Impossible as it seemed, Terry decided to run across Canada. He hoped to raise one million dollars for cancer research. Few believed he would make it Anyway, on April 12, 1980, after many months of training, Terry Fox began his Marathon of Hope. Almost no one showed up to see him begin his journey. For the first days of his marathon, Terry Fox was alone. He got up early and started running at 4:30 am. Day by day, people began to realize that something big was happening on the lonely road. As people saw Terry, they stopped and donated (捐赠) money for cancer research.
However, his health took a rapid turn for the worse several months later. The cancer had returned and it was in his lungs(肺). He had to give up his marathon on September 1,1980, Terry died a few months later, at the age of 22. In his short life, he raised $ 24 million for cancer research --- one dollar for every Canadian.

26、Different countries have different customs and cultures. Every culture around the world has different customs and ways of communicating. When you learn a language, you learn more than words.
In China, people are used to saying “sorry” to show that they regret doing something wrong. But it’s very proud for American people to have polite manners towards one another in public. They often use the word “sorry”—even when they don’t really mean it! Usually, if they want to ask a stranger for the time, they will start by saying “Sorry to trouble you.” If they’re five minutes late for the appointment, they will greet the person by saying “Sorry, I’m late!” It’s quite different in China. They use the word “sorry” in so many different situations that the meaning of the word has changed a little over time. The two main dictionary definitions (定义) of “sorry” are: 1) feeling sad for someone else because of their problems or bad luck; 2) feeling regret because you’ve done something wrong.
So what does “sorry” really mean? And why do western people use it so much? Well, in western culture, saying “sorry” is a way to be polite. It’s also a very clever way to get what they want. If you want to borrow something from others, you’d better say “sorry” to them about something. Or it’s hard for you to get what you want. So maybe saying “sorry” is not only just being polite, but also a good method to get what you want!
【1】How many examples of the use of “sorry” are given by Americans in the second paragraph?
A.Two.
B.Three.
C.Four.
D.Five.
【2】When do people in America say “sorry” according to the passage?
A.When they regret doing something wrong.
B.When they ask strangers for help.
C.When they greet people for the first time.
D.When they arrive at a place early.
【3】What does the underlined word “appointment” in the passage mean?
A.Idea.
B.Class.
C.Date
D.Safety.
【4】In which country do people say “sorry” to get what they want?
A.Japan.
B.China.
C.Korea.
D.Germany.
【5】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.How to Say “Sorry” Correctly.
B.The Different Meanings of “Sorry”.
C.Why Western People Say “Sorry”
D.Why Chinese People Say “Sorry”
27、The dragon is a great animal in Chinese culture. It brings the wind and rain. It is said that every year on the second day of the second lunar (阴历) month, the dragon wakes up from its winter sleep and raises its head. Because of this, the day is called “Dragon Heads-raising Day” (Longtaitou). This year, it falls on February 24th.
Old people believed that after Longtaitou, there would be more rain. And rain is very important to farming. So Longtaitou was the start of spring and farming.
People have many ways to celebrate the festival. The most popular one is to have a haircut. Many people believe that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to your uncles-mainly your mother’s brothers. They hope getting a haircut on Longtaitou keeps them away from bad luck.
Among Chinese people’s festival traditions, there is always a place for food. During the Longtaitou festival, people eat food named after dragons. Noodles are called dragon’s beard (longxu). Dumplings are dragon’s ears (long er). And spring roll (春卷) are dragon’s skin (longlin).
