第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共20小题；每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Some years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, %us.%us although I wish we had hired someone else.\Then I discovered that in American English \
So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．
Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate（气候），while getting on with business.
Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality（准时）．If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word \because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.
31. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______.
A. the American bank might hire another person B. it's easy to misunderstand Americans C. it's difficult to get used to American culture
D. the American bank didn't think much of him
32. The word “highlights” in Paragraph 2 probably means______.
A. encourages
B. helps to narrow D. draws attention to
B. Understand and accept them. D. Do in-depth research.
C. increases
33. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?
A. Ask the native people for help. C. Do things in our own way.
34. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.
A. Italians B. Greeks C. the British D. Germans

There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, were to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penage. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar I sighed and sat down to read my Economics
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive, I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazine into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared t everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
