Question

【題目】 Japanese fans who watched their national team be defeated by the Ivory Coast on Saturday showed it is possible to lose graciously (優(yōu)雅地), when they stayed behind after the match to help clean up.

Despite seeing Japan's Blue Samurais lose 2-1 against the Ivory Coast' s national team at the Arena Perambuco in Recife, the Japanese audience armed with plastic bags searched their side of the stadium and gathered up dropped litter. While gathering waste after a sporting event is customary in Japan, the audience' s actions came as a shock to football fans from other countries.

This isn't the first time the Japanese have taken trash outside the stadium. The 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France was the first ever World Cup that Japan had qualified for. After their first group game against Argentina, the Japanese fans gave the world a lesson in politeness and respect by actually cleaning the football stadium seats. They picked up all the trash around them whether it was theirs or not. They then walked out and threw the trash in the garbage cans before leaving.

The all-around cleanliness of Japanese large cities comes as a culture shock to people coming from other big cities in the world. This tidiness is not due to millions of dollars spent on street cleaners and "Let's clean-up our city" campaigns. It's not due to effective public works or community service. It's due to one simple thing: They don't throw their rubbish on the floor. This unique and rare concept allows for both huge cities and the countryside to stay neat and tidy.

To reinforce this behavior, the common signs in Japan ask people to take their litter home with them. Then, to reinforce the sign, hey usually have no garbage cans in the parks. So when faced with the choice of throwing their garbage on the ground or keeping it with them, they keep it. They don’t need a “Don't Litter” or Keep Japan beautiful” sign. They have been doing it their whole lives and are used to taking their garbage with them.

【4】C

【解析】

這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了日本球迷令世人敬佩的行為——無(wú)論身處何地都隨身帶走自己的垃圾，并說(shuō)明了日本對(duì)待清潔的觀念使得清潔已經(jīng)成為一種慣例，日本人也常常將垃圾主動(dòng)帶走，而不是丟在地上。

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段This isn't the first time the Japanese have taken trash outside the stadium. The 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France was the first ever World Cup that Japan had qualified for. After their first group game against Argentina, the Japanese fans gave the world a lesson in politeness and respect by actually cleaning the football stadium seats. They picked up all the trash around them whether it was theirs or not. They then walked out and threw the trash in the garbage cans before leaving.可知這已經(jīng)不是日本人第一次在體育場(chǎng)外撿垃圾了。1998年在法國(guó)舉行的國(guó)際足聯(lián)世界杯是日本第一次有資格參加世界杯。在與阿根廷的第一場(chǎng)小組賽之后，日本球迷給世界上上了一節(jié)禮貌和尊重的課，他們真的清理了足球場(chǎng)的座位。他們把周圍不管是不是他們的垃圾都撿了起來(lái)。然后他們走出去，在離開之前，把垃圾扔進(jìn)垃圾桶里。由此可推知，第三段的故事主要是為了說(shuō)明了日本球迷有打掃體育場(chǎng)的習(xí)慣。故選B。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中It's not due to effective public works or community service. It's due to one simple thing: They don't throw their rubbish on the floor. This unique and rare concept allows for both huge cities and the countryside to stay neat and tidy.可知這并不是因?yàn)橛行У墓�共工程或社區(qū)服務(wù)。原因很簡(jiǎn)單：他們不把垃圾扔在地上。這種獨(dú)特而罕見的理念使得大城市和鄉(xiāng)村都能保持整潔。由此可知，日本大城市的清潔已經(jīng)成為一種慣例。故選A。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段To reinforce this behavior, the common signs in Japan ask people to take their litter home with them. Then, to reinforce the sign, hey usually have no garbage cans in the parks. So when faced with the choice of throwing their garbage on the ground or keeping it with them, they keep it. They don’t need a “Don't Litter” or Keep Japan beautiful” sign. They have been doing it their whole lives and are used to taking their garbage with them.可知為了加強(qiáng)這種行為，日本常見的標(biāo)志是要求人們把垃圾帶回家。然后，為了強(qiáng)調(diào)這個(gè)標(biāo)志，嘿，公園里通常沒有垃圾桶。所以，當(dāng)他們面臨把垃圾扔在地上還是隨身攜帶的選擇時(shí)，他們會(huì)選擇帶著。他們不需要“不要亂扔垃圾”或“保持日本美麗”的標(biāo)志。他們一輩子都是這樣做的，也習(xí)慣了隨身攜帶垃圾。由此可知，日本人認(rèn)為把垃圾帶走是正常的。故選D。

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段Japanese fans who watched their national team be defeated by the Ivory Coast on Saturday showed it is possible to lose graciously (優(yōu)雅地), when they stayed behind after the match to help clean up.可知上周六，日本球迷觀看了本國(guó)國(guó)家隊(duì)被科特迪瓦隊(duì)擊敗的比賽，賽后他們留下來(lái)幫助清理場(chǎng)地，這表明他們也可以優(yōu)雅地輸?shù)舯荣悺Ｒ约暗谌�段�?/span>After their first group game against Argentina, the Japanese fans gave the world a lesson in politeness and respect by actually cleaning the football stadium seats.可知在與阿根廷的第一場(chǎng)小組賽之后，日本球迷給世界上上了一節(jié)禮貌和尊重的課，他們真的清理了足球場(chǎng)的座位。由此可推知，作者對(duì)日本球迷的態(tài)度可能是尊重的。故選C。
