formal spanish influences. this is reflected in the architecture, not just the difference between the old and the modern in urban areas but also in the countryside, where older buildings sit side by side with schools and houses. it is found in the cooking, too many fast food restaurants together with local cooking which has its roots in the mixture of culture of all the caribbean and in the music, where rock music is played in beach resorts(圣地)but in the hilly center, puerto rican music can be heard. old volcanic mountains, long motionless, take up a large part of the center, with the highest peak, cerro de punta, at 1,338 m in the cordillera. the mountains are surrounded by a coastal plain with the atlantic shore beaches cooled all the year round by trade winds(信风) the population is 3.8 million, of which about 1.5 million live in san juan, although about another two million puerto ricans live in the usa. average life is 73.8 years and gdp per person is us $ 12,212, the highest in latin america, although not up to the level of mainland usa. the people are largely a mixture of amerindian, tainoarawak, spanish and african. most puerto ricans do not speak english and less than

resultca mixture of very new and very olddpuerto rico答案：c语意理解题。应向前找，再向后看看it代表的内容，此处是指既古老又现代的混合体。it在句中作代词，指代前一句中的名词或短语，首先可以排除b。a result，因为“as a result”是插入语，a项the country虽然意思正确，但与c项相比就相对间接了；而d项puerto rico比a项更加间接，故排除。3whats the character of the culture of puerto rico?aeither new or old.ba mixture of different peoples.ctoo many fast food restaurants.deither spanish or
