一、阅读理解。

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

I had the honour of being elected chief of my tribe(部落)．With the title came great responsibility.It was my job to make peace with the Maori Tamaki tribe，whose village we visited.Their soldiers jumped from a canoe and faced us down with fierce crying，sticking eyes and much noise of sticks.They laid a palm leaf on the ground and，as head，I was forced to accept this peace offering by picking it up, then touching noses with their chief.“Kia ora，” he said，welcoming us into the woodland home of his people.

My “tribe” was my New Zealand coach tour group，who had forced me into being their leader.We'd been warned that the ceremony was a serious occasion and that to laugh or even smile would be considered rude to the Tamaki.After that it was non-stop fun as they demonstrated their ancient customs and I received instruction in performing the haka，the war dance immortalized(使不朽)by the All Blacks rugby team.

Then they pulled our dinner of lamb，beef and vegetables out of the ground.It had been slow-cooked in the heat just below the surface in the geothermal(地热的)area of North Island，a Maori tradition known as a hangi that goes back an extremely long period of time.

Obviously，this form of it is put on for tourists but it was hugely enjoyable.The journey back to the hotel was alone worth the effort，our elder Maori driver being deserving of his own television show.“The wheels on the bus go round and round，”he got us singing，while he circuited a roundabout three times.

A couple of days from the end of our trip，there was still something missing，a New Zealand icon I wanted to see to make my grand tour complete.Riding over a ridge，there it was— Aotearoa.The Maori name for New Zealand translates as “the land of the long white cloud”．Can I say “Kia ora，Aotearoa？” You bet I can.

1．How were the visitors greeted in the tribe? A．The soldiers made a palm leaf road. B．The soldiers touched their noses. C．The soldiers shook sticks fiercely. D．The soldiers made noise with shut eyes. 2．Which refers to the Maori cooking custom?

A．Kia ora. B．Haka. C．Hangi. D．Tamaki.

3．What does the author think of the driver? A．He was good at singing. B．He made the journey memorable. C．He was not familiar with the road. D．He performed well on a TV show. 4．What is the best title for the text? A．A taste of Maori culture B．Hello，New Zealand

C．The honour of being a tribe chief D．The best of New Zealand

【解题导语】本文为记叙文，作者讲述了他去新西兰旅游时接触到的毛利文化。 1．C 考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Their soldiers jumped from a canoe and faced us down with fierce crying，sticking eyes and much noise of sticks.They laid a palm leaf on the ground and”可知，毛利部落的勇士们从独木舟上跳下来，用狂热的叫喊、瞪大的眼睛和巨大的棍棒晃动声将作者一行人镇住了，他们还在地面上放置一片棕榈叶。这些都是毛利人对游客表示欢迎的方式。故选C。

2．C 考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Then they pulled our dinner of lamb，beef and vegetables out of the ground.It had been slow-cooked in the heat...a Maori tradition known as a hangi”可知，在地下土炉中烹制食物是毛利饮食传统，这被称为hangi。

3．B 考查推理判断。根据第四段的“The journey back to the hotel was alone worth the effort，our elder Maori driver being deserving of his own television show...”可知，作者一行人的回宾馆之旅让他们难忘：有表演天赋的毛利老司机让作者他们一路欢歌，故选B。

4．A 考查主旨要义。作者作为赴新西兰的旅游团的队长，在旅游中有幸接触毛利文化，这给作者留下了深刻的印象，故A项“体验毛利文化”作标题最佳。
