初三英语有关文化的阅读短文

❶ 关于中西方文化的初中英语阅读理解练习题及答案

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving in restaurants is often large; too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.

A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.

C. American people never sit with people they don’t know.

这是一篇讲美国人的用餐习俗的阅读。
As you know different countries have different customs. Also there are many gestures showing many meanings in many countries. Here are a few examples of gestures. A fisherman in Britain will show the size of a fish he has caught by holding his two hands, palms(手掌) facing each other, the right distance apart in front of him. But the one from certain part of Africa will measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand. In Britain the gesture to show the number “one” is made by holding up the index finger (the second finger), but in Switzerland it is the thumb—the first finger which is held up. Some people point at objects with finger, others by sticking out the lips. The gesture for “come here” is made in Britain with the index finger, which is held, pointing upwards, at eye level and bent towards the body; in Egypt the hand is held at arm’s length, palm downwards, and the fingers are then bent. The difference between the movements is very important, and the meanings of the same gestures maybe opposite in different countries. It may bring trouble to those not well known with it.
1. This passage is mainly about _______.
A. different people in different countries B. how to understand the gestures in Britain
C. the different gestures D. how to show a gesture in Egypt
2Sometimes difference between the movements in different countries may bring about _______ to you.
A. a good luck B. a new world C. all ill effect D. happiness
3 How will the Africans express if the object’s size is longer than their left arms?
A. Take a string to show it. B. Keep silent.
C. Bring the object to the spot. D. In another way.
4According to the passage we should _______.
A. look before we leap B. pick and choose
C. strike while the iron is hot D. do in Rome as the Romans do

❹ 初三英语短文

Good afternoon, honorable judges, dear teachers & friends.

I'm Lai Senhan from the University of International Business & Economics. Do you know what date is it today? Today is the Olympic Date. I'm so glad to stand here today to share my idea about Beijing Olympic Games together with you all. The title of my speech is: what can we do for Beijing Olympic Games?

First of all, let me tell you a story that happened 2 years ago. At the end of August, 2004, when I decided to come to Beijing for study, my friends hel* * **rewell Party for me. They said: after your graation, you should look for a job in Beijing, and then in 2008, we shall go to visit you ring the Olympic Games. I laughed and answered: OK, no problem!

Time flied and 2 years passed. Now I am a graate. My teachers and classmates always ask me: what's your plan after your graation? Go back home, stay in Beijing, or go to some other places? And I always answer: I will stay in Beijing. I make this decision not because of my promise to my friends 2 years ago, but because: I've fallen in love with Beijing! I'm eager to welcome the coming Olympic Games together with my fellow countrymen, and I wish I could do something for the Olympics & for the city.

As we know, Beijing will host the 29th Summer Olympic Games in 2008. As a Chinese, I think many people are thinking: what we can do for Beijing Olympic Games. Most of us are not athletes, we cannot take part in competitions directly; we are not officials either, we don't need to do the preparatory work. We are only ordinary people, what we can do!

there are still so many things we can do! For example, for me, I am a graate majoring Business English. As far as I am concerned, I will keep on learning English hard, and apply for being a volunteer. I will use English to serve the Games together with other volunteers. And also, as a businessman at that time, I will avail myself of the GREat commercial opportunities that the Olympics brings to us, make more efforts to offer my contribution to the growth of our national economy.

And for all of us, with the goal to host a "GREen Olympics", we shall plant more trees, grass & flowers. Don't waste water. In order to alleviate the problems of air pollution & traffic congestions, we shall take buses & subways more. With the goal to host a "People's Olympics", and in order to make our Olympics more attractive and to make our Beijing more beautiful, we shall help everyone we meet who needs help, we shall abide by traffic rules, don't smoke in public and no spitting. The most important way for our Chinese to support our Beijing Olympic Games, in my opinion, is to work hard on our ties.

下午好，尊敬的法官，亲爱的老师与朋友。

我赖senhan从大学国际商务与经济学。你知道日期是今天？今天是奥运会的日期。我很高兴站在这里分享我的想法是对北京奥运会和你一起所有。演辞的题目是：我们能做些什么，为北京奥运会吗？

首先，让我告诉你一个故事发生在2年前。截至八月底， 2004年，当我决定来北京学习，我的朋友们的hel * ** rewell党话。他们说：以后你毕业时，你应该找一份工作，在北京，然后在2008年，我们会去看望大家，在申办2008年奥运会。我笑着回答说：好，没问题！

飞时间和2年通过。现在我是一个研究生。我的老师和同学经常问我：你怎么计划后，你毕业？回家，留在北京，或去其他一些地方？我总是这样回答：我会留在北京。我作出这个决定并不是因为我的诺言，我的朋友2年前，但因为：我已经爱上北京！我渴望迎接未来奥运会连同我的同胞们，我想我可以做一些为奥运会＆为市。

我们知道，北京将主办第29届夏季奥运会于2008年。作为一个中国人，我想很多人的想法：我们所能做的北京奥运会。我们多数人都没有运动员，我们不能参加比赛，直接;我们不是官员要么，我们不需要做准备工作。我们只是普通人，我们能做！

还有这么多事情可以做！举例来说，对于我来说，我是一个毕业主修商务英语。至于我本人而言，我会继续学习英语难，申请作为志愿人员。我会用英语服务的游戏连同其他志愿者。同时，作为一名商人，在这个时候，我会用自己的伟大的商业机会，奥运带给我们更加努力致以增长的贡献率为我国国民经济的。

并为我们所有，其目的主办的"绿色奥运" ，我们应更多植物树木，草地与鲜花。不要浪费水。为了缓解问题，空气污染及交通挤塞情况，我们会采取巴士＆隧道多。同目标，以举办"人文奥运" ，以使我们的奥运会更有吸引力，使北京变得更加美丽，我们将帮助我们每个人满足需求的帮助，我们会遵守交通规则，不烟雾在公众并没有随地吐痰。最重要的方式为我们中国人来支持我们的北京奥运会，我认为这是努力工作的职责。
