阅读理解

　　Arabs consider it extremely(非常地)bad manners to start talking business immediately．Even the busiest government official or executive(经理主管人员)always takes extra time to be polite and offer refreshments．No matter how busy you are, you should make time for his hospitality(好客)．

　　The conference is a way of doing business throughout the Arab world．Frequently, you will have to discuss your business in the presence of strangers, who may or may not have anything to do with your business．Do not be surprised if your meeting is interrupted several times by people who come into the room unannounced, whisper, or speak softly to the person with whom you are talking, and leave．Act as though you do not hear, and never show displeasure at being interrupted．

　　Making decisions quickly is not an Arab custom．There is vagueness(含糊)in doing business in the Middle East, which will puzzle a newcomer．Give yourself lots of time and ask lots of questions．

　　When an Arab says yes, he may mean“maybe”．When he says maybe, he probably means“no”．You will seldom get a direct“no”from an Arab because it is considered impolite．Instead of“no”, he may say“inhallah”, which means“if God is willing”．On the other hand,“yes”doesn't necessarily mean“yes”．A smile and a slow nod might seem like an agreement, but in fact, your host is being polite．An Arab considers it impolite to disagree with a guest．

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

注意：每个空格只填1个单词。

　　In the deserts of North Africa and Saudi Arabia lives the smallest of all foxes with the largest of ears．This animal is the fennec fox．

　　Fennec foxes have ears that are 5 to 6 inches long．That's big for an animal that weighs less than four pounds．Their ears help shed(去除)body heat．And, as you may have guessed, they also provide great hearing．

　　It's also interesting to think about the hair of fennec foxes．Why would a fox that lives in the desert need a thick, fur coat? Actually, the desert isn't always warm．During the nighttime, a desert can be terribly cold! A fennec fox's fur keeps them warm during those desert nights．They also have long bushy tails that they use as a blanket．And the hair on their feet protects them from the hot sand in the daytime．

　　Fennec foxes live in small communities of dens(兽穴)．They spend most of the day sleeping in their dens, out of the hot sun．Then, when night comes, they come out in search of food．In addition to their great hearing, fennecs also use their great sense of smell and big eyes to track down dinner．

　　Like other foxes, fennecs are omnivores．This means they eat both meat and plants．They like eating birds, eggs, insects, snails, fruit and leaves best．

　　Fennec fox mothers have one to five babies at a time．The lifespan of a fennec fox is 10 to 12 years．The cream coloration of fennec foxes help them blend into their desert habitat．Still, they have to watch out for predators(捕食性动物)．These include caracals(a type of wild cat), jackals, eagle owls, hyenas and humans．Humans catch them for their fur and to sell as pets．

　　Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world．An Arab traveler in the year 900 wrote that it was played“long long ago”．Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400．The name“chess”is interesting．When one player is attacking the other's king, he says, in English,“chess”．When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says“check mate(将死)”．These words come from Persian(波斯语)．It means“the king is dead”．That is when the game is over, and one player has won．

　　Such an old game changes very slowly．The rules have not always been the same as they are now．For example, at one time the queen could only move one square(方块) at a time．Now she is the strongest piece on the board．It would be interesting to know why this has happened!Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people．You don't have to be a winner in order to enjoy it．It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table．The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio．Some people are able to play many people at the same time．One man played 400 games!It is said that some people play chess by post．This must make chess the slowest game in the world．
