But in cities, many people don't greet their neighbours, even when they are standing in line at a supermarket. A recent study shows that greeting neighbours, especially up to six people a day, is really good for you. The study has found that greeting others can make you happier. The magic number is six. When you greet up to six people, your happiness score goes up. After that, the score shows no further rise. The study was carried out last year and got replies from more than 4,000 people. It tested people's social happiness, physical happiness, community happiness and more. People who greeted six neighbours had a much higher happiness score than those who didn't greet anyone. You might think that saying hello is only about social happiness, but that's not true. Regular(经常的) greetings also improve your physical and community happiness. ____▲____ If you feel your community is safe, it's more likely for you to talk to people. Walking around your neighbourhood can make you feel better physically. Dan Witters, the leader of the study, said, "We don't mean that you should know people well. Just stop and talk to them. The more people you greet, the more chances you have to start a conversation." Remember, saying hello regularly is a good way to improve your own happiness. 26. How does the writer lead into the topic? A. By telling a story. B. By explaining the reason. C. By asking a question. D. By introducing different actions. 27. Which of the following shows the change in happiness score after people greet neighbours? 28. Which sentence can be put in "____▲____”? A. That's because all of these are joined together. B. It's best to greet your neighbours in the morning. C. Different neighbours can greet you in different ways. D. The reason is they have nothing to do with each other. 29. What can we learn from Dan Witters' words? A. The more people you know, the happier you are. B. Saying hello may help people start a conversation. C. Nothing improves happiness more than conversations. D. Knowing people is more important than greeting them. 30. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The differences between village life and city life. B. The importance of knowing neighbours well in cities. C. The good points of greeting neighbours in our daily life. D. The useful ways to help people get to know neighbours. B Many years ago, a young man called Jim wanted to study the violin at a famous school in France. He practised for a long time and went to the examination with hope. However, he failed the examination. Jim was upset. He had no money left and hadn't eaten anything since the night before. He was hungry and left the school with his violin. Outside, he saw a busy street filled with people. He stopped under a tree, fixed his clothes, and took out his violin from the violin case. He left the case open and began to play. As Jim played, beautiful music filled the street. People stopped to listen, drawn in by the lovely sounds. After a while, Jim could no longer stand his hunger. He picked up his case to collect money from the big crowd, and many people began to put money in his case. However, one man took money out and threw it at Jim's feet. Instead of getting angry, Jim picked up the money and handed it to the man. "Sir, you dropped your money," he said kindly. The man, surprised, threw it back down on the ground. "Since I've already given you money, you must take it!" he said in an unfriendly way. Jim thought for a second, bowed, and said, "Thank you for your help, sir. Just now-your money fell to the ground, and I picked it up for you. Now, my money is on the ground-could you please help me pick it up?" The man was shocked. The people around began to cheer for Jim's words.

Today, many of these rules are not as strict as before. However, some are still followed on important occasions (场合) and are thought of as good examples of good manners. Walking Etiquette ①In ancient China, while walking with someone with a higher status()or an old person, one should lower one's head, bend down, and walk a little bit behind them. If three people walk together, the elder or a teacher should be in the middle. One should bow down and walk fast using smaller steps when passing by an elder or a teacher. Sitting Etiquette and Seating Rules ②Everyone should be sitting in a proper position1at dining tables. It is based on their titles, ranks, or age. If someone doesn't know the exact position, they should wait and follow the host's lead. The best seat is the one that faces the east or the door. Hosts usually sit facing the west. Bow, and Fist-and-Palm Salute(抱拳礼) ③Bow, in Chinese Yi Li or Zuo Yi, means having their hands folded in front in different ways. Today, however, the simplest Zuo Yi gesture is good enough, as well as nodding, smiling, and handshaking. ④The Fist-and-Palm Salute, is another type of Yi Li, with the fist's right hand covered by the left hand. It first appeared in the army when people held weapons(武器) while showing respect to others. So, people always use the left hand to cover the right hand that holds weapons. 36. In ancient China, which place should your teacher be when walking with you and your classmate? A. In the middle. B. On the left. C. On the right. D. At the back. 37.

Even so, in this passage we bring you several Chinese customs and traditions that you should know. Here we go! Chinese usually do not show their feelings openly, also avoiding any unnecessary body touch. The Chinese see badly that people kiss each other on the face, even if they are women. In fact, shaking hands was also not so acceptable in the past. For them it is enough to make a small nod when greeting. As the country gradually(逐渐地) lets Western traditions in, people are used to shaking hands to greet, Many food manners must be followed strictly at meals. Some details should be paid much attention to by both guests and hosts. In China, the older guests are always seated first, and then others can take their seats. Food manners are also very important. You should never serve yourself a drink. It should be served by someone else. Chopsticks should never be placed upwards in food. And to eat, never put your mouth away from your own bowl. The Chinese have the habit and skill of being able to sleep anywhere at any time. It doesn't matter if it's on the break from work, in the middle of the street or waiting in a supermarket. This Chinese custom has nothing to do with laziness, quite the opposite. In China, sleeping for a short time in public places is considered a symbol of effort, For example, thousands and millions of netizens(网民) will give a photo of a sleeping doctor in the corner of the operating room a "like" to show their respect to the doctor. So, this person has been putting a lot of effort into his work and it is right that he should sleep as he likes. Many of you have already known it's polite not to open gifts in public. But that's not the only important thing to know when receiving gifts in China. For example, the Chinese will always refuse your gift up to three times to show they are well educated. But in the end, they're willing to accept it. And remember not to receive the gift with only one hand.

Dirty words are harmful to both the speakers and listeners. Listeners will feel uncomfortable while speakers will surely leave a bad impression on others. Nobody is willing to make friends with those impolite students. To help students who speak dirty words stop this bad habit, we have much to do. First of all, family members and teachers can have a talk with them, making them realize their problem and the harm. What's more, we can make rules to help them. When they say dirty words, we remind them. When they use clean words, we praise them. By doing these. I am sure dirty words will be stopped! 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
