One weekend, the club organized a trip to a special school for disabled teenagers. When Liu Ming first arrived, he felt a little nervous. He worried he could not get along with those students. To his surprise, the students there were warm and active. Some of them were blind, some were deaf, but none of them lost hope for life. Liu Ming was paired with a 15-year-old girl called Xiao Ning. She lost her sight when she was little, but she loved reading and listening to music very much. Liu Ming read stories to her and talked about school life with her patiently.

During the activity, Liu Ming saw many disabled teenagers practise sports repeatedly. They fell down many times but never gave up. They showed great courage and strong confidence in themselves. Liu Ming was deeply moved. He realized these young people faced more difficulties than others, yet they still lived positively. From then on, Liu Ming changed a lot.

They come from all walks of life, including students, office workers and retired people. They are ready to spend their spare time sorting goods, cleaning shelves and serving customers patiently. They never get paid for their work, but they feel happy and proud to do something useful for society. Many people like shopping in charity shops now. They think the goods are cheap and in good condition. Reusing second-hand things is also environmentally friendly and helps cut down waste. Besides, shoppers feel they are doing a small good deed while shopping. Charity shops also hold small voluntary activities on weekends.

It appears not only among young students, but also can be seen in some adults around us. In school, some students run and shout loudly in hallways, leave rubbish everywhere, and talk with their mouths full of food. Worse still, quite a few students use dirty words casually in daily communication. They speak rudely to teachers, quarrel with classmates over tiny things, and show no respect to others. In public, some people still cut in line, push past others rudely, and make loud noise in libraries, hospitals and other quiet places. Some even damage public facilities and pay little attention to the feelings of the elderly and strangers. This common phenomenon reminds us that good manners are slowly being ignored in modern life. As a matter of fact, good manners are never small or unimportant. They are the symbol of one's personal quality and self-cultivation. To improve the situation, schools should give more lessons on manners and set clear rules. Parents must set good daily examples for their children. For us teenagers, we should stay away from bad language, correct bad habits bit by bit, and try to behave politely anytime and anywhere. Developing good manners carries deep and far-reaching meaning. It helps us build friendly relationships with others, create a harmonious living environment, and even shapes the cultural image of our society and country. Politeness is not just simple daily behaviour, but a valuable quality that we should learn, keep and pass on all our life. 33. What is the main problem talked about in Paragraph 1? A. How to follow school rules B. The lack of good manners among people C. How to communicate with classmates D. The importance of school education 34. Which bad behaviour is mentioned in the passage? A. Using dirty words casually B. Reading quietly in the library C. Waiting in line politely D. Showing respect to teachers 35. What can we infer from the third paragraph? A. Good manners are only needed for students B. It takes joint efforts to improve the bad situation C. Parents have no duty to influence their kids D. School rules can solve all manners problems 36. Who should work together to change the situation? A. Only school teachers B. Schools, parents and teenagers C. Only teenagers themselves D. Only adult people in society 37. What is the far-reaching meaning of good manners? A. It can make people become rich quickly B. It is only helpful for students at school C. It influences personal relations, social environment and cultural image D. It has nothing to do with the whole society 四、信息还原（本大题共4小题，每小题2分，共8分） Since everyone likes to be around people with good manners, one can never learn too much about manners.

For thousands of years, they have guided people's daily behaviour, focusing on respect, modesty and politeness — respecting the elderly, being modest and humble anytime, and keeping polite social communication. In ancient times, people followed strict rules in greeting, dining, visiting and public activities. These etiquette norms helped keep order and build warm and harmonious relationships between people. With the fast development of society, modern lifestyle has greatly changed people's way of communication. Some complicated and rigid traditional etiquette is too formal and time-consuming for today's fast-paced life. Young people prefer simple, casual and convenient ways to greet others and get along with each other. As a result, some old formal manners are slowly fading out of daily life. Even so, the inner spirit of traditional manners is still priceless and never out of date. We should neither refuse traditional manners blindly nor copy all the old rules mechanically. The best way is to realize the perfect connection of traditional etiquette and modern civilization. We inherit the fine traditional values and give up those useless outdated forms. Good manners are the mirror of one's personal quality and social civilization. Only when we carry forward the essence of traditional manners and match it with modern daily life, can we develop proper polite behaviour suitable for the times. It is also our duty as teenagers to pass on fine etiquette culture from generation to generation. 42.What do Chinese traditional manners focus on? 43.Why do some old manners fade out now? 44.What is still priceless and never out of date? 45.What is the best way to deal with traditional manners and modern ones? 46.What duty should teenagers take on? 六、语法填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Traveling to a foreign country can be exciting, but it can also be challenging 47.____________ you don't know the local customs.
