What kind of manners（礼貌） do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud burp after you finish eating. Burping would show that you like your food. In some countries, if you give a big burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please”.In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show their good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat.What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you. They are being polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you are polite, you will sit down beside him. You will wait until he finishes what he is doing. Then he will talk to you. Manners are different all over the world. But it is good to know that all manners begin in the same way. People need ways to show that they want to be friends.21.

Some time later the tortoise successfully swam to a land. There was nothing to eat on the land. All the sides of the land were water except for the east. The east side led up to a big mountain. To survive, the tortoise decided to climb to the top of the mountain. He hoped that he would be able to cross to the other side.When he got to the top of the mountain, he found the top was covered with snow. He felt cold, and then a big wind started. Finally, he found a small path leading down the other side of the mountain. But the path was stopped by a big monster(魔鬼). It kept shouting.“Uuh uuh uuh !”This made the tortoise feel feared. But, looking around him, he saw that many other animals were lying in the snow, with looks of fear on their faces. So the tortoise made up his mind to keep moving down the path towards the monster. The closer the tortoise got, the bigger the monster became. Then, when he was almost upon it, the tortoise realized the monster was only a great rock. The “Uuh uuh uuh” was just the sound of the wind.The tortoise went on. In the end he came to an area filled with forests and plenty of food. The tortoise lived very happily there.25.

Brave（勇敢的）CHow to Study Smarter, Not HarderHere are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder：Recite As You StudyReciting saying things out loud should first happen as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will not only help you to understand but also learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.Take Fuller NotesNotes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.Study the MiddleThe best time to review is soon after you've learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.Sleep on ItStudy before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It's easier to remember material you've just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep.Combine Memory and UnderstandingThere are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote(死记硬背）. Ideas are best learned by understanding.The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got puzzled and try again.29You can notice your mistakes by _.A. saying things out aloudB. taking notesC. studying the middleD. sleeping on it30When taking notes, you should _ to better help you with reading. A. underline important notesB. write notes in your own wordsC. take down every detailD. write as quickly as possible31The writer advises you to _ as it is easier for you to remember material. A. study after a period of activityB. do some exercise after studyingC. study as soon as you get upD. study before going to sleep32Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?A. Thinking about an idea in different ways. B. Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know. C. Reading from the beginning to the end without stop. D. Going back to what first made you puzzled and start again.
