W: If you have an average of 10 people on each of those six social networks who send you messages every day, that’s at least 60 conversations! Let’s say you spend as little as one minute on each conversation… That’s a whole hour! But you would probably spend two or three times that much for each person… What a waste of time!

W: You should buy one of those strings so you can wear them round your neck when you don’t have them on.
M: I don’t like them. They make me look old. I’m only 28 — almost too young to be married!
W: Well, if your colleagues see you wandering around looking for your glasses, they might assume you are far older.

W: I heard that you can’t wear the clothes you want. Is that true?

M: I just completed a book report, but I have a quiz on Africa when I get back. How about you?

W: What’s happening on the bridge?
M: I couldn’t tell. I just saw the road signs, so I turned around and took the long way here.
W: Well, it looks like we missed the worst of the weather. It was pouring this morning.
M: That’s good. I can see the sky is clearing up and the wind has stopped. What are those tents for?
W: They’re for the food fair. It will close soon, so you’d better get over there if you want to eat. Unfortunately, you came a bit late for the music.
M: So what is this event all about, anyway?
W: It’s just a community festival we have every year. All the food, entertainment and activities represent the many cultures in our city.
M: Cool. What’s happening across the street at the stadium? I saw that the local TV stations are all set up there.
W: That’s where all the dancing and sports events will take place. This area is for families. I saved us this spot on the grass here.
M: That sounds fun. I’ll go grab something at the tents, and then meet you back here.

Jin was the best-selling Chinese author of all time, with over 300 million copies of his works sold worldwide. Jin was born in Zhejiang Province, the second of seven children. Even as a boy, Jin enjoyed writing. He was admitted to the Department of Foreign Languages at the Central University of Political Affairs in Chongqing, but he left to study international law at Soochow University. Jin was planning to have a career in the foreign service, but in 1955, he began writing his first martial arts novel, The Book and the Sword. In 1957, while still working on wuxia novels, Jin got a job writing movie scripts at Great Wall Movie Enterprises Ltd. and Phoenix Film Company. In 1959, Jin co-founded the Hong Kong newspaper Ming Pao with a high school classmate. Many of Jin’s most famous wuxia novels appeared in the newspaper, including The Smiling, Proud Wanderer and The Deer and the Cauldron. Jin Yong fused martial arts, fantasy, history and romance into must-read novels. Many years after he had stopped writing novels, Jin earned his Doctor of Philosophy from Cambridge University in 2010.

You’re so young right now, but I hope this letter will be helpful to you one day when you’re older. I feel it is my responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image. In a lot of women’s eyes, I’ve probably already failed in this aspect due to a lot of pink Barbie dolls in Vera’s room right now.
But I will say this about Barbie dolls: I played with Barbie dolls for many years when I was growing up and here I have a healthy body and a positive image. I have a master’s degree, a successful career and a published book. If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity(女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt whether I could list all of these achievements.
It’s hard for women not to worry about our weight or to wish we could afford more stylish clothes. It’s hard not to want someone else’s hair or eyelashes. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one another sometimes. The thing I’ll tell you is this: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in all the world is probably the girl who wants to change herself more than anyone else.
Don’t let that message carry any weight within yourselves. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that they’re scared. I want to tell you that I have never in my life felt more beautiful than when I have stood my tallest.
24. What does the author think about Barbie dolls?
A. They did no harm to her image. B. They enable her to achieve a lot.
C. They prevented her development. D. They contributed to her promotion.
25. What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. It’s women’s nature to be envious. B. It’s easy to read women’s thoughts.
C. Women like to be close to each other. D. Women tend to pursue a perfect appearance.
26. What does the author suggest her daughters do?
A. Try to be the most beautiful. B. Stand tall with love and toughness.
C. Compare themselves with others to improve. D. Push others down on the way to be the tallest.
27. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the letter?
A. To tell her daughters what real beauty is. B. To warn her daughters of the trouble in life.
C. To share with her daughters all her experience. D. To persuade her daughters to follow her example.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。这篇短文有关作者告诉自己的女儿什么才是真正的美丽。女性都喜欢追求完美的外表，而真正的美丽是带着爱和坚强挺直腰板。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity(女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt whether I could list all of these achievements.可知作者认为如果芭比娃娃真的对我的女性气质和自我形象造成如此大的伤害，我非常怀疑自己能否拥有列出的所有这些成就。即作者认为芭比娃娃对她的自我形象无害，故选A。
25题详解】
细节理解题。第三段第一句It’s hard for women not to worry about our weight or to wish we could afford more stylish clothes.可知女人很难不担心自己的体重，也很难不希望自己能买得起更时尚的衣服。即可知女性女人往往倾向于追求完美的外表。故选D。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that they’re scared.可知作者告诉女儿：你是如此充满爱和光明，你应该让它通过你的每一秒。如果有人因为你站得高而把你推下去，那就把你自己推回去，站得更高，要知道他们把你推下去的最初原因只是他们害怕。即作者希望女儿带着爱和坚强挺直腰板。故选B。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句I feel it is my responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image.（我觉得我有责任引导你们走上一条相对健康的道路，这条道路涉及到美丽和自我形象。）以及文章主要内容可知文章的主要目的是作者为了告诉女儿什么才是真正的美丽，故选A。
C
For people, many other animals, family matters. Consider how many jobs go to relatives. Or how an ant will cruelly attack intruder(入侵的)ants but rescue injured, closely related nest-mates. There are good evolutionary reasons to aid relatives, after all. Now, it seems, family feelings may stir in plants as well.
A Canadian biologist planted the seed of the idea more than a decade ago, but many plant biologists regarded it as heretical—plants lack the nervous systems that enable animals to recognize kin(家族), so how can they know their relatives? But with a series of recent findings, the belief that plants really do care for their most genetically close peers—in a quiet, planty way—is taking root. Some species control how far their roots spread, others change how many flowers they produce, and a few tilt(倾斜)or shift their leaves to minimize shading of neighboring plants, favoring related individuals.
“We need to recognize that plants not only sense whether it’s light or dark or if they’ve been touched, but also whom they are interacting with,” says Susan Dudley, a plant evolutionary ecologist, whose early plant kin recognition studies sparked the interest of many scientists.
Beyond broadening views of plant behavior, the new work may have a practical side. In September 2018, a team in China reported that rice planted with kin grows better, a finding that suggested family ties can be used to improve crop yields. “It seems anytime anyone looks for it, they find a kin effect,” says Andre Kessler, a chemical ecologist at Cornell University.
28. Why are ants mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To show how cruel ants are to their enemies.
B. To lay foundation for the idea of plants’ family feelings.
C. To introduce the topic of how family matters to animals.
D. To explain why people usually give more jobs to their relatives.
29. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “heretical”?
A. Indescribable. B. Understandable. C. Impossible. D. Traditional.
30. What may be the plants’ way of expressing their care for relatives?
A. They stop producing flowers to avoid competition.
B. They spread their roots far so as to protect their peers.
C. They care for their injured peers by silently taking roots.
D. They move their leaves to share sunlight with their close peers.
31. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Different plants mustn’t be planted together.
B. Corn planted with corn can produce more than that with rice.
C. China has put the idea into wide practice and achieved great success.
D. The closer rice is planted with their relatives the more they will produce.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。根据随着最近一系列研究发现，和蚂蚁类似，植物也存在家庭情感。这一发现的实际价值是可以用来提高作物产量。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。第一段最后一、二句There are good evolutionary reasons to aid relatives, after all. Now, it seems, family feelings may stir in plants as well. 可知进化的原因是要帮助亲属，现在看来，家庭情感可能也会在植物中产生影响。可知第一段提到蚂蚁的目的是为下文提到植物家庭情感做铺垫，故选B。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文植物缺乏能让动物识别亲缘关系的神经系统，所以它们怎么能认识自己的亲戚呢?因此可推测上文中提到的许多植物生物学家认为植物有家庭情感的想法是“不可能的；荒谬的”，故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句Some species control how far their roots spread, others change how many flowers they produce, and a few tilt(倾斜)or shift their leaves to minimize shading of neighboring plants, favoring related individuals.可知一些物种控制着它们的根系伸展的距离，另一些则改变着它们开出的花的数量，还有一些则倾斜或移动它们的叶子，以尽量减少邻近植物的阴影，从而有利于相关的个体。即植物对亲属表现关心的方式为他们移动树叶与亲密的同伴分享阳光。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段第二句a team in China reported that rice planted with kin grows better, a finding that suggested family ties can be used to improve crop yields可知中国的一个研究小组报告说，近亲种植的水稻生长得更好，这一发现表明，家庭关系可以用来提高作物产量。即可推测玉米和玉米种在一起比和大米种在一起的产量高。故选B。
D
Differences in time zones complicate international phone calls. But even more important are different concepts of time and approaches to time in different cultures.
People from the USA as well as other North Americans believe “Time is money”. This value of time is rooted in their ancestors. Early in the 17th century, their ancestors arrived on the Atlantic coast, a new, undeveloped land. To survive in the tough environment, they had to struggle day and night. Time meant so much to them that they had not even one second to waste. After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down. Thus far, the Americans are still eager to finish things quickly and are impatient with too reflective(深思熟虑的) people.
In some countries, the American work style of speeding everything up will have no significance. In the Arab East, the more important you are, the faster service you get. Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting. In the Middle East, a deadline, which is often established to show the degree of urgency or importance of work, will do nothing but stop the Middle Easterners from working, because they consider it rude and overly demanding.
Another aspect reflecting different concepts of time is the classification of monochronic-time and polychronic-time by Edward T Hall. People from monchronic(共时性的) cultures, such as the Germans, the Austrians, the Swiss and the Americans, do only one important thing at a time. In polychromic(多元时间模式的) cultures, people such as Arab, Asians and Latin Americans take an entirely opposite approach. They do several things at once. Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily. Miscommuication will arise when people from two cultures contact. Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly, not only by private phone calls, but also by long conversations with other people and even the neighbor’s children, which displeased and even annoyed him.
32. Why did the ancestors of the North Americans believe “Time is money”?
A. They had to work efficiently to survive. B. They got the idea from their past generations.
C. They didn’t like to deal with reflective people. D. They formed the habit of finishing work ahead of time.
33. What can be concluded from Paragraph 3?
A. Deadlines will make American people angry.
B. In the Arab East, you’d better speed everything up.
C. Middle Easterners can’t deal with demanding work.
D. People from the Arab East attach importance to relationship.
34. What can we learn about people from monochronic cultures?
A. They tend to interrupt others constantly. B. They can’t tolerate lateness or interruptions.
C. They are more likely to change their schedules. D. They like to schedule several activities at the same time.
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The importance of the diversity of culture B. The relationship between efficiency and culture
C. Different time values in different cultures D. Monochronic culture and polychronic culture
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章就不同的文化有不同的时间价值观这一话题展开论述。首先说明了北美人“时间就是金钱”概念的来源和发展，接着论述了在阿拉伯东部和中东对于时间的看法和文化，最后以共时性时间模式和多元时间模式这两种时间概念的差异来说明“不同的文化有不同的时间价值”这一话题。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。第二段中To survive in the tough environment, they had to struggle day and night.可知北美人的祖先为了在艰苦的环境中生存，他们不得不日夜奋斗。以及第二段倒数第二句After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down.可知他们经过了十几年的奋斗，发现了有效利用时间的价值，并将其代代相传。即可知北美人的祖先认为“时间就是金钱”的原因是为了生存，他们必须高效地工作。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。第三段第三句Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting.可知Arab East的人们相信近亲绝对优先;非亲属则只能等待。可推理Arab East人非常看重血缘关系，故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily.可知多元时间模式文化里截止日期，时间表，都是很随意的，并且经常很容易改变。这与共时性文化是完全不同的，可推理共时性文化的人不能容忍迟到，推迟；以及最后一句Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly可知来自共时性文化的美国人Charlies Hawkins无法忍受来自多元时间模式文化的印度人不断打断约会，可推理得来自共时性文化的人无法忍受别人的打断。综上可知来自共时性文化的人无法忍受迟到或是打断，故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句But even more important are different concepts of time and approaches to time in different cultures.以及文章主要内容为不同文化中对时间的不同概念和对待时间的不同方式，故选C。

W: They’re for the food fair. It will close soon, so you’d better get over there if you want to eat. Unfortunately, you came a bit late for the music.
M: So what is this event all about, anyway?
W: It’s just a community festival we have every year. All the food, entertainment and activities represent the many cultures in our city.
M: Cool. What’s happening across the street at the stadium? I saw that the local TV stations are all set up there.
W: That’s where all the dancing and sports events will take place. This area is for families. I saved us this spot on the grass here.
M: That sounds fun. I’ll go grab something at the tents, and then meet you back here.

Jin was the best-selling Chinese author of all time, with over 300 million copies of his works sold worldwide. Jin was born in Zhejiang Province, the second of seven children. Even as a boy, Jin enjoyed writing. He was admitted to the Department of Foreign Languages at the Central University of Political Affairs in Chongqing, but he left to study international law at Soochow University. Jin was planning to have a career in the foreign service, but in 1955, he began writing his first martial arts novel, The Book and the Sword. In 1957, while still working on wuxia novels, Jin got a job writing movie scripts at Great Wall Movie Enterprises Ltd. and Phoenix Film Company. In 1959, Jin co-founded the Hong Kong newspaper Ming Pao with a high school classmate. Many of Jin’s most famous wuxia novels appeared in the newspaper, including The Smiling, Proud Wanderer and The Deer and the Cauldron. Jin Yong fused martial arts, fantasy, history and romance into must-read novels. Many years after he had stopped writing novels, Jin earned his Doctor of Philosophy from Cambridge University in 2010.

You’re so young right now, but I hope this letter will be helpful to you one day when you’re older. I feel it is my responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image. In a lot of women’s eyes, I’ve probably already failed in this aspect due to a lot of pink Barbie dolls in Vera’s room right now.
But I will say this about Barbie dolls: I played with Barbie dolls for many years when I was growing up and here I have a healthy body and a positive image. I have a master’s degree, a successful career and a published book. If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity(女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt whether I could list all of these achievements.
It’s hard for women not to worry about our weight or to wish we could afford more stylish clothes. It’s hard not to want someone else’s hair or eyelashes. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one another sometimes. The thing I’ll tell you is this: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in all the world is probably the girl who wants to change herself more than anyone else.
Don’t let that message carry any weight within yourselves. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that they’re scared. I want to tell you that I have never in my life felt more beautiful than when I have stood my tallest.
24. What does the author think about Barbie dolls?
A. They did no harm to her image. B. They enable her to achieve a lot.
C. They prevented her development. D. They contributed to her promotion.
25. What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. It’s women’s nature to be envious. B. It’s easy to read women’s thoughts.
C. Women like to be close to each other. D. Women tend to pursue a perfect appearance.
26. What does the author suggest her daughters do?
A. Try to be the most beautiful. B. Stand tall with love and toughness.
C. Compare themselves with others to improve. D. Push others down on the way to be the tallest.
27. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the letter?
A. To tell her daughters what real beauty is. B. To warn her daughters of the trouble in life.
C. To share with her daughters all her experience. D. To persuade her daughters to follow her example.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。这篇短文有关作者告诉自己的女儿什么才是真正的美丽。女性都喜欢追求完美的外表，而真正的美丽是带着爱和坚强挺直腰板。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity(女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt whether I could list all of these achievements.可知作者认为如果芭比娃娃真的对我的女性气质和自我形象造成如此大的伤害，我非常怀疑自己能否拥有列出的所有这些成就。即作者认为芭比娃娃对她的自我形象无害，故选A。
25题详解】
细节理解题。第三段第一句It’s hard for women not to worry about our weight or to wish we could afford more stylish clothes.可知女人很难不担心自己的体重，也很难不希望自己能买得起更时尚的衣服。即可知女性女人往往倾向于追求完美的外表。故选D。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that they’re scared.可知作者告诉女儿：你是如此充满爱和光明，你应该让它通过你的每一秒。如果有人因为你站得高而把你推下去，那就把你自己推回去，站得更高，要知道他们把你推下去的最初原因只是他们害怕。即作者希望女儿带着爱和坚强挺直腰板。故选B。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句I feel it is my responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image.（我觉得我有责任引导你们走上一条相对健康的道路，这条道路涉及到美丽和自我形象。）以及文章主要内容可知文章的主要目的是作者为了告诉女儿什么才是真正的美丽，故选A。
C
For people, many other animals, family matters. Consider how many jobs go to relatives. Or how an ant will cruelly attack intruder(入侵的)ants but rescue injured, closely related nest-mates. There are good evolutionary reasons to aid relatives, after all. Now, it seems, family feelings may stir in plants as well.
A Canadian biologist planted the seed of the idea more than a decade ago, but many plant biologists regarded it as heretical—plants lack the nervous systems that enable animals to recognize kin(家族), so how can they know their relatives? But with a series of recent findings, the belief that plants really do care for their most genetically close peers—in a quiet, planty way—is taking root. Some species control how far their roots spread, others change how many flowers they produce, and a few tilt(倾斜)or shift their leaves to minimize shading of neighboring plants, favoring related individuals.
“We need to recognize that plants not only sense whether it’s light or dark or if they’ve been touched, but also whom they are interacting with,” says Susan Dudley, a plant evolutionary ecologist, whose early plant kin recognition studies sparked the interest of many scientists.
Beyond broadening views of plant behavior, the new work may have a practical side. In September 2018, a team in China reported that rice planted with kin grows better, a finding that suggested family ties can be used to improve crop yields. “It seems anytime anyone looks for it, they find a kin effect,” says Andre Kessler, a chemical ecologist at Cornell University.
28. Why are ants mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To show how cruel ants are to their enemies.
B. To lay foundation for the idea of plants’ family feelings.
C. To introduce the topic of how family matters to animals.
D. To explain why people usually give more jobs to their relatives.
29. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “heretical”?
A. Indescribable. B. Understandable. C. Impossible. D. Traditional.
30. What may be the plants’ way of expressing their care for relatives?
A. They stop producing flowers to avoid competition.
B. They spread their roots far so as to protect their peers.
C. They care for their injured peers by silently taking roots.
D. They move their leaves to share sunlight with their close peers.
31. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Different plants mustn’t be planted together.
B. Corn planted with corn can produce more than that with rice.
C. China has put the idea into wide practice and achieved great success.
D. The closer rice is planted with their relatives the more they will produce.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。根据随着最近一系列研究发现，和蚂蚁类似，植物也存在家庭情感。这一发现的实际价值是可以用来提高作物产量。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。第一段最后一、二句There are good evolutionary reasons to aid relatives, after all. Now, it seems, family feelings may stir in plants as well. 可知进化的原因是要帮助亲属，现在看来，家庭情感可能也会在植物中产生影响。可知第一段提到蚂蚁的目的是为下文提到植物家庭情感做铺垫，故选B。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文植物缺乏能让动物识别亲缘关系的神经系统，所以它们怎么能认识自己的亲戚呢?因此可推测上文中提到的许多植物生物学家认为植物有家庭情感的想法是“不可能的；荒谬的”，故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句Some species control how far their roots spread, others change how many flowers they produce, and a few tilt(倾斜)or shift their leaves to minimize shading of neighboring plants, favoring related individuals.可知一些物种控制着它们的根系伸展的距离，另一些则改变着它们开出的花的数量，还有一些则倾斜或移动它们的叶子，以尽量减少邻近植物的阴影，从而有利于相关的个体。即植物对亲属表现关心的方式为他们移动树叶与亲密的同伴分享阳光。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段第二句a team in China reported that rice planted with kin grows better, a finding that suggested family ties can be used to improve crop yields可知中国的一个研究小组报告说，近亲种植的水稻生长得更好，这一发现表明，家庭关系可以用来提高作物产量。即可推测玉米和玉米种在一起比和大米种在一起的产量高。故选B。
D
Differences in time zones complicate international phone calls. But even more important are different concepts of time and approaches to time in different cultures.
People from the USA as well as other North Americans believe “Time is money”. This value of time is rooted in their ancestors. Early in the 17th century, their ancestors arrived on the Atlantic coast, a new, undeveloped land. To survive in the tough environment, they had to struggle day and night. Time meant so much to them that they had not even one second to waste. After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down. Thus far, the Americans are still eager to finish things quickly and are impatient with too reflective(深思熟虑的) people.
In some countries, the American work style of speeding everything up will have no significance. In the Arab East, the more important you are, the faster service you get. Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting. In the Middle East, a deadline, which is often established to show the degree of urgency or importance of work, will do nothing but stop the Middle Easterners from working, because they consider it rude and overly demanding.
Another aspect reflecting different concepts of time is the classification of monochronic-time and polychronic-time by Edward T Hall. People from monchronic(共时性的) cultures, such as the Germans, the Austrians, the Swiss and the Americans, do only one important thing at a time. In polychromic(多元时间模式的) cultures, people such as Arab, Asians and Latin Americans take an entirely opposite approach. They do several things at once. Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily. Miscommuication will arise when people from two cultures contact. Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly, not only by private phone calls, but also by long conversations with other people and even the neighbor’s children, which displeased and even annoyed him.
32. Why did the ancestors of the North Americans believe “Time is money”?
A. They had to work efficiently to survive. B. They got the idea from their past generations.
C. They didn’t like to deal with reflective people. D. They formed the habit of finishing work ahead of time.
33. What can be concluded from Paragraph 3?
A. Deadlines will make American people angry.
B. In the Arab East, you’d better speed everything up.
C. Middle Easterners can’t deal with demanding work.
D. People from the Arab East attach importance to relationship.
34. What can we learn about people from monochronic cultures?
A. They tend to interrupt others constantly. B. They can’t tolerate lateness or interruptions.
C. They are more likely to change their schedules. D. They like to schedule several activities at the same time.
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The importance of the diversity of culture B. The relationship between efficiency and culture
C. Different time values in different cultures D. Monochronic culture and polychronic culture
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章就不同的文化有不同的时间价值观这一话题展开论述。首先说明了北美人“时间就是金钱”概念的来源和发展，接着论述了在阿拉伯东部和中东对于时间的看法和文化，最后以共时性时间模式和多元时间模式这两种时间概念的差异来说明“不同的文化有不同的时间价值”这一话题。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。第二段中To survive in the tough environment, they had to struggle day and night.可知北美人的祖先为了在艰苦的环境中生存，他们不得不日夜奋斗。以及第二段倒数第二句After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down.可知他们经过了十几年的奋斗，发现了有效利用时间的价值，并将其代代相传。即可知北美人的祖先认为“时间就是金钱”的原因是为了生存，他们必须高效地工作。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。第三段第三句Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting.可知Arab East的人们相信近亲绝对优先;非亲属则只能等待。可推理Arab East人非常看重血缘关系，故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily.可知多元时间模式文化里截止日期，时间表，都是很随意的，并且经常很容易改变。这与共时性文化是完全不同的，可推理共时性文化的人不能容忍迟到，推迟；以及最后一句Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly可知来自共时性文化的美国人Charlies Hawkins无法忍受来自多元时间模式文化的印度人不断打断约会，可推理得来自共时性文化的人无法忍受别人的打断。综上可知来自共时性文化的人无法忍受迟到或是打断，故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句But even more important are different concepts of time and approaches to time in different cultures.以及文章主要内容为不同文化中对时间的不同概念和对待时间的不同方式，故选C。
