The caveman says he likes his home,but also admits that he looks forward to getting his pension in three years.He says he's in good health and can definitely survive another three years,when he will actually be getting two pensions,one from Bosnia and another from Germany.He hopes to be able to finally afford a proper home.

9.I stopped at my bank last week to deposit a check.I could have used the ATM,but I am so glad that I didn't because if I had,I probably would not have met Harold.

I had the honor of being elected chief of my tribe(部落). With the title came great responsibility. It was my job to make peace with the Maori Tamaki tribe, whose village we visited. Their warriors leapt from a canoe and faced us down with fierce growls, bulging eyes and much swishing of sticks. They laid a palm frond on the ground and, as head honcho, I was compelled to accept this peace offering by picking it up, then touching noses with their chief. “Kia ora”, he said, welcoming us into the woodland home of his people.

My “tribe” was my New Zealand tour group, who had forced me into being their leader. We’d been warned that the ceremony was a serious occasion and that to laugh or even smile would be considered rude to the Tamaki. After that it was non-stop fun as they showed their ancient customs and I received instruction in performing the haka, the war dance by the All Blacks rugby team.

Then they pulled our dinner of lamb, beef and vegetables out of the ground. It had been slow-cooked in the heat that simmers just below the surface in the geothermal(地?zé)岬? area of North Island, a Maori tradition known as a hangi that goes back an extremely long period of time.

Obviously, this form of it is put on for tourists but it was hugely enjoyable. The journey back to the hotel was alone worth the effort, our hilarious Maori elder driver being deserving of his own television show. “The wheels on the bus go round and round,” he got us singing, while he circuited(繞……環(huán)行) a roundabout three times.

A couple of days from the end of my trip, there was still something missing, a New Zealand icon I yearned to see to make my grand tour complete. Riding over a hill, there it was – Aotearoa. The Maori name for New Zealand translates as “Land of the long white cloud”. Can I say “Kia ora, Aotearoa?” You bet I can.

1.Which refers to the Maori cooking custom?

A. Kia ora. B. Haka.

C. Tamaki. D. Hangi.

2.What does the author think of the driver?

A. He was good at singing.

B. He made the journey memorable.

C. He was not familiar with the road.

D. He performed well on a TV show.

3.What is the best title for the text?

A. A Taste of Maori Culture.

B. Hello, New Zealand

C. The Honor of Being a tribe Chief

D. The Best of New Zealand
