certainly__45___ in the West. In the United States,  it is___46___ to keep asking someone again and again or press something on him.

If not, they will say, “__48__” Here’s an example:  When an American is offered ___49_ by the host, and he doesn’t feel like beer, he will probably say, “No, thanks. I just don’t feel like it.

But when you go to ___55___, you had better “Do as the Romans do.”

解析試題分析:
【小題1】C。從后面的he always presses ___37___ food onto my plate…等來看,此處說的是吃飯時(shí)的禮節(jié)問題,故用dinner。
【小題2】C。當(dāng)我在中國做客時(shí),主人總是在我吃完碗里的飯時(shí)又強(qiáng)夾給我更多的食物。
【小題3】C。主人的這種做法讓我覺得很尷尬。在這里應(yīng)用系動(dòng)詞feel。taste(品嘗)雖可作系動(dòng)詞,但不符合語境。
【小題4】B。根據(jù)西方人的觀點(diǎn),吃飯時(shí)應(yīng)把盤子里的飯都吃完,否則就是不禮貌。因此,當(dāng)在中國吃飯時(shí),盡管不喜歡主人硬給盛飯的這種做法,但只好把主人硬給盛的這些飯都吃了。
【小題5】D。從語境來看,此處指“在西方把飯剩留在盤子里被認(rèn)為是不禮貌的”。good manners 意為“有禮貌的”,bad manners 意為“沒有禮貌的”。
【小題6】B。西方人認(rèn)為,把盤子里的飯吃干凈是禮貌的,而把飯留在盤子里則是不禮貌的。leave 在此意為“留下,剩余”。
【小題7】B。動(dòng)詞辨析。A介意B注意C聽說D通知;“我”在一個(gè)美國人舉行的宴會(huì)上所看到的一個(gè)中國人的做法。
【小題8】B。從上下文可知,此處說的是“我”在一個(gè)美國人舉行的宴會(huì)上所看到的一個(gè)中國人的做法,即他經(jīng)常拒絕別人讓他吃的食物或飲料,盡管他很餓或很渴。
【小題9】C。前面說的是 food or drink,這里的 hungry 應(yīng)與 thirsty 相對。
【小題10】C。前面提到的“在飯桌上拒絕別人”的做法,在中國是有禮貌的,但這在西方確實(shí)是不禮貌的,前后形成對比。此句補(bǔ)充完整為:…but it is certainly not good manners in the West.
【小題11】A。由上下文可知,在美國不停地一遍遍地問人家或把東西強(qiáng)加給他人是不禮貌的。
【小題12】A。從下文的“如果他們想要東西,他們就要;如果不想要,就說‘不,謝謝’”等可知,這里說的是美國人很“直接”。direct 意為“直接的”,indirect 意為“間接的”。
【小題13】C。從下文舉的例子來看,當(dāng)他們不想要某樣?xùn)|西時(shí),美國人常直接說 No, thanks。
【小題14】B。從下句 and he doesn’t feel like beer, he will probably say… 來看,這里說的是“主人給美國人啤酒喝時(shí)……”。
【小題15】C。前面說“不,謝謝。我不喜歡它。如果有 Pepsi-Cola 的話,就給我來點(diǎn)它吧”。take 在這里是“喝”的意思。
【小題16】B。前面舉例說明美國人的一些做法,即“這就是美國人的做法”。 what 在此引導(dǎo)表語從句。
【小題17】C。本文談?wù)摰木褪侵袊伺c美國人在餐桌上的禮儀問題,故此處應(yīng)選 Americans。
【小題18】B。根據(jù)上面的 Honesty is the best policy 可知,此處說的是“但是在一些國家謙虛也許是比誠實(shí)更重要的”。
【小題19】D。本文談?wù)摰氖橇?xí)慣問題,故用 customs。habits 說的是個(gè)人習(xí)慣,不符合語境。
【小題20】B。由 but 可知此處說的是如果你到美國,就最好“入鄉(xiāng)隨俗”,亦即按美國的風(fēng)俗做。
考點(diǎn):考查文化類完型填空
點(diǎn)評:本文說的是中國與美國的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣問題。首先說的是“我”在中國的經(jīng)歷,對中國主人“勸飯”的做法不理解,有時(shí)覺得很尷尬;接著又通過在宴會(huì)上的例子說明在中國和美國哪些做法是禮貌的,并說要“入鄉(xiāng)隨俗”。

科目:高中英語 來源:2010年鹽城南洋中學(xué)高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語卷 題型:閱讀理解

Having driven almost thirty hours, I decided to stay in South Carolina for a few days. The next morning, I purchased a three-day fishing license and bait (餌料) before heading to the lake.

Opening my trunk, I carefully took out my fishing gear (用具), put it on the lake’s edge, baited up and began to fish.

       “Good morning,” said someone, walking up from behind me.

       Turning around, I saw a game warden (獵場管理員) with a clip-board.

       “Good morning,” I said, nodding my head.

      “Catch any fish?” he asked.

       “No sir, just relaxing and killing time.”

       “Can I see your fishing license?”

       I handed him the license I had purchased at the bait shop.

       “Can I see your driver’s license, too?” he requested.

       “I see the name on the driver’s license is spelled Kiser and the name on the fishing license is Kaiser,” said the warden.

       “The gentleman at the bait shop must have written it wrong,” I told him.

       “Well, I’m afraid I’ll have to write you up for fishing with an invalid license and take away your fishing gear.”

       “You’ve got to be kidding,” I responded, with a surprised look on my face.

       Sure enough I was written up and my fishing gear taken away. I was told that I would have to pay a fine and that my stuff would be sold at auction(拍賣).

       I stood there almost in tears as he drove away. Those rods and reels were very special to me. I had used them over twenty years, fishing with my friends, who were now all dead.

       After returning home in Georgia, I telephoned South Carolina trying to explain the situation, but no one would listen. I was told that the Department of Fish and Game had a “zero tolerance” for fishing and hunting violations. Finally, in tears I paid the fine and gave up the fight.

       Nine months later, I received a letter. I had no idea who it was from as there was no return address. On a plain piece of notebook paper was written “Auction for the Department of Fish and Game held this Saturday at 11:00 am.”

       On Saturday, at six in the morning I headed to South Carolina. By ten o’clock I had found the auction. There were numerous boats and piles upon piles of fishing equipment. All at once, there it was—my wonderful stuff all thrown in a pile as if it was worth nothing.

       As the auction began I took my seat. In my wallet was twenty-seven dollars. For more than an hour I waited for my property to be brought to the auction block.

       “We have three rods and reels here. I guess we will sell this as a unit,” said the auctioneer.

       “50 dollars,” yelled someone in the crowd.

       “51 dollars,” yelled another man.

       I rose from my seat and walked out of the auction.

       “66 dollars,” I heard as the bidding continued.

       “100 dollars,” came another bid. The auction became silent.

       “100 dollars once, 100 dollars twice, 100 dollars three times. Sold for 100 dollars,” went the auctioneer.

I walked to my truck, got in and just sat there. Suddenly I heard something hit the side of my truck. Turning around, I saw the back of a man putting my three rods and reels into my truck. It was the same game warden who wrote me the ticket almost a year ago!

       As I got out of the truck he stuck out his hand and said, “I wasn’t wrong. It’s the law that is wrong.

       I shook his hand, thanked him and drove away. I cried as I crossed the South Carolina Georgia state line.

1. Who wrote a letter to the writer telling him about the auction?

A. The Department of Fish and Game.                   B. The game warden.

C. A person unmentioned in the passage.                 D. The auction organizers.  

2.Why did the writer walk out of the auction while it was going on?

   A. He realized he was unable to get back his fishing gear.

   B. He was too nervous to stay inside till the auction ended.

   C. He couldn’t bear hearing people selling his fishing gear.

   D. He knew the game warden was waiting for him outside.

3.What did the game warden mean by saying “It’s the law that is wrong”?

A. It didn’t make any sense to prohibit people from fishing freely in South Carolina.

B. The writer did break the law by fishing with an invalid license whatever the reason.

C. The writer should have been allowed a chance to explain and get his things back.

D. The auction should not have been held to sell the boats and fishing equipment.
