themuncomfortable.FamilyIn China,elders are traditionally treated with a lot of respectwhile the young are cherished（关爱）.In America,the goal of thefamily is to encourage independence,particularly that of thechildren.Unlike the Chinese,older Americans seldom live withtheir children.FriendsChinese people think that hanging out together from timeto time is not friendship.Friendship means lifelong friends whoshould give each other whatever help might seem required.Americans always call people they meet friends,so thedefinition of friends is general and different.There are workfriends,playing friends,school friends and drinking friends.MoneyAs is well known,the Chinese like to save.They always planhow to spend money.It is different in the USA,where far fewerfamilies are saving money for emergencies and education.EducationChinese people value education and career more thanAmericans,while Americans pay more attention to goodcharacter and faith.IndividualismBasically China values the community and the US values theindividual.If you achieve something in the USA,it s becauseyou are great.While in China,if you achieve something it sbecause the team,or family,or company is great.Everythingyou do depends on the greater whole,while in Americaindividual value is celebrated.29.Which do Americans pay more attention to?A.Privacy,family,education and individual

said she had examined an alien who hadbeen injured in the crash.At first,the people of Roswell weretold that a flying saucer had crashed.Shortly afterwards theywere told that it was not a flying saucer but a weather balloon.Idecided that the only way I could learn the truth about flyingsaucers was to investigate（调查）them myself.I have done a lot of research and although I still haven,tdiscovered the truth about Roswell,I have discovered the truthabout hundreds of other UFOs.A lot of UFOs are actually armyplanes or weather balloons,while others turn out to be naturalphenomena（现象）like planets or comets（彗星）.By far thelargest number of UFOs turn out to be so-called fireball”meteorsslow-moving meteors that can take up to a minute totravel across the night sky.When F m investigating a UFO report,I arrange to meet theperson at the place where they have seen the flying saucer.Ilike to interview a witness at the scene and then takephotographs of the area.Then I speak to my contacts at localmilitary（军事的）bases and weather station,and then check thewitness details against my information.In about 95%of the cases F ve dealt with,the flyingsaucers turn out to be weather balloons,planes or naturalphenomena.That still leaves 5%of that,no matter what,justcannot be explained.32.The writer says that UFOs.A.always travel across the sky slowlyB.usually fly

saucer investigator.C.To describe how she discovered the truth about Roswell.D.To explain why she enjoys watching television documentaries.DPainting and writing on walls is nothing new.In prehistoric（史前的）times,people in Africa and Europe painted pictures ofanimals and people in caves.Graffiti has been found at ancientsites in Greece,Italy,Syria and Iraq.In the Roman town ofPompeii in Italy,archaeologists found a lot of graffiti written inLatin,including political and romantic messages,and evensome magic spells!In the 1970s,young people in New York used pens to writetheir names,or“tags,on walls around the city.One of the firsttaggers was Demetrius,a teenager from a Greek family.Hewrote his tag on walls in his neighbourhood and in subwaystations on the way to school.Other teenagers saw Demetrius stag and started writing their own tags on walls,buses andsubway trains all over New York.Then,some teenagers stoppedusing pens and started using paints.Their tags were bigger andmore colourful and appeared on trains,buses and walls aroundthe world.In the 1990s and 2000s,a lot of graffiti artists startedto make pictures too.In many countries,it is a crime to paint on walls and streetartists can have problems with the police.In other countries,street art is permittedn certain places.Nowadays,street art ismore popular with the public.In some cities,there
