Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English，but is running free and developing uniquely local forms.Can you figure out the following terms？
    "I like your smile，but unlike you put your shoes on my face. " This is a way of saying "Keep off the grass. " or "people mountain，people sea"，which means "very crowded".
   These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it comes to Chinglish，if all you know is "good good study，day day up"，you will be considered "out man".
   Nowadays，more Chinglish words have been created，for example，a Chinese idiom is translated as "smilence"，a combination by the English word smile and silence.
   Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs，products，and advertising.They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors.Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years. "I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know，sometimes for us foreigners，it's actually quite charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect，then something would be lost from Chinese culture. "
   However，Chinglish will probably become a "cultural relic" in the near future.Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years. "It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries，" a Beijinger said.
   Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth，and now it's Chinese's turn.

2．When Mark Levine，an English-language instructor at Beijing's Minzu University of China，was first invited to attend a Chinese colleague's wedding in Jiangsu province in 2017，his second year in China，the California native was ready to present a small decorative gift for the new couple as he used to do in the United States．
   However，his gesture suddenly didn't seem proper as he realized the Chinese at the ceremony had red envelopes filled with cash to present rather than a packed gift．
   "It's a little bit embarrassing when you present something that people didn't expect to receive on certain occasions，" Levine，who used to be a social worker in the US，told China Daily recently．
   "In the US，people do that as well but only for close relatives．People would normally give things as presents，while here in China red envelopes are more commonly welcomed．"
   It was the first time the 66-year-old discovered the ceremony-including taboos（禁忌）-in gift giving．He was not alone，as the recent argument following a British minister's visit to Taipei，Taiwan，revealed．
   British Minister of State for Transport Baroness Susan Kramer presented a watch in January to Ko Wen-je，mayor of Taipei，when she visited the city，immediately sparking headlines as she broke a long-held taboo in Chinese culture．
  A clock or watch，or zhong in Mandarin，signifies "the end" in Chinese，and many associate it with death．Therefore，giving someone，especially an elder，a clock or watch implies "your time is up"．
   Kramer later apologized for the gaffe（失禮），but Ko was also blamed for his "rude" response as he told reporters that he had no use for the watch and would sell it for cash．
   However，some foreigners in China，such as Mark Dreyer，support Ko in this particular debate． "When I heard about the story，I felt embarrassed，" said Dreyer，a British citizen who has lived and worked in China since 2007． "After all， 'don't give clocks or watches to your hosts' is on page 1 of most China travel guides．I'm embarrassed by the lack of respect shown by the British for not even reading about the customs ahead of time．"

（1）What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph3 refer to？

A．Presenting gifts．
B．Giving cash．
C．Attending weddings．
D．Receiving money．
（2）How did the public view Ko's response to the gift？

A．They considered it a smart move．
B．They believed he had no other choice．
C．They saw it as a rudeness．
D．They thought it proper．
（3）What was Dreyer's attitude to the British Minister's gift？

A．Negative．
B．Supportive．
C．Positive．
D．Doubtful．
（4）What can we learn from the passage？

A．Presenting red envelopes is a bad custom in China．
B．British know nothing about Chinese customs．
C．Americans don't expect to receive cashes as gifts．
D．Chinese don't expect to receive clocks as gifts．

3．People in Brazil mark Carnival（狂歡節(jié)）every year and it is considered to be one of the most important national holidays.It is not about a big moment in history or a famous person，but it is important for the people because it is a time of friendship，freedom，and many days without work.People can choose between parties and rest.Most people choose parties，day after day，night after night.
   Carnival is celebrated forty days earlier than Easter，but it is not recognized by the church.It lasts four days and four nights.People put on their holiday clothes and go out into the streets or to clubs to enjoy themselves together.
   There are also some celebration activities.For instance，samba schools make a parade showing their music and beautiful cars.They are followed by people.Every year the parade tells a different story，and each city has one or more schools like this.
   In the south the celebration of Carnival comes back to normal by Wednesday.The problem is that it is not recognized by the church in the northwest where the Carnival is more traditional.There，people do not respect its end and continue to party until the next Sunday.
   Carnival is my favorite holiday，but I do not agree that the party should keep going.Like at other popular parties，people drink，dance and have fun.Unfortunately，some people are not very responsible and give it a bad name，leaving a bad impression of this holiday，but it is the only national holiday that brings the whole country and its different people and cultures together.
