5.Wecaninferthattheauthorholdsa_____attitudetowardthenewtrendofhugging.

A）positiveB）negativeC）indifferentD）conservative

解析：

解题目：

AmericansGetTouchy（易怒的，敏感的）。

从题目来看也相当于社会生活类的文章！

1.Theword"practically"inthefirstparagraphcouldbebestreplacedby_____.

A）certainly当然B）nearly

C）actively积极地、活跃地D）voluntarily自愿地

解析：

本题是词语释义题。

找到该词出现的句子，通过前后文加以推测：

TheNewYorkTimesrecentlyreportedthatAmericanteensarehuggingpracticallyeveryonetheysee.

句子可以理解成：

《纽约时报》最近报道美国的青少年现在几乎见到每一个人

都会拥抱”。

所以在这个句子里practically和nearly、almost同义。

2.WhichofthefollowingisNOTamongthetypicalwaysofgreetingsinthepast?

A）handsoff"What'sup"B）handshake

C）high-fiveD）embrace

解析：

题目是：

下面哪一个不是过去典型的打招呼的方式？

这是细节题！

核心词就是：

thepast.答案在第一段后面：

Saygoodbyetothegreetingsofthepast,fromthehands-off"What'sup!

"（A选项）tothehandshake（B选项）orhigh-five（C选项）.Foryoungpeopleacrossthecountry,huggingisthenew"Hello".

划线的都是人们过去打招呼的方式，而D（拥抱）是现代的。

3.Someparents,teachersandschooladministratorsconcernthenewtrendofhuggingforthefollowingreasonsEXCEPT:

A）Someyoungpeoplegetinvolvedintothetrendduetopeerpressure.

B）Thosewhodon'treceivehugsfeelleftout.

C）There'sthedangerthathuggingslideintothemoreominousterritoryofsexualharassment.

D）Diseasescouldbetransmittedmoreeasilythroughtheextra-longbodycontact.

解析：

题目是说：

一些父母，老师和学校的管理人员担心这种新的拥抱的趋势有几个原因，除了。

。

。

答案出现在第三段：

Astrendsgo,thisoneseemsprettyinnocent（简单的、单纯的）.Butsomeparents,teachersandschooladministratorsareworried（焦虑的、关心的）nonetheless.Willyoungpeoplewhoaren'tascomfortablewithphysicalcontact（身体的接触）feelpeerpressured（有压力的）intohugging（A选项）?

Willkidswhodon'treceivehugsfeelleftOut（B选项）?

Couldanextra-longhugslideinto（变成）themoreominous（不良的）territory（侵犯）ofsexualharassment（性骚扰）（C选项）?

所以综上所述：

在谈及成年人对青少年越来越多地以拥抱的方式打招呼这一趋势所表达的关切，包括担心有一些人纯粹因为来自同伴的压力而不得不接受这样一种方式，担心那些不接受拥抱这种打招呼方式的人有被边缘化的感觉，甚至担心见面拥抱会成为性骚扰的保护外衣。

但没有提及对拥抱可能更容易传播疾病有所担心。

使用选D。

4.Whichofthefollowingstatementsistrueaccordingtothepassage?

A）TeenagersacrosstheUShugeveryonetheyseeinnearlythesameway.

B）Althoughsomeadultsworryaboutthetrend,fewmeasureshavebeentakentobanonit.

C）Traditionally,theUSpeoplehavebeenreservedabouthuggingbetweenanybody.

D）Insomecountries,it'susualformentokisseachotheronthecheek.

解析：

细节题。

问哪个是正确的？

通过阅读下面的段落，我们可以判断得出：

第4段所讲的就是制定了一些措施限制拥抱，所以答案B不对；

第5段所讲的是：

尽管美国从传统上来讲在亲戚间，恋人间、朋友间亲吻和拥抱是保守的，然而在世界其他地方人们世世代代都这样问候，所以C表述上有错误。

而在第二段，我们看到尽管青少年见到每个人都会拥抱，但形式是多种多样的。

所以A是错误的。

而在第7段中，我们看到：

butinsomecountrieslikeTurkey,it'snotunusualformenwhoknoweachotherwelltoexchangekissesonthecheek.（在一些国家，比如土耳其，男人见面时互相亲吻脸颊很正常。

）所以选D。

5.Wecaninferthattheauthorholdsa_____attitudetowardthenewtrendofhugging.

A）positive积极的B）negative消极的

C）indifferent漠不关心的D）conservative保守的

解析：

本题是推断题。

题目是说：

作者对于拥抱的态度是。

。

。

从整篇文章的内容来看，作者对拥抱成为美国年轻人间打招呼的方式这一趋势持一个比较积极的态度。

尤其是文章的最后的三个段落更能体现他的态度：

看最后一段：

So,fromaglobalperspective（从一个全球的角度来看）,thenewtrendofteenhugginginAmericaisnotso"new"afterall（毕竟）.Peopleallaroundtheworldmoveinclosetosayhello,andAmericansarejustnowjoiningin.

他认为其他文化中这样一种方式已经存在了很长的时间，从全球范围来看，美国不过是加入了其他国家的行列而已。
