The "Thumbs-Up"

  While Western culture has become used to the thumbs-up as a good signal(probably coming from World War II pilots using the signal to show that they were "good to go" with ground crews), there are cultures where a thumbs-up may land you in trouble.In West Africa, as well as Greece, Italy and Middle East, the thumbs-up is pretty much the biggest insult(侮辱).

  Rather more interesting is a thumbs-up in Germany and in parts of Japan-they just see it as the hand signal for the number one.

The "A-OK"

  This sign is mainly used by divers(潜水员)to mean "OK"(to prevent being confused with the thumbs-up sign, which means "rise").Basically the meaning comes out as "great", or "completely fine".However, in a few countries in Europe, people may think you抮e telling them that you think they抮e a 'zero挘?/P>

The "V Sign"

  The sign comes in two formats:one with the palm(手掌)faced outwards, and one with the palm inwards.In America they mean the same thing -"victory".However, if the outside of your hand is facing your target(目标), you抮e giving somebody a long-built insult in Great Britain and many English-speaking countries such as Australia, Ireland and New Zealand.Winston Churchill famously used the "incorrect" version of the V sign during the early years of the war, turning the outside inside later.The V sign is also considered rude in Italy.

The "Corna"

  The corna hand gesture has most recently been adopted by fans of rock and heavy metal music.Nowadays many Americans use the gesture simply to mean "rock on", or in support of the University of Texas in Austin(known as the "Hook抏m Horns").Today it is still popular in Spain, Brazil and Slovakia.Historically, however, the symbol possibly dates back to Ancient Greece.

(1)

Which of the following signs doesn抰 have an insulting meaning?

[  ]

A.

The "Thumbs-Up".

B.

The "A-OK".

C.

The "V Sign".

D.

The "Corna".

(2)

What information can we get from the passage?

[  ]

A.

The "V Sign" was first used by Winston Churchill.

B.

Italians often use the "Thumbs-Up" to praise others.

C.

You are most likely to see the "Corna" in a heavy metal music concert.

D.

The "A-OK" and the "Thumbs-Up" have the same meaning to divers.

(3)

If you travel abroad, you 抎 better not use the "V Sign" in ________.

[  ]

A.

Greece or Italy

B.

Germany or Japan

C.

Ireland or Italy

D.

Spain or Brazil

阅读理解
     I'm seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the
counter (柜台) and you put things in their bags for them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard
work.
   While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I
remembered his name and said, "Mr Castle, how are you?" We talked about this and that. As he left,
he said, "It was nice talking to you, Brett." I felt great, he remembered me. Then I looked down at my
name plate. Oh, no. He didn't remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had put "Irving"
down on my name plate. If he'd have said, "Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?" I'd have been ready
for him. There's nothing personal here.
    The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of
these was: you couldn't accept tips. Okay, I'm outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people,
the natural reaction (反应) is to take a quarter and give it to me. I'd say, "I'm sorry, I can't." They'd get
angry. When you give someone a tip, you're sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in
their hand and you expect them to say, "Oh, thanks a lot." When you say, "I'm sorry, I can't." they feel
a little put down . They say, "No one will know." And they put it in your pocket. You say, "I really can't."
It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically (身体上) to prevent him from tipping
you. It was not in agreement with the store's belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing
and made the customer feel good. I just couldn't understand the strangeness of some people's ideas. One
lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter
at her or eaten it or something.
   I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I
had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.

1. What can be the best title for this text? 

A. How Hard Life Is for Box Boys        
B. Getting along with Customers 
C. Why I Gave up My Job                  
D. The Art of Taking Tips

2. From the second paragraph, we can infer (推断) that ________. 

A. the writer didn't like the impersonal part of his job 
B. with a name plate, people can easily start talking 
C. Mr Castle mistook Irving for Brett 
D. Irving was the writer's real name

3. The box boy refused to accept tips because ________. 

A. customers only gave small tips 
B. some customers had strange ideas about tipping 
C. the store didn't allow the box boys to take tips 
D. he didn't want to fight with the customers

4. The underlined phrase "put down" in the third paragraph probably means ________. 

A. misunderstood    
B. defeated      
C. hateful        
D. hurt
