When her five daughters were young. Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity(團結(jié)). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However. Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually(最終)the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains. “Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.”
Their expanding business became a large corporation(企業(yè)) in 1996, with three generations of An working together. Now the An' corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.
(1)Helene tied several chopsticks together to show.
A.the strength of family unity

(2)We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family.

Helping and working with others can have a good effect on your overall psychological well-being. Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection to another person. Working with pets and other animals can also improve mood and reduce stress and anxiety. Volunteering keeps you in regular contact with others and helps you develop a solid support system, which in turn protects you against depression.
By measuring hormones and brain activity, researchers have discovered that being helpful to others delivers inner pleasure. Human beings are hard-wired to give to others.
Volunteering increases self-confidence. You are doing good for others and the community, which provides a natural sense of accomplishment.And the better you feel about yourself, the more likely you are to have a positive view of your life and future goals.
Studies have found that those who volunteer have a lower mortality rate than those who do not. Older volunteers tend to walk more, find it easier to cope with everyday tasks, are less likely to develop high blood pressure, and have better thinking skills.

【題目】One of the main points of traveling is to relax and take a break from your normal daily life. But the truth is, we’re not always free to do what we like when traveling to a foreign country, and a US tourist learned that the hard way.
On Aug 12, the unnamed 41 -year-old man was beaten by a passerby after he was seen giving Nazi salutes (納粹禮) again and again on a street in Dresden, Germany. Ever since the end of World War Ⅱ, Germany has strict laws forbidding the Nazi salute, as well as other symbols of Nazism.
In fact, most countries have their own taboos (禁忌).If you plan to travel overseas, it’s best to get familiar with these taboos before you start touring local sites. Here are some examples.
Singapore
You can get fined for a lot of things in Singapore, including feeding birds, spitting (吐痰), smoking in public, not flushing (沖) a public toilet after you use it, and eating or drinking on buses or trains.
Japan
You’re not supposed to wear your shoes in someone’s house, but you’re not supposed to take your shoes off outside the house either. Instead, there’s a small area inside the door called a “genkan” which is where your shoes should go. If you’re still not sure where that is, pay attention to what other people do and do the same.
France
French people don’t like it when you talk about money. It’s OK if you say that you want to quit a job because you aren’t paid enough money, but you should never say the exact amount. Money is considered to be a “dirty” topic in France.
【1】Why was the US tourist was beaten in Germany?
A. He was beaten by mistake. B. He was not welcome in Germany.
C. He acted improperly in Germany. D. He quarraled with a local person.
【2】Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. Eating or drinking on buses is acceptable in Singapore.
B. You should take your shoes off outside the house in a Japanese house.
C. You should keep your shoes on in a Japanese house.
D. It is impolite to ask a Franceman’s salary.
【3】Which column is this passage most likely to be taken from in a newspaper?
A. Campus Life B. Discovery
C. Science Study D. Star Stories
