It’s true that every country has its custom.
We all know that in America if people are pleased with you,they will give you a sign “OK”. But maybe you don‘t know this sign is considered to be rude in Brazil.
In Poland, guests usually choose flowers as presents for hostesses(女主人). Remember the number must be an odd(奇数)one. And the hostess doesn’t hope that you remove the cover of the bunch(束)of flowers. You must be more careful when you give red roses to a woman because the red rose means love.
In China we often hear people say that “nodding” means agreement(同意)。 And “shaking the head” means disagreement. But in Bulgaria they mean the opposite.
We really need to pay more attention to the differences in customs. What‘s more, we should learn more about them in order to avoid embarrassment (尴尬)。 Do remember: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.

As we all know, every country has its own special festival. In China, Qingming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day, is a traditional festival. It usually falls on the 4th or 5th day in April. On that day, Chinese pay respects to their ancestors and the dead. People in different parts of the country enjoy different foods on the day because of local customs(风俗).
Here are some traditional foods people eat on the special day.
1Qingtuan
Qingtuan is widely eaten in China's Jiangnan Area-the southern part of the Yangtze River-around Qingming Festival. The seasonal food is usually made from glutinous rice(糯米) mixed with pounded mugwort-an eatable wild herb thought to prevent insect bites.
2Sanzi
In both northern and southern China, it is an age-old tradition to eat sanzi, or fried dough twists, on Tomb-Sweeping Day. However, sanzi in North and South China are different in size and material. Northern people prefer larger ones made from wheat, while people in the South enjoy smaller ones made from rice.
3 Thin Pancakes
Thin pancakes are a popular food for people in Xiamen in Fujian Province on Tomb-Sweeping Day. To make it tastier, they usually add dried seaweed, omelet (! 'R), vegetables and chili sauce to the pancakes.
4Spring Onion and Omelet
In Qingdao in Shandong Province, people eat spring onion and omelet on the day. They believe a mix of the two helps improve eyesight and makes eyes brighter. In ancient times, pupils often sent eggs to their teachers to show respect on the day.
5 Steamed Rice with Leaf Mustard(盖菜)
In many places in Fujian Province, people thought eating steamed rice with leaf mustard on Tomb-Sweeping Day could help prevent skin diseases for the whole year.
Besides the above special foods in different places, people in Shanxi Province often eat a kind of steamed bun named after Jie Zitui. Therefore, Chinese love to eat different kinds of foods to celebrate different festivals. Maybe that is a common way for people all over the world to celebrate special festivals.
1.When is Tomb-Sweeping Day?
2.Where is Qingtuan widely eaten in China around Qingming Festival?
3.How are sanzi in North and South China different?
4.Why do people eat steamed rice with leaf mustard on Tomb-Sweeping Day?
5.What is the main idea of the passage?

Almost every kid in this country has ever eaten Hershey chocolate. But do you know that the Hershey chocolate factory is more than one hundred years old? And do you know that the father of Hershey Chocolate, Milton Hershey, had many failures in business before he started his famous company?
Milton Hershey grew up in Pennsylvania. Before he became interested in making chocolate, he worked as a printer for a small newspaper at first, and then decided that printing was not the right job for him.
Then he worked at a candy factory in Lancaster. After working a few years there, he decided to open his own little candy business near Philadelphia. His first business failed because it was not making money. After that, he went to Denver to learn how to make caramels(焦糖). He took his new skills back to New York and worked selling candies on the street. But his second business also failed.
Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to Pennsylvania where he grew up. He then experimented with all sorts of different candies and chocolate. By 1893 he was selling a million dollars worth of caramel candy each year. Since his chocolate-flavored(巧克力味的) caramels were the best selling, he decided to make chocolate himself.
By experimenting, Milton Hershey discovered how to make delicious chocolate. The area where he lived had a large and easy supply of milk and sugar, which helped him succeed in his chocolate business. In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and a town to go with it.
Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built. And if you ever visit, you can smell delicious chocolate smells just driving through the town.
The factory is not so hard to find, Just travel down Cocoa Avenue until you get to East Chocolate Avenue. Turn right at the traffic lights and just follow your nose.
1.Who is the father of Hershey Chocolate?
2.Where did he grow up?
3.Why did he go to Denver?
4.Why did he decide to make chocolate himself?
5.Is the town of Hershey still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built?

As we all know, December 5 is the International (国际) Volunteering Day. Our country now has 450,000 volunteers. They have provided more than 4.5 billion (亿) hours of volunteer work. Someone says that for students, this kind of work isn’t meaningful and wastes time. But I think that we can get much from it.
First of all, volunteering is a good way to open our eyes. We may do something we never do and meet different kinds of people. We can talk with them and get their good ideas.
Secondly, volunteers especially (尤其) students can learn much from practice. As students, we are interested in books and learn some knowledge (知识) from it. After we become a volunteer, we will have the chance to put our knowledge into practice.
Thirdly, volunteering is good for our future job. That is to say, when we take part in other jobs without paying, we can get some experience (经验) and know how to solve some problems we never met before.
All in all, volunteering is a form of practice and experience. We shouldn’t say no to it.
根据短文内容,判断句子正误。正确的用“A”表示,不正确的用“B”表示。
1.The International Volunteering Day is on December 6 every year.
