In Japan, people use landmarks
9、(地标)in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travellers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually ma
10、ny landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.
11、”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh, ” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles is it?” They dont know.Its true that a person doesn

They measure distance in time, not miles.”可知,洛杉矶的人没有地图上的距离概念,他们用时间而不是距离来衡量距离。故选 B 项。3C 细节理解题。根据最后一段
22、 “People in Yucatan believe thatI dont know is impolite.

23、意:在我回广州之前。表示“在回广州之前” ,故填 before。3how 考查疑问副词。句意:这里表示怎样到达那里 ,所以填 how。4attractions 考查名词。句意:我拿出我的旅行手册,里面有很多关于这座城市的著名旅游景点并开始阅读。表示“旅游景点” ,应该说 tourist attractions。故填 attractions。5who/that 考查定语从句的连接词。句意:那时,一位迷人的年轻女士注意到我的书,于是朝我走来。这里含有一个定语从句,关系词在从句中作主语,指人,故填who/that。6herself 考查反身代词。根据句意“介绍她自己” ,可知填 herself。7a
24、round 考查介词。句意:她友好地提议带着我四处转转这座城市。show sb around 是固定短语,意思是“带某人到处转转” 。故填 around。8go/should go 考查虚拟语气。这里含有一个宾语从句,表示“建议,要求,命令”后的宾语从句中用“should 动词原形” ,should 可以省略。故填 (should) go。9Since/As 考查连词。句意:因为桥坏了,难道她希望我跳过去吗?这里表示“因为,由于” ,故填 since/as。10closed 考查动词的时态。句意:这绝对不是一个吸引人的主意,所以我礼貌地拒绝了她的邀请,合上我的书就走了。由于下文 walk 用的是一般过去时,这里时态也应该保持一致。故填 closed。
