B

In the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts（主人）and the worst guests in the world. They’re not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western host sometimes look rude（粗鲁的）in the eyes of Chinese guests.

In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.

My wife’s mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask. “Is it OK if I smoke?” But, don’t be surprised if they say “No, you can’t smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.

Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese,   so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don’t be too surprised if they don’t bring you a gift.

In China, you probably won’t need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.

51．Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ________ in the world

A．best B．worst C．most natural D．most different

52．When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ________.

A．buys some fruit B．feels like a god

C．wants some gifts D．takes a cup of tea

53．If the writer’s guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?

A．It’s OK if you smoke here. B．Let’s smoke together.

C．Sorry, you can’t smoke here. D．Smoking is a bad habit.

54．What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?

A．think back to B．get used to C．look forward to D．keep close to

55．What is the main idea of this passage?

A．Foreigners should learn from Chinese.

B．Hosts must do things in the guests’ way.

C．Western hosts are always nice to guests.

D．People should understand cultural differences.

So, if you invite international guests to your house, don’t be too surprised if they don’t bring you a gift.”可知，在我们国家，送礼物给主人并不总是必要的。所以，如果你邀请国际客人到你家做客，如果他们没有给你带礼物，不要太惊讶。因此表示一些西方人可能不会很快就适应中国人的做客习惯，adapt  to在此处指的是“习惯”，与“get used to”同义。故选B。

55．

主旨大意题。根据“...They’re not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries...”可知，在中国，客人与主人的关系与一些西方国家不同。因此本文主要介绍了人们应该了解文化差异。故选D。

本段对话是Jean被邀请去李红家吃晚餐，但是她不是很了解，所以向Bert寻求帮助。

56．

57．

61．     relaxed     about

【解析】

【详解】

根据汉英对照以及空格前的be可知，be relaxed about表示 “对……放松”，形容词短语。故填relaxed；about。

62．     shake     hands

【解析】

【详解】

shake hands“握手”，come up to do sth“过来做某事”，所以to后使用动词原形。故填shake；hands。

63．     got##was     mad

【解析】

【详解】

短语get/be mad表示生气；根据上文After she heard the news可知，这里用一般过去时态，主语是单数。be用was，get的过去式是got。根据汉语提示，故填got/was     mad。

64．     are      supposed     to

【解析】

【详解】

短语be supposed   to do sth.表示应该做某事；主语是we，这里be动词用are。根据汉语提示，故填are    supposed       to。

65．     gradually     getting     getting

【解析】

【详解】

短语be used to doing sth.表示喜欢做某事；gradually副词，逐渐，放在be动词之后，实意动词之前；短语get up表示起床；这里用动名词。根据句意，故填gradually getting；getting 。

66．One possible version:

Dear Dale,

I’m very happy to know you are coming to China for the summer vacation. Now let me tell you something about China. First, there are many kinds of delicious food and famous places in China. When you come, you’d better taste Chinese food. You should take a camera with you and take photos of the famous places. Then, Chinese people are friendly. When they meet, they usually shake hands. So you can shake hands when you meet Chinese people. Next, we speak Chinese in China. So if you can’t understand what we say, you can ask the guides for help. Finally, it is very convenient to travel in China. The traffic is always there waiting for you. But if you want to take a train or a plane, you’d better order a ticket first. I hope you will have a good time in China.

Yours,

Lily
