21、People often talk about cultural differences between western and eastern countries, but how about the western world itself? Surprisingly, a closer look at it can reveal a good many curious details.

The most obvious characteristic of the majority of Americans is that they smile a lot. It does not matter whether they have a strong reason to smile; they do it, sometimes simply because they have to. A smile is not just a powerful marketing tool but also a way to show that someone is friendly, and that life in general is fine. Europeans, on the contrary, prefer to keep a more neutral (不带感情色彩的) facial expression. They smile mostly when they are in a good mood, or feel amused; if not, a European’s face will remain neutral, or even dull. In Russia, for example, there is a proverb, saying that laughing for no reason is a sign of a fool. It does not mean that Europeans are serious, or that they do not have a sense of humor.

The same refers to communication in general. Americans are extremely communicative; small talks and chats are common. Europeans talk mostly when there is something to say, and rarely enter communication just for the purpose of talking to other people. American people prefer to express what they think carefully, considering how it might affect surrounding people. Europeans are more straightforward, even with unfamiliar people. A European friend will almost always voice his opinion on different occasions, and will not hesitate to remind you that you need to lose some weight or take a shower.

It can be said that Americans are people of contrasts. They are open-minded, flexible, and ready to accept everything new enthusiastically; but at the same time, American society manages to bring up unbelievable conservatives. Americans are extremely politically correct, which, in most cases, is indeed a secure and beneficial practice, but it can also mess up daily or even private communication, sometimes preventing having close relationships. Europeans, on the contrary, are more straightforward, preferring to tell the truth in direct ways. Each way of communication is different—neither is correct or incorrect.

【1】What does the author say about smiling?

A．It is a powerful marketing tool across cultures.

B．It is culture-related within western countries.

C．It is thought of as a sign of a fool in America.

D．It is regarded as a social necessity in Europe.

【2】What is typical of Europeans’ communication?

A．Beating around the bush.

B．Hiding their feelings carefully.

C．Expressing themselves openly.

D．Having small talks and chats.

【3】What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?

A．Being politically correct.

B．Being straightforward.

C．Accepting everything new.

D．Raising unbelievable conservatives.

【4】How is the text mainly developed?

A．By making comparisons.

B．By analyzing cause and effect.

C．By classifying body language.

D．By discussing research findings.

22、   When the young donkey Daisy May came to us, she was pregnant. With no donkey experience , I was unprepared for what might come next.

After some difficulty, Daisy's baby was born. I thought the poor thing was dead. I planned to put the loss behind us and make sure she never got pregnant again. Just then, I heard a little noise. I couldn't believe that baby was breathing and looking at me! We called him Samson, and of course I became his mother as much as Daisy was.

When Samson was nine months old, I had to separate Daisy and Samson for a few hours a day to wean （使断奶）him, but otherwise he went wherever she did. I think she would be lost without him. His donkey stepdad Bernard taught him to always be ready to have fun. They enjoy playing football together and going for a roll on a hot summer day.

I asked a worker to make a harness （马具）for my three little donkeys. When I brought it home I taught them one by one how to pull a cart. Samson watched and freely followed Daisy. When he was three, I put the harness on him and he knew exactly what to do.

That was 15 years ago. Now, the most exciting thing about Samson is that he has become a little renowned. People come from all over to see him perform. The neighbors bring their grandchildren, and my sons bring their friends.

Samson shakes hands, unties my shoe, picks up a hat and more. And when I ask him if he has any bad habits, he tries to pick my pocket! He surprisingly learned these tricks himself. I just ask him to do them and he understands.

The relationship I have with my "baby" Samson has been an amazing experience. Every day is a fun day with this superstar donkey.

A.strange. B.proud. C.humorous. D.famous.

【4】Which of the following can best describe Samson?

A.friendly and courageous. B.intelligent and lively.

C.carefree and creative. D.patient and fortunate.
