Question

【題目】 Living in a different culture can be a both exciting and challenging (挑戰(zhàn)性的) experience. You have to lean different cultures and try to get used to them. Let’s share some cultural differences between China and the US to help understand each other.

Pay (隱私) — Chinese people talk about subjects such as ages and income (收入), which Americans think is not polite.

Families — In China, elders are traditionally treated with respect (尊重). In America, the goal of the family is to encourage independence (獨立), especially that of the children. Unlike the Chinese, few elder Americans live with their children.

Friends — Chinese people have different understanding of “friends”. In China, “friendship” means a lifelong relationship between friends who think it’s their duty to give each other any help. Americans always call people they meet friends.

Money — The Chinese like saving money. They are always careful when they are planning to spend money. It is different in America, where far fewer families are saving money.

Education — Chinese people value education and jobs more than Americans do, who pay more attention to good nature instead.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列各題

【1】Who often talks about ages and income, Chinese people or Americans?

【2】In China, many elders live with their children, don’t they?

【3】Do Americans have the same understanding of “friends” as Chinese people?

【5】What does the passage mainly talk about?

【解析】

本篇文章難度適中，主要講述中美文化中的一些差別。包括隱私、家庭、朋友、錢以及教育等。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Chinese people talk about subjects such as ages and income (收入), which Americans think is not polite可知，中國人談?wù)撃挲g或收入等主題，而美國人認(rèn)為這是不禮貌的，所以中國人經(jīng)常談?wù)撃挲g和收入，故填Chinese people。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Unlike the Chinese, few elder Americans live with their children可知，不像中國人，幾乎沒有年長的美國人和他們的孩子住在一起，所以中國的許多老人和孩子住在一起，故填Yes. /Yes, they do。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Chinese people have different understanding of “friends”. In China, “friendship” means a lifelong relationship between friends who think it’s their duty to give each other any help. Americans always call people they meet friends可知，中國人對朋友有不同的理解。在中國，友誼意味著朋友之間的終身關(guān)系，他們認(rèn)為互相幫助是他們的責(zé)任。美國人總是把他們遇到的人稱為朋友。所以中國人和美國人關(guān)于朋友的理解不一樣。故填No. /No, they don’t。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Chinese people value education and jobs more than Americans do, who pay more attention to good nature instead可知，中國人比美國人更重視教育和工作，而美國人更注重良好的天性。所以中國人更加注重教育和工作，故填(Chinese people value) education and jobs (more than Americans do)。

【5】主旨大意題。根據(jù)Let’s share some cultural differences between China and the US to help understand each other以及下文中的Pay，Families，Friends，Money以及Education可知，主要講述中美兩國文化差異，故填(It talks about) some cultural differences between China and the US/ America。
