The drunk says, “I havent got it.”The waiter cant believe it. He picks the guy up, beats the living daylights out of him, then throws him out into the street.The next day the same drunk walks back into the same bar and says, “Waiter, buy everyone in the house a drink and give me the bill.” In disgust (厌恶), the waiter says, “What?

It means that other places often look better, more interesting than the place where you live. Some people worry that young Chinese are beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring Chinese culture and, instead, buying Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating western holidays.Foreign books and soap operas are good, but Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice, but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to compare with Midautumn Festival. And lets not forget the part of Chinese culture I like best：its friendliness. Not all countries are as warm as China.Its good to enjoy other cultures and to learn from them, but they can never replace your own culture. Its good to look on the other side of the fence, but make sure you take a good long look. You will find that the grass isnt always greener.60The author thinks young Chinese _.A. are foolish in learning our own cultureB. are ignoring our own cultureC. are interested in our own cultureD. are hating our own culture61In young Chinese peoples eyes, which of the following is NOT the “greener grass”？ _A. Japanese cartoon books. B. Korean soap operas.C. Christmas D. The Midautumn Festival.62In the authors opinion, what is the best characteristic (特点) of Chinese culture? _A. Friendly B. Hardworking. C. Brave. D. Honest.63.What is the best title for the passage? _A. Chinese Culture and Western Culture B. Simple Young ChineseC. That Grass Not Always Greener D.

From the first week of classes it was obvious that Gaia was an excellent student and a very sociable young lady. She was always eager to join in class discussion.
