15.The British are often considered to be polite but this can be very (61)confusing (confuse) for non-native speakers.They always think the British say (62)what they mean.In fact,we often say the opposite!Here's an example that will (63)hopefully(hope) explain what I mean."You should come around for tea!"a British woman said.
Is this a genuine invitation (64)or is the person just being polite?This phrase is one of those that we say but often don't really mean,so when no (65)further (far) details are given,you can probably assume it is made in (66)the name of politeness!But how does this compare to another country?
This summer,while (67)working (work) in Australia,I was invited by one of my roommates to join her family for a meal out.Although (68)touched (touch) by the invitation,I immediately assumed that she was just being polite so I told her that I didn't want to disturb.She replied with,"If I hadn't wanted you to come,I wouldn't (69)have invited (invite) you in the first place!"
This made me realize that politeness is culturally (70)defined (define).In England,we often think it's polite to offer or suggest something even if we don't actually want to do it,but in other cultures people are more direct.
分析 本文讲述了在不同的文化背景之下人际交往方面的不同.
在英国如果别人说"有时间来我家喝茶",那么,如果没有更进一步的邀请,那我们知道这只是一句客气话.但在澳大利亚,人们就直接的多,如果他们邀请你去吃饭,那么就是邀请,不只是客气客气.
解答 61.confusing.考查 派生词.修饰主语this,做表语用confusing,表示"令人困惑的".
62.what.考查宾语从句.做宾语从句they mean的宾语,表示"…的事",用what.
63.hopefully.考查副词的用法.修饰动词 explain 用副词hopefully.
64.or.考查连词.is the person just being polite?表示"这个人只是客气一下",和上句是选择关系,所以用or连接.
65.further.考查比较级.根据上句可知在没有更详细的语句,无法知道对方的意思,所以用比较级further修饰details.
66.the.考查冠词.固定短语in the name of politeness 表示"以礼貌的名义".
67.working.考查非谓语动词.做时间状语,和主语I之间是主动关系,用现在分词working.
68.touched.考查非谓语动词.做让步状语,和主语I之间是被动关系,用过在分词touched.
69.have invited.考查虚拟语气.根据从句If I hadn't wanted you to come可知这是一个虚拟语气句子,表示和过去的事实相反,所以主句的谓语动词用wouldn't have invited.
70.defined.考查被动语态.做谓语,和主语politeness 是被动关系,所以谓语动词用is defined.
点评 考查语法填空.
if条件句的虚拟语气
1.虚拟现在时表示与现在事实相反的假设,其if 从句的谓语形式用动词的过去式(be 一般用were),主句用would/should/could/might+动词原形.例如:
If places were alike,there would be little need for geographers.如果各个地方都一样,就不需要地理学家了.
2.虚拟过去时是表示与过去事实相反的假设,if 从句的谓语形式用过去完成时即had+过去分词,主句用would/should/could/might+have+过去分词.例如:
If he had known your address yesterday,he would have telephoned you.如果他昨天知道你的地址,他就给你打电话了.
3.虚拟将来时是表示对将来实现的可能性很小的或不确定的假设.If从句的谓语形式用一般过去式或用were to/should+动词原形,主句用would/should/could/might+动词原形.例如:
If he were to leave today,he would get there by Friday如果他今天就要离开,他会在星期五到达.
