Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2016·河北中考)In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts(主人) and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guesthost relationship
8
in China is much more different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western hosts sometimes look rude(粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests.
In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.
My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a nonsmoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North America homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke？” But, don't be surprised if they say, “No, you can't smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they don't allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.
Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.
In China, you probably won't need to change the guesthost relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.
1．Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the in the world.
A．best B．worst
C．most natural D．most difficult
2．When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often .
A．buys some fruit B．feels like a god
C．wants some gifts D．takes a cup of tea
3．If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?
A．It's OK if you smoke here.
B．Let's smoke together.
8
C．Sorry, you can't smoke here.
D．Smoking is a bad habit.
4．What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?
A．Think back to. B．Get used to.
C．Look forward to. D．Keep close to.
5．What is the main idea of this passage?
A．Foreigners should learn from Chinese.
B．Hosts must do things in the guest's way.
C．Western hosts are always nice to guests.
D．People should understand cultural differences.
Ⅳ.任务型阅读
阅读短文，并按要求完成1～5题。
(2019·预测)We know music is very important in our daily life. Today most stores, stations, restaurants and other places play music. Do you notice music played at any of those places when you go somewhere? You might even hear music on a farm or in an office.
Scientists believe that music influences the way people behave. They think that the sound of western classical music makes people feel richer. When a restaurant plays classical music, people would spend more money on food and drinks. When the restaurant plays modern music, people would spend less money. Without music, people would spend even less.
Scientists also believe that loud and fast music makes people eat faster. Some restaurants play fast music during their busy hours. This makes people eat faster and leave quickly. Restaurants can make more money in this way.
Some scientists think that music makes you think and learn better. They say that music helps students to be more active. It is true that people learn better when they are relaxed. And listening to music can help you relax.
The next time you hear music somewhere, be careful. It might influence the way you do things.

Ⅶ.Dear Cindy，
I'm glad to know that you are coming to China. China is a country with a long history, so there are many customs here. Let me tell you some of them.
Firstly, you are supposed to shake hands when you meet someone for the first time. Secondly, when you eat dinner with other people, it's rude to point at others with your chopsticks. And don't make any noise when you have your soup. Besides, if you are going to a party, you are supposed to arrive at the party on time, or a few minutes early. You are not supposed to give a clock or a watch to a friend as a present, because that means “death” in Chinese.
I hope that these tips are useful. Have a good time in China!
Best wishes!
Yours，
Wang Xue
