21、I have a rule for travel-never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction.

Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”

In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”

People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.

People in Mexico never answer “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!

One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!

【1】What do you think the word “landmarks” means? It means ________.

A．street names

B．building names

C．hotels, markets and bus stops

D．buildings or places which are easily seen

【2】In which place do people tell distance by telling time?

A．Japan.

B．The American Midwest.

C．Los Angeles, California.

D．Mexico.

【3】Which of the following is wrong?

A．Travelers can learn about people’s customs (习俗) by asking questions about directions.

B．People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by telling time.

C．A person’s body language can help you understand directions.

D．People in different places always give directions in the same way-they use street names.

22、   Colors are very important in our life.We can see different colors in different places.Sometimes colors are called warm，cold or neutral(中性的)colors.Red and yellow are warm colors because they make us feel warmer.They also make the walls seem nearer to us than they really are.Blue and black are cold colors.They can give us different feelings.We feel cooler and the walls seem to be farther away.Neutral colors don't affect our feelings.Brown and gray are both neutral，but they may also affect our feelings when we put them into warm or cold colors.

It's important to choose the colors we want.Red may be very good for a restaurant，but it could be wrong for an art gallery，because people want to see the pictures，not the walls behind.White can make a small room look bigger.If your room is very small，you can paint the walls white.

Sometimes the same color expresses different feelings.For example，people wear white clothes when their relatives die in the countryside in China.But in many places the couple wear white clothes on the wedding days.

【1】What color is a kind of cold color?

23、Dear Zhang Hua,

Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia. I’ve been in Thailand for a few days with my parents. We are here for a holiday.

Now we are staying in Bangkok（曼谷）. It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to visit. Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city. They are great! This morning we went shopping. Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry（珠宝）and clothes. My mother bought a nice necklace; my father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.

Thailand is called “Land of Smiles” because people here are very friendly. And it’s true! When we eat in the restaurants in Bangkok, the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling. Thai food is delicious, but it is sometimes a little spicy（辛辣的）for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came to live in Bangkok many years ago. Chinese food is very good, and it isn’t as spicy as Thai food. Our American food can also be found in Bangkok. However, I don’t eat it. You know, I’d like to try new things when I travel.

The weather has been very hot. Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler. But today it’s hot again.

Yours,

Mary
