25、A habit is a usual practice. Everyday activities become habits for most people. For example, Mark wakes up every morning and reads his newspaper with a cup of coffee. People in different countries have different cultures. Cultures have certain habits as well. In North America there are many habits which are different from those

in other countries. The way we eat is one example. An American might eat toast (烤面 包) or eggs for breakfast, but in Asia people might eat rice and soup for breakfast.

If someone’s habit troubles you, it is called a pet peeve (不能忍受的事). A pet peeve can be considered rude by another. Cross-culturally you’ll find many different pet peeves. Spitting (吐痰) on the street or bumping into (碰到) someone without

saying ―excuse me‖ might be considered rude. Wearing improper clothes or saying something at the wrong time can also be a pet peeve.

In the United State it is rude to cut in line, which means to step ahead of someone who has been waiting longer than you. Americans will generally form a line if more than two people are waiting. There seems to be an unwritten rule of first come, first served, which gives order to large groups. When traveling to a foreign country, it is a good idea to find out which habits may be considered pet peeves by the native people. When in Rome do as the Romans do is another expression that reminds us to follow the customs or habits of the local people.

【1】According to the passage, the way we eat shows .

A.our eating habits are changing

B.we should follow the habits of the people there

C.the local people can help you to find out good ideas

E.the local people can serve us our favorite food and drinks

26、When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I looked to the east---the sky was becoming grey. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a dark path. There was nothing to see, but I knew it was there.

After about a mile, a stranger appeared beside the path. “Am I going the right way?” I asked. He knew where I was going. “Yes, “he replied, “you’ll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it.

Suddenly, the rain stopped and the clouds cleared. The sun rose behind me and shone on the rocks. Far below me, the ground fell away and down to a river. I was looking across one of the wonders of the natural world ___the Grand Canyon.

I looked down to the Colorado River, a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still would not reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. It was about fifteen miles away, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away for more than 200 miles. The Grand Canyon was not just big. It was huge!

I remained by the canyon for about half an hour, and I asked myself, “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder of the natural world?” I certainly know the answer. What do you think?

27、

After saying goodbye to Captain Black-eye Jack and One-legged Rosie, Jessica decided it would be a good idea to paint some pictures to help her remember them.

While the paintings dried, Jessica noticed a long line of trucks driving into the park and stopped in a large playing field. “Vanessa Feather’s Famous Flying Circus,” Jessica read out.

“If we joined the circus, we would be able to travel around and have adventures,” with the thought, Jessica marched up to the two children, a boy and a girl who were practising.

“Hello,” she said. “My name’s Jessica and this is Zebedee. We thought your act was fantastic and we’d like to join your circus to be acrobats.”

“Hi, I’m Shula,” said the girl. “Mum’s the ringmaster. You’ll have to talk to her if you want to join us.”

“Well,” Vanessa said after listening to Jessica, “we’d be happy to teach you to be an acrobat if you seem good at it. Why don’t you have a go on the swing now?”

Jessica reached the top of the pole, took hold of the swing, sat down and pushed off. However, she was so afraid that she was stuck.

Vanessa helped her down kindly. “I’m so sorry,” said Jessica, when she had stopped shaking.

“Now, don’t worry, you never know if you can do something until you try,” said Vanessa. “Stay with us for a while. There are plenty of things to do on the ground.”

During her stay with the circus, Jessica painted pictures of her new friends.

When it was time for the circus to leave, Jessica and Zebedee felt very sad. They watched the truck disappear.

As it was raining, Jessica decided to go into the shopping mall. They sat down on a bench, and Jessica took out her paintings to remind them of the friends they had made.

“Zebedee, how are we going to make our way in the world?” As they sat lost in thought, a crowd came around the pictures.

“I’ll have that one, dearie,” a voice said. “The one of the man with the patch. He reminds me of my brother Jake. How much?”

“Oh it isn’t for…” began Jessica, and then she noticed the crowd. Suddenly she had a wonderful idea.

“£10,” she said loudly.

“I’ll take it,” said the woman.

It seemed everyone wanted a picture. Lots of children had been to the circus and wanted a picture of their favourite act. An old lady took two portraits of Zebedee. A young man wanted the portraits of One-legged Rosie.

Soon Jessica had no pictures left, but she did have quite a lot of money.

“Look at this,” she cried. “We can make our way in the world and have adventures after all.”

28、   There are many online food shopping sites. Things l【1】 CDs, books, and DVDs sell well online. But it is quite different to sell food online b【2】 people like to see food with their own eyes. It is very i【3】 for people to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. Customers like to c【4】 their food by its color. They also want to touch and smell it. Some people like going to the same shop to buy food with good quality.

Boxes of fruits and vegetables have been delivered to h【5】 around Britain for a few years now. Dried or canned foods are almost the same all the time, but fresh things are not.
