67. at 68. himself
69. best 70. selling

句意:他擅长射箭,并对此感到自豪。此处是固定短语be good at“擅长”。故填at。
【68题详解】
句意:他擅长射箭,并对此感到自豪。空处作宾语,但是主语和宾语都是同一人称,宾语需要用反身代词。故填himself。
【69题详解】

【74题详解】
句意:陈对那人的技巧感到惊讶。空处作定语修饰名词skill,应用man的所有格结构。故填man’s。
【75题详解】

第三节 信息归纳(共5小题; 每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容,完成表格中所缺的信息。(每空一词)
The hot pot (火锅) is one of the most popular meals in China. It has a long history of about 200 years.
Besides its delicious taste, there are two other important reasons for the Chinese to like the hot pot. The first one is that the hot pot is considered as a great way to make new friends. The other is that the hot pot is good for people both in winter and summer. Eating the hot pot can warm the body in winter, and increase perspiration (流汗) to help cool the body in summer.
There are several kinds of hot pots in China with different soup. Two of the most popular hot pots are Sichuan hot pot and Beijing mutton hot pot.
Sichuan hot pot is quite different from other hot pots, because there is a special food in it—Sichuan pepper. Beijing mutton hot pot is regarded as the typical example of the northern China hot pots.
When you eat a hot pot in a restaurant, generally, there are two types of soup: spicy (辛辣的) and clear. A clear soup has a quite mild (温和的) taste, which is made from seafood or meat bones. A spicy soup usually has Sichuan pepper, which is spicy and salty.
If you like spicy food but your friend doesn’t eat spicy food, there is a special pot with a divider in the middle between the spicy and clear soup, which is called a double-flavor hot pot (鸳鸯锅).
Hot pot—A popular Chinese dish
The reasons why people love it
* It’s a good way to make new friends.
* It’s thought that the hot pot is ____76____ for people both in winter and summer.
Two typical examples
* Sichuan hot pot is quite ____77____ from other hot pots because of Sichuan pepper.
* Beijing mutton hot pot represents (代表) the taste of people in the ____78____ of China.
Two ____79____ of soup
Clear and spicy.
Tip
If you wants to choose a spicy soup but your friend don’t, you can choose a double-flavor hot pot, which can meet (满足) ____80____ of your requirements (要求).
【答案】76. good
77. different
78. north 79. types
80. both
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了中国的火锅文化。
【76题详解】
根据“The other is that the hot pot is good for people both in winter and summer”可知,无论是在夏天还是冬天,火锅都是对人们有好处的。be good for“对……有好处”,故填good。
【77题详解】
根据“Sichuan hot pot is quite different from other hot pots”可知,四川火锅与其他火锅不同。be different from“与……不同”,故填different。
【78题详解】
根据“Beijing mutton hot pot is regarded as the typical example of the northern China hot pots”可知,北京羊肉火锅是中国北方火锅的典型代表。换句话说,北京羊肉火锅代表了中国北方人的口味,the后用名词,故填north。
【79题详解】
根据“there are two types of soup: spicy (辛辣的) and clear”可知有两种类型的汤底。type“种类”,因为是两种汤底,所以此处用复数形式,故填types。
【80题详解】
根据“If you like spicy food but your friend doesn’t eat spicy food, there is a special pot with a divider in the middle between the spicy and clear soup, which is called a double-flavor hot pot”可知,鸳鸯锅可以同时满足你和朋友两个人的要求,both“两者”,故填both。

The hot pot (火锅) is one of the most popular meals in China. It has a long history of about 200 years.
Besides its delicious taste, there are two other important reasons for the Chinese to like the hot pot. The first one is that the hot pot is considered as a great way to make new friends. The other is that the hot pot is good for people both in winter and summer. Eating the hot pot can warm the body in winter, and increase perspiration (流汗) to help cool the body in summer.
There are several kinds of hot pots in China with different soup. Two of the most popular hot pots are Sichuan hot pot and Beijing mutton hot pot.
Sichuan hot pot is quite different from other hot pots, because there is a special food in it—Sichuan pepper. Beijing mutton hot pot is regarded as the typical example of the northern China hot pots.
When you eat a hot pot in a restaurant, generally, there are two types of soup: spicy (辛辣的) and clear. A clear soup has a quite mild (温和的) taste, which is made from seafood or meat bones. A spicy soup usually has Sichuan pepper, which is spicy and salty.
If you like spicy food but your friend doesn’t eat spicy food, there is a special pot with a divider in the middle between the spicy and clear soup, which is called a double-flavor hot pot (鸳鸯锅).
