But if you ask Americans the same question, they will be surprised because they think that "going to some place” is their own business. In their eyes, only a policeman will ask such a question in the street.The same thing will happen to Americans if you ask them "Have you had your meal?”. In fact, to us Chinese, such questions do not mean anything but a greeting.In America, when two friends meet in the street, they will say "Hello!" or "How are you?”. They never ask “Where are you going or “Have you had your meal”. If two friends meet at the mealtime and one asks the other "Have you had your meal?”, that means he wants to invite his friend to have a meal with him. Its quite different from what it means in China.The examples above tell us that people in different countries have different customs. Now we are learning foreign languages, we must pay great attention to their customs.一、听力ACCCB ABCCA CBBAC BCACB二、单项选择BCADB DBDAA三、完形填空ACCDB BABDC四、阅读理解BBDCA ADDDC BACDC五、阅读表达l.In New York.2.Because Jack didn't take any money with him when jogging.3 .A 10-dollar bill. /Ten dollars.4 .Some bread. /Bread.5 .Jack. /The writer.六、任务型阅读1 .Transport 2.here 3. three 4.popular 5.such6 .carry7. fas ter8.most9.OtherlO.Because七、词汇1 .have seen2.Booking3.discussion4.to answer 5.politely6.hidden7.librarians8.speaking9.unable lO.sailing八、缺词填空1. became2.Since3.beginning4.against 5. army6.anything7.However8.unhappy9.with lO.sails第二局部 听对话和短文回答以下问题(共10小题，每题1分)听一段对话，回答第11至12小题。()11.
