27、ouse so that a magpie can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child. This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries, such as Japan and Vietnam. Other countries, though, have tooth customs about other animals. In Mexico and Spain, for example, it is thought that a mouse take

28、s a fallen tooth away and leaves some money. But in Mongolia, it is dogs that take childrens teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture. It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog, so parents in Mongolia will put their childrens fallen teeth

29、in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog. In France and the USA, a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed.

32、h Fairy will leave to the children after taking the fallen teeth away58.

33、ident of the U.S, which then included 16 states that lay east of the Mississippi River. France controlled the large area in the center of the continent, which was known as the Louisiana Territory, and the land west of the Rocky Mountains was primarily under Spanish control. Jefferson, a leader with

34、foresight, believed that it would do well to the U. S to own the rich land. In addition, the port cities at the mouth of the Mississippi River were controlled by France. Jefferson regarded this as possible danger to the U.S economy and to national safety, so he went to Napoleon with an offer to buy

35、the land.Napoleon agreed to sell the land for $15 million, which ended up just a few cents an acre. He decided to give up his holdings in America, which he had just from Spain, so that he could raise money to conquer all of Europe.59.

38、e the confusing and nervous feelings a person may have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different one. When you move to a new place, you have to face a lot of changes. That can be exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. You may feel sad and want to go home. Its natural to hav

39、e difficulty adjusting to a new culture. People from other cultures may have grown up with values and beliefs that differ from yours. Because of these differences, the things they talk about, the ways they express themselves, and the importance of various ideas may be very different from what you ar

40、e used to. But the good news is that culture shock is temporary. What causes culture shock? To understand culture shock helps to understand what culture is. You may know that genes determine a big part of how you look and act. What you might not know is that your environment has a big effect on your

41、 appearance and behavior as well. Your environment isnt just the air you breathe and the food you eat, though; a big part of your environment is culture. Culture is made up of the common things that members of a community learn from family, friends, media, literature, and even strangers. These are t

42、he things that influence how they look, act, and communicate. Often, you dont even know youre learning these things because they become second nature to you, for instance, the way you shake hands with someone when meeting them. When you go to a new place, such as a new country or even a new city, yo

43、u often enter a new culture that is different from the one you left. Sometimes your culture and the new culture are similar. Sometimes, they can be very different, and even contradictory. What might be perfectly normal in one culture, for instance, spending hours eating a meal with your family, migh

44、t be unusual in a culture that values a more fast-paced lifestyle. The differences between cultures can make it very difficult to adjust to the new surroundings that are very easy at home. Dealing with the differences can be very unsettling; those feelings are part of adjusting to a new culture.63.

Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. To live in a new culture is not so easy as stayi

47、ng at home.B. Culture like genes determines a big part of how the society looks and acts.C. Second nature can often make people ignore the things they are learning.D. What might be perfectly normal in one culture is the same in another culture.66. It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. environ

48、ment is also a major factor causing culture shockB. you could not feel culture shock when you are in a contradictory environmentC. people can easily acquire a new culture by second natureD. spending hours having a meal with family must be different from culture to culture DIf you want to teach your

49、children how to say sorry ,you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.If you say to your children "I'm sorry I got angry with you, but. ", what follows that "but" can make the apology ineffective: "I ha

50、d a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache" leaves the child who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior.Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say "I'm sorry you're upset" this

51、 suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.These pseudo(虚假的)-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefor

52、e not turn to these pseudo-apologies.But even when presented with examples of true regret, children still need help to become aware of how difficult it is to say sorry. A three-year-01d might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the h
