【题目】There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They’re hard working, respectful but strange sometimes. If you don’t understand the culture, you will get some problems with them. Asian people are different from any other cultures if you think you know them, you might want to think again.
How are they different? When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. You can do anything you want but don't disrespect an Asian man. You will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he is your boss. It’s something called “face saving” in the Asian culture. It’s ridiculous sometimes but it’s their culture. Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work. Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal.
Americans are very different from Asian people. If you’re Asian, you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them. It will be easier for you since you’re in their countries. Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn’t work that way with Asian people.
If you’re an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks. They will think that you don’t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them; when in fact, you’re just doing your job. Of course, it’s not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee’s mind.
【1】The Americans can’t get along well with the Asians probably because______.
A. their cultures are different
B. they don’t like each other
C. both of them are too proud
D. they have different political views
【2】The underlined phrase “face saving” in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.
A. saving some money for later use
B. making faces to please your boss
C. showing some respect to somebody
D. helping somebody out of trouble
【3】 From the third paragraph we can know that it is difficult_________.
A. for the Asians to accept the culture in America
B. for the Americans to adapt to the culture in China
C. for people to learn the culture in a foreign country
D. for people to follow the culture in their own country
【4】The negative remarks an American boss gives on your work probably mean he/she ____________________.
A. doesn’t like you any longer
B. thinks you are not worth respecting
C. offer you some better advice
D. wants you to improve your work
【答案】
【1】A
【2】C
【3】B
【4】D
【解析】
试题分析:本文介绍美国和亚洲文化的不同导致美国人和亚洲人不能相处很好。
【1】A细节理解题。根据第一段第三句If you don’t understand the culture, you will get some problems with them.如果你不懂这文化,你和他们在一起会有一些麻烦。因此可知:文化的不同,美国人和亚洲人不能相处很好。故选A。
【2】C词义猜测题。When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. You can do anything you want but don't disrespect an Asian man. You will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he is your boss.当谈到多数中国文化时,尊重代表一切。你可以做你想做的任何事情,但不要不尊重一个亚洲人。后来你将得到一些真正的事情,特别是如果他是你的老板。可知划线部分的意思是:展示对别人的尊重。故选C。
【3】B推理判断题。根据第三段中的Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn’t work that way with Asian people.想像一个在中国工作的美国人,当他在每个人面前都会直接对他们进行批评时,他期盼中国合作者与他相处很好。那种方式只是对亚洲人来说不起作用。可知美国人适应中国文化是困难的。故选B。
【4】D推理判断题。根据第四段中的If you’re an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks.如果你是一个美国老板,正在给你的亚洲雇员一个评论,你会看到他们对你的负面言论会有一个问题。They will think that you don’t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them; when in fact, you’re just doing your job.他们将认为你不喜欢他们,不尊重他们,想开除他们。事实上,你只是在做你的工作。可知D项符合语境。
【名师点拨】
推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定的推理判断,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话,也可能是某几句话,所以,推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案:即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude indicate等标志性词语。 这种题型主要包括细节判断题、态度观点推断题、写作意图推断题、文章出处判断题和猜测想象推断题。比如第34小题B推理判断题。根据第三段中的Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn’t work that way with Asian people.想像一个在中国工作的美国人,当他在每个人面前都会直接对他们进行批评时,他期盼中国合作者与他相处很好。那种方式只是对亚洲人来说不起作用。可知美国人适应中国文化是困难的。故选B。

We are familiar with an old saying that “Clothes make the man”,which means goodlooking outfits may possibly make a person better respected and look more like a true gentleman.__ 【1】_ Naturally,he may be well respected and gracefully treated even though he doesn't seem so respectable as others imagined. Instead,if a man is poorly or commonly dressed,he can't avoid being looked down upon and unfairly treated,_【2】_ As far as these people are concerned,what one wears is taken as an essential signal of status and an expression of characteristics. Consequently,clothes do seem to help make a good impression on others,and gain more respect.
__【3】_ I think the good impression one leaves on others based on clothes doesn't last long. Only good internal quality and beauty will impress people forever and never fade.__ 【4】__ On the contrary,when people who are fascinated by a person's clothes eventually find out that he is an undesirable person,they would think he is pretentious and may even treat him with contempt(蔑视).On top of this,people who attach too much importance to clothes would waste their time and money on it. Besides,it adversely affects their effort on the things that really matter.
In summary,__【5】__Nothing can count more than good internal quality in building up the man. Therefore only one's internal beauty and knowledge are more decisive of a person's value.
A.clothes do help in making an initial image,but do not make the man.
B.As a result,all the people spare no money to buy expensive fine clthes.
C.Clothes just make a man look better but will in no sense make a better person.
D.But I have a different view on this issue.
E.Thus,a man should be always dressed like a gentleman.
F.for many people judge others only by the way they dress.
G.If a man is well dressed,he will probably gain more confidence and dignity.

Believe it or not, many of the biggest change in how English is spoken have come from common people in the streets. And one of the most important places which English has changed is the playground! These playgrounds can be any place where the young people meet, such like a sports field or a beach. Often words using by black kids in big cities become popular for other kids many years later. On the beaches of southern California, teenagers invented words to describe what they felt when they surfed. These words found its way into the high schools and then to other places. Similar changes happen among young people in Ireland and Australia. Children from one group would find ways to play with another group more easily. Often they made new words just develop an identity different from their parents.

There are various aspects that go into making a successful school, and success can be measured in various ways.Often, the teachers are praised for a school’s success and blamed for its failure.Yet, in order for a school to be effective, it must be a place where teaching and learning can easily take place, and that requires the hard work of more than just educators.Students must take learning into their own hands and feel as if what they are doing is as important as it actually is.This can only be done with the cooperation of every adult that is involved in the students’ life.Some of these individuals often go unnoticed, yet the role they play in the students’ lives is immeasurable.
