Tibetan people are friendly and easy to get along with. However, Tibetans have different ways of behavior in many aspects due to their unique culture and religion. Be sure to respect local customs and be polite.

Don’t enter a monastery without permission. Don’t smoke in monasteries. Don’t touch Buddha statues, religious objects or prayer flags. Walk around monasteries (寺院), temples, dagobas, Mongolian cairns (Mani piles) and other religious structures in clockwise order with the exception of the Bon sites.

Don t step on the threshold when entering a tent, house, or monastery. Don’t touch the head of a Tibetan. The head is considered as a sacred part of the body. Remember to cross your legs when you are asked to have a seat. Don’t stretch your legs with feet pointing to others.

Don’t drive away or hurt eagles. Eagles are considered holy birds in the hearts of Tibetan people. Don’t disturb or injure cows or sheep with red, green or yellow ribbons because they are Tibetan sacrifice to worship gods.

Don’t take photos without permission. You’d better ask for permission before taking pictures of Tibetan people. Most Tibetan monasteries are not allowed to take pictures or you need to pay.

Tibetan people are getting more used to habits of foreigners and being more tolerant due to rapidly developing tourism in Tibet. However, we still hope you can show respect to Tibetan traditions and behave well since their unique lifestyle is part of the charm of Tibet. 21. What are forbidden to do in a religious place? A.

Twelve years ago, I was a 19 -year-old guy living in the French A1ps. In February 2004, while skiing the back - country in Val d’Isere, I fell off the mountain, resulting in a right leg broken in several pieces. I was helicoptered to hospital, operated on immediately—and there started my adult life.

Before the accident, I was on a path to what I hoped would be a career in rugby. After-wards, and participation in collision sport was gone. I found a replacement in cycling. Unfortunately, by late 2018, I tried to cycle up Mount Ventoux, but it was halfway up when the pain hit me and I gave up.

A decision needed to be made on a next step. I had to have my lower right leg cut off. Several months later, I had my first proper weight - bearing prosthetic (假肢). I jumped on a train with my bike to Mount Ventoux. Though it certainly wasn’t my quickest, I did it.

Two weeks later, I was lucky enough to be given a running blade; I bounced on it that day and then raced my triathlon (三项全能) on the Monday. So, that was me, up and running - almost 12 years since I had last run.

Along with my running coach, I plete a “make every kilometre count” programme of four runs per week alongside a busy cycle, swim and gym schedule. So far this year, I have raced a 10k with an unexpected personal best in January of 38:04. I have my first speed triathlon in late March before heading to North Korea to pete in the Pyongyang Marathon on 10 April.

If my lifetime allows, I will attempt to race in every country in the world. In the meantime, I’ll keep on running — and, when it hurts and I’ m low on motivation, I’ll remember how far I’ve e and how much further I’ve got to go.

24. What had been the author’s special interest before the accident? A. Skiing.

B. Running.

C. Cycling.

D. Rugby.

B. Locals.

When people ask me to name typical British dishes, I have, however, struggled to think of an answer. Yes, we do have our own national dishes. We do have fish and chips, and we have other dishes like roast dinner and shepherd’s pie. But how much do we actually eat them?

Fish and chips, is made up of battered (绞碎的) fish and chips, which is often acpanied by a thick paste (酱). The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat, say, on a weekly basis. It’s also not usually something that we would cook at home. The British people associate this dish with the seaside and it’s something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there, bought from a takeaway fish and chip shop.

Another favourite British dish is roast dinner. This is made up of roast meat, usually chicken or beef, acpanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce called gravy (肉汁). It is usually eaten on a Sunday, perhaps for a special family dinner. It can either be cooked at home or eaten in a traditional pub. We also eat a more elaborate version of this for our Christmas dinner.

Although we do have our traditional dishes, our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries. You can find a wide range of international foods in the supermarket or varieties of different restaurants on our high streets. A famous saying amongst British people is that our national dish is now chicken tikka masala, a dish which is heavily influenced by Indian cuisine.

Don’t expect to be served a traditional dish if you ever get invited for dinner at a British family’s home!

28. What do you know about fish and chips? A. It is a home cooking for the British people.

C. Determined.

D. Generous.

B. It is a seaside dish eaten on a day trip there. C. It is a Sunday dish for a family dinner. D. It is an international food from India. 29. What is special about roast dinner? A. It is only served for Christmas dinner. B. It is the top choice for a family dinner. C. It is the most popular with foreigners. D. It es from a foreign cuisine.

30. Which of the following might be an international food? A. Fish and chips. C. Shepherd’s pie.

B. Roast dinner.

D. Chicken tikka masala.

31. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explore some British national dishes. B. To make an advertisement for British Dishes. C. To introduce the British table manners. D. To tell about British Eating Habits.

People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.

A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese, for example, because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language. The greater the differences between the second language and our first, the harder it will be for most people to learn.

Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.

Different cultures and individuals will find different languages more difficult. In the case of Hungarian for British learners, it is not a question of the writing system, which uses
