【解析】

试题分析:考查强调句型。强调句型的基本结构为It is/was被强调成分that/who其它成分;其最大的特点就是去掉it is/was…that/who…句子仍然成立。要注意强调句型能强调除谓语动词以为的所有的句子成分。本句强调的是做原因状语的介词短语 because of his kind nature,句意:正是因为他善良的天性,我才爱上了Peter.故C正确。

考点:考查强调句型

“Long time no see” is a very interesting sentence.When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s email,I laughed.I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.

Obviously,it is a word-by-word literal translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruled English grammar and structure! Later on,my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting.I was too thrilled to believe her.Her words could not convince me at all.So I did a research on Google.com.To my surprise,there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” This sentence has been widely used in emails,letters,newspapers,movies,books,or any other possible places.Though it is sort of informal,it is part of the language that Americans use daily.Ironically,if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word,the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.

Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence.Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies.In the 1930s,Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a world wide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens.Detective Chan likes to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius(孔子).“Long time no see” was his trademark.Soon after Charlie Chan,“Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world with thanks to the popularity of these movies.

Some scholars refer to America as a huge pot of “stew”.All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together,and they change the color and taste of each other.American Chinese,though a minority ethnic(少数民族的成员) group in the United States,is also contributing some changes to the stew! Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed stew.

You can have some other examples than adoptions from Chinese,such as pizza from Italian,susi from Japanese,and déjà vu from French etc.There is a long list! Americans do not just simply borrow something from others.They will modify it and make it their own,so you would not be surprised to find a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant,or to buy a bottle of iced Chinese green tea with honey in a grocery store.Since Americans appreciate Chinese culture more and more nowadays,I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future.In this way the American stew keeps adding richness and flavor.

1.The writer himself felt surprised at ______.

A.the Chinglish expression “Long time no see”

B.“Long time no see” used as standard American English

C.so many literal translation of the expressions used in America

D.finding out Americans use the expression every day

2.The word “stew” in the 4th paragraph probably means ______.

A.mixture literature

B.Confucius’ words

C.a kind of cooked dish

D.American changing cultures

3.According to the passage,it can be inferred that ______.

A.detectives translate the phrase “Long time no see”

B.Hollywood made “Long time no see” popular

C.the huge pot of stew greatly affects all kinds of languages

D.cultures can be changed in the huge pot of stew

4.The main idea of the passage is that ______.

A.some Chinese expressions are introduced into English

B.you’ll not be surprised at a tofu in a restaurant in America

C.some American expressions can be used in China

D.American English keep being enriched from different cultures

Everyone wants to achieve true happiness in life.But the biggest factor holding most of us back is actually our ownselves.The Huffington Post released a list of seven mistakes we need to let go of in order to become happier people.Let’s take a look.

1.Placing too much emphasis on fulfillment (成就感)

Those who put a lot of pressure on themselves to be happy feel more lonely on a daily basis than those who do not,according to research conducted at the University of Denver,US.

2.Keeping it all in

Keeping it all together during tough times can hurt you.Crying is the body’s emotional response to outside triggers (诱因).By suppressing it,you may be damaging your mental and physical health.

3.Looking at your smartphone all the time

Connecting with others may be the key to happiness,but a recent University of Michigan study found that the more time participants spent on social networking sites,the less happy they felt.

4.Not moving

It’s no secret that a healthy lifestyle is a big part of happiness.Something as simple as a walk can help you increase your creativity and expose you to essential vitamins.

5.Not reflecting on the past

In a 2013 study on nostalgia (怀旧) and emotion,participants reported a higher sense of physiological comfort when they looked back on the past.Affection for heartwarming memories helps people relate their past experiences to the present in order to create a greater sense of meaning.

6.Resisting change

A study on the psychology of choices shows that the human brain naturally tries to avoid loss—but that resistance can cause stress.Whether it’s fear of the unknown or fear of losing what you currently have,the pressure to hold on to the present can harm your future life satisfaction.

7.Not being mindful

Setting aside time for meditation (沉思) allows your body to relax,cultivates an attitude of gratitude and lowers your stress level,according to researchers at University of California,Los Angeles,US.
