20.Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal.They include how to handle knives,forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner.To behave well abroad,you are to know some table manners.
  EATING MANNERS
  Japan:It is"perfectly"okay to slurp when you eat noodles.Unlike making big noises,slurping slightly is not rude.Japanese also say it tastes better if you slurp.
  Russia:Your wrists should be placed on the edge of the table while eating,fork in left hand,and knife in the right.It is not good manners to rest them on your lap.Keep your elbows off the table.Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has given you enough to eat.
  France:Never discuss money or religion over dinner.What is different from the manners in Russia is that finishing everything on your plate is considered good manners.
  Mexico:Whenever you catch the eye of someone who's eating,even a stranger,it's good manners to say"provecho",which means enjoy.In Mexico,dining is more than a meal.It's a social occasion--lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours.Where you sit matters in the country.Before you get seated,look for place cards,or wait until the host seats you.And you must say"enjoy your meal"before you leave the table.
  DRINKING MANNERS
  America:If you empty a bottle into someone's glass,it obliges that person to buy the next bottle.It's polite to put the last drops into your own glass.
  Australia:In a pub it's usual to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your group.When it's your turn,say"It's my round".When it's their round,they will buy it for you.Don't leave before you've bought a round.
  Japan:Don't fill your own glass of alcohol.Instead,you should pour for others and wait for them to do it for you.
31.When you are at table in Mexico,you shouldC.
A.keep silent if you catch the eye of a stranger
B.eat as quickly as you can to save your time
C.wish others happy with eating before leaving the table
D.seat yourself anywhere before the host tell you to

A.a(chǎn)ttract us to these countries to enjoy foreign food
B.help us behave in a polite manner in different countries

分析 本文是一篇記敘文,主要介紹了不同國家餐桌上的禮節(jié),了解這些,有助于我們了解世界不同的文化背景,更好地做有禮貌的人.

解答 31 C 細節(jié)理解題.從Mexico所在那段文章中And you must say"enjoy your meal"before you leave the table.在你離開餐桌之前,你必須說"好好享受你的晚餐"意思與C項吻合,故答案是C.
32 D 細節(jié)理解題.選項A"在日本吃面條時保持沉默",文章介紹可以發(fā)出"嘖嘖"的聲音;選項B說"在法國留一些食物在盤子里",而文中建議吃光盤中食物;選項C指"在俄羅斯把叉子放在右手邊",文中講"把叉子放在左手邊.",所以選擇D.

33 C 標題理解題.根據(jù)第一段Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal.They include how to handle knives,forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner.To behave well abroad,you are to know some table manners餐桌禮儀是你吃飯時的行為舉止,包括如何處理刀叉、勺子以及如何禮貌地進餐,為了在國外行為良好,你應該知道餐桌禮儀.下文具體講述了餐桌禮儀table manners,所以選擇C.

34  B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段To behave well abroad,you are to know some table manners為了在國外行為良好,你應該知道餐桌禮儀.即作者告訴我們不同國家餐桌上的禮儀是為了幫助我們在不同國家做一個舉止規(guī)范懂禮貌的人.所以選擇B.

點評 首先對原文材料迅速瀏覽,掌握全文的主旨大意.因為閱讀理解題一般沒有標題,所以,速讀全文,抓住中心主旨很有必要,在速讀的過程中,應盡可能多地捕獲信息材料. 其次,細讀題材,各個擊破.掌握全文的大意之后,細細閱讀每篇材料后的問題,弄清每題要求后,帶著問題,再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關信息. 要善于抓住每段的主題句,閱讀時,要有較強的針對性.對于捕獲到的信息,要做認真分析,仔細推敲,理解透徹,只有這樣,針對題目要求,才能做到穩(wěn)、準.

15.Teens want structure in their lives,which means they want their lives well-planned.To begin building structure,teens need love and trust.They need to know their parents are there to give them needed love and support (支持).Teens want to be sure that nothing can prevent parents from shouldering their responsibility for them not their growing maturity (成熟),misbehavior,nor anger at something they have done.Teens want parents to keep control while allowing them to make some decisions.
    There are some ways you can help your teens create reasonable structure and remain close.One way is to spend time together.Parents often mistake their teens'increased interest in friends for a disinterest in the family.
