| | 阅读理解。 | My name is Jack. When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong, China, we
brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young
people should always respect the elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United
States.
I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got
their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great
displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about
how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description"old". I then walked back to the table
and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by
cultural differences, so they laughed and were" no longer angry.
In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and
people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older
people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.
However, in the United States, people think"growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is
going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from
growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on make-up, hoping to look younger. When I told
the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had
failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn"t want to hear.
After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don"t respect them any more; I
still respect them, but now I don"t show my feelings through words. | | 1. Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _____. | A. the manager asked him to do so

B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.

B. Old people, old customs.
C. Different restaurants, different services.
D. Differences between old and young. | | 阅读理解。 |   | Who hasn"t enjoyed eating peanuts? Did you know that although peanuts look like nuts and taste like nuts,
they aren"t nuts at all? They belong to the pea family, so they are called peanuts.
The peanut grows flowers above ground, but its "fruit" grows underground. It grows in more countries
than most other "nuts". The peanut is a native South American plant. Scientists believe that it grew wild in Brazil
long ago. They think that for several thousand years the early peoples of South America made it a part of their
diet. These peoples were nomads who moved on when a natural food could no longer be found in one area.
Along the way they probably let fall some peanuts, which got into the ground and grew. This is believed to be
the way the plant reached the place where the Incas (印加人) lived. The Incas, from about 1100 to 1532,
thought highly of peanuts.
The peanuts were eaten in several forms and used as sacrificial offerings (祭品) to. the Incan Sun God.
Later in the 16th century, European soldiers had brought peanuts to other parts of the world, including North
America, Africa, Asia, Europe, and Pacific Islands.
Although peanuts were found native in South America, they are now grown in almost every country that
has warm weather. India produces the most peanuts. China"s production is next, followed by the United States.
The peanut is special in more ways than one. It can be eaten raw, boiled, roasted, or fried. Hundreds of
widely different products have been made from it. Carver, an American scientist, set himself the task of
discovering new uses for eating peanuts and many other products.
Peanuts are very highly nutritious and are also high in protein (蛋白质). Americans use about seven-tenths
of their protein in the form of meat. In India, where the poor can"t pay for meat or milk, peanut meal and peanut milk have been produced. These have been a great help to the poor.
New products are continually being made from peanuts, among them peanut cheese and a powder that
becomes peanut butter when water is added. The fact is that peanuts are so healthy that they are used by
astronauts. The unusual nut that isn"t a nut is one of nature"s most amazing gifts. | | 1. What is the main idea of Paragraph (段落) Two? | A. The countries growing peanuts.
