一、用所给词的正确形式填空。
1. People from different (culture) celebrate the New Year differently.
2. Lisa felt so (confuse) about the answer to the question that she raised her hand in class.
3. From the smile on Miss Li's face, we can see she is (please) with us.
4. When you are in a foreign country, you can greet others just by (give) a smile.
5. Canadians normally shake hands (greet) people in formal situations.

1. cultures 2. confused 3. pleased 4. giving 5. to greet

【分析】
1. 看到形容词different，需修饰可数名词复数，culture是可数名词，故变复数形式；
2. 主语是人Lisa，修饰人的感受用ed结尾的形容词，区分confusing（修饰物）和confused（修饰人）；
3. 固定搭配be pleased with表示“对……满意”，直接用对应形容词；
4. 介词by后需接动词的动名词形式作宾语；
5. 句中已有谓语动词shake，此处表目的用不定式作目的状语。
【解析】
1. 句意：来自不同文化的人庆祝新年的方式不同。different后接可数名词复数，culture的复数为cultures，故填cultures；
2. 句意：Lisa对这个问题的答案感到非常困惑，所以她在课堂上举手。修饰人用ed形式的形容词，confuse的形容词confused符合要求，故填confused；
3. 句意：从李老师脸上的笑容，我们可以看出她对我们很满意。固定搭配be pleased with是正确表达，故填pleased；
4. 句意：当你在国外时，你可以通过微笑来问候别人。介词by后接动名词，give的动名词是giving，故填giving；
5. 句意：加拿大人在正式场合通常握手来问候别人。此处用不定式作目的状语，表握手的目的，故填to greet；
【答案】
1. cultures 2. confused 3. pleased 4. giving 5. to greet
【知识点】
名词复数、形容词用法、非谓语动词
【点评】

三、阅读理解。
In the USA, it is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are casual(随意的)—a handshake,a smile and a “hello” will do just fine.

In Japan, the common greeting among men and women is to bow,instead of giving a handshake or a hug.
In Hungary,people like to greet in a friendly way—kiss each other on both cheeks. The most common way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time,a handshake is the norm.
In Albania,men shake hands when greeting one another. A kiss on the cheek may also be common if there is a close relationship. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks.
