Building Bridges Through Cultural Exchange
Last summer, our school organized an international camp with students from six countries. At first, many of us felt excited but also nervous. Lin Tao asked, “How can we communicate well with people from different cultures?”
During the opening ceremony, each group presented their traditional festivals. Maria from Mexico introduced the Day of the Dead with colorful drawings, while Yusuf used music to explain Egyptian celebrations. Their creative ideas impressed everyone. Our Chinese team worked together—some made paper cuttings, and others told stories about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
We learned important lessons about cultural differences. At a shared meal, Tom accidentally passed food with his left hand. Ahmed kindly explained that in his culture, this is not polite. Instead of feeling upset, Tom thanked him. This taught us to respect different customs.
One of the best activities was the “Culture Shock Debate.” Students discussed topics like school uniforms and holiday traditions. Li Mei, who used to be shy about her rural dialect, confidently shared her New Year customs.
By the end of the camp, we understood that learning about cultures isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being open-minded and respectful. As the saying goes, “The world is a book, and those who don’t travel read only one page.”
1.Why were the students nervous at first?
A.Because they didn’t like summer camps.
B.Because they were worried about communicating with foreigners.
C.Because they didn’t want to make new friends.
D.Because they preferred staying at home.
2.How did Maria present the Day of the Dead?
A.With colorful drawings. B.By singing a song.
C.By writing an essay. D.Through a dance.
3.What did Tom learn when he passed food with his left hand?
A.Left-handed people are special. B.Some cultures consider it impolite.
C.Everyone should eat with their right hand. D.It doesn’t matter how you pass food.
4.How did Li Mei feel after the “Culture Shock Debate”?
A.More embarrassed. B.Angry at her dialect.
C.Proud and confident. D.Uninterested in traditions.
5.What is the main lesson they learned from the camp?

B.We should avoid cultural differences.

Body language is important in communication. However, the same body language can have very different meanings in different cultures. Here are some examples:
Nodding your head usually means “yes.” But in Bulgaria (保加利亚) and Greece, nodding up and down means “no.”
In the West, people like to look at each other when they talk. Strong eye contact is very common in Spain, Greece and Arab (阿拉伯的) countries. Finns (芬兰人) and Japanese are embarrassed (尴尬的) when others keep staring at them during a talk. They only make eye contact at the start of a discussion.
Tapping (轻敲) your nose means “secret” in England. In Italy, the same gesture means “be careful.”
In many cultures, like Italy and the U.S., people use their arms freely when talking. They often wave their arms around. Northern Europeans don’t like gesturing with their arms. They think it shows insincerity (不真诚) and is too dramatic (戏剧化的).
________
Sitting cross-legged is common in North America and some European countries. In many countries in Asia and the Middle East, sitting like this is not respectful.
1.According to the text, who might feel uncomfortable with strong eye contact during a conversation?
A.Greeks. B.Finns. C.Americans. D.Arabs.
2.What does “tapping your nose” mean in Italy?
A.“Be careful”. B.“Secret”. C.“I agree”. D.“Stop talking”.
3.Why do Northern Europeans avoid arm gestures?
A.Because they think it makes communication unclear.
B.Because their culture prefers silent communication.
C.Because they believe it shows insincerity and is too dramatic.
D.Because they want to save energy during conversations.

Gerald Hamilton is a schoolboy. He had a series of brain surgeries (手术) after he was born. The tenth surgery has left him with some developmental problems (发育问题).
Gerald turned nine years old recently. He wanted to have a birthday party with the other kids in his class. He sent out thirty invitations, and twelve kids said they would go to the party.
However, nobody showed up. Gerald’s mother called the parents of those kids. All of them said that Gerald was “too different for their kids to play with”.
Gerald and his family were very sad. Many people in their neighbourhood heard about this. They visited Gerald and brought him gifts and cards. Their neighbour Mrs. Patterson showed up with a lemon-flavored cake and an old astronaut helmet that belonged to her grandson. For three days, people kept coming to show kindness: Teenagers taught Gerald how to play a glowing 3D chess game. Mr. Jenkins brought six excited kids from the local youth center to cheer for Gerald.

进阶拓展训练5篇
Body language is a very important part of communication, but do you know the same gesture can mean different things in different countries?
Nodding your head usually means “YES”. Especially in Japan, nodding and bowing are the ways that locals show their agreement and respect. But in Bulgaria (保加利亚) and Greece, nodding up and down means “NO.”
Strong eye contact is very common in Spain, Greece and Arab (阿拉伯的) countries. However, in Finland and Japan, too much eye contact is |considered rude. To avoid embarrassment, they often look at the other person’s neck or shoulders instead.
Tapping your nose means “secret” in England while it means “be careful” in Italy.
In many cultures, like Italy and the U. S., people use their arms freely when talking. However, Northern Europeans don’t like gesturing with their arms. They think it is too dramatic (戏剧化的). Similarly, in Japan, gesturing with broad arm movements is thought to be impolite.
Sitting cross-legged is common in North America and some European countries. But in Asia and the Middle East, sitting like this is not respectful.
The “thumbs up” sign is another interesting example. In the U. S., it usually means “good job” or “everything is okay”. But in some Middle-Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Iran, this gesture is very offensive. It’s like a very bad word.
Understanding these differences helps us avoid misunderstandings. When you travel or talk to someone from a different culture, pay attention to their body language. You can make a big difference in how well you communicate!

The skin is a super important part of our body, and it’s the biggest organ. The skin can help us control our body temperature and stop our body from losing too much water. And we can feel things because of our skin.
Lots of things can burn us. For example, hot liquids, steam, the hot sun, big fires, or all kinds of dangerous chemicals. So, the first and most important thing after getting burned is to give first aid.
Here are some tips:
Run under cool water: As soon as you get burned, quickly put the burned part under cool running water, especially in the first ten minutes. The cool water can stop the burning from getting worse and also make the pain and swelling less.
Dry gently: Use a clean cloth to gently dry the burned area.
Take off clothes carefully: If you need to, you can use scissors to cut off the clothes. But if you see the clothes sticking to the burned skin, don’t try to take them off by force.
Cover the wound: Cover the burned area with a loose and clean cloth. Never put oil on the burned place. Because oil will keep the heat in the wound and may cause an infection.
Check breathing: If the face is burned, make sure the person can still breathe normally.
Send to the hospital right away: If the person has second-degree or third-degree burns, you must send him or her to the hospital right away. These two kinds of burns are more serious and need doctors to deal with them.
Hope everyone can remember these first-aid tips for burns. Maybe they will be really useful someday!

What do you do if you find it difficult to get up early on a cold morning? Here’s some advice for you.
Get the body to move
To help you get up, you can put your alarm clock far from your bed. When it rings, you have to get out of bed to turn it off. Then, you can take a few minutes to do some warm-up exercises. This will help you wake up fully.
Change the lighting
A dark environment helps your brain to prepare your body for sleep. Therefore, you should make the light in your bedroom less bright and stop looking at your mobile phone screen at least for an hour before bedtime. In the morning, you can pull up the curtains (窗帘) to let in more light. This will stop you from falling asleep again.
Reward (犒劳)yourself

Managing online arguments
Social media is a great place to talk and share photos with friends. But sometimes, people can disagree and argue. Here are some tips to help you deal with online arguments safely and wisely.
Choose your words carefully: When you chat online, remember others can’t see you or hear your tone. Always think carefully about what you post or comment, including the emojis or GIFs you choose, so that others can understand you clearly.
Think before you answer: If a message makes you upset, take a short break before you answer. This helps you calm down and think about what to say next.
Talk in person: If a friend has upset you online, try talking to them face-to-face. It’s often easier to solve problems when you can see and hear each other clearly.
Ignore and report: Sometimes, people post mean comments just to upset others. It’s best not to reply to these comments. If someone is being very hurtful, you should report them to the website or tell an adult. Ignoring stops things from getting worse, and reporting helps keep the website safe for everyone.
Ask for help: If online arguments are making you feel bad, talk to someone you trust, like a parent or teacher. They can give you advice and help you feel better.

Emergencies don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.
In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.
Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.
When to call
Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.
When in an emergency call
When you dial the 911 operator, it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you?
Don’t hang up!
If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. In this way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.
A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help. She had been taught to use a speed dial function.
1.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.How to call 911 properly.
B.The origin (起源) and usage of emergency numbers.
C.The importance of not misusing emergency numbers.
D.A dog’s amazing act of dialing 911.
2.According to the passage, which of the following situations is NOT a proper time to call 911?
A.A house is on fire.
B.A person has a heart-attack suddenly.
C.Someone wants to know the time.
D.A car hits a pedestrian seriously.
3.When making a 911 call, you are advised to do all the following EXCEPT (除了) _________.
A.speak slowly
B.speak clearly
C.hang up immediately after reporting the incident
D.answer the operator’s questions like “Where are you?”
4.Why did the United States government choose 911 as the emergency number?
A.It was the most commonly used number at that time.
B.It was suggested by the public.
C.It was easy for people to remember and dial.
D.It was a number with special meaning.
5.Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A.911 is the only emergency number used in North America.
B.You can call 911 whenever you want to test if it works.
C.In Great Britain, people use 999 for emergencies.
D.A dog named Faith dialed 911 without any training.
6.If you don’t know the emergency number in your area, you should _________.
A.guess a number B.call 911
C.call 999 D.check the phone book

Building Bridges Through Cultural Exchange
Last summer, our school organized an international camp with students from six countries. At first, many of us felt excited but also nervous. Lin Tao asked, “How can we communicate well with people from different cultures?”
During the opening ceremony, each group presented their traditional festivals. Maria from Mexico introduced the Day of the Dead with colorful drawings, while Yusuf used music to explain Egyptian celebrations. Their creative ideas impressed everyone. Our Chinese team worked together—some made paper cuttings, and others told stories about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
We learned important lessons about cultural differences. At a shared meal, Tom accidentally passed food with his left hand. Ahmed kindly explained that in his culture, this is not polite. Instead of feeling upset, Tom thanked him. This taught us to respect different customs.
One of the best activities was the “Culture Shock Debate.” Students discussed topics like school uniforms and holiday traditions. Li Mei, who used to be shy about her rural dialect, confidently shared her New Year customs.
By the end of the camp, we understood that learning about cultures isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being open-minded and respectful. As the saying goes, “The world is a book, and those who don’t travel read only one page.”
1.Why were the students nervous at first?
A.Because they didn’t like summer camps.
B.Because they were worried about communicating with foreigners.
C.Because they didn’t want to make new friends.
D.Because they preferred staying at home.
2.How did Maria present the Day of the Dead?
A.With colorful drawings. B.By singing a song.
C.By writing an essay. D.Through a dance.
3.What did Tom learn when he passed food with his left hand?
A.Left-handed people are special. B.Some cultures consider it impolite.
C.Everyone should eat with their right hand. D.It doesn’t matter how you pass food.
4.How did Li Mei feel after the “Culture Shock Debate”?
A.More embarrassed. B.Angry at her dialect.
C.Proud and confident. D.Uninterested in traditions.
5.What is the main lesson they learned from the camp?

Nodding your head usually means “yes.” But in Bulgaria (保加利亚) and Greece, nodding up and down means “no.”
In the West, people like to look at each other when they talk. Strong eye contact is very common in Spain, Greece and Arab (阿拉伯的) countries. Finns (芬兰人) and Japanese are embarrassed (尴尬的) when others keep staring at them during a talk. They only make eye contact at the start of a discussion.
Tapping (轻敲) your nose means “secret” in England. In Italy, the same gesture means “be careful.”
In many cultures, like Italy and the U.S., people use their arms freely when talking. They often wave their arms around. Northern Europeans don’t like gesturing with their arms. They think it shows insincerity (不真诚) and is too dramatic (戏剧化的).

进阶拓展训练5篇
Body language is a very important part of communication, but do you know the same gesture can mean different things in different countries?
Nodding your head usually means “YES”. Especially in Japan, nodding and bowing are the ways that locals show their agreement and respect. But in Bulgaria (保加利亚) and Greece, nodding up and down means “NO.”
Strong eye contact is very common in Spain, Greece and Arab (阿拉伯的) countries. However, in Finland and Japan, too much eye contact is |considered rude. To avoid embarrassment, they often look at the other person’s neck or shoulders instead.
Tapping your nose means “secret” in England while it means “be careful” in Italy.
In many cultures, like Italy and the U. S., people use their arms freely when talking. However, Northern Europeans don’t like gesturing with their arms. They think it is too dramatic (戏剧化的). Similarly, in Japan, gesturing with broad arm movements is thought to be impolite.
Sitting cross-legged is common in North America and some European countries. But in Asia and the Middle East, sitting like this is not respectful.
The “thumbs up” sign is another interesting example. In the U. S., it usually means “good job” or “everything is okay”. But in some Middle-Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Iran, this gesture is very offensive. It’s like a very bad word.
Understanding these differences helps us avoid misunderstandings. When you travel or talk to someone from a different culture, pay attention to their body language. You can make a big difference in how well you communicate!
1.Tom is traveling in Greece. He asks a local, “Is there a bank nearby?” The local nods. What does this likely mean?

The skin is a super important part of our body, and it’s the biggest organ. The skin can help us control our body temperature and stop our body from losing too much water. And we can feel things because of our skin.
Lots of things can burn us. For example, hot liquids, steam, the hot sun, big fires, or all kinds of dangerous chemicals. So, the first and most important thing after getting burned is to give first aid.
Here are some tips:
Run under cool water: As soon as you get burned, quickly put the burned part under cool running water, especially in the first ten minutes. The cool water can stop the burning from getting worse and also make the pain and swelling less.
Dry gently: Use a clean cloth to gently dry the burned area.
Take off clothes carefully: If you need to, you can use scissors to cut off the clothes. But if you see the clothes sticking to the burned skin, don’t try to take them off by force.
Cover the wound: Cover the burned area with a loose and clean cloth. Never put oil on the burned place. Because oil will keep the heat in the wound and may cause an infection.
Check breathing: If the face is burned, make sure the person can still breathe normally.
Send to the hospital right away: If the person has second-degree or third-degree burns, you must send him or her to the hospital right away. These two kinds of burns are more serious and need doctors to deal with them.
Hope everyone can remember these first-aid tips for burns. Maybe they will be really useful someday!

Managing online arguments
Social media is a great place to talk and share photos with friends. But sometimes, people can disagree and argue. Here are some tips to help you deal with online arguments safely and wisely.
Choose your words carefully: When you chat online, remember others can’t see you or hear your tone. Always think carefully about what you post or comment, including the emojis or GIFs you choose, so that others can understand you clearly.

Emergencies don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.
In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.
Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.
When to call
Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.
When in an emergency call
When you dial the 911 operator, it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you?
Don’t hang up!
If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. In this way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.
A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help. She had been taught to use a speed dial function.
1.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.How to call 911 properly.
B.The origin (起源) and usage of emergency numbers.
C.The importance of not misusing emergency numbers.
D.A dog’s amazing act of dialing 911.
2.According to the passage, which of the following situations is NOT a proper time to call 911?
