第二局部：阅读理解〔共两节，总分值40分〕
第一节〔共15小题；每题2分，总分值30分〕
阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最正确选项。

A
No two cultures are the same. The American and Indian cultures have very vast differences between them. While the culture of America is a mixture of different cultures, the Indian culture is unique and has its own values.
One of the major differences that can be seen between American and Indian cultures is in family relations. While the Indians are very much family oriented, the Americans are individual oriented. In Indian culture, the family values are attached to more importance than the individual values. Indians respect family values. On the other hand, in American culture the individual values get more importance than the family values.
In another sense, it can be said that the American culture is more goal oriented and the Indian culture is more people or family oriented. Indians may even forsake their individual wishes and also happiness for the sake of families. But in American culture, this trend cannot be seen.
Unlike the Indians, the Americans plan things ahead. The Americans believe in dominating nature and controlling the environment around them. On the contrary, Indians believe in the harmony with nature. Another difference that can be seen between Indian culture and American culture is that the Indians love stability whereas the Americans love mobility.
In American culture, one can see that individuals think of self-reliance. On the other hand, Indians are more dependent on others. While the children in the US are brought up to live an independent life, the children in India are not brought up in that way. In Indian culture, there is respect for the elders and it is they who make decisions. But in American culture, each individual makes his own decisions.
Coming to competition, Indians are more competitive than the Americans. Coming to work nature, the Indians work for meeting the family needs. On the contrary, an American will only strive to rise on his own capacity. Another difference that can be seen is that Americans have great regard for time and its value while Indians are different.
21. From Paragraph 2, we know that compared to Americans, Indians __________.
A. pay more attention to themselves
B. are more committed to their families
C. attach less importance to their culture
D. don’t value so many things in their life
22. What does the underlined w ord “forsake〞 in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. give up
B. show off
C.expose to
D. take up
23. What is implied about children in India?
A. They often struggle to become independent.
B. They usually don’t show much respect for the elderly.
C. They are usually not encouraged to make decisions.
D. They are taught to depend on themselves from an early age.
24. This passage is mainly developed by __________.
A. analyzing causes
B. showing features
C. making comparisons
D. describing a process
B
Just five one-hundredths of an inch thick, light golden in color and with a perfect “saddle curl,〞the Lay’s potato chip seems an unlikely weapon for global domination. But its maker Frito-Lay thinks otherwise. “Potato chips are a snack food for the world,〞said Salman Amin, the company’s head of global marketing. Amin believes there is no corner of the world that can resist the charms of a Frito-Lay potato chip.
Frito-Lay is the biggest snack maker in America, owned by PepsiCo, and accounts for over half of the parent company’s $3 billion annual profits. But the U.S. snack food market is largely saturated〔饱和的〕, and to grow, the company has to look overseas.
Its strategy rests on two beliefs: first a global product offers economies of scale with which local brands cannot compete. And second, consumers in the 21st
century are drawn to “global〞as a concept. “Global〞 does not mean products that are consciously identified as American, but ones that consumers— especially young people — see as part of a modern, innovative (创新的) world in which people are linked across cultures by shared beliefs and tastes. Potato chips are an American invention, but most Chinese, for instance, do not know that Frito-Lay is an American company. Instead, Riskey, the company’s rese arch and development head, would hope they associate the brand with the new world of global communications and business.
With brand perception a crucial factor, Riskey ordered a redesign of the Frito-Lay logo. The logo, along with the company’s long-held marketing image of the “irresistibility〞of its chips, would help with the company’s global expansion.
The executives acknowledge that they try to swing national eating habits to a food created in America, but they deny that amounts to economic imperialism〔帝国主义〕. They see Frito-Lay as spreading the benefits of free enterprise across the world. “We’re making products in those countries, we’re adapting them to the tastes of those countries, building businesses and employing people and changing lives,〞 sa id Steve Reinemund, PepsiCo’s chief executive.
25. It is the belief of Frito-Lay’s head of global marketing that_____.
A. Potato chips can hardly be used as a weapon to dominate the world market
B. Their company must find new ways to promote domestic sales.
C. The light golden color enhances the charm of their company’s potato chips
D. People over the world enjoy eating their company’s potato chips
26. What do we learn about Frito-Lay from Paragraph 2?
A. Its products used to be popular among overseas consumers.
B. Its expansion has caused fierce competition in the snack market.
C. It gives half of its annual profits to its parent company.
D. It needs to turn to the world market for development.
27. One of the assumptions on which Frito-Lay bases its development strategy is that_____.
A. consumers worldwide today are attracted by global brands
B. local brands cannot compete successfully with American brands
C. products suiting Chinese consumers’ needs bring more profits
D. products identified as American will have promising market value
28. Why did Riskey have the Frito-Lay logo redesigned?
A. To suit changing tastes of young consumers.
B. To promote the company's strategy of globalization.
C. To change the company’s long-held marketing image.
D. To compete with other American chip producers.
C
29. If you choose all the four brunches listed, you should pay ________.
30. What can you buy if you have only one dollar?
A. Canteen approved chips.
B. Reduced fat flavored Oak milk.
C. Bacon, egg and cheese hamburger.
D. Roast chicken, cucumber and tomato salad.
31. If you want to order something successfully you should ________.
A. pay 20 cents as a tip
B. put money in the basket
C. write the order on the blackboard
D. complete the order before 9:30 am
32. The text is most probably written for ________.
A. parents
B. students
C. waiters
D. cooks
D
Suppose that we lined up our roughly 14 million United States businesses in order of size, starting with the smallest, along an imaginary road from San Francisco to New York. There will be 4,500 businesses to the mile, or a little less than one per foot. Suppose further that we planted a flag each business. The height of the flag
pole represents the yearly volume of sales , each $ 10, 000 in sales in shown by one foot of pole.
The line of flagpoles is a very interesting sight. From San Francisco to about Reno, it is almost unnoticeable, a row of poles about a foot high. From Reno eastward the poles increase in height until, near Columbus, Ohio - about four - fifths of the way across the nation - flags fly about 10 feet in the air.
But as we approach the eastern terminus (终点) , the poles suddenly begin to mount (升高) . There are about 300, 000 firms in the country with sales over $ 500, 000. These firms take up the last 75 miles of the 3,000 - mile road. There are 200, 000 firms with sales over $ 1 million. They take up the last 50 miles. Then there are 1, 000 firms with sales of $ 50, 000, 000 or more. They take up the last quarter of a mile before the city limits, flags flying at cloud height, 5, 000 feet up.
At the very gate of New York, on the last 100 feet of the last mile, we find the 100 largest industrial firms. They have sales of at least $ 1.5 billion, so that their flags are already miles high. Along the last 10 feet of road, there are 10 largest companies. Their sales are roughly $ 10 billion and up : their flags fly 190 miles in the air , almost in the stratosphere (平流层) .
33. What is the author’s main purpose in this passage?
A. To tell the reason why the largest firms are in New York.
B. To show the geographical distribution (分布) of the United States businesses.
C. To provide a general idea of the size of businesses in the United States.
D. To tell us how the United States businesses are arranged.
34. What’s the correct order of the following places from east to west?
A. San Francisco, Reno, New York, Columbus.
B. San Francisco, Reno, Columbus, New York.
C. New York, Columbus, Reno, San Francisco
D. New York, Reno, Columbus, San Francisco
35. Which of the following diagrams shows the right order of size of the US
businesses , according to the text ?
< S = San Francisco R = Reno C = Columbus N = New York H = height F = feet >

参考范文：
Dear friends from Elizabeth College,
Welcome to Liaoning Province Shiyan High School. On behalf of my school,
I would like to extend our sincere welcome to you.
You can never imagine how amazing the arrangement is. To start with, a series of academic lectures are on the way concerning Chinese literature and cultures. Following that, there come the extracurricular visits to the most famous museums and tourist attractions. Most excitingly, you can have a
special period of home stay in the voluntary Chinese family.
Therefore, it will definitely be an unforgettable experience for every one of you. Well, the only thing I would like you to keep in mind is that if you fall in any situation hard to deal with, never hesitate to seek help, for all the members in Shiyan are so willing to give you a hand.
Thank you so much.。
