C Do you know what music people like listening to? If you ask them, you may get many different answers. Why do different people have different musical preferences? What do these differences say about us? Researchers from Cambridge University tried to answer these questions. They asked 350,000 people from 50 different countries. Then, they found that musical preferences depend on personality (性格). Outgoing people prefer danceable music with strong beats such as rap. Country music fans are shown to be more serious in their jobs. One of the findings is quite interesting. The researchers thought that people with much stress (压力) should like sad music or rhythmic (有节奏的) music. But it turned out that these people dislike these two kinds. Instead, they like loud music better. Maybe they like to listen to this kind of music to lower their stress. The researchers also found that climates may affect people’s musical preferences and personalities, too. People in hot weather prefer danceable music. They are more outgoing. This may be a result of longer daylight hours. They advised people to go outdoors to dance. Of course, nothing is clear-cut. We may not group people simply by their musical tastes. The study just showed us that people of different cultures are more similar than we think. “People are grouped by language and culture,” said Dr. David Greenberg. “But if an outgoing person in one place likes the same music as outgoing people in other places, then we can say that music is really like a bridge.” 26. How does the writer begin this topic? A. By asking questions. B. By telling stories. C. By giving examples. D. By listing numbers. 27. People who are more serious in their jobs like ________ better. A. sad music B. loud music C. country music D. danceable music 28. In which season do people most probably like danceable music? A. B. C. D. 29. What did the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. People of different cultures are quite different. B. People can be grouped only by language and culture. C. Listening to loud music helps to deal with people’s stress. D. Music helps people all over the world to communicate (交流). 30. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P= Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Life is like a journey. On the way, we have happy things and sad things.

And Western hosts sometimes look rude (粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests. It is because the guest-host relationship in China is quite different from that in some western countries. In China guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese friend’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to (根据) the host’s way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest. My wife’s mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their houses. At the very least, you should ask “Is it OK if I smoke?”. But don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.” In my culture, if you smoke in their houses, you are a bad guest, but if they don’t allow you to smoke in their houses, they are not rude hosts. In a word, no matter where you are, the best way to be a good guest is to adapt to (适应) the local customs. Just as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” 46. The passage is mainly talking about __________________________________. (10个词以内) 47. How does the writer feel when he sees some guests smoking in his wife’s mother’s house? __________________________________ (5个词以内) 48. If a guest wants to smoke in an American host’s home, what question should he/she ask? __________________________________ (10个词以内) 49. What does the saying “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” mean in Chinese? __________________________________ (5个词以内) 50. What do you think is impolite for a guest to do? Please answer in your own words. __________________________________ (20个词以内) 第二节 书面表达（共1题，满分15分） 51. 生活中总有一些事情令人难忘，点点滴滴，历久弥新。不管是开心，还是忧伤，都会给我们启示，伴我们成长。假如你学校将组织以“一次难忘的经历”为话题的英语演讲比赛。请根据内容提示，用英语写一篇短文参赛。 内容提示：1. 你的经历； 2. 你的感受； 3. 你从中学到了什么。 参考词汇：unforgettable难忘的 作文要求：1. 词数80个左右。作文的开头已给出，不计入总词数； 2. 文章必须包含所有要点，可适当发挥，使短文连贯、通顺； 3. 文中不能出现真实姓名、校名等信息。 An Unforgettable Experience I had an unforgettable experience.

Why do different people have different musical preferences? What do these differences say about us? Researchers from Cambridge University tried to answer these questions. They asked 350,000 people from 50 different countries. Then, they found that musical preferences depend on personality (性格). Outgoing people prefer danceable music with strong beats such as rap. Country music fans are shown to be more serious in their jobs. One of the findings is quite interesting. The researchers thought that people with much stress (压力) should like sad music or rhythmic (有节奏的) music. But it turned out that these people dislike these two kinds. Instead, they like loud music better. Maybe they like to listen to this kind of music to lower their stress. The researchers also found that climates may affect people’s musical preferences and personalities, too. People in hot weather prefer danceable music. They are more outgoing. This may be a result of longer daylight hours. They advised people to go outdoors to dance. Of course, nothing is clear-cut. We may not group people simply by their musical tastes. The study just showed us that people of different cultures are more similar than we think. “People are grouped by language and culture,” said Dr. David Greenberg. “But if an outgoing person in one place likes the same music as outgoing people in other places, then we can say that music is really like a bridge.” 26. How does the writer begin this topic? A. By asking questions. B. By telling stories. C. By giving examples. D. By listing numbers. 27. People who are more serious in their jobs like ________ better. A. sad music B. loud music C. country music D. danceable music 28. In which season do people most probably like danceable music? A. B. C. D. 29. What did the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. People of different cultures are quite different. B. People can be grouped only by language and culture. C. Listening to loud music helps to deal with people’s stress. D. Music helps people all over the world to communicate (交流). 30. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P= Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 【答案】26. A 27. C 28. B 29. D 30.

And Western hosts sometimes look rude (粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests. It is because the guest-host relationship in China is quite different from that in some western countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese friend’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to (根据) the host’s way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest. My wife’s mother, a very kind Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their houses. At the very least, you should ask “Is it OK if I smoke?”. But don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.” In my culture, if you smoke in their houses, you are a bad guest, but if they don’t allow you to smoke in their houses, they are not rude hosts. In a word, no matter where you are, the best way to be a good guest is to adapt to (适应) the local customs. Just as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” 46. The passage is mainly talking about __________________________________. (10个词以内) 47. How does the writer feel when he sees some guests smoking in his wife’s mother’s house? __________________________________ (5个词以内) 48. If a guest wants to smoke in an American host’s home, what question should he/she ask? __________________________________ (10个词以内) 49. What does the saying “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” mean in Chinese? __________________________________ (5个词以内) 50. What do you think is impolite for a guest to do? Please answer in your own words. __________________________________ (20个词以内) 【答案】46. different guest-host relationships in China and western countries/ guest-host relationships in China and western countries 47. He feels unhappy. 48. Is it OK if I smoke? 49. 入乡随俗。 50. It’s impolite for a guest to make noises/use your phone while eating in China. (答案合理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国的主客关系与一些西方国家的不同之处。 【46题详解】 根据“It is because the guest-host relationship in China is quite different from that in some western countries.”可知，本文主要介绍了中国的主客关系与一些西方国家有很大的不同。故填different guest-host relationships in China and western countries/ guest-host relationships in China and western countries。 【47题详解】 根据“When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy.”可知，当作者看到一些客人在他岳母的房子里抽烟时，他感到不高兴，故填He feels unhappy. 【48题详解】 根据“In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their houses. At the very least, you should ask ‘Is it OK if I smoke?’”可知，如果客人想在美国主人家里吸烟，他/她应该问：“我可以抽烟吗？”故填Is it OK if I smoke? 【49题详解】 根据“In a word, no matter where you are, the best way to be a good guest is to adapt to (适应) the local customs.”可知，无论你在哪里，做一个好客人的最好方法就是适应当地的风俗习惯，因此此句表示“入乡随俗”。故填：入乡随俗。 【50题详解】 开放性试题，答案不唯一。如在中国吃饭的时候，作为客人发出声音或者使用手机是不礼貌的。故填It’s impolite for a guest to make noises/use your phone while eating in China. 第二节 书面表达（共1题，满分15分） 51. 生活中总有一些事情令人难忘，点点滴滴，历久弥新。不管是开心，还是忧伤，都会给我们启示，伴我们成长。假如你学校将组织以“一次难忘的经历”为话题的英语演讲比赛。请根据内容提示，用英语写一篇短文参赛。 内容提示：1. 你的经历； 2. 你的感受； 3. 你从中学到了什么。 参考词汇：unforgettable难忘的 作文要求：1. 词数80个左右。作文的开头已给出，不计入总词数； 2. 文章必须包含所有要点，可适当发挥，使短文连贯、通顺； 3. 文中不能出现真实姓名、校名等信息。 An Unforgettable Experience I had an unforgettable experience.
