    At times the balance in nature is ______ , resulting in a number of possibly unforeseen effects.

    A. troubled           B. confused           C. disturbed         D. puzzled

    C


    解析:

    trouble主要指遇上难解决的问题而使人苦恼、忧虑；puzzled  指人是困惑的，因此将A、D两项排除；根据句意，自然的平衡本身并不是混乱的（confused）,而不受到了人为的干扰（disturbed）,才会导致不可预见的影响。因此选择C项。

    One year ago, I traveled 15,000 kilometers from Australia to the US. I am from a beachside town in the   16  of Sydney, and thought there would be almost no   17  differences between my home country and my 18  . I was surprised at how wrong I was, and at  19  different the two countries could be.

    The United States is   20  in almost every aspect. The buildings are gigantic (巨大的) and so are the people who   21  and work in them. At mealtimes, the portions (份额) often   22  to me to be big enough for three or four people. I once   23  a baked potato which turned out to be bigger than my head! This was a big   24  for me.

    The longer I spent in the US, the more I started to   25  smaller differences like the culture of   26  in restaurants. In Australia we don’t tend to give a tip   27  the service has been really excellent. In the US you tip for   28  everything, even at the hairdresser. Waiters and shop assistants   29  to be given 15 percent of the bill, although in places   30 New York or Washington DC, a tip can be as much as 20 percent.

      31 , I also became more wary (谨慎的) of believing the stereotypes (成见) I had heard at home as I traveled. Not all Americans are ignorant of geography, for example.

    Despite this, certain stereotypes about places did seem to   32  true for me. There is an immense (强烈的) sense of speed in New York. Everyone   33  to and fro, and very seldom takes time to   34  the moment. This is very different from the Australian lifestyle. Australians are laid back. Even in a major city like Sydney, we “Aussies” take time to “stop and smell the roses”---very different from our American counterparts.

    Navigating (驾驭) the culture divide between Australia and the US was challenging at times. But I took up that   35  and learned a lot from it. It was an adventure.

    科目：高中英语 来源：2012年全国普通高等学校招生统一考试英语（广东卷解析版） 题型：阅读理解

    “Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.

    “Have a nice day. Next!”This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone（腔调）with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.

    The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say “oh, you may have a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”

    The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.

    Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.

    1.How does the author understand Maxie’s words?

    A．Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.

    B．Maxie really wishes the author a good day.

    C．Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.

    D．Maxie really worries about the author’s security.

    2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

    A．The salesgirl is rude.

    B．The salesgirl is bored.

    C．The salesgirl cares about me

    D．The salesgirl says the words as a routine.

    3. By saying “Have a nice day,” a stranger may _____.

    A．try to be polite to you

    B．express respect to you

    C．give his blessing to you

    D．share his pleasure with you

    4.According to the last paragraph, people say “Have a nice day”_______.

    A．sincerely

    B．as thanks

    C．as a habit

    D．encouragingly

    5.What is the best title of the passage?

    A．Have a Nice Day—a Social Custom.

    B．Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant Gesture.

    C．Have a Nice Day—a Heart-warming Greeting.

    D．Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation.
