五、阅读理解(20分)
A
Have you ever heard of the iceberg model (冰山模式)? It shows that what we see from the surface (表面) is only part of the story. There is a lot more going on under it. Recently, students from Chengdu Yucai Middle School used this model to understand different cultures.
“Culture is like an iceberg, as some parts of it can be seen and some cannot,” explained, teacher Liu Yue. Things like clothes, buildings and music are the part “above the water”. And the “unseen” part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death.
Inspired (启发) by this idea, 13-year-old Li Yixuan gave an example. “When we are praised by others, we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’” said Li. “This comes down to the humility (谦逊) that we Chinese have had since ancient times.”
Sun Boyin thought beyond our own culture. In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games. It led some to say it was “strange and uncomfortable” to watch. But it turned out to be “Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”, Sun said.
For some, this can be an enlightening class. “We can’t judge a culture only by what we see”, said Guo Yinyue. “If we want to fully understand a country’s culture. We need to think more about its invisible part so as to have better communication” said Shu Yuyang.
41.What is the unseen part of culture?
A.The part of above the water. B.The way people think.
C.The surface of the story. D.The under part of the iceberg.
42.If somebody says “You are excellent!”, how do Chinese usually reply?
A.You are welcome. B.I am sorry to hear that.
C.You are right, thanks. D.I’m not that great.
43.What is Mirai Moriyama?
A.An actor. B.A student. C.A teacher. D.A player.
44.Which word is close to the underlined word “mourning”?
A.Happiness. B.Sadness. C.Kindness. D.Darkness.
45.Which can be a proper title for the text?
A.Different Countries, Different Cultures B.There are Two Sides of Each Problem
C.The Iceberg Model and Different Cultures D.The Importance of Iceberg Culture
B
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 (粗鲁的)!
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’s 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 USA, it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.
46.What do people in western countries usually do while eating?
A.Share the same dishes. B.Talk in a loud voice.
C.Wave knife and fork around. D.Eat food on their own plates.
47.What may people think if a restaurant in China is quiet?
A.It is not very good. B.The boss must be friendly.
C.The dishes must taste good. D.It's a good place for eating.
48.If you pay for a 200-dollar bill in an American restaurant, how much will you leave as a tip?
A.$10. B.S30. C.S60. D.S80.
49.What can we know from the passage?
A.Indian people usually use both hands to eat.
B.Chinese people prefer sharing the cost for meals.
C.It’s rude to leave tips to the waiters in western countries.
D.In England, it’s impolite to make much noise while eating.
50.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Eating Habits B.Leaving a Tip C.Table Manners D.Pay for Meals
六、短文首字母填空(10分)
根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词。
If you are visiting England, you will notice that the English have many customs and traditions that are different from t 51 in China. This guide provides help for anyone v 52 England for the first time.
Standing in the queue. English people like to form queues. People will think you are very rude if you don’t j 53 the queue.
Please, Thank you, Excuse me and Sorry. It is good m 54 to say “Please” and “Thank you”. If someone is in your way and you would like them to move, say “excuse me” and they will move. If you bump into someone or you are in their way, say “sorry”. They will p 55 say “sorry”, too, e 56 if it was your mistake.
Meeting a new person. When people meet for the first time, the u 57 custom is to shake hands. The next time you meet that person, you can just say hello. English people don’t usually hug or kiss u 58 they know each other really well.
Talking to people. English people like to be p 59 . So if you are on buses or trains, they usually sit as far away from other people as possible. If you want to start a conversation, the topic that English people like to talk about is the w 60 . So you need to be able to say “Isn’t it warm today? Or “Do you think it’s going to rain?” This is much better than others.
七、阅读填表(10分)
阅读下面短文,根据所读内容,在文后表格空白处填入一个最恰当的单 词。注意:每空只填一个单词。
Every time a new year rolls around, people set out to live a better life. They promise themselves that they will lose weight, find a new job or maybe even take that vacation they’ve always talked about. But why do we make those promises to ourselves and where did this tradition come from? It started with the ancient Babylonians.
Around 4,000 years ago in Babylon, the earliest recorded celebration honoring the coming of a new year was held. The calendar was different back then. The Babylonians started the new year in late March during the first new moon after the spring equinox (春分). The events were known as the Akitu festival (阿基图庆典), which lasted 11 days. They celebrated the rebirth of the sun god. Babylonians made promises in order to make all of their gods happy. They felt this would help them start the new year with better luck. This is how the tradition started.
New Year’s resolutions (决心) continued on with the Romans. When the early Roman calendar no longer went well with Earth’s traveling around the sun, Caesar decided to make a change. He talked to the best astronomers (天文学家) and mathematicians (数学家) of his time and introduced the Julian calendar, which is similar to our Gregorian calendar. Caesar set January 1 as the first day of the year to honor Janus, the god of new beginnings. The Romans celebrated the New Year by offering animals to Janus in a special way.
To this day, the traditions of the ancient Babylonians and Romans are still widely spread all over the world. However, not many people keep the resolutions they make. Google launched a Resolution Map in 2013 to see how many people keep their resolutions. Only eight percent of people were successful in achieving them.
However, with 4,000 years worth of history telling us so, this tradition is certain to live on. That statistic (数字) is hard to argue with.

五、阅读理解(20分)
A
Have you ever heard of the iceberg model (冰山模式)? It shows that what we see from the surface (表面) is only part of the story. There is a lot more going on under it. Recently, students from Chengdu Yucai Middle School used this model to understand different cultures.
“Culture is like an iceberg, as some parts of it can be seen and some cannot,” explained, teacher Liu Yue. Things like clothes, buildings and music are the part “above the water”. And the “unseen” part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death.
Inspired (启发) by this idea, 13-year-old Li Yixuan gave an example. “When we are praised by others, we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’” said Li. “This comes down to the humility (谦逊) that we Chinese have had since ancient times.”
Sun Boyin thought beyond our own culture. In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games. It led some to say it was “strange and uncomfortable” to watch. But it turned out to be “Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”, Sun said.
For some, this can be an enlightening class. “We can’t judge a culture only by what we see”, said Guo Yinyue. “If we want to fully understand a country’s culture. We need to think more about its invisible part so as to have better communication” said Shu Yuyang.
41.What is the unseen part of culture?
A.The part of above the water. B.The way people think.
C.The surface of the story. D.The under part of the iceberg.
42.If somebody says “You are excellent!”, how do Chinese usually reply?
A.You are welcome. B.I am sorry to hear that.
C.You are right, thanks. D.I’m not that great.
43.What is Mirai Moriyama?
A.An actor. B.A student. C.A teacher. D.A player.
44.Which word is close to the underlined word “mourning”?
A.Happiness. B.Sadness. C.Kindness. D.Darkness.
45.Which can be a proper title for the text?
A.Different Countries, Different Cultures B.There are Two Sides of Each Problem
C.The Iceberg Model and Different Cultures D.The Importance of Iceberg Culture
【答案】41.B 42.D 43.A 44.B 45.C
【导语】本文介绍了成都育才中学的学生用冰山模式来理解不同文化的例子,并通过具体事例阐明了文化表面和深层次的不同部分。
41.细节理解题。根据“And the ‘unseen’ part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death.”可知,文化中看不见的部分是人们思考的方式。故选B。
42.细节理解题。根据“we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’”可知,中国人在受到赞扬时通常会谦逊地回答“我没那么好”。故选D。
43.细节理解题。根据“In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games.”可知,Mirai Moriyama是一名演员。故选A。
44.词句猜测题。根据上下文语境“Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”可知,为那些去世的人展示哀悼的一种特殊方式,可推测出“mourning”为“哀悼、悲伤”的意思,与B选项“Sadness”意思匹配。故选B。
45.最佳标题题。通读全文,文章主要讲述成都育才中学的学生用冰山模式来理解不同文化的例子,因此选项C“冰山模式与不同文化”最为恰当。故选C。
B
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 (粗鲁的)!
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’s 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 USA, it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.
46.What do people in western countries usually do while eating?
A.Share the same dishes. B.Talk in a loud voice.
C.Wave knife and fork around. D.Eat food on their own plates.
47.What may people think if a restaurant in China is quiet?
A.It is not very good. B.The boss must be friendly.
C.The dishes must taste good. D.It's a good place for eating.
48.If you pay for a 200-dollar bill in an American restaurant, how much will you leave as a tip?
A.$10. B.S30. C.S60. D.S80.
49.What can we know from the passage?
A.Indian people usually use both hands to eat.
B.Chinese people prefer sharing the cost for meals.
C.It’s rude to leave tips to the waiters in western countries.
D.In England, it’s impolite to make much noise while eating.
50.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Eating Habits B.Leaving a Tip C.Table Manners D.Pay for Meals
【答案】46.D 47.A 48.B 49.D 50.C
【导语】本文介绍了世界各地不同的餐桌礼仪。
46.细节理解题。根据“In western countries, people do not usually share the same dishes. Everyone has his or her own plate of food.”可知,在西方国家,人们通常不分享同样的菜肴。每个人都有自己的一盘食物。故选D。
47.细节理解题。根据“For example, in China it’s OK to be noisy in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant is not noisy, you may think it is not very good.”可知,在中国,如果一家餐馆很安静,你可能会认为它不是很好。故选A。
48.推理判断题。根据“In the USA, it’s common to leave tips of 10%, 15% or 20% of the check.”可知,在美国,付账单的10%、15%或20%的小费是很常见的。因此如果支付200美元的账单,你要留的小费可以是20美元、30美元或40美元,故选B。
49.细节理解题。根据“However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too noisy, other customers might not be happy.”可知,在英国,吃饭时发出噪音是不礼貌的。故选D。
50.标题归纳题。根据“Around the world, people have different ideas about what good table manners are.”可知,本文主要介绍了餐桌礼仪。故选C。

七、阅读填表(10分)
阅读下面短文,根据所读内容,在文后表格空白处填入一个最恰当的单 词。注意:每空只填一个单词。
Every time a new year rolls around, people set out to live a better life. They promise themselves that they will lose weight, find a new job or maybe even take that vacation they’ve always talked about. But why do we make those promises to ourselves and where did this tradition come from? It started with the ancient Babylonians.
Around 4,000 years ago in Babylon, the earliest recorded celebration honoring the coming of a new year was held. The calendar was different back then. The Babylonians started the new year in late March during the first new moon after the spring equinox (春分). The events were known as the Akitu festival (阿基图庆典), which lasted 11 days. They celebrated the rebirth of the sun god. Babylonians made promises in order to make all of their gods happy. They felt this would help them start the new year with better luck. This is how the tradition started.
New Year’s resolutions (决心) continued on with the Romans. When the early Roman calendar no longer went well with Earth’s traveling around the sun, Caesar decided to make a change. He talked to the best astronomers (天文学家) and mathematicians (数学家) of his time and introduced the Julian calendar, which is similar to our Gregorian calendar. Caesar set January 1 as the first day of the year to honor Janus, the god of new beginnings. The Romans celebrated the New Year by offering animals to Janus in a special way.
To this day, the traditions of the ancient Babylonians and Romans are still widely spread all over the world. However, not many people keep the resolutions they make. Google launched a Resolution Map in 2013 to see how many people keep their resolutions. Only eight percent of people were successful in achieving them.
However, with 4,000 years worth of history telling us so, this tradition is certain to live on. That statistic (数字) is hard to argue with.
