【解析】

短文大意：本文關(guān)注的是社會文化，講述了一個英國女孩在中國學習期間所遭遇的（禮儀）文化困境。

【1】句意：在大多數(shù)文化中，當人們見面時，他們通�；ハ鄦柡颉�

each other互相；one by one逐個地；one another互相。greet問候；根據(jù)句意可知，greet each other（互相問候）符合句意，故選A。

【2】句意：她對中國文化知之甚少。

little少的，表否定；lot許多的；much許多的，修飾不可數(shù)名詞。根據(jù)下文的原因“because she first arrived因為她是第一次來”，可知對中國文化了解很少，故選A。

【3】句意：一天在上學的路上，她去銀行取了一些錢。

magazine雜志；money錢；newspaper報紙。根據(jù)“she went to a bank她去銀行”，可知是去取錢，故選B。

【4】句意：令她吃驚的是，銀行職員問她是否吃過午飯。

how如何，問方式；if是否，表疑問；when什么時候，問時間。根據(jù)下文“So she quickly answered that she had already eaten所以她很快回答說她已經(jīng)吃過了”，可知問她是否吃過午飯，故選B。

【5】句意：所以她很快回答說她已經(jīng)吃過了。

hardly幾乎不，表否定；nearly差不多；quickly快速地。answer回答，根據(jù)句意語境，可知AB兩項不合句意，故選C。

【6】句意：在那之后，她繼續(xù)去學校。

After在……之后；before在……之前；during在……期間。根據(jù)下文“she went on to the school她繼續(xù)去了學校”，可知是在去銀行以后，故選A。

【7】句意：現(xiàn)在她明白了，這不可能是邀請。

couldn't不能，指沒有能力或推測；needn't無需，指沒有必要；wouldn't能不能，用于客氣的請求。根據(jù)“Now she understood”，結(jié)合上文兩次被問及同一問題，可知她猜測不是邀請吃午餐，后面兩項不合語境，故選A。

【8】句意：她不明白他們?yōu)槭裁磫栠@個問題。

how怎樣，表方式；whether是否，表疑問；why為什么，表原因。puzzle疑惑，根據(jù)后文“so she spent many hours try to find out why so many people kept asking this” 所以她花了很多時間試圖找出為什么這么多人一直問這個問題，可知她想知道人們這樣問的原因，故選C。

【9】句意：所以她花了很多時間試圖找出為什么這么多人一直問這個問題。

cost價值，主語需是物；pay支付，賓語需是錢；spend花費（時間或金錢），主語需是人。本句主語she是人，根據(jù)賓語“many hours很多時間”，可知spend符合句意，故選C。

【10】句意：她當時很瘦，她想他們一定是擔心她吃得不好。

fat胖的；thin瘦的；tall高的。根據(jù)下文“she thought they must be worrying that she was not eating well她想他們一定是擔心她吃得不好”，可知她看上去很瘦，故選B。

完形填空。主要題型有（1）考查詞義辨析：名詞辨析，形容詞副詞辨析，冠詞辨析，介詞連詞辨析等；（2）考查句子時態(tài)，語態(tài)，要根據(jù)語境，選擇正確的時態(tài)和語態(tài)的選項；（3）考查從句（賓語從句，定語從句，主語從句等）；（4）根據(jù)固定句型或短語結(jié)合語境選擇正確的選項。

本文講述了一個英國女孩在中國學習期間所遭遇的文化困境,主要考查單詞或短語辨析，做此類型題時，要知道每一個詞的意義，然后結(jié)合上下文背景語境，選擇適合語境的選項。例如小題3，三個選項都是形容詞：magazine雜志；money錢；newspaper報紙。根據(jù)“she went to a bank她去銀行”可知，to get some money（去取錢）符合句意，故選B。
