In particular, Chinese frequently compliment (称赞) foreign friends on their language skills, knowledge of Chinese culture, professional
41、accomplishments, and personal health. Curiously, however, Chinese are as loath to accept a compliment as they are eager to give one. As many of my Chinese friends have explained, this is a sign of the Chinese virtue of modesty.I have noticed a difference, though, in the degree to which modesty is em
42、phasized in the United States and China. In the US, we tend to place more emphasis on “seeking the truth from fact”, thus, Americans tend to accept a compliment with gratitude.Chinese, on the other hand, tend to reject the compliment, even when they know they deserve the credit or recognition which
43、has been awarded them. I can imagine a Chinese basketball fan meeting Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls. He might say, “Mr. Jordan, I am so happy to meet you. I just want to tell you, you are the best basketball player in the world; youre the greatest!” to which Jordan would probably respond, “Tha
44、nk you very much. I really appreciate it! I just to try to do my best every time I step on the court.” If an American met Deng Yaping, Chinas premier pingpong player, he might say much the same thing: “Ms. Deng, youre the best!” but as a Chinese, Deng would probably say, “No, I really dont play all
45、that well. Youre too much kind.”Plainly, Americans and Chinese have different ways of responding to praise. Ironically, many Americans might consider Ms. Dengs response the less modest, because it is less truthfuland therefore less sincere. Americans generally place sincerity above manners; genuine
46、gratitude for the praise serves as a substitute for protestations of modesty. After all, in the words of one of my closest Chinese friends, modesty taken to the extreme is pride.12. What does the underlined word “loath” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Polite.B. Uncertain.C. Curious.D. Unwilling.13. Why d
47、oes the author mention Michael Jordan and Deng Yaping?A. To note they do as much as they can each time they play against others.B. To remind readers they are the best players in basketball and table tennis.C. To explain they deserve the credit or recognition for their great contributions.D. To show
48、they as Chinese and Americans are different in accepting praise.14. Why do Americans consider Ms. Dengs response the less modest?A. They think sincerity matters the most.B. They think her reply is against the fact.C. They think she is too modest to believe.D. They think manners is more important.15.
49、 In what column can you find this passage in a newspaper?A. Education.B. Sports.C. Culture.D. People.【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了中国人同美国人对待赞扬的不同回应。【12题详解】词句猜测题。通过文章第一段中“In particular, Chinese frequently compliment (称赞) foreign friends on their language skills, knowledge of Chinese
50、culture, professional accomplishments, and personal health.”(特别是,中国人经常称赞外国朋友的语言能力、中国文化知识、专业成就和个人健康状况)和“As many of my Chinese friends have explained, this is a sign of the Chinese virtue of modesty.”(正如我的许多中国朋友所解释的那样,这是中国人谦虚美德的标志)再根据划线句中的“Curiously, however”(然而,奇怪的是)可知,中国人不愿接受赞美,正如他们渴望给予赞美一样,所以划线词的意思
51、是“不愿意”。故选D。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“I have noticed a difference, though, in the degree to which modesty is emphasized in the United States and China. In the US, we tend to place more emphasis on “seeking the truth from fact”, thus, Americans tend to accept a compliment with gratitude.”(不过,我注意到美国和中国对谦虚的强调程
52、度有所不同。在美国,我们更倾向于“实事求是”,因此,美国人倾向于以感激的态度接受赞美。)和第三段中“Chinese, on the other hand, tend to reject the compliment, even when they know they deserve the credit or recognition which has been awarded them.”(另一方面,中国人则倾向于拒绝称赞,即使他们知道自己理应得到授予他们的荣誉或认可。)由此可知,在第三段中作者提到迈克尔乔丹和邓亚萍以显示他们作为中国人和美国人在接受赞扬方面的不同。故选D。【14题详解】细节
53、理解题。根据第四段中“Ironically, many Americans might consider Ms. Dengs response the less modest, because it is less truthfuland therefore less sincere. Americans generally place sincerity above manners; genuine gratitude for the praise serves as a substitute for protestations of modesty.”(具有讽刺意味的是,许多美国人可能认为
54、邓女士的回答不那么谦虚,因为它不那么真实因此也不那么真诚。美国人通常把真诚置于礼貌之上;对表扬的真诚感激代替了谦虚的声明。)由此可知,美国人认为邓女士的回答不那么谦虚,是因为他们认为真诚最重要。故选A。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Plainly, Americans and Chinese have different ways of responding to praise.”(很明显,美国人和中国人对赞美有不同的回应方式。)和“Americans generally place sincerity above manners; genuine gratitude for th
55、e praise serves as a substitute for protestations of modesty. After all, in the words of one of my closest Chinese friends, modesty taken to the extreme is pride.”(美国人通常把真诚置于礼貌之上;对表扬的真诚感激代替了谦虚的声明。毕竟,用我一个最亲密的中国朋友的话来说,谦虚到极致就是骄傲。)由此可知,本文介绍一种文化差异,所以这篇文章应该在报纸的“Culture”栏目中找到。故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分
