Answer 1

分析 這篇短文告訴我們中國人與美國人的價值觀是有差異的：一個中國中學(xué)生在周末不可能做兼職；一些中國人在銀行存錢，中國父母為了讓孩子上好大學(xué)愿意做任何事情等，而美國人恰恰相反．

解答 56．B．細節(jié)題．根據(jù)第五段American parents allow their daughtersor sons to go out to have some part-time jobs in their free time or at weekends．Chinese parentsusually don't allow their children to do so in middle or high schools．，可知中國學(xué)生不可能自己做兼職工作掙錢．故選B．
57．A．細節(jié)題．根據(jù)第三段Chinese usually spend less than they have，so many of them always have money left in the bank．可知一些中國人在銀行存錢，因為他們通�；ǖ谋葥碛械纳伲�選A．
58．C．細節(jié)題．根據(jù)第三段Americans would like to spend more than they have．American kids love to make money by themselves．Chinese kids always ask their parents for money．可知文中沒有提到中國父母為什么會為了把孩子送到好大學(xué)而去做任何事情的原因，故選C．
59．A 詞義猜測題．劃線單詞"academic"的中文意思可能是學(xué)術(shù)的．根據(jù)第一段She has found many value（價值觀）differences between Chinese and Americans．和Many American girls take part in sports，dancing and singinggroups while Chinese girls take part in academic groups．可知，應(yīng)該選A．
60．D 主旨大意題．通讀全文這篇短文主要介紹了美國人和中國人不同的價值觀念可知答案，故選D．
