Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be upset(不安的)if your English friends don’t invite you home. It doesn’t mean they don’t like you. Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m. and end at about 11. Ask your hosts(主人)what time you should arrive. It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift. Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks(小吃). If you want to be extra polite, say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember-it’s not polite to ask how much things cost. In many families, the husband sits at one of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with their guests. You’ll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert(甜点心), followed by coffee. It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it. Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter. British and American people like to say “thank you, thank, thank you” all the time!

A.doesn’t like you | B.likes you |

答案
小题1:B
小题2:A
小题3:B
小题4:A
小题5:D
解析
文章讲的是英国和美国吃饭的礼仪,特别讲到了哪些是礼貌的和哪些是不礼貌的礼仪。
1. B 推理题。文章说You should not be upset(不安的)if your English friends don’t invite you home(你不必因为你的英语朋友没邀请你而感到不安),后面接着说明原因 It doesn’t mean they don’t like you(这并不意味着他们不喜欢你),故A答案错误,C,D答案文章没有提到,故最有可能就是他们也喜欢你,故选B。
2. A 细节题,文章讲了很多礼貌的行为,后面提到it’s not polite to ask how much things cost,故问价格是不礼貌的,选A。
3 B 细节题。由于用了start …then….and then…followed by coffee等表示先后的词,但最后落到了coffee上面,故选B。
4.A 从Ask your hosts(主人)what time you should arrive可知A正确,外国人最讲究准时,其它三个答案并没有提到,选A。
5.D 此题要从全文来分析答案。我们从it’s not polite to ask how much things cost可知问价格不礼貌,故B错;从the husband sits at one of the table and the wife sits at the other end可知C错。再从下文Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter可知D正确,外国人喜欢说感谢之类的话。A答案文章没讲到,选D。

December 25 is Christmas Day(圣诞节). Christmas is an important holiday in many countries. On Christmas Day, most families get together for a big dinner. They give presents to each other and visit friends. The Christmas tree is an important part of the Christmas holiday. Most families buy trees. The families decorate(装饰) the tree together. Parents usually tell their children that Father Christmas comes during the night and brings presents to good children. Of course, Father Christmas isn’t real.

I’ve always wanted to try rock climbing, but never had time or money for it. But I’ve discovered a way to experience the thrill(兴奋,紧张) of climbing rock. Indoor climbing is an easy and exciting way to get a taste of rock climbing. And it is also much cheaper and safer! Indoor climbers don’t climb on real rock, but on a plastic wall. You can probably find a climbing wall near you. Many gyms,
schools and camps have one.
You can climb in doors at any time of the year, no matter how the whether is. It is usually not expensive. Most gyms provide the equipment you need. The convenience of indoor climbing is one reason why it has become so popular. But the main reason people climb is for rush(刺激感) they get. When I stand at the roof of the wall and look up, I’m always scared, but once I start climbing, fear changes to determination. With my heart pounding(心剧烈跳动), I reach the top and look down. I can’t stop grinning. I did it! Indoor climbing is a great workout(锻炼). Climbing uses muscles(肌肉)that are hard to exercise, especially those in the shoulders, arms, chest and back. Many people say climbing makes exercise fun. Most gyms have several climbing walls with various degrees of difficulty. The easier ones are like climbing a ladder. The difficult ones bulge out(凸出)in places so that climbers must sometimes climb parallel(平行的)with the floor.
Although gym climbing is easier and safer than real rock climbing, you should still be careful. Always climb with a partner. As you climb, your partner pulls you climbing rope through something called a belay device(绳索控制器). The belay catches you if you slip. But make sure your partner knows how to use this equipment. And if you are a first-time climber, get some instruction before you begin.

小题3:What are the reasons that make the indoor climbing so popular?
