37、积累英美地理及文化知识。Puerto Rico(波多黎各)是美国在加勒比海地区的自治联邦岛，16 世纪成为西班牙殖民地，1898 年荚西战争后被割让给美国，1952 年宣布为联邦，自 20世纪 60年代起通过各种全民投票保持了其联邦地位。 圣胡安是其首都和最大城市。2.Whats the character of Puerto Rico?（分数：1.00）A.Either new or old.B.Mixture of different people. C.Too many fast food restaurants.D.Either Spanish or American.解析：推理题。问
38、题是关于波多黎各城市特征的。各段中都出现有如“a mixture of the new and the old”“a mixture of both Spanish and American rhythms(节奏)”等表融合意义的意群。因此可推断B正确。而 C选项本身说法没有错，但是作为突出城市特点的答案意义不完整。A、D 为错误选项，可直接排除。3.What is the best title for the passage?（分数：1.00）A.Puerto Rico Maintains Formal Spanish InfluencesB.Puerto Rico Is a Mixture
39、 of the New and the OldC.Mixture City in America D.The General Geography and Population in Puerto Rico解析：主旨题。通读全文，A、B、D 选项均体现文章的细节，只有 C选项具有概括意义。因此选择 C。4.According to the passage, old volcanic mountains lie _ .（分数：1.00）A.in the center of the country B.on a coastal plainC.near the Cordillera CentralD.
40、in the north of the country解析：细节题。采用大写字母定位，回文中找到第二段第一句，即是答案。5.The underlined word “hospitable“ in the last sentence means “ _ “.（分数：1.00）A.impolite to visitorsB.welcoming to visitors C.tired of visitorsD.impatient to a patient解析：词义题。此类题型一定要根据上下文或前后句判断。因 and前后连接的是并列成分，意思相近，因此由 friendly 一词可知 B项正确。三、Pa

42、 informationB.gathered from other sources than from its inhabitantsC.gained from the arguments about the countryD.different from what one had before the travel 解析：细节题。第二段最后两句提到：“And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be from the secondhand information gathered fro
43、m other sources!How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different people from ourselves are not very different after all!”可见，一个人在旅游之前掌握的信息与旅游之后了解的实际情况有很大出入。因此答案 D符合题意。8.One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will _ .（分数：1.00）A.find out what its people a
44、re likeB.argue in favor of this country and the languageC.know the country and its people better D.like its inhabitants and their language解析：细节题。解题的关键是第二段第二句：“It is only by traveling in or living in a country and getting to know its inhabitants and their language that one can find out what a country
45、 and its people are really like”因此答案 C符合题意。9.Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are _ .（分数：1.00）A.distortedB.normalC.similar to each otherD.different from its own 解析：细节题。解题关键是第一段首句：“Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to pr
