D.25 December答案：B解析：考查美国文化。万圣节是诸圣节(All Saints’ Day )的俗称，本是天主教等基督宗教的宗教节日，时间为11月1日。天主教把诸圣节定为弥撒日，每到这一天，除非有不可抗拒的理由，否则所有信徒都要到教堂参加弥撒，缅怀已逝并升人天国的所有圣人，特别是那些天主教历史上的著名圣人。在中文里，常常把万圣节前夜(Hlloween )讹译为万圣节(All Saints’ Day)。为庆祝万圣节的来临，小孩会装扮成各种可爱的鬼怪逐家逐户地敲门，要求获得糖果，否则就会捣蛋。而同时传说这一晚，各种鬼怪也会装扮成小孩混人群众之中一起庆祝万圣节的来临，而人类为了让鬼怪更融洽才装扮成各种鬼怪。 -

第10题：
问答题Practice 1 Since the earliest times in England，the traveler’s inn has always been a warm and hospitable place, a gathering place for voyagers to rest and recover. The tireless landlord，the local customers sharing drinks and food, the welcoming atmosphere，have all become part of the legend of the typical English country and city life. In later centuries, the English tavern took on the role of community gathering place, being the location where friendly chatter and fierce social debate mixed with business discussions, and food, wine, beer and coffee were consumed as the noise of convivial exchanges rose. In modern times, the English pub often continues to function as the communal meeting place, especially for people whose homes are too small to entertain any number of guests or friends. In many Asian countries, the local restaurant serves a similar social function. In Ireland, the pub has acted as a central attraction for poorer villagers in the rural areas, and as a literary and social focus in the cities. In keeping with the sociable nature of pub gatherings, music as well as talk has become a central part of this institution in Ireland. Now people around the world are able to experience the friendly nature of the Irish pub, which follows in the wake of its English equivalent as a welcome and growing expert. English pubs have been found in America, in parts of Europe and throughout the world where English pub is witnessing an outburst of international popularity as westerns turn away from their television and computer screens and seek to put a human face to their social contacts. They are finding it in the bars and corners of Irish pubs where Guinness stout, the Irish national drink, is available in the tall dark creamy pint glasses and Irish music is the regular fare. An international representative for the Irish manufacturers of Jameson’s whiskey, Patrick Mc-Carville, points out that while the world has been laughing at Irish jokes（a stereotype of the Irish way of life）, the Irish have been quietly carrying out an economic coup which is seen in the evidence of the explosion of Irish pubs.正确答案： 参考译文
从最古老的年代起,英国的旅客客栈就一直是温馨好客的地方,旅行者可聚集在那里休养生息。那不知疲倦的店主,前来饮酒就餐的当地人以及店中好客的气氛,都已经成了典型的英国城乡生活的一个佳话。在后来的几个世纪中,英国的客栈成了社区公众聚集的地方,在那里人们友好地闲聊,就社会问题进行激烈的争论,还有的人在谈生意,他们一边进行欢快喧闹的交流,一边吃饭,一边喝些葡萄酒、啤酒或咖啡。
在现代社会,英国酒吧继续成为公众聚集的地方,特别是有些人因家居狭窄,不便应酬宾客或朋友,便常光顾酒店。在许多亚洲国家,当地饭馆也具有同样的社会功能。
在爱尔兰,客栈在乡间是吸引贫穷人们的聚首之地,在城市,酒吧则成了文化和社会的中心,为了跟上酒吧中公众聚集的交际需求,音乐和交谈成了爱尔兰酒吧的中心内容。
现在全世界的人们都能感受到爱尔兰酒吧的友善,它们紧随英国酒吧的步伐,成了热情好客的行家里手。在美国、欧洲的一些地区,甚至是在全世界,英国酒吧迅速地受到世人的欢迎,这是由于西方人远离了电视和计算机屏幕,而去追求面对面的社交。他们在爱尔兰酒吧或是酒馆中,能喝到吉尼斯烈性黑啤酒,这种酒盛在高高的黑色的含有大量奶油的品脱杯中,是爱尔兰的国酒。人们在酒吧里也能常常享受到爱尔兰音乐。
贾米森威士忌在爱尔兰酿造厂的国际代表——帕特里克·麦卡维尔指出,当人们一直在对爱尔兰笑话放声嘲弄时(这指的是一种陈腐的爱尔兰生活方式),爱尔兰人正悄然兴起一场迅猛的经济变革,爱尔兰酒吧的骤变就是可见的证明。解析： 暂无解析 -

The Beginning of American Literature America has always been a land of beginnings.After Europeans"discovered"America in the fifteenth century,the mysterious New World became for many people a genuine hope of a new life,an escape from poverty and persecution,a chance to start again.We can say that,as a nation,America begins with that hope.When,however,does American literature begin?
American literature begins with American experiences.Long before the first colonists arrived,before Christopher Columbus,before the Northmen who"found"America about the year 1000,native Americans lived here.Each tribe's literature was tightly woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of linking with the land.Another kind of experience,one filled with fear and excitement,found its expression in the reports that Columbus and other explorers sent home in Spain, French and English.In addition,the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilder- ness tell unforgettable tales of hard and sometimes heartbreaking experiences of those early years. Experience,then, is the key to early American literature.
The New World provided a great variety of experiences,and these experiences demanded a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers.These writers included John Smith,who spent only two-and-a-half year on the American continent.
They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd,who thought of themselves as British subjects,never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own.American Indians,explorers,Puritan ministers,frontier wives,plantation owners-they are all the creators of the first American literature.When did American literature begin?
A:Before the American natives lived there.
B:When Columbus and other explorers sent reports back home.
C:When the Northmen found America in about 1000.
D:Long before the year 1000.答案：D解析：由文章第一段第二句话“… a genuine hope of a new life …”可知，that hope指的是人们对在美洲新大陆开始新生活的希望。故选B。
由文章第二段第二句可知，早在大约公元1000年北欧人发现美洲之前，美洲土著居民就居住在这里。第一句说“美国文学来源于美国人的生活经历”，由此可知，美国文学产生于公元1000年前就居住在这里的美洲土著居民的生活经历。故选D。
由文章第二段第三句话“Each tribe ' s literature was tightly woven into the fabric of dail life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of linking with the land.”可知，美洲土部落的文学是他们日常生活的真实写照。故选A。
文章最后一段的第一句话“Experience , then , is the key to early American literature."本段的主题句，说的是：美洲的生活经历是美国早期文学产生的关键因素。故选D。
由文章最后一段第四句话“They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd , wh thought of themselves as British subjects,never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own.”可知，这两位自认为是大英帝国臣民的英国作家对一场将会创造出一个拥有自己文学的美利坚合众国的革命从来没有任何怀疑。可见，一些英国作家对美国文学的将来充满信心。故选D。 -

判断题America’s call-centre business faces the problem of hiring.A对
B错
正确答案： 错解析：
录音开头指出“debt-collection industry新招收的四分之三的员工仅在三个月后就辞职了”，接着提到“America’s call-centre business…faces the same dilemma”，由此可见美国的电话客户服务中心也面临着同样的人员招聘问题。
【录音原文】
A staggering three-quarters of the debt-collection industry’s new hires quit after just three months. America’s call-centre business—another industry in which hysteria about outsourced jobs has run high—faces the same dilemma. “It’s very hard to hire in the US,” says Mr. Ginsberg. In Amherst, an Indian firm plans to do its best. -
