These are called multi- meaning words.Multi-meaning words have the same pronunciation with different meanings. For example, lets look at the word “ball” You could have a “ball” which means you would have a good time. You could toss a “ball” which means you throw an object. You could be on the “ball” which means you know what is happening. You could go to a “ball” which means a dance._Take the word “can”. You “can” ride a bike which means you are able to ride a bike. You have a “can” of soup which means the soup is in a round-shaped holder. You can do the “can-can” which is a dance from the 1920s. And you might get “canned” if you do a poor job at work, which means you might lose your job.How about “fly”? You can “fly” that is on your food in your house. Or, you can “fly by the seat of your pants” which means you dont make a plan before taking an action. And, you know that the “fly” of the zipper.There are hundreds of words that are multi-meaning words. The word “set” has more meanings than any other word in the English language. When you have time, why dont you try to think of all the ways the word “set” is used?If you look at the title of this book Can a Fly, Fly? you know that the answer is “Yes” because you have seen an insect named a “fly” go up in the air and move around through the air which is what “fly” means. Can a Fly, Fly? Of course, it can!21 . If Tom is often late for work and fails to finish his tasks, he will_.Ado the can-canBget cannedCbe on the ballDgo to a ball22 .

Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in paragraph 3?ALets try another word.BLets make a word list.CHeres a survey report.DHeres the guessing game.In the early part of the twentieth century, an American woman named Emily Post wrote a book on etiquette （礼仪）. This book explained the proper behavior Americans should follow in many different social situations, from birthday parties to funerals （葬礼）. This book , The Emily Post Book of Etiquette, Continues to sell well today, although some of the rules Ms. Post gave needed to be updated by the publishers over the years. But in modern society, it is not enough to simply know the proper rules for behavior in your own country. International travel for work and pleasure now makes it necessary for people to understand the rules of etiquette in other cultures as well.Take the etiquette required in giving and receiving gifts for example. As a business traveler, it might be necessary from time to time to give a gift to a customer or co-worker from another culture. Or, as a visitor in another country, a person might receive a gift of welcome or of thanks from members of the host culture. In both giving and receiving gifts, one should not assume （假设） that the rules of etiquette are the same or even similar to the rules in ones own culture.Cultural differences may appear even in such simple processes as giving or receiving a gift. In Western cultures, a gift can be handed over to the receiver with relatively （相对） little ceremony. When a gift is offered,they naturally take the gift while expressing his or her thanks. However, in some Asian cultures, the act of giving is an important aspect of gift-giving, and this process may appear confusing （困惑） to Westerners. In Chinese culture, a receiver will typically refuse to accept the gift at first, with the understanding between the giver and receiver that after being turned down several times,the gift will finally be accepted. In addition, to show respect for the receiver, it is a custom in several Asian cultures to use two hands when offering a gift to another person.24 . What does Emily Posts book mainly talk about?AHer experience on travelling around the world.BThe right behavior Americans should do in different situations.CThe suggestions on how to give a gift in different countries.DDifferent gifts people should give when they have a business trip.25 . What does the underlined word “they” refer to?AThe gift givers.BThe gift receivers.CThe business travelers.DThe hosts.26 . Who will a business traveler give his gift to according to the passage?AHis teachers.BHis parents.CHis customers.DHis friends.27 . What can we infer from the passage?AWesterners are not as polite as Asians.BIn China, people accept ones gift directly nowadays.CIt is rude to use two hands when giving a gift to Westerners.DIt may be impolite in Japan to give a gift with only one hand.阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。Have you ever walked down a city street and suddenly seen a bright garden full of vegetables and flowers?It may be a community garden.
