Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 Long time ago, the ancient people could not travel to any faraway places for they had no instruments to carry them across the wide oceans, the deep valleys, long rivers or the high mo
10、untains.Nowadays men take advantage of steamships, trains, airplanes for modern bridges. Airplanes can carry us to the far countries in a short time; steamships can travel across the wide oceans. It is convenient to the modern people.Travelling is a good idea to us because we can get more knowledge
11、about, such as the custom, the geography of other countries. And the people could travel among the different countries in the world. For it is easy to travel from the land by trains, or from the sea by ships.We learnt that the Italian who made the world larger was Mr. Christopher Columbus. He was a
12、brave man. Up to the middle of the 15th century, the people were afraid of travelling because they believed it was a dangerous thing.There is a saying in China, that is“ Travelling for thousands of li is better than reading for ten years. “It is to say that we can learn more in different places than
13、 we can learn from books.21 The people in ancient times couldnt travel too far away places because _.（A）they found it no use doing so（B） they liked staying at home（C） there was no modern transportation（D）they were forbidden to go to other countries 22 The reason why people like to fly today is that
14、_.（A）it is interesting（B） it is cheaper than to go in any other way（C） it can cross the wide oceans（D）it takes less time 23 The modern people like travelling now because _.（A）it can bring us more knowledge（B） it can make us rich（C） they have too much money（D）it is a good idea 24 We say Columbus made
15、 the world larger, that is to say _.（A）he founded America（B） he invaded America（C） he was a brave man（D）he discovered the continent of America 25 The Chinese saying means“_“（A）The farther a man goes, the more treasures he gets（B） The more a man sees, the more knowledge he gets（C） Travelling is more
16、interesting than reading（D）The farther a man goes, the more books he reads 25 The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English“ You speak very good English. “But the student answered,“ No, no. My English is very poor. “the foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he
17、 had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said,“ Yes indeed, you speak English very well. “But the Chinese student still kept saying “No. “In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. Whats wrong with the students answer? It is because he did no
18、t accept a compliment赞美的话as the English people do. He should have said“ Thank you“ instead of “no“. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said “Thank you“, that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the d
19、ishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say “Thank you“. If someone says to a woman “You look so beautiful with the new clothes on“, she should be very happy and answer “Thank you“. In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are
20、 modest and say“ No, Im afraid I cant do it well“, then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say “no“, you will certainly be looked down upon by others. If asking for a job, one says something like “Let me have a try on the job“ instead of “Yes, I can certai
21、nly do it,“ he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.26 Why was the American surprised at the Chinese students answer?（A）
22、Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.（B） Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.（C） Because he wouldn like others to say “No“.（D）Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the western countries. 27 As the student kept
23、 saying “no“ ,the American mod.（A）became disappointed（B） got angry（C） lost interest（D）could not continue the conversation because he did not know what else he could say 28 According to the western culture, if one is given a compliment, he of she should say:（A）Pardon（B） Thank you（C） Excuse me（D）Yes,
24、thanks a lot 29 Why does a man in the west who asks for a job say something like “Yes, I can certainly do it“?（A）Because to get the job he should give an impression that hes just fit for the job.（B） Because he is not modest.（C） Because he could do nothing but speak that way.（D）Because he was eager t
25、o get the job. 30 What does the passage tell us?（A）Confidence is more important than modesty.（B） How to accept compliments given by westerners.（C） The Chinese people are modest while westerners are confident.（D）About the western culture. 30 Nine-year-old Louis Pasteur rushed into the little house, h

28、e lost the use of his left arm and leg. Yet he worked on and on, as hard asever, as he was eager to find a way for curing rabies.

29、 at his lab. A few days after Pasteurs treatment the boy got better. He did not catch rabies.The discovery gave new hope to people in many countries.
