Mitsuaki recently arrived in the United States to enter university.He wants to do well in his studies anD.1 to the new culture.But Mitsuaki has a 2.It’s not his roommates.It’s not his school fees.It’s not even his English ability.It is that he doesn’t have a 3.And in America, that really makes him a foreigner.Mitsuaki has already discovered a basic fact of American culture:4 is a way of life.

It’s 5 there’s no public transportation in AmericA#Many cities have taxis, buses and subways to help people get 6 work.Some large universities even have buses to take students to classes across the 7.But most people find it much more 8 to drive, 9 they do have to deal with traffiC#Nowadays busy families often have more than one vehicle.Many people 10 their car as a status symbol.But no matter what their social status are, people without wheels feel 11

When Mitsuaki first arrived, he was amazed at how young many American drivers 12 were.Young people in America often get their driver’s license around age 16 by 13 a written test and a driving test.14, before they can get their license, they have to take a driver education 15, which gives students hands-on practice with driving.It also helps to reduce the high 16 of insurance.For teenagers, being able to drive-and in some cases, having their own car-is a big 17.It gives them a sense of power and freedom.It’s 18 to find an American teenager without one.

Driving to Americans is 19 flying to birds.It’s almost part of their nature.For many Americans, being 20 the wheel is like their natural home.

试题答案

答案:1.D;2.B;3.D;4.D;5.B;6.A;7.C;8.C;9.B;10.B;11.A;12.C;13.C;14.C;15.B;16.A;17.D;18.B;19.B;20.C;

解析:

(1)

adjust to”适应”与后文a new culture对应。stick to”坚持”,look forward to“盼望”,reply to“回答”都不合适。

(2)

从下列例子推理,应该是”问题”。到异国经常碰到的问题。

(3)

文章第二段作了说明。

(4)

与上一空一致。

(5)

从上下文来看,这里应该理解为”不是因为”。

(6)

get to and from work 意思是”上下班”。

(7)

across the campus意思是”在校园范围内”,与上文呼应。

(8)

句意是”自己开车更方便”。

(9)

根据上下文逻辑关系,这里应该用”even though(即使)”引导状语从句,表示”即使他们必须对付拥挤的交通”。

(10)

view sth as意思是”把……看作”符合情景。

(11)

此题采用排除法。feel接形容词或过去分词作表语。过去分词应该源于及物动词(词组),这样排除B。而put away意思是”搁在一边”,give away是”赠送”的意思。所以,只能选择tied down,意思是”感到束手束脚”。

(12)

分析句子结构,感叹句主语是many American drivers,不能再用they 作主语 。句意是”那儿许多美国司机是多么年轻!”

(13)

与下文test呼应。而take或attend只表示”参加”,没有表示结果。

(14)

in many cases意思是”在许多情况下”。上下文没有因果关系,不能用as a result。而as it were意思是”似乎是”,in a word表示”简言之”都不合适。

(15)

take a course是”学一门课程”。而take a lecture只表示”听一次讲座”。Take a driver education practice搭配不当。

(16)

insurance cost”保险费用”。

(17)

呼应上下文。it is a big deal意思是”是一桩大事”。这里与business”生意,事务”无关。

(18)

根据上下文可知,”美国人没有车是很少见的”。这里不能用special, 因为其意思是”特别的,特意的”。

(19)

难句。指示代词what表示”……的结构”。句意是”开车对于美国人来说就像鸟要飞一样”。

(20)

固定搭配。Behind the wheel意思是”开车”。
