Tears filled my eyes as I saw the empty（空的） hall. Just then one of the staff members appeared. He said he was a guard there and asked 7 if I needed any help. Then he led me down a long hallway.

When you are free, it’s a good way to relax 1 . It’s a good chance for you to know about foreign cultures as well. However, 2 a stranger, you might lose your way in a foreign country.

In English, “Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” are similar requests, but the first could sound 2 (polite). In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when 3 (talk) with different people. If you say to your teacher “Where is my book?”, this will sound rude. B 4 if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know where my book is?”, your question will sound much m 5 polite. On the o 6 hand, it might be all right to say “Where is my book?” in some 7 (situation), perhaps with people you know well. And you would not usually say, “Peter, lend me your pen.” To order 8 (direct) like this can sound rude in English. Usually in English polite questions are 9 (long) and include the extra language, such as “Could you please …?” or “Can I ask …?” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please l 10 me your pen?” Sometimes we might even need to spend some time leading into a question or a request. （2） 请用适当的词完成下面的短文，并把所缺单词填写在答题卡指定的位置上。每个空只能写一个形式正确、意义相符的单词。 When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help politely. For 1 , you may ask “Where is the supermarket?” or “Could you tell me where the supermarket is?” Both are correct, 2 the first one sounds less polite. So we need to learn how to be polite when we ask 3 help. Good speakers change the way they speak in 4 situations. It 5 on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other. It’s OK to ask your friends directly. 6 , it’s not polite to ask your teacher a question like “When is the school trip?” Usually polite questions are 7 . The request like “Peter, tell me your email address.” is not polite, because the expression is short. But the request like “Peter, could you please tell me when the school trip 8 ?” is more polite, and the expression is longer. Though it seems more difficult to speak politely than directly, it’s important to learn how to use 9 right language. This will 10 you communicate better. It’s a necessary skill when you go to a foreign country. （3） 请用适当的词完成下面的短文，并把所缺单词填写在答题卡指定的位置上。每个空只能写一个形式正确、意义相符的单词。 A gift is necessary when one is invited to visit friends in China. After greetings, the gift should 1 (pass) to the host at once. Remember that usually Chinese people will not open the gift in front of the person 2 gives it. To show respect (尊敬), it may be necessary 3 (explain) what the gift is. Bringing some tonics (补品) to the elders in the family is a good idea. You can also prepare some small gifts for the partner or kids of the host. The host usually makes full 4 (prepare) by carefully tidying up the house and cooking a lot of delicious dishes. 5 the meal is well prepared, the host may say to the guest politely, “Please excuse me for my poor treat.” 6 a guest, you should make the host believe that there is plenty to eat by admiring the food. While eating, the elders will use chopsticks to pick up food for guests as a 7 (traditional) and ask them to eat more. You should accept their goodwill readily. But nowadays, the younger people do the traditional way 8 (little). After dinner, tea and fruit are usually served. When the guests want to leave, the host may still politely ask them to stay. They don’t have to take it 9 (serious) and they can try to find a good time to leave. This doesn’t mean that 10 (leave) early is always a good idea as the host may feel that the guests are not satisfied with the treat. Finding the right time to leave depends on the situation. （4） 请用适当的词完成下面的短文，并把所缺单词填写在答题卡指定的位置上。每个空只能写一个形式正确、意义相符的单词。 When you walk on the road and meet people asking for directions, what will you do? Aesop, an ancient Greek fable writer, was a very wise and 1 man. One afternoon, Aesop was walking on a road. Suddenly, a man came to him and asked the 2 in a hurry. “Excuse me!” The man asked 3 , “Could you please show me the way to the city? And how long does it take to get there on foot?” Aesop used his finger to point out the direction and said, “You have to walk.” “Thank you,” the man said, “I know I have to walk 4 I have no means of transportation. And I want to 5 you how long it will take me to walk to the city.” Aesop nodded and said again, “You have to walk! You have to walk!” “Are you playing a 6 on me?” The man was very 7 at Aesop’s words and walked away quickly. But Aesop was not angry at all. He 8 the man closely. After a while, Aesop shouted to the man, “Two hours.” “ 9 ?” The man looked back and asked. “I mean it will take you two hours to walk to the city.” “Then why didn’t you tell me just now?” The man asked unhappily. “Because,” Aesop said slowly, “I didn’t know your walking 10 , how could I know how long you needed?” The man was moved by Aesop’s seriousness. If we are as serious as Aesop about our study and life, we will benefit a lot. （5） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，用所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。在填写答卷时，要求写出完整单词。(每空限填一词) Last May I stayed in a famous city for a week.
