【题目】

—Jenny took the 8:00 bus to Shanghai this morning.

—Really? She ______ the 9:00 train. It's much more comfortable and safer to travel by train.

A. could have taken B. should take

C. must have taken D. can take

【答案】A

【解析】 句意:——Jenny今天早晨乘坐8点的大巴去上海了。——真的吗?她本来能够坐9点的火车。坐火车会更舒适,也更安全。此句是对过去情况的相反假设,故用could have taken 表示本来能够坐……”,而实际上没有坐。BD项都是叙述现在或将来的情况; must have taken 用来对已发生的情况进行推测,不指与事实相反的情况。

【题目】 Most Americans would have a difficult time telling you, specifically, what are the values which Americans live by. They have never given the matter any thought.

Over the years I have introduced thousands of international visitors to life in the United States. This has caused me to try to look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitors. I am confident that the values listed in this booklet describe most ( but not all) Americans, and that understanding these values can help you, the international visitor, understand Americans.

It is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in Americans, they will then be able to understand 95% of American actions-actions which might otherwise appear "strange", "confusing", or "unbelievable" when evaluated from the perspective of the foreigner's own society and its values.

The different behaviors of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs, assumptions and values of that particular group. When you encounter ( meet) an action, or hear a statement in the United States which surprises you, try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this booklet.

【1】An ordinary American can't tell you his/her value system because _____.
