In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In Eng land, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he or she enjoys it. We should learn about the customs of other people, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helpful to others, especially to those older or weaker. If you remember this, you will not go wrong. Here are some examples of the things that well-mannered people do and do not do. They never laugh at people when they are in trouble. They are always kind either to people or animals. When peo ple are waiting for a bus, or in a post office they line up to wait for their turn. On the bus, they give their seats to older people who are standing. If they accidentally bump into someone, or get in their way, they say "Excuse me" or "I'm sorry". They say "Please" when making a request, and "Thank you" when they receive something. They do not sit down until other persons are seated. They do not talk too much about themselves. When they're eating, they do not speak with their mouths full of food.

A Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you are a thin 14 year-old. That was me in 1940 -- the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsylvania Railway Station. After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking," Everyone else is doing it." When I got home that night, I told my father what I wanted to do. "You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in my eyes. "They are paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that." I followed my father's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since. Of all my jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that struck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with the people who steals. If one of my players was caught stealing, he’d be gone. Whether you are on a sports team. in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble.
1. What can be inferred about the baggage boys?
A.They could earn much, but they must work hard.
B.Many of them earned their money in a dishonest way.
C.They were all from poor families.
D.They were all thin, young boys.
A B C D

2. What does the father's advice imply?
A.It is wrong to give more pay to the passengers.
B.Don't believe them if they are paying you more.
C.Don't follow others to overcharge the passengers.
D.It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy.
A B C D
C
作者父亲的话“If they want to do that,you let them do that.”说明他劝告自己的儿子不要像其他人那样向旅客多要钱。
3. The writer can't put up with stealing because he thinks that ______. A. it is a totally shared experience B. it is considered as the most dangerous C. it does great harm to human relationshipD. it may lead to the loss of his sports team
A B C D
C
根据倒数第二段If one person steals,it destroys trust and hurts everyone.可推断出作者不能容忍盗窃的原因是盗窃会毁掉人们之间的信任,并伤害每个人,即[C]所表达的意思。

A.his father's advice helped him to decide which job to take up
B.working in a sports team was his most important experience
C.he learned much from his shared experience with his team members

本文作者主要讲述了自己小时候在车站当搬运工的经历,这段经历给他的一生带来了巨大的影响。
B When John Weston awoke that morning, he remembered that his mother was going into hospital. He hadn't worked out what was wrong with her. He knew, though, she hadn't been well for some time now, and it bad become familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to a specialist who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself. During the weeks since then the pains had come ever more frequently, and the narrowed eyes be came an almost lasting part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that John's father kept his thoughts to himself more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances (体谅), tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad-tempered that would make you. So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. John's cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round, now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didn't care much for it. Apart from missing his mother (and she was glad she was going away be cause they would make her better), he wasn't very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than her mother.
1. Mrs, Weston went to see her doctor ______.
A.as soon as she realized that something was wrong
B.only after her husband advised her to
C.a long time after the trouble began
D.when John asked what was wrong with her

A.Get an expert to examine her.
B.Send her to hospital.
C.Treat her himself.
D.Advise her to wait for a few weeks.

4. How did John react to his mother's bad temper?
A.He tried to imagine himself in her place.
B.He tried not to notice it.
C.He pretended he had toothache.
D.He behaved himself as well as possible.
A B C D
A
从第二段John...tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad-tempered that would make you.意思是John想,要是自己牙齿总是疼又会怎样呢?那时自己的脾气还不知道会多么坏呢!由此可看出John是站在母亲的角度米体会母亲为什么会发脾气的。
