任务型阅读（10分）

Some people believe that your nationality can influence your personality（个性）. This is why you might hear someone saying "She is a typical (典型的) Australian" or "He is so French". It seems that people from a certain country share certain similar characteristics（特征）.

French

French people are often seen as romantic and outgoing people with a great love for life, food and wine. They are good at singing and dancing.

Chinese

Chinese are friendly people who are hard-working. They are polite because they are careful about "saving face" when dealing with other people.

Australians

Australians are merry people who spend a lot of time outdoors. They enjoy a slower life. They laugh a lot but sometimes people think they are loud and rude.

Germans

Germans are often described as being serious and careful. They are hard workers and pay a lot of attention to details. However, sometimes people say Germans have no sense of humour.

All these national types can be true for some people, but very wrong for others. For example, youmight meet a German who is a confident singer with a great sense of humour, or an Australian who is shy and quiet!

1.细节判断题。根据第一段最后一句，来自某一特定国家的人们有相似的特征。文章中是“ similar ”，题目中是“same”。故本题错误，填F。

2.细节判断题。根据第二段可知，法国人被看做是浪漫和开朗的人们。文章中是“French ”，题目中是“English”。故本题错误，填F。

3.理解填词题。根据文章第三段第二句可知，这里应该填的是“saving face”。

4.理解填词题。根据文章第五段可知，德国人是辛勤的工人而且很注重细节。故这里填的应该是德国，故填Germany。

5.句意翻译题。nationality国籍，influence影响，故本句翻译为“一些人相信你的国籍可以影响你的个性。”
