情景主题:筷子-亚洲文化瑰宝的多元价值
Chopsticks have been used in Asia for over 3,000 years. The earliest chopsticks were discovered in Henan, China about 1200 BCE. Over the next 2,000 years, they spread throughout East and Southeast Asia.
The three most well-known types are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Chinese chopsticks are longer with wide, rounded points at the end, mostly made of plastic or bamboo. While Japanese chopsticks are shorter and more pointed. Korean ones are flat rather than round and made of metal rather than wood. It’s said that ancient Royalty (皇室) used silver chopsticks to see if their food was poisoned (有毒的). In Southeast Asia, Vietnamese chopsticks are similar to Chinese ones.
Chopsticks are not just eating tools. A proper chopstick grip (握法) can greatly improve dining experience. First, place the top part of two sticks between your thumb and index finger. Hold the upper chopstick gently with your first three fingers while resting the lower one at your ring finger. Meanwhile, put your thumb at the side of your index-finger nail. The upper stick is moved up and down with the movements of the index finger and middle finger. This way, pieces of food can be easily grasped between the tips of the chopsticks.
________ The first rule is to grab and not stab (刺入) food with the tip of your chopsticks. Second, don’t set chopsticks vertically (垂直的) into the rice in your bowl. In some cultures, such positioning of chopsticks is considered as a symbol associated with death. Third, watch where you point your chopsticks. It’s rude to point them directly at others.
Following the guidelines above, you not only show respect for the cultural traditions about chopsticks, but also enrich your overall dining experience.

情景主题:世界各地不同的餐桌礼仪和用餐习惯
Around the world, people have different ideas about what good table manners are. In India, for example, people only eat with their right hands. And their left hand stays still. Eating with your left hand is very rude!
In western countries, people do not usually share the same dishes. Everyone has his or her own plate of food. You eat with a knife and fork and you should not wave (挥) them around when you are not eating. And you should try not to be noisy when eating.
When you go to some restaurants in different parts of the world, it is important to know what people think is rude. For example, in China it is OK to be noisy in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant is not noisy, you may think it is not very good. However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too noisy, other customers might not be happy.
Paying for the meal is also different from country to country. In China, one person usually pays for everyone. In western countries, when friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called “going Dutch”. When westerners pay the check, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called “leaving a tip”. Not leaving a tip is very rude. In the U. S., it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.
26.What do people usually do while eating in western countries
A.Share the same dishes. B.Talk in a loud voice.
C.Wave to the waiter often. D.Eat food on their own plates.
27.新考法·词义猜测What does the underlined word “still” mean in Chinese
A.安静的 B.不动的 C.然而 D.仍然
28.If people pay for a 300-dollar bill in an American restaurant, how much do they usually leave as a tip
A.$ 15 B.$ 45 C.$ 75 D.$ 100
29.Which of the following is TRUE
A.Indian people usually use both hands to eat.
B.Chinese people prefer sharing the cost for meals.
C.In America, it’s polite to make much noise while eating.
D.It’s common to leave tips to the waiters in western countries.
30.What is the best title for the passage
A.Pay for Meals B.Eating Habits C.Leaving a Tip D.Table Manners

【导语】本文我们观察当地人行为,礼貌待人,跨越文化差异,结交外国朋友。
【详解】11.句意:当我们与外国人交流时,了解这些习俗很重要。
根据“with foreign people”及语境,此处指与外国人“交流”。communicate with为固定搭配,意为“与……交流”,符合语境。

根据文化常识,日本人的见面礼仪是“鞠躬”。A选项“鞠躬”符合日本习俗。

根据西方习俗,见面问候常包含“亲吻脸颊”。选项C符合问候语境。

20.句意:并与外国朋友建立良好的友谊(结交好朋友)。
make friends with为固定搭配,意为“与……交朋友”。C选项friends符合语境,A、B、D 项不符合搭配及语境。

23.根据第三段握法描述:上筷用食指和中指控制上下移动,下筷靠无名指支撑,拇指和食指夹住筷子上端,图片D符合。

26.第二段提到:“In western countries, people do not usually share the same dishes. Everyone has his or her own plate of food.”这直接说明西方人习惯各自吃自己盘子里的食物。
27.第一段中提到:“In India, for example, people only eat with their right hands. And their left hand stays still.”,结合上下文,“still”在此处意为“不动的”,强调左手不参与进食动作。
28.最后一段指出:“In the U.S., it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.”,若账单为300美元,则小费可能为30美元、45美元或60美元。
29.根据全文内容:西方国家普遍有小费文化,给小费是礼貌行为。
30.全文围绕不同国家的用餐礼仪展开,包括饮食方式、餐厅氛围、付账习惯等,因此最佳标题应为“Table Manners”(餐桌礼仪),而非仅聚焦于“付账”或“小费”。

三、阅读理解(本大题有15小题,每小题2分,共30分)
A
情景主题:筷子-亚洲文化瑰宝的多元价值
Chopsticks have been used in Asia for over 3,000 years. The earliest chopsticks were discovered in Henan, China about 1200 BCE. Over the next 2,000 years, they spread throughout East and Southeast Asia.
The three most well-known types are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Chinese chopsticks are longer with wide, rounded points at the end, mostly made of plastic or bamboo. While Japanese chopsticks are shorter and more pointed. Korean ones are flat rather than round and made of metal rather than wood. It’s said that ancient Royalty (皇室) used silver chopsticks to see if their food was poisoned (有毒的). In Southeast Asia, Vietnamese chopsticks are similar to Chinese ones.
Chopsticks are not just eating tools. A proper chopstick grip (握法) can greatly improve dining experience. First, place the top part of two sticks between your thumb and index finger. Hold the upper chopstick gently with your first three fingers while resting the lower one at your ring finger. Meanwhile, put your thumb at the side of your index-finger nail. The upper stick is moved up and down with the movements of the index finger and middle finger. This way, pieces of food can be easily grasped between the tips of the chopsticks.
________ The first rule is to grab and not stab (刺入) food with the tip of your chopsticks. Second, don’t set chopsticks vertically (垂直的) into the rice in your bowl. In some cultures, such positioning of chopsticks is considered as a symbol associated with death. Third, watch where you point your chopsticks. It’s rude to point them directly at others.
Following the guidelines above, you not only show respect for the cultural traditions about chopsticks, but also enrich your overall dining experience.

情景主题:世界各地不同的餐桌礼仪和用餐习惯
Around the world, people have different ideas about what good table manners are. In India, for example, people only eat with their right hands. And their left hand stays still. Eating with your left hand is very rude!
In western countries, people do not usually share the same dishes. Everyone has his or her own plate of food. You eat with a knife and fork and you should not wave (挥) them around when you are not eating. And you should try not to be noisy when eating.
When you go to some restaurants in different parts of the world, it is important to know what people think is rude. For example, in China it is OK to be noisy in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant is not noisy, you may think it is not very good. However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too noisy, other customers might not be happy.
Paying for the meal is also different from country to country. In China, one person usually pays for everyone. In western countries, when friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called “going Dutch”. When westerners pay the check, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called “leaving a tip”. Not leaving a tip is very rude. In the U. S., it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.
