Ⅲ.阅读理解
I had just arrived in this Asian country for a one-year teaching position.One day, I took a subway to visit some ancient palaces and temples in the downtown.What happened to me next on the subway has taught me much about culture difference.
Since all the seats were taken, I stood.Suddenly, I felt someone pulling on my bag.Assuming I probably was in someone's way, I moved over slightly.But in one quick motion, I felt my bag removed from my back, and in a flash, it was gone.I turned around to see who the thief was.I looked at the people standing behind me, but didn't see my bag or anyone suspicious.My heart began to beat wildly and I began to panic.
I looked around, only to find directly across from me was an elderly lady, and sitting on her lap was my bag.I tried to get it back from her lap.But as I began to pull it up, she quickly took it back and held onto it.I looked around at the people standing beside me, and those sitting beside her, but no one took any notice of the situation.Trying not to cause a scene, I tried to negotiate through gestures.I used my hands as much as I could, but she ignored my requests for my bag and pointed to my back.She picked up my bag, showing how heavy it was.I finally began to understand.She was holding my bag to help me.
At the next stop, a middle-aged woman got on the crowded subway.Another elderly woman sitting down took her bag, setting it on her lap.They didn't talk；yet this older woman was more than pleased to sit with this stranger's bag on her lap throughout her journey.
As the subway pulled into the main downtown station and I was getting ready to get off, the woman gently handed me back my bag.But before I had a chance to thank her, she had disappeared into the crowd.

Ⅴ.语法填空
In much of Asia, especially 1. so-called “rice bowl” cultures of China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam, food 2. (eat) with chopsticks in the daily life.
Chopsticks are usually two long, thin pieces of wood or bamboo.They can also be made of plastic, animal bone or metal.Sometimes chopsticks are quite artistic.Truly fine chopsticks might be made of gold and silver with Chinese 3. (character)．Skilled workers also put together various hardwoods and metal 4. (create) special designs.
The Chinese have used chopsticks for five thousand years.People probably cooked their food in large pots, 5. (use) twigs(细枝) to remove it.Over time, 6. the population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces so that it would cook more quickly.Food in small pieces could be picked up easily with twigs which 7. (gradual) turned into chopsticks.
Some people think that the great Chinese scholar Confucius, who 8. (live) from roughly 551 B．C.to 479 B．C., influenced the 9. (develop) of chopsticks.Confucius believed knives would remind people of killings and were too violent for use at the table.Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia.In India, for example, most people traditionally eat 10. their hands.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了筷子的形状和发展历史。
解析：
1．the 考查冠词。句意：在亚洲大部分地区，特别是中国、日本、韩国和越南等所谓的“饭碗文化”，日常生活中都是用筷子吃饭的。分析句子结构可知，此处的“rice bowl” cultures是表特指，所以其前应该用定冠词修饰。故填the。
2．is eaten 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语，所以eat作本句谓语，主语是food，两者间是被动关系，应该用被动语态，描述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，food此处是不可数名词，所以用第三人称单数形式。故填is eaten。
3．characters 考查名词复数。分析句子结构可知，空前Chinese是形容词，所以空处应填名词，character意为“文字”为可数名词，此处应该用复数形式。Chinese characters意为“汉字”。故填characters。
4．to create 考查非谓语动词。句意：熟练的工人还把各种硬木和金属放在一起，创造出特殊的设计。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词put，所以create应该用非谓语形式，它的逻辑主语是workers，两者为主动关系，根据句意可知，此处表目的，作状语，应该用不定式形式。故填to create。
5．using 考查非谓语动词。句意：人们可能在大锅里煮食物，用细枝把食物捞出来。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词cooked，所以use应该用非谓语形式，它的逻辑主语是People，两者间有主动关系，此处描述的做事的方式，作状语，应该用动词-ing形式。故填using。
6．as/when 考查状语从句。句意：随着时间的推移，随着人口的增长，人们开始把食物切成小块，这样可以更快地烹饪。空处引导时间状语从句，表达“随着，当……时”之意，应该用as或者when引导。故填as/when。
7．gradually 考查副词。句意：小块的食物可以很容易地用细枝夹起，细枝逐渐变成了筷子。空处修饰动词短语turned into，作状语，所以应该用副词形式。故填gradually。
8．lived 考查动词时态。句意：一些人认为是伟大的中国学者孔子，大约生活在公元前551年到公元前479年，影响了筷子的发展。分析句子结构可知，空处是非限制性定语从句中的谓语，由时间状语from roughly 551 B．C.to 479 B．C.可知，动作为过去事实，应该用一般过去时。故填lived。
9．development 考查名词。分析句子结构可知，空前是冠词the，所以空处应填名词，develop的名词形式是development，不可数名词。故填development。
10．with 考查介词。句意：例如，在印度，大多数人传统上用手吃饭。分析句子结构可知，空前是动词，空后是名词，所以空处应填介词连接，根据句意可知，表达“借助；使用”之意，所以应用介词with。故填with。

My Favorite Scenic Spot
Mount Tai, one of the famous mountains in China, is located in the central part of Shandong Province.It is known as “the first mountain in the world”．I love it for the following reasons.
First of all, Mount Tai was regarded by the ancients as a “heaven leading directly to the throne” and became a god mountain worshipped by the people and sacrificed by the emperor.In addition, Mount Tai is the symbol of the Chinese nation, the place where the thought of “harmony between man and nature” is based, and the home of the spirit of the Chinese nation.
