Embroidery (刺绣) has a long history and can date back to the Warring States period in China. Embroidery is very popular in many countries such as China, India, and Japan. Embroidery is the handicraft (手工艺) of decorating fabric (衣料) or other materials with needles and thread or yarn.

Embroidery is available with a wide variety of thread or yarn colour.

Once I walked on the street and tried to find my way to my hotel. I found that I was lost. So I stopped, took my map out and began searching for the right way. Then a lady came to me with a friendly smile. I wondered if I was in her way. Before I was about to stand aside (到旁边), the lady asked, "Do you need any help? I can show you the way." I was very surprised. In China, most people won't give you a hand unless you ask. I said yes to her. She carefully gave the directions to me. I was touched by her selfless behaviour and warm attitude (态度).
After experiencing many such things in the USA, I thought about the situation in China. My teacher in China told me that several years ago he travelled to another city by himself. After a whole day's hard work at a factory, he bought a pancake at a stall (货摊). But he later found that it was bad. The seller cheated (欺骗) him. Since then, he always checks the food he buys on the street. Even today we often see news that shows we don't trust strangers.
Chinese people are more vigilant to strangers because they are afraid to get hurt. But many American people believe that if you love others first, you will be loved. I think we should learn from this attitude and rebuild the trust among people.
(1)、What happened to the writer according to Paragraph 2?A、She couldn't find her way to the hotel. B、A thief stole her purse. C、She fell down on the street. D、She had a fight with a lady.(2)、How did the lady help the writer?A、She phoned the hotel for help. B、She gave the directions carefully. C、She gave the writer a ride. D、She went to the hotel with the writer.(3)、What does the writer want to tell us with her teacher's experience?A、Don't believe strangers in China. B、Don't buy food at street stalls. C、Chinese people easily get hurt by others. D、Chinese people usually don't trust strangers.(4)、From the passage, we learn that we should.A、learn from what Americans do B、give more love and trust to strangers C、not trust anyone we don't know D、open our eyes and see things clearly(5)、What does the underlined word mean in the passage?A、警觉的 B、充满敌意的 C、友好的 D、粗陋的三、完形填空
