I was born in England, to English parents. When I was two years old my dad got a new job in Poland. Since then I have lived in four other countries around the world. Although I have a British passport,I sometimes don&39;t feel very English at all!
One of the best things about moving around a lot when 1 was younger experiencing many diverse cultures and countries. I was able to try different foods, learn different languages, experience different traditions and meet people from different backgrounds. I am also lucky to have friends all over the world that 1 keep in regular contact with.
However, it wasn&39;t always easy. It often felt like I had only just settled in to the new school city and culture before my parents told me we were moving again. Leaving my friends behind was damaging as a child. I have lost touch with many people 1 was very close to because one of us moved country. It was also very disorientating to have an English passport, but not feel very English at all. Because 1 had no access to English culture, returning 4home, often felt like visiting a foreign country. Happily, now l feel more at home in England—although the question, “where are you from?” still confuses me!

Passage Two
The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English "You speak very good English." But the student answered, "No, no. My English is very poor." The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, "Yes indeed, you speak English very well." But the Chinese student still kept saying "No". In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. What's wrong with the student's answer? It is because he did not accept a compliment(赞美的话)as the English people do. He should have said "Thank you" instead of "No". He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said "Thank you", that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say "Thank you". If someone says to a Woman "You look so beautiful with the new clothes on", she should be very happy and answer "Thank you". In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are modest and say "No, I'm afraid I can't do it well", then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say "No", you will certainly be looked down upon by others. When asking for a job, if one says something like "Let me have a try on the job" instead of "Yes, I can certainly do it," he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.
40. Why was the American surprised at the Chinese student's answer?
A. Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.
B. Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.
C. Because he wouldn't like others to say "No".
D. Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the western countries.

Dear Sirs,
I am very happy to apply for the position of secretary, which you advertised in China Daily of December 10, 2005.
I have been working as a secretary at a college office. Because I am the only secretary in the office, it is necessary for me to work quickly and efficiently and to be flexible in my daily work. Professors value my work and my ability to meet their needs.
Although I am happy now, I feel that my promotion (晋升) is limited here, and I would like to have a more challenging job. Therefore, I enrolled (参加) in a program to expand my knowledge of international business affairs. Now, both my English and Chinese have been improved and I am ready to begin working as a bilingual secretary in an international company like yours, and I believe I can be a great help to your firm.
The enclosed resume gives further details of my qualifications, and I would appreciate it if you could give me an opportunity to have an interview. I am looking forward to receiving your call at 62428866 or please use the enclosed pre-paid postcard to send me your reply.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
Faithfully Yours,
Mary Lee

It's very interesting to study names of different countries. Chinese names are different from foreign names. Once an English lady came to {look at; watch; visit} me. When I was introduced to her she said, “Glad to meet you, Miss Ping.” Then she gave me her name card with three words on itA、“Betty J. Black”. So I said, “Thank you, Miss Betty.” We looked at each other and laughed heartily. Later I found that the English people {put; brought; took} their family names last and the given names first, while their middles are not used very much. I explained to her that the Chinese family name {came; comes; put} first, the given name last, so she {would; could; should} never call me Miss Ping. She asked if we Chinese had a middle name. I told her we didn't. But people may often find three words on a Chinese name card. In this case the family name still comes first, the other words after it {is; was; are} a two-word given name. It is quite usual in China. My sister is Li Xiaofang. She has two words in her given name instead of just one like mine.
第10题
In fact, I regard Tianjin as my second hometown, and the students and teachers here as my family members and best friends. I’ll never forget the warmest welcome you gave me when I first arrived in Tianjin. I’ll never forget the day on which you took me to the hospital when I fell ill an the dumplings that Li Ming’s parents prepared for me that night.
Yet, I still remember you were all laughing at me when I was trying to use chopsticks for the first time in Tianjin Food Street, but do you know that now I prefer chopsticks to knives and forks?
I’m very glad to see the great progress you’ve made in your English and the prosperity of vocational education in Tianjin. I am told that many graduates from this college are devoting themselves to the construction of Tianjin now. I believe your future is bright and so is the future of Tianjin.
Now I’m leaving soon, but I have a strong desire to come back to Tianjin, back to my beloved school with my family as soon as possible.
Best wishes!
Thank you!
