He wanted to learn more about American culture and hoped that he and Steve would become good friends. At first, Steve seemed

23、very friendly. He always greeted (問候) Yaser warmly before class. He even invited Yaser to have lunch with him. But after the semester was over, Steve seemed more distant (疏遠的). The two former classmates didnt see each other very much at school. One day Yaser decided to call Steve but Steve didnt see

24、m very interested in talking to him. Yaser was hurt by Steves change of attitude. “Steve said we were friends.” Yaser complained, “and I thought friends were friends for ever.” Yaser is a little confused (困惑的). As a foreigner, he doesnt understand the way Americans view friendship. l Steve和Yaser第一次見

25、面是在一所美國大學的化學課上。Yaser當時是來自約旦的國際學生。他想對美國文化有更多了解，希望能和Steve成為朋友。最開始，Steve似乎很友善。課前他總是熱情地問候Yaser。他甚至邀請Yaser一起吃午餐。但學期結(jié)束后，Steve似乎疏遠了。兩個昔日的同班同學在學校不常見面了。有一天，Yaser決定給Steve打電話，然而Steve卻對和他交談沒什么興趣。Yaser因為Steve態(tài)度的轉(zhuǎn)變感到傷心?！癝teve曾說，我們是朋友?！盰aser抱怨說，“我以為我們會一直是朋友?！盰aser有點困惑。作為外國人，他不太明白美國人的友誼觀。34Reading comprehensionl Am

26、ericans use the word “friend” in a very general way. They may call both casual acquaintances (熟人) and close companions (同伴，同事) “friends”. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may fade (消失，結(jié)束). In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long bond (聯(lián)系，關系) between two people. In these cul

27、tures friendships develop slowly, since they are built to last. But American society is in rapid change. Studies show that one out of five American families moves every year. American friendships develop quickly, and they may change quickly as well. People from the United States may at first seem fr

28、iendly. Americans often chat (聊天) easily with strangers. But American friendliness (友誼, 友善, 親切, 親密) is not always an offer of true friendship. After an experience like Yasers, people who have been in this country for only a few months may consider Americans to be fickle (在感情等方面變幻無常的). Learning how A

29、mericans view friendship can help non-Americans avoid misunderstandings. It can also help them make friends in the American way.l 美國人“朋友”一詞使用很廣。他們把熟人和同伴都稱為“朋友”。共同的活動結(jié)束后，友誼隨之結(jié)束。在有些文化中，友誼意味著兩個人之間一生的密切聯(lián)系。在這些文化中，友誼發(fā)展緩慢，不斷增強以維系。但美國社會變化很快。有研究表明，1/5的美國家庭每年搬家。美國人的友誼來得快，變得也快。美國人可能一開始很友善。他們很容易和陌生人聊天。但美國人的友誼并非

30、總是付出真正的友誼。有了像Yaser這樣的經(jīng)歷，在美國只待了幾個月的人會覺得美國人在感情方面變幻無常。了解美國人的友誼觀能幫助外國人避免誤解，也能幫助他們像美國人那樣交朋友。35Reading comprehensionlYaser felt hurt because _A_.lA. he didnt understand the way Americans view friendshiplB.

33、ns can avoid any misunderstanding so long as they know how Americans view friendship.lB. Non-Americans can certainly make friends in the American way provided they know how Americans view friendship.lC.

36、ak English with Chinese who have a good command of the language. It is essential to have the fundamentals (要義，基本原理) of English before communicating directly with a native speaker. Otherwise, the conversation may turn out to be frustration (沮喪，灰心). But most Chinese do not find these opportunities eas

37、ily. l 提高英語最重要的方法是和母語者直接接觸，在英語作為主要交流工具的環(huán)境中工作，或者和英語好的中國人說英語。和母語者直接交流前，掌握英語基礎知識很重要。否則，對話會陷入灰心失望。然而大多數(shù)中國人很難找到這樣的機會。41Reading comprehensionl Just as important as the ways mentioned above, reading English newspapers, essays (文章) or books would greatly improve ones English as well. In fact, native English

38、 speakers who read a great deal are usually good at oral (口頭上的) expression. Reading is very critical to a persons ability to speak well. It builds a vocabulary and phrasal use in context. This is a way to avoid chinglish. Reading helps to meet lots of phrasal and idiomatic (用許多習語的) usages and increa

39、se your knowledge on how to understand them and their patterns.l 閱讀英語報紙、文章和書籍和以上提到的方法一樣重要，也有助于大幅提高英語水平。事實上，英語母語者讀得多，通?？陬^表達也豐富。閱讀對一個人的口頭表達很關鍵，能在語境中積累單詞和詞組的用法。這是避免“中式英語”的方法。閱讀中能讀到許多詞組和習語用法，使我們更好地了解它們的意思和用法。 42Reading comprehensionl Students of English need to start reading materials like China Daily o

40、r other English language publications every day, in which many of the articles are written by native English speakers. Once you master newspapers, then move on to novels or books. You should read at least thirty minutes or more per day. It takes time and effort, but it will be rewarding (有回報的). Alwa

41、ys remember language will be improved if you are interested in it and insist on learning it. Never allow frustration to defeat you. Good luck and enjoy learning English! l 學習英語的學生需要開始每天閱讀中國日報等英語刊物。這些刊物中的許多文章的作者是英語母語者。一旦報紙讀熟了，接下來就可以讀小說和書籍。每天至少閱讀半個小時以上。這需要花時間和精力，但會有回報。牢記：如果有興趣且堅持學習，語言就會有提高。絕不要讓挫折打敗你。祝

49、t least thirty minutes or more per day. It takes time and effort, but it will be rewarding.”48Reading comprehensionl One-room schools are part of the heritage (遺產(chǎn)) of the United States, and the mention of them makes people feel a slight longing for “the way things were.” One-room schools are faced w

50、ith a danger of dying out, however. For more than a hundred years, one-room schools have been systematically (系統(tǒng)地) shut down and their students sent away to centralized (集中的) schools. As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one-room schools in the United States. By 1970 there were 1,800. Today, of th

51、e nearly 800 remaining one-room schools, more than 350 are in Nebraska. The rest are scattered (分散) through a few other states that have their road maps on wide-open spaces between towns. l一間教室學校是美國傳統(tǒng)之一，一提到它，人們就有點向往“過去的方式”。然而，這樣的學校面臨消亡。一百多年來，一間教室的學校已經(jīng)被系統(tǒng)地關閉，學生也被送到集中的學校里。1930年，美國有149000所一間教室學校；到1970年

52、，只有1800所。今天，還有將近800所一間教室學校存在，其中350所在內(nèi)布拉斯卡州。其它的分散在為數(shù)不多的其它幾個州，在這些州的公路地圖上，城鎮(zhèn)之間距離遙遠。49Reading comprehensionl Now that there are hardly any left, educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one-room schools, something that served the pioneers (先驅(qū)) that might serv

53、e as well today. In a one-room school the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else. A fourth grader can work at a fifth-grade level in math and a third-grade level in English without feeling shame of being left back or the pressures of being skippe

54、d (跳過) ahead. A youngster with a learning disability (無能) can find his or her own level without being separated from the other pupils. In larger urban (城市的) and suburban (郊外的) schools today, this is called “mainstreaming.” A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom make many parents f

55、eel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is that their children will go to a one-room school. l因為所剩無幾，教育學家開始思考也許能從一間教室學校學到一些東西，這些東西能滿足教育先驅(qū)的需要，今天也許也有用。在一間教室學校，學生們互相學習，因為老師大部分時間忙著教別的孩子。四年級學生可以上五年級的數(shù)學課，也能上三年級的英語課，不會因為落后或者被別人超過帶來的壓力而羞愧。有學習障礙的小孩子會發(fā)現(xiàn)他和其他同學的等級沒有不同。在今天更大的城市活郊區(qū)學校，這被稱為“把身體上或智力上有缺陷

56、的學生編入學校正規(guī)班級 ”。在一間教室的小學校待幾個小時讓許多家長感到住在內(nèi)布拉斯卡的優(yōu)勢之一是孩子們能上一間教室學校。50Reading comprehensionlMention of one-room schools makes Americans _C_.lA. hope that they can return to early timeslB. feel shamedlC. long for the old times vaguelylD. become positive in lifel“One-room schools are part of the heritage of t

AlA. Many of them have been closed according to a fixed plan.lB. They have become more and more popular.lC. They are prohibited in the U.S. now.lD.
