Here I must put in a few words about my experience here in China. If I have 36 with a Chinese host, he always presses 37 food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied it of the previous helping. That often makes me 38 very awkward. I have to eat the food even if I don’t 39 it, because it is considered 40 manners in the West to 41 one’s food on the plate.
I have also 42 that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often 43 the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or 44 . This might be good manners in China, but it is certainly 45 in the West.
In the United States, it is 46 to keep asking someone again and again or press something on him. Americans are very 47 . If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ 48 ” Here’s an example: When an American is offered 49 by the host, and he doesn’t like beer, he will probably say, “No, thanks. I just don’t feel like it. I’ll 50 some diet Pepsi-Cola if you have it. ” That is 51 an American will do.
52 are taught that “Honesty is the best policy. But in some countries, courtesy(谦虚)might be more important than 53 . So when I am here in China, I have to observe the 54 here. But when you go to 55 , you had better “do as the Romans do”.

36.【解析】选B。通读全文可知,本文描述用餐的事,故选B项。
37.【解析】选A。more更多的,结合上下文可知该句句意:若我与中国主人一起用餐,我刚吃完前一次夹给我的菜,他总是马上又在我的碟子里堆上更多的菜。
38.【解析】选C。这常常使我感到尴尬。
39.【解析】选B。即使是我不喜欢吃的食物,我也得吃。
40.【解析】选B。因为在西方,把食物剩在碟子里是不礼貌的。bad manners不礼貌的。
41.【解析】选B。leave sth. 剩下,留下。
42.【解析】选A。作者因是在陈述自己亲身经历的事,因此要用noticed,而不用C项“听说”或D项“通知”。
43.【解析】选B。由上下文及中国风俗可得知答案为B. refuses“拒绝”而不是A项“接受”。
44.【解析】选A。由本句前半部分的food和drink可知应选A“口渴”。句意:我还注意到,当一位中国人坐在美国人举行的宴席上时,他常常辞谢递给他的食物或饮料,尽管事实上他还饿着或渴着。
45.【解析】选C。由本句but转折可知在西方这种习俗应是相反,即:在中国这可能是得体的举止,但在西方,这却决算不得是文明的。
46.【解析】选A。在美国,一再问人家要不要食物,或强塞食物给人是不礼貌的。
47.【解析】选B。由上下文的对比可知作者想说美国人的性格应是B项“直率的”。句意:美国人很直率。如果他们想要什么,他们会提出。如果不想要,他们就说:“不,谢谢。”
48.【解析】选C。由下面作者给出的例子可知答案选C。
49.【解析】选B。例如:主人给一位美国客人敬啤酒,而他又不喜欢喝啤酒,他就会说: “不,谢谢。我不太想喝啤酒。如果您有‘百事可乐’,我倒想来点。”
50.【解析】选D。diet与take搭配,这里意为“喝点什么”。
51.【解析】选B。考查表语从句,从句中do缺宾语故用what引导该句。句意:美国人都会照此办理。
52.【解析】选C。由上文一直以美国人为例进行的说明可知该空应为C项“美国人”。
53.【解析】选B。由上一句可知美国人遵循“诚实是最好的方针”,而不是A礼貌,及D命令。句意:但在有些国家,彬彬有礼比诚实更为重要。
54.【解析】选A。本段前两句说的是各地用餐时的不同习俗,故应选A“风俗习惯”。所以当我在中国的时候,我必须遵循这里的习俗。
55.【解析】选C。本文一直在说中国人和美国人在用餐方面的不同,故应是:若你们去美国,最好还是“入乡随俗”。

科目:高中英语 来源:2010年盐城南洋中学高二下学期期末考试英语卷 题型:阅读理解
Having driven almost thirty hours, I decided to stay in South Carolina for a few days. The next morning, I purchased a three-day fishing license and bait (饵料) before heading to the lake.
Opening my trunk, I carefully took out my fishing gear (用具), put it on the lake’s edge, baited up and began to fish.
“Good morning,” said someone, walking up from behind me.
Turning around, I saw a game warden (猎场管理员) with a clip-board.
“Good morning,” I said, nodding my head.
“Catch any fish?” he asked.
“No sir, just relaxing and killing time.”
“Can I see your fishing license?”
I handed him the license I had purchased at the bait shop.
“Can I see your driver’s license, too?” he requested.
“I see the name on the driver’s license is spelled Kiser and the name on the fishing license is Kaiser,” said the warden.
“The gentleman at the bait shop must have written it wrong,” I told him.
“Well, I’m afraid I’ll have to write you up for fishing with an invalid license and take away your fishing gear.”
“You’ve got to be kidding,” I responded, with a surprised look on my face.
Sure enough I was written up and my fishing gear taken away. I was told that I would have to pay a fine and that my stuff would be sold at auction(拍卖).
I stood there almost in tears as he drove away. Those rods and reels were very special to me. I had used them over twenty years, fishing with my friends, who were now all dead.
After returning home in Georgia, I telephoned South Carolina trying to explain the situation, but no one would listen. I was told that the Department of Fish and Game had a “zero tolerance” for fishing and hunting violations. Finally, in tears I paid the fine and gave up the fight.
Nine months later, I received a letter. I had no idea who it was from as there was no return address. On a plain piece of notebook paper was written “Auction for the Department of Fish and Game held this Saturday at 11:00 am.”
On Saturday, at six in the morning I headed to South Carolina. By ten o’clock I had found the auction. There were numerous boats and piles upon piles of fishing equipment. All at once, there it was—my wonderful stuff all thrown in a pile as if it was worth nothing.
As the auction began I took my seat. In my wallet was twenty-seven dollars. For more than an hour I waited for my property to be brought to the auction block.
“We have three rods and reels here. I guess we will sell this as a unit,” said the auctioneer.
“50 dollars,” yelled someone in the crowd.
“51 dollars,” yelled another man.
I rose from my seat and walked out of the auction.
“66 dollars,” I heard as the bidding continued.
“100 dollars,” came another bid. The auction became silent.
“100 dollars once, 100 dollars twice, 100 dollars three times. Sold for 100 dollars,” went the auctioneer.
I walked to my truck, got in and just sat there. Suddenly I heard something hit the side of my truck. Turning around, I saw the back of a man putting my three rods and reels into my truck. It was the same game warden who wrote me the ticket almost a year ago!
As I got out of the truck he stuck out his hand and said, “I wasn’t wrong. It’s the law that is wrong.”
I shook his hand, thanked him and drove away. I cried as I crossed the South Carolina Georgia state line.
1. Who wrote a letter to the writer telling him about the auction?
A. The Department of Fish and Game. B. The game warden.
C. A person unmentioned in the passage. D. The auction organizers.
2.Why did the writer walk out of the auction while it was going on?
A. He realized he was unable to get back his fishing gear.
B. He was too nervous to stay inside till the auction ended.
C. He couldn’t bear hearing people selling his fishing gear.
D. He knew the game warden was waiting for him outside.
3.What did the game warden mean by saying “It’s the law that is wrong”?
A. It didn’t make any sense to prohibit people from fishing freely in South Carolina.
B. The writer did break the law by fishing with an invalid license whatever the reason.
C. The writer should have been allowed a chance to explain and get his things back.
D. The auction should not have been held to sell the boats and fishing equipment.
