eginPartBwiththefirstpassage.Passage1: 中餐桌上最神奇、最有特色的用餐工具莫过于筷子。几千年来我们中国人一直视筷子为一种最简单同时也是最有效的用餐工具。// 关于筷子的用料，其种类各有不同，选材包括竹子、木材、玉石、象牙、塑料、金银等。// 对于西方人来说，掌握用筷的方法和技巧在开始时也许难度很大，但是只要有耐心，用心去练，不久便可以熟练地使用筷子享用中餐。// 如果想享用一顿真正意义上的中餐，那么花时间耐心学习用筷子技艺不仅很有必要，而且也很有趣。Passage2: 中国是一个多民族国家，具有经济发展不平衡的特点。在这块辽阔的土地上，人们使用多种语言和方言。//几十年来，尽管政府一直号召推广普通话，作为标准汉语，但在相当多的人口中，普通话还未能成为日常使用的交流工具。//这显然阻碍了经济发展与社会进步。毫无疑问，推广和提倡使用普通话对加快中国改革开放的步伐是举足轻重的。//这样做，将有助于提高汉语信息管理技术，因此，符合全体中国人民的根本利益。B卷参考答案:PartAPassage1：误导性广告是现代社会的一大疾病。一支烟象征着独立，一条名牌牛仔裤或一双名牌旅游运动鞋给人以身份。// 我们所有人在其一生中无时不受广告的影响。少年，尤其是少女，特别容易受到广告的侵袭，因为他们是消费市场上无经验的新客户。// 广告商充分意识到他们的作用，毫不犹豫地利用青年人的不安全感和焦躁心理，假装可以为他们排忧解难。// 广告试图让我们相信：产品可以使我们充实，可以满足我们人类最深层次的需要，一个人的价值取决于所用产品的价值。没有哪一个政治家或教育家具有广告那么强的说服力。Passage2: 为什么北京和华盛顿要走到一块？为什么这是唯一选择？//从根本上说，这是出于两国人民的民族利益；这种利益起了决定性的作用，拥用最后发言权。//在国际关系中，所谓的利益规律充当着根本的、重要的原则。正是两国的民族利益促使两国共同努力和谐共处，进行多种交流，多方合作。//总之，我们互相需要，不用说，这种合作肯定有利于亚太地区以及整个世界的繁荣和幸福。PartBPassage1:
