Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of the counties of Devon and Cornwall. The warm Gulf Stream flows across the North Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico and makes the coastal regions of the southwest quite warm. Palm trees, bamboo (竹) and many semi-tropical (亚热带的) plants grow well in the southwest of England．Flowers and vegetables ripen(成熟) as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the area obtain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. (77) In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England's most popular holiday areas.

Perhaps the most startling theory to come out of kinesics, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Birdwhistell.He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed.In other words, we learn our books, but we are not born with them.A baby has generally unformed facial features.A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around family and friends.This helps explain why the people of some regions of the United States look so much alike.New Englanders or Southerners have certain common facial characteristics that cannot be explained by genetics.The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth;it is learned after.In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after permanent teeth are set.For many, this can be well in adolescence.A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike.We learn our looks from those around us.This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas.In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where the people smile more frequently.In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York state still less.Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia.People in densely populated urban areas also tend to smile and greet each other in public less than do people in rural areas and small towns.()
A.Ray Birdwhistell can tell what region of the United States a person is form. by how much he or she smiles
B.Ray Birdwhistell is a leader in the field of kinesics
C.Ray Birdwhistell says that our physical appearance is influenced by the appearance of people around us
D.People who live in the country are more friendly than people who live in densely populated areas
When an Englishman passes a friend in the street he does not always stop to talk. He may just nod, say “hello” and pass on. If two friends do stop to talk, they do not shake hands. It is only at parties for young people(students, for instance)that a person could go up to someone he does not know and introduce himself. On more formal occasions or at parties run by older people a guest always waits to be introduced to someone he does not know by the host, hostess or another guest who he already knows. At even a formal dinner an Englishman does not wait for a toast before he has a drink. The English reserve toasts for very formal or very special occasions. In these cases the toast will usually be accompanied by a short speech, for example, at a wedding reception or at a party for somebody who is retiring. After a private dinner in someone’s house an Englishman will only shake hands with the host and hostess if it is a fairly formal occasion, like a business dinner, and he will usually put his coat on and say goodbye as he leaves the house.
Luckily, like Chinese people, the English usually excuse foreign students over matters of etiquette. But even so, perhaps the safest advice for the overseas student, no matter what country he is visiting, is to follow the old proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.
1.What will a person do when he attends a party run by older people？ （）A、Go up to a stranger and introduce himself.
B、Ask his friend to introduce him to others.
C、Give a speech in front of others to introduce himself.
D、Wait to be introduced by the hoss/hostess.
2.Which of the following best explains the proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do. （）
A、If you go to Rome, you must do things like the Romans.
B、When you go to a foreign country, you should learn something about their manners.
C、Romans always do the right thing, so you should follow them.
D、Manners in Roman are as easy to follow as in other countries.
A good example is the football Word Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentinaon the map.
Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.
So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport？ Certainly not! Do the Argentinian really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others？ Not really, But it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.
1. What is the author’s main purpose in the passage？（）
A. To explain the role of sport
B. To prove that football is the best sport in the world
C. To show that Argentina is better than all others
D. To prove that football is the world’s most important sport
2. In the second paragraph, the word “summit” means “（） ”.
A. award
B. summary
C. highest point
D. mountain top
3. According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its （）.
A. obvious position on the map
B. successes in the football World Cup
C. excellence at most important sports
D. large number of sports fans and supporters
4. According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will （）.
A. fail to succeed
B. lose enjoyment
C. be successful
D. be unreasonable
5. What is the author’s attitude towards international games？（）
A. Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield
B. Nations that win the football World Cup are regarded as best in all aspects.
C. Nations that win in international games prove the best on the sports field at least.
D. Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
Passage One
They may be one of Britain’s most successful exports and among the world’s most popular TV shows，ranking alongside the World Cup Final and the Olympics Games opening ceremony in terms of audience. But，in Britain，beauty competitions are unfashionable. To most people，beauty contests seems as out-dated as bowing. Nicolas Baker，a lawyer in London，said that“As much as I think it’s fine for women to do it，I don’t think it’s interesting and in fact，I think they’re irrelevant to today.”Last year，Miss World was broadcast to 142 countries，but it wasn’t even shown in the country where it started in 1951.
It wasn’t always this way in Britain. Once beauty queens dated footballers，traveled the world and were guaranteed fame，fortune and fun. Now，they open new supermarkets，are sponsored by dry-cleaning companies and if they’re lucky，they get free clothes from supermarkets.
When Francesca Marchant was crowned Miss Sussex in 1969，it was something to be extremely proud of“I came from a small town，and all my friends were green with envy when they found out I’d won. My boyfriend at the time thought it was terrific and boasted to everyone that he was going out with a beauty queen.
But the good times couldn’t last. The feminist movement gathered momentum. Some women were determined to bring an end to these“cattle shows.” Nowadays，saying that you were a beauty queen just doesn’t sound good.
Miss World organizers claim that contestants are judged on qualities other than just their physical appearance. But Jacqueline Gold，England’s representative at this year’s contest，was not chosen because of her academic record. The Miss World Website states that she“left school having gained many computer qualifications，and certificates in First Aid and Lift Saving.”meaning，not much of an education.
The only time contests attract attention now is because of the protesters. At the 1999 Miss World in Britain around 60 demonstrators hurled flour bombs and fought with the police. They denounced the beauty contest as a“sexist cattle market”. They waved banners saying“fat girls are cool”and“women’s bodies are not for sale.”
31. Beauty contests in Britain are now .
A. bringing huge benefits for the country
B. as popular as the World Cup Final
C. no longer popular in the country
D. widely protested in the country
The lady sitting on Mr. Brown's left, who was about sixty years old, seemed to be the happiest and the most interesting of the American group, and after the first act of the play, she apologized to him for the noisiness of her friends. He answered that he was very glad to see American ladies so really enjoying their visit to England, and so they had a friendly talk. Mr. Brown's neighbour explained what they doing there.
"You know, I have known these ladies all my life," she said. "We all grew up together back in our hometown in the United States. They have all lost their husbands~ and call themselves the Merry Widows. It is a sort of club, you know. They go to a foreign country every summer or two and have a lot of fun. They always go everywhere together. I have wanted to join their club for a long time, but I was not able to become a member until the spring of this year."
The group of American ladies enjoyed the play in a theatre in______.
A．Britain
B．America
C．their club
