Do you know when and where ice cream was created? It has a long and interesting history.
The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago. People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink. Later, this idea travelled to Italy. Around 1660, it was popular to serve ice cream in coffee shops in Paris. Most of the shops were owned by Italians. Among them, the first successful one belonged to a man named Francesco Procopio.
Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favourite of Americans. President George Washington had ice cream pots(罐) and machines in his kitchen. Dolly Madison, the wife of President Madison,was the first one to serve it in the White House. She made her guests very happy when she served such desserts(甜品).
Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and kept at a very low temperature first. It took a lot of work to mix cream, eggs, fruit and ice. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines, invented the ice cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore, Maryland. Her business quickly came to other states.
Today in the United States, ice cream is not only a kind of food, but also a way of life.

In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. They′re not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is different from that in some Western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And Western hosts sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests.
In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person′s 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 host′s way of doing things is usual behaviour for a guest.
My wife′s mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn′t 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, but I must realise that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most 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 don′t be surprised if they say, “No, you can′t 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 rude hosts.
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, don′t be too surprised if they don′t bring you a gift.
In China, you probably won′t 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 houses, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.
( )5.Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the in the world.
A.best B.worst C.most natural D.most different
( )6.When a Western guest visits a Chinese family, he often .
A.buys some fruit B.feels like a god
C.wants some gifts D.takes a cup of tea
( )7.If the writer′s guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?
A.It′s OK if you smoke here. B.Let′s smoke together.
C.Sorry, you can′t smoke here. D.Smoking is a bad habit.
( )8.What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?
A.think back to B.get used to C.look forward to D.keep close to
( )9.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.
C
As we know, there are differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. 1___________.
Let's look at some words out animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, "a homeless dog", "a mad dog",a running dog and"a dog catching a mouse", have bad meanings. 2____________. In English, people use the dog to describe good actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And"every dog has its day"means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person's serious illness, they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired"means very tired. 3__________. But in Western culture, "cat"is often used to describe a woman who is unkind. There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.
The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some Western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
4_________. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.
A. But in Western countries, dogs are considered to be honest and good friends of humans
B. The words about plants and animals are used in good or bad ways in different cultures
C. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used
D. There are some similarities in the way words are used

“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in? " We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world
It's true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs
But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture. Students must also learn to live __________ parents' care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves. it is hard for students to study well.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?
We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China, Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher, He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.
