Every year, hundreds of powwows happen on Native American reservations(美洲原住民居留地) and in other locations across the nation from March through August. Powwows are lively occasions that include tribal dance and dance competitions, drumming, singing, Indian foods, art, crafts, educational events and presentations. Despite the festive atmosphere, powwows are also spiritual occasions that include rituals, blessings, and respectful protocol(礼仪). These are times for Native Americans to strengthen ties of culture, community and tradition, and to celebrate heritage and history. The word “pow-wow” comes from an Algonquin Indian word “pau-wau” or “pauau”, which means tribal spiritual leaders and their religious and healing ceremonies. The ceremonies usually included dancing and rituals, which were sometimes seen by early European explorers. Because they did not understand Indian culture or ceremonies, they thought a “pow-wow”,—their mispronunciation of the Indian word—was any tribal gathering or event. Finally the word became commonly used, even among Native Americans. Now, the word “powwow”and the event itself have come to symbolize the spirit and continuity of Native American cultures and people. Until the 20th century, non-Indians usually did not take part in powwows. But today, powwows are public events and open to all, providing an opportunity for Native Americans to share their 4 culture and traditions. Non-Indians can enjoy the festivities, try new foods such as “Indian fry bread”, purchase beautiful handmade goods like jewelry of silver and turquoise, finely crafted drums and flutes, pottery, painted gourds, and traditional clothing. They can join some events and dances such Round Dance or Blanket Dance. And they can learn about the rich heritage and present day lives of America's first inhabitants. 5.People can take part in powwows except in .( ) A.April B.May C.August D.October 6.According to the passage, what of the following about “powwow” is not true? ( ) A.It is a big event of Native American tribes and individuals. B.It is held only on Native American reservations. C.It is not only a lively occasion but also a spiritual one. D.It is a way for Native Americans to celebrate history. 7.Why does the word “pow-wow” mean tribal event? ( ) A.Because the early explorers don't know the culture and misused. B.Because it is an Algonquin Indian word “pau-wau”. C.Because tribal leaders order people to use the word. D.Because it means the spirit of Native American cultures. 8.What is the purpose of the passage? ( ) A.To introduce the occasion powwows. B.To call on people to take part in powwows. C.To ask people to protect powwows. D.To present the lives of Native Americans. 5 【参考答案】 Ⅰ.[主旨大意]这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己一次让人尴尬的经历。刚刚在饭店做服务员时,有一天饭店 客人很多,作者感到有点应付不了。但是这时她突然发现了一个托盘架,这个托盘架给了她很大帮助,让她做起 事来得心应手,她甚至感到自己天生就是做这工作的人。但是正当她得意时却被人提醒她用的是别人的助步器。 1.C 考查动词辨析。A.许诺;B.邀请;C.允许;D.建议。前句提到跟随一位有经验的服务员干了几天,所以应该 是允许自己独自为顾客服务了。所以正确答案是 C。 2.A 考查副词辨析。A.好地,顺利地;B.迅速;C.安全地;D.错误地。从下文的叙述可知在周末出了一点小状况, 所以推测第一周应该“一切都很顺利。”所以 A 选项正确。All went well that first week。 3.B 考查动词辨析。 A.离开;B.给;C.带来;D.展示。由句意可知“我”有幸被给机会在离厨房不远的一张桌 子边服务。所以应用 given,其他动词不合语境。 4.B 考查副词辨析。A.因此;B.然而;C.否则;D.最后。前句话说“我”负责的桌子离厨房不远,而下句“I still felt a little hard”可知尽管给了“我”这样一个机会,但“我”仍感到有点吃力,前后句是转折关 系,故用 however。 5.C 考查名词辨析。A.厨房;B.街道;C.饭店;D.桌子。故事讲述作者在饭店里当服务员时的一次经历,自然是 饭店挤满了顾客, 所以 C 选项正确。 6.A 考查动词辨析。A.介意,留意;B.改变;C.带走;D.挽救。前文提到饭店里挤满了顾客,而且作者又是新手, 从情理推测作者应该是慢慢移动步子,所以用“留意,当心”每一步。 所以 A 选项正确。 7.B 考查动词辨析。A.修理;B.训练;C.带领;D.等候。从常识可知新员工在正式上岗前要经过学习培训,所以 答案应为 B 选项。 8.D 考查形容词辨析。A.更慢;B.更轻;C.更安静;D.更容易。从前句话中的 handles 可以推测这个作者认为 的“托盘架”应该是很容易转动,故选 D 项。 9.C 考查动词辨析。A.让;B.制作;C.观看;D.吃喝。从词的用法判断,make/let/have sb. do sth.意思为“让 某人做某事”;而 watch sb. do sth.意思为“看着某人做某事”,从语境判断 C 选项正确。 10.A 考查形容词辨析。A.有用的;B.类似的;C.不寻常的;D.有趣的。从上文可知作者有了这个“托盘架”的 帮助,做起工作很轻松,所以这个“托盘架”对于作者是有用的。A 选项正确。 11.D 考查动词辨析。 A.休息;B.命令;C.吃;D.离开。从语境可知顾客就餐后,应该是要离开了。 12.B 考查名词辨析。A.包;B.助步器; C 托盘;D.大衣。从下文 I had set my trays on his wife's orthopedic walker.可知作者认为的托盘架是老人的助步器,所以 B 选项正确。 13.C 考查名词辨析。A.主意;B.赞赏;C.信息;D.需要。从后句话“What was he talking about!” Then I got it.中的 then 可以判断作者开始没有明白他的意思,后来才明白了。故正确答案为选项 C。 14.B 考查动词辨析。A.说谎;B.隐藏;C.防御;D.停留。从该句前部分 I wanted to get into a hole 可知自 6 己当时因尴尬而真想找个洞藏起来,故选 B 项。 15.A 考查形容词辨析。A.仔细的;B.耐心的;C.诚实的;D.活泼的。从作者所描述的内容可知,她的那次失误 是因为自己不仔细造成的,所以她要从错误中吸取教训,认真做事,不要对自己太自信。故选 A。 Ⅱ.Passage 1 [主旨大意]本文是一篇记叙文。文章描述的是两个陌生人来到一个睡觉不让打鼾的村子过夜 的经过。第二天两个人离开时因为想得到更多的钱而争吵。 1.A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The leader said they could stay in the house for strangers.
