18．（10分）Hold Fist Salute vs Fist and Palm Salute
Nowadays，people usually shake hands when they meet each other.Do the Chinese always greet others like this？In fact，handshaking was introduced to our country around 100 years ago.
There were several kinds of greeting in ancient China.Among them the fist and palm salute （拱手礼）was a quite common one，with a history of about 3，000 years.It was first used by people in the Western Zhou Dynasty.In ancient times，if people met a stranger，their hands were always ready for holding something used for fighting.Holding out both hands showed that people could feel relaxed.
When people meet，men usually use their left hand to hold the right one.It's believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history.While for women，the important side is the right.So when they give the fist and palm salute，they should put their right hand on the top.When someone presents the fist and palm salute to you，you are supposed to do it back as well.
In many wuxia or kung fu TV series and movies，people greet each other with the hold fist salute，or Baoquan in Chinese.The gesture（手势） is that the right hand is made a fist，while the left hand is to cover the right fist.It's similar to the fist and palm salute，but they are different.Baoquan is widely used among kungfu masters and students.So，don't make a mistake.
Summary

The gesture between men and women is（3） .Men use the hand that is（4） to hold the other one while women put their right hand on the top.

19．（12分）A kind of beer made from ancient yeast（酵母） up to 5，000 years old has been shown to the public by Israeli researchers.These researchers got six types of years from old pottery（陶器）discovered in the Holy Land.
The beer is believed to be similar to the drinks enjoyed by the Pharaohs（法老）of ancient Egypt.
"I remember that when we first brought out the beer we sat around the table and drank…and I said either we'll be good or we'll all be dead in five minutes，"said Aren Maeir，an archaeologist from Bar﹣Ilan University. "We lived to tell the story."
In the past，beer was a basic thing — like bread — enjoyed by all the people in Israel.Since there was always a risk of water pollution，fermented（发酵的） beer and wine were considered much safer to drink.
Ronen Hazan and Michael Klutstein，two biologists at Hebrew University，came up with the idea of creating beer using old yeast.With the help of beer expert Itai Gutman，the team used modern techniques to create a drink similar to wheat beer（小麦啤酒）.
"The greatest wonder here is that the yeast has lived for thousands of years — just waiting to be dug and grown，" Dr.Hazan told reporters. "By the way，the beer isn't that bad. "
The team says they hope to make more beer using ancient techniques instead in the future.
（1）What is the new kind of beer made from？
（2）Where did researchers discover old pottery with yeast？
（3）What does the underlined sentence tell us？
（4）What did people in Israel usually have in the past？
（5）What would the researchers like to do in the future？

18．（10分）Hold Fist Salute vs Fist and Palm Salute
Nowadays，people usually shake hands when they meet each other.Do the Chinese always greet others like this？In fact，handshaking was introduced to our country around 100 years ago.
There were several kinds of greeting in ancient China.Among them the fist and palm salute （拱手礼）was a quite common one，with a history of about 3，000 years.It was first used by people in the Western Zhou Dynasty.In ancient times，if people met a stranger，their hands were always ready for holding something used for fighting.Holding out both hands showed that people could feel relaxed.
When people meet，men usually use their left hand to hold the right one.It's believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history.While for women，the important side is the right.So when they give the fist and palm salute，they should put their right hand on the top.When someone presents the fist and palm salute to you，you are supposed to do it back as well.
In many wuxia or kung fu TV series and movies，people greet each other with the hold fist salute，or Baoquan in Chinese.The gesture（手势） is that the right hand is made a fist，while the left hand is to cover the right fist.It's similar to the fist and palm salute，but they are different.Baoquan is widely used among kungfu masters and students.So，don't make a mistake.

When people meet，men usually use their left hand to hold the right one.It's believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history.While for women，the important side is the right.So when they give the fist and palm salute，they should put their right hand on the top.When someone presents the fist and palm salute to you，you are supposed to do it back as well.

The beer is believed to be similar to the drinks enjoyed by the Pharaohs（法老）of ancient Egypt.
"I remember that when we first brought out the beer we sat around the table and drank…and I said either we'll be good or we'll all be dead in five minutes，"said Aren Maeir，an archaeologist from Bar﹣Ilan University. "We lived to tell the story."
In the past，beer was a basic thing — like bread — enjoyed by all the people in Israel.Since there was always a risk of water pollution，fermented（发酵的） beer and wine were considered much safer to drink.
Ronen Hazan and Michael Klutstein，two biologists at Hebrew University，came up with the idea of creating beer using old yeast.With the help of beer expert Itai Gutman，the team used modern techniques to create a drink similar to wheat beer（小麦啤酒）.
"The greatest wonder here is that the yeast has lived for thousands of years — just waiting to be dug and grown，" Dr.Hazan told reporters. "By the way，the beer isn't that bad. "
The team says they hope to make more beer using ancient techniques instead in the future.
