    Our village carpenter(木匠), John Hill, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for the job.
    My wife said to me quietly, “It’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said in a loud voice, “It is a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?”
    “I will decide about that when I see the bill, ” I read:
    One dining table, 10 November, 1989.
    Cost of wood: ＄17.00
    Paint: ＄1.50
    Work: 8 hours (＄1 an hour) ＄8.00
    Total: ＄36.50
    When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s been a fine day, hasn’t it? Quite sunny.” “Yes,” I said, “I’m glad it is only the 10th of November.”
    “Me, too,” said John. “You wait. It’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.”
    “Yes, colder…. And more expensive! Dining tables will be ＄20 more expensive on November 30th, won’t they, John?” John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him.
    “If it isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said, “Please add it up again and you can forget the date.”
    I paid him ＄26.50and he was happy to get it.
    小题1:Why did John talk about the weather when the writer was looking at the bill?_______
    A．Because he didn’t want the writer to go through the bill carefully.
    B．Because it was really a fine day.
    C．Because he wanted the writer to check the bill carefully.
    D．Because he wanted to tell the writer what the weather was like.
    小题2:Why did the writer say that dining table would be＄ 20 more expensive on November 30th ?__________ 
    A．Because it was difficult to make dining tables in cold weather.
    B．Because paint would be more expensive.
    C．Because the cost of wood would be more expensive.
    D．Because he thought John would certainly add to the cost of the dining table.
    小题3:From the story we know that _____________
    A．John made a mistake in the bill.
    B．John tried to fool the writer in order to get more money for his work
    C．John had written out the bill before the writer got home.

    What brings a nation together? Of the four choices — shared values, language, history, and religion, it’s shared values. In our latest poll (民意调査), seven out of 16 countries chose values as the greatest factor (因索）bringing a nation together, and six preferred language. Both choices scored high in the poll, suggesting that our values and how we express them are closely linked Still, history was not forgotten in some countries, particularly in Mexico and Russia. Even Canada and the United States chose national histories as the second-most important factor uniting their people. The biggest surprise? Not one country picked religion as its top choice.
    Respect your elders
    In most countries, the oldest
    generation considered values more important to a nation than did those who are under 45 years old.
    		Do you speak Canadian?
    Language scored lower in Canada than in all other countries polled, perhaps because the country speaks two official languages, French and English.
    		Church and state
    Most people polled do not connect their religious beliefs to their national pride. Religion ranked last in 13 countries — with France scoring it at 1%, the lowest of all.
    小题1:According to the poll, what was the most important factor in bringing a nation together?
    A．Language.B．Values.C．History.D．Religion.
