When talking to a Westerner, however, you have to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn't be smiling. When a person doesn't like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.
If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don't say, "Oh, you're a pig!" Most Westerners will be quite understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake. However, don't take any chances. You might just offend someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.

A.they worship pigs best of all
B.they consider pigs as bad animals
C.they aren’t used to talking about pigs

Food for space has to be packed in special ways. Some of it goes into tubes that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bite-sized cookies are packed in plastic.
There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keeps pieces of food from travelling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces of food would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn' t pull them to the floor when they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. (78) They move here and there and can get into a man' s eyes or into the spaceship' s instruments. If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home.
As astronauts travel on longer space trips, he must take time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt. Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat. But be careful he must put his hands under the belt when he goes to sleep. This is because he is really afraid that he might touch one of controls that isn' t supposed to be touched until later.
Why would astronauts cover each bite of food in space?
A.Because small pieces of food would fall down to the floor.
B.Because weightless pieces of food might make trouble when they travel around.
C.Because they haven' t enough food for longer trips.
D.Because astronauts don' t want to waste food.

Having been through the same experience myself several times, I have my own four main rules to follow. They have helped me ,and they can help you ,too:
Ⅰ. Show your future employers what you can do for them. What do you bring that's unique? To paraphrase President Kennedy: Ask not what your employer can de for you, but what you can do for your employer. Don't tell the person interviewing you what's on your resume(简历) , which they have already read. Tell them instead how you are going to do this job better than anyone else would ;make them think about how good the boss who hired you will look. In other words, sell your advantages, not your features. You do that by talking about your knowledge and your skills--the experience and contacts you have developed in your field and the abilities you have developed over your career.
Ⅱ. Maintain an open attitude. Openness is the quality that is essential in virtually every, kind of social and business talk if you are to be successful. Don't be so businesslike in your behaviour. Communicate your enthusiasm for the job. This is a refreshing characteristic that employers don't always find in job interviews, and the applicant who displays it sometimes will find out later it was the one quality that made a difference.
Ⅲ. Be prepared. Go over the key points you want to make about yourself. Even write them down on a yellow pad and review them several times before the interview. And don't duck(躲避) the hard questions, put them down and then figure out how you are going to answer them. If you've changed jobs three times in the past seven years, expect to be asked why. And if you want to go that extra mile, put yourself through a dress rehearsal(彩排) by having someone play the role of your future employer and "interview" you. That's an extremely effective technique, one that will give you a much better shot at getting that job.
Ⅳ. Ask questions. Asking questions is how you learn, and in a job interview you definitely want to learn about the company just as much as the company wants to learn about you.
You'll never have a better opportunity to get a feel for your future company or boss. Besides, employers respect someone who displays the initiative (主动) to ask intelligent questions about the company. That shows you possess two of the most persuasive (有说服力的) qualities that we just talked about: you are prepared ,and you care.
Having experienced several job interviews, the author has reached the conclusion that you should ______.
A.tell your future employer your unique abilities, have an open attitude, be well prepared and ask questions
B.purposely show yourself off, have an open attitude, be prepared, ask tough questions
C.tell your future employer your unique abilities, be careful about your outer appearance, prepare and ask tough questions
D.sell your features, be prepared, have an open attitude and ask questions
A.We are all very busy today
B.We are all very careful today
C.We aren’t very busy today
As a general rule, a small gift from your home country is appreciated. A gift that is tied to the particular interest of the individual is especially appreciated. Gifts for children are also well received. Be careful that the "hometown" gift you are bringing to Singapore was not made in Hong Kong. Because many gifts carry symbolic meanings, it is always best to seek the advice of a cultural informant before selecting gifts. The giving of large gifts, or payments for special service, should only be undertaken after consulting the legal department in the home and host culture.
It is no good inviting people of different social positions to the same party in the country where ______.
A.people don't pay any attention to your positions
B.people care much about their statuses
C.entertainment is important
D.entertainment is not advisable
