24、I often feel I’m blunt (说话生硬的) when speaking Chinese. “Bu yao,” “Mei you,” “Bu ke yi”—all these expressions are commonly used to turn down offers in Chinese. Each time I use them, I fight with my desire (渴望) to use them with a few polite expressions like “Thank you,” “Excuse me” or “I’m sorry.”

However, it seems Chinese people do not consider bluntness impolite. Here is a familiar scene from my everyday life. A crowded subway train is about to pull out. Just before the door is closed, a passenger pushes against others and shouts “Off the train!” There was no “Excuse me” or “Sorry” to be heard. Among good friends, the grammar of politeness is almost the same. At a Chinese restaurant, a friend of mine cries “Give me the salt!” instead of saying “Could you give me the salt? Thanks.” After many years of training children in western table manners, I always want to remind him or her to add, “Please!”

My Chinese friends told me that they noticed westerners frequently (频繁地) use “Please” and “Thank you” when speaking Chinese. In fact, we use them much more than they imagined. A Chinese language teacher, Zhang Kaidi, says that in China, using “please” sometimes has the opposite effect (效果) of politeness. It adds a kind of space that says we need some formality (拘谨) between us.

My Chinese teacher Danny nodded his head when I asked him about this explanation. “Good friends are close. They are a part of you,” Danny said. “Why would you say ‘Please’ or ‘Thank you’ to yourself? It doesn’t make sense.”

The first Chinese term that westerners usually learn is “Ni hao.” The second is probably “Xie xie.” Perhaps more westerners should be taught about how the use of “Xie xie” really sounds to Chinese ears!

【1】How does the writer feel when refusing offers in Chinese?

A．Uneasy.

B．Proud.

C．Comfortable.

【2】What does the writer mean to do in paragraph 2?

A．Present an opinion.

B．Offer some advice.

C．Make a conclusion.

【3】What can we infer about using “please” from Zhang Kaidi?

A．It can express respect.

B．It can improve relationship.

C．It can cause misunderstanding.

【4】What did Danny think of Zhang’s explanation?

A．Unreasonable.

B．Acceptable.

C．Unbelievable.

【5】What does the text mainly discuss about “Thank You” and “Please”?

A．What they stand for in China.

B．How they sound to Chinese ears.

C．Why they are often used by westerners.

25、

27、Ever wondered what the inside of your stomach looks like? Now you can see it with a new invention — InsideOut. Inventors have used it to give patients who need endoscopy a real-time (实时的) video of their insides to help take the worry out of healthcare.

Endoscopy is a medical examination used in healthcare for doctors to look inside the body with a special camera to check for disease. By swallowing InsideOut — a tiny video capsule (胶囊), patients are given the chance to watch the video on a screen about their insides and “play” video-type games with their own body. It means that they can see the capsule moving inside their body and use their body to move it from side to side.

InsideOut is designed by Monash University, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) and Deakin University. Monash PhD student Zhuying Li helped design the technology and said it was about making patients see their healthcare in a different and fun light. “Patients usually can’t look at the inside of their body in real time. So what if they could?” she explained. “It made us think about if we could make a serious medical process more interesting.”

Endoscopy is common and simple, but it can often cause worry as patients don’t know what is happening inside. InsideOut can not only give patients a look at their own body, but also break down barriers (隔阂) between doctors and patients. Although it has only been tested in healthy people, researchers are hopeful it could soon be used in hospitals and even non-medical settings.

“In the future, we think patients in endoscopy can benefit from this and inspire future design to make other medical processes more interesting. And designers can be inspired to use technologies to let people know more about their body,” Ms Li said.

【1】Why did researchers invent InsideOut?

A．To take patients’ physical pain out of healthcare.

B．To shoot a video of patients’ insides.

C．To study the inside of the human body.

D．To let patients see their insides.

【2】What’s Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A．The way InsideOut works.

B．The worries the patients have.

C．The technology the researchers use.

D．The games the patients are allowed to play.

【3】InsideOut can ________.

A．free patients from endoscopy

B．help doctors find disease more easily

C．improve relations between doctors and patients

D．let people know about their physical condition clearly
