    Even nowadays there is a lot of misunderstanding between nationalities. Let's have a look at what the following people have to say.

    Maria Conti: I find the English people insincere, cold and unfriendly. They keep saying "Thank you", "I'm sorry" even when they don't know each other. They are even polite to their own relatives. Except for helping you find your way in the streets, they aren't really friendly and never invite you to their houses.

    Giannis Stinios: On the contrary I found them broad-minded and friendly.I was invited to people's houses and they all showed great interest in my ideas,Greek life and people.In England I learned that it was possible to be warm, friendly and polite at the same time.

    Judy Brown: I lived in both Italy and Greece for a few years.At first there were a few misunderstandings between my foreign friends and myself. For example, I once gave a Greek friend a present for her birthday party.I was rather sorry that she did not unwrap it immediately. What's more, she even didn't thank me until I asked her if she liked it.I've learned from different experiences that a lot of foreigners find our attitude to what we English people call politeness rather insincere. They feel that politeness isn't necessary between friends.

    1.According to Maria Conti, it is ________.

    A. insincere to keep saying "Thank you" and "I'm sorry"

    B. necessary for relatives to be polite to each other

    The Simple Technique That Could Save Cyclists' Lives

    It's called the Dutch Reach, and if a Massachusetts doctor has his way, it could prevent road riders 1.ever getting doored again.

    Last year, some 45,000 bicyclists were injured on the road, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. And ten percent of those 2.(injury)were the direct result of the rider getting doored: a supremely terrifying, 3.(pain)collision where a driver opens his door immediately in front of a cyclist.

    Michael Charney, a 70-year-old 4.(retire) doctor from Cambridge, Massachusetts, is spearheading a grassroots campaign to end dooring forever. The campaign promotes the Dutch Reach—a technique where a driver reaches over with his right hand to open the car door, 5.(force) him to turn his body, look over his shoulder—and 6.(hopeful) see any oncoming cyclists.

    The name 7.(inspire)by the bike-friendly Netherlands, where drivers are required in their driving exams to open car doors with their right hands. Charney hopes this potentially life-saving technique will be adopted in the U.S. It’s already picking up some de facto (实际存在的)steam; there’s now a sign at an intersection in Cambridge 8.a cyclist was killed last year by a car door that reads, “Safer to open car door with far hand.”

    “It’s simple, it’s obvious, 9.it costs nothing” Charney told The Boston Globe. “People just have to switch from one thoughtless habit to another thoughtless habit –but the 10.(two) one is safer.”

    Enjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater.These days,musicians are performing in private homes,at haircutting shops,at airports...even on ferry boats.

    Musicians like house concerts.At music clubs,they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol.People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.

    Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O' Hair Salon,Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials.Then,they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space.The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon,near the hair dryers and make-up table.

    "This is our first show at a hair salon,"Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week's performance.Frank said she and band members Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time "interacting" with the audience.

    Concerts in people's homes,or small businesses such as O' Hair's,are becoming more popular,musicians say. "There is a more relaxed atmosphere,"said Domenic Cicala,a musician who opened up his O' Hair Salon to concerts. "People really get to know the artists."

    At house concerts,people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers.Often,the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.

    "People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend,"said Matt Hart,with Aubrey Zoli making up Local Strangers,a folk-rock group based in Seattle.At many such concerts,the musicians do not need microphones. Yet,every word of their songs can be heard.

    1.Why do musicians like house concerts?

    A. Because private homes are easier to get to.

    B. Because people pay more attention to their music.

    C. Because they can do other things while performing.

    D. Because they don't have to bring their microphones.

    2.What impressed Sarah Frank most at her last week's performance?

    A. The small performance space. B. Her first show at a hair salon.

    C. Their "interacting" with the audience. D. The more relaxed atmosphere.

    3.How many music groups are mentioned in the text?

    A. One. B. Two.

    C. Three. D. Four.

    4.What may be the best title for the text?

    A. Musicians struggle to make a living

    B. People really get to know the artists

    C. Musicians find new places to perform

    D. Concertgoers won't go to music clubs

    One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Street, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks．Why I wished to buy only one pair was unimportant．I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward, "What can 1 do for you, sir?"

I had no idea of that, as my entrance had been accidental．"Come with me," said the boy, eagerly．1 followed him to the back of the shop, and he began to pull down from the shelves box after box showing their contents for my choice．

    "Hold on, lad, I am going to buy only one pair!" "1 know that," said he, "but I want you to see how beautiful these are．Aren't they wonderful!" There was on his face an expression of seriousness and pride and delight as if he were showing to me the secrets of his religion．I became far more interested in him than in the socks．I looked at him in amazement．"My friend," said I, "if you can keep this up, if this is not merely from having a new job, if you can keep up this high spirit and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United States．"
