题目内容
【题目】A young American woman worked in a school in Shanghai. 【1】 she came to China,she knew little about the Chinese culture of language. One day on her way to school,she went to a bank 【2】 (draw) some money.To 【3】 surprise,the bank clerk(职员) asked her if she had had her lunch.She was surprised at such 【4】 question because in the American culture it would mean that the bank clerk is inviting her to lunch.Between unmarried young people it can also mean the young man’s interest in dating the girl.Since this bank clerk 【5】 (be) a stranger to the American woman,she was very puzzled(困惑的),and quickly answered that she had 【6】 (eat) already.After this she went on to school and was even 【7】 surprised when one of the teachers asked her the same question.

试题分析:本文通过一个小故事告诉大家语言存在文化差异。
【1】考查连词。根据语境可知,该句句意为:在她来中国之前,她对中国的语言文化知之甚少。故该空填连词Before.
【2】考查非谓语。分析句式可知,该处应为非谓语作目的状语,故该空填to draw.
【3】考查代词。该处语意为:让她吃惊的是:to her surprise,故该空填her.
【4】考查冠词。根据语境可知,该处语意为:对于这样的一个问题(such a question)她很吃惊。故表示填不定冠词a.
【5】考查谓语。该篇文章描述的是过去的事情,使用一般过去时为基本时态,故该原因状语从句的谓语be动词正确形式为:was.
【6】考查动词的过去分词形式。该处谓语时态应为过去完成时had done(表示过去的过去),故该空填eaten.
【7】考查形容词比较级。根据语境可知,当学校的一位老师也问她有没有吃午饭时,她显然是更加惊讶不解more surprised了。故该空填more.
【8】考查名词。该空为句子表语且为“邀请”的名词形式,故应填invitation.
【9】考查固定用法。sb spend time/money (in) doing sth,故该空应填(in )trying.
【10】考查固定短语。be concerned about:关心;挂念,故该空填concerned.
