第三部分 閱讀理解(共10小題;每小題2分,滿分20分)
A
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us develop more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they treat us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides for our foreign friends. Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get out of the airport and go to our own hotel by bus. And they also expect that we will phone them from the hotel. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
56. The writer of this passage must be ____ .
A. an AmericanB. a ChineseC. a professorD. a student
57. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even though they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
58. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ____ .
A. warmly welcomed at the airportB. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his homeD. treated to dinner in a restaurant
59. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “ ____ .”
A. strict with timeB. serious with timeC. careful with timeD. willing to spend time
60. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Friendships between Chinese.B. Friendships between Americans.
C. Americans’ Hospitality.D. Americans’ and Chinese’s Views of Friendships.
B
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 p.m.. Jane went to the party with her husband, David, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
By 9:45 p.m., everybody was having great fun, but no food appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they were too hungry. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00 p.m., there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left, hungry and angry.
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30—8:30 p.m. means drinking only, going out to dinner afterwards; 8:00 p.m. means possible dinner, but 9:30 p.m. and any time thereafter means no food.
But this is not always the case. If asked to a student’s party at 6:30p.m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight. Being the first to arrive—looking eager—is social death. When my mother is asked to a party for 6:30 p.m., she likes to be there, if not on time, no later than 7:00. My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.
The accepted custom at present is puzzling, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does give every party precious element (成分) of surprise.
61. The underlined phrase “off their heads” in Paragraph 2 probably means “____”.
A. tiredB. angryC. excitedD. hopeless
62. Jane and David’s story is used to show that ____ .
A. party-goers usually get hungry at partiesB. party invitations can be puzzling
C. people should ask for food at parties D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are boring
63. For some young people, arriving on time for a student’s party will probably be considered ____ .
A. very difficultB. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and politeD. socially unacceptable
64. According to the writer, people in their late thirties ____ .
A. are likely to arrive late for a partyB. care little about the party time
C. haven’t really grown up yetD. like food at parties
65. What is the main idea of the text?
A. It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served.B. It’s wise to eat something before going to a party.
C. It’s important to follow social rules of party-going.D. It’s necessary to read invitations carefully.
