It must have been around nine o’clock when I drove back home from work because it was already dark． As I came near to the gates I turned off the head lights of the car so as to prevent the beam from swinging (擺動) through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me． But I needn’t have done so． I noticed that his light was still on, so he was awake anyway—unless he had fallen asleep while reading． I put the car away and went up the steps．
Then I opened the door quietly and went to Jack’s room． He was in bed awake, but he didn’t even turn towards me．
“What’s up, Jack﹖” I asked．
“For God’s sake, don’t make a noise,” he said．
The way he spoke reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself serious injury．
“Take your shoes off, Neville,” Jack said．
I thought that he must be ill and that I had better give way to him to keep him happy． “There is a snake here,” he explained． “It’s asleep between the sheets． I was lying on my back reading when I saw it．I knew that moving was out of the question． I could not have moved even I’d wanted to．” I realized that he was serious． “I was depending on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home,” Jack went on． “It has not bitten me yet but I dare not do anything to upset it． It might wake up． I’m sick of this,” he said．“I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago．”
There was no time to argue or apologize for being late．I looked at him as encouraging as I could and went to telephone the doctor．
【小題1】When he got home, Neville found that ＿＿＿＿＿．
| A．Jack had fallen asleep while reading | B．Jack had been reading for some time |
| C．Jack’s light was not turned off | D．Jack was ready to answer the doctor |
| A．impossible | B．no problem | C．no doubt | D．without difficulty |
| A．Neville and Jack lived in the same house． |
| B．Neville thought that Jack had fallen ill． |
| C．Neville really believed that Jack was not making a joke． |
| D．Neville refused to argue or to make an apology for being late． |
| A．asked Neville to take off his shoes |
| B．made a gesture to show the presence of the snake |
| C．was afraid to upset the snake sleeping between the sheets |

In many English homes four meals are served; they are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. These are the meals that are served in the homes of people who are well to do.
Breakfast may be served any time for seven to nine. It consist of porridge, bacon and eggs (boiled or fried), butter toast or bread-and-butter with marmalade (酸果醬). Instead of bacon and eggs, fish may be served. Either tea or coffee is drunk at breakfast.
Lunch comes at about one o’clock. It generally consists of cold meat (left over from yesterday’s dinner), potatoes, and salad. After that there is bread or biscuits and cheese. Most people drink water at lunchtime; some drink beer or wine. It is not the custom to drink the spirits (烈性酒) like whisky or brandy even wealthy homes in the middle of the day.
Afternoon tea, taken between four and five, is the most informal meal of the day. If you are a friend of the family you may drop in for tea without an invitation or telling them that you are coming. Each person has a cup and saucer, a spoon and a small plate for bread-and-butter and cake. By the way, do not help yourself to cake first; bread-and-butter first, and then cake if there is any. Another piece of advice: do not put more than one piece of bread or cake on your plate at the same time.
Dinner is the most substantial (豐盛的) meal of the day and is a very formal meal. Many people even wear special clothes for dinner, so if you are asked out of dinner you must find out whether you are expected to wear a dinner suit; for you would feel very embarrassed if, when you go there, you were the only person in ordinary clothes. Dinner is generally served at about half past seven. All the members of the family sit down together and are on their best behavior. The head of the family sits at one end of the table; his wife sits at the other. If there is a guest, he generally sits in the place of honor, which is at the right of lady of the house. If there are several guests the most important is asked to sit there. During the meal conservation is carried on, you should try to get into the conversation with the person on your right or left, but you should not try to talk to someone who is a long way from you.

The way we do things round here
Some years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, “Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us. ”That “quite” saddened me. I thought he was saying “we’ re kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.” Then I discovered that in American English “quite” sometimes means “very”, while in British English it means “fairly”.
So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don' t
just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．
Some of these differences may be only on the surface—dress, food and hours of work—while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate（氣候），while getting on with business.
Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality（準時）．If you invite people to a party at 7 o’ clock
your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the
American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word “late” because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.
1.The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______．
A. the American bank didn’ t think much of him
B. the American bank might hire another person
C. it’ s difficult to get used to American culture
D. it’ s easy to misunderstand Americans
2.The word “highlights” in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.
A. encourages B. helps to narrow
C. increases D. draws attention to
3.According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?
A. Ask the native people for help.
B. Understand and accept them.
C. Do things in our own way.
D. Do in-depth research.
4.When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.
A. Italians B. Germans C. Greeks D. the British

Winter in the north is usually very cold and it is important to avoid colder-related injuries such as frostbite(凍傷) and hypothermia(體溫降低)．Frostbite is damage that happens when skin is exposed to extreme cold for too long．It mainly happens on the hands，feet，nose，and ears and some will bring permanent damage．Hypothermia is a serious medical condition caused by serious cold．It happens when the body cannot produce as much heat as it loses．If not treated，it can be deadly．
