Reading Comprehension (阅读理解)：（共50分）A)Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）: ( 12分)Most people of the world do not bow to each other, but Japanese people do. They often bow when they meet. Men bow to men and women bow to women. Men and women may also bow to each other, but usually only if they do not know each other. The younger, or more junior person bows more deeply than the older, or more senior person. The Japanese also bow to say thank you for something, or to apologize for something.Schoolchildren do not bow to each other. Schoolgirls say goodbye to each other by waving their hands and saying bye bye. Schoolboys may copy Westerners and pat each other on the back or make “high fives with their hands.Many types of hand gestures have special meanings. You may see Japanese people put their thumb and index finger together to form a circle. This circle represents a coin and this gesture is the sign for money. If the Japanese want to indicate me without using words, they point to themselves by putting a finger to their noses, but Westerners would point to their chests. All young Japanese children learn to make a V sign with their middle and index fingers when someone takes their photograph. In Japan, this sign means peace, but in England this sign means victory. To say No, I dont know or I dont understand, Japanese people wave their hands in front of their faces, so it may be difficult to understand exactly what someone means.Nodding of the head may also be confusing. When Japanese people nod their heads, it does not mean they agree with what you are saying, it means that they understand what you are saying. You must also be careful not to misunderstand a smile. When the Japanese smile they may not be happy, in fact they may be embarrassed.As in most countries in the world, Japanese people use a lot of body language. Some of it you will understand and some of it will be new or confusing to you.74.Japanese people bow _A) occasionally B) sometimes C) often D) never75.Japanese men and women _bow to each other_.A) usually when they know each other B) always when they first meet each otherC) usually when they first meet each other D) always when they know each other76.When Japanese people point to their noses it means_.A) they need to blow their noses B) there is a bad smellC) they are lying D) they are talking about themselves77.When a Japanese person nods, it may mean_. A) I am happy B) I agree C) I understandD) I disagree78.Some body language used in Japan is_.A) international B) Italian C) childish D) only used at home79. The Japanese_.A) dont like using body language B) dont use much body languageC) only use Western body language D) use a lot of body language B) Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语,完成短文): (12分) Sir Alexander Fleming (亚历山大弗莱明), the discoverer of penicillin(青霉素), was on his way to Belfast. The Nobel Prize winner was going to give an important lecture there. When he arrived at Heathrow Airport, he was surprised and annoyed to find his flight overbooked( 超量预订), and that he and other passengers had no seats. The clerk was very apologetic, but _80_ that the government had booked fifty seats at the last moment. That meant that “ordinary” passengers were simply thrown off the flight.“But Ive had this ticket for over a month,” Fleming insisted, “its not _81_ and I must get to Belfast today.” “Im terribly sorry, sir. But the government passengers are all priority(优先) passengers traveling on important business. Its _82_ for them to take a later flight.” Just as Fleming was going to _83_ what the important business was, a group of government passengers arrived to check in. Fleming turned to the leader of the group.“Id like to know what is so urgent about your business that we ordinary passengers_84_wait for another flight.” The man replied, “Oh, its a matter of _85_ urgency. Sir Alexander Fleming is giving a lecture in Belfast tonight, and we cant miss it!” 80. A) insisted81. A) fair82 A) reasonable 83.A) know84.A) must 85.A) littleB) spokeB) right B) funny B) discussB) shouldB) greatC) told C) true C) impossibleC) requireC) oughtC) someD) explainedD) realD) unnecessaryD) askedD) have toD) bitC) Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使内容通顺, 每空格限填一词，首字母已给): (14分)Sleep is not the same every night. We experience some deep sleep and some active sleep(积极睡眠), which is when dreams happen. You might think sleepwalking(梦游) would happen in active sleep, but a person isnt physically active d_86_ active sleep. Sleepwalking usually happens in the first few hours of sleep in the stage called slow-wave(慢波) or deep sleep. Not all sleepwalkers a_87_ walk. Some simply sit up or stand in bed or act like theyre awake when, in fact, theyre asleep! Most, however, do get up and move around for a few seconds or for as long as half an hour.Sleepwalkers e_88_ are open, but they dont see the same way they do when theyre awake and often think theyre in different rooms of the house or different places altogether. Sleepwalkers tend (往往会) to go back to bed on their own and they wont r_89_ it in the morning. Doctors say sleepwalking sometimes occurs when a person is sick, has a fever, is not getting e_90_ sleep, or is stressed. If sleepwalking occurs frequently, every night or so, its a good idea for your mom or dad to take you to see your doctor. But occasional(偶然的) sleepwalking generally isnt something to worry about, a_91_ it may look funny or even scary（惊恐的）for the people who see a sleepwalker in action.Its important, of course, that the person is kept safe. Precautions(预防措施) should be t_92_ so the person is less likely to fall down, run into something, or walk out the front door while sleepwalking.D) Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：（12分）The Japanese are well known to have some of the longest life expectancies(长寿) in the world. They also enjoy the lowest obesity（肥胖症）rate in the developed countries. Whats their secret? Their healthy diet contributes a lot. “Eating” with your eyesAn important feature of the Japanese diet is the visual appeal(视觉吸引) of food. Food with attractive appearance is presented on pretty little dishes and plates. This way of dining encourages you to “eat” with your eyes, by enjoying the beauty of the food. The result is that you slow down to savor（品尝）every bite, which means eating less, because it gives your brain time to realize youre full.Smaller portions（量）In Japan, food is served on separate small plates and in bowls instead of on one big plate. Diners take turns having a little taste of everything. Serving smaller portions may be one of the best secrets for healthy eating and weight loss. Research shows that when were served more, we tend to eat itwhether we are hungry or not.Vegetable crazeJapanese prefer fresh vegetables and fruits. Lots of fresh vegetables and fruits are eaten daily in the Japanese diet. Japan is kind of a “vegetable-crazed”（嗜蔬菜如命的）nation. When Japanese women were asked which home-cooked meals they most loved to prepare for their families“mixed vegetable simmered（炖）in soup” came out on top. Green beans, onions, tomatoes, green peppers, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potatoes all have a place in the Japanese diet. Vegetables are served simmered in soup, stirfried（炒）in a small bit of canola oil（菜油）or lightly steamed(清蒸). All these methods keep a maximum amount of nutrients(营养成分).Plenty of fishJapanese eat a lot of fish. Japan account for（占比例）only 2% of the worlds population，but its people eat 10% of the worlds fish. Fish, especially fatty fish, for example, salmon（三文鱼）and tuna（金枪鱼）are Japanese favorites. Eating a lot of fish help them to reduce the risk of heart disease. 93. What lowest rate do Japanese have in the developed countries?94. What is an important feature of the Japanese diet?95. How many special points about the Japanese diet are mentioned in the passage?96. Food is not served on one big plate in Japan, is it?97. Why do Japanese eat a lot of fish?98. What is your view on the Japanese diet?VII.
