课时跟踪检测（一） Introduction & Reading Pre-reading阅读理解AAmerica is a mobile society.Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change.Neither side feels hurt by this.Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more.If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship.This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life.They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time.This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous_with_our_time.Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at the airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend.We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends.The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine.They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus.And they expect that we will phone them from there.Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters.So accept their hospitality at home!语篇解读：文章主要介绍了美国人和中国人对待友谊、朋友的不同观点和做法。1The writer of this passage must be a(n)_AAmericanBChineseCprofessorDstudent解析：选B细节理解题。从第一段 “This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand .” 可知本文的作者是一名中国人。2The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “_”Astrict with time Bserious with timeCcareful with timeDwilling to spend time解析：选D推理判断题。从下文 “.we, as hosts, will appear at the airport .to our foreign friends.”可推知。3A suitable title for this passage would probably be “_”AFriendships between ChineseBFriendships between AmericansCAmericans hospitalityDAmericans and Chineses views of friendships解析：选D标题归纳题。文章主要讲美国人和中国人对待友情的不同观点。BYour friend might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away.Life has changed for millions of children across the world who now make friends online.Whether you use chatrooms (聊天室), QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are part of virtual community (虚拟社会)“I seldom talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ，” said Foxs Shadow, the online nickname used by a Senior 2 girl in China.“Eighty percent of my classmates use QQ after school.”QQ is the biggest messaging service in China.Four million people used it one Saturday night in October, according to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.And Foxs Shadow might well have been one of them.“I log_in on Friday nights, and Saturdays or Sundays when I feel bored.I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week，”she said, “But I hardly talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online.“You dont know who you are talking to.You should always be careful about who you trust online.”Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to know someone very well.Foxs Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face.It was a girl who was a comic (喜剧) fan like herself and they went to a comic show together.A 16yearold Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users.“I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking about useless things，” he said.Now he chats online in English, using MSN.“I only chat online because Ive got friends in Japan, the USA and Singapore，” he said, “I want to learn more about foreign cultures.” But he spends little time chatting as he sees it as a waste of time and money.“If you are really addicted (沉迷) to it, sometimes you cant listen carefully in class，” he said, “And the friends in your real life are always more important than those socalled friends you meet online.”语篇解读：本文主要是围绕着网上聊天交友展开的。4How many messaging services have been mentioned in the passage?A2.B3.C4.D5.解析：选C细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可知， 本文提到了四种信息服务方式：chatrooms, QQ, MSN和ICQ。5Whats the meaning of the phrase “log in” in the fourth paragraph?ATake off.
