A PG13 film may go beyond the PG rating in theme, violence, nudity (裸露), language, adult activities or other elements, but does not reach the restricted R category. The theme of the film by itself will not result in a rating greater than PG13, although activities shown in the film related to a mature theme may result in a restricted rating for the film. Any drug use will initially require at least a PG13 rating. More than brief nudity will require at least a PG13 rating, but such nudity in PG13 rated film generally will not be sexually oriented. There may be violence scene in a PG13 movie, but generally not both realistic and extreme or persistent violence. A single use of one of the rude words in a film, though only as an expletive (感嘆語), initially requires at least a PG13 rating. More than one such bad word requires an R rating, as must even one of those words used in a sexual context. The Rating Board nevertheless may rate such a film PG13 if, based on a special vote by a twothirds majority, the Raters feel that most American parents would believe that a PG13 rating is appropriate because of the context or manner in which the words are used or because the use of those words in the film is easily neglected.（1）What is the main goal of this passage? discuss various movie ratings. explain various movie ratings. explain the difference between PG13 and R movie ratings. explain the PG13 movie rating.（2）According to PG13 rating, the theme of the movie __________. little impact on its rating a large impact on its rating be entertaining be suitable for children（3）From Paragraph 2, we can learn that drug usage __________. not be allowed in movies dangerous a PG13 rating necessary not appropriate for children under 13（4）What does a movie with two or more uses of bad words require?

Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑的)in Japan because most streets there don39。t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks(地標(biāo))in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop. In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure distance in time, not miles. How far away is the post office? you ask. Oh, they answer, it39。s about five minutes from here. You say, Yes, but how many miles is it? They don39。t know. It39。s true that a person doesn39。t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, Sorry, I have no idea. But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers I don39。t know. People in Yucatan believe that I don39。t know is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!（1）When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually _______. the place carefully him a map of the place him the names of the streets to recognizable buildings and places（2）What is the place where people measure distance in time?

Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）C（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，作者圍繞不同國家回答問路的風(fēng)格，介紹了不同國度的不同文化。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Foreign tourists are often confused（困惑的）in Japan because most streets there don39。t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks（地標(biāo)）in their directions instead of street names.”可知在日本通常是用地標(biāo)指路。故選D。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map。 they measure distance in time, not miles.”可知，在洛杉磯用走一段路用多少時間來指路。故選B。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers‘I don39。t know.’People in Yucatan believe that ‘I don39。t know’ is impolite.”可推斷，因尤卡坦人可能會給游客一個錯誤的答案的目的是為了禮貌。故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“I find out different ‘styles’ of directions every time I ask ‘How can I get to the post office?’ 以及下文舉例說明可知，作者圍繞回答問路的風(fēng)格，介紹了不同國度的不同文化。因此推斷作者說明了對旅行者來說了解不同地方的文化差異很重要。故選A。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇文化類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。3．閱讀理解 Uncover a magical mix of new and unforgettable experiences when you add theme park admission.
