阅读理解。     America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon.
They don"t feel hurt. If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This
can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand. Friendships between us develop more slowly but may
become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) deeply into both families.
     There is another difficult point for us to understand.Although Americans treat friends warmly in their
personal everyday lives, they don"t show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time. But in
China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appear at an airport even in the middle
of the night to meet a friend. We may take day off from our work to act as guides to our friends: It is
opposite in America, Americans can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their
daily plans. They will probably expect the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels. And
they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome
will be full, warm and real.
      For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants,
except for business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their
holidays, and their home life. So accept their hospitality (好客) at home and enjoy your visit in America! 1. The underlined phrase "pick up" in Paragraph 1 may mean "_____". [     ]
A. keep out
B. give up
C. pay no attention to
D. continue 2. Which of the following is the typical (典型的) way of American hospitality? [     ]
A. Treating friends at home.
B. Taking days off to be with friends.
C. Meeting friends at the airport at midnight.
D. Sharing everything they have.3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? [     ]
A. Americans are always generous with their time.
B. Americans don"t feel hurt if their friendships disappear soon.
C. Chinese friendships develop more slowly but will never disappear.
D. Chinese friendships are more sincere than American friendships.4. This passage is most probably written for _____. A. American students
B. Chinese students
C. Chinese visitors to America
D. American visitors to China

     Get ready, China. The world is coming! Every say lots of foreigners come here as business people or
tourists. And even more people will come in 2008 for the Beijing Olympics. When they come to China, we
should do something to help them enjoy themselves and like China and the Chinese people.
     But there are some things they may not like:
     1. Traffic problems Cars park on sidewalks. Bus drivers drive so fast that they make people who are
trying to cross the street afraid.
     2. Queue jumping At the post office, or even at McDonald"s, people push to the front of a line instead
of waiting.
     3. Bumping Too many people are crowed onto buses and trains. This makes people feel terrible, and it is
not safe, either.On a bus in North America, people try to make themselves smaller and they"ll say "Excuse
me" or "Sorry" if they knock into someone. In China, people make themselves bigger with no "Excuse me"
or "Sorry"
4. Littering I notice this everywhere. Some people throw rubbish onto the ground even when there is a
rubbish bin (箱) right next to them. Most Chinese people are just as unhappy with these kinds of things as
I am. And, certainly, the government (政府) has known the problems and is trying to do something
about them.
