题目内容
15.In Colombia,there are some unwritten rules that people are used to.These rules are not officially established,but people do respect them.For example,on a bus,a person keeps a distance from another person,and people don't like to touch each other.Many people come to work late because they prefer to wait for another bus if the first one is too crowded.They don't want to have to stand too close to another person,or maybe they are afraid of starting a conversation.A friend of mine in Colombia once said his mom got angry because he came home late,so he asked her,"Mom,what do you think of most people arriving at their jobs so late?"That gave her the answer to her question since everyone knows no one wants to get on a bus that is too crowded.His mother realized at that moment that customs have a big influence on a person's life.
Sometimes,people don't like to make any kind of conversation or make eye contact(接触) with others.For example,when they are in line at a bank,they prefer to look up or down rather than look at other people.
Moreover,people usually look down when they are in an elevator.Not only on a bus,in line at a bank,and in an elevator do people usually avoid talking to other people,but also in the streets when they are walking,they prefer to look down and to avoid contact with others.

分析 本文主要讲了哥伦比亚的各种风俗习惯,例如公交车上不愿意互相接触,不愿意眼神接触等.
解答 57:B细节题.由第一段第四句"Many people come to work late because they prefer to wait for another bus if the first one is too crowded."当当前的公交车太挤时,许多人会选择等待下一趟,因此他们上班迟到了.可知正确答案为B.
58:A细节题.由第一段第二句"These rules are not officially established,but people do respect them."和第二段最后一句"His mother realized at that moment that customs have a big influence on a person's life."可知许多不成文的风俗习惯在影响着人们生活,所以A项正确.而B、C、D项在文中没有相关内容,所以B、C、D项错误.故正确答案为A.
59:D细节题.由第三段第二句"For example,when they are in line at a bank,they prefer to look up or down rather than look at other people."可知正确答案为D.
60:C主旨题.文章主要讲了哥伦比亚的各种风俗习惯,例如公交车上不愿意互相接触,不愿意眼神接触等,所以C项正确.而人们在不同阶段做什么事、避免登上拥挤的公交或者遵守不成文规定都不是文章主要内容,所以A、B、D项错误.故正确答案为C.
