About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly ther
11、e was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at seaand looked embarrassed. No one had told them about the
12、British custom of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus. Learning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You wi
13、ll probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man sha
14、king his head at another to show that he doesnt agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty . In that country, you shake your head to mean yes a nod means no. At a meal in countri
15、es on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top. In Europe it is quite usual to
16、cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble. Also, you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult its just not done in Thailand. 21. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of
17、 the way, because the gentlemen _. A. were foreigners B. didnt have tickets C. made a loud noise D. didnt line up for the bus22. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country, you should _.A. learn the language of the country B. understand the manners and cust
18、oms of the country C. have enough time and money D. make friends with the people there23. In India it is considered impolite _.A. to use the right hand for passing food at table. B. to pass food with the left hand. C. to eat food with your hands. D. to help yourself at table.24. To cross ones legs a
19、t an important meeting in Europe is _. A. a common habitB. an important manner C. a serious trouble D. a bad manner25. The best title for this article is _. A. Peoples Everyday Life B. Mind Your Manners C. Shaking and Nodding Head D. Taking a Bus in England BHave you ever been to a national park lik
20、e Yellowstone, Yosemite or Glacier? How about the moon?Thats a trick question, of course. First of all, if youre a kid, Im absolutely certain youve never been to the moon. After all, only a dozen grown-ups have ever walked on the moons surface. And the last one did it in 1972. Second, the moon is no
21、t a national park. But if two US women get their way, it might become one. Eddie Johnson and Donna Edwards have introduced a bill that would create the Apollo Lunar Landing Sites National Historic Park.Why should a park be on the moon? After all, you cant just get into a car and drive there on vacat
22、ion. But in the not-so-distant future, you might be able to fly there. Private companies are working on ways to transport tourists to the moon. And there are concerns that some careless visitors might mess up some of the historic sites up there - sites such as the astronauts footprints and other thi
23、ngs they left behind.Some people think the bill is a good idea. “Its a good idea because the moons environment is very fragile,” said David Paige, a scientist. “Any disturbance to the soil there will last for millions of years.”But others think its kind of silly. For one thing, how are you going to
24、make sure that the moons historic sites are truly protected? After all, there are no park rangers to enforce the law up there. And theres another big problem: the moon does not belong to the United States - or any other country, for that mater. So in order for the United States to create a national
25、park on the moon, it would need to get permission from lots of other countries. And that might not be as simple as it might sound.Still, Johnson doesnt consider her bill frivolous. “I dont think that there is anything far-fetched about protecting and preserving such items and such a place,” she said
26、.26. What is the function of the two questions asked in the first paragraph? A. To introduce the topic the author wants to say B. To remind the readers to pay attention to the technology C. To introduce a special national park on the moon. D. To help develop the readers interest in national parks.27
27、. According to David Paige, _. A. tourists are not allowed to disturb the soil on the moon B. creating a national park on the moon will be meaningful C. a national park will be created on the moon sooner or later D. the moons environment will be ruined after tourists arrive28. Those who are against
28、this bill think that _. A. other countries should be invited to build a national park on the moon B. the Us government have no right to build a national park on the moon C. more visits to the moon will certainly ruin the historic sites D. policemen should be sent to the moon before tourists arrive29
29、. It is implied in the passage that _. A. many people have been to the moon since 1972 B. the purpose of the bill is to promote space travel, C. careless visitors are not welcomed to visit the moon D. building a national park on the moon is far from reality30. The underlined word “frivolous” in the
30、last paragraph can be replaced by _. A. serious B. foolish C. wasteful D. sensitiveCIn many American schools the holiday celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday is used as an opportunity to teach children about his life and legacy. But in too many of those same schools, Black childrens extr
31、aordinary talents are still being wasted today. Nearly three-quarters of Black fourth and eighth grade public school students cannot read or compute at grade level. Black students made up only 18 percent of students in public schools in 2009-2010 but were 40 percent of students who received one or m
32、ore out-of-school suspensions (暂被停学). A Black public school student is suspended every four seconds. Black students are more than twice as likely to drop out of school as White students. Each school day 763 Black high school students drop out.So I applaud the U.S. Departments of Education and Justic
33、e for their recent action to address harmful school discipline policies that push so many thousands of black children out of school each year and into the juvenile justice and adult prison pipeline. If the education system is to do its part in replacing it with a cradle to college, career and succes
34、s pipeline, we must end the current practice where children in the greatest need are suspended from school mostly for nonviolent offenses.These resources, officially known as “guidance,” will help schools and districts meet their legal responsibility to protect students from discrimination on the ba
35、sis of race, color or national origin as required under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As we recognize the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and so many other important hard-won victories in the Civil Rights Movement this year, we must remember those victories could be lost
36、 without meaningful enforcement of the laws advocates fought so hard to win half a century ago.While the guidance does not prohibit schools or districts from using any particular nondiscriminatory policy, it does call into question some policies that have historically excluded Black students and are
37、 of questionable educational value including “zero tolerance” discipline policies which require mandatory consequences for certain infractions (违反), and policies that prevent students from returning to school after completion of a court sentence.Information of the new guidance recommendations is ava
38、ilable at this government website for almost every school and district in the country. Check your own school district now to see whether the discipline policy is focused on creating a positive school climate and preventing misbehavior, whether consequences are clear, appropriate and consistent, and
39、whether there is a commitment to fairness in the application of discipline.31. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. Life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. B. Unsatisfactory situation of Black students education. C. The percentage of Black students dropping out of school. D. The
40、 holiday celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday. 32. The guidance issued by the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice may _.

A. have questionable consequences B. are prohibited by the guidance C. prevent Black children from being absent from school D. w
42、ere considered discriminatory when they were released 34. What is the authors attitude toward these “guidance”? A. negative B. optimistic C. approval D. indifferent 35.
