What happens when we try freign dishes fr the first time? Mre ften than nt it is like finding urselves in circumstances different frm what is cmfrtably familiar We hesitate and declare them unacceptable. Yet there are n universal standards fr gd cuisine (烹饪); there’s nly badly cked fd. We may nt like sme freign dishes but that has nthing t d with their being inferir r superir. It has everything t d with hw remved they are frm what we knw.
A few years back I wasn’t particularly fnd f Indian dishes with their strng spices. Then an Indian family mved in next dr and I immediately became friends with the lady. Being very friendly peple they kept asking me ver. Seeing as I had n chice, I gave in, went ver and waited in hrrr. They served a lt f strange-lking dishes, whse arma (香味) was inviting enugh fr me t sample them. And I felt srry I did. My tngue felt like it was n fire! But I saw it thrugh t the end s as nt t endanger ur neighburly relatinship. Needless t say, I was asked t cme back fr mre. It tk a few mnths, but I have actually cme t lve sme ht Indian curries and verly hneyed desserts.
In cntrast, American steaks and burgers nw strike me as dwnright dull, althugh I used t lve them. Then there’s Japanese cuisine, which I assciated with a smelly sushi bar next dr until I went n a trip t Japan. I was served dishes f suspicius smell day in day ut and, althugh they didn’t seem particularly delicius, upn my return hme I fund myself repeatedly wandering int that sushi bar arund the crner. The smell I had thught terribly fishy befre nw seemed familiar and muth-watering.
In shrt, I have acquired the taste fr sme freign dishes but nt fr all the fd f any particular cuisine. In a way, the ability t acquire the taste fr new fds has t d with a persn’s ability t accept a culture. The ‘acquired taste’ fr fd ges beynd a taste bud (味蕾) experience. It has a lt t d with what a persn assciates the fd with, like friendly neighburs r a memrable jurney. Similarly, many f us find ur mther’s cking incmparable. But that isn’t necessarily because f ur mther’s superir kitchen skills but because we assciate her cking with the warmth f hme.
43. Which f the fllwing statements is true f the Indian family?
A. They scared the authr a lt.B. They were curius abut the authr.
C They made pleasant smelling dishes.D. They gt an aplgy frm the authr.
44. Cncerning Japan and Japanese fd, the authr says that _________.
A. she was seldm served traditinal fd n her trip.
B. she lved Japanese fd frm her first day in Japan.
C. she was surprised at her actins after she returned hme.
D. she is uninterested in the taste f the strangest Japanese dishes.
45. Accrding t the last paragraph, acquiring new tastes _________.
A. is a sign f hw pen-minded a persn is.
B. depends n hw sensitive yur taste buds are.
C. is like making new friends r ging n a jurney.
D. becmes easier if yur mther isn’t a great ck.
46. Which statement best summarizes the verall message f the article?
A. Travelling is the best way t acquire new tastes.
B. The smells and sight f fd are ften misleading.
C. The stranger the fd, the mre difficult it is t like it.
D. Experiences are crucial in determining fd preferences.

"I was as suspicius as anyne abut getting treated ver the cmputer," said Yung. "But I culd nt have been happier with the service."

Using a "telemedicine" cnnectin, tw specialists helped Suth Ple physician Dr. Timthy Pllard repair the left knee f Dar Gibsn, a meterlgist (气象学家) wh had injured his knee in a fall.
____49____ That has changed in recent years thanks t the develpment f high-speed cmmunicatins netwrks and the push t lwer health csts.
Nnetheless, sme dctrs and patients resist eMedicine, despite s many psitive reviews frm cnsumers wh have actually used it. ____50____
A. The field f eMedicine develped in the 1970s as a way t deliver health care t patients in remte areas, thugh its grwth was slw.
B. Yet "eMedicine" isn't limited t nn-emergency prblems.
C. Hwever, nt all peple think eMedicine is trustwrthy. ·
D. Thse patients ften say it is mre cnvenient and less cstly than traditinal health care.
E. Mst peple dn't knw anything abut eMedicine until they encunter it.
F. As a patient, Taylr was satisfied that the dctr, lcated miles away, checked him several times during the day and night.

What happens when we try freign dishes fr the first time? Mre ften than nt it is like finding urselves in circumstances different frm what is cmfrtably familiar. We hesitate and declare them unacceptable. Yet there are n universal standards fr gd cuisine (烹饪); there’s nly badly cked fd. We may nt like sme freign dishes but that has nthing t d with their being inferir r superir. It has everything t d with hw remved they are frm what we knw.
A few years back I wasn’t particularly fnd f Indian dishes with their strng spices. Then an Indian family mved in next dr and I immediately became friends with the lady. Being very friendly peple they kept asking me ver. Seeing as I had n chice, I gave in, went ver and waited in hrrr. They served a lt f strange-lking dishes, whse arma (香味) was inviting enugh fr me t sample them. And I felt srry I did. My tngue felt like it was n fire! But I saw it thrugh t the end s as nt t endanger ur neighburly relatinship. Needless t say, I was asked t cme back fr mre. It tk a few mnths, but I have actually cme t lve sme ht Indian curries and verly hneyed desserts.
In cntrast, American steaks and burgers nw strike me as dwnright dull, althugh I used t lve them. Then there’s Japanese cuisine, which I assciated with a smelly sushi bar next dr until I went n a trip t Japan. I was served dishes f suspicius smell day in day ut and, althugh they didn’t seem particularly delicius, upn my return hme I fund myself repeatedly wandering int that sushi bar arund the crner. The smell I had thught terribly fishy befre nw seemed familiar and muth-watering.
In shrt, I have acquired the taste fr sme freign dishes but nt fr all the fd f any particular cuisine. In a way, the ability t acquire the taste fr new fds has t d with a persn’s ability t accept a culture. The ‘acquired taste’ fr fd ges beynd a taste bud (味蕾) experience. It has a lt t d with what a persn assciates the fd with, like friendly neighburs r a memrable jurney. Similarly, many f us find ur mther’s cking incmparable. But that isn’t necessarily because f ur mther’s superir kitchen skills but because we assciate her cking with the warmth f hme.

【48题详解】
根据上文“In the 'eICU,' Taylr was treated by a dctr in a different city, via a tw-way camera in the Patient's rm. Frm far away, the dctr evaluated Taylr's cnditin and regularly cmmunicated with him and his nurses. Taylr received medicatins t treat his diabetes and was ut f the hspital's ICU within 48 hurs.(在“电子重症监护室”里，Taylr通过病房里的双向摄像头，接受了另一个城市的医生的治疗。从远处，医生评估了Taylr的病情，并定期与他和他的护士沟通。Taylr接受了治疗糖尿病的药物，并在48小时内离开了医院的重症监护室。)”可知，上文讲述了Taylr通过电子医疗获得远程的及时救治并很快康复出院的例子，F选项(作为一名患者，Taylr对远在数英里之外的医生在白天和晚上多次检查他感到满意。)”衔接上文，描述了患者的体验，F选项中“checked him”与上文中“evaluated Taylr’s cnditin”相呼应，承接上文内容。故选F。

根据下文“That has changed in recent years thanks t the develpment f high-speed cmmunicatins netwrks and the push t lwer health csts.(近年来，由于高速通信网络的发展和降低医疗成本的推动，这种情况已经发生了变化。)”可知，下文提到近年来电子医疗有所发展，空处需要一个句子来补充背景信息，说明eMedicine的历史和发展。选项A（eMedicine领域在20世纪70年代发展起来，目的是为偏远地区的患者提供医疗服务，尽管其发展较为缓慢）提供了历史背景，与下文内容衔接紧密。故选A。
【50题详解】
根据上文“Nnetheless, sme dctrs and patients resist eMedicine, despite s many psitive reviews frm cnsumers wh have actually used it.(尽管如此，尽管有许多实际使用过的消费者的正面评价，但仍有一些医生和患者抵制电子医疗。)”可知，上文提到仍有一些医生和患者抵制电子医疗，C选项(然而，并不是所有人都认为电子医疗是可信的。)直接呼应了上文的内容符合语境，并且C选项中“eMedicine”与上文相呼应，C选项中“nt all peple think”与上文“sme dctrs and patients resist”相呼应。故选C。

51. 必须采取有效的措施阻止本土文化的消失。(measure) （汉译英）
【答案】Effective measures must be taken t prevent the disappearance f lcal culture.
【解析】
【详解】考查句子结构。根据所给词measure可知，本句中使用到短语take effective measures t d sth“采取有效的措施来做某事”，用“effective measures”作主语，因而本句使用被动语态，“必须”用情态动词must，“阻止本土文化的消失”用不定式表目的，表述为t prevent the disappearance f lcal culture。故整句可译为Effective measures must be taken t prevent the disappearance f lcal culture.
52. 我们学校为学生提供了各种活动来发展不同的技能。(a wide range f) （汉译英）
_______________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________
【答案】As the ppulatin grws, human activities have changed the earth’s envirnment t a large extent.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语，状语从句和时态。表示“随着人口增长”可以用as引导时间状语从句，描述事实，用一般现在时，从句主语“人口”用the ppulatin，表示“增长”用动词grw，主语为单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式grws；表示“人类活动”用human activities作主句主语，表示“改变地球的环境”用change the earth’s envirnment，描述人类活动从过去到现在产生的影响，用现在完成时，主语是复数形式，助动词用have，表示“在很大程度上”用t a large extent在句中作状语。故翻译为As the ppulatin grws, human activities have changed the earth’s envirnment t a large extent.
54. 由于我们使用的语言变得更加全球化，一些本地语受到濒临灭绝的威胁(threaten)。（汉译英）
