Eating habits are different in different countries. The Chinese have a saying “Eating good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.” Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.
Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to take a good rest after a long, hard day of work.
Eating at a restaurant is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they are just having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from the noise of the outside world. If someone is talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant will look at him or her angrily. If some people are taking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant may come out and ask them to be quiet.
参考答案 76. Eating Habits 77. Have/Eat good things 78. Have/Eat a small lunch79. Eat less80. Talk and laugh
The winter vacation and the Spring Festival are on the way! That means delicious food and family get-together.
Other than celebrating the festival, do you have any other plan for the holiday? Here are some examples-maybe they’ll give you an idea!
Zhang Jing, 13, from Chongqing
“My holiday plan is ambitious: writing my first novel. I want to write about 10,000 words! It will be a fantasy(魔幻)story like the Harry Potter books, but the characters in my story will be four lovely girls. They live ordinary lives but…”
Yang Yong, 14, from Shanghai
“I’ll spent most of the winter vacation taking extra classes. I’ll try to improve my Chinese composition skills. My dream winter vacation would be to enjoy the Spring Festival the same as everyone else: eating delicious food, visiting relatives and getting lots of gift money!”
Zhou Lihua, 14, from Sichuan
“I’ll have an adventure this winter! My friends and I will take the train to Beijing by ourselves! I’ve been to Beijing many times. But this time, without my parents’ company , the trip should be
different. We may visit some parks in Beijing.”
Liu Hui, 15, from Guangxi
“Bad luck! I have to spend half of the vacation on extra classes. If I had time, I’d travel to Tibet. I want to see the snow, the blue sky and animals there. It should be easy because we now have the Qinghai-Tibet railway. I could get on the train in Liuzhou.”

This is an egg. This is a ring. Can you get the ring inside the egg? Don’t break the egg! But Liu Qian
can do it. Liu Qian is a magician(魔术师) from Taiwan. For the CCTV Spring Festival Gala he performed two magic shows. They were very successful. Now everyone is mad about magic. We all want to know how to play a trick(戏法).
Liu Qian didn’t go any magic schools. He learned by himself. He worked hard at it. Now he is a great magician.
Liu Qian was born in 1976. When Liu was seven, he saw a coin trick in a big store. At that moment Liu decided to learn magic. He practiced hard to improve his skills. Then one day he was able to put on a show for his class.
“I saw the surprise on everyone’s face. It was cool,” he said.
Liu Qian still practices hard today. He may spend three years working on a new show.
Now many young people are in love with magic after Liu Qian’s two shows for the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. They’re studying how Liu Qian’s tricks work.

In the king’s kitchen there were two bowls. One was made of pottery(陶器) and the other was made of metal. The metal bowl thought he was better than the pottery bowl. “Can you knock against me, Pottery bowl?” he said.
“I can’t, Brother metal bowl,” came the modest(谦虚的) answer. “We are made to hold things, not to knock against each other. I am no worse than you at holding things, Besides…”
“How can you compare yourself to me! You will be broken, but I will last forever.”
The pottery bowl said no more.
Time went on and the palace with the two bowls was buried underground for centuries.
One day some people discovered the pottery bowl. They picked it up and cleaned it. It looked as good as it had in the king’s kitchen. “What a beautiful bowl,” one man said. “Take care not to break it. It’s an expensive old thing from ancient times.”
The people then found the metal bowl. There was nothing left except some rusty(生锈的)

1.Whom did you go with/

综合填空是在全面掌握所学词汇的拼写和用法的同时，运用初中所学的语法和语言点知识，加入对短文的理解来完成的。
例题解析：
Traveling to all countries of the world gets easier and easier, but how well do we know and u__1__ each other? Here is a simple test. Imagine you will hold a m__2__ at four o’clock, what time should you expect your f__3__ business friends to come? If they are Germans, they will arrive on time. If they are American, they’ll probably be fifteen minutes e__4__. If they are British, they’ll be fifteen minutes late.
The British seemed to think since the English l__5__ was widely used in the world, what
they did was certain to be widely understood. Very soon they found they were completely w__6__. For example, the British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss business matters with a drink d__7__ the meal; the Japanese prefer not to work while eating. Lunch is a t__8__ for them to relax and get to know each other, and they don’t drink at lunch. The Germans like to talk about
business b__9__ dinner; the French like to eat f__10__ and talk afterwards. They have to be well fed and watered before they discuss anything.
1.understand。通过and可以判断出1和know为并列谓语动词，each other是1的宾语，再根据短文内容可确定。
2.meeting。不定冠词后确定2填名词，根据下文谈论不同国家人对“准时”和“做事的方式”来确定。hold a meeting是主持会议的意思。
3.foreign。根据expect sb. to do sth.判断出your f__3__ business friends为一个整体，相当于sb.，再仔细分析3为形容词修饰friends，这个形容词就由提到下面的几个国家来确定。
4.early。与下一句they’ll be fifteen minutes late.结构一样但意思相反，是late的反义词。
5.language。从句的主语，通过use和understand确定。
6.wrong。系表结构，系动词后，还被副词completely修饰。根据下面不同国家不同习惯，确定这个形容词的意思。
7.during。7的位置在句子的最后，the meal前，就可判断出是介词短语作状语，理解根据句意表吃饭的整个期间。
8.time。系表结构，表语是名词(由冠词a)决定。那就可根据句意判断lunch的意思。
9.before。和第7题的判断方法一样，但考虑的方式必须是他们做时间一定与Japan不同。
10.first。eat f__10__ and talk afterwards的并列关系，可确定10与afterwards的用法相同，是副词修饰其前的行为动词，根据句意可判断出是afterwards的相反词。
