     As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences
when we pay attention to the words are used. Let's look at the words about animals and plants. Most
expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example,"a homeless dog","a mad dog","a running dog" and "a dog
catching a mouse", have negative (消极的) meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest
and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive (积极的) actions. For example,"you are a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good
luck sometimes. To describe a person's serious illness, they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired" means
very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture,"cat" is often used to describe a
woman who is cruel (冷酷的). There are many other examples of how "cat" is used differently as well.
    The rose is regarded as a symbol (象征) of love in both China and some western countries. People think
the rose stands for (代表) love, peace (和平), courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of
England, America and many other countries.
    The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can
learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.

Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Let’s look at the following advantages of banning smoking.
First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will also be good for passive(被动)smokers. When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets. If smoking is banned, spread of these diseases can be controlled.
Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.  Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours. When a smoker doesn’t smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too. As a result, people have to give up smoking.
Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents. When teens see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily. Thus the number of teen smokers will increase. Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers. So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.
Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生产率).Employees(雇员)who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working. So the number of  hours they put in their work is smaller.
If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned. Smoking causes air pollution. If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.
【小题1】________doesn’t belong to a non-smoking place.
A.A fieldB.A hospitalC.A libraryD.A restaurant
【小题2】The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us ______.
A.banning smoking is good for restaurants
B.banning smoking is good for non-smokers

D.banning smoking is good for active smokers and passive smokers
【小题3】How many advantages of banning smoking are mentioned in this passage?
A.Two.B.Four.C.Five.D.Six.
【小题4】According to the text, the underlined word “adolescents” means ______.
A.menB.womenC.adultsD.teenagers
【小题5】Which of the following statements in NOT true?
A.If smoking is banned, work productivity will increase.
B.If smoking is banned, the number of teen smokers will be larger.
C.If smoking is banned, it will make the environment become better.
D.If smoking is banned, smokers will learn how to live without smoking.
