Could you please give me some help?I am not sure whether I will live in a house or in an apartment. On the one hand, a house will be too big for just one person, so maybe I should rent an apartment, On the other hand, if I rent a house, I could find someone else to share with me. The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me. I prefer to have my own space. The city has some nice apartments, but they are also too expensive. However, if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate, that would make it more affordable. I just need to search for a roommate who is neat and quiet. You know I can not live with someone who is loud and messy. I do not have a car, so I also need to think carefully about the location. I probably need to look for somewhere near a bus stop or an underground station. That way I will have more time to study and spend less time travelling.Im looking forward to your reply.Love,Victor（1）Victor feels excited because he can decide where to live. （2）Victor wants to share the house with a(an)neat and quiet person. （3）If Victor finds a roommate, he will waste money. （4）Victor doesnt have a car, so he wants a two-bed-room apartment （5）Victor also needs to think carefully about the location. 4. （10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳選項(xiàng)。 In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts(主人) and the worst guests in the world. Theyre not really bad guests, but because the guest- host relationship in China is much more different than in some Western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And Western hosts sometimes look rude (粗魯?shù)? in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost likes gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese persons home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the West, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wifes mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesnt smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non - smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly ( 直接地), but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, Is it OK if I smoke? But, dont be surprised if they say, No, you cant smoke. In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some Western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, dont be too surprised if they dont bring you a gift.In China, you probably wont need to change the guest -host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If Western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected. （1）Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the in the world. A . bestB . worstC . most naturalD . most different（2）When a Western guest visits a Chinese family, he often .

Get used to.D . Look forward to.（5）What is the main idea of this passage? A . Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B . Hosts must do things in the guests way.C . Western hosts are always nice to guests.D . People should understand cultural differences.5. （10分）閱讀理解 Children laugh often and easily. But as we grow up, we laugh less and maybe feel unhappier.

During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In Western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century. _. A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000years ago. He made it from wood. _He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book. _We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we dont, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper. _We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles
