  Some Japanese still get married by parents’ arrangement.Yoshio and Hiromis Tanaka, a young Japanese   1   living in the United States, told the story of their   2   marriage.“We didn’t marry for love in the western sense.We got married in the  3   Japanese way.Our parents arranged our marriage   4   a match-maker.In Japan, we believe that marriage is   5   affecting the whole family rather than a matter concerning(与……有关)only the young couple.  6   we think it is very important to match people according to their   7   background, education and so on.When our parents thought it was time for us to get married, they went to a local   8   and asked her for some suggestion.We discussed the details and looked at the   9   she sent, and then our parents asked her to arrange an interview for   10   of us.”

  A Japanese marriage interview is held in   11   place, such as a hotel or a restaurant, and is   12   by the boy and the girl, their parents and the match-maker.Information about the couple and their families is   13   over a cup of tea or a meal.Then the boy and the girl are   14   for a short time to know each other.When they return home, they have to tell the family   15   they want to meet again or not.

  Yoshio   16  ,“When our parents realized we were   17   about each other, they started to make arrangements for our wedding.My family paid money to   18  .This is the money to help pay for the wedding ceremony and for setting up the house   19  .We also gave her family a beautiful ornament(装饰品)to put in the   20   room of their house, so everyone knew that Hiromis was going to marry.”

答案:1.B;2.B;3.C;4.A;5.D;6.C;7.A;8.D;9.C;10.B;11.A;12.C;13.D;14.C;15.B;16.B;17.C;18.B;19.A;20.D;
解析:

(1)

在这里讲述自己的婚姻过程的一定是结了婚的人,且前面提到了两个人名。所以本题的答案是B项,指一对年轻的夫妇。A项指人们,太笼统。C项指两个人,但不一定是结了婚的人。D项指家人、家庭,用在这里不合适。

(2)

这里讲述他们的婚姻情况,实际上是介绍日本人的婚姻。从全篇来看,他们的婚姻是由父母安排的而不是年轻人自己来决定的。所以这里的正确答案应该是B项,即“安排好了的”。

(3)

Yoshio和Hiromis Tanaka的婚姻完全是按照日本传统的(traditional)来进行的,而非文化的(cultural)、新颖的(new)、古老的(old)。

(4)

日本的婚俗要求父母给孩子找对象时去当地的媒婆那里找信息,打听一些情况。所以在此应该是通过媒婆来安排婚姻。应该选用介词through。

(5)

本句的意思是“我们认为婚姻关系整个家庭,而不仅仅是两个人之间的事情”。故选D项。其中“affecting the whole family rather than a matter concerning only the young couple”作定语修饰something。

(6)

因为他们有着传统的关于婚姻的看法,顺其自然也就产生了下面的想法,所以应选用表示承接的连词。so强调的是语意的承接,then强调的是时间的承接。在这里文章表示语意的承接,so是最佳选项。

(7)

传统的日本婚姻观认为婚姻门当户对是很重要的,所以其背景应该是社会背景而非自己的(own)、朋友的(friends’)或父母的(parents’)背景。

(8)

当孩子到了结婚的岁数,他们的父母要通过媒婆进行一些信息的了解,所以要找的是媒婆,而不是official(官员)、relative(亲戚)、minister(部长)。由下文的ask“her” for…也可选出答案。

(9)

父母们看的是女方送给媒婆的照片,这是利用排除法得来的。因为女方不可能送给媒婆letters(信件)、money(钱)和clothes(衣服)。

(10)

two of us的意思是“我们中的两个”,我们的人数多于两人;the two of us的意思是“我们两个”,强调就两人。

(11)

旅店、饭店等场合不应该是一个秘密场合(a secret place),不一定都是昂贵的场合(an expensive place)和一个奇怪的场合(a strange place),而应该是公共场合(a public place)。

(12)

见面会应该由男女年轻人还有他们的父母和媒婆参加。

(13)

日本的婚姻风俗是强调门当户对的,在这样的场合,必须了解的应该有各个方面的信息,所以在本题中应该是在一杯茶或一顿饭的时间内把一些关于两个年轻人和他们父母的信息互相交换一下,所以本题的答案应该是交流(exchanged)。

(14)

随后的交流应该留给那对年轻人,让他们互相了解。left somebody alone是一个短语,意思是“不管,不打扰”。

(15)

当那对年轻人回到家后,他们要向他们的父母表明是否想再见面,也就是说是否真诚、认真、有好感,父母在其基础上也征询了孩子们的意见,所以该题的答案是whether(是否),其引导的宾语从句作tell的宾语。

(16)

他的话语还没有说完,然后他接着说,此题的答案应该是continued。

(17)

父母安排婚礼之前,也征询了孩子们的意见,也就是说,当孩子们有了一种挺好的感觉时,他们的父母再安排婚礼。anxious的意思是“不安的,担心的”;worried也是“着急,忧虑”的意思;interested的意思是“感兴趣”,但它常用于be interested in短语。serious的意思是“严肃的;认真的”,在此用此词是很恰当的。

(18)

年轻夫妇中一个叫Yoshio,一个叫Hiromis;其中Tanaka是男方的姓。Yoshio家把礼钱给Hiromis的家人,而不是直接给Hiromis。

(19)

礼钱的用途是婚礼的花销和以后建房的需要。虽然later也表示以后,但其常与过去时和将来时连用。

(20)

cleanest意为“最干净,最整洁的”,quietest意为“最安静的”,warmest意为“最温暖的”,best意为“最好的”。按常理,应该把装饰品装在女方家中最好的房间里面。
