题目解答

答案

这是一道完形填空题,文章讲述的是土豆(potato)在世界范围内的传播历史及其受欢迎程度的变化。我们需要根据上下文逻辑和语法搭配,选择最合适的词语填入空白处。

我们逐句分析并填空:

1. You can't ____ how potatoes are popular today.

句意:你无法______土豆今天有多受欢迎。

这里需要一个动词,表达“想象”或“估计”的意思。常见搭配是 “can't imagine”(无法想象)。

✅ 正确答案:imagine

2. It is hard to believe that it has only been ____ as food by most of the Western world for the past 200 years.

句意:很难相信,大多数西方世界仅仅在过去200年里才开始______它作为食物。

这里需要一个动词的过去分词,与“has been”构成现在完成时的被动语态。意思是“被当作食物使用”。“regarded as” 是固定搭配,表示“被视为……”。

✅ 正确答案:regarded

3. Potatoes were ____ to Europe in the second half of the 16th century by the ____.

句意:土豆是在16世纪下半叶由____ ______到欧洲的。

第一个空是动词的过去分词,表示“被带到”。常见动词是 “brought”(带来)或 “introduced”(引入)。根据历史事实,土豆是由西班牙人从美洲带回欧洲的,所以“introduced”更贴切,强调“引入新事物”。

第二个空是“by the ____”,表示“被……(人)”。根据历史,是西班牙殖民者把土豆带回欧洲。

✅ 第三个空:introduced
✅ 第四个空:Spanish

4. But they did not want to eat this strange vegetable because they feared that it was ____ in the leaves, which would make them ill.

句意:但他们不想吃这种奇怪的蔬菜,因为他们担心叶子中含有____,会让他们生病。

土豆的叶子含有毒素,尤其是龙葵素(solanine),所以人们害怕有毒。

空格需要一个名词,表示“毒”或“毒素”。

✅ 正确答案:poison

5. In fact, nobody but the Irish were willing to eat this ____ vegetable.

句意:事实上,除了爱尔兰人,没人愿意吃这种______蔬菜。

前文提到土豆是“strange vegetable”,而且人们害怕它有毒,所以这里应填一个表示“奇怪、陌生”或“令人怀疑”的形容词。

前面用过“strange”,但这里可以换一个近义词,如 “unfamiliar” 或 “mysterious”。但结合上下文,“strange” 最合适,且符合语言习惯。

但注意:第4空前用了“strange”,这里可能换词。不过,文章允许重复使用。更可能的是 “unknown” 或 “foreign”。

但最自然的是 “strange” 或 “unfamiliar”。考虑到语境,strange 依然合适。

不过,更准确的是强调它不被接受,所以 unfamiliar 或 foreign 也可以。但结合选项逻辑,strange 是最直接的。

但再看:前文已说“this strange vegetable”,这里重复使用可能不理想。但语法上没问题。

另一个可能是 poisonous,但前文说“fear it was poisonous”,实际不是整株有毒,只是叶子。所以“poisonous vegetable”不准确。

最合理的词是 strange 或 unfamiliar。但根据常见表达,strange 更自然。

✅ 正确答案:strange

6. They found many ____ of planting potatoes, for example, they grew well in their climate, and needed little work.

句意:他们发现了许多种植土豆的____,例如,它适合他们的气候,而且需要很少劳作。

这里需要一个名词,表示“优点”或“好处”。“many” 后接可数名词复数。

“advantages” 或 “benefits” 都合适。

✅ 正确答案:advantages

7. When potatoes first arrived in Germany, people there preferred to die ____ eat them.

句意:当土豆刚到德国时,那里的人宁愿死也不愿吃它们。

“prefer to die rather than do something” 是固定表达,意思是“宁可死也不做某事”。

结构是:prefer to die rather than + 动词原形

✅ 正确答案:rather than

8. In 1774, King Frederick ordered people to plant potatoes to save their lives, and threatened to ____ the nose of anyone who didn't obey this.

句意:1774年,腓特烈国王命令人们种植土豆以挽救生命,并威胁要______任何不服从者的鼻子。

这里需要一个动词,表示“割掉”或“切除”。常见动词是 “cut off”。

但空格只有一个词,所以可能是 “cut”?但“cut the nose” 不如 “cut off” 完整。

但题目只给一个空,所以必须是一个动词,能搭配“the nose”。

历史典故中,腓特烈大帝确实用强制手段推广土豆,但“割鼻子”可能是夸张说法。

最合适的动词是 cut,但更可能是 cut off。但空格只允许一个词。

另一个可能是 remove,但不够生动。

最可能的是 cut,虽然不完整,但在语境中可接受。

但更符合历史表达的是 cut off,但只能填一个词。

再看:cut 是最直接的。

但也有说法是“punish by cutting nose”,所以 cut 可行。

✅ 正确答案:cut

(注:虽然“cut off”更准确,但题目只允许一个词,所以填“cut”)

9. Today, German eat more potatoes than people in any other countries.

这句没有空,是陈述句,但注意:German 应为 Germans(德国人),但题目无空,不需改。

10. Among the potato ____, French fries are popular all over the world...

句意:在各种土豆______中,炸薯条风靡全球。

这里需要一个名词,表示“食品”或“制品”、“菜肴”。常见词是 “dishes” 或 “products”。

“potato dishes” 指“土豆类菜肴”,最符合语境。

✅ 正确答案:dishes

综合所有答案:

  1. imagine
  2. regarded
  3. introduced
  4. Spanish
  5. poison
  6. strange
  7. advantages
  8. rather than
  9. cut
  10. dishes

完整填空后文章(中文翻译帮助理解):

你无法想象土豆今天有多受欢迎。它们是世界第四大粮食作物,仅次于玉米、小麦和大米。在过去并非如此。很难相信,大多数西方世界仅仅在过去200年里才开始将其视为食物。七千年前土豆生长于南美洲,而它们在其他地方流行起来只是两百年前的事。在16世纪下半叶,土豆由西班牙人引入欧洲。但他们不想吃这种奇怪的蔬菜,因为他们担心叶子中含有毒素,会让他们生病。事实上,只有爱尔兰人愿意吃这种奇怪的蔬菜。他们发现了种植土豆的许多优点,例如,土豆很适合他们的气候,而且需要很少劳作。当土豆刚到德国时,那里的人宁愿死也不愿吃它们。1774年,腓特烈国王下令人们种植土豆以挽救生命,并威胁要割掉任何不服从者的鼻子。如今,德国人吃的土豆比任何其他国家的人都多。在各种土豆菜肴中,炸薯条风靡全球,在典型的美式快餐店中随处可见。

最终答案:

  1. imagine
  2. regarded
  3. introduced
  4. Spanish
  5. poison
  6. strange
  7. advantages
  8. rather than
  9. cut
  10. dishes

\boxed{
\begin{array}{l}1. \text{imagine} \\2. \text{regarded} \\3. \text{introduced} \\4. \text{Spanish} \\5. \text{poison} \\6. \text{strange} \\7. \text{advantages} \\8. \text{rather than} \\9. \text{cut} \\10. \text{dishes}\end{array}

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

  • The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

  • question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
