He said it was a strange visit. “I dont understand, but I frightened your grandmother a lot. When I arrived, I gave her a purse from Suzhou, she looked in it and asked me to take it back. Then I saw a red spider on the table so I killed it for her and she seemed very unhappy. Do English people like spiders?“Later we went shopping. Someone was painting a shop front, so there was a ladder. Grandmother stopped me from walking under it and said I must walk around it. I liked the shops and bought some lovely rose soap for my mother, a smart umbrella for my father and some new shoes for myself. When we got back, I put the shoes on the table and opened the umbrella to check if it was all right. Your grandmother came in and screamed.“Then I broke a small mirror in the bathroom. Your grandmothers face went white. I felt very sorry. When I left I gave your grandmother some flowers. She counted and there were l 3. She didnt like it. I think she was happy l was going.”I explained to Lu, “My grandmother follows the old customs(习俗). You must not give someone an empty purse or they will have no money. You must not kill a money spider or the same will happen. Also it is very unlucky to walk under a ladder and to put new shoes on the table. An open umbrella in a house means someone will die. Breaking a mirror brings seven years bad luck, and l 3 is also a very unlucky number. You were really making my grandmother very afraid.( ) 26.Why did Lu frighten the writers grandmother?A. Because he could not speak English. B. Because he did many unlucky things.C. Because he understood British customs.D. Because he went shopping in England.( ) 27.What do many British people think of spiders?A. They are afraid of them. B. They keep spiders as pets.C. They think some kinds of spiders are lucky.D. They hope to see every kind of spiders in their houses.( ) 28. What did the writers grandmother feel when she saw the umbrella?A. Excited. B. Angry. C. Happy. D. Afraid( ) 29.

How many wrong things did Lu do altogether?A. 5 B. 7C. 8D. 10BPerhaps youve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from elegant (优雅的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters.Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.“I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me My hometown is Henan Province, I know he should say: My hometown is in Henan Province. Hometown is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes he picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate”, not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”, rather than “Care of the green”.( ) 31. What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?A. He doesnt think it means water closet.B. He doesnt think it old-fashioned English.C. He doesnt think it proper for a sign.D. He thinks it elegant English. ( ) 32.

A. why there are so many Chinglish signs B. examples of Chinglish C. where Chinglish signs are D. who uses Chinglish signs CPeople use their mouths for many things. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice.Sometimes, people say something to a friend or a family member. Later they sorrow because it hurts that persons feelings. Or they tell the person something they didnt mean to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend is going to say. When this happens, the friend might say: “You took the words right out of my mouth!” Sometimes a person has a bad or sad experience with another person. He might say that experience “left a bad taste in my mouth.” Or the person possibly has a very frightening (可怕的) experience, like having an angry dog running after him. He might say: “I had my heart in my mouth.”Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. You might say the person “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth”. He is the opposite of a person living from “hand to mouth”. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food. ( ) 36. The underlined word “sorrow” may mean _.A. feel sorry B. feel excited C. feel proud D. feel surprised( ) 37.
