　　阅读下面的短文，根据其内容完成填空题(1)至(5)题。并将答案填写在第II卷相应的位置上。

　　Amanda is an American filmmaker and actress. She came to China three years ago to study Performance at Beijing Film Academy. Last month, she moved to Japan to study Economics at the University of Tokyo. On June 10th, she returned to the USA. She chatted with her parents about the cultural differences between the two countries.

　　“The people in both countries are very friendly to foreigner. But they have different cultures. For example, when I spoke Chinese in China, the people there always showed surprise on their faces. But when I came to Japan, I found it was opposite. Most local people there hoped I could talk with them in Japanese, though I was not good at it,” she said.

　　Amanda thought this might have something to do with the fact that the western group in Japan is older than the one in China. They have stayed in Japan for a long time. And most of them speak Japanese well. But Westerners in China are still quite a new group. They’re usually treated as guests and tourists.

　　Passage 1

　　Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It is a holiday for children mainly. Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside. It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack-o’-lanterns, which mean “Jack of the lantern”.

　　The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come to a new house, they say, “Trick or treat! Money or eat!” The grown-ups put treat-money or candy in their bags.

　　Passage 2

　　Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it. Perceiving goes in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses — in this case our eyes — tell us. Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how experiences perceive the world around him.
