It was two days before Christmas, when my ten-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bike.  Her bike was too   16  , and it needed repairing as well.
As Christmas   17  ,  her dream for a bike seemed to disappear, we thought, for she didn’t say it again. We were busy   18  some beautiful story books, a doll house, a holiday dress and toys. Then to our surprise, on December 24, she said she really wanted a bike more than   19  .
Now we didn’t know   20  to do. It was just too late. We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing   21  presents, parents’ presents, a brother’s present and friends’ presents till midnight. So there was   22  time to take to buy the "right hike" for our little girl. Thinking we were parents who would make their child unhappy, we felt sorry and   23  .
Suddenly my husband had an idea. "What about making a little bike with clay (mi) and writing a note that she could trade in (交换) the model bike for a real one?" So he spent the next five hours carefully   24  with clay to make a small bike.
25  Christmas morning, we were so excited for Almie Rose to open the little box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. She opened and read the   26  loudly. She looked at me and said, "So, does this mean I can trade in this bike for a real   27   ?" Smiling, I said, "Yes!" Almie Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied, "I would   28  trade in this beautiful bike   29  Daddy made me. I   30  keep it than get a real bike. This is the best Christmas present I have ever got in my life!"

Mr. and Mrs. Harris had always spent their summer holidays in a small hotel at the seaside near their hometown. One year, however, Mr.  Harris made a lot of money in his factory, so they decided to go to a foreign country and stay at a really good hotel.
They flew to Paris, and arrived at a 5-star hotel late in the evening. They thought they would have to go to bed hungry, because in that small hotel where they used to stay in the past, no meals were served after seven in the evening. They were surprised to be told that the hotel served dinner until ten.
"Then what are the times of meals?" asked Mrs. Harris.
"Well, Madam, we serve breakfast from seven to eleven, lunch from twelve to three, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to ten."

Many years before the United States was founded(建立), Americans had already invented barbecues. But the first barbecues, in fact ,were the invention of the Taino Indians of Haiti, who dried their meat on raised frames(架子)of sticks over fires. Spanish explorers spelled the Taino word as barbacoa, and as time passed, English settlers along the Atlantic coat had their own barbecues.
One summer day in 1773, Benjamin Lynde, a citizen of Massachusetts, wrote in his diary, “Fair and hot ; Browne;hack overset.” That is , on a bright and hot day he went to the Brownes to attedn a barbecue, and his carriage(马车)fell over. It shows that the barbecue had its social occasion by that time. Large animals would be roasted whole on frames over hot fires, and neighbours would be invited to dinner.
In later centuries, as settlers moved to the west, the barbecue went along with it, reaching an especially large size in Texas, where a pit (坑)for fuels(燃料) such as tree branches might be over ten feet deep. Today , the barbecue grills(烧烤架)which are fueled by charcoal(木炭) or electricity are likely to be small and easy to move , and can cook only parts of an animal at a time, but people still have barbecues out of doors and always invite their neighbours or friends over.
小题1:Who invented the barbecues first in history?
A.American people.B.Taino Indians.C.Spanish explorers.D.English settlers.
小题2:The second paragraph mainly tells us that the barbecue_______________.
A.is only held on a hot sunny dayB.welcomes people who keep diaries
C.is held both indoors and outdoorsD.has its social occasion for over 200 years
小题3:The underlined expression “ social occasion” can be best translated into______________.
A.社交功能B.社会福利C.社会地位D.社会背景
小题4:The following are all the barbecue ways    EXCEPT __________________.
A.drying meat on raised frames of sticks over fires
B.roasting a whole animal over a pit full of burning tree branches
C.cooking parts of animals over fires on grills fueled by charcoal
D.heating meat in the bright and hot daylight

A Solar-powered Plane---Lowcarbon
Earlier this month, a solar-powered (太阳能动力的)plane called Lowcarbon took off to the sky for the first time. It has passed an important test on the way to travel around the world.
Lowcarbon took off from an airport in Switzerland(瑞士)at 45 km an hour. It slowly rose into the sky.
“There has never been an airplane so big, so light, using so little energy,” said Bertrand Piccard, a leader of the project.
During the 90-minute flight, Lowcarbon did several turns. It climbs nearly 1.6 km above the countryside.
Engineers plan to test a night flight in July. Then they will use the results of the tests to build a second plane. They plan to travel around the world in that plane in 2012. “We want to fly it day and night with no fuel,” Piccard said.
Piccard and pilot Andre Borschberg will take Lowcarbon around the world .They will make a few stops to change places and rest after a long time in the air----and to show off their aircraft.
Lowcarbon flies at 70 kph on average(平均). That is faster than a bike and slower than a car. The pilots will keep it in the air for up to five days at a time.

Different countries have different customs. When you travel to another countries,please follow their customs,just as the saying goes,“             .”
Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip(付小费).It is usual to tip porters who help carry your bags,taxi drivers and waiters. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.
In England,make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It’s important to respect lines there. It’s a good idea to talk about the weather. It’s a favorite subject of conversation with the British.
In Spain,it’s a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late,and restaurants do not generally open until after 9 pm.
In Arab countries,men kiss one another on the cheek(脸颊). Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.
In Japan,people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card,don’t put it into your pocket right away. The person expects you to read it.
Don’t forget to be careful of your body language to express something In conversation. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.
