Pat, his sister kissed him and said,You haven't changed much, Roy. Let me see, now —when did we meet last?Twenty-five years age, he answered. I came here for a week, do you remember? He added,You haven't changed much either. It was polite for Roy to say so,but it wasn't true. Pat seemedalmost an old lady. The next morning Roy walked throughthe village alone. The place looked very different. There were lots of trafficsigns on the roads and beside the roads. There was a new car park, a new postoffice, a new bus stop. He remembered suddenly that the bus used to stopanywhere: you just put up your handand it stopped．One surprise followedanother. The railway station was gone! The school was gone; a lot of farmmachinery stood in the playground!But Roy's biggest surprise was thepeople. He didn't recognize(认出)anybody at all; perhaps because everyone seemed old．He went intothe post office and bought some stamps.Where are all the children and young people? he asked thepostmaster.The old fellow looked up from hisbook of stamps. Children? he said. They're in school, ofcourse. There are three or four young families here. The children go to schoolby bus—to Horham.Horham was a town about twentykilometres away.At lunch Pat said, The villagelooks nice, doesn't it?It's all different, Pat. Itused to be an exciting place, but now it's full of old people. I don'tunderstand…There are a few newcomers, butthe ones we knew are still here. You're not exactly young yourself, Roy, areyou?11.Whydid Roy say that Pat hadn't changed much, either? Because （）.A. Pat was still a young ladyB.they hadn't seen each other for twenty- five yearsC. he didn't know how much Pat hadchangedD.it was a polite way to say so12.

Roy didn't realize(认识到)that he was twenty-five years older than before15. The best title(题目) of the passage is（）.A. ChangesB. A SurpriseC.It's Full of Old PeopleD.A Polite Answer(B)Homesick is acompound (复合) word made up of HOME andSICK. You know what each word means on its own, of course. But think about whatthe words mean when they are used together. Homesick means SICK FOR HOME.Now think for a minute about SEASICK.If you change the word home in the definition(释义) to the word sea, would the definition fit SEASICK?Doesseasick mean SICK FOR SEA? It means something quite different. Seasick meansSICK BY THE MOVEMENT ON THE SEA. When you are homesick, the only place you wantto be at home. When you are seasick, the last place you want to be is at seA.Have you ever heard of a person beingheartsick? Heart-sick doesn't mean that something is wrong with a person'sheart. People are heartsick when they are hurt deep inside and when they feelas if their hearts are broken.But, on the other hand, we have suchcompound words as handshake and handbag. Perhaps you may write definitions forthem and knowing something like this must be helpful in your English study.16.

阅读理解 3In England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited . About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way . Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed (窘迫的 . No one had told them about the British custom (习惯)of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus .Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding (点头) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty .In that country, you shake your head to mean 'yes'— a nod means 'no' . At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up . If you think that you have had enough , you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble . Also, you should try to avoid (避免)touching the head of an adult (成人) ——it's just not done in Thailand .1. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen _________ .A. were foreignersB. didn't have ticketsC. made a loud noiseD. didn't line up for the bus2. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country, you should _________.A. learn the language of the countryB. understand the manners and customs of the countryC. have enough time and moneyD. make friends with the people there3.
