第三节完形填空（本节共10小题；每小题1分，共10分）
A small talk is a good way to kill time and make friends. If you travel to other countries, do you know what to say to start a small 51 with local people?
In Britain, the best topic is the weather. Britain 52 changes quite often. It’s also a safe topic. You can start a small talk simply by 53 “It’s a lovely day today, isn’t it?”
Besides the weather, it’s good to talk about gardens with English people. For example, 54 could say, “Those roses look really beautiful, don't they?” English people love their pets. So it’s also nice to begin with “What a lovely 55 ! What is its name?”
In America, people like to 56 sports, such as American football and basketball. They also talk about clothes by saying “ It’s a nice shirt! Where did you get it?” The clothes are a 57 topic there, too.
Of course, there are also a lot of topics to avoid during a small talk in Western countries.
Don't ask people “How old are you?”Age is usually 58 , especially for women.
59 ask “How much money do you make?”It makes people uncomfortable. Don't ask strangers whether they have a girlfriend 60 boyfriend. Politics or religion is not a good topic for two people have just met, either.

第三部分阅读理解（共三节，满分30分）
第一节选择（本节共15小题；每小题1分，共15分）
阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。
A
My name is Jack. When my family moved to America, we brought not only our luggage, but also our rules, customs and culture in China. One of the rules is that young people should always respect the elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment( 尴尬) in the United States.
I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One day, 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, she looked very unhappy. My manager gave me a long lecture about how Americans dislike the word “old”. I then walked back and apologized to the lady.
In my hometown 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, “old” means that a person is going to retire(退休). Here many people try to keep themselves from growing old by doing exercises. 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 you
ng.
After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t res pect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.

A. People there are proud of being old.
B. People there dislike being called “old”.
C. No people there reach the age of seventy or eighty.
D. Young people there show little respect to the older.
63. What did Jack do after this experience?
A. He made friends with the couple.
B. He lost his job in the restaurant.
C. He no longer respected the elderly.
D. He changed his way with older people.
64. We can know from the passage that __________.
A. the couple disliked fast service at all.
B. the manager apologized to the couple.
C. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words.
D. Jack knew more about American culture than before.
