A monk lived with his brother, a one-eyed idiot(傻瓜). One day, when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(神学家) who had come from far away to meet him, he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theologian arrived. He told his brother: “Receive this scholar and treat him well! Don’t say a word to him ，and everything will be OK.”
The monk left the temple. Upon returning, he went to meet his guest. “Did my brother receive you properly?” asked the monk.

“You brother is outstanding. He’s a great theologian!” exclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm.
“What do you mean? My brother —a theologian?” stuttered(结巴地说) the surprised monk.
“We had a passionate conversation,” replied the scholar. “We communicated professionally by means of gestures. I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three fingers I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: Buddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”
A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother.
“So how did it go earlier with the theologian?” he asked.
“Very simple,” said the brother. “He made fun of me; he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he con tinued, ‘Be that as it may, between us, we have three eyes.’ That was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Showing him a closed fist, I threatened to lay him out right then and there if he didn’t stop his insulting challenges.”

It’s inevitable for us to meet and contact with strangers. Also talking to strangers matters but how does it work? There are unwritten rules we tend to follow. The rules are very different depending on what country we’re in and what culture we’re in.
In most parts of the US, the baseline expectation in public is that we maintain a balance between politeness and privacy. This is known as civil inattention(礼貌性疏忽). So, imagine two people are walking towards each other on the street. They’ll glance or wave at each other from a distance. That’s the civility. And then as they get closer, they’ll look away, to give each other some space.
In other cultures, people go to extraordinary lengths not to interact at all. People from Denmark are unwilling to talk to strangers, and they would rather miss their stop on the bus than say “excuse me” to someone that they need to get around. They move the backpacks on purpose or use their bodies to say that they need to get past, instead of using two words.
In Egypt, it’s rude to ignore a stranger, and there’s a remarkable culture of hospitality. Strangers might ask each other for a sip of water. Or, if you ask someone for directions, they’re very likely to invite you home for coffee. We see these unwritten rules most clearly when they’re broken, or when you’re in a new place and you’re trying to figure out what the right thing to do is.
When you talk to strangers, you’re making beautiful interruptions into the expected narrative of your daily life and theirs. You’re making un expected connections. If you don’t talk to strangers, you’re missing out on all of that. We spend a lot of time teaching
our children about strangers. What would happen if we spent more time teaching ourselves? We could make a space for change.
28. Which of the following can be regarded as civil inattention in most parts of the US?
A. Avoiding talking to strangers.
B. Glancing at each other anytime.
C. Greeting someone in the distance.
D. Inviting strangers home for coffee.
29. How does a Dane get past on the bus?
A. By saying “excuse me” politely.
B. By tapping others on the shoulders.
C. By forcing his way through people.
D. By making a gesture.
30. Why does the author advise making a space for change?
A. To let us create private space between strangers and us.
B. To let us show hospitality to strangers.
C. To let us make improvement on how to treat strangers.
D. To let us maintain a balance between politeness and privacy.
31. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How to contact with strangers.
B. Different rules of treating strangers.
C. The meaning of civil inattention.
D. Making unexpected connections.
D
The palm - forward (掌心向外) “V” sign, formed by raising and spreading the wrist two fingers, has three different meanings in American culture.
The mo st popular meaning of the “V” sign was invented in 1941 by a Belgian, Victor De Lavalaye. Wanting a symbol for resistance to the Nazi occupation, he came up with the single letter “V”, which stood not only for his own first name, but also for English victo ry, Flemish virijheid, and French victoire. The symbolism of the sign spread very quickly, and Winston Churchill used it constantly in public appearance. Thus throughout the 1940s and 1950s, the gesture meant simply “victory”.
The second meaning came in the 1960s. Because of its military implication, American antiwar protestors used the sign sarcastically(讽刺地) against the arms, so that it became known as the “peace sign”. In the 1970s, the “V” sign, which had lost its military implication, was a common greeting among freedom lovers, acid heads(瘾君子), political radicals, and ultimately, young people in general. So by about the middle of the 1970s, it no longer gave clue to the user’s philosophy.
The third meaning is the oldest and least common. American child ren jokingly put “V”, which resembles “horns”, behind friends-heads in group snapshot. They are unknowingly reproducing something that southern Europeans would find highly offensive. This mischief, called “horns of the Devil”, is a variant of the European “horns” gesture, which is obscene(猥亵的). Here the “V” sign means “Your wife has been cheating on you or, when placed behind another’s head, his wife has been cheating on him.”
In the United States, the gesture is typically given with the palm facing the viewer. The British use both this version and an older, palm-backward version; the latter is obscene in American culture, and corresponds to the American “finger”. Churchill got some surprised stares in 1941 when, evidently unaware of the mean usage, he gave the palm - backward “V” to British troops. In England today you could have to be a social hermit not to understand the distinction. Astonishingly, however, Margaret Thatcher repeated Churchill’s error after her victory in the 1979 election.
32. What’s the most popular meaning of the “V” si gn?
A. Victory.
B. Peace.
C. Cheat.
D. Freedom.
33. Why did Churchill get some surprised stares according to the last paragraph?
A. He was proud of his troops.
B. He had wanted to be a hermit.
C. He was insensible of the mean usage of the “V” sign.
D. He wanted to show congratulations to British troops.
34. What can be learned from the text?
A. The “V” sign simply means victory since 1941.
B. The “V” sign meaning peace was invented by a Belgian.
C. Thatcher made the same error as Churchill after her successful election.
D. American antiwar protestors used the sign to greet among freedom lovers.
35. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. It’s never too old to learn.
B. Think well before you speak.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. Try to know culture diversity fully and regionally.

选项中有两项为多余选项。

To an outsider, any culture can seem confusing. And the UK’s got a thing or two that raises a few eyebrows. However, understand the why and things might be less puzzling.
36. .
In a world where 61％of nations drive on the right, Brits drive on the left. Why? Most people think it goes back to medieval, maybe even Roman times. 37. , when you remember that right-handed people wear a sword on their left hip. Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon arm toward your opponent，who would be on your right. This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.
Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old-fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water, the other cold. 38. . So, why this oddity? It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution. Drinkable cold water came from a mains(供应系统) supply, but hot water came from attic tanks(屋顶水箱) and was not considered suitable for consumption. So they were kept apart.
Millions of people drink tea worldwide, but the odd Brits put milk in theirs. Why? This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century when tea was first imposed. For the majority of Brits, the cups available couldn’t stand the heat of the boiling water and would break, so milk was added first. 39. . And this practical tweak soon became a national habit.
40. . As you can see, these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left-hand driving, two-tap sinks and tea with milk. Even if they still seem strange, at least now you’re in the know.
A. This makes it difficult to improve
B. There is a method to the madness
C. This unusual behavior makes sense
D. You can know the origins of the practices
E. Either can make washing very uncomfortable
F. This cooled the cup enough to resist the boiling water
G. Here are the reasons for three of Britain’s more puzzling practices

Dear Tom,
How is everything going recently? That has been a long time since we meet in China last
time. Having passed the finally exams, I am busy planning a two-weeks trip to the US during this winter holiday. Do you have some advices about the choice of American cities?
