Heres a simple test. Imagine you are planning to hold a meeting at four oclock. What time should you expect your foreign business friends to arrive? If they are Germans, theyll arrive on time. If they are Americans, theyll probably be 15 minutes early. If they are Englishmen, theyll be 15 minutes late, and you should allow up to an hour for the Italians.The British seemed to think since the English language was widely used in the world, people would always understand what they do. However, they found they were completely wrong. For example, the British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss business matters and have a drink during the meal. The Japanese prefer not to work while eating. Lunch is a time for them to relax and get to know each other and they dont drink at lunchtime. The Germans like to talk business before dinner. The French like to eat first and talk afterwards. They have to be well fed and watered before they discuss anything.（1）What do the Germans prefer when they go to a meeting?A . They prefer to be on time.B . They prefer to arrive very early.C . They prefer to arrive very late.（2）According to the text, if a group of Englishmen, Americans and Italians hold a meeting, who will be the last to arrive?A . The Englishmen.B . The Americans.C . The Italians.（3）What do the Japanese like to do at lunchtime?A . To drink.B . To get to know each other.C . To talk business.（4）According to the writer, the British like to_.A . arrive on time and talk business during the mealB . arrive 15 minutes late and talk business after the mealC . arrive a few minutes late and discuss business during the meal（5）By giving us the two examples, the writer means to show us that_.A . different countries have different cultures in different parts of the worldB . the Germans are more serious and have good living habitsC . the Italians are careless people and they are never on time for everything13. （10分）阅读理解 No matter where a video game is played, on a handheld device(装置), the Internet or the television, too much gaming is a bad thing. Playing too many video games is a problem for kids and there are many signs that show the negative(消极的) influences. If young people are always thinking about when they can play a video game, that is a sign that they have lost themselves in it. If they give up other hobbies that they used to love, that is also a problem. Many kids who choose to spend all their free time playing video games will make up ways to play the game instead of communicating with others. Leaving sports teams or clubs, refusing to go outside to play with friends, and choosing to stay home from birthday parties are all signs that video games have taken over the childs attention. In addition to negative behaviours, there are health problems from playing too many video games. If video game players skip meals or lose sleep because they stayed up too late playing games, this can negatively influence their health. Sitting in front of a game for more than two hours a day instead of getting up and being active can result in childhood obesity(肥胖症). Moreover, backaches, headaches and strained(紧张的) eyes can be caused by playing too many video games. （1）The writer thinks _ is a problem for kids that causes negative influences. A . watching too much TVB . buying many handheld devicesC . chatting too much onlineD . playing video games too often（2）If a child is crazy about video games, he or she may _. A . keep thinking of playing themB . play outdoors instead of staying homeC . like to hold parties with friendsD . eat more than he or she usually does（3）What kind of problem will video game addiction(成瘾) cause according to the passage? A . Higher chance of foot pain.B . Longer time of sleep.C . Lower speed of heartbeats.D . Less interest in exercise.（4）What is the main idea of the passage? A . How to avoid playing video games.B . The signs and the harm of video game addition.C . Reasons of stop making video games.D . What happens to children without enough exercise.（5）You may find this passage in _ . A . a newspaperB . a fashion magazineC . a storybookD . a guidebook14. （6分）阅读理解Special FestivalsSt. Anthonys DayJanuary 17th is St. Anthonys Day in Mexico (墨西哥). Its a day when people ask for protection for their animals by bringing them to church.

When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false pictureFor example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy is a winner, right? Maybe,maybe not. We then discover that he bought $ 200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. Hes really a big loser!He didnt say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. Thats called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some officers often use this trick. Lets say that during Governor Smiths last term, her state lost one millionjobs and gained three million jobs. Then she tries another term. One of the persons who dont support her says, “During Governor Smiths term, the state lost one million jobs!” Thats true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smiths term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.Advertisers will sometimes usehalftruths.
