    A fellow speaker from California named Geri flew to Japan, in her favorite jeans and a casual jacket, to give her first speech. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards, and put them into her jeans pocket quickly.
    When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅). While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly opened. She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, it’s beautiful!”
    At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately. Poor Geri was left astonished. What did she do wrong?
    Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe. Even if you’re coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet c1ients (客人) casually dressed. The second mistake was Geri’s handling of their business cards rudely. In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools. It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both hands. However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly. In Japan, people use business cards as a conversation starter. You chat about each other’s cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safekeeping. Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.
    Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of her clients. In a land where saving face is critical, it would be embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received. What is worse, Geri hadn’t even given them a gift!
    小题1:In the four Japanese gentlemen’s eyes, Geri took their cards _____________.
    A．excitedlyB．embarrassinglyC．politelyD．disrespectfully
    小题2:Why did the four Japanese gentlemen leave Geri suddenly?
    A．Because they couldn’t bear Geri’s behavior any longer.
    B．Because they had finished the task.
    C．Because Geri had something more important to do.
    D．Because Geri felt embarrassed.
    小题3:What does the underlined word “gaffe” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
    A．ignoranceB．sadnessC．mistakeD．carelessness
    小题4:The third mistake Geri made was that she _____________.
    A．used her own card as a conversation starter
    B．took her clients’ cards with one hand
    C．kept her clients’ cards in a wrong place
    D．met her clients in jeans
    小题5:What lesson can we draw from this story?
    A．Honesty is the best policy.
    B．Think twice before you take any action.
    C．When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
    D．Don't claim to know what you don't know.

    While small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.
    The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small, shower heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.
    But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.
    “The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, so even a king-size bed at 6′6″ (6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25% of men, while the standard 6′3″ bed caters for less than half of the male population.” Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”
    Similarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.
    Some have already taken note, however. At Queens Moat Houses′ Caledoman Hotel in Edinburgh, 6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.
    小题1:What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?
    A．To provide better services.
    B．To rebuild hotels and restaurants.
    C．To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.
    D．To attract more people to become its members.
    小题2:Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?
    A．7′2″.B．7′C．6′6″D．6′3″
    小题3:What may happen to restaurants with small tables?
    A．They may lose some customers.
    B．They may start businesses elsewhere.
    C．They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.
    D．They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.
    小题4:What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?
    A．Tall people pay more for larger beds.
    B．6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds.
    C．Special rooms are kept for Americans.
    D．Guest rooms are standardized.

    As you climb into the hill country, the roads get dustier and rougher, and fewer cars can be seen. Phonxay is one of the poorest districts of Laos, and many of its villages are only accessible by footpath. Our destination this hot morning is a concrete water tank that can be found just off the road. A UK organization helped to build it six years ago, and in the nearby village of Thapho, where clean drinking water is scarce, it has made a big difference. The tank feeds six taps which in turn give water to over 800 people---it has improved things for almost every family, from schoolchildren to grannies.
    But lately, we were told, the clean water supply has come under pressure from new arrivals, people who have come down from the hill areas, and there are concerns that there will not be enough clean water to go round.
    There are also serious worries about resources in Laos. The Chinese are building a 400km railway link, which could transform the landlocked country. About 150,000 Chinese workers will be involved. What will this do to local clean water supplies? How will the workers be fed?
    The vast majority of Laotians live on farms. But with foreign investors wanting to buy up land, local people will have to be moved to make room for them. Heavily dependent on both foreign aid and foreign investment, Laos still falls well behind its neighbours, although its economy has grown at about 6% a year in the last decade. Its biggest economic problem is the lack of locally trained skilled workforce.
    But there are reasons to be hopeful for the future. Laos is beautiful, and foreign tourism continues to grow: fortunately so far the fast-food chains and coffee bars common elsewhere are nowhere to be seen. Although all local media are government-run, the Internet is not controlled and the BBC and CNN are available to those with satellite dishes.
    The government has also achieved impressive results in rural development, with communities benefiting not just from cleaner water but the construction of new schools and regular visits from medical teams. Poverty will not be history in Laos within the next decade, but with small steps forward and a bit of outside help, the country could find itself out of the UN’s least-developed category by 2020.
    小题1:What is putting pressure on the local supply of clean water?
    A．Dust from the road is making the water dirtier.
    B．There are too many taps accessing the water.
    C．The population of the area is growing fast.
    D．The coming summer will dry up rivers and lakes.
    小题2:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a reason for Laos to be hopeful?
    A．There are no fast-food restaurants in the country.
    B．Laos has a variety of tourist attractions.
    C．Information on the Internet is freely accessible.
    D．The government owns all local media.
    小题3:What is the most serious limitation on Laos’ economic growth?
    A．The lack of local skilled workers.
    B．A poor transportation system.
    C．Too much foreign aid.
    D．Too many foreign workers.
    小题4:What is the best title for the passage?
    A．Laos: slow-developing nations
    B．Laos: small steps forward
    C．Laos: least-developed land
    D．Laos: landlocked country

    Disneyland may look like a straightforward theme park. But there’s a secret world hidden behind the balloons, castles and cotton candy — a place where wild cats wander at midnight, Mickey Mouse hides in the wallpaper, and movie stars drink martinis behind closed doors.
    Cat security — It’s not easy keeping the ground of Disneyland spotless, as well as free of unwanted pests. Every night after closing time, 200 wild cats were freed into the park to help keep the rodent（啮齿）population under control. Though Disney doesn’t comment on the matter, rumor（传闻）has it that the cat taskforce dates back to 1957. After unsuccessful attempts to chase them out of the park, Disney decided to put the cats to work instead.
    Hidden Mickeys—At Disneyland the round-eared Mickey Mouse image is everywhere. But you can also see hundreds of “Hidden Mickeys” across the park, which are very difficult to spot: they’re camouflage （伪装）in the architecture and landscaping as well as in the smallest stylistic details.
    Cocktail（鸡尾酒）behind closed doors—Disney is dry unless you can manage to get your name on the list at Club 33. The secret cocktail club has a limited membership of just 487 and a waiting list of approximately 14 years. Walt Disney designed the club as a special space to entertain possible investors; since then, it has hosted US presidents, film stars and foreign guests.
    Always on stage—At Disneyland, a doorman isn’t a doorman, he is a “cast member”. So are the large numbers of cashiers, painters, ride operators, gardeners and performers. All “cast members” are trained to follow a specific rule that helps preserve the Disney magic. On the list of dos and don’ts? Never break character. If wearing a costume that belongs in Fantasyland, don’t set foot in Tomorrowland—it might Confuse visitors or break the park’s orderly image. Cast members have a Disney “look book” that details the fresh-faced ideal—no long fingernails, beards, or unnaturally colored hair allowed. It’s a return to Walt Disney’s All-American standards: when the park opened even guests with facial hair weren’t allowed entrance.
    小题1:The reason why there are many wild cats in Disneyland is that ________.
    A．they’re in charge of the cleaning of the park
    B．they’re allowed to act as cleaners and guards
    C．they have to keep watch in the daytime
    D．they have a comfortable house to live in
    小题2:From the passage we can know that in Disneyland “Hidden Mickeys” are _________.
    A．smallB．obviousC．everywhereD．dishonest
    小题3:What do the underlined Words “Disney is dry” in paragraph 4 mean?
    A．It’s easy to join the Club 33. B．The ground keeps dry.
    C．It doesn’t often rain.D．Drinking alcohol is forbidden.
    小题4: From the last paragraph, we can know the workers in Disneyland _______.
    A．must know the dos and don’t
    B．needn’t have their facial hair shaved
    C．can wear unnaturally colored hair
    D．mustn’t get in Tomorrowland

    Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let’s see if I can name a few proverbs “off the cuff” since I haven’t prepared for it.
    English expressions with “pants”
    People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are restless or nervous have “ants in their pants.” They might also “fly by the seat of their pants” -- they use their natural sense to do something instead of their learned knowledge. Sometimes, people may “get caught with their pants down” -- they are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say “she wears the pants in the family.”
    When people what to say something about money
    Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can “burn a hole in your pocket.” Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to “tighten your belt” -- you may have to live on less money and spend your money carefully. But once you have succeeded in budgeting your money, you will have that skill “under your belt.”
    I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much. I really “take my hat off to them.” Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it “at the drop of a hat” -- immediately, without waiting. And sadly, you cannot “pull money out of a hat” -- you cannot get money by inventing or imagining it.
    English expressions with “shoes”
    Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are “too big for their boots” think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people. I really do. You can bet your boots on that!
    Yet, truly important people are hard to replace. Rarely can you “fill their shoes” -- or replace them with someone equally effective.
    English expressions with “shirt”
    My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too firm and severe. They think he is a real “stuffed shirt.” But I know that my father “wears his heart on his sleeve” -- he shows his feelings openly. And, he knows how to “keep his shirt on” -- he stays calm and never gets angry or too excited.    
     
    小题1:What is this passage mainly about?
    A．How to say English correctly and properly.
    B．Why English expressions include words about clothes.
    C．Which words can be used to describe my father.
    D．What people mean when they use some proverbs.
    小题2:Which of the following proverbs are not related to money?
    A．tighten one’s beltB．burn a hole in one’s pocket
    C．get caught with their pants downD．take one’s hat off to them
    小题3:Tim often considers himself the most important person in the world , which is far from the truth .We may say ____.
    A．he is “too big for their boots”.
    B．he “bet his boots on that ”.

    A．“You really fill your shoes”
    B．“Awesome ! You wear your heart on your sleeve!”
    C．“Amazing !How can you keep your shirt on at that time!”
    D．“Cool! You are truly a stuffed shirt”.

    “Indeed”George Washington wrote in his diary in 1785, “some kind of fly,or bug,had begun to eat the leaves before I left home.” But the father of America was not the father of bug.When Washington wrote that, Englishmen had been referring to insects as bugs for more than a century, and Americans had already created lightning-bug(萤火虫). But the Enlish were soon to stop using the bugs in their language, leaving it to be the Americans to call a bug a bug in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
    The American bug could also be a person, referring to someone who was crazy about a particular activity.Although fan became the usual term, sports fans used to be called racing bugs, baseball bugs and the like.
    Or the bug could be a small machine or object, for example, a bug-shaped car. The bug could also be a burlar alarm, from which comes the expression to bug, that is, “to install(安装) an alarm”. Now it means a small piece of equipment that people use for listening secretly to others’ conversations.Since the 1840s,to bug has long meant “to cheat”,and since the 1994s it has been annoying.
    We also know the bug as a flaw n a computer program or other design.That meaning dates back to the time of Tomas Edison.In 1878 he explained bugs as “little problems and difficulties” that required months of stdy and labor to overcome in developing a successful product. In 1889 it was recorded that Edison “had been up the two previous nights discovering′a bug′ in his invented record player.”

    I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper has   36  me with plenty of opportunities to make them. In one of my earlier   37 , my mother was telling me “Don’t watch the   38  when you say, ‘I’m sorry’. Hold your head up and look at the person in the   39 , so he’ll know you   40  it.”
    My mother thus made the key point of a(n)   41  apology: It must be direct. You must never   42  to be doing something else. You do not   43  a pile of letters while apologizing to a person   44   in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your   45 .

We are used to making excuses, which leaves no   50  for the other person to   51  us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling   52  about themselves. That , after all, is the   53  of every apology. It   54  little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault. Answering for one’s   55  encourages others to take their share of the blame.
