    America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while - then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸)sometimes deeply into both families.
    Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality(好客) easily.
    Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine(事务). They will be likely to expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
    For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

(1)、The writer of this passage must be_______.

A、an American B、a Chinese C、a visitor D、a student
(2)、Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A、Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break B、Americans are usually more friendly than Chinese C、Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy D、Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
(3)、From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will be_______.

A、warmly welcomed at the airport B、offered a ride to his home C、treated hospitably at his home D、treated to dinner in a restaurant
(4)、The underlined words "generous with our time" in Paragraph 3 mean_______.

A、strict with time B、willing to spend time C、careful with time D、free with time

The Chinese language has a history of 6,000 years. But Pinyin, which tells {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (we) how to read Chinese words correctly, is still young.

In 1958, Chinese linguist Zhou Youguang and his team made Pinyin. Before that, Chinese people used many other ways to show how to pronounce Chinese characters, but these ways couldn't be used as {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (easy) as Pinyin. Because of Pinyin, more people learn how to read. It is {#blank#}3{#/blank#} helpful system that improves Chinese language learning for all.

 This year, Pinyin turns 66 years old. It {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (use) everywhere in our daily life. We learn to speak Putonghua with the help of Pinyin. We write Chinese words on {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (computer) by using Pinyin. It is also becoming a bridge {#blank#}6{#/blank#} China and the world. Many people around the world start to learn Chinese by learning Pinyi {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you may say "nihao" to mean "hello" to a foreign friend.

Now, many people in other countries are {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (interested) in using Pinyin than before. For example, fewer foreigners use "dumplings". They prefer to say "jiaozi". The Oxford English Dictionary has {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (hundred) of Chinese words in Pinyin, such as wanggou for "shopping online". Maybe one day, Pinyin will play a key role in {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (spread) the Chinese language.

Hi, everybody! We' re the Phryges, the mascots of the Paris 2024 Olympics and Paralympics(残奥会). We' re red - hats that come from a famous French painting made in 1830. In the painting, a young lady wears a red hat, called the" Phrygian cap(弗里吉亚帽) ," which stands for freedom. French people love this hat, and it shows up on their coins and stamps. Why are we mascots this time? The designers say we stand for France and the power of sports!

The Paris Olympics are full of exciting things to see! You can click the button to get more information. Here are some of the fun stuff.

Purple Running Track

For the Paris Olympics, the athletics track will be purple for the first time in Olympic history. This special track can help athletes perform better and even break records. When the Games start, a lavender(薰衣草) color will fill the stadium, bringing a special French style.

Medals

The medals are round in shape with a hexagon(六角形) at the center. The hexagon of every me dal is a piece of iron from the Eiffel Tower. The leftover metal of the tower was stored secretly for years. The emblem(会徽) and the Olympic five rings are on it. Fine lines project(投射) outward around it, making each medal look like a shining sun.
