I.阅读理解
In a foreign country,a man visited a local restaurant.He didn't speak their language.He
ordered something indecipherable(难以辨认的)off the menu.When the waiter brought him a
plate of delicious looking fried noodles,he smiled and made an OK sign at the waiter with his
thumb and forefinger linked in a circle.Looking angry,the waiter then picked up the dish and
thrown it to his lap.What he did wrong,he wondered.Well,nothing is quite as it seems when it
comes to using hand gesture in another country.
Gestures have been used to replace words in many countries,and they are often specific to a
given culture.Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture,but is highly offensive
in another.
The gesture "thumb-up"is commonly misinterpreted.In English,it is popularly known as
"thumbs up",despite the fact that the action is commonly performed with only one hand.Eng-
lish-speaking Caucasians use it to signal "OK",which is the same meaning as OK ring gesture.
The two can in fact be used almost interchangeably.
Avoid using this gesture in Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight.While Ameri-
can,British and Australian would use the thumb-up to signal hitch-hiking to the drivers,this
message will not encourage a Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.
There are no right or wrong signals,only cultural differences.Lack of cultural understand-
ing will lead to disharmony among people from different cultures.When we know what to look
for,such encounters with other cultures are actually very interesting,fascinating and fun.It is
certainly a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.
1.What did the man in the first paragraph do wrong?
A.He misunderstood the waiter.
B.He didn't realize cultural differences.
C.He ordered something off the menu.
D.He made the signal in a rude way.

4.What's the purpose of the passage?

Ⅱ,七选五
Whether at school,college or work,most of us take some sort of lunch break.1 But here
lies the dilemma-what to eat?There are a feast of options but because of limited time or
money,many of us stick to what we know-usually the humble sandwich.
Some of us make our own sandwiches in the morning before heading out,while those in a
rush tend to grab-and-go at a snack bar or a cafe or buy a meal deal at a supermarket.A packet of
crisps may be an additional staple to our predictable lunch.2 Sheila Dillon from the BBC
Food Programme says more than a third of office workers have eaten the same midday meal for
the last nine months.
3 With average lunch hours now reduced to 25 minutes,24 seconds,it's quick and con-
venient to eat.But it's also boring!Some people have broken the mould by bringing in leftovers
from their previous night's dinner,which they then heat up in a microwave but even that isn't
very exciting.
We are creatures of habit.But philosopher Julian Baggini says,"We're never going to break
out of our midday malaise unless we think outside the box."4 With just a microwave and a
kettle,there a number of hot satisfying meals can be made such as soups and jacket potatoes.And
then there are the common instant noodles in a pot-although you may question how nutritious
they are.
If you've got time for more exotic food,then look out for trendy'Ottolenghi'style food such
as fava bean salad wrap.There is also the healthy Japanese style 'bento box'or lunchbox that
normally contains a mix of carbohydrate,protein and vegetable.5
A.What we eat is usually the same every day.
B.There are alternatives that will fill you up.
C.And of course another healthy Japanese treat is sushi.
D.Too many wrong decisions can be a recipe for a nutritional disaster.
E.It's a good time to have a rest,catch up with friends and eat some food.
F.In the UK,bread has become the mainstay of our lunchtime snack,sometimes eaten at your
desk.
G.Then it's time for the next dilemma-what to have for dinner?What do you usually eat for
dinner?
