Unit 5 Meeting your ancestors.阅读理解(建议用时16)A2016四川高考In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest, there still remain unusual groups of indigenous (土著的) people. Surprisingly, these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs. And yet, people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony (殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946. In theory， they should live by the French law. However, their remote locations mean that the French law is often ignored or unknown, thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area, which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest, with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital, Cayenne.“I have a special love for the French Guianese people. I have worked there on and off for almost ten years，” says Gin. “Ive been able to keep firm friendships with them. Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment. I dont see it as a lawless land. But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life，” continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black and white, which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.” His blackandwhite pictures present a world almost lost in time. These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for. These local citizens now have to balance their traditional selfsupporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic, which brings with it not only necessary state welfare, but also alcoholism, betrayal and even suicide.篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文，题材为社会生活类。在远离法国本土的圭亚那的热带雨林深处还有一些法属土著居民。由于居住地偏远，他们过着一种未开化的生活，但同时也受到了现代法国生活方式的影响。1Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?AThey seldom follow the French law.BThey often ignore the Guianese law.CThey are separated from the modern world.DThey are both Guianese and French citizens.答案：A细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Surprisingly，these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.(让人惊讶的是，这些人主要按照他们自己的法律和社会习俗生活。)”可知，他们很少遵守法国法律。故答案为A项。2Gin introduces the special world of the indigenous Guianese as_.Aa tour guide Ba geographerCa film director Da photographer答案：D细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“a photographic record”可知，Gin是以一个摄影师的身份来向人们介绍这些土著居民的。故答案为D项。A项，一个导游；B项，一个地理学家；C项，一位电影导演。3What is Gins attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese?ACautious.

Modern businesses have been following his lead， with more tactics (策略)One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the womens shoe section is generally next to the womens cosmetics (化妆品) section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decision in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。你知道现在的商家是如何吸引顾客的吗？他们效仿古埃及店主的做法，通过对购物环境做一些改变及其他更多策略来吸引顾客。5Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?ATo save customers times.BTo show they are high quality foods.CTo help sell junk food.DTo sell them at discount prices.答案：C细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy some more junk food later in their trip.”可知，此举目的是为了能够在稍后卖出那些垃圾食品。故选C项。6According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?AOpening the store early in the morning.BDisplaying British wines next to French ones.CInviting customers to play music.DFilling the store with the smell of fresh bread.答案：D细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day.”可知，烤面包的味道能促进顾客购物，因此他们让面包味充满着整个商店。故选D项。7What is the California builders story intended to prove?AThe house structure is a key factor customers consider.BThe more costly the house is, the better it sells.CAn ocean view is much to the customers taste.DA good first impression increases sales.答案：D推理判断题。最后一段中的a California builder这个故事是个例子，用来说明前面的内容。该段主要是说顾客在进门的头几秒钟就会做出是否购买的决定，由此可推知，良好的第一印象会有助于增加销量。故选D项。8What is the main purpose of the passage?ATo explain how businesses turn people into their customers.BTo introduces how businesses have grown from the past.CTo report researches on customer behavior.DTo show dishonest business practices.答案：A推理判断题。文章的第一段就点明了主题。本文主要介绍的是商家是通过哪些手段把人们变成顾客的。故选A项。1display vt. 展示；陈列 2.wander v. 闲逛；漫步3seek vt. 寻找；寻求4rewarding adj. 值得做的；有益的5instant adj. 立即的；立刻的1follow ones lead 效仿；仿照2appeal to 吸引；引起兴趣.七选五(建议用时8)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。2017成都诊断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 nations 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_ABoth are correct depending on ones point of view.BThey never lose their shapes, colors or tastes.CThis is why there is so much diversity within America.DIn other words, America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.EThus, one needs to abandon ones culture to be considered “American”FThey serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.GThe other theory, which is also used to describe American society, is the melting pot.篇章导读：文章主要说明了美国社会被称为沙拉碗以及大熔炉的原因。1B根据上下文可知在沙拉碗里，各种沙拉的成分混合在一起，但它们还都保持各自的形状，颜色及口味，所以答案是B。2C根据上下文可知，这就是为什么在美国有如此多样性的原因，每一个民族都有自己的语言及风俗习惯等，所以答案是C。3G下文主要讲述了美国社会被称为大熔炉的原因，所以答案是G。4F根据上下文可知，来自世界不同地方的人来美国定居，他们创造出一种新的美国文化，所以答案是F。5D根据上下文可知，美国是沙拉碗还是大熔炉，美国最好可以被称为两者的混合物。也就是说，美国是一个具有多样性统一的国家，所以答案是D。.语法填空(建议用时8)阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。 A motto is a sentence or a phrase _1_ can inspire us especially when we are _2_ (face) with difficulties.
