Dreaming of becoming the youngest person to enter a university, Pete sent letters to university professors（教授）to see if it was possible.

One day, the doorbell rang. When Pete opened the door, he was so delighted to see his hero - Professor Jackie. The two talked for a long time, exchanging ideas. The professor was amazed at Pete's wide knowledge. Before leaving, Professor Jackie asked, “Pete, tell me about your friends. What do you do for fun?” There was silence as Pete realized that he didn't really have any friends. Then, he said, "well, I don't have time for all that. I'm too busy with my studies.”

“Oh, that's a problem, Pete. You have to remember that the world is not just filled with ideas. It's filled with people.” Professor Jackie talked a bit more and said, “I have to go now, but I have a test for you.” When Professor Jackie got to university, he sent Pete a box with three objects in it. To Pete's surprise, inside were two baseball gloves and a ball. And there was a note saying "I want you to learn how to use them. You’ll want others to join you.

26、   As the global pandemic (大流行病) speeds up, many are wondering about the effectiveness of masks and when it's necessary to wear them. Most people from the East believe that wearing a mask is essential to control the spread of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). But people in the West generally would argue that, unless one is already ill, wearing a mask is simply unnecessary.

In Eastern countries like China, mask-wearing is ingrained in their cultures. In fact, people in the East wear masks not just to protect themselves from illness but also for a variety of other reasons.

In many Asian countries, masks are worn in many scenarios (情景) in daily life, such as doing housework or visiting patients in the hospital. They can give people the comfort of being protected. In recent years, they are worn simply for cosmetic reasons. Young people in Japan, for example, wear masks as a fashion statement, expressing their personal style through unique designs and patterns.

In Asia, wearing a face mask, deeply rooted in the culture, is also an outward expression of group-oriented values. With one's face partially covered, one becomes part of a giant collectivist (集体主义的) whole. "People communicated their responsibilities to the social group of which they were members," wrote Peter Baehr, a research professor in social theory at Lingnan University, Hong Kong. "By disguising an individual's face, it gave greater salience (突显) to collective identity. Just like we need to wear uniforms when we are at work or at school."

In Western countries, however, individual values are the most important. As a citizen, it is one's duty to prevent the spread of illness by following proper hygienic procedures, such as washing one's hands and limiting one's contact with others. However, a face mask is taken as something only for those showing symptoms (症状) of illness.

Whether from the East or the West, social culture and peer pressure have played an important role in one's decision about whether or not to wear a mask. That's because human beings are social creatures who take into consideration what other members of society think of us. The most important thing is to respect others' opinions, no matter how different they are.

【1】The underlined word "ingrained" in Paragraph 2 probably means "__________".

A.deeply fixed B.widely respected

C.greatly developed D.gradually accepted

【2】The third and fourth paragraph are written to show__________.

A.how people in Asia use masks

B.why people in Asia wear masks

C.what Asian culture and value are

D.when Asian culture and value work

【3】The writer probably agrees that__________.

A.wearing a mask is a good way to show one's personality

B.it is not necessary for those who are healthy to wear a mask

C.whether we choose to wear a mask is a reflection of our culture

D.westerners take wearing a mask as a useful way to protect themselves

27、   Many people love travelling to different countries, but if you plan to go abroad, you should know how to behave in different situations around the world.

Most travelers enjoy meeting new people, but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything. In Russia, you should never shake hands in a doorway, and if you’re travelling in Thailand, never touch people’s heads or point your feet at people. When the Japanese meet new people, they like giving business cards-but you should read the card carefully, not just put it in your pocket.

In most countries in Europe, people expect a lot of eye contact when you talk to them, but in many Asian countries, a lot of eye contact seems unfriendly. And in South America, people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk, but in countries like the USA, you need to give people more personal space. Also, it’s rude to interrupt Japanese people while they are talking to you. You must wait until they finish before you start speaking.

In restaurants in China, you can leave a bit of food on your plate, it’s OK to start smoking before other people finish eating, which you mustn’t do in the UK. When in India, remember to eat with your right hand. Also avoid leaving empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia—that’s bad luck.

When you’re travelling in Asia, if someone invites you to his or her home, don’t forget to take off your shoes when you arrive. And if you visit an Arab family’s home, don’t admire anything valuable because your host will feel he should give it to you as a present.

With so much to think about, it’s not surprising that many people prefer going on holiday in their own countries—or you might just decide to stay at home.

【1】What does the underlined word “interrupt” mean in Chinese?

A.跟随 B.附和 C.讨论 D.打断

【2】What is the correct order of the subheadings (小标题) from Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 5?

① Eating out② In the home

③ Body language④ Face-to-face communication

A.②③④① B.④①②③ C.③④①② D.①②③④

【3】What does the writer want to tell us?

A.Practice makes perfect. B.Where there is a will, there is a way.

C.Two heads are better than one. D.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A.Culture Shock B.Table Manners C.Public Rules D.Body language

28、   While being on my year abroad, I have tried to collect small things such as train tickets, postcards, and I have been taking lots of photographs. Living in 【1】 (法国), I take the metro (地铁) every day. I have my own personalized map on which I have 【2】 (圈出) all of my favorite restaurants, cafes, parks and other places. I have even colored it to say if these places have 【3】 (免费的) wi-fi or lunch deals. What I plan to do with all these things is making a scrap book.

For those of you who have never heard of the word “scrap book”, it’s an 【4】 (空的) book which people usually take away with them on holiday, and fill it with “scraps” of paper, tickets, maps, 【5】 (邮票), photographs etc. It is like a memory book. You will always have the memories of your favorite places and why you liked them so much, all in your scrap book! It is really 【6】 (有价值的) to own it if you ever want to 【7】 (回到) to that place. My scrap book started in September and after eight months was 【8】 (几乎) full!

Why not create a scrap book of your time while traveling? Isn’t it nice to be able to open a book of your life and time as a traveler? You can’t imagine how happy you can be by just looking at an old ticket with a special 【9】 (日期) on, or a napkin from your favorite restaurant. It’s the little things that can make you smile and make your life full of 【10】 (快乐).

29、   I have five children, so our house is always noisy. Luckily, I love gardening and my garden helps me _______. For a long time, I _________ the garden of peace and quiet. When the children followed me into the garden, I would _________ them to be out of sight. And I would hand out tasks.

“Here: you water the onions, you dig the holes, and ...” Soon they would be hot or their arms would be sore, and they would leave me to myself.

But during a recent spring, _______ I was working in the garden, my 13-year-old son, Josiah noticed me. He ___________ a tool and began helping working as a team, we finished the job in no time at all. I thanked Josiah, realizing that I’d enjoyed working with him.

The same thing happened — one or two of the _______ would appear and join in the gardening from time to time. Each time, I would feel surprised that the work was _______because of their help.

One day, when I was picking the peas(豌豆) and having a taste _______, Abby saw me and ran over. I put several peas into her mouth. She just loved _______ delicious they were.

“Mama, I want the others to try them too.”

Suddenly, I realized I had been wrong for long. I tried to keep the ________ of gardening to myself, and here was a child who couldn’t wait to share with others. “Sure, honey, let’s pick some.”

Now I enjoy all of the garden’s beauty with the children. We bring the fruits back home, preparing and cooking the produce(农产品) together, because we know that everything is better when shared.
