americans are involved with sports in some way.they may play baseball or volleyball or go swimming or skiing.they may watch football or basketball on the high school，college，or professional level.sports may seem like an innocent pleasure，but it is important to look under the surface.in reality，sports have reached a point where they play too large a role in daily life.they take up too much media time，play too large a role in the raising of children，and give too much power and prestige(声望) to athletes.the overemphasis(过度强调) on sports can be seen most obviously in the vast media coverage of athlete events.it seems as if every race，meet，or match is shown on one television channel or another.in addition，sports make up about 30 percent of local news.radio offers a full list of games and a wide variety of sports shows.furthermore，many daily papers such as us today are devoting more and more space to sports coverage.the way we raise and educate our children also illustrates our sports craziness.as early as six or seven，kids are placed in little leagues，often to play under screaming coaches and pressuring parents.later，in high school，students who are singled out by the school and the community are not those who are the best academically but those who are the best athletically.and college sometimes seems to be more about sports than about learning.the united states may be the only country in the world where people often think of their colleges as teams first and schools second.our sports craziness is especially evident in the prestige given to athletes in the united states.for one thing，we reward them with enormous salaries.in 1990，for example，baseball players averaged 350,000 a year；the average annual salary in the united states is 18,000.besides their huge salaries，athletes receive awe，admiration，and sometimes the votes of the public.why are americans so mad about sports？perhaps we like to see the competitiveness we experience in our daily lives acted out on playing fields. 答案精析.语篇解读本文描述了4个不同国家的中国城对于中国传统节日春节的各种庆祝方式，向我们介绍了这几个国家的不同特色的中国城。1.d推理判断题。根据london部分中的时间状语“during the 1950s”可知，伦敦唐人街是在20世纪50年代形成的；根据san francisco部分中的“during the early 19th century”可知，旧金山的中国城是在19世纪前期建立的，比其他城市都要早；根据bangkok部分中的“with an about 100yearold history”可知，曼谷的唐人街大约有100年的历史了；根据最后一段第二句可知，毛里求斯的唐人街是在20世纪早期形成的。故选d。2.c细节理解题。根据bangkok部分中的最后一句“the area is also known for its gold dealers，whose shops line the road.”可知，曼谷的唐人街因为黄金交易而闻名，路边有非常多的金店。故选c。3.a细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句可知，在春节期间，毛里求斯的中国城最令人激动的场景是在rue royale的舞龙和舞狮，故选a。.语篇解读本文讲述了作者帮助一位老人的故事。作者通过这件事，领悟到了“赠人玫瑰，手有余香”的道理。4.a根据下文对老人情形详细地描述可知“我”注意到了一位老妇人。notice注意到；hit 打击；hear about听说；wait for等候。故选a。5.b根据下文“she was her goods.”可知她的货物散落在人行道上。cart手推车；goods货物；food食品；clothes衣服。故选b。6.c根据上文可知她的车子翻了，货物散落在地上，所以此处是指她正在收集她的货物。donate捐赠；enjoy享受；collect收集，聚集；provide提供。故选c。7.d根据下文“as if she were a beggar”以及作者不顾别人的眼光去帮助她可知路过的人都躲避她，好像她是一个乞丐。serve服务；help帮助；scold责骂；avoid躲避。故选d。8.b根据作者脑海中的各种想法以及他向朋友询问可知他在犹豫。shout大喊；hesitate犹豫；promise许诺；ignore忽略。故选b。9.c此处是作者的朋友不让他帮助那位老人的几个理由，前后句之间并无明显的转折和因果关系。只是补充说明。故选c。10.d句意为：此外，如果你帮助她，你可能会让我们俩陷入麻烦中并且会为之感到后悔。结合“you may get both of us into trouble”可知，他朋友不让他帮忙，故此处应该是劝阻他。故选d。appreciate欣赏；mind介意；change改变；regret后悔。11.a根据“and then continued to walk ahead”可知“我”朋友很冷漠，没想过要帮助那位老人。故此处应该是他冷淡地说。coldly 冷淡地； cheerfully 高高兴兴地；frequently 频繁地；carefully小心地。故选a。12.b根据作者不断地犹豫想去帮助老人可知他很同情这位可怜的老妇人。 honor 尊敬；pity同情；pride 自豪；joy快乐。feel pity for对感到怜悯，故选b。13.a根据下文的“i cautiously beside the lady，helping her.”可知作者来到老人身边帮助她，所以此处是指开始靠近这位老妇人。approach 靠近；observe 观察；understand 理解；leave离开。故选a。14.b因为老人是在捡散落在人行道上的货物，所以作者想要帮她，应该也是蹲下一起捡。kneel down下跪，跪倒，更能体现出作者的真诚。故选b。15.a根据下一句内容可知作者知道路人肯定以为是他撞翻了老人的车才帮她的，所以此处是指过路人疑惑地注视着他。eye注视；envy嫉妒；admire羡慕；support支持。故选a。16.d如果不是因为“我”撞翻了老人的车才去帮她的话，那路人肯定是以为“我”疯了。grateful 感谢的；great 伟大的；afraid 害怕的；crazy疯狂的。故选d。17.a根据上文的“or that i had knocked over her cart”可知如果是“我”打翻的话，那“我”帮她是出于责任。out of duty出于责任，是固定短语。故选a。18.b根据下文“she also smiled.”可知此处是指“我”向她微笑。help帮助；smile微笑；job工作；suggestion建议。故
