2019年中考英语阅读理解基础题（二）Passage A（2019中考保健与健康类选练）How much sleep do we need? We are all different. Some people need only three hours of sleep a night. Others need ten hours of sleep a night. Most Americans sleep an average ( 平均 ) of seven to eight hours a night. After the age of fifty, the average sleep time goes down to 6.5 hours a day.Most people have a night when they cannot sleep. About one in three(1/3) Americans has a problem with sleep. Many of these people can not fall asleep. The name of this problem is insomnia.This is not a new problem. Many famous people in history had insomnia. Some of these people had special ideas to make them sleep. Benjamin Franklin, a famous statesman ( 政治家 ) and inventor, had four beds. He moved from one to another to fall asleep.King Louis XIV of France had 413 beds and hoped to fall asleep in one of them. Mark Twain, a famous American writer, had a different way.

In fact, it refers to some passengers who behave badly by plane and could endanger flight safety. On December 11, on the airline flight from Bangkok Thailand to Nanjing, two tourists conflicted with an air attendant. The male tourist poured garbage in the aisle(过道) and said something bad to the flight attendant. The female tourist threw a whole cup of hot water over the flight attendant. At last the plane was forced to turn back. On January 10, 2015, a passenger on Flight MU2036 opened an emergency exit without permission because of dissatisfaction with the flight delay. At last the plane was forced to turn back.These things not only affect the normal order of flight but also have a bad international influence.The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can take a plane. But many of them don’t behave well in public. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world’s second worst tour ists after Americans.If you want to change those bad behaviors and become a civilized passenger, remember to avoid the followings：●Don’t spit in public or throw away trashes here and there.●Never cut in line or snatch bus seats.●Don’t laugh or spea k loudly.●Don’t take off shoes or smoke in public.●Say something polite and do something civilized.Whenever and wherever you are, you need to respect others.

A recent study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps old age away.The study involved fruit flies(g果蝇), as they share many genes(基因) with humans. Researchers gave one group of fruit flies normal food, and another group of fruit flies got the same food including apple.The results showed that flies that ate apple lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that didn’t eat apple. The study also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb and move about as they became old, the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reports.The researchers believe that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂）found in apples are good for health.In another experiment, researchers studied the diets of thousands of women. They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent less likely to have heart disease.Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s gen etic code(基因代码). This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruit that are healthier. Researchers are already using this information to grow apples with added antioxidants. Antioxidants help to keep eyes and joints (关节)healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.Apples that help people lose weight may be in supermarkets in just four or five years. They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating.【小题1】Fruit flies were used in the research because_______________ .A．they love to eat applesB．they share similar genes with humansC．they are easy to catchD．they can live longer【小题2】By studying the diets of many women, researchers ___________ .A．proved apples were good for people’s health.B．found they are healthier than menC．helped them to lose weight successfullyD．discovered the genetic code of the apple【小题3】From the story, we can infer(推测) that _________________.A．women like to eat apples more often than menB．people who eat apples are easier to have heart diseaseC．scientists are studying a new type of applesD．apples’genetic code is similar to other fruits【小题4】You may find the passage in ____________ .A．a science magazine B．a guidebookC．a picture show D．a storybookPassage CNow satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts forthree or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.1. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space2. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather3. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures4. Maybe we’ll soo n be able to forecast the weather for ________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer5. The main（主要的）idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in _________.A. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecasting参考答案Keys: 1-5 ACBDDPassage DGetting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March xx after heavy rain damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce.Luckily, according to the researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb.While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the sun's energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons — the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can power a 50－watt LED light for two hours — enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done. The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October xx. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.( )6.What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1?A. They are difficult to use and create pollution.B. They are expensive to buy and easily damaged.C. They are difficult to repair and produce little light.D. They are expensive to use and can be bad for health.( )7.The underlined word “cables” means “______”in Chinese.A. 电报B．电缆C. 电话D. 网线( )8.What is true about the Plant Lamp?A. It can be made by local people.B. It is much easier to use than oil lamps.C. It can produce all the electricity the villagers need.D. The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find.( )9.The Plant Lamp's inventor believes it could be the most helpful for ______.A. small rainforest communitiesB. carsC. poor people in citiesD. farmers( )10.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To report on a new invention.B. To explain a new scientific theory.C. To describe how electricity is made.D. To discuss the problems of poor villages.6～10 D B D A APassage E阅读下面短文或图表，并选择正确答案。

2019中考英语阅读理解基础编题（2）及答案【实战训练】 A（2019中考日常生活类训练）Though many countries have laws against the illegal ivory trade (反对非法象牙贸易), tens of thousands of African elephants are killed every year.In January, 2014, hundreds of elephant tusks (象牙) as well as ivory sculptures were put into two large crushing machines (粉碎机) in Guangdong, China. In all, more than six tons of ivory were destroyed. People called the event an ivory crush. In November, 2013, the similar event happened in Colorado, America. There, wildlife officials also destroyed more than six tons of ivory.Though it may sound strange, wildlife officials are crushing ivory to help save African elephants. Stephanie Wang, who works for the Wildlife Protection Society in New York City, says, “We try to let the world know that we don’t think ivory is valuable when it’s not on an elephant.” Each year, poachers kill elephants, cut off their long tusks and take the tusks out of Africa secretly. Then they sell the tusks and get thousands of dollars. The buyers use the ivory to make sculptures, jewellery and traditional medicines.The purpose of recent ivory crushes is to send a message to the poachers and those who buy illegal ivory. Stephanie Wang says, “China’s ivory crush is ‘an important step’. However, it is on ly a small amount (数量) of the illegal ivory.If we don’t stop the illegal ivory trade, African elephants could disappear from the wild within 10 years.”1. The writer mentions ______ ivory crush(es) in the passage.A. oneB. twoC. sixD.twelve2. What can we infer from the passage?A. There are too many elephants in China.B. Chinese people can’t afford ivory sculptures.C. American people never buy ivory sculptures.D. Wildlife officials are against the ivory trade.3. What does the underlined word “poachers” mean in Chinese?A. 偷捕动物的人B. 热爱动物的人C. 虐待动物的人D. 训练动物的人4. According to Stephanie Wang, ______.A. it’s not a good idea to crush ivoryB. all of the ivory trade is in ChinaC. we should do a lot to protect African elephantsD. African elephants will disappear within 10 years参考答案1B 2D 3A 4C【实战训练】 BMore Electric Machines for FarmersWhen Spring Festival is getting closer, more and more people in rural (农村) areas also want to buy things for the new year, such as TV sets, fridges, or washing machines. Our government also set a new policy(政策) to encourage farmers to buy these household goods (家用品). If you are a farmer, you will get some money back from the government when you buy these things in the shop. This is because the government gives a 13 percent subsidy (补贴) to the rural consumption (消费) , that is , you can buy things at a 13% lower price if you buy TV sets, mobile phones, washing machines and fridges.Mr Wang bought a mobile phone from the shop. And it cost him about 850 yuan. He could enjoy 110.5 yuan subsidy from the government . That means he only spent 739.5 yuan on the mobile phone. Another farmer, Zhou Lin, bought a fridge from the shop. Its price is 1960 yuan. In no more than fifteen days, he got 255 yuan back from the government. He was very happy, too. He said, “ The government helps me buy these machines. I will buy a new washing machine soon.”Last year, there were three provinces, Shandong, Henan and Sichuan, carried out this policy. It has made great progress. So this year, our government decided to carry out the program all over the country. But at present, you had better choose the ones which are within the program.( )57.Many people want to buy some _______ before the Spring Festival.A . books B. new TV setsC. new housesD. new clothes( )58. If you are a farmer, you will get some _______from the government when you buy things within the program.A. presentsB. praiseC. moneyD. fame( )59. Zhou Lin bought a fridge and finally he paid_________ yuan.A. 1960B.2215C. 1705D.1850( )60. The passage tells us ________.A. poor people can easily buy TV sets, fridges, washing machines, and mobile phonesB. shop owners encourage farmers to buy TV sets, fridges, washing machines, andmobile phonesC. government encourages farmers to buy TV sets, fridges, washing machines, andmobile phonesD. farmers buy TV set , fridge ,washing machines and mobile phones with half ofthe price参考答案57-60 BCCC【实战训练】 CEverybody knows that safety comes first. But a survey shows that every year, about 18,500 children under age 14 die in traffic accidents in China. The death rate （率）in China is 2.5 times higher than that in European(欧洲的) countries. And a report said that few cars with child safety seats are sold in China. Safety problem worries the Chinese people.Luckily, Chinese government（政府） has decided to change. The 12th Five-Year Plan on Road Traffic Safety (2011-2015) says that the country will improve its school bus safety management system（管理系统）over the next four years. All school buses must be equipped (装备)with GPS systems by 2015, and every seat in the buses must beequipped with seat belts（安全带）by 2013.Over the next four years, there will be more policies(政策) to develop school buses. The school bus will be much safer. The parents don’t have to pick up their children in their own cars every day.As we all know, China is developing fast. But it is terrible to read about the accidents in China because people are so careless when they cross the road, and drivers often drive too fast because they want to make more money. In fact, a man without a kind heart can not be a school bus driver even though he can drive very well. A school bus driver must be a person who has many responsibilities, such as caring for the children and making sure that they are comfortable, safe, and happy.( )61. In China more children______ died in traffic accidents than in European countries.A. over 14B. under 14C. over 13D. under 13( )62 The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “responsibilities” in this passage is ______.A. 信息B. 条件C. 任务D. 责任( )63. According to the passage, a good school bus driver should ______.A. be smart enoughB. care for the childrenC. be young enoughD. make more money( )64. There are many traffic accidents in China because ____ .A. people are so careless when they cross the roadB. drivers often drive too fast because they want to make more moneyC. people are kind-hearted.D. Both A and B.( )65.Which of the followings is TRUE according to the passage?A. A lot of cars in China have child safety seats now.B. All school buses must be equipped with GPS systems by 2013.C. The country will have more policies to develop school buses.D. A person who can drive is able to be a school bus driver.参考答案61-65 BDBDC【实战训练】 D阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的三个或四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

2019年中考英语阅读理解习题（二）Passage A（2019中考选练）A serious earthquake can be a terrible experience, and it is easy to forget safety measures(措施) in disorder(混乱). Fortunately, most earthquake safety measures are common sense, but if you forget everything else, remember the following instructions: drop, cover, and hold on. Also, most of earthquake deaths happen after the earthquake, so remember that the danger does not end when the shaking does!If you stay indoors during an earthquake, move away from unsupported areas and windows. Try to get under a doorway or another area of the building which is held up by strong beams(梁). Stay under a table or desk only if it is very strong. Do not rush to lifts, because it is far safer to stay where you are. Cover your head with your arms around it and curl(蜷缩) into a ball, and wait for the shaking to stop.If you stay outdoors during an earthquake, move to an area which is as open as possible. Don’t move to buildings, electric poles and other objects which may fall during an earthquake and injure you. Protect your head and stay low to the ground till the shaking ends and it is safe to move.After an earthquake, many buildings are less strong, although they appear safe. If you stay indoors, move people from the building quickly and help disabled or injured people. Once outdoors, move well away from the building so that if it falls down, you will not be injured. Wait till public safety officials announce that it is safe to stay indoors.By planning ahead and keeping calm during an earthquake, you can greatly increase your chances of survival(生存) without injury.( ) 1.The underlined word “Fortunately” in the first paragr aph means______ .A.especiallyB. graduallyC. luckilyD. finally( ) 2.We can learn from the passage that earthquake safety measures________ .A. are planned for childrenB. help us to keep safeC. are not necessaryD. are not easy to understand( ) 3.According to the passage, it isn’t a good choice _________during an earthquake.A. to take a liftB. to stay under a strong tableC. to get under a doorwayD. to cover the head with arms around it( ) 4.If you stay outdoors during an earthquake, you can do all the following except________ .A.trying to protect your headB.moving to an open placeC.moving away from buildingsD.taking the disabled people into the room( ) 5.The purpose of the passage is mainly to tell us how to________ .A.stay away from an earthquakeB.predict an earthquakeC.control an earthquakeD.keep safe during and after an earthquake参考答案1C 2B 3A 4D 5DPassage B阅读理解。
【人教新目标】2019年中考英语二轮复习专项练习：阅读理解(二)附答案
2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题（二）附答案【能力选练】 A（2019中考选练）If you want to become a fluent(流利的)English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meanings of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it_As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.1. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?A. Reading and writing.B. Reading and listening.C. Writing andspeaking. D. Speaking and listening.2. The underlined phrase "come across" in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by "_______".A. meet byaccident B. discoverC. find on purposeD. look for3. The author seems to agree with the view that_______.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing4. The passage is mainly about how to_______.A. choose suitable listening materialsB. deal with new words in readingC. read as many English books as possibleD. become fluent in speaking and writing English参考答案BACD【能力选练】 B中考英语阅读理解****浪费可耻Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources,what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.◆根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

The stairs are likely part of the building to be broken. Even if the stairs are not destroyed by the earthquake，they may fall down later when people run down.Try to get into an open area away from trees，buildings，walls，advertisement boards and power lines if you are outdoors.If you are driving when an earthquake suddenly happens，just stay in your car until the shaking ends.

By the middle 1950s, he had become one of the best-loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954, life magazine published(刊登) a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his books.In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 230 words to write the book and even a six-year-old should be able to read it. It was a fun story and easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of The Cat in the Hat made him want to write more books for children. In 1960, he wrote a book using less than fifty words. The book is called Green Eggs and Ham.In 1984, Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖). He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents. He died at the age of 87, but his influence remains. Millions of his books have been sold worldwide. People say his books helped change the way American children learned to read. Yet, his books are loved by people of all ages. Doctor Seuss once said, "I do not write for children. I write for people.( )11. Doctor Seuss learned from the magazine that _______.A. some school children could not readB. many children's books were interestingC. children wanted to learn to readD. a writer for children was wanted ( )12.

He wrote the book The Cat in the Hat at the age of _____.A. 50B. 53C. 56D. 87( )14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Doctor Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham with over 230 words.B. Doctor Seuss wrote books only for children in the United States.C. The Cat in the Hat was written only for six-year-old children.D. His books provided education and enjoyment for Americans.( )15. From the text we know that Doctor Seuss __________.A. won a Pulitzer Prize soon after his deathB. sold millions of his books himself worldwideC. changed American children's way of readingD. wrote the largest number of books in the world阅读理解11—15 ACBDCPassage D飓风Anyone who has experienced a cyclone(飓风) will tell you how scary it can be. High winds and lots of rain can destroy a city in less than an hour. A big cyclone, named cyclone Debbie, hit Australia's east coast at the end of March.The wind was as fast as 236 km/h and destroyed houses, trees, cars and boats. Sea levels rose and flooded coastal towns. While rivers also flooded. Many cities near rivers went underwater.Hundreds of thousands of people had to leave their homes and farms, at least 8 people died, reported Courier Mail. The cyclone lasted for about 3 days. But the flooding was still happening 2 weeks later. Some cities never recover from a cyclone, while it takes years to rebuild.A tropical cyclone begins when a group of thunderstorms meet over warm, tropical waters. Lots of air and water is sucked into clouds from the ocean. Because the earth is rotating, the clouds start to spiral(螺旋式上升). That is why tropical cyclone has curved(使成弧形) shape when you see it on a map. For this reason, tropical cyclone can not form near Equator(赤道) because earth's rotation is not strong enough there. When the wind speed increases to 120 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane, typhoon or cyclone.So what is the difference between a cyclone, a hurricane, a typhoon？The answer is actually quite simple.All three are the same. We just use different names for these storms in different places. In the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific Ocean around the US, the term hurricane is used. The same type of storm in the North Pacific Ocean near China is called typhoon. Cyclones occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean near Australia.1. When the wind speed increases to ________， it changes from a tropical cyclone toa hurricane.A. 2 km/mB. 3 km/mC. 4 km/sD. 5 km/s2. The underlined word “recover” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in Chinese.A. 恢复B. 康复C. 痊愈D. 建造3. Australian hurricanes caused ________.A. many people lost their homeB. trees, cars and boats were destroyedC. sea levels roseD. including A，B and C4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. When the wind speed increases to 125 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane.B. A group of thunderstorms meet over cold, tropical waters.C. The earth can rotate.D. Tropical cyclones can be seen near Equator.5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. A terrible hurricane—Debbie.B. The earth's rotation.C. The formation of cyclone.D. A terrible hurricane and how a hurricane forms. 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。

2019年中考英语阅读理解习题Passage A（2019中考教育类选练）Do you consider failure as an ending? Do you often feel after a failure that you are good for nothing? Then be careful, you are one of them who have bad relationship with failure. And this is the only reason why people often keep themselves away from their success. The power of failure is that it helps us to learn fro our mistakes and missteps and we must consider a failure as an opportunity to grow rather than giving up. Let's discover the reasons why successful people believe that opportunity lies in every failure.Disappointment or failure shows that you are tryingThe best way to gauge（衡量）your progress at something is to see how many times you failed. In case you haven't failed yet, chances are that you haven't tried hard yet. Look at all successful men and women throughout our history, they all had one thing in common. That's to say they failed not once but several times before they achieved success. Let's take an example of Thomas Edison: he failed a lot of times to find right filament（灯丝）for his light bulb. Henry Ford had a stronger relationship with failure, which inspired him to quo te this unforgettable saying “failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.”Achievement lies in looking at failure as an opportunityJust like every successful person had one thing in common, similarly all unsuccessful persons throughout our history had one thing in common --- their inability to use failure as an opportunity and a tool. If you feel your one failure is your ultimate （终极的）failure, and that feeling of sinking down is known as an ultimate failure, you are pushing yourself away from your expected success. Achievement is all about finding out what mistakes you made, what is the main cause of that failure, and how you are going to make up for it.Success requires willpower, passion, hard work, intelligence, determination, but all of the above, success requires failure. Use your failure as an opportunity to learn,to become wiser and to reconsider your relationship with failure, the true key to success.1. According to the writer, why do people keep themselves away from their success?A. Because they don't set long-term goals.B. Because they haven't got enough time.C. Because they can't deal with failure properly.D. Because they are disappointed in themselves.2. Why does the writer take the example of Thomas Edison?A. To explain the reasons for failure.B. To prove the importance of failure.C. To take pride in Thomas Edison.D. To introduce the process of making a light bulb.3. What can you learn from the passage?A. Failure can build up your confidence.B. Successful people seldom failed.C. Failure is more important than success.D. Successful people use failure as a tool.参考答案1. C 2. B 3. DPassage B-“老”字趣谈每个国家都有各自的文化习惯，而这种文化上的差异往往会引起一定的误会，不过只要熟悉对方的风俗习惯做到入乡随俗，一切就OK啦！When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”.I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises orjogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something th ey didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。
