题目内容

【题目】Younger people might like snow and cold, but for________, such weather is very tough; snow can turn into ice, _______is easy to slip on.

A. people my age; where B. my age people; where

C. people my age; which D. my age people; which

【答案】C

【解析】

试题分析：考查非限制性定语从句。先分析这句话的句子成分，这是由分号连接的两个句子。分号前面说的是people，那but后面句子的主语是肯定是people， people my age相当于people of my age， my age用在这里修饰people，作后置定语，表示我这个年纪的人。再看分号后面的那个句子，在第二个空的前面有个很明显的逗号，这是非限制性定语从句的标志。 _______is easy to slip on.这个从句缺少主语，所以要选which,而where只能做状语。句意：年轻人很喜欢雪和寒冷的天气，但是对于我这年纪的人来说，这样的天气很难受；因为雪会变成很容易让人摔倒的冰。故选C。

【题目】

The Post Office in Britain is famous for getting letters and parcels to places to which they should be sent. The problem is that we the public have to observe the rules. For example, we must put a stamp on a letter. If we don’t, the receiver will have to pay double. We often see the sign ALL LETTERS MUST BE CORRECTLY ADDRESSED. These days, this means having to use postcodes. If you didn’t use a postcode, it’s no good complaining that your letter should have arrived sooner. Parcels are a problem because they must be correctly packaged. If Aunt Sophie is going to send you a jar of your favorite jam, she will have to wrap it up well. The most important thing we have to do is to address our letters and parcels legibly(易读) and correctly. This means clear handwriting and correct spelling. What we should do and what we actually do are often miles apart. Recently, the Post Office had to deliver a letter which showed a name followed by the word Arijaba. What is this, do you think? Arabic? Hiodustani(兴都斯坦语)? Wrong both times! Say it out loud and you’ll see it’s just plain English. HARWICH HARBOUR！

【1】In England _______ if you forget to put on a stamp.

A. nobody can receive your letter

B. you will have to give some money as a punishment

A. your letter couldn’t arrive soon

B. your letter would be surely lost

Third-Culture Kids

Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a totally different country? If so, then you are a third-culture kid!

The term “third-culture kid”(or TCK) was coined in the 1960s by Dr. Ruth. She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living in India. Caught between two cultures, they form their very own. 【1】 About 90 percent of them have a university degree, while 40 percent pursue a post graduate or doctor degree. They usually benefit from their intercultural experience, which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals.

【2】 In fact many hardships may arise from this phenomenon. A third-culture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected. Instead, they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures. Max, for example, experienced this fundamental feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a third-culture kid. 【3】 While this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world, it can be difficult for a third-culture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships.

For a third-culture kid, it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their “home” country. After living in Australia and South Korea for many years. Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager. But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born. 【4】 She did not share the same values as her friends’ even years after going back home.

While a third-culture kid must let go of their identity as foreigner when he/she returns, the home country can prove to be more foreign than anything he/she came across before. The peer group they face does not match the idealized image children have of “home”. 【5】

As a part of the growing “culture”, TCKs may find it a great challenge for them to feel at home in many places.

A．Yet being a third-culture kid is not always easy.

B．In general, they often reach excellent academic results.

C．This often makes it hard for them to form their own identity.

D．However, their parents can help them see the opportunities of a mobile lifestyle.

E．Their experience abroad helps them to gain a better understanding of cultural differences.

F．Unlike other teens of her age, she didn’t know anything about current TV shows or fashion trends.

G．Additionally, making new friends and saying goodbye to old ones will at some point become routine for a third-culture kid.

【题目】Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures .The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today ,however ,perform quite a different role .Unlike most art museums ,the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public .These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.

People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something ,while the second tells you the success of a sale.

One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits .Unlike the average art museum visitors ,design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled .This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do ,and how design has improved the quality of our lives .Art museum exhibits ,on the other hand ,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something between their understanding.

In recent years ,several new design museums have opened their door ,Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas .London’s Design Museum ,for example ,shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins .The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums ,and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.

【1】Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they.

A．show more technologically advanced products

B．help increase the sales of products

C．show why the products have sold well

D．attract more people than store windows do

【2】The author believes that most design museum visitors .

A．do not admire mass-produced products

B．are puzzled with technological exhibits

C．dislike exhibits in art museums

D．know the exhibits very well

【3】The choices open to design museums .

A．are not as strict as those to art museums

B．are not aimed to interest the public

C．may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors

D．often contain precious exhibits
