23、   Last Friday, a storm swept through two villages in the New Territories (新界), breaking fourteen homes apart.

24、"Mabel, Mabel, strong and able, keep your elbows off the table." I was only 3 or 4 years old when my mom taught me this little rhyme (雅韵诗). She taught it to teach me polite table manners.

I wish learning table manners as an adult were that easy. However, each country has its own table manners and knowing all about them can give you a headache.

For example, knowing how much food to eat can be tricky (复杂的). In China I quickly learned that if I finished all the food, others would invite us to have more. It is polite to leave a bit of food on the dishes. In Finland, however, your host would be troubled if you left any food on your plate.

If you're in America and you do want more food, don't reach across the table for it. That would be considered uncivilized (没有教养的). Instead you need to ask someone to pass you the dish.

What would you do if you walked into a restaurant and all the tables were full? In Germany or China, you might share a table with strangers. People in America, however, like more personal space better. They may think you strange if you sit at their table.

And after your meal, should you leave a tip? In some countries a tip is included in the meal price. In America, you need to leave extra money on the table to thank your server for the service.

Before you travel to a new country, be sure to pick up a good book on culture and customs. Take time to watch how the local people act and imitate them.

【1】Which of the following countries is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. China.   B. Finland.   C. Germany.   D. Japan.

【2】In America, you should___________.

A. ask someone to pass you the dish if you want more food

B. share a table with strangers

C. leave extra money on the table as a tip

D. Both A and C

【3】When you go to a restaurant full of guests in the US and sit on a seat with a man you

don't know, they will find_________.

A. you are very friendly   B. you are very kind to others

C. you are very strange   D. you are very clever

【4】What does the underlined word "imitate" in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. To look at someone or something for a long time and not move your eyes.

B. To copy the way someone or something looks, sounds or behaves.

C. To make jokes about.

D. To put something down.

【5】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. A tip is needed in some countries.

B. It's easy to follow table manners in different countries.

C. Each country has its own table manners.

D. You'd better eat all the food on your plate in Finland.

25、阅读短文，根据首字母、音标及语境提示，在横线上填入适当的单词，使短文语意连贯，意思完整。

Should parents ask their children to 【1】 chores? Some believe that children should not do chores. They think that children are too young 【2】 cook or clean for t【3】 or their parents. But many people believe that children can learn a lot from doing chores. Parents should help children learn to do the h【4】. Most experts agree. However, the chores should suit（适合）children. Parents shouldn’t, of course, ask a schoolboy to cook when he is doing his h【5】. If the child has activities 【6】 school, they may have short time to do chores. M【7】 more chores on weekends can be helpful. When a child does what his parents ask him to do happily, he will probably have a strong feeling of 【8】 [ˌsætɪsˈfækʃn]. Chores can be u【9】. They are a teaching tool （工具）. Parents use the tool to teach children so that they can take care 【10】 themselves someday.
