只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。 1 模拟演练(三) A Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot. In a bowl of salad,all the ingredients are mixed together. 1 Together,however, the ingredients make up a unity.All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product.They may be covered with the same dressing(调味酱),but the green vegetables,tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are. From this point of view,America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups mix together,yet maintain their cultural uniqueness.People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies,but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life. 2 Each ethnic group has its own special customs,language,food and traditions to protect and defend.This idea of the salad bowl is referred to as cultural diversity; that is,American society is a collection of various cultures living together in harmony within one country. 3 Here,society is like one large pot of soup.All cultural aspects are mixed together,sacrificing their original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality.The longer the soup is cooked,the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve.In this sense,America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation. There are dozens of shared symbols. 4 In such a culture,symbols like the flag and the nation’s official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups. Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot,America can be best described as a mixture of both. 5 A.Both are correct depending on one’s point of view. B.They never lose their shapes,colors or tastes. C.This is why there is so much diversity within America. D.In other words,America is a nation where there is unity in diversity. E.Thus,one needs to abandon one’s culture to be considered “American”. F.They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。 2 G.The other theory,which is also used to describe American society,is the melting pot. 语篇解读 本文是一篇论述性的文章。文章主要讲述了人们对美国社会的形容。一些人认为 它是一个沙拉碗,另一些人认为它是一个大熔炉。 1.答案 B 解析 由空后的“Together,however,the ingredients make up a unity.”及本段最后一 句中的“...can be seen for what they are.”可知选 B 项。 2.答案 C 解析 全段都是讲的美国有如此多的差异性的原因,故选 C 项。 3.答案 G 解析 从空后面一句“...society is like one large pot of soup.”这是和前面不同的观 点。所以 G 为正确选项。 4.答案 F 解析 由关键词 In such a culture,可以推断选项 F 中的 a new American culture 与之相 符。所以 F 为正确选项。 5.答案 D 解析 总结句选择。由 In other words 可以看出这是对本文总结的另一种说法。所以 D 为正 确选项。 B Moving abroad can be a challenging experience.You leave your family,friends and everything you know behind.You enter a new culture where the customs and sometimes the languages are different. 6 .It’s a time to discover new things,make new friends and begin a new adventure.

The term “thirdculture kid”(or TCK) was coined in the 1960s by Dr.Ruth.She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 in India.Caught between two cultures,they form their very own. 11 About 90 percent of them have a university degree,while 40 percent pursue a postgraduate or doctor degree.They usually benefit from their intercultural experience,which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals. 12 In fact many hardships may arise from this phenomenon.A thirdculture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected.Instead,they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures.Max, for example,experienced this fundamental feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a thirdculture kid. 13 While this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world,it can be difficult for a thirdculture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships. For a thirdculture kid,it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their “home” country.After living in Australia and South Korea for many years,Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager.But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born. 14 She did not share the same values as her friends’ even years after going back home. While a thirdculture kid must let go of their identity as foreigner when he/she returns,the home country can prove to be more foreign than anything he/she came across before.The peer group they face does not match the idealized image children have of “home”. 15 As a part of the growing “culture”,TCKs may find it a great challenge for them to feel at home in many places. A.Yet being a thirdculture kid is not always easy. B.In general,they often reach excellent academic results. C.This often makes it hard for them to form their own identity. D.However,their parents can help them see the opportunities of a mobile lifestyle. E.Their experience abroad helps them to gain a better understanding of cultural differences. F.Unlike other teens of her age,she didn’t know anything about current TV shows or fashion trends. G.Additionally,making new friends and saying goodbye to old ones will at some point become routine for a thirdculture kid. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了什么是 Thirdculture Kids,以及他们在日常生 活中的境遇。 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 11.答案 B 解析 后文涉及到大约 90%的人都是大学学历,40%的人有着更高的研究生或博士学历,可知 大体而言,他们都有着很高的学历,所以答案是 B。 12.答案 A 解析 本段提到 TCK 实际上也会遇到很多的困难,所以答案是 A。 13.答案 G 解析 前文提到 TCK 要经历一段陌生的经历,空后讲他们与别人的友谊,所以答案是 G。 14.答案 F 解析 TCK 回到自己出生时的国家,跟同龄的孩子并不一样,他们对时尚趋势和电视节目一 无所知,而且和朋友们的价值观也不一样,所以答案是 F。 15.答案 C 解析 前文提到他们所面对的同龄人和他们心目中的理想形象并不相符,这样就很难形成自 己的认知,所以答案是 C。 D How to Improve Eyesight Naturally Eyes are important for everybody.You must take care and try everything in your hand to keep them in good condition.Here are some of the tips to improve your eyesight naturally. 16 Strain is known to be a factor in many health conditions and eyestrain(眼 疲劳) is no exception.Try meditation,yoga or other methods of stress relief to improve your vision and overall health.
