Passage A根据短文内容完成文后的图表，并把答案写在答题卡的相应位置。

When a very dirty, poorly dressed person kneels(跪）at your feet and puts out his hands to beg(乞讨）for a few coins，do you walk on without having a look at him or do you feel sad and hand over some money to him?

Now quite a few people will not give money to beggars. Let's look at their arguments. Firstly，some people believe that many city beggars dress up to look poor and make a living only from begging. Giving money to beggars only encourages this kind of behavior. Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer(啤酒），wine or drugs. Thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. There is no reason for losing one's sense of pride and self-dependence(自立).They should go to local government department for help.

Some people think it's right to give some money to beggars. They think that the world may be full of sad stories. People should be warm-hearted and share what they have with those who are unluckier than themselves. A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that shows the kindness of the giver, too.

It’s hard to come to any final conclusion, there are various cases(不同的情况） and we must deal with them differently.

Passage B 根据短文内容完成文后的图表，并把答案写在答题卡的相应位置。Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person．

When giving gifts，sometimes color is important．For example，for many Chinese people around the world，red is a lucky color，and people often like to wrap（包装）gifts in this color．However，do you know that in Korea（朝鲜），red is a color of death? That is why you should not wrap gifts in this color if you are giving a gift to a Korean person．

What about western countries? In western countries，the color of wrapping paper is not really important．But color does matter when giving flowers，especially roses．You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol（象征）of love．You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．You could also send pink roses as girls to say thank you．

What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well，one thing you should keep in mind is the person's religion（宗教）．When choosing a gift for a Muslim（回教徒的）or Jewish（犹太族的）friend，you should never get food including pork，or things made from pigskin．Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol（酒）．

根据短文内容简要回答下面问题。

71．In which country do people think red is the color of death?

72．How can we show our friendship to the western friends?

73．Can we give a Muslim friend a bottle of alcohol as a gift?

74．How many colors are mentioned（提到）in this passage?
