◆ 活学活用

阅读下列短文,按要求完成读写任务

I was born and raised in France into this way of life:French women don't get fat.There is a very good reason for that.Among the French middle and professional classes,it is totally unacceptable for a woman to be fat.Little girls,from a very young age,learn not to eat too much.It is mainly a class thing.When I read that “French women love to shop and prepare food”,I laugh.Many of us who work and have a family would rather put our feet up with a good book.To describe France as the country of slender women is a lie.A quick trip to Calais or any town of the industrial north is guaranteed to be an eye-opener.

Yes,at 44,I am still amazingly slim.This is hardly surprising;apart from the time when I was pregnant,I think I have been underweight for most of my life.There is no glory in this,since the truth must be said:I eat very little,not out of force,but mostly out of habit.

Yes,I like shopping and cooking like a traditional Frenchwoman,but I don't think this is something you can easily pass on to British women.I tend to go to local shops every day and this is not something people are used to doing here,mainly because it takes a lot of time.I can afford to do so,since I work only on a part-time basis.

Of course,I still enjoy a good meal at a (French) restaurant,and I will have a glass of wine at dinner,but only one glass,since drinking other than one with food is a social taboo for women in France.To be seen drunk for a woman is a social embarrassment from which she is not likely to recover.

Dear British friends,do not believe that patronizing myth about French women.The thing is that many of us French women are probably unaware of how little we eat,simply because it has become second nature.

1.解析:此处stay connected with sb.“与某人保持联系”。friendly“友好的”;close “亲近的”;natural“自然的”。

2.解析:前句说到手机是人们的交流工具,后一句就提出了它的劣势,因此根据该空的逻辑关系可以判断出前后为转折关系。However“然而”,与语境相符。

答案:B

3.解析:根据句意和常识理解,手机虽然是人们必不可少的交流手段,但是某些时候手机也是应该限制使用的。certain times“某些时候”。该空所在的这句话就是引出下文。

答案:C

12.解析:通过本段中所讲内容可以推断出,孩子们更热衷于用手机取得联系或是被联系,因此作者认为对孩子们来说“用手机随时联系的欲望比上课的欲望更强烈。”其余几项均与语境不符。

答案:B

13.解析:根据上下文的行文逻辑判断,作者再次利用反问的形式进行了语气上的强调表明自己的态度。句意为:“似乎在课上发条短信是很简单的事情,不会伤害别人,是吗?”

答案:C

答案:A

15.解析:come on“加油,过来”;go on“进行,进展”;go through“通过”;come by“过去”。由语境知选C项。

Not only that, many cities are already full of traffic, and many country areas have rough roads. So 1 do people travel those distances that are too far to walk? They use public transportation. If you ride the subway or bus 2 you live, you can appreciate some of the benefits of public transportation.
