Everybody knows Thai people are so friendly,but their culture demands that you never point your feet at anyone of any statue,especially that of the Buddha.In addition,they also consider the head to be more important than other parts of the
body.This is why it is disrespectful to touch another person’s head in Thailand.Statues are not left out.If you see the Buddha statue,avoid touching its head as well.
Russians are very hospitable(好客的) people.In their culture food is serious business.Lunch is the most important and heaviest meal.If you get invited by your Russian friend for a meal,don’t ever refuse it—they find it impolite.You might want to skip your own meals to leave space in your stomach for the food you will eat in Russian gatherings.This is a very interesting cultural difference between Russian people and other nations.

Differences do set us apart,but we often forget that we are all humans,and our culture is much more representative(有代表性的) of our differing environment than truly different people.Here are some tips on how to understand and admire cultural differences.
1 In almost every single case,the only thing required to bridge cultural differences is an introduction.This isn’t always easy,but the best thing to do is make an effort—go to the international folk music festival,eat in a restaurant where English isn’t the first langua ge,and say hello to the new family down the street.
Invite other cultures into your home. 2 Some people open their homes to exchange students with apps like Air BnB,while others might work through a church or charity to help traveling groups.Even easier,you can simply invite people from other cultures over for dinner. 3
Read as much about the local culture as you can before arriving.It is irresponsible to arrive in a new place without knowing how things usually run.You may get immediately shocked upon
landing,which can make it harder to accept the culture later on.
4 Read online,check some books,and generally arrive
well-informed.Having some knowledge beforehand will help with any culture shock.
Share parts of your own culture and life to encourage others to share theirs.One of the best things to bring while traveling is a set of photos from home,allowing you to bring people into your own life and culture from anywhere. 5 And learning is the key to understanding and,finally,acceptance.
A.You can accept travelers or exchange students.
B.Therefore,be ready for some shocks or changes in the real world.
C.Seek out e foreign to you.
D.Get out to see new places,pushing your comfort zone as much as possible.
E.Giving a little bit of yourself is the best way to learn a little bit about others.
F.You’ll be surprised how much most people want to meet and talk to foreigners.
G.The best way to understand and admire cultural differences is over food and friendship.

Ⅶ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

文章主要讲述了一个“缺少音乐细胞”的男孩为了满足身患绝症的妈妈的愿望而刻苦练习钢琴,最终演出成功的感人故事。

1.C “我”更喜欢学生在较早的年龄开始学习钢琴。

level“水
平”;convenience“便利”;age“年龄”;moment“时刻”。

根据后文“IexplainedittoRobinthathewastooold”可知,作者喜欢学生在较早的年龄开始学习钢琴。

2.C “我”向Robin解释说他年龄太大了,但他说听他弹钢琴一直是他母亲的梦想。

task“任务”;plan“计划”;dream“梦想”;hobby“爱好”。

结合句意,根据后文Robin所说的
“Mymum’sgoingtohearmeplaysomeday.”以及“Itwasthefirsttimeshecouldhearmeplayonthestage.”可知,听他弹钢琴是他母亲的梦想。

3.D 虽然Robin很努力,但他似乎没有基本的音乐意识。

unless“除非”;because“因为”;until“直到”;although“虽然”。

前半部分“Robintriedveryhard”和后半部分
“hedidn’tseemtohavethebasicsenseofmusic”之间存在转折关系。

4.B 然而,他还是继续学着钢琴,而且在每节课结束时他从来没有忘记说:“我妈妈总有一天会听到我演奏的。

”act“表现”;continue“继续”;command“需要”;prove“证明”。

根据前文可知,Robin没有基本的音乐意识,根据“However”的转折语义可知,他仍在继续坚持学习。

5.B 但这似乎是不可能的,“我”对他的缓慢进展感到失望。

encouraged“受鼓励的”;disappointed“失望的”;touched“受感触的”;guided“被指导的”。

根据前文“Butitseemedimpossible”以及后文“hisslowprogress”可知,作者很失望。

6.A 有一天,他告诉“我”,他妈妈病了,他不能再来上“我”的课了。

tell“告诉”;show“出示”;convince“使确信”;promise“承诺”。

根据后文“hismotherwassickandhecouldn’tcometomyclassanylonger”可知,Robin是陈述一般事实,所以指“告诉老师”。

7.B 几个月后,当“我”正在为“我”的学生准备一个音乐节目
时,Robin来到“我”家,说他要报名参加这个节目。

lookforwardto“盼望”;signupfor“报名”;focuson“专注”;learnfrom“向……学习”。

根据前文“Iwaspreparingmystudentsforamusicshow”可知,作者为学生准备音乐节目,所以Robin前来报名参加。

后文“MymumhadcancerandjustpassedawaythedayIwenttoyour
toaskforyourpermissionto takepartintheshow.”可知,他要报名参加这个节目。

8.C “我”不知道是什么让“我”允许他这么做的。

warn“警
告”;persuade“说服”;allow“允许”;force“强迫”。

根据后文“Maybeitwasthe inhiseyesormaybeitwassomethinginsideofmesayingthatitwouldbeallr ight.”可知,作者答应了Robin的要求,所以指“允许”他报名。

9.A determination“决心”;happiness“幸福”;reflections“反思”;anger“愤怒”。

虽然作者并不看好Robin,可是却允许他报名了。

其中原因之一,应该是Robin坚决的态度。

10.D 当Robin宣布他选择了莫扎特最困难的曲子之一时,“我”更惊讶了。

excited“激动的”;satisfied“满意的”;relieved“放心
的”;surprised“吃惊的”。

根据后文“hehadchosenoneofthemostdifficultpiecesofMozart”可知,作者没有想到他竟然选择了最难的曲子,所以感到惊讶。

11.A 然而,在节目中,他的手指在琴键上优雅地舞动着。

gracefully“优雅地”;awkwardly“笨拙地”;slowly“缓慢地”;quickly“迅速地”。

根据后文“Heplayedsowell”可知,Robin弹得很好,所以这里描述他的手指“优雅地”在琴键上舞动。

12.B 他演奏得非常好,当他离开舞台时,每个人都激动地鼓掌。

shake“摇动”;clap“鼓掌”;dance“跳舞”;laugh“大笑”。

根据前文“Heplayedsowell”可知,Robin弹得很好,根据后文“whenhewasleavingthestage”可知,此处指大家鼓掌喝彩。

13.D “我”激动地跑上舞台向他祝贺。

follow“跟随”;drive“驾驶”;wake“醒来”;run“跑”。

根据前文“Heplayedsowellthateveryone excitedlywhenhewasleavingthestage.”可知,Robin弹得很好,所以作者激动地跑上舞台向他祝贺。

14.A house“房子,家”;office“办公室”;class“班级”;stage“舞台”。

根据前文“Robincametomyhomeand saidhehadto theshow.”可知,Robin去作者家里请求参加演出。

15.A special“专门的,特殊的”;important“重要的”;similar“类似的”;popular“流行的”。

根据前文Robin所说“Itwasthefirsttimeshecouldhearmeplayonthestage.”可知,因为是去世的妈妈第一次听Robin在舞台上演奏,所以Robin想让演奏与众不同。
