第一篇：高考英語習(xí)俗閱讀理解及答案

An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal.If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him.You may say something like this, “I’m afraid it’ll have to be some place cheap, as I have very little money.” The other person may say, “OK, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s.” This means that two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself.He may also say, “Oh, no.I want to take you to lunch at Johnson’s”, or “I want you to try the steak(牛排)there.It’s great.” This means the person wants to pay for both of you.If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal.You may just say, “Thank you.That would be very nice.” American customs about who pays for dates(約會)are much the same as in other parts of the world.In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals.But, today, a university girl or a woman in the business world will usually pay her own way during the day.If a man asks her to dinner or a dance outside the working hours, it means “come as my guest”.So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.1.In the old days _______ often paid for all the meals.A.women

B.men

C.university students

D.businessmen

2.“To go Dutch” means to _______.A.go to play outside

The fiddler crab(蟹)is a living clock.It indicates(=shows)the time of day by the colour of its skin, which is dark by day and pale by night.The crab’s changing colour follows a regular twenty—four hour plan that exactly matches the daily rhythm(節(jié)奏)of the sun.Does the crab actually keep time, or does its skin simply answer to the sun’s rays, changing colour according to the amount of light strikes it? To find out, biologists kept crabs in a dark room for two months.Even without daylight, the crab’s skin colour continued to change exactly on time.This characteristic(特性)probably developed gradually in answer to the daily rising and setting of the sun, to help protect the crab from sunlight and enemies.After millions of years it has become completely regulated(受控制)inside the living body of the crab.The biologists noticed that once each day the colour of the fiddler crab is especially dark, and that each day this happens fifty minutes later than on the day before.From this they discovered that each crab follows not only the rhythm of the sun but also that of the tides(潮水).The crab’s period of greatest darkening is exactly the time of low tide on the beach where it was cought!

1.The fiddler crab is like a clock because it changes colour ______.A in a regular 24—hour rhythm B.in answer to the sun’s rays

C.at low tide D.every fifty minutes
