阅读理解。     How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere  in the world? The sun was 
probably the world"s first  "clock" ,  except in  the far north, where the Eskimos (爱斯基摩人) live.  
There, it"s  dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer.  But in most of  the world, people 
have used the sun for a clock.  Even today, if you  don"t have a clock, you still know that when the sun 
shines, it"s day,  and when it"s dark,  it"s night.  The sun can also tell you if it"s morning,  noon, or 
afternoon.       
     People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides.  In the daytime, for about six hours, the 
water rises higher and higher on the   beach.  And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The 
same   thing happens again at night.  There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.        
     Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and  the stars. The whole sky is their 
clock.        
     In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes 
direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.       
     A sand clock is an even better clock.  If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the 
picture,  you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part 
to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another 
hour to go back again.    1. According to the passage, there are ______ ways to tell time besides the clock and watch. A. 3             
B. 4
C. 5             
D. 7 2. The Eskimos in the far north can"t use the sun for a clock  because ______.                 A.  they know very little about the sun                 
B.  the sun there never goes down in winter                
C.  it"s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun                
D.  it has long dark winters and long light summers 3. The underlined word "tides" in the passage means  ______.         A. 洋流            
B. 潮汐         
C. 海啸            
D. 波浪 4. In which page of a newspaper can you most probably read  this passage?           A. News.               
B. Science.           
C. Business.           
D. Advertisement. 5. What"s the best title for the passage?                 A. Different Ways to Tell Time                 
B. Useful Machines to Tell Time                 
C. The History of the Clock                 
D. The Development of the Clock

阅读理解。     (1) Although we may not realize it, when we talk with others we   make ourselves understood not 
just by words. 
 We send messages to the   people around us also by body movements. A smile and 
handshake(握手)show welcome.  Waving one"s hand is to say "Goodbye".  Nodding   the head  
means agreement, while shaking it means disagreement. In China and some English-speaking countries,
 these body movements have the same meanings.       
     But not all body languages mean the same things in different countries.  For example,  nodding the head in some Asian countries means not "Yes" but "No".       
     When we speak a foreign language,  (2) to know the meanings of the body movements is important 
in the foreign countries.
  In Russia, France and some of South American countries men kiss (吻) each 
other when they meet.  Men don"t kiss each other in China or English-speaking countries. In England, 
older people usually shake hands when they meet someone for the first time. However, young people 
don"t shake hands.  (3) In France, people shake hands in the office every morning.  French people kiss

                             Table Manners in America   
          Don’t circle your plate with your arms. If you do so, you will
become the focus(焦点) of the table. Everyone would wonder,"Is
there anything wrong with the food?" This may give a wrong message
that you don"t like the food or something like that. 
     Don"t push the plate back when finished. Leave it where it was.
Do you want to let the hostess(女主人) know that you"ve just
done a labour?
     Don"t lean(倚靠)  back and say"I"m through"or"I"m full". Just
put the fork and knife across the plate. That"s all. 
     Don"t cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one
or two bites(块) at a time. 
     Never take a huge mouthful of anything. Do you want to show
how hungry you are? Don"t do that. It"s not so good.    
     It"s never good   to reach across the table for anything. If the
thing you want is not at hand, simply ask the nearest person for
help, like “Mrs Smith, could you pass me the dish?”

根据短文内容填空。

     Most of us may play ping-pong,  but perhaps you don"t know who invented it.  The story is that
 it started when two students at Cambridge University began knocking a cork (软木塞) to each other
 across a table, using old boxes.  In about the year 1800 an American businessman of sports goods 
produced a game that he called Indoor Tennis.  The Americans didn"t find interest in it.  He shipped
(用船运) it to London and it soon became popular in Britain.  The game was then played across dining
 room tables, or on the floor with the net string (网) between chairs.  The players used a ball made of
 cork or rubber.  A few years later a hollow (空的) ball like the one we use today was invented.  
People all over the world loved it at once.  A man called Mr Wood in London, had the idea of covering 
the bats (拍子) with rubber. Later a London businessman called this game "ping-pong". "Ping" meant
 the sound of the bat hitting the ball, and "pong" was the sound of the ball hitting the table. 
     The game is played everywhere, but not everybody likes it.  Some even think it"s a silly game. 1.  _______  at Cambridge University first played table tennis, using cork and _______.
2. A game called Indoor Tennis _______ in about the year 1800.
3. Although the American didn"t like the game, _______ showed great interest in it
     and it became popular.    
4. After hollow balls were invented, the bats _______ were invented by Mr Wood.
5. 将文中画线部分译成汉语。
