二、单词拼写

阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They’re hard working, respectful but strange sometimes. If you don’t understand the culture, you will get some problems with them. Asian people are different from any other cultures if you think you know them, you might want to think again.

How are they different? When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. You can do anything you want but don't disrespect an Asian man. You will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he is your boss. It’s

something called face saving in the Asian culture. It’s ridiculous sometimes but it’s their culture. Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work. Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal.

Americans are very different from Asian people. If you’re Asian, you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them. It will be easier for you since you’re in their countries. Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn’t work that way with Asian people.

If you’re an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks. They will think that you don’t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them; when in fact, you’re just doing your job. You just encourage them to do their work better. Of course, it’s not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee’s mind.

11．The Americans can’t get along well with the Asians probably because______.

A. their cultures are different

B. they don’t like each other

C. both of them are too proud

D. they have different political views

12．The underlined phrase “face saving” in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.

A. saving some money for later use

B. making faces to please your boss

C. showing some respect to somebody

D. helping somebody out of trouble

13．From the third paragraph we can know that it is difficult_________.

A. for the Asians to accept the culture in America

B. for the Americans to adapt to the culture in China

C. for people to learn the culture in a foreign country

D. for people to follow the culture in their own country

14．The negative remarks an American boss gives on your work probably mean he/she _____

A. doesn’t like you any longer
