18、tine. I dont even give it a second thought. In China, its a whole other story! Here, ordering is a fun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served! Many restaurants in central Beijing advertise English language menus, but the translations can just add to the conf
19、usion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with off-the-wall names. As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like students addicted to
20、 chicken gristle ( ) and red burned lion head. It was always fun to see what landed on our table. Eventually we learned that lion head was actually pork, and students are addicted to diced ( ) chicken with green pepper. Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing
21、 hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools ( ) eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and called out for a caidan! In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant.
22、 The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: crossing over the bridge noodles. I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it would taste like. I took a gamble and ordered one bowl of crossing over the bridge noodles. A few minut
23、es later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth ( ) and I quickly dug in. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and again and each time I point at the one English sentence crossing over the bridge noodles. I always enter a restaurant in China feeling

27、laugh, or even smile? If not, you may not have a dry sense of humor. British people, and particularly the English, are well-known for our dry sense of humor. We often say the opposite of what we mean in order to be funny, and tell jokes in a tone of voice that makes it sound like we are being comple
28、tely serious. As US writer Julian Tan put it on the HuffPost Students blog: It is as if it is Opposite Day every day in Britain. If the people of Britain are known for having a stiff upper lip and not showing emotion, then our dry sense of humor shows this through jokes. Often it will take a long ti
29、me or several beers, to get a British person to tell you what they actually think about something and get behind the wall of humorous sarcasm ( ) that they have in front of them. English comedian Ricky Gervais put it like this: We play jokes on our friends. We use sarcasm as a shield ( ) and a weapo
30、n. We avoid being serious until its absolutely necessary. It can be annoying and confusing if you havent been raised with these types of jokes: Why did he just say such a ridiculous thing? Is he making fun of me? But it is also true that understanding this type of humor is a good way to make friends
31、 with people in the UK, even if you dont find it funny. Its important to remember that the person telling the joke may actually be making fun of himself or herself, not you. One of the characteristics of British humor is its strong theme of self-deprecation (making fun of oneself), according to Tan.
32、 So dont worry often, English people, and British people in general, just want to make fun of themselves! 60. According to the passage, we can know that someone with a dry sense of humor can _.

35、ake a long time to make friends with British people 64. The passage is mainly about _. A. why British people like laughing at themselves B. some tips on how to make British people laugh C. the importance of humor in British culture D. what British humor is like C Mrs Bennet, Pride and Prejudice Jane
36、 Austen described Mrs Bennet as a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper : she topped your list of the least favorite female family heads. With her single-minded devotion to marrying off her daughters, she is one of literatures parents involving themselves in their son
37、s or daughters private lives. And at least she pays attention to her daughters. Whatever one might lay at her daughters door, she defends them. Helen Graham, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall The second and final novel by Anne Bront was so shocking that after Annes death, her sister Charlotte prevented it
38、s re-publication. Published for the first time in 1848, it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son. In fleeing her husband, Helen was not just challenging social structures, she was breaking the law: at the time, a married woman had no independent legal e
39、xistence, and by taking her child with her she was likely to be punished for kidnapping( ). Helens actions didnt just establish her as a good mother; they helped to cause a movement. Marilla Cuthbert, Anne of Green Gables The adoptive mother of orphan Anne makes herself known as a softy through the
40、course of the 1908 novel: so much so that Margaret Attwood has claimed that Marilla is the true central character: Her growing love for Anne, and her growing ability to express that love not Annes duckling-to-swan act is the real magic transformation. Anne is the catalyst( ) who allows the strict Ma
41、rilla to finally express her long-buried softer human emotions. Mrs Waterbury, The Railway Children The Railway Childrens female family head is a very real mother, strong but also easily hurt. Presenting an idealized( ) vision of childhood, yet the novel contains a tension between appearance and rea
42、lity which some have said reflects its author E Nesbits personal life. Her husband had an ongoing affair with her best friend, who bore him two children that Nesbit raised as her own.
