Mark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area' s city councilwoman(女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.
It was too much for Mark. "The problems are too big," he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, "I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here."
Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. "People should just take care of themselves, "he decided. "That' s enough to do. I can' t take on all the problems of the world."
As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn't have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy's arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. "Thanks! "she said. "You've got great timing!"

Although Ripton Rosen was a white boy living in a luxurious penthouse (豪华顶层公寓), he liked to play baseball with his black teammates of the same street. Ripton sometimes invited the boys to his home to play video games. As time went on, several of them became frequent visitors to the 16th-floor penthouse. In time, the group developed into five regulars (常客): Will and Kindu, Philippe Medina, Juan Carlos Robinson and Carlos Suarez.
“In the beginning, it was just a lot of kids moving all over the place,” says Michael, Ripton’s father. Things then began changing in small ways. When the Rosens realized Carlos wasn’t attending school because he didn’t have suitable clothes, they bought him some. Then one night, they took the group to a bookstore after a Chinese dinner and realized there were other needs. “The boys had no interest in books at all,” Michael says. Back at the penthouse, he insisted they sit down to read aloud and start a half-hour reading period before video games or television every day.
Slowly the five black boys became a necessary part of the Rosen family. Housework was assigned, including cleaning, loading the dishwasher and walking Mr. Jenkins, the family dog.
The boys’ own families were puzzled by what was happening. “My mom didn’t believe me when I told her about the penthouse,” says Kindu. “She thought I was involved with something bad.” Juan Carlos’s mother, Esther Ruiz, wondered, “Why would the Rosens be doing this?” But as time went on, she noticed changes in her son. “He was getting responsible. The Rosens are the best.”
25. The Rosens bought Carlos some clothes so that _____.
A. he would study harder B. he would feel comfortable
C. he could go to school D. he could serve the family

China is the biggest market in the world, and many countries such as Germany, the USA, the UK and Russia do a lot of business in China. Let’s have a look at some important tips to help you be successful when dealing with these nationalities.
First, you must be punctual (准时的) with Germans. Even 5 minutes late makes a bad impression. Being punctual is also very important in the USA. In the UK, it’s important to be punctual for business meetings, but nobody expects you to be on time for a social event. Half past seven really means a quarter to eight, or even eight o’clock! With Russians, you should always be on time, though it is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late!
It is best to dress formally and wear dark colours when you meet people from all the four countries. In Russia, designer clothes are very common. Don’t be surprised if you go to an office in the UK on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies have “dress down Friday”, when people wear casual (随便的) clothes.
In Germany, first names are only used by family members and close friends, so be prepared to use titles and last names. In the USA you will usually be invited to use first names almost immediately. The British are quite informal and using first names in business is more and more common, especially among younger people. In Russia, however, nobody uses first names, so use titles and last names.
In conversation, the British and the Americans value humour, and both like to talk about sport. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British and the Americans, but avoid talking about politics. In Russia, say positive things about their country, but avoid making complaints. The Germans, however, prefer to get straight down to business!
So, use these tips, and you will be on your way to a successful international business career!
29. Which color should you NOT wear when meeting a person from the USA?
A. Dark blue. B. Gray. C. Black. D. White.
30. All of the following statements are true EXCEPT ______.
A. you can say something funny when you talk to an American
B. you can use his first name when you talk to an Englishman
C. you must be on time when you meet people from each of the four countries
D. people wear whatever they like on Friday in some companies in the UK
31. When you talk to a Russian, you can ______.
A. complain about something B. say something negative about his country
C. say something good about his country D. point out some disadvantages in politics
32. The tips in this passage are probably given to people from ______.
A. China B. the USA C. Germany D. the UK
D
On Jan 23, 2012, I was aboard a ship on the Yangtze River, listening to the sound of fireworks and eating plate after plate of dumplings.  
On Sunday Feb 10, 2013, I was preparing to celebrate Chinese New Year again — in London’s Chinatown. 
It was raining. It was cold. But ever since I left Beijing in August, I had promised myself I would celebrate Chinese New Year –if only to help with my Beijing ―“homesickness”.
Central London was dressed up for the occasion. There was a stage for a big fireworks display for the evening. Even so, it wasn’t like my real Beijing Chunjie.
Even buying a jiaozi didn’t cheer me up. It cost about 10 times as much as the real thing does in Beijing and got stuck to its rain-ruined paper bag. 
Cold, wet and depressed, I ran into a shop for shelter. Suddenly, there it was. Between the 
packets of dried meat and fish, the bags of rice and the smell of dried noodles in this little Chine-se supermarket, I had found home. 
An hour later, I hurried into my house with bags of frozen jiaozi, packets of sauce and a large bottle of vinegar. I boiled water, tore open the packets, grabbed my chopsticks and settled down 
to a feast. This, I thought, is a Happy Chinese New Year. 
I even watched the fireworks on TV. After all, why face the British weather when I can bring China home in one bite? 
33.How did the author feel when she found some Chinese foods in a supermarket? 
A. A little curious  B .Rather tired  
C. A bit comfortable  D. Very depressed 
34.Why did the author watch the fireworks on TV? 
A. She didn’t want to get wet and cold again.  
B. The square is far away from where she lives. 
C. She doesn’t like fireworks very much. 
D .She was too hungry to go out. 
35.What is the best title of the passage?  
A .Unforgettable Chunjie in Beijing  
B. Wonderful Experience in Britain 
C .Finding Home in London 
D. Festival in London
