He never shared. When his poorer neighbors came to his house and asked for food, he shouted, “Go away! It’s MY food!”One day Sally Squirrel had a birthday party. Bob was not invited but he saw Sally’s friends give her a lot of nice presents. “I’d like some presents,” thought Bob, so he decided to have a party. He went to a shop. “I need some party food,” he told the shopkeeper. “How much is a large bunch of bananas ”“It’s twenty-five dollars,” she said. Bob was surprised. “That’s too expensive. How much is a bottle of honey ”“A bottle of honey is twenty-eight dollars,” said the shopkeeper. “A bottle of honey is more expensive…” Bob held up (举起) his paw (爪子). “I want the cheapest food,” he said. The shopkeeper gave him two black bananas and a small packet of cookies. “Good! These are cheap,” Bob smiled. “They only cost eleven dollars.”At the party Bob opened his presents — a bag of apples, five bottles of orange juice. “These are not birthday presents!” he shouted angrily.“We know you don’t like sharing so we were afraid there wouldn’t be enough food. That’s why we brought food,” said Fred Fox. “We are happy to share all we have with you because we want to be friends.” Bob’s face went red. “I’m sorry,” he said. “Let’s share this lovely food together, my friends.” From then on, Bob was never mean again.4．In paragraph 4, Bob held up his paw to ________.A．just say hello to a friendB．show that he wanted to ask a questionC．tell the shopkeeper to stop talking5．Why did Bob’s face go red at lastA．He was angry.

It is very common for friends to fight over who will pay the bill (账单), because treating others is seen as a symbol of respect and friendship. When eating, the host often puts food onto the guests’ plates to show they care. Chinese people usually book (预定) a private (私人的) room for important dinners.However, in Western countries, things are totally different. Let’s look at a few examples. In the United States, if friends eat out together, they often “go Dutch”. This means each person pays for their own food. It is not rude—just normal. In the United Kingdom, people have a different custom at pubs (酒吧). They like “buying a round”. One person buys drinks for everyone at the table. Then the next person buys the next round. This is a way to be friendly and fair (公平的). In France, it depends on the invitation. If someone invites you formally (正式地) to a restaurant, the host pays for everything. But if you just meet a friend for coffee, each person usually pays for their own drink.In China, paying for others shows warmth and closeness. In the US and France, sharing the cost shows fairness and independence. In the UK, buying rounds builds friendship step by step. None of these ways is wrong—they are just different customs.8．In China, why do friends sometimes fight over paying the billA．Because they don’t want to be polite.B．Because treating others shows respect and friendship.C．Because the food is too expensive.9．What does “go Dutch” mean in the United StatesA．The host pays for the whole meal.B．Everyone buys a round of drinks.C．Everyone pays for themselves.10．In the United Kingdom, what do people often do at pubs to be friendly and fairA．They buy a round of drinks for everyone in turn (轮流).B．They let the host pay for everything.C．They put food onto others’ plates.11．What is the main idea of the passageA．Chinese people are richer than Westerners.B．Paying for meals is the same in all countries.C．Different countries have different customs when inviting guests for dinner.In 1995, Zhou Qinggui was a 10-year-old boy from a village in Linyi, Shandong Province. He was expected to drop out of school after primary school because his family was poor. Zhou was upset. To allow the boy to continue his studies, his mother borrowed money, and his elder brother and younger sister both gave up schooling.In 2021, Zhou and six childhood friends raised (筹集) more than 80,000 yuan. They turned Zhou’s old 240-square-meter house into a library, named Siyuan Library. Village children could study and read there.“To improve the cultural climate (氛围), education is key, and building a library could be an important step forward,” Zhou wrote in his WeChat public account.“It should be a cultural space that can provide a wider spiritual (精神的) world for children to develop their confidence and enrich (充实) their knowledge, instead of a space for kids to finish their homework,” Zhou said.Zhou’s 70-year-old father manages the library as a volunteer. He organizes books, creates reading lists and guides children. Over five years, the library has collected more than 20,000 books, from children’s picture books to classics.Gradually, Zhou has seen the library grow into a popular learning place. In the beginning, bad habits such as littering were common. But he said that the library was meant to teach not only knowledge, but also good habits.He plans to open two or three more libraries in other villages, using the same ideas — the libraries should benefit the local people, and they should always be free.12．Why did Zhou Qinggui almost drop out of school in 1995A．He didn’t like studying at all.B．His family was too poor to support (支持) him.C．He wanted to help his family make money.13．What does Zhou think the library should mainly doA．Only help children finish homework.B．Collect as many picture books as possible.C．Provide a spiritual world for children to build their confidence and enrich their knowledge.14．What can we know about Zhou’s father from the passageA．He is paid much money to manage the library.B．He is old but willing (愿意的) to do volunteer work.C．He doesn’t care about village children’s study.15．What is Zhou’s future planA．Build more free libraries for villagers.B．Close Siyuan Library soon.C．Ask his friends to raise more money for his family.阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。Are you looking for something fun and would you like to help others in your spare time Then join us to be a volunteer! 16 Anyone, from twelve-year-old children to people in their seventies can become a volunteer.17 Schools need help with taking care of children while parents are working.

They don’t open gifts right away, as it’s a way to show politeness. However, Western people usually accept gifts happily and open them at once to say “thank you” and share the joy.Dining habits are different too. Chinese families eat with chopsticks and share dishes together. This shows warmth and togetherness. In Western countries, people use knives and forks. Each person has their own plate of food, and they don’t share much.Festivals are another big difference. The Spring Festival is important in China. Families get together, eat dumplings, and give red envelopes (红包). In the West, Christmas is the most important holiday. People decorate (装饰) Christmas trees, give presents, and have turkey for dinner.These differences make our world rich. We should understand them and respect each other’s ways of life.41．When receiving gifts, what do Chinese people often do at first42．What do Chinese families usually eat with43．Why do Chinese people share dishes when eating together44．How do Western people celebrate Christmas45．List (列举) another difference between Chinese and Western cultures in daily life.
