【题目】 Living in a foreign country is fun but it isn’t always easy. There are many differences between traditions, and sometimes they can c1 a lot of embarrassment (尴尬).

When I first arrived in San Francisco, I had a h2 time understanding some of the American ways of doing things. Once I went to v3 an American friend with a gift. To my surprise, when I p4 the gift to her, she accepted it with just one hand and opened it i5. But in China we accept a gift with both hands and we open it later! What’s worse, after a nice evening, I finished my cola and got ready to 16. As soon as we s7 goodbye, my friend went back to her room closing the door behind her. It made me f8 that I was not really welcome.

Later, I came to learn about the differences. I think differences in traditions may be a way of making life i 9. If we all did everything in the same way, how boring life would be! So learning to understand and respect (尊重) d10 is what life is all about.

【答案】

4passed

8feel

9interesting

10differences

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了“我”来到美国后受到的文化冲击,然而“我”也深知,正是这些多样的文化才让生活有趣了起来,我们都应该理解和尊重这种文化差异。

1句意:传统之间有很多差异,有时它们会导致很多尴尬。

根据题干中的differences“差异”和embarrassment“尴尬可知差异会“导致”尴尬,结合首字母提示c提示可确定答案为cause“导致”,前面为情态动词,直接填动词原形即可,故答案为cause

2句意:当我第一次到达旧金山时,我很难理解一些美国人的做事方式。

本文讲的是传统差异带来的影响,根据题干中“first arrived”可推断作者首次到美国,肯定对很多东西“难以理解”,结合首字母h提示,此处填hard“困难的”,故答案为hard

3句意:一次,我带着礼物去拜访一个美国朋友。

根据题干中“with a gift”和首字母v提示可推断作者是去visit“拜访”某人。此处直接填visit构成to visit的动词不定式,故答案为visit

4句意:令我惊讶的是,当我将礼物递给她时,她只用了一只手就接受了,并立即将其打开。

根据题干中accepted“接受”和首字母p提示可推断作者先是去把礼物pass“递给”对方。这件事发生在过去所以用一般过去时,pass要填其过去式passed,故答案为passed

5句意:令我惊讶的是,当我将礼物递给她时,她只用了一只手就接受了,并立即将其打开。

根据“To my surprise”和后文“But in China we accept a gift with both hands and we open it later! ”提示可知,此处应填later“随后;之后的反义词来表现中美两国对拆礼物时间的不同传统,结合首字母提示i可知此处填immediately“立即地”副词来修饰opened动词,故答案为immediately

6句意:更糟糕的是,经过一个愉快的夜晚,我喝完了可乐,准备离开了。

根据题干中“after a nice evening”时间状语提示可推断一个愉快的夜晚过后作者需要“离开”了,get ready to do sth.“准备好做某事”,结合首字母l提示,故答案为leave

7句意:我们一道别,我的朋友就回到她的房间,关上了她身后的门。

根据宾语goodbye和首字母s提示可知谓语动词为say,时态为一般过去时,所以用say的过去式said,故答案为said

8句意:这让我感到我并不那么受欢迎。

首字母提示为f,根据“I was not really welcome. ”“我不是那么受欢迎”可知这是作者“我”的内心感受,故填feel,构成make sb. feel that的固定句式,故答案为feel

9句意:我认为传统的差异可能是使生活变得有趣的一种方式。

首字母提示为i,根据后文boring life“无聊的生活”可推断作者认为正是传统的差异性使得生活变得interesting“有趣”,故答案为interesting

10句意:因此,学会理解和尊重差异就是生活的全部。

首字母提示为d,全文一直都在聊传统文化中的differences“差异”,最后结尾也不例外,根据前文可知作者认为差异是使得生活有趣的方式之一,那么尊重和理解这种“differences”是很重要的,差异为可数名词,此处用复数,故答案为differences

My name is Ann. I would like to share my volunteering experience in Sue Ryder. I worked as a volunteer in 2013 because I wanted to do something to help others. I called some charity shops(慈善商店)to ask if they needed volunteers. Although I didn't mind where I volunteered, I was glad that one of the Sue Ryder shops said yes. Sue Ryder was a charity very close to my heart because volunteers from Sue Ryder once cared for my dad in the hospital.

Volunteering in the shop helped me know what shop work was like and I was surprised to find how much I really enjoyed doing it. I also found how important the public(民众)were. Lots of people gave us things they didn't need for the shops to sell. In this way Sue Ryder raised money to care for people with life-changing illness. I always left the charity shop late, because I knew how important the work of Sue Ryder was.

Another thing I enjoyed about volunteering was talking with other volunteers in the shop. They were friendly and helpful. I really improved my teamwork skills by volunteering.

I worked in the shop from late April to early August. I learned many things from it and I'm sure they will be useful in the future.

【题目】阅读下面短文,从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。A

Restaurants in the USA

Steve's Pizza
So many pizza stores in South Beach, but ask a Miami Beach local where to get the best pizza and they'll tell you about Steve's. This is New York–style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients (佐料). New stores of Steve's are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.
Opening hours: 11am-3am

Cattleman's Steakhouse
This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local people would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you'll see everything from rabbits to buffalo, then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.
Opening hours: 5pm-10pm

Absolute Baking & Café
The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it's made from scratch, as are the organic breads. And lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don't miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.
Opening hours: 7am-2pm

Walt's Wharf
Everybody's favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA), Walt's packs them in on weekends. You can't order your dinner (though they're accepted for lunch), but it's worth the wait for the seafood and steaks in the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain's chairs.
Opening hours: 11am-3:30pm


(1)According to the passage, Steve's Pizza .
A.has new stores all over Miami
B.lies on Miami Beach

"USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?" We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students.
It's true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs.
Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.
Students must also learn to live without parents' care and deal with all kinds of things they haven't had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?
We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China.Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal(金牌) at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice(选择).
A. Liu Xiang is a good example.
B. They want to learn about the world.
C. Let's talk about some foreign customs.
D. But there are problems that should be considered(考虑).
E. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.
