21、   Clothes play an important role in our daily lives. They protect us from the strong wind in cold winter and keep us from the high heat in hot summer.

Clothes can show many things about a person. They can stand for a person’s social status（地位）, his likes and dislikes, his hopes, dreams and so on.

Old people prefer to wear traditional clothes, while young people might like to choose fashionable（时尚的）ones. When a little boy puts on a “soldier’s” uniform, he may want show that he wishes to become a PLA man when he grows up.

Clothes will continue to develop（发展）to satisfy our personal tastes. They will become more comfortable, colorful and fashionable. People will find in the market more clothes they like to show their personalities（个性）.

22、"Mabel, Mabel, strong and able, keep your elbows off the table." I was only 3 or 4 years old when my mom taught me this little rhyme (雅韵诗). She taught it to teach me polite table manners.

I wish learning table manners as an adult were that easy. However, each country has its own table manners and knowing all about them can give you a headache.

For example, knowing how much food to eat can be tricky (复杂的). In China I quickly learned that if I finished all the food, others would invite us to have more. It is polite to leave a bit of food on the dishes. In Finland, however, your host would be troubled if you left any food on your plate.

If you're in America and you do want more food, don't reach across the table for it. That would be considered uncivilized (没有教养的). Instead you need to ask someone to pass you the dish.

What would you do if you walked into a restaurant and all the tables were full? In Germany or China, you might share a table with strangers. People in America, however, like more personal space better. They may think you strange if you sit at their table.

And after your meal, should you leave a tip? In some countries a tip is included in the meal price. In America, you need to leave extra money on the table to thank your server for the service.

Before you travel to a new country, be sure to pick up a good book on culture and customs. Take time to watch how the local people act and imitate them.

【1】Which of the following countries is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. China.   B. Finland.   C. Germany.   D. Japan.

【2】In America, you should___________.

A. ask someone to pass you the dish if you want more food

B. share a table with strangers

C. leave extra money on the table as a tip

D. Both A and C

【3】When you go to a restaurant full of guests in the US and sit on a seat with a man you

don't know, they will find_________.

A. you are very friendly   B. you are very kind to others

C. you are very strange   D. you are very clever

【4】What does the underlined word "imitate" in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. To look at someone or something for a long time and not move your eyes.

B. To copy the way someone or something looks, sounds or behaves.

C. To make jokes about.

D. To put something down.

【5】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. A tip is needed in some countries.

B. It's easy to follow table manners in different countries.

24、   It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible(有责任的) for housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.

If you give your children the impression(印象) that they can never do anything right, then they will treat themselves as unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent(独立).

My daughter Mary's fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel good When students received less than a perfect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and said they could learn what they had missed.

You can use the same way when you evaluate(评价) your child's work at home. Do not always scold but give lots of praise to your children instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn't done. If your child completes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
