Have you ever seen lions dancing in the streets The lions dance to the beat of a drum(鼓). Of course, they are not real lions. They are dancers in lion costumes(服饰). Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year. Usually, a lion is made up of two dancers. One dancer controls the head.

“Anyone can take up lion dancing. You have to believe that you can do it,” says Ananda Tang Lee, a 17 year old girl.
Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a team's sense of community will never change. “We call it a family,” Ananda says. “It's really great, because we always have each other's backs. ”

Two years ago,I got a job in a Chinese Canadian company in Vancouver. One day my new boss said he would invite me to lunch to celebrate my new job in a Chinese restaurant. “A Chinese restaurant?Chopsticks Oh no!Will I make a complete fool of myself?”I thought.
That evening,I cooked noodles and spent two whole hours trying to learn how to use chopsticks. Try as I might,I didn't succeed. I called my penfriend and asked her to explain exactly how to use chopsticks. She patiently explained the proper way of holding them. “Louise,it's not that hard,”she said. “That's easy for you to say,”I replied. “You've been eating with chopsticks all your life. It's natural for you!”
I didn't sleep well that night. The next day,when my boss took two co workers and me to the restaurant,he spoke to the server in Chinese. My heart was beating fast,but then I noticed something strange. Instead of chopsticks,we all had knives, forks and spoons. I didn't understand at first, but then, it hit me. My boss knew that I would have trouble with chopsticks. To save me from embarrassment (尴尬), he had arranged for us to be served with knives, forks and spoons. I couldn't believe how thoughtful he was.
Now, we often go out for lunch. After a lot of practice, I've mastered how to use chopsticks. And it isn't really that difficult once you get used to it.
63. Louise felt ____ when her boss invited her to a Chinese restaurant.
A. excited B. nervous
C. angry D. surprised
64. How long did Louise spend practicing using chopsticks that evening
A. An hour. B. Two hours.
C. Three hours. D. Four hours.
65. Where does Louise's penfriend most probably come from
A. China. B. Canada.
C. India. D. America.
D
When I first went to Britain, a lot of things seemed strange to me. For example, people drove on the left side of the road and many people carried an umbrella all the time. There were also many other things that I found really __▲__.
The first thing I noticed was how polite British people were. When I got on the bus, the driver would greet me; when people got off the bus, they would say “Thank you” to the driver; when I went into a shop, I would be greeted by a smiling salesman who would say, “Can I help you?”
The family I stayed with were very nice, but their house was full of oddities (怪现象). Firstly, there were carpets (地毯) everywhere, even in the bathroom. Also, the bathroom was full of surprises. The first time I tried to wash my hands, I burned myself. The cold and hot water came out of different taps (水龙头)! Then, when I tried to dry my hair I couldn't find a socket (插座) for my hairdryer. Maybe that wasn't such a big surprise. The most surprising was the fact that British people didn't take their shoes off when they went into a house — can you imagine
I guess that for British people all of these things are normal. It's only when you visit a foreign country that you realize that what you think is normal is not. Normality depends on where you are.
66. The best word for __▲__ is “____”.
A. successful B. traditional
C. exciting D. surprising
67. What happened when the writer first tried to wash his hands in his host family
A. He burned his hands.
B. He couldn't find the tap.
C. There wasn't any water in the tap.
D. There was only cold water in the tap.
68. What does the writer think is normal to do when entering a house
A. To take your hat off.
B. To wash your hands.
C. To take your shoes off.
D. To leave your umbrella out.
69. How does the writer develop the passage
A. By telling a short story.
B. By providing some examples.
C. By showing different opinions.
D. By comparing research results.
E
I was taking a photo of my Chinese friend. Suddenly she put two fingers up at me. “Why are you doing that?” I shouted. It took a long time before she realized why I was unhappy. Showing someone two fingers means Chinese say “cheese” to the camera. It is not harmful in China, but in fact it is very rude in the UK.
Language differences may not only come from grammar and sounds, but also may be from different understanding of gestures (手势). Perhaps you should know that waving (挥舞) one hand across your face means “you are crazy” in Germany. However, tapping one finger on the side of your head shows the same meaning in the UK. If you don't understand the meanings of the gestures clearly in different countries, you may make big mistakes!
The idea of gesture mistranslation is very common in our daily life. A man travels around South America. He uses the sign of the circle made into by a thumb (拇指) and a forefinger (食指) to mean “that's OK”, and everyone looks excited and smiles back. Then he shows the same gesture to a man in Brazil, and everyone falls silent, because in Brazil this means he is rude.
Therefore (因此), understanding different cultures and meanings can help us avoid many mistakes in our daily life.
70. One day the writer was ____ when the Chinese friend put two fingers up.
A. taking a photo
B. drawing a picture
C. doing some shopping
D. walking the dog
71. Which of the following pictures means “you are crazy” in Germany
72. What may happen if you can't understand the meanings of the gestures clearly
A. Everyone looks excited and polite.
B. We may make big mistakes in our daily life.
C. Everyone falls silent because it is rude.
D. We won't make any gesture mistranslation.

阅读下面的短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
F
The real difference between China and Western countries at the dinner table is that in the west you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed in the middle of the table and everyone shares.
If you are being treated to a formal Chinese dinner and if the host thinks you are in the country for the first time, he will do his best to make you taste many different types of dishes.
The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup is then served followed by rice, noodles or dumplings.
Perhaps one of the things that surprise a Western visitor most is that some Chinese hosts like to put food onto the plates of their guests. At formal dinners, there are always “public” chopsticks and spoons, but sometimes some hosts may use their own chopsticks. They think this is a sign of real friendship and politeness so it is always polite to eat the food. People in China like to over order food, because they will find it embarrassing if all the food is eaten up. Of course, if they can't eat up all the food, they will take it home.

四、 Dear listeners, welcome to our weekly program The World Voice. I'm your host Lisa. Last Saturday, we talked about some famous food around the world. This week, we're going to talk about some interesting New Year customs in different countries.
In Denmark, people always stand on the chairs and then jump off when it is 12 am. They also throw plates at their friends' doors during the night to show their care and love. Dutch people like to light fires under their Christmas trees, and eat round food together. They think eating round food can bring them good luck. In some countries in South America, people wear bright colored clothes to get good luck—red for love and yellow for business success. That's all for today's program. Thank you for listening.

十、One possible version:
Dear Mark,
You must be excited about coming to China soon. Let me give you some suggestions and advice about Chinese customs.
When you are eating at the table, it's impolite to stick your chopsticks into your food. You're supposed to put them on your plate or bowl. Don't point at anyone with your chopsticks. Don't make noise when you drink your soup.
In our house, you're supposed to speak to the old politely. When you greet the host and the other family members, you shouldn't kiss or hug them. Instead, you're supposed to shake hands with them.
When you go out with people, you should tell the host where you are going and who you are going with. It's important to come back home by 10: 00 p. m. or the host will worry about you.
Have a good trip and I look forward to meeting you soon!
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
