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.

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文,講述了“我”來到美國后受到的文化沖擊,然而“我”也深知,正是這些多樣的文化才讓生活有趣了起來,我們都應該理解和尊重這種文化差異。

1句意:傳統(tǒng)之間有很多差異,有時它們會導致很多尷尬。

根據(jù)題干中的differences“差異”和embarrassment“尷尬可知差異會“導致”尷尬,結合首字母提示c提示可確定答案為cause“導致”,前面為情態(tài)動詞,直接填動詞原形即可,故答案為cause。

2句意:當我第一次到達舊金山時,我很難理解一些美國人的做事方式。

本文講的是傳統(tǒng)差異帶來的影響,根據(jù)題干中“first arrived”可推斷作者首次到美國,肯定對很多東西“難以理解”,結合首字母h提示,此處填hard“困難的”,故答案為hard

3句意:一次,我?guī)еY物去拜訪一個美國朋友。

根據(jù)題干中“with a gift”和首字母v提示可推斷作者是去visit“拜訪”某人。此處直接填visit構成to visit的動詞不定式,故答案為visit

4句意:令我驚訝的是,當我將禮物遞給她時,她只用了一只手就接受了,并立即將其打開。

根據(jù)題干中accepted“接受”和首字母p提示可推斷作者先是去把禮物pass“遞給”對方。這件事發(fā)生在過去所以用一般過去時,pass要填其過去式passed,故答案為passed

5句意:令我驚訝的是,當我將禮物遞給她時,她只用了一只手就接受了,并立即將其打開。

根據(jù)“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,此處應填later“隨后;之后的反義詞來表現(xiàn)中美兩國對拆禮物時間的不同傳統(tǒng),結合首字母提示i可知此處填immediately“立即地”副詞來修飾opened動詞,故答案為immediately

6句意:更糟糕的是,經(jīng)過一個愉快的夜晚,我喝完了可樂,準備離開了。

根據(jù)題干中“after a nice evening”時間狀語提示可推斷一個愉快的夜晚過后作者需要“離開”了,get ready to do sth.“準備好做某事”,結合首字母l提示,故答案為leave。

7句意:我們一道別,我的朋友就回到她的房間,關上了她身后的門。

根據(jù)賓語goodbye和首字母s提示可知謂語動詞為say,時態(tài)為一般過去時,所以用say的過去式said,故答案為said

8句意:這讓我感到我并不那么受歡迎。

首字母提示為f,根據(jù)“I was not really welcome. ”“我不是那么受歡迎”可知這是作者“我”的內(nèi)心感受,故填feel,構成make sb. feel that的固定句式,故答案為feel

9句意:我認為傳統(tǒng)的差異可能是使生活變得有趣的一種方式。

首字母提示為i,根據(jù)后文boring life“無聊的生活”可推斷作者認為正是傳統(tǒng)的差異性使得生活變得interesting“有趣”,故答案為interesting。

10句意:因此,學會理解和尊重差異就是生活的全部。

首字母提示為d,全文一直都在聊傳統(tǒng)文化中的differences“差異”,最后結尾也不例外,根據(jù)前文可知作者認為差異是使得生活有趣的方式之一,那么尊重和理解這種“differences”是很重要的,差異為可數(shù)名詞,此處用復數(shù),故答案為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(民眾)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.

【題目】閱讀下面短文,從各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。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(負擔) 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(選擇).
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(考慮).
E. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.
