Speaking to strangers was not encouraged. People were most hospitable（好客的）and friendly.However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different.I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelling, one afternoon, from Genoa to Florence. Sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat - it had not been “spare” after all. I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language, but he, too, realized my genuine mistake. He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey. The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome amongst them. I feel that if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American culture. I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in near silence. Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone elses privacy. However, when I travelled across the United States, whether by plane or Greyhound bus, I was never short of conversation. Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they were strangers or not.1. What do we know about the occupants when the author was travelling in Italy?A. They were all on the side of the gentleman.B. They all laughed at the author for his mistake.C. They would not bear a mistake like the authors in public.D. They showed their understanding of the authors mistake.2. How does the author probably believes the Italian people are?A. Cold B. Rude C. Helpful D. Hospitable3. Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph?A. They were too tired to speak.B. They were all strangers to each other.C. Privacy was a valued tradition in England.D. Everybody was deeply lost in thought.4. What can be the best title for the text?A. Different Ways of Hospitality and PolitenessB. My Unforgettable Travelling Experience AbroadC. Co-understanding Each OtherD. The Importance of PrivacyBThe sharing economy, represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law.Airbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services.The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy.But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law.Airbnb can also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to ensure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections.Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations, the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will lose by bearing an additional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors.The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disputes over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related services flood the market, they could harm all taxi drivers ability to earn a minimum wage.This downside of the sharing needs to be taken seriously, but that doesnt mean the current tax and regulatory structure is perfect.5. What is the positive thing about the sharing economy? A. It is a global trend.B. It is beyond regulations.C. It draws on spare resources.D. It brings in modest profits. 6. What is the problem with Airbnb customers according to the passage?A. They are not regularly inspected. B. They are likely to commit thefts.C. They are allowed not to pay taxes.D. They can be noisy to hosts neighbours. 7. What is the argument over Uber according to the passage？A. Whether it guarantees customers safety.B. Whether it provides reliable services.C. Whether it lowers customers expenses.D. Whether it can compete with standard taxis.8. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs?A. Existing regulations and laws.B. Necessary improvements of current laws.C. Further development of Airbnb and Uber. D. More downsides of Airbnb and Uber.CThis weekly four-day physical activity schedule will get your kids excited about being active.TuesdayWhen the kids get home from school, dont let them go straight to the TV and get settled in. Encourage them to get moving and get off the couch（沙發(fā)）by giving them a pedometer（計(jì)步器）. Pedometers are the most fun when parents also use one because that turns stepping, walking and running into a game to see who can get the most steps.ThursdayThe kids have done a great job so far this week, but now they long for a little more TV time. Instead of turning on cartoons, let them watch fitness movies made just for kids. These movies encourage watchers to get up and dance along to kid-friendly music.SaturdayGet the whole family out of the house together and over to a park. Bring lots of sports equipment, pack a healthy picnic and have a family competitive sports day. Kids and adults get into groups and play against each other in tennis, basketball or soccer. After everyone has played hard for a couple of hours, stop for a picnic and then if your family isnt too tired, go back and play some more.SundayEvery child loves to play video games and there is no better time to allow kids to play them than on Sunday when no homework is due. But dont let them play a game that forces them to sit down for hours. Dance games with a floor mat（墊子）to help kids follow the dance moves are popular to kids.9.

ThursdayDAfter four silent years, the 27 -year-old British singer Adele Adkins has finally introduced herself to the world again with Hello, the opening song from her third album 25, which will come out on Nov. 20. Although Adele is a very successful singer now, music wasnt always what she saw herself doing. At age 10, when she saw her grandmothers pain over the death of Adeles grandfather, she pictured herself as a heart surgeon. “I wanted to fix peoples hearts,” she told the UK music website i-D, remembering the childhood interest shed had in biology classes until she found out that her real talent was for singing.

After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, she made it clear with her label that she would spend “four or five years” making her next album. She told magazine. “I wont come out with new music until its better than 21.” Instead of seeking fame, Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside. In her free time, she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom, American Horror Story, and The Walking Dead. Living life as normally as possible is important to the singers art. “Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone whos not living in the real world,” Adele told i-D. “So I live a low-key life for my fans.” 12.

Thankfully, its a condition that is totally preventable.Snow blindness is a painful, temporary loss of vision due to overexposure to the suns UV rays.

The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He _44_ (try) six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to _45_ (encourage) by this and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the _46_ (invent) of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked _47_ he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have no failure. Now I know 50,000 ways that wont work.So what?
