Besides, in top-grade restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks youre in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup then will be served to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings. If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.Perhaps one of the things that surprise a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always“public”chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it ,just leave the food in the plate.People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!36. The main difference on dinner table between China and West is_.A. you have your own plate of food in West while in China everyone shares the dishesB. you use chopsticks instead of knife and fork on Chinese dinner tableC. youre treated to a formal dinner for the first timeD. you will be given a taste of many different types of dishes37. If you have a dinner in a Chinese home, in which order will the food be served in China? a. A set of four cold dishes.b. Staple food such as rice, noodles or dumplings.c. The main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes.d. Soup. A. a c b dB. c a b dC. a c d bD. c a d b38. According to the passage, we can infer that_.A. Chinese think it impolite for guests to leave food in the plateB. Chinese think it polite to put food into the plates of the guests with their own chopsticksC. people in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumedD. Chinese all think it impolite for guests to ask for a pair of knife and fork.39. The underlined sentence in paragraph 2 means_.A. you should say so earlyB. you should say so happilyC. youd better say soD. you should say so kindly40.The “public chopsticks and spoons” are used for/to_.A. show the politeness to the guestsB. share the food togetherC. show the genuine friendship and politenessD. put food into the plates of their guestsBOne hundred years after the sinking of the R. M. S. Titanic on April 14, 1992, experts are still debating what caused the tragedy. Now, new research by British historian Tom Maltin points to an unusual visual illusion that may have hidden the iceberg that caused the Titanics deadly crash.Maltin read weather records, evidence from survivors, and the ships logs to research his theory. The Titanic, he says, sailed from warm Gulf Stream waters into the freezing Labrador Current. There, the air column was cooling from the bottom up, creating layers of cold air below layers of warmer air. This is called a thermal inversion（逆温）.The thermal inversion, Maltin says, caused light to reflect, or bend, abnormally downward. The refraction created mirages（海市蜃楼，幻景）：objects appeared higherand therefore nearerthan they actually were, before a false horizon.The area between the false horizon and the real horizon appeared as haze. The iceberg was hidden in the fog, so those aboard the Titanic didnt see it until the ship was about to collide with it. As Titanic First Officer William McMaster Murdoch recalled,“That iceberg came right out of the haze.”But by that time, the Titanic was too close to avoid hitting it.Shortly before the Titanic hit the iceberg, it sailed into the view of another ship, the Californian. But the refraction of the light made it appear too near and too small to be the Titanicthe largest ship in the world at the time. The Californian signaled the Titanic by Morse lamp, which uses flashes of light to send signals. The Titanic, now in trouble, also signaled the Californian by Morse lamp. But the thermal inversion interrupted the signals and the distress rockets the Titanic shot into the air. The Titanic finally sank at 2:20 a.m. local time on April 15.Although some experts agree with Maltins theory, others say the Titanic sank simply because it ignored several warnings of heavy ice and because it was going too fast in dangerous waters. Whatever the cause, people remain fascinated with the Titanic, and researchers and historians will likely come up with new theories for years to come.41. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The real cause of Titanics tragedy.B. The weather that affects the voyage at sea.C. The two shipsthe Titanic and the Californian.D. Maltins new theory about the Titanics deadly crash.42.What does the underlined word“refraction”in the third paragraph refer to?A. The thermal inversion.B. The reflection.C. The iceberg.D. The false horizon.43. Why couldnt the Titanic get help from The Californian according to Maltins theory?A. The thermal inversion interrupted the signals.B. The Californian was too small a ship to offer any help.C. People on The Californian ignored the signals from the Titanic.D. There was something wrong with the Morse lamp on The Californian,44. What can we learn from the text?A. All experts agree with Maltins theory.B. None of the experts agrees with Maltins theory.C. Further Research will be done for the new theories.D. Maltin blames the tragedy on speeding.45. Where can we read the passage?A. A news report.B. A travel guide.C. A foggy weather research.D. A physical textbook.CThe writers murder stories go to a great deal of trouble to keep us guessing right up to the end. In actual fact, people often behave more strangely in real life than they do in stories.The following advertisement once appeared in a local newspaper:“An opportunity to earn 250 in a few minutes. A man, who is willing to take chances, wanted for an out-of-the-ordinary job which can be performed only once.”A reader applied to the generous advertiser. But being a bit suspicious, he gave a false name. Soon afterwards, he received a reply. In the envelope was a typed note instructing him to ring a certain number if he was still interested. He did so and learned on the telephone that the advertiser wanted him “to get rid of somebody” and would discuss it more fully with him next day. But the man told the police and from then on acted under their instructions.The police saw the two men meet and watched them as they drove away together. In the car the advertiser came to the point at oncehe wanted the man to shoot his wife. The reason he gave was that he was suffering from a serious disease and wanted to live in a warmer country, but his wife objected to this. Giving the man some money, the advertiser told him to buy a gun and warned him to be careful of the dog, which might attract attention. He also gave him a photograph of his wife so that he would be able to recognize her. After that, the advertiser suggested that the man should do the job next morning. At the same time he would prepare his wife by telling her that a young man was going to call. After the murder, they would meet again outside a railway station and the money would be paid as arranged. The second meeting never took place, for the advertiser was arrested shortly afterwards and charged with attempting to persuade someone to murder his wife.46. Which is the best title for the passage?A.A False AdvertisementB.A False JudgmentC. An Attempted MurderD.A Cruel Advertiser47. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. The advertiser employed the man to kill his wife.B. The man went to see the advertiser without telling anyone.C. The man went to meet the advertiser under polices instructions.D. The man didnt tell advertiser the real name.48. What is the right order of the events in the story?a. There was a strange advertisement on a local newspaper.b. A man wanted to hire someone to kill his wife.c. A man applied to the advertiser and received a note.d. The man reported the suspicious case to the police.e. The man learned that the advertiser wanted to get rid of somebody.f. The police kept a close watch on the two mens meeting.g. The advertiser was arrested and ch
