24、One important part of any culture is its customs. Here are 3 customs from around the world.
Point with lips
In Nicaragua in Central America, people feel that pointing with the finger is impolite. So, it’s common to point with the lips instead of the finger there. Wondering just how exactly a person points with his lips? It all starts by puckering up (撅) the lips. Once a person has his duck face on, he can direct his lips forward or side to side to show what he wants to point out. The lip point is often used in conversation to show something that is happening nearby.
Hang out in cemeteries (墓园)
While cemeteries are considered scary places in many countries, this is not the case in Denmark. Many people might prefer to hang out in parks, but locals have turned their cemeteries into places where they meet friends. These cemeteries are very tidy. When the weather begins to warm up, the cemeteries are full of locals. Assistens Kirkegard in the country’s capital provides a perfect example. As you hang out there, you can see many famous people buried there, including Hans Christian Andersen, author of The Ugly Duckling.
Make slurping (啜食) sounds
Most countries around the world have rules about table manners. For western cultures, it is considered impolite to make loud noises while eating. In Japan, however, this action has a completely different meaning. Making slurping sounds when eating noodles in Japan is a way of showing that someone is really enjoying them. Some scientists even believe that eating noodles this way could make them taste better.
【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.Locals like to meet famous people.
B.Only old people like to visit cemeteries.
C.Assistens Kirkegard is a famous cemetery.
D.Children are not allowed to hang out in cemeteries.
【2】What will westerners think if they see John slurping?
A.His action is impolite.
B.He likes his food very much.
C.It is common for people to do that.
D.He is expressing his thanks to the cook.
【3】What do the three customs have in common?
A.They are all related to food culture.
B.They all attract many foreigners.
C.They all come from the West.
D.They are all surprising.

27、It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat on the bench in Washington, D.C. Union Station, waiting for the train. Inside the waiting hall were many people.
A boy sat nearby. His worn jacket, pale face, dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was homeless.
“He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him,” I said to myself.
Just at that moment, a well-dressed young couple walked towards him.
“Excuse me,” the man bent down. “My wife and I bought two meal boxes but one was enough for us. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?” he handed the boy a meal box.
The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped. In the direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags in a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, entering the hall.
Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood and helped the old to his seat. He took off his jacket and covered it on the old man’s shoulders, saying, “A gentleman brought me this warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still-warm meal box in the old man’s hands without waiting for an answer.
“Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. It’s too much for a man at my age. ”
We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and dad went up to those rags, “Excuse me…”

28、 Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a rich country. One day, he went on a t【1】 to some distant(遥远的)areas of his country.
