用括号里所给动词的适当形式填空。
Something that I learnt from both my parents was the importance of having respect (尊重) for other people. I remember one day when we 1 (travel) on a bus and I sat down while other people were standing. My mother shouted at me “Get up immediately! You have young legs and you don’t need 2 (sit) down.” At the time I felt embarrassed about being told off in public, but now I understand. I think children nowadays 3 (lose) that respect and it really makes me angry if I see children sitting down while older people 4 (stand).
One area where we had a lot of rules 5 (be) table manners. For example, we weren’t allowed to start our meal until the oldest person had started. We had to say “thank you” when our food 6 (serve), and eat everything on our plates before we could leave the table. We couldn’t make any noise when eating. Worse than that, we were only allowed to have sweets at the weekend, as a special treat if we had been good.
Although my upbringing (养育) was perhaps a bit strict compared with modern children, I’m very thankful to my parents for 7 (give) me a clear direction in life. Even though sometimes I was punished, I think it has made me a better person. In my view, children need clear rules, but more than that they need to learn how to get on with other people and 8 (realize) they are not the center of the world.

QUESTION:
I’m outgoing and I’m a bit loud when chatting with my friends. But my parents think this is 19 (polite). They say girls shouldn’t behave like this. What do you think
Cindy
ANSWERS:
There is an old-fashioned expression in English: “Children should 20 (see) and not heard”. As members of an older generation(一代人), your parents have probably heard something 21 this before. And unfortunately, attitudes like this do tend to focus more on how girls should behave.
But you and I know that these attitudes are out of date. We 22 (be) in a new era(时代) already. Boys can be as gentle as they like and girls are free to be loud sometimes. You shouldn’t be afraid of to be 23 (you).
That being said, if you are being too loud 24 public, your parents might be right.
Mike
I think talking loudly has nothing to do with your gender(性别). It has 25 (much) to do with your character. You must be a very outgoing person. I’m a boy, 26 I’m still shy even with my friends.
People 27 can liven up the atmosphere(活跃气氛) are good. So I think you don’t need to change. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the setting. For example, talking loudly with friends in buses or 28 (library) is not polite.
Wang Hui
A gift is necessary when one is invited to visit friends in China. After greetings, the gift should 29 (pass) to the host at once.
Remember that usually Chinese people will not open the gift in front of the person 30 gives it. To show respect (尊敬), it may be necessary 31 (explain) what the gift is. Bringing some tonics (补品) to the elders in the family is a good idea. You can also prepare some small gifts for the partner or kids of the host. The host usually makes full 32 (prepare) by carefully tidying up the house and cooking a lot of delicious dishes. 33 the meal is well prepared, the host may say to the guest politely, “Please excuse me for my poor treat.” 34 a guest, you should make the host believe that there is plenty to eat by admiring the food.
While eating, the elders will use chopsticks to pick up food for guests as a 35 (traditional) and ask them to eat more. You should accept their goodwill readily. But nowadays, the younger people do the traditional way 36 (little).
After dinner, tea and fruit are usually served. When the guests want to leave, the host may still politely ask them to stay. They don’t have to take it 37 (serious) and they can try to find a good time to leave. This doesn’t mean that 38 (leave) early is always a good idea as the host may feel that the guests are not satisfied with the treat. Finding the right time to leave depends on the situation.
Where I'm from, were pretty relaxed about time. We don't like to rush around, so we 39 （mind）if people are a little late sometimes, If you tell a friend you're going to their house for dinner, it's OK if you arrive a bit late. We 40 （real） enjoy our time slowly, We 41 （valuable）the time we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives. We often just drop by our friends' homes if we have time. 42 （besides）, we don't usually have to make plans to meet our friends. We often just walk around the town center, seeing as many of our friends as we can！
In Switzerland, it's very important 43 （is） on time. We're the capital of clocks and watches, after all! If someone invites you to meet him or her at noon, then you 44 （expect） to be there at noon. If you're even 15 minutes late. 45 （you） friend may get mad. So I make an 46 （effort） to be on time when I meet my friends. I always leave the house early to avoid heavy traffic because I think it's impolite to keep others 47 （wait）. Also, we never visit a friend's house without calling 48 （one）. We almost always make plans to see friends. We usually plan to do something interesting, or go somewhere together.

Customs play an important role in festivals, 56 sometimes they can change over time.

Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution.
With the holidays coming up, lots of people will have parties. Want to make sure you're a perfect host or guest Now it's a good time to brush up on your party manners.
When inviting guests to your party, send 59 (invite) to their homes instead of 60 (pass) them out at school. This way, you won't hurt the feelings of classmates you don't invite.

After the party, be sure to send 63 hand written thank you card to each guest, telling them 64 much you appreciate their gifts. When you receive an invitation to a party, be sure to let the host know whether you can come. Arrive 65 time. Bring a gift to a birthday party. If it's a holiday party, ask the host if there's anything you can bring. Adults often bring a dessert or a bottle of wine to a party, even when the host 66 (tell) them that he or she doesn't need 67 (something). Young people don't have to do this, but it's always polite to ask. Be 68 (friend) to the other guests. Remember to say "Please" and "Thank you"! When you leave, thank the host for the party.
In Switzerland, it’s very important 69 (be) on time. We’re the capital of clocks and 70 (watch), after all! If someone 71 (invite) you to meet him or her at noon, then you’re expected to be there at noon. If you’re even 15 minutes late, your friend may 72 (get) mad. So I make 73 (a) effort to be on time in order that I 74 (not let) my friend down. I always leave the house early to avoid heavy traffic because I think it’s impolite to keep others 75 (wait).

English language isn’t always changing. English words don't stay 79 same. New words are needed for new ideas and new inventions. Different words come into use, or old words are used 80 a new way.
English can be changed 81 borrowing words from other languages. The word “tomato” was 82 (borrow) from Mexico and “tea” came from China and so on. Now new space and science words are being borrowed from other countries, too.
New words can be formed by 83 (add) two words together. “Countryside” and “earthquake” are made up of two 84 (part).
Sometimes new words are 85 (short) forms of old words. The word “photo” 86 (make) from “photograph” by cutting off the end of the longer word. “Plane” was made by cutting off the front part of “airplane”.
The names 87 people and products can become new words, too.Our “sandwich” was named after a man called Sandwich. And “sellotape”（透明胶带）was a name given by the company that 88 (one) made the product.
Should 89 (teenager) be asked to move out when they start working In many Western countries, teenagers 90 (allow) to move out at eighteen or 91 (nine). 92 (they) parents believe that they should be educated 93 (take) care of themselves from 94 young age. This way, when they start working they can manage their own lives. However, in most Asian societies, the family unit is 95 (special) strong. So it is not common 96 teenagers to move out. Chinese parents believe that it is better for children to live with parents 97 can take care of them. But the young should then look after their parents as they get older. That is why many Chinese adults keep 98 (live) with their parents.

Paris is the capital of France. Its subway is also very special. You can enjoy 109 (it) culture when you are in this city. 110 (one) you can see many people reading books in the subway. Whenever they are in the subway or 111 the station, there is always a book in the hand.
The subway station in Paris is not big, but each of 112 (they) has its special facts. Some stations look like ships. Some stations have clothes, caps and 113 (shoe). And every station has a big advertisement picture. But many of them are for 114 (sell) clothes and cosmetics(化妆品).
You can meet some beggars(乞丐) in the subway. But the beggars in the Paris subway 115 (be) also very special. They often play 116 violin or guitar in the train. They don’t feel shy at all. Instead they think it is natural. After playing, they will go around the train and ask you 117 (give) them some money.

Hongbao, usually a red envelope(信封)with some money inside, is a kind of traditional gift in China. It is a way to show love, good 119 (wish) or blessings(祈祷). This tradition 120 (start) more than 2,000 years ago when old people used to give money to their grandchildren for good luck in the coming New Year.
Now something has changed. People prefer to send virtual(虚拟的) hongbao instead 121 the traditional one and it helps people give or receive hongbao more 122 (easy) on the mobile phones. This new form of hongbao has become very popular with the WeChat users. During the Spring Festival, I gave out at 123 (little) 300 yuan by using WeChat and was unable 124 (get) back most of the money I gave. 125 I got the smallest hongbao with 0.01 yuan in it, I still had great fun. No matter how people send hongbao, the meaning behind it is 126 same.
However, some people, especially the young, spend so much time on the virtual hongbao 127 they don't have much time with their family. This also makes 128 (they) tired and it's bad for their health and study. So what do you think of the virtual hongbao
English and Chinese are totally different language. However, some proverbs (谚语) in English seem to have a “twin” in Chinese. Here are three of them.
Double-edged sword (双刃剑). / Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.
The Chinese proverb was 129 (one) used by Confucius. He reminded a ruler that his power was 130 (base) on people who supported him. If the people were dissatisfied, they could easily fight 131 the ruler. Similarly, double-edged sword reminds us that what brings us power can bring us harm, too.
These days, both expressions are used to point out how our tools can 132 help or harm us. It all depends on how we use these tools.
Think before you act. / Think three times, and act after.
Both cultures are 133 /wa z/ enough to include this proverb. It is a good phrase to use when any friend is going to make a big 134 (decide).
Stands head and shoulders above the rest. / A crane standing among a group of chickens.
A crane is a large 135 /b (r)d/ with long legs and a long neck. Just imagine such an animal 136 (stand) among many chickens. The crane will naturally stand out, won’t it
So these two expressions now 137 /r f (r)/ to someone who stands out from the rest. You may use them to describe 138 talented artist, an excellent job candidate, and so on.

根据“if you tell a friend you're going to their house for dinner, it's OK if you arrive a bit late.”，可知我们不介意别人有时迟到一点，所以此句应为否定句；又因为全文是用一般现在时，所以该句用一般现在时的否定形式，主语为we ，否定句加don’t，后跟动词原形，故填don’t mind。
40．句意：我们真地是慢慢地享受我们的时间。
提示词real真正的，是形容词，在句中要修饰动词enjoy，所以应用副词形式，real的副词为really，故填really。
41．句意：我们珍惜与家人和朋友在日常生活中度过的时光。
分析句子结构此处缺少谓语动词，valuable有价值的，是形容词，动词形式为value；又因为根据全文可知是一般现在时，主语为we，所以谓语动词要用动词原形，故填value。
42．句意：此外，我们通常不必计划去见我们的朋友。
besides 表示“除此之外”时，一般放在句首，首字母大写，并用逗号和后面句子隔开，故填Besides。
43．句意：在瑞士，准时是非常重要的。
此句是句型It’s+ adj.+to do sth.，意为“做某事是……”，提示词is的原形是be，根据句意，故填to be。
44．句意：如果有人邀请你中午见他或她，那么你就被期望在中午到那里。
根据句意此处是指“你被期望在中午到那里”，be expected to do sth.(某人)被期望做某事，主语为you，且为一般现在时，所以be动词用are，故填are expected。
45．句意：你的朋友可能会发疯。
此空要修饰名词friend，所以应用形容词性物主代词，you的形容词性物主代词为your，故填your。
46．句意：所以当我见到我的朋友时，我努力做到准时。
短语make an effort to do sth.意为“努力做某事”，故填effort。
47．句意：我总是早早离开家以避免交通拥挤，因为我认为让别人一直等是不礼貌的。
根据句意此处指“让别人一直等”，keep sb. doing意为“让某人一直做某事”，所以应为keep others waiting，故填waiting。
48．句意：而且，我们从来不会不先打电话就去拜访朋友的家。
根据句意此处指“不会不先打电话就去拜访朋友的家”，one的序数词first，意为“首先”，故填first。

53．句意：在古代埃及，收获的节日是在春天庆祝的。根据“In ancient Egypt”可知该句应用一般过去时。主语the harvest festival与动词celebrate存在逻辑上的被动关系，因此句子应有一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为：was/were+过去分词。主语the harvest festival为单数名词，be动词用was。动词celebrate的过去分词为celebrated。故填was celebrated。
54．句意：现在，在一些欧洲国家，人们通过放置鲜花和水果，把教堂和市政厅装饰得比平时更好看，然后大家聚在一起共享晚餐。由“than”可知句子应用比较级，感官动词look后接形容词作表语，因此good的比较级为better。故填better。

82．句意：“西红柿”这个词是从墨西哥借来的，“茶”这个单词则来自中国。主语“The word”和谓语动词borrow之间是被动关系，因此使用被动语态be done的形式，空格处应用其过去分词形式borrowed，故填borrowed。
83．句意：新单词可以由两个词相加而成。add“加”，动词，by是介词，后接动词时使用其动名词形式，故填adding。
