shepard, had flown in space, but he had not orbited Earth. Glenn’s flight was aired live on television and radio. Americans everywhere stopped to watch.‎ Glenn’s Friendship 7 capsule circled the planet three times. A faulty equipment led Glenn to believe the capsule might burn up on its return to Earth, but in the end it splashed down safely in the Atlantic Ocean. He became the first American to orbit Earth in a spaceship.‎ In 1984, Glenn ran for president, but he did not get enough support and dropped out of the race. Glenn returned to space on October 29, 1998, when he was 77. He spent nine days on the space shuttle Discovery. Glenn went so that scientists could test the effects of space travel on older people. He holds the record for being the oldest person in space. Glenn died Thursday, Dec, 8,2016, at the age of 95.‎ Glenn refused to see himself as a hero. He preferred to focus on his work, saying. “If there is one thing I’ve learned in my years on this planet, it’s that the happiest people I’ve known are those who devoted themselves to something bigger and more meaningful than merely their own self-interest.”‎ ‎13．What do we know about John Glenn?‎ A.

But how can you protect yourselves when shopping online?‎ ‎71． It should be protected by up-to-date anti-virus software, and you should also install a personal firewall, which will stop hackers attacking your system. Check that your firewall is open before you start shopping, and when you finish, be sure to log out.‎ Take a minute to look at the website before you buy anything. Check that the company has a geographical address as well as a telephone number. 72．‎ Sellers should have a list of all your rights somewhere on their website, and you need to read this before you decide to shop there. 73． As a general rule, online companies usually give their customers seven days to cancel their order if they change their minds about their purchase.‎ ‎74． It is a lock-shaped symbol and you can find it on the browser bar (浏览器栏) at the bottom of the screen.
