The easy way out isn't always easiest. I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug, my husband of one month, to a special meal. I glanced through my cookbook and chose a menu(菜谱) which included homemade bread. Knowing the bread would take time , I started on it as soon as Doug left for work. As I was not experienced in cooking, I thought if a dozen was good, two dozens would be better, so I doubled（加倍）everything. As Doug loved oranges, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl. Soon there was a sticky dough (面团) covered with ugly yellowish marks. Realizing I had been defeated, I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work. I went on preparing the rest of the meal, and, when Doug got home , we sat down to eat Cornish chicken with rice. He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed. Twice he got up and went outside , saying he thought he heard a noise. The third time he left, I went to the windows to see what he was doing. Looking out, I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin, holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container. When I came out of the house, he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in our rubbish bin. Picking up the stick again, he held the lid up enough for me to see. I felt cold. But I stepped closer and looked harder. Without doubt it was my work. The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast (酵母)made the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing. It looked like some unknown being from outer space. I could see why Doug was so shaken. I had to admit what the “living thing” was and why it was there. I don't know who was more embarrassed(尴尬)by the whole thing -- Doug or me.
_The writer's purpose in writing this story is ___________
A. to tell an interesting experience
B. to show the easiest way out of a difficulty
C. to describe the trouble facing a newly married woman
D. to explain the difficulty of learning to cook from books
_ Why did the woman's attempt at making the bread turn out to be unsuccessful?
A. The canned orange had gone bad. B. She didn't use the right kind of flour.
C. The cookbook was hard to understand. D. She did not follow the directions closely.
_ Why did the woman put the dough in the rubbish bin?
A. She didn't see the use of keeping it B. She meant to joke with her husband.
C. She didn't want her husband to see it . D. She hoped it would soon dry in the sun.
_ What made the dough in the rubbish bin look frightening?
A. The rising and falling movement. B. The strange-looking marks.
C. Its shape. D. Its size.
_ When Doug went out the third time, the woman looked out of the window because she was ____.
A. surprised at his being interested in the bin B. afraid that he would discover her secret
C. unhappy that he didn't enjoy the meal D. curious to know what disturbed him

As I was leaving to meet Lynne，my roommate told me that I’d better take some money，but I didn’t listen to him. I thought that Lynne would pay because she had invited me.
I arrived at the restaurant exactly on time. I’d been told that Americans expect you to be on time. Lynne and I sat at a table in the corner of the restaurant and a waitress came and took our order. The dinner was a great success. I talked a lot about Saudi Arabia and Lynne told me all about herself. After two hours the waitress finally came and asked if we wanted one check or two. Lynne said two. We went to the cashier and Lynne paid her check. I was embarrassed (尴尬) when the cashier gave me my bill. I had no money to pay for my meal. Then I had an idea. I pretended to look for something in my pockets and said，“Oh！I forgot my money! Can I call my roommate，please？” The cashier showed me where the phone was and I quickly called my roommate.
In a few minutes he arrived with some money，but he couldn’t hide how he felt. He laughed all the way home.
Now，I think it’s funny too. But at the time I was terribly embarrassed. I thought that an invitation to have dinner meant the same thing in the United States as in my country. I guess you have to understand that your customs（习俗） are only your customs. When you visit a foreign country，you have to learn about their customs，too.
【小题1】Customs can be ________in different countries according to this passage.
| A．close to each other | B．entirely different |
| C．quite the same | D．very similar |
| A．invite Lynne to dinner | B．pay for the table |
| C．share the cost of the meal | D．pay for the restaurant |
| A．shared a successful dinner |
| B．had a talk for three hours |
| C．traveled to Saudi Arabia together |
| D．enjoyed their meal without talking |
| A．Because she thought it was natural for people to pay their own check. |
| B．Because she didn’t have the meal. |
| C．Because she wanted to embarrass the writer. |
| D．Because she didn’t have enough money with her. |
| A．was embarrassed when he couldn’t pay his breakfast |
| B．would not listen to him when he left the house |
| C．telephoned him to bring some books to him |
| D．hadn’t told Lynne the truth |
