英语阅读中国文化答案
In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving in restaurants is often large; too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.
1. Which statement is true?
A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
B. A hostess always seats a small group at a large table.
C. American people never sit with people they don’t know.
D. American people would not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
2. What is served before you order?
A. bread B. butter C. coffee D. cold water
3. What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?
A. They take the food home with a doggie bag for their dogs.
B. They leave the food on the table and go away.
C. They take the food home with a doggie bag and enjoy the food later.
D. They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.
4. Sunday dinner is_______.
A. a dinner in the evening B. A big noon meal
C. a big lunch on Sunday D. A supper on Sunday
这是一篇讲美国人的用餐习俗的阅读。
As you know different countries have different customs. Also there are many gestures showing many meanings in many countries. Here are a few examples of gestures. A fisherman in Britain will show the size of a fish he has caught by holding his two hands, palms(手掌) facing each other, the right distance apart in front of him. But the one from certain part of Africa will measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand. In Britain the gesture to show the number “one” is made by holding up the index finger (the second finger), but in Switzerland it is the thumb—the first finger which is held up. Some people point at objects with finger, others by sticking out the lips. The gesture for “come here” is made in Britain with the index finger, which is held, pointing upwards, at eye level and bent towards the body; in Egypt the hand is held at arm’s length, palm downwards, and the fingers are then bent. The difference between the movements is very important, and the meanings of the same gestures maybe opposite in different countries. It may bring trouble to those not well known with it.
1. This passage is mainly about _______.
A. different people in different countries B. how to understand the gestures in Britain
C. the different gestures D. how to show a gesture in Egypt
2Sometimes difference between the movements in different countries may bring about _______ to you.
A. a good luck B. a new world C. all ill effect D. happiness
3 How will the Africans express if the object’s size is longer than their left arms?
A. Take a string to show it. B. Keep silent.
C. Bring the object to the spot. D. In another way.
4According to the passage we should _______.
A. look before we leap B. pick and choose
C. strike while the iron is hot D. do in Rome as the Romans do
这是篇中西方习俗的。答案就先不给你发了，希望你认真做，等你做完以后可以把你的答案告诉我，我再告诉你正确的。

【试题评析】
今年的大学英语四级翻译真题从选材上来看继续延续了之前的出题风格，依然是和中国特色及 传统文化 有关。去年的四级翻译真题就考过“黄色的象征”，“在中国文化中，黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色，因为它具有独特的象征意义。”从 句子 翻译的难度上看，四级对翻译能力的考查注重的是基本能力，没有太复杂的结构，比如大家很熟悉的not only... but also 的并列不就又出现了嘛!还有，遇到多个汉语谓宾结构时要注意分词结构的使用，这一直是语法当中要求要掌握的重点。所以之后备考大学英语四六级的同学们一定要好好学习历年英语四六级真题，因为会出现重复题材或者重复句型结构哦!

You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called “ABC”? You may like eating bananas. But do you know there are people called “banana persons”? If you don’t know, I will tell you. They are Chinese people like you and me, but they aren’t in China.Why do people call them like that?
“ABC” means American-born Chinese. An “ABC” is a Chinese,
but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people also call them
“banana persons”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So when
a person is a banana, he or she is white (American) inside and yellow (Chinese)
outside.
They are born in America and they live in America for a long time. Even
their nationality(国籍) is American. So they think like Americans and do things
like Americans. But they still have Chinese blood(血). Their parents, grandparents
or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.
So they look like us Chinese people. For example, we all know the famous scientist
C.N.Yang. He is an “ABC” and he is a “banana person”. We like him, although(虽然)
his nationality isn’t Chinese.
57.What does “ABC” mean?

Take a look at teenagers around, dressed in baggy-pants (宽松裤), drinking soft drinks such as coke, reading Japanese cartoons. Whether you are in Beijing, Wuhan or Hong Kong, you will get the same impression. But should we others or should we maintain (保留) our differences?
It sounds convenient that people around the world speak the same language, dress in the same style, eat the same food and play the same games. If the world was like this, you won’t feel strange in any corner of world. But just imagine living in such a strange world. How ll and colorless it would be!
Different kinds of food that people can taste, the colorful and fashionable clothes that we dress in and different languages we speak are all part of the different cultures that our ancestors left us. These differences represent their creativity (创造力) and talent. And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily lives. When you travel to other places, you want to see different things. When you talk to foreigners you expect to listen to interesting stories. These differences in culture are what make life colorful.
But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization (全球化) takes effect and many different cultures are disappearing. In most big cities around the world people wear the same clothes. Fast food stores are everywhere. Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives. The colors of our life are disappearing.
There is joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colorful life. So let’s take action to protect our colorful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white.
It’s not difficult. Learning some folk songs, trying on a traditional clothing and even eating local food instead of going to KFC can help. And we’re sure you will enjoy it.

On February 3rd，1949，New York Harbor(港) was an exciting place.Many people were
there to greet a ship from France.On the ship were 49 French railroad
boxcars(火车车厢) filled with gifts from the people of France to the people of
America.These boxcars were from the famous Merci Train (Merci，a French word
meaning "thank you").
After world War Ⅱ(二战)，a lot of factories，roads and farms in France had been
destroyed.Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and
little to eat.In the winter of 1947，a train was sent across the United
States，stopping in cities and towns along the way.At every stop，people gave
whatever they could.Factories gave clothing and medicine.Farmers gave
food.Families gave money.Even school children gave away their pocket
money(零用钱).All the things were then taken to France by ship.
By 1949，the French had begun to recover(恢复) from the war.The Merci Train
was their way of saying "thank you" to America.French people had filled the
boxcars with gifts.Most of them were personal，like hand-made toys，children's
drawings，or postcards.But the boxcars themselves were perhaps the most
meaningful of the gifts.On each car，the French people had painted the pictures
of all their 40 provinces，with an American eagle on the front.The boxcars were
taken to each state of America，where they were warmly greeted.
Now many of the states still keep their boxcars.Gifts sent by the French
people can still be seen in some museums.The Merci Train came out of the war，but
it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace(和平).

(五)社会万象
在中考阅读理解中，本话题包括的题材很多，它们来自生活，来自社会，针对这些题材要求抓住关键的句子和一些与考查内容有关的问题所在，这样便于我们解题时“顺藤摸瓜”，找出问题的答案。这种题型一般是对文章理解能力的考查，抓住文章的关键句和关键词是非常重要的。
解题思路：看清题干，明确把握问题指向，带着问题读文章，避免“回视”现象，提高做题的速度，提高解题质量。
例如：
In most cultures，when you meet people you know for the first time ring a
day，it is usual to greet them.Once a young woman from England went to Hong Kong
to work.When she first arrived，she knew little about the Chinese culture of
language.On her way to school one day，she went to a bank to get some money.To
her surprise，the bank clerk asked her if she had had her lunch.She was surprised
at such a question because in the British culture it would mean an invitation to
lunch.Between unmarried young people it can also mean the young man's interest
in dating the girl.Since this bank clerk was a stranger to the British woman，she
was very puzzled，and quickly answered that she had eaten already.After this she
went on to school and was even more surprised when one of the teachers asked her
the same question.
By now she understood that it could not be an invitation but was puzzled as
to why they asked it.In the following days she was asked the same question again
and again and she spent many hours trying to work out why so many people kept
asking her this.At last she thought that these people must be concerned
about(关心) her health.She was rather thin at the time，and she thought they must
be worrying that she was not eating well!
In fact the question like that has no real meaning at all — it is only a
greeting.
根据短文内容，判断句子的正误，正确的在括号内写“T”，错误的写“F”。
( ) 1.The young British woman went to Hong Kong for work.
( ) 2.The British woman went to the bank to get some money.
( ) 3.The bank clerk invited the young British woman to lunch.
( ) 4.The teacher's question made the British woman happy.
( ) 5.In fact the young British woman didn't know much about Chinese
culture.
答案解析
1.T 根据“Once a young woman from England...”可知这年轻英国妇女是来香港工作的，故此句表述是正确的。
2.T 根据“...she went to a bank to get some money.”可知此句表述是正确的。
3.F 通过本文最后一句我们可以了解到，在中国问别人“吃了吗”是表问候，而不一定是真正的想请人吃饭。故此句的错误的。
4.F 根据“After this she went on to school and was even more
surprised...”可知此句表述是错误的。
5.T 根据文章内容我们知道，这位英国妇女对中国文化不是很了解，所以对“if she had had her lunch”产生困惑。
当然，中考英语阅读理解题的材料远不止这些种类，但只要运用了上面的基本的解题技巧，也能把这个题型做得很好。

『捌』 中国文化英语教程课后习题答案
顶级问题。
不针对题主，但是，文化可千万别这么学啊！
文化的东西是特定的，只有特定的语言跟特定的文化搭配才是那个文化的语言，那个语言的文化。汉语的文化只能用汉语学，英文的文化也只能用英文学，不能交叉，根本就学不会的！
很多人真的是不懂，上当白上。比如马克思爱因斯坦，真要学明白，要直接用德文来学！就算是德国人都不见得个个能学明白。那些把他们翻译成中文的，哪个敢说达到了老马老爱的水平？哪个敢说超越了？本来就是降级，那些个只能读中文的，又降了级！难道还能整明白诞生了马克思爱因斯坦的文化吗？
有说这是本书，当然了，是书。不过，如果是汉字比英文还多的书，对学习到文化级别的人士来说，（注意这里说到已经达到能学习文化的级别，也即能直接用外语文等来玩儿外语文化的级别，不是初级水平）是废书！
还有一个重要的概念：文化是活出来的，不是学出来的！活人要在那个文化里面活命，才能体会认识！
不信就算了。
还有就是傻X似乎越来越多了！
