The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. One day, the rich man got out of his car and said to the poor man, "Excuse me. I want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning." " Sir," said the poor man, " I am a failure. I have no money , no family, no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I'll sleep in that hotel." The rich man said , " Tonight your dream will come true. I'll pay for the best room in that hotel for you a whole month." A few days after, the rich man went into the poor man's room to ask him how he was enjoying himself. To his surprise, he found that the man had moved out of the hotel back to his bench. When the rich man asked why, he said, " You see, when I'm sleeping on my bench, I dreamed I am there, in the big hotel. It's a wonderful dream. But when I was there， I dreamed I was back to this cold bench. It was a terrible dream, and I couldn't get any sleep at all." 5.The poor man lived in ______ before he met the rich man.

One of the rules is that young people should always respect 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 makeup, hoping to look young. 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. By Jack 9.Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______. A. the manager asked him to do so B. he respected the elderly C. the couple wanted him to do so D. he wanted more pay 10.When Jack called the couple “elderly”, they became _______. A. nervous B. satisfied C. unhappy D. excited 11.After this experience, Jack _______. A. lost his job in the restaurant B. made friends with the couple C. no longer respected the elderly D. changed his way with older people 12.Which of the following is TRUE? A. From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture. B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience. C. The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple. D. The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got. D How can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it." Certainly not! You don't have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors. I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn't. Remember that you get what you pay. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don't expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively, you also have to act positively. If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life. 13.The writer's attitude towards destiny is that___. A. we can change it B. we can't depend on ourselves C. we must accept it D. we have to suffer it 14.According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong? A. Regard it as a little failure. B. Get your hands off your phone. C. Sit around and wait for luck. D. Do something to solve the problem. 15.The underlined word "positively" in the passage means___. A.不礼貌地 B.消极地 C.积极地 D.礼貌地 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 Americans’ Weekends What do American families usually do on weekends? __ 16 __.
