21、Water is important to all living things but some areas in the world are short of water a lot. So we should try to protect and save water.

A group of students from Zhejiang University have successfully developed an “air hand-washing machine”. The machine uses an infrared ray induction system (红外线感应系统), which can feel the presence of our hands. If it feels there are hands, the water with the air will come from the tap. And it has been proven that it is nearly as effective as traditional hand-washing. It uses only ten percent of the water that regular hand-washing does. The students have even set up a company to introduce the product to the public.

Li Qizhang, a member of the team that developed the machine, told a reporter that a model of their machine had already been placed in a classroom building at the university and it worked very well.

In 2014, a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands. Washing one’s hands uses a lot of water, Chen thought. Would it be possible to replace the water with air? Others may not give the question a second thought. However, for Chen and Li, who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学) at the time, this was considered (被认为) to be an excellent idea.

Soon, Chen, Li and several classmates started on the project (项目). After a year of research, the team came up with a gravity-driven (重力驱动) hand-washing machine successfully.

【1】The underlined words “presence” means “________” in paragraph 2.

A．形状

B．存在

C．距离

【2】The underlined sentence in the 4th paragraph means ________.

A．other people may no spend a second thinking about the question again

B．other people may think it is impossible to use air instead of water

C．other people may not think or worry about the question at all

【3】Which of the following is TRUE about the “air hand-washing machine”?

A．It doesn’t need any water when you wash your hand.

B．The idea of the machine came to Chen’s mind in a sudden.

C．It was invented by two students from Zhejiang University.

【4】Compared with the air hand-washing machine, how much water can be wasted by regular hand-washing?

A．Only ten percent of the water.

B．About twenty percent of the water.

C．About ninety percent of the water.

22、When you hear Westerners（西方人）say “ Drop in anytime”（随时来玩）or “Come and see me soon” , you should realize that it doesn’t mean you are welcome to come over to their house anytime. It’s wise to telephone before visiting someone.

Never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I may not be able to come.” If you are unable to come after accepting the invitation, be sure to tell those who invite you in advance（提前）that you will not be there.

When you have accepted the invitation to a party or a dinner, it is polite to bring small gifts with you, such as bottles of drink, flowers and chocolate. Sometimes Westerners may take you out to dinner in a restaurant and it does not necessarily mean that he is going to pay the bill at the end of the meal. He might want you to “go Dutch”, which means each person pays his own bill.
