     There are a lot of things that happen to me in China but would certainly never happen in the US. One of
those things is being called"strong".
     The first time was last December. I was walking across the high school campus in Guangzhou where I
taught when a student in a gray scarf waved hello. I smiled and waved back, but then she stopped and called
my name."You"re so strong!" She smiled and pointed at what appeared to be my right arm.
     I looked down at my arms. Let"s get one thing clear: I"m a very skinny guy. Once, while rehearsing for a
high school talent show, I was told by the teacher in charge that I couldn"t participate in the men"s shirtless
dance routine because my visible rib cage (胸腔) would frighten the audience.
     "I"m so what?""You"re so strong!" she repeated."Um, thanks!" I didn"t know what else to say, so we both
waved goodbye.
     The next morning I stepped into my oral English classroom only to be greeted instantly by a unanimous
(异口同声的) "Waaa!" of shock and admiration."What?" I asked."You"re so strong!" shouted a boy from the
back of the class.
     "Okay, will someone tell me what that means?" I was curious as to the real reason for such praise. So I
turned to the monitor, gesturing for him to speak.
     "We just mean, you look very strong today," he offered earnestly.
     "What?! You mean like this?" I curled (卷起) my arm like a body-builder.
      "No! But it"s so cold, and you"re only wearing a short-sleeved shirt."
     Oh, I got it. My"strength" had less to do with my muscle and more to do with my apparent ignorance of
the cold weather.
1. From the passage we can learn that the author is _______.
A. an American teacher
B. an American student
C. a Chinese teacher
D. a Chinese student
2. The author used the example of being refused to join in the dance routine to show that ______.
A. many people worry about his bad health
B. actually he isn"t physically strong at all
C. he is as strong as a body builder
D. being called "strong" often happens to him
3. The underlined word "she" in the 4th paragraph refers to ______.
A. a stranger he met on the way to work
B. the teacher in charge of the dance routine
C. the girl who joined in the rehearsing
D. the girl he met on the campus
4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Am I Strong or Do I Need a Sweater
B. The Chinese Culture or the Western Culture
C. How I Can Get Stronger in Winter
D. How We Can Tell Two Different Cultures Apart

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
     Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(购物手推车).They
will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know-or even think to ask-who it was that invented them.
      Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business.
Every day he would see shoppers lugging (吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
     One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make
shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
     On June 4,1937,Coldman"s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the
morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn"t wait to see them using his invention.
     But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the cart a long look, but hardly anybody would give
them a try.
     After a while, Coldman decided to ask customers why they weren"t using his carts." Don"t you think this
arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?"one shopper replied.
     But Coldman wasn"t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade
people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and
pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假冒的)
customers.
     As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his
market. But not only did more people come-those Who came bought more. With larger, easier-to- handle
baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
     Today"s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman"s original model. Perhaps that"s one reason
Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937-before
the coming of the shopping cart.
