【题目】 Alabama: Priester’s Pecans

Dessert in the South basically starts and ends with an ooey-gooey pecan(核桃) pie. Especially in Alabama, where the pecan is the official state nut. While there are plenty of farms that pick and package pecans, perhaps the most famous is Priester’s, a family-run business that’s been supplying Alabama with its favorite nuts for over seven decades.

Alaska: Salmon jerky

Forget beef jerky(肉干)in Alaska, it’s all about the salmon jerky. Home to five different species of the flavorful fish (king, red, pink, silver, and chum), the northernmost state produces nearly one-third of the wild salmon consumed around the world. Bonus: Salmon is one of the seven healthiest fish you can eat.

Arizona: Saguaro cactus

The largest cactus(仙人掌) in the United States, the saguaro cactus is found only in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. Living to be up to 200 years old, the cacti, whose flower is also the state’s flower, are generally around 30 feet tall and can grow unlimited arms. Want to see for yourself? Visit one of these 10 outstanding desert escapes in America.

California: Wine Guide

It isn’t called “Wine Country” for no reason. Northern California, specifically Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley, produce over 60,000 registered wine labels, making vino(酒类产品) the state’s most valuable agricultural product. If you’re looking for the most popular varietals(优质酿酒葡萄汁), the top two frequently planted grapes are chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon.

1How long has the Priester’s farm lasted?

A.About 7 years.B.About 30 years.

C.About 70 years.D.About 200 years.

2Which state is famous for salmon?

A.Alaska.B.Arizona.

C.Alabama.D.California.

3Where does the text probably come from?

A.A library guide.B.A news report.

C.A project handbook.D.A travel guide.

【答案】

1C

2A

3D

【解析】

这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了AlabamaAlaskaArizona以及California的特产。

1细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“…perhaps the most famous is Priester’s, a family-run business that’s been supplying Alabama with its favorite nuts for over seven decades.”可知,Priester’s是一家家族企业,70多年来一直向阿拉巴马州供应人们最喜爱的山核桃。因此可判断出Priester’s farm已经经营了大约70多年了。故选C项。

2细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Home to five different species of the flavorful fish, the northernmost state produces nearly one-third of the wild salmon consumed around the world.”可知,这个最北部的州产有五种不同的美味鱼类,全世界消费的野生三文鱼中有三分之一产于阿拉斯加州。因此可知Alaska州以三文鱼而闻名。故选A项。

3推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了AlabamaAlaskaArizona以及California的特产。因此可推断出文章可能选自一本旅游手册。故选D项。

【题目】阅读下面的短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.

Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries -like the UK or France -people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.

Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.

Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.

People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment (多元文化环境)will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.

When we are happy, we would like share our happiness with others, making them know our enjoyment. When we are not in a good mood, we wanted to get someone whom can listen to us. Be a listener is not easy. People always complain about our worries, and a good listener should listen to them but learn to comfort them. To be a good listener can help us make good friend with others. The one who always listen to others is more likely to be easy-going. When he is in the trouble, his friends will be willingly to help him. So let’s learn to be a good listener from now on.
