But when a stranger received the misaddressed mail, she didnt just throw it in the garbage like many people would have done. Instead, she returned the invitation, along with a sweet note and $20 as a wedding present.The sender also wrote “Live long and prosper.” on the er of the card-words from “Star Trek”, probably because the young couples wedding invitation shows Jesse holding a light knife from “Star Wars” and Cassie holding a wand (魔杖) in a nod to the “Harry Potter” books.The generous stranger also included $20, probably as a little gift for the wedding. The young couple put the money to good use by going out to dinner with a friend who wouldnt be able to attend the wedding.Warren said that she was at first confused by the returned wedding invitation. “But after I saw the note, I was just surprised and blessed that she/he would do that for a stranger,” Warren said. “Jesse was confused at first, too-he wondered why someone had sent us money, then I read the message to him, and he was shocked and grateful.”Warren and Jones still dont know the name of the kind stranger, but Warren sent a thank-you note to the same address to let the sender know how much her/his generosity was appreciated. The young couple plan to marry in June and thanks to the kindness of a stranger, their marriage is already off to a sweet start.24What caused the story to happen?A. A strangers honesty. B. A genuine email.C. A wrong address. D. Joness carelessness.25How did the stranger deal with the invitation?A. She gave it to Jesses aunt. B. She accepted it immediately.C. She ignored it pletely. D.

A Sweet Wedding B. A Kind NeighborC. Strangers Kindness D. A Happy Young CoupleCParents should stop blaming themselves because theres not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem, the one I want to talk about as a specialist. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.Ive seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I dropped in on them. Sprawling himself (懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I dont know what to do with him these days,” she said. “Hes forgotten all the manners we taught him.” He hasnt forgotten them. Hes just decided that hes not going to use them. She admitted that she would like to e up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I dont like your dress; its ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.28Who is probably the author of the text?A. A doctor for mental health problems.B. A headmaster of a middle school.C. A parent without teenage children.D. A specialist in teenager studies. 29. What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to?A. The advice that parents want their children to followB. The change from good to bad thats seen in a childC. The opinion that a child has of his parentsD. The way that parents often blame themselves30. What we can infer about the parents from the second example?A. They pay no attention to the two daughters.B. They feel helpless to do much about the two daughters.C. They have e to hate the two daughters gradually.D. They are too busy to look after the two daughters.31. What is the authors opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.B. Parents are at fault for the change in their children.C. Parents should work more closely with school teachers.D. Parents should pay still more attention to the change.DMeeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in small talk, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries - like the UK or France - people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an unfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.32. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to_.A. get to know each other B. share the same cultureC. develop closer relations D. keep each other pany33. What does the author want to show us by mentioning his experience in Thailand?A. Too many words are of no use.B. The English prefer to make long speeches.C. People from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature.D. Even talk and silence can be culturally different.34. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?A. By accepting different habits. B. By recognizing different values.C. By sharing different ways of life. D. By speaking each others languages.35What is the text mainly about?A. Cross-cultural differences B. Multicultural environment C. How to build up a relationshipD. How to understand each other第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Building the thinking habit is important because it helps you live with a purpose.
