听力原文： Thailand has some special customs and habits.

Men end women generally do not touch or show affection in public. However, good friends of the same sex sometimes hold hands. Among the younger generation, it is becoming more common for members of the opposite sex to hold hands.

In social visits, how one sits, walks, or interacts with others depends on the status of each person present. It is customary to remove one's shoes when entering a Buddhist temple or private home. Visitors should avoid stepping on the doorstep because Thais believe that a soul resides in the doorstep of a temple. It is not necessary to take gifts when visiting, but it is not uncommon for guests on extended stays to present their hosts with a gift of appreciation.

In the home, people commonly sit on the floor, but do not stretch their feet out in front of them. Women generally put their legs to the side and behind them, and men sit cross-legged. Men might also put their legs to the side to show special respect to the hosts. Guests may offer compliments on the home or children, but should avoid excessive admiration of any specific object to make the host embarrassed.

(35)

A．Friends of the same sex cannot hold hands in public.

B．Friends of the opposite sex always hold hands in public.

C．Men and women have different attitudes towards holding bands.

D．Young people hold a more open attitude towards holding hands.

听力原文：Ladies and Gentlemen,

Now we have come to the most exciting and most impressive part of this island trip, The Elephant Walk. If you are interested, you may choose to ride an elephant to have a tour around. All the elephants here are professionally trained for the purpose. Don't worry if you feel it difficult to climb onto such a gigantic animal; our assistants will be there to help you. Generally speaking, there are four ways to climb onto an elephant. The first is the easiest for the passenger and the most uncomfortable for the elephant. With a command of 'Baitho!' , the elephant kneels. You climb up to the seat by stepping on the top of the front part of either leg, holding onto the ear, and pulling yourself up. The second way is more difficult. Upon the command of 'Utha! Utha!', the elephant lifts either of its front legs and, holding onto the ear, you step onto the leg and are raised up as in a lift. The third is over the backside. The elephant lowers one of its back legs and you simply catch hold of the tail. The fourth, the expert's way, is by the trunk. It looks so elegant and simple. As the trunk is lowered to the ground, you place your foot in the middle and then hold onto both ears. The result is that you are lifted up and over and onto the elephant's back.

According to the man, why shouldn't people be worried about climbing onto an elephant？

A．Because elephants are mild animals.

B．Because elephants are trained to carry goods.

C．Because people have designed safe ways for the climbing.

D．Because people will be aided by professional assistants.

important way of reading a large, big-city newspaper is to put it into different sections. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, ads？ Does your paper have other sections？

News stories give facts, not the reporter's opinions. Some newspaper editorials (社论) come out with the writer's name, but many newspapers only carry editorials without putting the writers' names on.

You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to leave out unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the leading paragraph (the first paragraph) of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages.

Most of all, the more you know about news of the present time, the more you will understand what is in the newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on following days. So, an important way to read newspapers is reading one frequently.
