Question

【題目】

The label(標(biāo)簽), Made in China, is one that is becoming increasing common in shopping centers all over the world.

In the United States, shoppers at Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest retailer(零售商), have a wide selection of products mostly produced in China. The large amount of Chinese imports have created a large selection of goods in other countries as people begin to buy more and more products made in China. These goods are even widely available in other Asian nations, where Chinese-made goods are quite popular. Chinese brand names are also becoming more well-known outside China.

When Chinese Americans visit family and friends in their homeland, gifts from the U.S. are a must. But TVs and fashionable clothes aren't rare any more, and anything 'Made in China' shouldn’t be considered in any case.

"When I decide to visit my family members in China, I will have a big headache. What should I buy for them? They may not all speak English, but everyone in China knows those three words," a Chinese American said. "When they see the label 'Made in China,' they will think, 'Why do you send me this?' "

The development of China has surprised the world with its growth. As a result, the other countries are beginning to try to reduce Chinese goods with the use of taxes(稅)and import restrictions. However, the development on the Chinese economy still affects the world in many ways.

隨著中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展，現(xiàn)在“中國(guó)制造”這個(gè)標(biāo)簽在世界各大購(gòu)物中心已經(jīng)非常普遍，中國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)對(duì)世界的影響力越來(lái)越大。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段中The label(標(biāo)簽), Made in China, is one that is becoming increasing common in shopping centers all over the world.可知，“中國(guó)制造”的標(biāo)簽在世界各大購(gòu)物中心變得越來(lái)越普遍，即在世界各地非常的受歡迎，故應(yīng)選C。

【2】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)文意The large amount of Chinese imports have created a large selection of goods in other countries as people begin to buy more and more products made in China.可知，人們購(gòu)買(mǎi)越來(lái)越多的中國(guó)制造的產(chǎn)品，中國(guó)的產(chǎn)品非常的受歡迎。再根據(jù)劃線(xiàn)單詞所在的句子Chinese brand names are also becoming more well-known outside China.可知，這里指的是中國(guó)的品牌的 名字也變得很有名。故可猜到brand的意思是“品牌”，故選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第四段中"When I decide to visit my family members in China, I will have a big headache. …"When they see the label 'Made in China,' they will think, 'Why do you send me this?' "可知，當(dāng)一個(gè)華裔美國(guó)人回到家鄉(xiāng)的時(shí)候，如果他們帶回去的禮物是中國(guó)制造，他們的親戚朋友就會(huì)不高興。由此可知應(yīng)選B。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段中As a result, the other countries are beginning to try to reduce Chinese goods with the use of taxes(稅)and import restrictions.可知，其他國(guó)家開(kāi)始試圖用稅收和進(jìn)口限制的方式來(lái)減少中國(guó)商品。由此可知應(yīng)選D。

【5】主旨大意題。短文的第一段即點(diǎn)明了文章的主題，根據(jù)The label(標(biāo)簽), Made in China, is one that is becoming increasing common in shopping centers all over the world.可知，這篇短文介紹的是“中國(guó)制造”這一標(biāo)簽在世界上各大購(gòu)物中心變得越來(lái)越普遍，故D選項(xiàng)與文意符合，選D。
