Like most English children, I learned foreign languages at school. When I made my first visit to the United States, I was sure I could have a nice and easy holiday without any language problem. But how wrong I was!
At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to tell my friend Danny that I had arrived. An American asked if he could help me. "Yes," I said, '1 want to give my friend a ring."
"Well, that's nice. Are you getting married?" he asked. "No," I replied, "I just want to tell him I have arrived." "Oh," he said, "there is a phone downstairs on the first floor." "But we're on the first floor now," I said.
"Well, I don't know what you are talking about Maybe you aren't feeling too well after your journey," he said. "Just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better." And he went off, leaving me wondering where on earth I was: At home we wash up after a meal to get the cups and plates clean. How can I wash up at an airport?
At last we did meet. Danny explained the misunderstanding: Americans say "to give someone a call", but we English say "to give somebody a ring". When we say "to wash your hands", they say "to wash up". And Englishmen start numbering from the ground floor so the first floor is the second for Americans.The writer went to America by ______.

The third floor in England is the ______floor in America.
| A．first | B．second | C．third | D．Fourth |
Look closely at your hands. Are they clean? It doesn't matter how many times you wash your hands, tiny microbes (微生物) still stay on them. But don't worry. Most microbes don't harm you.
Now scientists say the microbes on our hands cou
ld be used in a surprising way; fighting crime, According to a recent survey microbes as well as fingerprints(指纹) could be used to indentify the criminal.
Everyone has his own set of microbes on the hands. That is to say, if you and your best friend were able to see and compare all the microbes on your hands, your hands probably would look different. Some microbes only show up on your hands while others live only on your friend's hands.
When you work on a computer you leave the microbes from your hands on the keyboard. The scientists can easily tell the owner of the keyboard by looking at the microbes on it. Even if you don't leave your fingerprints behind, your microbes may give you away.
Noah Fierer, a scientist, says. "You can only clean a fingerprint, but you can't sterilize (使无菌
) a surface j
ust by wiping(擦) it off," He says that scientists have a lot more work to do before the microbe is used as a useful tool.According to the passage,_______ could be used to identify the criminal.
| A．fingerprints | B．scientists' hands |
| C．microbes | D．fingerprints and microbes on people's hands |
Paragraph 3 tells us that________.
| A．our hands look similar | B．the microbes will make the keyboard dirty. |

When you work on computer, the microbes________.
| A．just stay on our hands | B．also stay on the keyboard |
| C．will do harm to you | D．will disappear |
From Noah Fierer we know that________.
| A．fingerprints are no longer useful in fighting crime |
| B．microbes can be found on everyone's hands. |
| C．unlike microbe fingerprints can be cleaned if people wipe them |
| D．the microbe is used as a useful tool |
What’s the best title of the passage?
| A．Microbes May Tell Who You Are | B．Scientists Say Everyone Has Microbes |
| C．Noah Fiercer Does Research Into Microbes | D．Fingerprints Help Catch Cr iminals |
