athere are three ways for chinese who want to have a foreign name. b. at present many chinese people prefer to have twocharacter names. c. many chinese people have not only a given name but a nickname as well. d. in chinese traditional culture，there was often one character in a given name.答案与解析d由第二段的“sometimes adopt a westernized name by simply changing the surname given name order to given name surname， or adding a western first name to their surname, which is then written in the usual western order with the surname last. other chinese people sometimes take a combined name，” 可知有三种方法，所以a项正确，由第三段第一句中可得b项正确，由最后一段中“many chinese have various kinds of nicknames” 可知c项正确。d项中的one character应是two characters。4what can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? ain western culture, the generation name is not used in the first part of their given name. b. chinese people seldom refer to others only by their generation name. c. the surname should be used when referring to a person with a generation name. d. if the generation name is close to the given name, it will be taken as the first name.答案与解析b在第四段中，我们知道仅叫某人的generation name往往使人们产生误会，所以b项的结论符合推理。而a、c、d三项的意思与事实相反。blast year, i lived in chile for half a year. i lived with a chilean family and had the responsibilities of any chilean teenager. i had good days and bad days i didnt understand.chuquicamata, my host community, is a mining camp. when i arrived there, i was scared. it was so different from what i was used to. there were lots of dogs on the streets, and there was no downtown, few smoothly paved streets, and little to do for entertainment. rain was not seen very often, earthquakes and windstorms were frequent.i had studied spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. but in my first week in chile i was only able to communicate and needed one person to whom i could explain my shock. i couldnt speak the thoughts in my head and there were so many.most exchange students experience this like me. culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite (食欲). i was required to overcome all difficulties.as time passed, everything changed. i began to forget words in english and to dream in spanish and love chilean food. i got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. fun in chuquicamata was being with people. and i took math, physics, chemistry, biology, spanish, art, and philosophy.but the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain. i learned how to accept and to succeed in another culture. i now have a deeper understanding of both myself and others.5the author came to chile last year with the purpose of _.apaying a visit to chile as a touristb. experiencing chilean life as a teacherc. studying chilean culture as a college studentd. studying knowledge as an exchange student答案与解析d根据第三段中的“i had studied spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class.”和第四段中的“most exchange students experience this like me.”可判断作者是一名交换生。6on arriving in chile, why did the author feel frightened?abecause he did not know how to get along with the local people.b. because it was full of dangers like earthquakes and windstorms.c. because its living conditions were worse than what he was used to.d. because it was not convenient for him to shop there.答案与解析c根据文章第二段：“it was so different from what i was used to.”，再从街道环境、购物环境、娱乐设施、自然条件等方面描写智利的比较差的生活条件，由此可知作者是因为智利的生活条件比他原先的
