Bamboo (竹子) is one of nature"s (自然) most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it

centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters (1 foot) across. This plant also comes
in different colors, from yellow to black to green.

strong, bamboo is also used to build buildings.
Many Asian countries have used bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for buildings
and supporting (支撑) new buildings and bridges while they are being built.
In Africa, poor farmers are taught how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap

business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe
(贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but
among ourselves we don"t see the need for presents.
Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things
for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn"t. I don"t often re-member a friend"s birthday, and
few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I"d get unpleasant.
But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland-won"t go wrong, except to government
employees (政府职员) who can"t be given presents.
You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday
presents. You should only say, "It"s so nice. Thanks…" when you get Christ-mas or birthday presents.
You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you"re never asked to.
Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.
At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to
people who have been helpful during the year-doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders-anyone
who has often helped us. | | 1. What does "close friends" mean in the passage? | A. The friends who are very kind.

D. The friends who you like most. | | 2. What kind of presents don"t Americans usually open in front of the givers? | A. The small presents.
B. Christmas or birthday presents.
C. The expensive presents.
D. The presents for dinner party. | | 3. Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas? | A. To pay them.
B. To help them.
C. To thank them.
D. To make them work harder. | | 4. Which of the following do you think is right? | A. American business people don"t want presents because they are rich enough.
B. The writer of this passage must be an American.
C. Everyone must give presents to one"s family and friends at Christmas.
