參考答案：BADGE本文是說明文。文章講的是非洲的一些部落，他們喜歡在身上和臉上涂一些顏色，不同的顏色代表著不同的含義。【16題詳解】與上文的順承，Somemarksareusedtoidentifypeopleaspartofagroup，句意為：一些標(biāo)記被用來鑒別作為族人的一部分身份，故下文應(yīng)是另一部分標(biāo)記是用在某些儀式上，比如說婚禮和戰(zhàn)爭的時候。與some相對應(yīng)的others故選B。【17題詳解】與下文的銜接。theyparticipateinaspecialceremonyinwhichtheypainttheirheadsandfacesred.他們參加一些特殊的儀式，在這種儀式上他們頭和臉涂上了紅色。本自然段講述了紅色的意義，故答案應(yīng)為A。【18題詳解】對下文的理解。Toshowthathehaskilledalion,amanwillpainthisbodywithanaturalwhitematerial,makingspecialmarkstorepresentthisaccomplishment.為了顯示，他已經(jīng)殺死了一頭獅子，一個男士將把他涂成白色，使得這種特殊的標(biāo)記來顯示他們的成就。所以答案應(yīng)為D，意為，是用獨特的方式來顯示他的勇敢。【19題詳解】上下文的銜接。Themenpainttheirfacesyellowandred.把他們的臉涂上黃色和紅色，與下文接著再加上黑白相間的圓，在眼的附近和嘴唇上涂上黑色相照應(yīng)，故選G?！?0題詳解】在眼的附近和嘴唇上涂上黑色與他們的眼睛和牙齒的白色形成對比，顯示他們更加帥氣，目的是吸引自己的另一半，也就是說，這個時候女士才能決定她們最喜歡哪一個。故選E。
