        Except for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. There's no exchange of presents among
    business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe
    (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but
    among ourselves we don't see the need for presents.
        Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things
    for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn't. I don't often re-member a friend's birthday, and
    few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I'd get unpleasant.
    But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland-won't go wrong, except to government
    employees (政府职员) who can't be given presents.
        You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday
    presents. You should only say, "It's so nice. Thanks…" when you get Christ-mas or birthday presents.
         You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you're never asked to.
    Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.
         At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to
    people who have been helpful during the year-doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders-anyone
    who has often helped us.
    1. What does "close friends" mean in the passage?
    A. The friends who are very kind.
    B. The friends who live close to each other.
    C. The friends who were once classmates.
    D. The friends who you like most.
    2. What kind of presents don't Americans usually open in front of the givers?
    A. The small presents.
    B. Christmas or birthday presents.
    C. The expensive presents.
    D. The presents for dinner party.
    3. Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas?
    A. To pay them.
    B. To help them.
    C. To thank them.
    D. To make them work harder.
    4. Which of the following do you think is right?
    A. American business people don't want presents because they are rich enough.
    B. The writer of this passage must be an American.
    C. Everyone must give presents to one's family and friends at Christmas.
    D. Government employees can get little presents from a foreigner.
    5. What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. Present-giving in the United States.
    B. Customs (习俗) in the United States.
    C. American people and present-giving.
    D. When and how to give presents.

        Kong Linghui, the Chinese former (前) table tennis genius who claimed gold metals for ping pong at
    three world-level events, said during his career (一生事业) that he had two wishes: to be an "ever-green
    tree" in the table tennis field; and to contribute to the Olympic Games in his homeland.
        One of those wishes is soon to come true. On the morning of October 18 last year the Chinese champion,
    who won the World Table Tennis Championships, Table Tennis World Cup, and Olympic Games, boarded
    a bus to the table tennis training base in Zhengding, Hebei Province. He was about to spend his 31st birthday
    as coach of the Chinese women's ping pong team for the Beijing Olympic Games.
         A week earlier Kong had made an emotional announcement that he was retiring. "I really don't want to
    drop my ping pong bat," he said, before following with the news about his new coaching role, to a burst of
    applause (掌声).
         "I'm so excited and this applause gives me great encouragement to switch from a player to a coach," he
    added.
         "It's still hard for the young table tennis players in Sweden to surpass (超过) the veteran Waldner if they
    want to continue their career, but it's not the same here in China, where young ping pong talents keep
    popping up and overtaking the old generation."
         The game of table tennis first appeared in the Olympic Games in Seoul in 1988. Since then China has
    claimed 11 gold medals, and in many Chinese fans' eyes nothing but first place is good enough. It is a
    position that puts a huge amount of pressure on Kong as he prepares the women's team for 2008.
         "I think he's going to be a good coach based on his presence and glorious past achievements. He's going
    to make a difference in the Beijing Games," said Liu Guoliang, one of Kong's ex-teammates and now coach
    of the national men's team.
         Kong's father is also a table tennis coach. He started playing ping pong when he was 6 years old. During
    his 25-year career Kong produced many memorable moments of table tennis brilliance, of which two
    definitely deserve mentioning. 
         One was in 1995, when the 20-year-old Kong won his first men's singles title in gripping style at the
    World Table Tennis Championships. Another was at the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000 when he defeated
    Swedish star Waldner by a tiny margin (差距) and then kissed the Chinese national flag printed on his
    T-shirt, howled and burst into tears.
         Kong's story cannot be told without mentioning Liu Guoliang, who is one year younger, but was already
    lead coach for the Chinese men's team when Kong took on his new role. They met each other for the first
    time at the national training camp for juniors at the end of 1987.
         In the round robin of the team Liu defeated Kong. Rather than turning Kong against Liu, his defeat
    brought the pair closer and they worked together vowing to some day become world champions.
         In 1995 Kong beat Liu in the male singles final at the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships. Stepping
    down from the winner's platform, Kong shook hands with Liu and said to him that competition is cruel, on
    which Liu agreed. It marked the beginning of a friendly rivalry between the close friends that lasted years.
    1. Kong Linghui will act as a ______ for China in 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
    [     ]
    A. player
    B. coach
    C. reporter
    D. businessman
    2. Waldner is a (an) ______ ping pong player in ______.
    [     ]
    A. young; China
    B. old; Sweden
    C. old; China
    D. young；Sweden
    3. The game of table tennis has been an event of Olympic Games for ______.
    [     ]
    A. about 100 years
    B. nearly 20 years
    C. about 4 years
    D. more than 20 years
    4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    [     ]
    A. Liu Guoliang hates Kong Linghui.
    B. Liu GuoLiang beated Waldner at the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000.
    C. Kong Linghui is older than Liu Guoliang.
    D. Kong Linghui became a coach earlier than Liu Guoliang.
