One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive (敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old is a problem since “old shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didnt want to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I dont respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I dont show my feelings through words. 41. Jack brought the couple their food very fast because .A. the manager asked him to do so B. he respected the elderlyC. the couple wanted him to do so D. he wanted more pay42. When Jack called the couple “elderly, they became .A. nervousB. satisfied C. unhappyD. excited43. In Jacks hometown, .A. people dislike being called “old B. people are proud of being oldC. many people reach the age of seventy or eighty D. the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants44. After this experience, Jack .A. lost his job in the restaurant B. made friends with the coupleC. no longer respected the elderly D. changed his way with older people45. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.C. The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.D. From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture.BHow often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and old people wishing they were young again! Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Ks5uChildhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents. He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.46. According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that _.A. life for a child is comparatively easy B. a child is always loved whatever he does C. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return D. only children are interested in life47. After a child grows up, he _. A. will have little time playing B. has to be successful in finding a job C. can still ask for help in time of troubleD. should be able to take care of himself48. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Those who can accept whatever happens in each age are happy. . B. Things are less interesting for older people. C. Adults are free to do what they want to do.D. Adults should no longer rely on others.49. The underlined word "responsibilities" in the second paragraph means_. A. duties B. jobs C. suggestions D. desires50. The main idea of the passage is _ .A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hardC. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one's lifeD. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his lifeC根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。When children celebrate a wedding anniversary for the parents, its not just a celebration for the parents but for the whole family. There are many types of wedding anniversary gifts. 51 Choosing a gift for parents that involves the whole family makes the event more special for them. Budget预算Children shouldnt spend too much money on the gift. Parents usually know the financial conditions of their children. 52 Considerations Ks5uAn anniversary gift for parents should have two characteristics: customized 订制的, and something they can use together. It is not a good idea to choose a gift that only looks good. The gift is celebrating their time spent together, so it has to be something they both will enjoy. Family celebrationOne of the biggest achievements of parents is raising children. So some children decide to buy an anniversary gift that involves the entire family such as a special family vacation. 53 A party as a gift 54 If it is a milestone anniversary such as a 25th or 50th wedding anniversary, some children choose to hold a party. The guest list includes all family members who have been close to them over the years. Family-themed gifts One choice is a family photo taken by a professional or even a painting created by a professional artist using a family photo as the image to be painted. 55 If the parents dont have a DVD player, the player can be included as part of the gift. A. Sometimes gifts dont have to be objects bought with money.B. Brothers and sisters can share the cost of the party. C. And these gifts reflect a lot of thought and effort. D.
