【題目】 I was in the store with Mom and baby Lucy. I was looking at the pictures in a pattern(圖案) book, trying to choose what to wear for Halloween.

I wanted to be a princess(公主) but I didn’t get a chance to ask Mom to help me find that page. She was busy. All the women were around Lucy’s pushchair. Mom wasn’t even looking at me. Then Lucy cried(哭) and Mom asked me, “Mary, do you make up your mind?”

I looked down at the book and saw a picture of a kid in a banana costume(服裝). I pointed at the “banana”. Mom bought me the banana pattern and a pea-pod pattern for Lucy. When Mom finished making my costume, I knew I had made a mistake. “If I wear the big banana costume to the Halloween party, everyone will laugh at me,” I thought.

When we finally walked to the party, everyone smiled at cute baby Lucy who was on my mother’s back. And when they saw my costume, they smiled, too. Some of them told me I was cute. I guessed people liked bananas. I learned that it didn’t make me upset when people laughed. They thought I was funny in a good way. And guess what! There were three princesses and I was the only “banana” at the party.

【1】What does the underlined word “chance” mean?

A.交易B.能力C.機(jī)會(huì)D.勇氣

【2】Why did NOT Mary’s mom help her in the store?

【4】How might Mary feel before she went to the Halloween party?

A.Excited.B.Tired.C.Happy.D.Upset.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】B

【3】C

【4】D

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要講Mary和媽媽、妹妹Lucy一起去商場(chǎng)挑選萬圣節(jié)前夕的服裝，她想扮成公主，但最終選了個(gè)香蕉服裝，她覺得人們將會(huì)笑話她，但卻發(fā)現(xiàn)聚會(huì)上有三個(gè)公主，只有她一個(gè)香蕉。

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在語(yǔ)境“I wanted to be a princess but I didn’t get a chance to ask Mom to help me find that page. She was busy.”可知媽媽很忙，Mary找不到機(jī)會(huì)讓她幫忙找那一頁(yè)，chance是“機(jī)會(huì)”的意思。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第2段中“She was busy. All the women were around Lucy’s pushchair.”可知媽媽不幫助Mary是因?yàn)樗τ谡疹?/span>Lucy。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第1、2段中“I was looking at the pictures in a pattern book, trying to choose what to wear for Halloween … Then Lucy cried …”可知當(dāng)Lucy哭的時(shí)候Mary正在從圖畫書中選萬圣節(jié)前夜的服裝圖案。故選C。

【4】推理判斷題。Excited激動(dòng)的；Tired疲勞的；Happy高興的；Upset沮喪的。根據(jù)第3段中“If I wear the big banana costume to the Halloween party, everyone will laugh at me”可知作者覺得選香蕉圖案可能被人嘲笑，結(jié)合最后一段中“I learned that it didn’t make me upset when people laughed.”可推測(cè)在去萬圣夜聚會(huì)之前Mary應(yīng)該是很沮喪的。故選D。

【題目】For many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. In fact, they are not really bad guests, because the guest-host relationship in China is quite different from that in western (西方的) countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person’s home, there is always fruit on the table, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is common for a guest.

My wife’s mother doesn’t smoke. When I see some guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker (不抽煙的人), I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them, but I must know that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In America, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their home. At least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke?” But don’t be surprised if they say: “No, you can’t smoke.”

Guests in China also have some special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon.

Luckily, my wife is a Chinese. Whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to host is not always needed in my country. So if you invite foreign guests to your home, don’t be too surprised if they don’t bring you a gift. And if western hosts invite you to their home, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating(對(duì)待) you is not what you expected.

【1】When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often .

A.buys some fruit

B.takes a cup of tea

C.feels welcome

【2】If the a guest wants to smoke in the writer’s house, the writer will probably say “ .”

A.Let’s smoke together

B.It’s OK, if you smoke here

C.Sorry, you can’t smoke here

【3】What does the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?

A.get used toB.look forward toC.reply to

【4】Which of the following is true according to paragraph four?

A.Bringing a gift when visiting is popular in China.

B.Chinese has more habits than people in other countries.

C.It’s necessary to give a gift if we visit a western family.

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

A.Foreigners should learn from Chinese.

B.Hosts must do things in the guests’ way.

C.People should understand cultural difference.

【題目】 Once there was a poor old man called Colonel Harland Sanders. He lived in a small house and had an old car. He was living off the social security(社會(huì)保障金).
