22、   Thinking about my time in France, I noticed quite a few differences between the French and the English.

The first example is about the French language. In French, there are two ways to say ‘you’: ‘tu’ is  the informal  (不正规的) form, while ‘vous’ is the formal form. When I learnt French, I was taught to call everyone ‘vous’ unless ( 除 非 ) they were my family or a friend. So I was surprised that everyone in France used the informal ‘tu’ all the time. School children used ‘tu’ with their teachers as well as the head teacher. Even strangers I met in the street would call me ‘tu’, and sometimes ‘tu’ was written on street signs. But I continued to use ‘vous’ because I didn’t want people to think I was being impolite. To be honest, I’m thankful that in English we don’t have to worry about these things!

As you might know, school children in the UK traditionally wear school uniforms but in France pupils do not wear uniforms. It was a culture shock for me to see children wearing Spiderman T-shirts  and baggy blue  jeans while in the classroom. The final difference was the relaxed attitude at school. Teachers were never in a hurry, and  the children and teachers were given long rests and much time to eat their lunch. While  in  the  UK,  school day might seem highly pressured (有压力的).

The UK and France are only separated by a small channel of the sea, but there are many differences between the two cultures! Anyway, I cannot deny (否认) what a great chance it was to live and work in another country.

【1】Which of the following is NOT a culture shock to the writer?

A. It takes French students much time to eat lunch.

B. French students use ‘tu’ with their head teacher.

C. Students in France wear different clothes at school.

D. Teachers and students in the UK seem highly pressured.

【2】What might the writer say to his friends when he goes back to the UK?

A. It’s very fantastic  to stay in France. B. People in France are more polite than us.

C. The French culture is  just the same as ours. D. It’s more difficult to learn French in France.

【3】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Life in France B. Troubles in France

C. Cultural Differences D. Different Languages

23、If a friend helps you, what do you do in return? You could just say “Thank you”. Or you could write a thank-you note. But most people don’t do this.

“People don’t seem to give thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas says.

Why are people hesitant (犹豫的) about sending thank-you notes? And how do most people react when they receive one?

Kumar and his team asked some students to each write a letter of thanks to another person. Then, they questioned both the writer and the recipient (接受者) about the letter and how it made them feel.

They found that people don’t like to write thank-you notes because they feel like they have to think too much about it. They worry about what to say and how to say it.

But people really like receiving thank-you notes. They feel especially happy.

“If people knew that writing a thank-you note can have such a big influence on the recipient, they would do it more often,” Kumar says.

Kumar says this study makes us think that simple, small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference in how we treat other people and how we feel.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（A）误（B）。

【1】Most people like to write a thank-you note when a friend gives them a favor.

【2】Many students know what to say because they want to think too much.

【3】People would like to get thank-you notes from others.

【4】The writer thinks writing a thank-note can have a big influence.

【5】The study can help us make a big difference in how to treat others.

24、   In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey.Most of them were hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The Monkey King or Sun Wu Kong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.

The Monkey King is not just any normal monkey. In fact, he sometimes does not even look like a monkey!
