二、阅读单选
A
I have a rule for travel-never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction.
Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office ” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it ” They don’t know.
People in Mexico never answer “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!
16．What do you think the word “landmarks” means It means ________.
A．street names B．building names
C．hotels, markets and bus stops D．buildings or places which are easily seen

B．People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by telling time.
C．A person’s body language can help you understand directions.
D．People in different places always give directions in the same way-they use street names.
【答案】16．D 17．C 18．D
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在不同国家问路会碰见的不同情形。
16．词义猜测题。根据文章内对landmark的举例阐述“Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market”，可知这是在描述一些显眼的建筑物作为地标，故推测该词是指“显眼的建筑”，故选D。
17．细节理解题。根据“People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time”，可知是洛杉矶的人用时间衡量距离，故选C。
18．判断正误题。通读全文，可知文章主要介绍了在不同国家问路会碰见的不同情形，人们会用不同的方式来回答问路，D选项表述错误，故选D。

【答案】My favourite festival—Spring Festival
There are a lot of holidays for Chinese people, such as National day, May Day, etc. However, Chinese people look on Spring Festival as their most important one of all. And it’s also my favorite festival, which means a gather-together for me.
Spring Festival usually falls in January or February. It’s a time for people who are busy for a whole year to go home. People often celebrate Spring Festival by having a big dinner, visiting relatives and friends, getting some red packets and letting off fireworks. However, in order to protect the environment, letting off firecrackers is forbidden now. When I was a child, I was so eager to the coming of Spring Festival, for I could let off firecrackers with many friends. We shouted and felt excited by hearing the burst of firecrackers. It’s a moment of happiness and bless.
It seems that Spring Festival is not so lively as before, but it’s still an important event for Chinese around the world. It stands for the union and new beginning as well.

A
I have a rule for travel-never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction.
Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office ” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it ” They don’t know.
People in Mexico never answer “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!
16．What do you think the word “landmarks” means It means ________.
A．street names B．building names
C．hotels, markets and bus stops D．buildings or places which are easily seen
17．In which place do people tell distance by telling time
A．Japan. B．The American Midwest.
C．Los Angeles, California. D．Mexico.
18．Which of the following is wrong
A．Travelers can learn about people’s customs (习俗) by asking questions about directions.
B．People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by telling time.
C．A person’s body language can help you understand directions.
D．People in different places always give directions in the same way-they use street names.
