It had a sign outside : Second-hand (旧的) clothes bought and sold . He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, How much will you give me for these? The man looked at them and then said: Two dollars.What ! said Tom. I had guessed they were worth at least five dollars.No, said the man, they arent worth a cent more than two dollars.Well, said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. Heres your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth.Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say .( )51.

If I have a dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I do not want to because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave ones food on the plate. I have also noticed that when a Chinese sits at an Americans dinner party, he often refuses the offer of food or drink though hes in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China but is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” When an American is served with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “ No，thanks. Ill take some orange juice if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, youd better remember the famous saying: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”( ) 56.

Americans always do the same thins as the Romans doC. you should get used to the local（当地的）customs wherever you goD. you should learn to do as Romans when in RomeCTo protect the environment, most supermarkets in China will stop providing free plastic bags. If you dont want to pay money to buy them, youll have to bring your own shopping bag. What kind of bags will be the best to bring? Students in Kunming Xinying Middle School have some good ideas.Recently fifty-four students of the school held an activity in which they made their own environmentally-friendly shopping bags. Most students used old clothes to make their bags. They painted pictures like the Olympic rings on them. But Wang Shuncheng, a Junior 2 boy, chose a different material (材料). He made his bag with old newspaper. Is a newspaper bag strong enough to hold shopping? Wang says it is, No problem. I put six bottles of water in the bag, he said. Its strong enough!Chen Lisi, a girl, had a more traditional way to make her bag she wove (编织) a bamboo bag. It was not an easy job. With her grandfathers help, Chen spent a whole afternoon making it. She also wove wool (毛线) flowers on the bag. Making bags was not all the students did. They had another job: to persuade their parents and relatives to use environmentally-friendly shopping bags instead of plastic ones. The school will show the bags so that shops and stores can get some ideas from the students work.( ) 61. From the passage we know that _.
