22、   People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture. Knowing them will help you to behave properly.

First you should know how to put knives and forks. The forks are always on the left while knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons, you should know the bigger one is for soup and the small one for dessert. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap.

Then dinner starts with a small dish. Some people pray before they start eating, and other people may keep silent for a moment. After that everybody starts. After the small dish, you will get a bowl of soup-but only one bowl of soup and never ask for a second. Many Westerners like to use their fingers when they eating chicken or other birds at table, but never touch beef or other meat in bones. It is polite to finish eating everything on your plate, so don't take more food than you need. Of course you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot, but do not laugh all the time at the table.

However, table manners change over time. They follow the fashion of the day. Also, table manners are only important at formal dinner parties. If you're not sure what to do, you can always follow your hosts. Although good manners always make you look good, you do not need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends or family.

23、   Emergencies（紧急情况）don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.

In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada

Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.

When to call

Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.

When in an emergency call

When you dial the 911 operator（接线员）, it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help?

Don’t hang up（挂断）!

If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. That way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.

A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help. She had been taught to use a speed-dial function.

【1】The emergency number 911 was first used in ________ in the USA.

A．1958

B．1968

C．1978

D．1999

【2】Why was 911 chosen to be the emergency call?

A．Because other countries also used the number.

B．Because it was suggested by the phone company.

C．Because it was simple and easy to remember and dial.

D．Because it was also used in many parts of Canada.

【3】People can’t call 911 when ________.

A．a bus hits a boy badly

B．a girl feels bored

C．an old lady falls off the stairs, unable to stand up

D．some people can’t get out of a burning building

【4】Which is the RIGHT thing to do?

A．Wait for the operator’s words to end the call.

B．Tell the operator what has happened and hang up.

C．Test if your phone can get through to 911.

D．Tell the operator everything as quickly as possible.

【5】Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A．911 is an emergency number almost throughout the United States.

B．We haven’t got a worldwide universal（通用的）emergency number yet.

C．Usually phone books list emergency call numbers.

D．The dog Faith pressed the three numbers 911.

24、[素材选自21st CENTURY READING Book 1]

穿着的重要性

We often worry about what others will think of us because of our clothes. But researchers are beginning to think that our clothing has a powerful effect on how we see ourselves.

Scientists Adam Galinsky and Hajo Adams report that there is science behind our style. In their research, Galinsky and Adams had some participants wear white coats similar to the ones scientists or doctors wear. Other participants wore their normal clothes. In the experiment, participants saw cards with different­colored words on them. They had to say the color of the word they saw. The people wearing the white coats said the correct color more often. They think that the white coats made the participants feel more confident and careful.

Fashion blogger Jessica Quirk believes that our clothes greatly affect how we feel about ourselves. She says that people should pay more attention to what they wear. For example, we should choose a look that makes us feel more creative and happy. One way to do this at work is to “dress up for the exciting job we want.” Another way is to wear special clothes that means something to us. For example, Quirk wears one pair of shoes to all her important meetings. They are her “lucky” shoes.

Our clothes are “like our second skin.” The clothes we wear can affect our behavior. They can also tell the world something about us.

【1】What does the underlined word “participants” mean in Chinese?

A.参与者 B.调研者

C.科研者 D.普通市民

【2】Which is the right order of the research?

a. Participants looked at the words each written in a different color.

b. The researches counted the correct items.

c. The participants said the colors, not the words.

d. The researchers gave some participants white coats to wear.

A.d→c→a→b B.d→a→c→b

C.b→a→c→d D.b→c→a→d

【3】If your friend likes wearing white clothes, he may be ________.

A.handsome and tidy

B.confident and careful

C.powerful and rich

D.hard­working and strict

【4】When does Quirk wear her “lucky” shoes?

A.When she meets her good friends.

B.When she has her birthday party.

C.When she attends important meetings.

D.When she goes shopping.

【5】What does the text mainly tell us?
