Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person.
When giving gifts, sometimes color is important. For example, for many Chinese people around the world, red is a lucky color, and people often like to pack gifts in this color. However, did you know that in Korea ，red is a color of death. That is why you should not pack gifts in this color if you are giving a gift to a Korean person.
What about western countries? In western countries, the color of packing paper is not really important. But color does matter when giving flowers，especially roses．You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol (象征) of love．You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．You could also send pink roses as gifts to say thank you．
What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well，one thing you should keep in mind is the person’s religion (宗教)．When choosing a gift for a Muslim (回教徒的)or Jewish (犹太族的)friend，you should never get food including pork or things made from pigskin．Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol(酒)．
根据短文内容简要回答下列问题
小题1:In which country do people think red is the color of death?
小题2:How could we show our friendship to the western friends?
小题3: Can we give a Muslim friend a bottle of alcohol as a gift ?
小题4: How many colors are mentioned (提到) in this passage?
小题5:What’s the main idea of this passage?

小题1:Korea
小题2:Send yellow roses
小题3:No, we can't
小题4:Three
小题5:Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person.

小题2:根据You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．故填Send yellow roses
小题3:根据Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol(酒)．故填No, we can't

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies in their bodies. At that time---about eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down. This is what makes slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern(模式). They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that _____________ are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from heart disease.
Many working people, unluckily, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers(雇主们) do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making use of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap--- even ten minutes sleep can be helpful.
