1.[A]词义推断题。解答本题的关键首先要理解repulsive前面的it是指上一句的octopus,由Ontheotherhand可知第2句和第3句描述的是人们对章鱼作为食物的两种相反的反应,而与agreatdelicacy相反的是A,故A为正确答案。
2.[B]推理判断题。在第2段中查找到作者有一天在阵雨后散步发现蜗牛爬在他那些prizeplants上面,所以才突然有了去抓蜗牛的冲动。理解prize在此意为“一流的,珍视的”,便可知作者当时很生气,由此可确定答案为B。
3.[C]事实细节题。本题考査复合句的理解。第2段第1句“Nocreature...more...thansnails”表达的是最高级概念,即:Snailshavereceivedmostpraiseandabuse由此可知,蜗牛是最具争议性的食物,因此C就是该句的近义替换。作者没有把蜗牛与章鱼或炸土豆作比较,因此A和D不对;文中提到在朋友的居住地,蜗牛是没人瞧得上的,但没有提到在作者的家乡是否受欢迎,因此B也不对。
4.[A]主旨大意题。文章第1句话其实是全文的主题句,说明人们对于选择吃什么、不吃什么是没有什么章法的,暗示了人们在饮食方面有大相径庭的喜好,接着用了数个具体例子说明,并着重以蜗牛为例,阐明这种差异。英语习语“Oneman’smeatisanotherman’spoison”形象地表达了这一观点。本题最具干扰性的是B,文章在第1段谈到饮食有差异,这涉及到了culture,但作者并没花太多笔墨描述各国不同的文化,因此,culture并非本文的中心。另外,D的表达与文章第1句很相似,但是D说的是人们在美食面前会丧失理智,与第1句的意思其实相差甚远,且并非文章要阐明的主题。
5.[B]推理判断题。本题考查表语从句的理解。从第1段的最后一句中“mostofushavebeenbroughtuptoeatcertainfoods”可推断B为不同的人喜好不同食物的最主要原因。A最具干扰性,它也是原因之一,但住在同一个地方的人也会有不同的饮食差异,所以还是因为家庭的原因所造成的。
