In a surprising result, the No. 69 Middle School girls' football team yesterday beat their school's boys' team. The boys' team often helped the girls with their training (訓練). They had never lost to the girls before, but this time the girls beat them 4 — 3.
After the game, Wu Nai, head of the boys' team, was very unhappy. "We all thought this would be an easy game," he said. "We never thought a team of girls could beat us. This is the saddest day of my life. "
But Mr Hu, the boys' PE teacher, said he thought the girls should win. "The boys were too confident (自信)," he said. "I told them before the match that they needed to play well. They all thought that girls' football was a joke. Now they know better. They didn't play care­fully, and they lost."
The match had started well for the boys. After 30 minutes, they were winning 2 - 0. Their best player, Lu Ming, scored in the thirtieth minute. Earlier, the mid-field player, Ma Zhengquan, had scored the first goal in only the second minute of the match.
After the first half hour, the boys seemed to become too confident. At first, the girls had felt a bit nervous (緊張), but then they became more and more confident. Just before half time, Li Xiaolin made the score 2 - 1.
In the second half, the boys were the first to score. It was from Lu Ming. After that the boys became lazy, but the girls kept on working hard. Hao Meiling scored in the 68th minute, to make the score 3 — 2. Then Li Xiaolin scored twice in the last six minutes to make the last score 4-3. It was a surprising finish.

Except for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. There's no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (賄賂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we don't see the need for presents.
Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn't. I don't often re­member a friend's birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I'd get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland — won't go wrong, except to government employees (政府職員) who can't be given presents.
You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, "It's so nice. Thanks…" when you get Christ­mas or birthday presents.
You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you're
never asked to.  Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.
At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year- doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders— anyone who has often helped us.
【小題1】   What does "close friends" mean in the passage?

A． The friends who are very kind.

B． The friends who live close to each other.

C． The friends who were once classmates.

D． The friends who you like most.

【小題2】  What kind of presents don't Americans usually open in front of the givers?

A．The small presents.	B． Christmas or birthday presents.
C． The expensive presents.	D． The presents for dinner party.

【小題3】           Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas?

A． To pay them.	B． To help them.
C． To thank them.	D． To make them work harder.

【小題4】   Which of the following do you think is right?

A． American business people don't want presents because they are rich enough.

B． The writer of this passage must be an American.

C． Everyone must give presents to one's family and friends at Christmas.

D． Government employees can get little presents from a foreigner.

【小題5】   What is the main idea of the passage?

A． Present-giving in the United States.

B． Customs (習俗) in the United States.

C． American people and present-giving.

D． When and how to give presents.
