求2015年英语中考模拟试题汇编第3,4页的阅读翻译.
On February 3rd,1949,New York Harbor(港) was an exciting place.Many people were
there to greet a ship from France.On the ship were 49 French railroad
boxcars(火车车厢) filled with gifts from the people of France to the people of
America.These boxcars were from the famous Merci Train (Merci,a French word
meaning "thank you").
After world War Ⅱ(二战),a lot of factories,roads and farms in France had been
destroyed.Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and
little to eat.In the winter of 1947,a train was sent across the United
States,stopping in cities and towns along the way.At every stop,people gave
whatever they could.Factories gave clothing and medicine.Farmers gave
food.Families gave money.Even school children gave away their pocket
money(零用钱).All the things were then taken to France by ship.
By 1949,the French had begun to recover(恢复) from the war.The Merci Train
was their way of saying "thank you" to America.French people had filled the
boxcars with gifts.Most of them were personal,like hand-made toys,children's
drawings,or postcards.But the boxcars themselves were perhaps the most
meaningful of the gifts.On each car,the French people had painted the pictures
of all their 40 provinces,with an American eagle on the front.The boxcars were
taken to each state of America,where they were warmly greeted.
Now many of the states still keep their boxcars.Gifts sent by the French
people can still be seen in some museums.The Merci Train came out of the war,but
it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace(和平).

(五)社会万象
在中考阅读理解中,本话题包括的题材很多,它们来自生活,来自社会,针对这些题材要求抓住关键的句子和一些与考查内容有关的问题所在,这样便于我们解题时“顺藤摸瓜”,找出问题的答案.这种题型一般是对文章理解能力的考查,抓住文章的关键句和关键词是非常重要的.
解题思路：看清题干,明确把握问题指向,带着问题读文章,避免“回视”现象,提高做题的速度,提高解题质量.
例如：
In most cultures,when you meet people you know for the first time during a
day,it is usual to greet them.Once a young woman from England went to Hong Kong
to work.When she first arrived,she knew little about the Chinese culture of
language.On her way to school one day,she went to a bank to get some money.To
her surprise,the bank clerk asked her if she had had her lunch.She was surprised
at such a question because in the British culture it would mean an invitation to
lunch.Between unmarried young people it can also mean the young man's interest
in dating the girl.Since this bank clerk was a stranger to the British woman,she
was very puzzled,and quickly answered that she had eaten already.After this she
went on to school and was even more surprised when one of the teachers asked her
the same question.
By now she understood that it could not be an invitation but was puzzled as
to why they asked it.In the following days she was asked the same question again
and again and she spent many hours trying to work out why so many people kept
asking her this.At last she thought that these people must be concerned
about(关心) her health.She was rather thin at the time,and she thought they must
be worrying that she was not eating well!
In fact the question like that has no real meaning at all — it is only a
greeting.
根据短文内容,判断句子的正误,正确的在括号内写“T”,错误的写“F”.
( ) 1.The young British woman went to Hong Kong for work.
( ) 2.The British woman went to the bank to get some money.
( ) 3.The bank clerk invited the young British woman to lunch.
( ) 4.The teacher's question made the British woman happy.
( ) 5.In fact the young British woman didn't know much about Chinese
culture.
答案解析
1.T 根据“Once a young woman from England...”可知这年轻英国妇女是来香港工作的,故此句表述是正确的.
2.T 根据“...she went to a bank to get some money.”可知此句表述是正确的.
3.F 通过本文最后一句我们可以了解到,在中国问别人“吃了吗”是表问候,而不一定是真正的想请人吃饭.故此句的错误的.
4.F 根据“After this she went on to school and was even more
surprised...”可知此句表述是错误的.
5.T 根据文章内容我们知道,这位英国妇女对中国文化不是很了解,所以对“if she had had her lunch”产生困惑.
当然,中考英语阅读理解题的材料远不止这些种类,但只要运用了上面的基本的解题技巧,也能把这个题型做得很好.

pleasant job.The bank manager told me my future was good."
"Then why do you want to leave?" I asked.
