Task 1

Washington was the first city in history to be created solely for the purpose of governing.

Following the Revolution, members of Congress had hotly debated the questions of a permanent

home for themselves and for other departments. In 1790, George Washington was asked to select a

site

for

the

newly

designed

federal

district

.

Not

much

to

anyone’s

surprise

but

to

the

disappointment of many, he chose a piece of land on the banks of the Potomac River a few miles

upstream from his beloved plantation Mount Vernon.

The District of Columbia (Washington) was taken in part from Virginia and in part from

Maryland. At the time it was laid out, its hundred square miles consisted of gently

rolling hills

with heavy woods, a number of streams and much land along the Potomac River; There is now a

section of Washington that is commonly referred to as Foggy Bottom; that section had the same

nickname a hundred and eight years ago. Two port cities, Alexandria and Georgetown, lied within

sight of the new capital. So it was easy to go by ship to the most important cities of the new nation

from the new capital --- Charlestown, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Portsmouth and also to

the far-off ports of England and the European Continent.

For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A

manners

and

to

make

your

stay

in

a

Chinese host

’

s home happier, though you will be forgiven if you have no knowledge of what they

are.

Never stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl, since that signal usually appears on the

funeral and is deemed extremely impolite to the host and seniors present.

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. The proper way is to make it direct

outward from the table.

Don

t tap on your bowl with your chopsticks, since that will be deemed insult to the host or

the chef.

fish

skeleton from the lower half of the fish will usually be performed by the host or a waiter. Some

people may (superstitiously, perhaps) deem that it will ensure bad luck and a fishing boat might

capsize if you do so.
