Cittaslow has discovered China, and it is awarding a little village in Jiangsu the title of "slow city"

The bored teenagers of Gaochun are impatient with the leisurely pace of hometown life．For them there is no nightlife to speak of, no bright lights, no excitement and they cannot wait to grow up and leave for the urban attractions of the big cities．But it is this laid-back lifestyle that has attracted international attention．At least, a quiet village within Gaochun county has come under the spotlight．Yaxi village, population 20,000, is about to be designated China's first "slow city" by Cittaslow, the sustainable lifestyle movement that first surfaced in Italy 11 years ago．

At home, the residents at Yaxi are unfazed and pretty much unimpressed by the honor．To them, life has been like this for as long as they can remember．Here, growing old gracefully is natural．

Nobody living in this little county had heard of Cittaslow or the words "slow city" before this．

"The first time I heard the term was last July, when the vice-president of Cittaslow, Angelo Vassallo, visited Yaxi village," says Zuo Niansheng, the chief editor of local newspaper Gaochun Today．

"Vassallo was deeply impressed by this village's natural and cultural resources and said it perfectly fitted the requirements for a slow city," says Zuo．"That was how Yaxi became connected with Cittaslow．

The Slow City must also be committed to protect and maintain the natural environment as well as promote a sustainable way of development ?all of which are the current strategies adopted in Gaochun．"We've been doing this for years," adds Zuo．

Cittaslow was founded in Tuscany, Italy in 1999．It was a spin-off from the Slow Food movement which started, also in Italy, in 1986 as a protest against the first McDonald ' s opening near the Spanish Steps in Rome．The movement championed a return to healthy, nutritious home-grown, home -cooked food．

Slow Food has since expanded globally to more than 130 countries．Its mission has also broadened to include the promotion of sustainable foods and local small businesses, and the localization as opposed to globalization of food production．

Cittaslow is an expansion of the Slow Food movement, and it actively advocates a lifestyle that is sustainable, that will improve quality of life, and will preserve cultural and culinary （烹饪的）heritage．

According the passage, Cittaslow is a（n） ____．

       A．organization         B．person          C．lifestyle       D．honor

What' s the reaction of the residents at Yaxi to the award according the passage? They feel

       A．very excited．      B．very shocked            

       C．indifferent               D．very happy

Why is the village Yaxi awarded the title of “slow city”? Because           .

       A．it is full of excitement and activities of nightlife

       B．the residents at Yaxi enjoy a leisure life

       C．it is very rich and has a lot of attractions

       D．foreign people like small towns than big cities.

It can be inferred from the passage that          .

       A．young people at Yaxi enjoy their life very much

       B．China is more and more popular with foreign people

       C．the first McDonald’s in Europe was opened in Spain

       D．the lifestyle of “slow city” will be good to environment and people

Visitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub．But these friendly pubs can be dangerous places of potential gaffes（失礼）for the newcomers．

       A team of researchers have discovered some of the unknown customs of British pubs - starting with the difficulty of getting a drink．Most pubs have no waiters - you have to go to the bar to buy drinks．A group of Italian youths waiting 45 minutes before they realized they would have to fetch their own．This may sound inconvenient, but there is a hidden purpose．

       Pub culture is designed to promote sociability（社交）in a society known for its reserve．Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served．The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely suitable and really quite normal behavior．“If you haven’t been to a pub, you haven’t been to Britain．” This tip can be found in a booklet, Passport to the Pub: The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customers’ rule of conduct for those wanting to sample “a central part of British life and culture”．

       The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules, the experience may fall flat．For example, if you are in a big group, it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks．Nothing annoys the regular customers and bar staff more than a group of strangers blocking all access to the bar while they chat and hesitate about what to order．

The underlined word “sample” in the first paragraph probably means “________”．

    A．taste                      B．experience              

       C．test                     D．record

The culture of pub in Britain is so developed to ________．

    A．encourage people to communicate with each other

    B．encourage more people to consume drinks

    C．attract more tourists to the pubs             

       D．form its own character of culture

If you don’t follow the local rules in a pub, ________．

    A．you won’t buy good local drinks

    B．you may annoy the regular customers and bar staff

       C．you may fail to feel the local culture

    D．you might get into a dangerous place

What may be the best title for the passage?

    A．Self-service Pubs in Britain

    B．British Local Pubs: Special Chat Places

    C．Local Pub Culture in Britain

       D．Manners in British Local Pubs
