Answer 1

答案：A;C;D;D;B;B;A;C;B;B
解析：

(1)由上文可知，在泰國歡迎客人就用come and eat rice，所以吃泰國餐應(yīng)用動詞eat，而此句的主語是all Thai dishes。 (2)grows there very easily的原因是the climate is warm and there is much rain。 (3)根據(jù)so there is no need to use knives and forks but, instead, special spoons and forks are used.可知客人不用刀和叉來吃端上來的食物，說明它們已被切成了塊。 (4)從now there are still some people who eat this way.可知過去常常有人用手吃飯，used to do sth.意為“過去常常做某事”。 (5)根據(jù)下文的介紹，這里說的是“做這件事的特殊方式”。 (6)從下文……they only eat with their right hands.可知他們要洗的是右手。 (7)根據(jù)所給四個選項可知應(yīng)選A，即“吃飯時，不讓食物碰到掌心”。 (8)因為它們是用右手吃飯，所以飯后應(yīng)選洗手。 (9)because表示“因為”，though表示“雖然”，since表示“自從，由于”，until表示直到。根據(jù)句意“盡管每個人都有自己的飯碗，但是這些食物還是被放在一碗中共同享用”，選B。 (10)根據(jù)上題確定選B，their own bowl of rice意為“他們自己的飯碗”。
