假设你是李华。你的外国笔友Jane打算于七月来中国,特来信了解中国人的社交习俗。请你用英语回一封信,从以下几个方面作具体介绍。
(2009·四川) 1. 见面时的问候方式;
2. 对赞美的回答方式; 3. 接收礼物时的回应方式;4. 餐宴礼节。 注意:1. 词数100左右。 2. 可根据内容要点适当增加细节,使行文连贯。 范文背诵 Dear Jane,
Glad to hear from you and you’re welcome to China in July. The following are some Chinese customs.
Firstly, we greet each other by saying “Hello” or asking such questions as “Where are you going?” or “Are you busy?” to express our care. Secondly, when praised, we reply with “Oh, no!” or “I’m over-praised” to show good manners. Next, when receiving a gift, we usually say “It’s unnecessary” besides “Thanks” to show politeness and then put it away. Finally, at dinner parties, we talk loudly and touch glasses when drinking to someone’s health or success to show that we’re warm.
Anyhow, different cultures, different customs. If you “Do as the Romans do when in Rome”, you’ll enjoy more of your stay here.
I hope what’s mentioned above might be helpful and wish you a good journey.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua 句型背诵

D.
maybe 解析:选C。maybe 是副词,故可以排除。句子的主语是Tom,故只能选likely。 8. Not all cultures greet each other the same way, nor are they comfortable in the same way with touching or distance between people. (P26) 各种文化背景下人们互致问候的方式不尽相同,身体接触和相互间距离的程度也并不一样。 这个句子是由一个中心词组not...nor...连接起来的,意为“既不……又不……”。not all...表示部分否定。部分否定通常由not+all/both/each/everybody/everything等来表达。 Not every Welshman speaks Welsh. 并不是每个威尔士人都说威尔士语。 All is not gold that glisters.发光的并不都是金子。 【联想拓展】 若要表示全部否定,则应用相应的表示全部否定的否定词。 all→none (一个人也没有、没有任何东西);
both→neither (两个都不),every→no(没有,不是);
everyone→no one(没有人), everything→nothing(什么也没有)等。 I like neither of the books.这两本书我都不喜欢。
温馨提示:部分否定并不总是用这种方式表达,有时也以一般否定句的形式出现,即把否定主语的not与谓语动词放在一起。 【即学即练】 单项填空 —I think the whole class is going on a field trip next Friday. —I’m not sure._____has paid the transportation fee.
A. Not everyoneB. No one C. None of themD. Neither of us 解析:选A。B项与C项为全部否定,意思一样,都表示“没有一个人”,故排除;D项意为“两者都不”,不符合语境;A项表示部分否定,意为“不是所有人”,符合上下文语境,故选A。
