Frankly,I appreciate myself very much.Yes,I admit I’m in many aspects not as good as other people,but I don’t think I’m always not good.When I find what I’ve done or written is okay,I’ll remain pleased with myself for quite a few days,and if I receive praise for it,I’ll even become so excited as to add a few words to reward myself.
True,I’m not modest at all.People may call me conceited(自负的).But I think otherwise.
I appreciate other people.I appreciate anything good.Isn’t it unfair to forget appreciating myself while appreciating others?
We Chinese generally tend to be modest,and we take pride in being so.For example,a Chinese man will call his own wife zhuojing,meaning “my humble wife”,and his own writings zhuozuo,meaning “my poor writings”.But if you call his wife a “rustic(乡村的)woman”or his writings “trash”,he would,I’m sure,declare he would make a clean break with you angrily.As a matter of fact,there is probably no difference at all between what is said by him and you.
I don’t think it’s wrong of you to freely praise yourself if you’re really worthy of praise.As we know,there is an old Chinese saying disparaging(蔑视) a melon seller,named Lao Wang,who keeps praising his own goods.Well,why can’t he praise his melons if they are really sweet and juicy?
Lao Wang sells melons for a living.How could he carry on business if he,by imitating the affectations(装模作样)of us intellectuals,were to show false modesty about his melons?He would sure enough die of starvation.
Self?appreciation is therefore a key to professional dedication and enjoyment of work.Needless to say,the same is true of those who make a living with their pen.One will lose confidence in writing when he stops admiring his own essays.
1.We know from the first three paragraphs that the author________.
A.is modest in some way

D.thinks it unfair to appreciate others
2.What do we know about the author’s attitude towards Chinese modesty according to Paragraph 4?
A.Supportive. B.Negative.
C.Neutral. D.Careless.
3.The author mentions the example of Lao Wang to prove that ________.
A.Lao Wang is very proud of himself
B.melon sellers should praise their goods
C.reasonable self?appreciation is good
D.writers should learn from Lao Wang
4.The purpose of the passage is to encourage readers to be________.

In recent weeks , small groups of young people appeared on downtown sidewalks in Changsha, Beijing and other cities , holding signs with the words "free hugs ,and offered embraces to any passer-by who would care for one. "
Calling themselves " the hug league" ,they said they were inspired an international news story of a similar type and intended to promote human contact in the face of growing alienation(疏远)in urban china.
We Chinese ,contrary to what is shown in our love movies and television shows , rarely run into each other's arms and cry our hearts out .We are raised in a culture of emotional restraint(克制)。We mark our meetings and departures with a wave of hand and a handshake of light touch . Not so long ago , even young lovers hugging in public places were considered rude.
But that doesn't mean we are immune(免疫的)to the wonderful feeling of human tactility(触感)。I remember my mother was visibly moved when I hold her hand for the first time while walking her across a busy street in the U.S. The circumstance made it more natural .But cultures don't evolve overnight ."It's hard to get rid of the old belief that man and woman shouldn't have any physical contact ,"some explained .In the late 1970s some feared that social dance would lead to sexual (侵扰).But the awkwardness was overcome as more and more people came to accept dancing with partners who were not their spouses (配偶)as a perfectly normal form of recreation.
In this environment of changing social customs manners , how people act could be the working many factors ,including their personality.Some offer bear hugs to everyone they know while others would shiver at the thought of medical personnel touching them with a stethoscope(听诊器)。The line between proper and improper often shifts(移动)with the sands of circumstances.
Offering hugs to strangers on the street is too radical(激进的)a step to have any meaningful impact on our customs.If anything , the huggers should start with their loved ones.
72.The writer think that __________
A free hug is not acceptable at present
B free hug is a proper custom in china
C offering hugs to strangers is nothing new in China
D man and woman should not have any physical contact
73.According to the passage , free hug_________
A was invented by some Chinese youths
B was introduced from other countries
C was intended to find lovers among the strangers
D was beneficial to a person's emotional health
74.The words "contrary to " in Paragraph 3 mean"_______"
A opposite to B different from C similar to D the same as
75.The writer give the example of the social dance to ______
A prove that we are immune to the feeling of human touch
B indicate that the society is always changing
C show that many western customs are being accepted
D show that cultures don't evolve overnight
