阅读理解

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?

③ Body language④ Face-to-face communication

A、②③④① B、④①②③ C、③④①② D、①②③④
(3)、What does the writer want to tell us?

(4)、What is the best title for the passage?

Ten years ago, I took up studying luck. I wanted to know why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while others always experience ill luck. Many people volunteered for my research. Over the years I interviewed them, watched their lives and had them take part in my experiments(实验).

I carried out a simple experiment to discover why there were differences in their ability to find lucky chances. I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were inside. I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying, "Tell the researcher you have seen this and win $50." This message took up half of the page and was more than two inches(英尺) high. It was looking at everyone straight in the face, but unlucky people tended to(倾向于) miss it and lucky people tended to notice it.

Unlucky people are just more nervous than lucky people. They are busy looking only for what they need and this stops them from noticing the unexpected. As a result, they miss out on chances. Lucky people tend to be more relaxed and open. They can see everything that is in front of them, rather than just what they are looking for.

My research shows that lucky people live by several principles(原则). Here are some of these principles:

* Listen to your gut instincts(直觉) — they are often right.

* Be open to new experiences and break your normal thought patterns.

* Spend a few moments each day remembering things that went well.

* See yourself being lucky before an important meeting or phone call.

阅读下列材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。

A few years ago,I visited theclassical gardens of Suzhou. During the visit, my attention {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(draw) away from the plants, bridges and stones, towards {#blank#}2{#/blank#} walls of the gardens. Mostly white, some parts of the walls are losing small {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(piece) of their coverings.

 This creates space in which light and plants can be seen. The walls are not only the boundaries of the gardens, but they also form protected roads {#blank#}4{#/blank#} guide you on a trip.

 The memory of the white walls stayed with me. I kept imagining how many shadows(影) could be collected {#blank#}5{#/blank#} them to dance with the light. This fantastic moment was so {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (live) that I came back to explore with my camera.

{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(walk) freely with these walls and their marks, I began to feel like collecting all the stories that {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(be) painted there. Weather and time have turned these amazing white walls into Chinese landscape paintings.

I {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(take) the photos during the month of June, just after the rain. The air was full of small   drops of water, showing the light and the color of the things around. As color was born out of a dance between light and a body, when photographing in color I found {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(I) enjoying a moment of this dance.
