Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Every culture has set rules about how people should act. Patterns of good behavior, or manners, show respect and care for others. Yet the details of how to express respect vary.Greeting people cheerfully is almost always considered polite. But it's more important in some cultures than others. For example, when you enter a store in France, you should always greet the person working there. Other cultures also value greeting people. But of course the greetings vary as people speak different languages.When I was growing up in the United States, I once participated in a performance at my church. Afterward, someone gave me a compliment, but I felt like I had done a bad job. So I tried to refuse the compliment, saying, "No, I didn't do that well." My mother got my attention and told me that was very rude. Later I learned that refusing a compliment is accepted and even approved of in China.Some of the biggest cultural differences have to do with table manners. In North America,it's polite to eat as quietly as possible. That means chewing with your mouth closed andnot slurping(吃东西时发出的声音)your soup. The same goes for burping(打嗝). But in parts of Asia slurping shows that you are enjoying your meal. And burping is a sign of being full and content.There are also differences in how people eat across cultures. For example, in North America and Europe people use forks to bring food to their mouths. But in Thailand, afork is only used to push food onto a spoon. In India and the Middle East, people eat with their hands. But eating with the left hand is forbidden. This is because the left hand is considered unclean.Yet there are also similar points across cultures. Saying "please" and "thank you", for example, is almost always polite. If you show appreciation and try to follow local customs,people will generally respond well. Showing kindness can bring people together, no matter what culture they come from.十二、单词填空34.Few people know about online food delivery apps 10 years ago, but today many would find that it is hard to live w【小题1】 them. In China alone, over 400 million people use such apps. For better or for worse, online food delivery s【小题2】 have changed the way we eat, and they are also having a huge influence on our society.These apps have no doubt bringing us many benefits. They provide jobs for millions of people and help restaurants find more customers. S【小题3】 the apps are very convenient, they also benefit consumers. We can now have meals delivered at any time of day, which is especially important for people who work long hours, as they might not have time to cook. Not only do these apps save time, they also provide us with a wide variety of restaurants to choose from.However, we must not forget the problems of online food delivery. For one thing, they make it even easier to order u【小题4】 food, high in sugar, fat and salt. Food safety is another problem. It can be hard to tell where the food a【小题5】 comes from, and whether the owner is allowed to run a restaurant. As couriers (递送者) need to deliver the orders as quickly as possible, some may pay less attention to traffic rules. These years, there have been a number of terrible traffic accidents because of this. Moreover, the industry is p【小题6】unbelievable amounts of packaging waste. Over a million tons of online food delivery boxes are thrown away every year.There are many good points of online food delivery, but we need to make sure that we make the right c【小题7】 in the long run. We should do our best to limit waste, especially whenit comes to packaging. We also need to think about what we eat and the influence on our health. Next time you want to order in, you should think about whether you really need to. In most cases, it is better to walk over to the supermarket, buy the ingredients you need, and then cook them on your own.十三、回答问题35. On June 28, my parents celebrated 70 years of marriage. Mum and Dad live in Calve. They have been through years of hard work and good times always supporting each other.As a child, I remember my parents working side by side for spring, fall, winter, and summer cleaning or working in the yard, or painting, and wallpapering.My parents bought a house in Eimont. They never believed they'd be able to own their own home, and to them, it was their castle. They worked hard to decorate it and kept it looking beautiful. They taught us to work hard and to enjoy everything we had.Mom likes everything﹣sightseeing, clubs, anything. And everything Dad, even today,can't understand why she always wants to go out! Mom is still active with the Red Hatters women's group and her gardening club. Dad spoils her by taking care of the house, butalso watches a lot of baseball and does jigsaw puzzles.The key to their successful marriage is that they respect each other. With the help of my brother, they also stay current with new technology, Their latest acquisition is an iPad.My brother, who is 67, and I (now 69),have always known we are lucky to have such great parents. They have shown us what love is, what hard work is, and what respect is all about.My daughter and I try to see them almost every weekend when we play cards together and catch up on the week's news.My parents are the glue that holds our whole family together, making holidays and ordinary days special to us all.I know we are lucky to have them both, I even save all of their voice﹣mail messages, just so I'll have their voice to hear when they are not here, But Mom keeps telling us all she's certainly going to live to be 100. So we will have a few more holidays, birthdays, and memories to experience.上海市闵行区2020-2021学年九年级上学期期末(一模)英语试题答案1. C2. B3. B4. C5. A6. B7. D8. A9. C10. D11. C12. D13. A14. B15.
