阅读理解。     When we don"t understand each other"s language, we talk with the help of signs.
     A Frenchman was once traveling in England. He could not speak English at all. One day he went into
a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waitress came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers into
it and took them out again. The waitress soon brought him a cup of tea. The man moved his head from
side to side. The waitress understood him and took away the tea. In a moment, she brought a cup of
coffeeand put it on the table. The man again moved his head from side to side. He moved his head from
side to side whenever the waitress brought him something to drink. She brought him a lot of different
drinks, but drinks are not food of course.
     When the man was going away, another man came in. This man saw the waitress, and put his hand
on the stomach. That was enough. In a few minutes there was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the
table in front of him.
     So you see, we can"t understand the language of signs so well as the language of words.

阅读理解      In the past, people used to travel to foreign countries because they thought they would be different in    many ways - the buildings, the food, the national dresses and so on. At present, however, one large city is   similar to another. They all have their Hilton or Sheraton Hotels everywhere. They all have their McDonald"s, their KFCs and their Pizza Huts. Office buildings look the same everywhere, and most city centers are   full of office buildings. And of course, people are driving the same brands(品牌) of Japanese or European    cars.
      Then what is the foreign travel for? What do tourists hope to experience in a foreign country that they    can not experience at home? The answer could be that people are very interested in the past.  It is a
nation"s history and culture that are the main attractions. Most people travel overseas to find out what foreign  countries history and cultures used to be like, not what they are like today. Tourists try to learn the
history  and culture of foreign countries by visiting different kinds of museums.
      Every country also has its own beautiful places for tourists to visit. Their own special scenery (风景)    would certainly attract tourists from other countries.
      Finally, there is perhaps a country"s attraction: its people. A country is not just its old buildings, its works of art(艺术品) or beautiful places, it"s also the people who live in it. This is why a country such as Thailand  attracts millions of people. The tourists come mainly because of the friendliness (友好) of the people there.  It is why the Pacific islands are also so popular. The friendly, smiling people make visitors feel welcome.

     American  eating  is  funny. People  in  America  eat  almost everything with a  fork. And it seems that
holding a knife in one"s right hand longer than a few seconds is thought to be against good table manners.
     The system is that if it is necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hands, and cut off a
piece of meat or others. Then  they  put  the knife down, transfer the fork to  their  right  hands, and then
transfer the food to their mouths with  the fork.  This is clearly funny, but it is considered  good  manners.
     There are several results of this system. First,if it is not necessary to use a knife, Americans don"t  use
one, because this greatly complicates(使复杂化)things. Therefore, sometimes they will try to cut things like potatoes and even bacon with a fork. Second, since only one implement(器具)is being used, food has to be chased around the plate with the fork. Third, tables are usually laid with one knife and two forks. The outside fork is for the salad. There is no  need for foreign  visitors to follow the  American system and
try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remember to save it for the meat.
1. The word "transfer" most probably means “________”.
A. move something from one place to another    
B. make up and down
C.take away
2. From this passage we can know that _______.
A. Americans never use knives with their right hands
B. Americans eat everything with a knife
C. Americans use a fork to put food into their mouths
   
3. According to the passage, Americans eat potatoes with a fork probably because ______.   
A. they are too busy to use a knife    
B. there is no knife
C. they think it is complicated to use a knife
4. Which of the following about American eating is NOT true?
A. Holding a knife in one"s right hand longer is not good table manners.
B. Americans will not use a knife if they don"t need.
C. Foreign visitors are not allowed to use knives.
5. The best title for this passage is _______.
A. Right Hand or Left Hand    
B. Knife or Fork
C. Eating Customs in America
