many people who work in these places get low salaries. A tip shows that the customer is pleased with the
service.
At airports, porters usually get a dollar tip for each bag. Hotel bellhops (男侍) usually get a dollar for
carrying one or two suitcases. A hotel door attendant (服务生) gets about a dollar for getting a taxi for
people. Many people also tip hotel room attendants, especially when they stay in a hotel for several days.
They usually leave a dollar for each day.
The usual tip for other kinds of services--for example, for taxi drivers, barbers, hairdressers, waiters
and waitresses-is between 10 and 20 percent of the bill. The size of the tip depends on how pleased the
customer is. In most restaurants, the check does not include a service charge. If the group is large,
however, there may be an added service charge. There is no tipping in cafeterias (自助食堂) or fast-food
restaurants.

different from Modern English. If we do not study old English, we can"t understand it. Some of the words
are the same, but many are not used now. The story of the English language begins some time after the year
400 AD. At this time, some people came to England from North-west Europe. There were many groups of
people. They were called Angles (盎格鲁人), Saxons (撒克逊人) and Jutes (朱特人), whose language, old
English, is like some of the modern language of North-West Europe. In old English, the ending had many
meanings. They showed past time and present time and many other things. In Modern English, most of these
endings are gone. This is the biggest difference between Old and Modern English.

large stretch of land left unused is full of scenic beauty. On the one hand it is proud of its urban areas, and
on the other hand, it has the rich wealth of forests, mountains, plains and much more.
On the east coast of the country there are cities like New York, the leading city in business. Washington,
D.C. is the capital of the country, where you will get an opportunity to see the White House. The city will
simply impress you, with many museums showing the culture, lifestyle, art and architecture of the country.
Another place worth visiting is Miami, one of the most popular international tourist destinations. It is also
well known for its Latin culture, wonderful urban nightlife and beaches.
Moving to the west coast, you will come across the most amazing places in which to relax. Los Angeles
is the place where you can see life in all its many forms; this city is world-famous for its Hollywood film
industry. It also has beaches that can offer breathtaking surfing experiences.
Moving on to the Pacific Coast Highway, we get to see the beauty of San Francisco. Clean beaches and
mountains topped (盖住) by clouds are worth seeing. Travelers can enjoy day trips to beaches, deserts and
wine-producing regions. Chicago lies on the shore of the Great Lakes and is believed to be the fastest
growing city in the world, with its high standard of living and rich lifestyles. The city is a center for many

on its own, of course. But think about what the words mean when they are used together. Homesick means
SICK FOR HOME.
Now think for a minute about. If you change the word home in the definition (释义) to the word sea,
would the definition fit SEASICK? Does seasick mean SICK FOR SEA? It means something quite different.
Seasick means SICK BY THE MOVEMENT ON THE SEA. When you are homesick, the only place you want
to be at home. When you are seasick, the last place you want to he is at sea.
Have you ever heard of a person being heartsick? Heart-sick doesn"t mean that something is wrong with
a person"s heart. People are heartsick when they are hurt deep inside and when they feel as if their hearts are
broken.
But, on the other hand, we have such compound words as handshake and handbag. Perhaps you may
write definitions for them and knowing something like this must be helpful in your English study.

C. where you go the last
D. the last place you go to
B. difficult to know
C. impossible to learn
D. unnecessary (没必要) to learn
B. the building of compound words is interesting
C. the definitions of some word are hard to guess
D. not all the compound words are what they seem to be
on every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods,
all at very good prices. You can get things you won"t find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about
them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you
are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.
The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity"s appeal (呼吁) to aid postwar
Greece had been so successful that it had been flooded with donations (捐赠物). They decided to set up a
shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops
in the UK. My favorite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children"s
books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who
gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags
of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don"t encourage this, rather ask people to bring
things in when the shop is open.
The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than
£110 million a year, funding (资助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children,
homeless and disabled people, and much more. What a better place to spend your money? You get something
special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on
the environment.
B. its great variety of goods
C. its spirit of goodwill
D. its nice shopping environment
B. deal with unwanted things
C. raise money for patients
D. help a foreign country
B. The staff are usually well paid.
C. 90% of the donations are second-hand.
D. They are open twenty-four hours a day.
B. Charity Shop: Its Origin & Development.
C. Charity Shop: Where You Buy to Donate.
D. The Public"s Concern about Charity Shops.
