We do have fish and chips, and we have other dishes like roast dinner and shepherd’s pie. But how muc h do we actually eat them?Fish and chips, is made up of battered (绞碎的) fish and chips, which is often accompanied by a thick paste (酱). The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat, say, on a weekly bas is. It’s also not usually something that we would cook at home. The British people associate this dish with the seaside and it’s something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there, bought from a takeaway fish and chip shop.Another favourite British dish is roast dinner. This is made up of roast meat, usually chicken or beef, accompanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce called gravy (肉汁). It is usually eaten on a Sunday, perhaps for a special family dinner. It can either be cooked at home or eaten in a traditional pub. We also eat a more elaborate version of this for our Christmas dinner.Although we do have our traditional dishes, our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries. You can find a wide range of international foods in the supermarket or varieties of different restaurants on our high streets. A famous saying among British people is that our national dish is now chicken tikka masala, a dish which is heavily influenced by Indian cuisine.Don’t expect to be served a traditional dish if you ever get invited for dinner at a British family’s home!24. What do you know about fish and chips?A. It is a home cooking for the British people.B. It is a seaside dish eaten on a day trip there.C. It is a Sunday dish for a family dinner.D. It is an international food from India.25. What is special about roast dinner?A. It is only served for Christmas dinner.B. It is the top choice for a family dinner.C. It is the most popular with foreigners.D. It comes from a foreign cuisine.26. Which of the following might be an international food?A. Fish and chips.B. Roast dinner.C. Shepherd’s pie.D. Chicken tikka masala.27. What is the purpose of the text?A. To explore some British national dishes.B. To make an advertisement for British Dishes.C. To introduce the British table manners.D. To tell about British Eating Habits.CTraveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different ways of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’t have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.”You don’t understand completely,“Yes, but how many miles away is it, please?”To this question you won’t get an answer, because most probably they don’t know it themselves. People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.”Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What hap pens in the situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People there believe that “I don’t” is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost ve ry easily in Yucatan! However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It’s body language!28.Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?A. “The post office is at Street amira.”B. “Turn right at the hospital and go past a school.”C. “The post office is about five minutes from here.”D. “Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.”29.Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles?A. They prefer to lead you the way.B. They prefer to use body language.C. They often have no idea of distance measured by miles.D. They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance.30.How do Greeks give directions?A. Using street names.B. Using landmarks.C. Leading people the way.D. Giving people a wrong direction.31. According to the last paragraph, we can learn that_____________________.A. people in Yucatan always give wrong directionsB. people in Mexico know streets’ name wellC. body language makes you get lost in YucatanD. people in Mexico prefer to use body languageDIn ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics(策略).One tactic involves where to display the goods. Foe example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品)later in their trip. In department stores, shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics(化妆品) section:while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decision in the first few second upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.32. Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A. To save customers times.B. To show they are high quality foods.C. To help sell junk food.D. To sell them at discount prices.33. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?A. Opening the store early in the morning.B. Displaying British wines next to French ones.C. Inviting customers to play music.D. Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.34. What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?A. The house structure is a key factor customers consider.B. The more costly the house is, the better it sells.C. An ocean view is much to the customers’ taste.D. A good first impression increases sales.35. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.B. To introduces how businesses have grown from the past.C. To report researches on customer behavior.D. To show dishonest business practices.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
