D．Mutualrespect.【答案】1．A2．B3．B4．A【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章作者通过一些例子讲述了文化差异。1．文章主旨题。根据第一段中的“Hehadalwaysunderstoodittomean“OK”,butinBrazil,itmeantsomethingdifferent.(他一直理解它的意思是“好”，但在巴西，它的意思有所不同)”和第三段中的“AfterIrepliedtoafriend’sWeChatmessagewithaVanGoghstickerthatIthoughtmeant“keepfighting”,anotherfriendtoldmeIuseditwrong.(我回复了一个朋友的微信，上面贴着梵高的贴纸，我认为这意味着“继续战斗”，另一个朋友告诉我我用错了)”及第五段中的“InIndia,yousigntosomeonetocomeoverwithyourpalmdown,notup.AndintheMiddleEast,youneveruseyourlefthandforanythingpublic.(在印度，你给某人签字，让他过来时手掌朝下，而不是朝上。在中东，你不在公共场合使用左手)”可知，文章主要讲述了文化差异。故选A。2．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Hehadalwaysunderstoodittomean“OK”,butinBrazil,itmeantsomethingdifferent.(他一直理解它的意思是“好”，但在巴西，它的意思有所不同)”及第二段中的“Myfather’scolleagueunderstoodthatheprobablywasn’tyetawareofthelocalmeaningofthegesture.(我父亲的同事明白，他可能还没有意识到这个手势的当地含义)”可推知，作者想通过讲述父亲的故事来表明跨文化错误是常见的。故选B。3．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“AfterIrepliedtoafriend’sWeChatmessagewithaVanGoghstickerthatIthoughtmeant“keepfighting”,anotherfriendtoldmeIuseditwrong.(我回复了一个朋友的微信，上面贴着梵高的贴纸，我认为这意味着“继续战斗”，另一个朋友告诉我我用错了)”可知，作者打算用梵高的贴纸来鼓励他的朋友。故选B。4．细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Butwhencontextisabsentorsimplydifferentlyunderstood—especiallyinthesocialmedia—perhapsitistimeweallthinktwicebeforetypingortalking,especiallywhentheconsequencescanbemoreseverethanthemisuseofaWeChatsticker.(但是，当上下文不存在或只是理解不同时——尤其是在社交媒体上——也许是我们在打字或说话之前三思的时候了，尤其是当后果可能比滥用微信贴纸更严重的时候)”可知,如果没有上下文，可能会导致文化冲突。故选A。Passage2主题语境主题群话题推荐指数人与社会文化差异文章主要讲述了不同文化对独处的不同看法。★★★Societytellsusweshouldsocialisetothefullest,andthatthosewhoaresurroundedbypeoplearethemostsuccessfulandthehappiest.Thesedays,we’realmostalwaysconnected,whetherinpersonorthroughourphonescreensandonlinesocialnetworks.Butthere’ssomethingtobesaidforsolitude(独处),“Beingalonedoesn’tnecessarilymeanbeinglonely”.Infact,spendingtimebyyourselfisanessentialelementofself-care.Aroundtheglobe,differentcultureshavewide-rangingperspectivesonwhatitmeanstospendtimealone.IfyouliveorhavespenttimeintheUnitedStates,you’reprobablyawarethatAmericanstendtorejectsolitude.Formanyyoungerpeople,weekendsarepackedwithsocialactivities,rangingfrombrunchwithfriendstodinnerpartiestogamenightstodrinkingatbarsandeverythinginbetween.TheUnitedStatesisn’ttheonlyplacewhereyou’llfindaheavyemphasisonsocialtime.AcrosstheAtlantic,theUnitedKingdomisknownforbeinganextremelyextroverted(外向型的)country.AsurveyofBritsfoundthatmorethanhalfhadneverdoneandwouldbeunwillingtodoactivitieslikegoingtothemeparksorseeinglivemusicalone.MostBritsspendalmosttwiceasmuchoftheirleisuretimesocialisingwithothersastheydobeingalone.Thehomecanbeaplaceofrest,relaxationandrecharge—thatis,ifyoulivebyyourselforhavethespacetobealoneinyourhome.ThecountryinwhichpeopleareleastlikelytolivealoneisIndia,atabout4percentofthepopulation.Chinaisalsoquitefondofmultiple-personhouseholds,withonlyabout10percentofpeoplelivingbythemselves.Inmorecollectivistcultureslikethese,manyaspectsoflifearerelatedtocommunity.Thus,spendingtimealoneisn’tasingrained(根深蒂固的)asasocialconventioninplaceslikethese,andthegoodofthegrouptakespriorityovertheneedsofoneperson.5．Whatcanwelearnfromthefirstparagraph?A．Peoplecanbenefitmorefromsolitude.B．Peopletendtosocialisemorenowadays.C．Beingalonegenerallyequalsbeinglonely.D．Beingaloneenablespeopletobecarefree.6．WhichofthefollowingbestdescribesyoungAmericans?A．Imaginativeandwild.
