66、子这一事情。6.C推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话I think its a wonderful tradition.可知,作者认为丹麦人吃面包配咸红鱼是一个很好的传统,由此可知,作者接受这种吃法。A项“冷淡的,漠不关心的”;B项“批判性的”;C项“可理解的”;D项“怀疑的”。故选C。7.B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的They think its a delicacy, and its connected with their certain culture. 可知,丹麦人认为这是一种美味佳肴, 这和他们的特定的文化有关。正如中国人喜欢嗑瓜子和春节有关。由此可知,作者想在这篇文章中表达的观点是,

79、ctures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, or angry.分析这是一个主从复合句。其中介词短语in the recognition of facial expressions作differences的后置定语;by recording.为介词短语作方式状语,其中while they observed pictures of.or angry是时间状语从句,while引导的从句中的they指的就是13 Western people and
80、 13 Eastern people。句意研究人员通过记录13个西方人和13个东方人在观察富于表情的面部照片并把它们分为快乐、悲伤、惊讶、恐惧、厌恶或愤怒这几类时的面部活动,来研究在面部表情识别方面的文化差异。第二节语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了离家去国外冒险的益处:可以交新朋友;学习新的语言;享受及学习制作美味的食物。16.G本文讲述了去国外冒险的益处,设空处承上启下,故G项“离开祖国去国外进行新的冒险有什么好处?”符合语境。故选G。17.F根据该段的标题New friends及设空处下文Theyll also be able to give you a new perspective
81、 on life as they share their view of the worldwhich is likely to be very different from your own!可知,这里讲述的是交新朋友的益处,F项“这些新朋友会向你展示你在你的新家里可以做的最有趣的事情。”也说明了交新朋友的益处,符合语境,故选F。18.A设空处是段落标题。根据下文You may learn a language in the classroom environment and learn it well,but nothing compares with fully burying your
82、self into a foreign language,participating in real-life conversations and picking up authentic slang and sayings from the locals.可知,你可以在课堂环境中学习一门语言,并学好它,但没有什么可以与置身于说外语的环境中,参与现实生活中的对话、从当地人那里学到真正的俚语和格言相比。因此推断此处说的是在国外可以让你身临其境地学习一门新语言,A项“掌握一门新语言的机会。”符合语境。故选A。19.E分析上文内容可知,此处应是说在国外学习语言的另外一种好处,E项“你也充分体验到与语
