Im now writing to ask you something about American social customs社交习惯. My American friend want me to join them in their dinner party. I am very happy and have decided to go, but Im a little worried about it, too. The social customs in my country are very different from here, so Im afraid of making mistakes.Should I bring a present, such as sweet or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late? At the dinner table, how can I know which fork叉子or knife to use? How can I let the family know that Im thankful for their kindness?Wang LinLetter BDear Wang Lin,Its a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you may bring a bottle of wine葡萄酒if you know that your friends drink it.You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Dont get there early. If youre going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.Try to be free at the dinner table. If you dont know about choosing the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do. ask the person next to you.If you like the food, say so. Of course, youll thank them for the meal and for their kindness.

A. difficult B. friendly C. enjoyable D. helpful BSome people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If its hard for you to communicate with your parents, dont worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟). Dont argue (争辩) with your parents. Dont get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably wont consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you cant express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you dont think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michaels mother didnt agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!( )1. The passage tells us _ have a communication problem. A. parents and other people B. school kids and their parents C. teachers and their students D. parents and children of all ages( )2. Your parents probably wont consider your ideas if you _. A. dont get to them oftenB. write a letter to them C. dont speak to them politelyD. express yourself well( )3.

From the passage we learn that _. A. parents and children should not have a generation gap B. parents should show love and respect to their children C. there are some good ways to bridge the generation gap D. there are so many serious problems in families today CThirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersey, was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish. The lake water is polluted. It is in a colour of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all round Lake Ponkapog, so the rainwater was clean. Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use the chemicals (化学制品)in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning and killing insects. There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines of shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from home and businesses and then carries them into the lake . They pollute the water and kill the animals.Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats汽船. But oil and gas汽油 from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.People in Hartwell are worried . They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? A clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at other chemicals on the ground. And they mustnt use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change peoples lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again. 1. In the past, the water in Lake Ponkapog was made clean by _.A. forests B. rain C. birds D. fish 2. Chemicals from homes and businesses _. A. are always clean B. can help the animals C. are good for the lake D. get into the rainwater 3. Cleaner rainwater will mean _ . A. more boats on the lake B. more dirty things in the lake C. a cleaner lake D. a dirty lake 4. To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to _. A. be more careful about chemicals B. use the water C. grow fewer plants in the gardens D. use more motorboats on the lake 5. The passage is about _. A. boats on the Lake Pankapog B. why the water is dirty in Lake Ponkapog C. clean rainwater D. dirty lakes四. 词汇运用 (每题1分，共15分)1. My parents are celebrating 30 years of their m_.2.
