     When someone asks you to his or her home in the USA, it's very clear who the guest is and who the
host is. But invitation to restaurants are usually different. In many cases, it is the inviter who pays. But in
some cases, each one pays his or her own bill(账单). For example, when your friend says "Let's go and
get a beer," or "Want a cup of coffee?", it may be more of advice than an invitation.
     Some people like taking their friends to a restaurant for dinner instead of having dinner at home. In this case, the host is expected to pay and the guest may leave the tip(小费). If you want to invite someone for a meal at a restaurant, tell him or her: "I'd like to take you to …".
     There are also phrases that sound like invitations, but in fact they are not. People may say things like "We'll have to get together sometime," or "You'll have to come over and visit us sometime." They are the
expressions of saying goodbye. So you could answer "Yes, that would be nice," or "I'd love to," or
something similar.

A. have a free dinner

    You may know that some English words come from French.
    One interesting thing is that when we talk about meat at the table, we use French words. But when we talk
about animals, English words are used. For example, a pig is called pig when it's living, but it's called pork
when it is killed and its meat is brought to the table.
    When the Normans (诺曼人) ruled (统治) England, the English farmers were made to raise animals for
food, but they could not eat the meat. The meat was sent to the Normans' tables. The farmers could only eat
rabbit, because rabbits ran all over the fields and rabbit meat was cheap. So the meat of a rabbit was not
changed into a French word. It was called rabbit by the English farmers at that time and is still called rabbit
today.
1. We know that the word "pork" is _____.
[     ]
A. a kind of animal
B. really an English word

D. used only by Frenchman
2. The English farmers were made to raise animals by _____.
[     ]
A. the farmers themselves

3. Which of the following sentence is wrong?
[     ]
A. A rabbit is a kind of animal.
B. "Pig" is another way of saying "pork".
C. The expressions of some meat of animals was changed into French words.
D. The farmers could eat rabbit, because it was cheap when the Normans ruled England.

     A research shows that expressions on our faces have a strong relationship with our genes (基因).
According to the study, facial expressions of our feelings are innate and are not achieved in cultural
learning.
     This is the first research to show that blind people have the same facial expressions as the sighted
when showing certain feelings-the same facial muscles (肌肉) start working. What's more, the research
gives the new method of how people control their feelings in certain social situations. It states that people
do not leam to manage their facial expressions by examining the expressions of others.
     In his study, David Matsumoto, San Francisco State University Psychology Professor, examined
facial expressions of bhnd and sighted judo athletes (柔员) that took part in the Summer Olympics and
Paralympics (残奥会). He examined over 4 800 pictures of different athletes who came from 23 countries.
Matsumoto found that both blind and sighted sportsmen had the same facial expressions, according to a
specific social situation.
     "This suggests genes decide facial expressions of feelings," he said.
     One of his findings was the "social smiles" of judo athletes who lost their match and got the second
place. It is interesting to find that only mouth muscles are used in social smiles, while during real smiles,
shown when a person is really happy, the eyes of a person twinkle and get smaller and the cheeks (脸颊)
rise.
     "Losers pu8hed their lower lip up as if to control the feeling on their face and many produced social
smiles," said Matsumoto. "People blind from birth were unable to leam to manage their feelings with the
help of examining others' facial expressions." He thought that there must be another system involved.
     "It's possible that in order to hide sad feelings, humans have developed a system that closes the mouth
so that they are stopped from crying, biting or rudeness," he said.
1. The underlined word "innate" in the first paragraph means _____.
A. from birth
B. from daily life
C. from others
D. from teaching
2. According to the passage, real smiles are different from social smiles in _____.
A. opening the eyes
B. using facial muscles
C. closing the mouth
D. watching others' expressions
3. How does the writer make us believe the new findings?
A. By telling us an interesting story.
B. By interviewing some researchers.
C. By showing the results of the research.
D. By giving the answers to the questions.
4. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Smiles and Olympics
B. Blind and Sighted Athletes
C. Social Smiles and Real Smiles
D. Genes and Facial Expressions

The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.

     Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.

     One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.

     Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.

     Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other’s problems.

     The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The benefits of learning other languages.

B. The reasons why people come to America.

C. The importance of learning English.

D. How to learn another language.

2.The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to_______.

A. discuss the need for teaching a new language

B. introduce the passage’s main characters to the readers

C. describe the advantages of moving to another country

D. show the problems of speaking only one language

3.The underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” (Paragraph 5) means “people who know ______.”

A. their mother language          B. a new language

C. more than one language        D. body language

4.According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can____.

A. find a better job

B. make more friends

C. better understand history

D. communicate more independently

5.Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?

A. Not knowing another language.

B. Forgetting one’s mother language.

C. Refusing to learn another language.

D. Failing to communicate with others.
