A
“How far is the next village?” the American asks a man standing by the edge of the road. In some countries, because the man realises that the traveller is tired and eager to reach his destination (目的地), he will politely say “Just down the road.” He thinks this is more encouraging, gentler, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling “being tricked”. He thinks the man deliberately (有意地) lied to him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.
Had conditions been reversed (颠倒过来), the American would have felt he was “cheating” the driver if he had said the next town was not too far, and if he would be sympathetic (怜悯的) to the weary driver, he would say “You have a good way to go yet, it is at least fifteen miles.” The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect.
Whether to be accurate or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you are aware of (知道) the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognise the problem.

A. wants to encourage him to go further

A. are polite to anybody
B. like to be honest and accurate

3.If you ask an American how far it is from the next village, he will ________.
A. give you an accurate answer if he knows the distance
B. say that he doesn't know but he will encourage you to go on
C. decide whether you are tired or not, and then tell you
D. tell you politely it is close though he knows it isn't
答案与解析 A 从其次段美国人的回答可以推知。
4.The short passage advises us to ________.
A. learn some customs of America
B. tell the truth to Americans more than to the people from other countries

In Vietnam, TetTrungThu (tettrungthoo), or the MidAutumn Festival, is one of the most popular family holidays. It is held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month.
Vietnamese families plan their activities around their children on this special day. In a Vietnamese folk story,parents were working so hard to prepare for the harvest that they left the children playing by themselves. To make up for the lost time, parents would use the MidAutumn Festival as a chance to show their love and thanks for their children.
As a result, the MidAutumn Festival is also called the Children's Festival. In the United States, this tradition continues in many VietnameseAmerican families. TetTrungThu activities are often centered on children and education. Parents buy lanterns for their children so that they can take part in a lantern parade at dawn. Lanterns mean brightness,while the parade means success in school. Vietnamese markets sell a variety of lanterns, but the most popular children's lantern is the star lantern. Other children's activities include arts and crafts (手工艺) in which children make face masks and lanterns. Children also perform traditional Vietnamese dances for grownups and take part in contests for prizes and scholarships. Unicorn (麒麟) dancers are also very popular at TetTrungThu festivities.
Like the Chinese,Vietnamese parents tell their children folk stories and serve mooncakes and other special treats under the bright moon. A favorite folk story is about a carp (鲤鱼) that wanted to become a dragon. The carp worked and worked and finally changed itself into a dragon. Parents use this story to encourage their children to work hard so that they can become whatever they want to be.
