I was by no means fluent, but I could hold a conversation. So when I asked a local ice-cream seller in downtown Guadalajara when he expected a new delivery of chocolate ice cream, and he said "ahorita,n which directly translates to n right now J I took him at his word, believing that its arrival was imminent.I sat near his shop and waited, my Englishness making me feel it would be rude to leave. Half an hour passed and still no ice-cream arrived, so I timidly wandered back to the shop and asked again about the chocolate ice cream. nAhorita,n he told me again, dragging out the 4' sound in “Ahorita." His face was a mix of confusion and maybe even embarrassment.I was torn. Waiting longer wasn't appealing, but I felt it was impolite to walk away, especially if the ice cream was now being delivered especially for me. But finally, after waiting so long that I'd built up an appetite for dinner, dark clouds appeared overhead and I made a rush for the nearest bus to take me home. As I left, I signaled up at the sky to the ice cream seller to let him know that I obviously couldn't wait any longer and it really wasn't my fault. His face was, once again, one of total confusion.As I sat on the bus, rain pattering on the windows, I replayed the conversation in my head and decided indignantly that the ice cream seller was a liar.This incident faded from my memory until years later when I came back to live in Mexico. I discovered that cracking what I came to call the nahorita code'1 took not a fluency in the language, but rather a fluency in the culture.When someone from Mexico says nahorita,n they should almost never be taken literally; its definition changes dramatically with context. As Dr. Concepci6n Company, linguist and emeritus researcher at the Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City, told me, "When a Mexican says 'ahorita/ it could mean tomorrow, in an hour, within five years or never.'1nAhorita llego,n which directly translates to “I am arriving right now,“ in fact means "I will be there in an indeterminate amount of time/' while "ahorita regresoH (nI will be right back") means nI will be back at some point but who knows exactly when.* nAhoritan is even used as a polite way of saying "no, thank you” when refusing an offer. Even after almost seven years in Mexico, this response can still catch me off guard when I'm hosting friends; I find myself hovering, unsure if I should get my guest what I offered them or not.21. How did the author understand the ice-cream seller's HahoritaH in Paragraph 1 ?A. He should wait outside the ice cream shop.B. He could have the ice cream at a low price.C. The ice cream would be available immediately.D. The ice cream was coming at an indefinite point of time.22. What does the underlined word "Englishness" mean in Paragraph 2?A. The English accent.B. The English culture.C. The English expression.D. The English humor.23. Why did the author keep waiting near the shop?A. He was waiting fbr the bus to arrive.B. He was asked by the Mexican to wait.C. He thought it was improper for him to leave.D. He wanted to know what Mexican ice-cream looked like.24. What is the author's advice to a foreigner who hears nAhoritan in Mexico?A. To simply ignore it as a joke.B. To treat it as a friendly greeting.C. To translate it into his own language.D. To try to understand it in context.C. An Englishman's Trip to MexicoD. Ice Cream: Mexicans* FavoritePassage 2Worldwide, 2.2 billion adults and children suffer from health problems related to being overweight or obese, according to a new study funded by the Gates Foundation. In all, about 30 percent of the world's population is affected by weight problems, with 10 percent listed as obese. People were classified as overweight iftheir body mass index was in the 25 to 29 range, while obesity is defined as anyone with a body mass index of 30 or more.

Among the 20 countries with largest population, the highest level of obesity among children and young adults was in the U.S., at nearly 13 percent. Egypt topped the list for adult obesity at about 35 percent, while the lowest rates were in Bangladesh and Vietnam, respectively, at 1 percent.The U.S., with 79.4 million, had the most obese adults, followed by China.

That was “the most worrisome finding11 in the study, according to an editorial that accompanied the report. That suggests future increases in diabetes (糖尿病),high blood pressure, and other health problems in much of the world. Obesity, inactivity could outpace smoking in cancer death risk.The massive study, which involved more than 2,000 health experts, included 195 countries and territories and covered the years 1980 through 2015. HPeople who shrug off weight gain do so at their own risk risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and other life-threatening conditions/ said study co-author Dr. Christopher Murray.26.
