One of my favorite thing to do is to try new restaurants in our city. I’d like try all types of new foods, but I do know that I like. I like seafood and Asian food. Last week, I find a restaurant downtown, in which I had a meal with a friend. I felt that the food in that restaurant was tasted good and that the price was low. It is usually crowd on the weekend. There is a long line of people waited to eat there. So I suggest you should eat there in weekdays. Besides, I don’t think it’s the good idea to bring children there because there’s no space for you to play.

A.      Write clearly.

B.      Review your notes.

C.      Compare your notes.

D.     Organize your notes.

E.      Write down questions.

F.      Come to class prepared

                             How to improve your note taking

61. ________________

   There is nothing that will help you take better notes than coming to class prepared. Before coming to class make sure that you have read all assigned reading and that you have reviewed your notes from the previous class. Coming to class prepared will help you take much better notes. You’ll be able to take more detailed notes on items you don’t fully understand.

62. ________________

   It doesn’t matter how many notes you can take if you can’t make sense of your notes after the lecture is over. Taking clear notes will ensure that you understand the subject matter being discussed, help to remember what is being taught in your mind and will provide you the means to g back after class and review the subject matter being taught..

63. ________________

  When class is over, compare your notes to those taken by other students. Sometimes other students will pick up on things discussed by the teacher that you missed or didn’t find important. Comparing notes will help ensure that your notes are complete and correct. Also, you’ll find good ways to take notes from others.

64. ________________

  Often after class, you will find out that you can’t remember what the teacher was saying. Review your notes as soon as you can. Reviewing your notes directly following a lecture will make sure that you understand your notes and the lecture. Also, it will help you remember the information you learned.

65. ________________

    Quite often you’re going to find that it can be difficult to understand everything the teacher is talking about. Make sure to write down any questions you have or concepts you didn’t understand so that you can go back after class and ask the teacher specific questions or use reference resources to better understand difficult concepts.

Joe came to New York from the Middle West, dreaming about painting. Delia came to New York from the South, dreaming about music. Joe and Delia met in a studio. Before long they were good friends and got married.

They had only a small flat to live in, but they were happy. They loved each other, and they were both interested in art. Everything was fine until one day they found they had spent all their money.

Delia decided to give music lessons. One afternoon she said to her husband:

“Joe, , I’ve found a pupil, a general’s daughter. She is a sweet girl. I’m to give three lessons a week and get $5 a lesson.”

But Joe was not glad.

“But how about me?” he said.” Do you think I’m going to watch you work while I play with my art? No, I want to earn some money too.”

“Joe, , you are silly,” said Delia. “You must keep at your studies. We can live quite happily on $15 a week.”

“Well, perhaps I can sell some of my pictures,” said Joe.

Every day they parted in the morning and met in the evening. A week passed and Delia brought home fifteen dollars, but she looked a little tired.

“Clementina sometimes gets on my nerves. I’m afraid she doesn’t practice enough. But the general is the nicest old man! I wish you could know him, Joe.”

And then Joe took eighteen dollars out of his pocket.

“I’ve sold one of my pictures to a man from Peoria,” he said, “and he has ordered another.”

“I’m so glad,” said Delia. “Thirty-three dollars! We never had so much to spend before. We’ll have a good supper tonight.”

Next week Joe came home and put another eighteen dollars on the table. In half an hour Delia came, her right hand in a bandage.

“What’s the matter with your hand?” said Joe. Delia laughed and said:

“Oh, a funny thing happened! Clemantina gave me a plate of soup and spilled some of it on my hand. She was very sorry for it. And so was the old general. But why are you looking at me like that, Joe?”

“What time this afternoon did you burn your hand, Delia?”

“Five o’clock, I think. The iron-I mean the soup-was ready about five, Why?”

“Delia, come and sit here,” said Joe. He drew her to the couch and sat beside her.

“What do you do every day, Delia? Do you really give music lesson? Tell me the truth.”

She began to cry.

“I couldn’t get any pupils,” she said, “So I got a place in a laundry ironing shirts. This afternoon a girl accidentally set down an iron on my hand and I got a bad burn. But tell me, Joe, how did you guess that I wasn’t giving music lessons?”

“It’s very simple,” said Joe. “I knew all about your bandages because I had to send them upstairs to a girl in the laundry who had an accident with a hot iron. You see, I work in the engine-room of the same laundry where you work.”

“And your pictures? Did you sell any to that man from Peoria?”

“Well, your general with his Clemantina is an invention, and so is my man from Peoria.”

And then they both laughed.

The porter brings your bags to your room and helpfully explains all you want to know. Then he points to the phone and says, “If there's anything else you need, just call.” All this time you have been thinking one thing, “How much should I tip(付小费) him?” To make your next trip a little easier, here's a guide to tipping across some Asian countries.

Bangkok

In general, the more Westernized the place is, the more likely you will be expected to leave a tip. Some top-end restaurants will add a 10% service charge to the bill. If not, waiters will appreciate you tacking on(附加) the 10% yourself. However, if you're eating at a lower-end(低档的) restaurant a tip is not necessary. If you're staying at one of Bangkok's many five-star hotels, expect to tip the porter 20 to 50 baht(泰国货币单位), depending on how many bags you have. Taxis are now metered in Bangkok. Local custom is to round the fare(车费) up to the nearest five baht.

Hong Kong

Tipping is customary in this money-mad metropolis(大都市). Most restaurants add a 10% service charge to the bill, but the extra money often ends up in the pocket of the owner. If the service is good, add another 10% to the bill, up to HK $100 in an especially nice restaurant. For HK $10 hotel porters should do it at all but the nicest hotels where a new HK $20 bill may be more acceptable. When in a taxi, round up(凑整数) to the nearest dollar.

Kuala Lumpur

Tipping in Malaysia is limited to the expensive Westernized hotels, which often add a 10% service charge to your meal or hotel room. If you are at a hotel restaurant, expect a 10% service charge. But at local restaurants, there's no need to add a tip. At five-star hotels, one or two ringgit(马来西亚货币单位) will content a porter. At lower-end buildings don't feel you have to tip. Like Bangkok, many taxis are now metered so you can just round up to the nearest ringgit.

Seoul

Tipping is not part of Korean culture, although it has become a matter of course in international hotels where a 10% service charge is often added. If you're at a Korean barbecue joint(烧烤处), there's no need to add anything extra. But a nice Italian restaurant may require a 10% contribution. If you're at a top-end hotel, so expect to pay 500～1 000 won per bag. Taxi drivers don't accept a tip. Keep the change for yourself.

51. In which of the following cities is it unnecessary to tip the taxi-drivers?

A. Bangkok.            B. Hong Kong.                    C. Kuala Lumpur.      D. Seoul.

52. Which of the following is NOT the unit of money?

A. Charge.              B. Baht.                               C. Won.                       D. Ringgit.

53. From the text, we can infer tipping comes from _______.

A. Hong Kong           B. the west                          C. Asian countries         D. Bangkok

54. If you stay at a five-star hotel in Kuala Lumpur, how much will you pay the porter at least?

A. 10% of service charge.    B. one ringgit.     C. half a ringgit.          D. two ringgit.

55. The writer seems _______.

A. to tell the readers how to travel

B. to give the readers some advice on how to tip

C. to ask the readers to go on a travel to Asian cities

D. to make the trip more pleasant
