【题目】 When you hear Westerners say “Drop in anytime(随时来玩)” or “Come and see me soon.” you should realize that it doesn't mean you are welcome to come over to their houses at anytime. It's wise to telephone before visiting someone.

Never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I may not be able to come.” If you are not able to come after accepting the invitation, be sure to tell those who invite you in advance(提前) that you will not be there and give your direct excuse to them. Don't_forget_to_say_sorry_if_you_are_absent_from_the_invitation.

When you have accepted the invitation to a party or a dinner, it is polite to bring small gifts with you, such as drinks, flowers and chocolate. Sometimes Westerners may take you out to dinner in a restaurant and it does not mean that he is going to pay the bill at the end of the meal. He might want you to “go Dutch” which means each person pays his own bill.

In our modern society, the crossculture communication between China and Western countries causes the differences in welcome manners. Every culture in the world is equal. We should avoid using our own culture, morality and value to judge foreign culture. We should treat foreign culture carefully. If you don't want to be trapped in embarrassment, it's helpful to learn from what is mentioned above.

【题目】 Imagine a perfect day: the weather is good and everything seems fine. When, suddenly, your mobile phone loses its signal, the television has no programs, and you can't get online with your computer.

What has happened? These are just the types of problems a solar storm(太阳风暴) might cause. You may not think of storms as putting out society in danger. But today, a solar storm is as serious as other bad events, such as earthquakes.

A solar storm is caused by solar flares(太阳耀斑): large explosions(爆炸) near the sun that can give off lots of energy. The strong energy can stop the satellite systems(卫星系统) that control our computers, telecom networks and so on. These storms can even cause the power to go out for weeks or months.

In the past few months, scientists have recorded some of the strongest sun flares in years. The most recent one happened around Valentine's Day, 2011. It caused radio and satellite signals to go down in some northern cities in China.

“Solar flare activity is going to be much worse than what we've seen in the past. We're not talking about a few cities losing power, it could be half of the country, maybe more.”SolarStormWarning. com, a US website about space weather, warned.

Scientists say that little can be done to predict such a storm. Governments around the world are trying to work together before the next storm, although they are not sure when that may happen.

1According to the passage, a solar storm can cause many problems EXCEPT that________.

A.earthquakes happenB.mobile phones have no signals

C.people cannot get onlineD.the power may go out

2According to the passage, solar flares are________.

A.telecom networksB.solar storms

C.large explosions near the sunD.US websites

a. solar flares give off lots of energy

b. people can't get online with their computers

c. solar storms happen

d. satellite systems are stopped

A.abcdB.acdb

C.cabdD.cbad

4The writer wrote the passage mainly to________.

A.call for scientists to predict when the next solar storm will happen
