Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing（令人迷惑的）. A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”.

On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren’t paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks?” The woman there didn’t say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her. She had raised her eyebrows（眉毛）, which in Micronesia means “yes”.

Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was famous for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today?” He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means “no”.

Tom had a similar problem when arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing.

He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from. You have to know where a person is from to understand whether they mean “yes” or “no”.

36．The Americans teaching English in other countries found that they ________.

A．should go abroad for vacations

B．needed to learn foreign languages

C．had problems with communications

D．should often discuss their experiences

37．People in Micronesia show “yes” by ________.

C．In Bulgaria, nodding heads means “no”.

D．In India, only shaking heads means “yes”.

Mooncakes remain one of the     58     traditional ways to celebrate the festival. Eating mooncakes while watching the full moon is a central part of the Mid-Autumn Festival throughout China, and is a symbol of family unity（团结）. At the very beginning, mooncakes were served     59     a sacrifice to the Moon (祭月). The word “mooncake” first appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty, even though the mooncakes were not round at that time. Nowadays, mooncakes      60      as presents to our loved ones and they represent people’s wishes to be together during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

八、阅读还原6选5

You’ve been learning words since you were a tiny baby. At first, you learned them only by hearing other people talk. Now that you’re a reader, you have another way to learn words. What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don’t know what it means?      61    

Say it

First sound it out. Then say it to yourself.      62      Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print. So if you match up what you know and what you read - you have the word!

     63    

If this doesn’t work, take the next step: look at the context — the other words and sentences around it. Read this sentence: When it rained, the dog looked for shelter in the doorway. If the word shelter doesn’t look familiar. look at the words around it. Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information.

Use word parts

     64      Does it have any parts you know? These can help you understand what it means. If you don’t know the meaning of miner, try looking at parts of the word. You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things. A lot of times, -er at the end of a word means “a person who does something”. So a miner might be someone who works in a mine.

Look it up

If the three steps above don’t work, you can look it up.      65     — either a book or online.

Nobody knows the meaning of every word, but good readers know how to understand words they don’t know.

A．Use context

B．Look at the sentences

C．It might sound like a word you know

D．You can find the word in a dictionary

E．Following some easy steps can help you

F．If the context doesn’t help, look at the parts of the word

九、阅读填表

Sometimes you have to begin a different life in a new school. Maybe it is not easy to start a new school life, but there is some advice that may help you.

Always be yourself

In a new school you may want to make new friends by changing yourself. This is not a good idea. Changing who you are for other people will only make you feel even worse. Be yourself, and soon you will find friends who you like.

Accept invitations

In a new school you may want to keep in touch with your old friends after school. But that never means you should stay away from your new friends. If some new friends invite you to a party, please accept them happily. This can make you learn about them well.

Talk to your teacher

Remember your new teachers are always there to help you. If you have any trouble, it’s best to have a talk with them. He or she will be glad to listen to you.

Don’t worry too much about moving to a new school. Just be yourself, be cheerful and be friendly. Very soon you’ll have lots of friends and you’ll have fun again.

76．例文

Did you save water today?

I saw the picture exhibition of saving water yesterday. I was greatly shocked by the pictures, especially the one that shows a six-year-old child is helping carry water home. Because of the worst drought, every drop of water seems so important to a family.

I think it’s a great shame to waste water while millions of people are in great need of water. I used to leave the water running when I was brushing teeth. Now I find it wrong to do so and I’ll remember to turn off the tap when I am doing the washing. Besides, we can save the used water for later use. It is also a good idea to encourage our friends and family members to join us!

Water is important in our life and everyone has the duty to save it. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a big difference.
