the

Cte

Basque

to

the

of

Arles

and

Beziers,it

has

spread

to

where

bullfighting

has

long

been

banned,and

been

embraced

with

such

enthusiasm

that

you’d

think

the

sport

had

been

born

there.”可知,斗牛的傳統(tǒng)已傳播到對這項活動禁止了很長時間的一些城市,也就是說斗牛在法國越來越盛行。ⅠⅡⅢ5.WhatcanweinferaccordingtoJeanMichelMariou?A.Sharedculturescouldbringpeopletogether.B.ThecontinentofEuropeismoreunitedthanever.C.Bullfightingisapopularcultureinmanyregions.D.Regionssharingbullfightingwereseparatedbywars.答案

a

little

different,all

the

B

解析

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中“‘We

explains.But

he

that

some

Marge拒絕在巴黎組織斗牛是出于尊重當(dāng)?shù)貍鹘y(tǒng)的原因。故選B項。ⅠⅡⅢ7.Whatisthebesttitleforthetext?A.FightoverBullfightingB.CultureorViolenceC.BullfightingandTourismD.PassionforBloodandSand答案

A

解析

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段并結(jié)合文章主要說明了對世界上很多地方來說,斗牛一直是伊比利亞獨有的。但如今,法國的部分地區(qū)正在堅持這一傳統(tǒng)。但這因此引發(fā)了一場關(guān)于斗牛運動的論戰(zhàn),文章說明了不同的人對此不同的看法。由此可知,A項“斗牛大戰(zhàn)”最符合作文章標(biāo)題。Ⅱ.完形填空ⅠⅡⅢOnesummernightinaseasidecottage,asmallboywasinbed,soundasleep.Suddenly,hefelthimself
