3.根据下列内容,回答206-210题。 When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, webrought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules isthat young people should always respect eiders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrass-ment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving foodto a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told herthat I had made sure they got their food quickly because ! always respect the elderly. As soon as Isaid that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, tookme aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive Americans are and how they dislike thedescription "old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heardmy reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventyor eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Youngpeople always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows thata person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep them-selves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping tolook young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry be-cause this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn'twant to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don't respect themany more; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words. By Jack Jack brought the couple their food very fast because___________.A.the manager asked him to do so B.he respected the elderly C.the couple wanted him to do so D.he wanted more pay

    答案:A
    解析:
    词汇辨析题。[A]receding;衰退;[B]recovering恢复;[C]relieving减轻;[D]retinng退休。该句the West seemed to be 11与上文emerging markets形成对比,与emerging“新兴的”相对立的自然是receding“衰退的”;且下文的rich countries...decline.the decreases in American and Britain等信息也暗示我们:发达国家出现了退化。综上本题选择[A]。

    答案:A

    逻辑关系题。本题选项中,[B]So和[D]Thus意思相同,都强调因果逻辑,故可以同时排除。剩余[A]But表示转折,(C)Indeed表示递进。上句的modest decline“适度下降”与该句huge improvements“巨大进步”是明显的反义信息,上下文出现反义信息,逻辑必为转折,故本题选择[A]。

    A.test
    B.vote
    C.rate
    D.mark

    答案:C
    解析:
    词汇辨析题。[A]test测试;[B]vote投票;[C]rate评价,评估;[D]mark做记号,打分。填入该空的词要与下文life satisfaction“生活满意度”形成搭配,[B][D]两项容易排除。而[A]的主体更多是“调查、研究人员”等。本空“评价、评估生活满意度”与句意最搭,故本题选择[c]。
