B_________ 八、阅读理解：(10’) As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative (消极的)meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive(积极的)actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel(冷酷的). There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well. The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for(代表)love, peace(和平), courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries. The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing(比较) how some words are used. ( )1. The word “dog” in Chinese usually _______.

The truck was full of glasses and they were all broken. The driver came out of the truck and looked at the broken glasses. He was very sad and people in the street felt sorry for him. Then an old man walked over to the driver, looked at him for a few minutes and said, “My poor boy! I think you must pay a lot for this.” “Yes,” was the sad answer. “Well, well,” said the old man, “ hold out your hat-here’s some money for you, and I can say that some of these people will give you a helping hand, too.”Then he walked away. The driver held out his hat and over a hundred people came and put their money in it. At last, the driver took out a bag and put all the money in it. Then he looked at the people and said, “Well, thank you very much. But you didn’t know that the old man is the owner of the car. I’m driving and making money for him.” (责任编辑：admin) |
