三、阅读理解（共5小题; 每小题2分，共10分）

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!”

That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too. You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.

All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet.

There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!
    Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show.

If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!

(    ) 1. By touching things _______________.              

A. you will have a strange feeling    B. you will learn how to reach out your hand
        C. you can learn more about them    D. you can tell what colors they really are
(    ) 2. Which of the following can be the best title of the story?
        A. Touching by Feeling                     B. To See Better—Feel 
        C. To See or to Feel                     D. Ways of Feeling
(    ) 3. Which of the following parts can tell you the difference between two coins in your pocket?
         A. Your fingers.   B. Your eyes.  C. Your skin.   D. Your back.
(    ) 4. What can’t your skin feel?
         A. Sounds.                B. Coins.         C. Water.                                     D. Darkness. 
(    ) 5. Which of the following is NOT true?
         A. Touching is helping us to see better.     B. Our skins may help us enjoy music.
         C. Visitors can’t feel the things on show in any museums.  D. People don’t have to learn to feel.

六、阅读与回答问题（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）

Wang Fei，a Chinese student，and Mary，an American student studying Chinese in China，were in a supermarket．They saw a young man walking down the stairs．In his hurry，he missed the last two steps and fell onto the ground．He tried to stand up while people around him laughed. Luckily, he seemed to be OK.               

Mary found Wang Fei smiling a little and was not happy about it．“Tell me，Fei，how could people laugh when someone fell like that? Why didn’t they go up and ask him if he was hurt?’’

Wang Fei said，“Because they knew he wasn’t hurt too much．”

“But I still don’t understand．A fall is a fall．In my culture．people would never laugh!”

This is an example．The Chinese and the westerner will think and act differently when seeing such a thing．Chinese people are used to laughing or smiling．Very often the person who is in embarrassing（困窘的）situation would also laugh or smile to get out of it．However，if someone gets hurt seriously，it will not be a laughing matter any more．People will help him or her instead．

But，in that case，a westerner will rush over and help the person get up．If a westerner falls，he or she，like a Chinese person，may try to make a joke if he or she is not hurt．If two close friends are walking together，and one falls but clearly isn't hurt，a common joke is to say “Have a nice trip”．

So different people have different habits and different countries have different cultures．

1．Where is Mary from?    __________________________________________________________

2．Why didn't people go up and ask the young man if he was hurt?

   __________________________________________________________

   __________________________________________________________

4．What is a westerner likely to do when he or she sees someone fall down?

   __________________________________________________________

5．What might Mary say to Wang Fei if he fell but clearly was not hurt?

   __________________________________________________________
