　　Experts (專家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours' sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard．But not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her l0-year-old boy put up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging(乞求) for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of student "Early birds" in China, he has to get up before six every morning.

　　A report (報道) shows that if they don't have a good night's sleep，students seem to be weaker than they should be．Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another．Too much homework is not the only reason(原因)why students stay up late．Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night．

　　Experts ever say that students should develop(養(yǎng)成)good study habits．So some clever students never study late，they are able to work well in class．

　　In England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited. About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed on to the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seemed all at sea and looked embarrassed(窘迫). No one had told them about the British custom(習(xí)慣)of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at a bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.

　　Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding (點頭) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty.

　　In that country, you shake your head to mean‘yes’----a nod means‘no’. At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.

　　In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble. Also, you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult (成年人)----it's just not done in Thailand.

1．The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen ________.

[　　]

A．were foreigners

B．didn't have tickets

C．made a loud noise

D．didn't line up for the bus

[　　]

A．learn the language of the country

B．understand the manners and customs of the country

C．have enough time and money

D．make friends with the people there

3．To cross one's legs at an important meeting in Europe is ________.

[　　]

A．a(chǎn) common habit

B．a(chǎn)n important manner

C．a(chǎn) serious trouble

D．a(chǎn) bad manner

4．The best title for this article is ________.

[　　]

　　This incident took place one morning outside Albert Schweitzer's hospital in the African jungle(叢林). A patient had gone fishing in another man's boat. The owner of the boat thought he should be given all the fish that were caught. Dr Schweitzer said to the boat owner:

　　“You are right because the other man should have asked permission(允許)to use your boat. But you are wrong because you are careless and lazy. You only twisted(繞)the chain of your boat round a tree instead of fastening(拴牢)it with a padlock.

　　Today it costs a few cents to buy a comb (梳子) for your hair. But 300 years ago, the comb was costly. It was then an important part of a person's wealth (財富). Records show that pirates(海盜)made it a point to take combs of the people on board any ship they robbed.

　　How old are combs? Some combs, made of bone, have been found at the sites(遺址)of early humans. This would place the comb's age at about 9,000 years. Even these combs were made to look pretty. They had shapes of animals carved(雕刻)on them.

　　The best combs of all were the ones that were used in church. Some of these combs were covered with gold. For a long time, it was a custom (習(xí)俗) in the Greek (希臘的) Church to comb a priest's (牧師)hair before all the people.

　　The comb is special to the Japanese. The Japanese women are known for the way they put up their thick, long, black hair. They hold their hair in place with combs. Some Japanese people feel that throwing away a comb will bring bad luck. Also, it is bad luck to pick one up. But a comb received as a parting gift is felt to bring good luck. The comb is supposed to make all the paths(道路)straight. This is because it makes one's hair straight.

　　It is not often that we stop to think about the history of things we use all the time. But if we did stop to think for a minute, then we would find that everything has its own history.

1．This passage is mostly about ________.

[　　]

A．the Japanese combs

B．gold-plated combs

C．the history of combs

D．the cost of combs

2．The first paragraph shows that combs ________.

[　　]

A．had different shapes

B．were expensive

C．could be very pretty

D．were interesting

3．A costly comb is one that is ________.

[　　]

4．The main idea of the passage is that ________.

[　　]

A．throwing away or picking up a comb will bring you bad luck

　　Many people want to buy old, old coins (硬幣). But, before you part with your good money, watch out! You may be buying a coin that is really a fake(假貨).

　　Experts tell us that the making of fake coins goes back 2, 000 years. In the old days, those who faked coins were punished(懲罰)with death. But now the making and selling of fake coins is a legal business.

　　Some of the fake coins are made so well that they are listed in coin books. And these coins are sought after by collectors. They will pay a high price for them. It is one thing to buy a fake coin when it is sold as a fake. But it is another thing to buy a fake coin when it sold as the real thing. The best advice is always to buy from a reputable(聲譽好的)dealer(商人).

　　The dealer will take back a coin if it should prove to be a fake one. But this advice is hard to follow if you visit other countries yourself. You might be tempted to buy coins“from the soil”rather than from a dealer. And many of these fake coins do come right from the soil. The fake coins are buried in secret. Then they are dug up in front of witnesses. The dealers themselves can be fooled by this.

　　Another trick is for someone who sells postcards to have one fake coin. It is a copy of a rare(稀有的)coin and is placed among some real but common coins. The visitor sees the real coins. The visitor thinks then that the rare coin is real too. When this happens, the visitor has been tricked. So, if you decide to buy old coins, be careful !

1．This passage is mainly about ________.

[　　]

A．today's coins

B．how old coins were made

C．fake coins

D．coin collectors

2．This passage tells of coins ________.

[　　]

3．People who are tricked into buying fake coins are most often ________.

[　　]

A．coin collectors

B．people who stay at home

C．a(chǎn)ntique(古玩)dealers

D．visitors to another country

4．The last sentence is trying ________.
