.阅读理解
A
Americans are famous for being friendly to people. Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures. It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime, and consider other “friends” to be just social acquaintances (泛泛之交). This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans dislike to be dependent on other people. They tend to “compartmentalize” (划分)
friendships, having “friends at work” “friends on the softball team”“family friends” and so forth.
Because the United States is a highly active society, full of movement and change, people always seem to be on the go. In this highly_charged atmosphere, Americans sometimes seem abrupt (无礼的) or impatient. They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to something else. Sometimes, they ask you questions that you may feel very personal. No insult is intended; the questions usually grow out of their true interest or curiosity, and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter. And the same goes for you. If you don’t understand certain American behavior or you want to know more about them, do not hesitate to ask them questions about themselves. Americans are usually eager to explain all about their country or anything “American” in which you may be interested. They explain so much in fact that you may become tired of listening. It doesn’t matter because Americans tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation. They would rather talk about the weather or the latest sports scores, for instance, than deal with silence.
On the other hand, don’t expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs, unless those subjects directly involve the United States. Because the United States is geographically distant from many other nations, some Americans tend not to be aware of what goes on in other parts of the world.
1．According to the passage, Americans’ attitude towards friendship is________.
A．it is unusual to have only one close friend
B．more informal than that in other countries
C．to regard all friends as only social acquaintances
D．to divide friends into several grades
答案 B [推理判断题。由文章第一段中的“Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures.”可以推知美国人对待友谊较为随意，不太正式。]
2．The words “highly charged” (Paragraph 2) most probably mean________.
A．extremely expensive
B．much cheerful
C．highly responsible
D．full of mobility and change
答案 D [词义猜测题。认真阅读并分析其所在句及前一句可知，是对前面一句话内容的概括，由此可见应表示“充满流动性和变化的”。]
3．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Americans know a lot about international affairs.
B．Friendships among Americans tend to be more formal.
C．Americans always seem to be on the move.
D．Americans like to cooperate with other people.
答案 C [推理判断题。由文章第二段首句中的“...people always seem to be on the go”可知答案。]
4．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A．Americans want to take part in all kinds of activities
B．curiosity is the major characteristic of Americans
C．Americans do not know how to deal with silence
D．Americans’ characters are influenced by their social and geographical environments
答案 D [推理判断题。由文章第一段第四句“This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans dislike to be dependent on other people”可知，美国人对待友谊的态度可能与美国人的流动性以及他们不喜欢依赖别人有关。由第二段首句可知，美国是一个充满活力、充满流动性和变化的社会。这一切都表明美国人的性格受社会影响。文章最后一句表明美国人的性格也受其地理位置的影响。故D项正确。]
B
After graduation I returned home to my small town in Indiana. I didn’t have a job yet. Mr. Hobbs，a friend of my father’s，owned a small shirt factory in town. Within the past five years it had grown from twenty to eighty workers. Hobbs was worried that his plant was getting too big and inefficient，so he asked me to come in on a shortterm basis as a consultant.
I went to the plant and spent about a week looking around and making notes. I was really amazed at what I saw.
Most curious of all，there was no quality control at all. No one inspected the final product of the factory. As a result some of the shirts that were put in boxes for shipment were missing one or two buttons，the collar，and even a sleeve sometimes!
The working conditions were poor. The tables where the workers sat were very high and uncomfortable. Except for a half hour at lunchtime，there were no breaks in the day to relieve the boring work. There was no music. The walls of the workrooms were a dull gray color. I was amazed that the workers hadn’t gone on strike.
Furthermore，the work flow was irregular. There was one especially absentminded young man in the assembly (组装) line who sewed on buttons. After a while I recognized him as “Big Jim”，who used to sit behind me in math class in high school. He was very slow and all the shifts were held up at his position. Workers beyond him in line on his shift had to wait with nothing to do；therefore，a great deal of time and efficiency were lost as Big Jim daydreamed while he worked. All week I wondered why he wasn’t fired.
After I made observations for a week，Mr. Hobbs asked me for an oral report of my findings.
5．The shirts from Mr. Hobbs’ factory can be described as________.
A．of low quality
B．of high quality
C．fashionable
D．unfashionable
答案 A [细节理解题。第三段说由于最后的产品无人检查，结果使有些装在箱子里要运送的衬衫缺纽扣、领子、甚至缺袖子，由此可知，Mr. Hobbs的工厂生产的衬衫质量很差。]
6．Why did Mr. Hobbs ask the writer to the factory?
A．The factory was too big.
B．The factory was not producing fast enough.
C．The factory was not big enough.
D．The writer was a college graduate.
答案 B [细节理解题。由第一段的最后一句可知，作者被请到工厂去的原因是工厂的效率很低，也就是生产不够快。]
7．Which is NOT likely to happen in the factory?
A．The workers will have more rest in the day.
B．Someone will examine the final product.
C．New machines will be bought.
D．The factory will be repainted.
答案 C [推理判断题。缺乏机器的事文中没有提到，所以买机器的事不可能发生。根据第四段的信息“除了半小时的午休时间，白天再没有放松的时间”可知A项的事情可能会发生；根据第三段的第二句“无人检查最后的产品”可知B项的事情可能会发生；根据第四段的倒数第二句可知D项的事情可能会发生。]
8．Big Jim may get fired mainly because________.
A．he was slow
B．he wasted much time
C．he was absentminded
D．the work flow was irregular
答案 C [推理判断题。虽然四个选项在第五段都被提到过，但A、B、D都是因为C引起的，所以C项是Big Jim可能会被解雇的主要原因。]
