阅读理解。Dear Rose,
     I like your programmes very much. I"m now writing to ask you something about American social
customs .My American friends want me to join them in their dinner party. I am very happy and have
decided to go, but I"m a little worried about it, too. The social customs in my country are very different
from here, so I"m afraid of making mistakes. Should I bring a present, such as sweets or flowers? Should
I arrive on time or a little late?
At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I"m
thankful for their kindness? 
                                                                                                                                    Wang Lin
Dear Wang Lin,
     It"s a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or
you may bring a bottle of wine if you know that your friends drink it. You should arrive on time or five to
ten minutes late. Don"t get there early. If you"re going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should
call and tell them. Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don"t know about choosing the right fork or
knife, just watch the other
people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person next to you. If you like
the food, say so. Of course, you"ll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It"s also a good idea
to send a thank you card the day after.

举一反三
        The new book Harry Potter and the Half-Blood is warmly welcomed by the children in China. It sells well across China. You can see and hear the advertisements about the book here and there.
        Why is the book so attractive to children? After reading it, I was attracted by the magic world. I can not help asking: where is our own Harry Potter?
       
China has a long history and colorful culture. With a large market of teenagers, China published(出版)many popular books among children. However, why are the present books not as good as those foreign ones?    
        Firstly, quite a number of children"s books are written for teaching, and they have little interest. Reading them, children often have a feeling of being “educated”. Certainly, they don"t like them. Secondly, fewer children like the same stories, but most Chinese books are usually much the same. One knows the ending as early as in the beginning. Finally, the writers seldom think about children"s needs.
        First-class Reading, for children should be interesting, and written in their language.1. About the present Chinese children"s books, which is NOT right?   A. They have little interest.            
B. Our writers seldom know children"s needs.

         In many countries around the world May 1 is a holiday. Labour Day, or Workers" Day, is an international holiday that honours working men and women, and the jobs they do.
         During the late 1880s, in many parts of the world, people worked for fourteen to sixteen hours a day in factories, and earned very little money. In the United States and Canada, working people got together to try to make their workplaces better. These groups of people formed unions (团体). The union leaders asked company directors for shorter work days and higher salaries (工资), but many of them refused to accept their ideas.
         On May 1, 1886, men and women in the United States and Canada stopped work and marched through cities and towns to try and force bosses to let them work an eight-hour day. In the city of Chicago, several people died in fights with the police. Over the next few years, people in cities around the world stopped working every May 1 to honour workers everywhere. By the early twentieth century, the first of May was a national holiday in many countries.
         In the United States and Canada, May 1 is not a holiday. North Americans celebrate Labour Day on the first Monday in September. Today in the Unites States, Labour Day is mostly about having fun. People enjoy a long weekend, and often celebrate by having barbecues or picnics with friends or family. In many parts of the Unites States, Labour Day is also the last day of summer vacation, and the students return to school the next day.1.
