iljhr2022-10-04 11:39:541条回答

When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Rivera, the stresses (压力) of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation—you have to finish something.
Here lies the problem for travel writer and food critic (评论家) Edie Jarolim. “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things,” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere--- in Arts and Antiques , in Brides , or in one of her three books, The Complete Idiot Travel Guide to Mexican Beach Resorts .
Her job in travel writing began some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in English in Canada, she took a test for Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S. that she moved there.
Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona.
As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact-checking all the information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the local museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.
小题1:What is most difficult for Jarolim?

A．Working in different places to collect information.

B．Checking all the facts to be written in the guides.

C．Finishing her work as soon as possible.

D．Passing a test to write travel guides.

小题2:What do we know about Jarolim from the text?

A．She is successful in her job.

B．She finds her life full of stresses.

C．She spends half of her time traveling.

D．She is especially interested in museums.

小题3:What would be the best title for the text?

A．Adventures in Travel Writing	B．Working as a Food Critic
C．Travel Guides on the Market	D．Vacationing for a Living

文章介绍了Jarolim以及她的工作，她是一个以旅游为生的作家和评论家。
小题1:细节题。根据最后一段1,2行the hard part is fact-checking all the information.
小题2:推理题。根据文章内容可知作为一个旅游作家和评论家，她写了很多这方面的书，取得了成功。
小题3:主旨大意题。文章介绍了Jarolim，对她来说，旅游就是工作，就是为了谋生。所以D符合文章的意思。; 1年前

一道SAT语法题As a distinct body of writing,Mexican American liter 一道SAT语法题 As a distinct body of writing,Mexican American literature is (relative) young,(having taken) shape only after the conclusion of the Mexican War in 1848. 我知道是relative错了,应该改为relatively.但是为什么having taken 是对的?having 不是只能放在句首不能这样用吗? 标准31年前1: 焦作39 共回答了14个问题 | 采纳率92.9%

这里的having taken加后面的成分是做整个句子的伴随状语的.在我学英语的范围内来看,貌似没有having只能放到句首的说法.可能用having在句中是比较awkward的吧,但是语法上并不错.相比较而言,relative的错误更明显,是best answer.

你的原句是不是“Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family”?
我认为,如果只是你拿出的那句,完全可以用in,意思为他出生在...家庭中;但是,原句中,已经有一个in表示她出生地,再用in句子就会烦琐,所以后面就用to,来说明她的出生对一个家庭的意义,to意思为”对于”．

在大多数城市,无论大小,你都可以吃墨西哥或意大利食品.甚至小城镇都有一个咖啡馆提供简单三餐,各类饮料和美味、新鲜的咖啡.你可以坐在柜台边,或坐在提供的桌子旁.餐馆和咖啡馆的服务是迅速且友好的.这些友善是很自然的,完全不会受到希望多得到些小费的影响.通常情况下,人们会提供账单的15 ％作为小费.

第一句的引导词是who,用来表示,强调的对象是个人,也就是a Mexican
第二句的引导词是that,在引导词为that时,我们把it is/was ……that 拿掉句子依然成立,所以,句子就变成了 last week we sold our old car to a Mexican.,很明显,是强调时间的了.

Sat 语法 although Jonathan is very much interested in Mexican Sat 语法 although Jonathan is very much interested in Mexican culture,he does not speak Spanish and has never visited Mexico. 这是原句也是正选 我选的是 although Jonathan is very much interested in Mexican culture,he does not speak Spanish nor has he ever visited Mexico 这个为什么不对 jeanskun1年前1: 51f56sda56f 共回答了19个问题 | 采纳率89.5%

原题不是这样的啊：
(A) he does not speak Spanish and has never visited Mexico
(B) it is without being able to speak Spanish or having visited Mexico
(C) he does not speak Spanish and has never visited there
(D) he does not speak Spanish nor has he ever visited there
(E) it is without speaking Spanish nor having visited there
没有你给的选项啊,你说的是D吧.
你看A和C就差在最后的there了,there指代不清,所以C不对.你这个D选项也是一样的用了there.
前面说他不会西班牙语,也没去过那里,这个there不知道是指西班牙还是墨西哥.

Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican Ame Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had “seven fathers,” because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated(躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate. In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because her thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university’s Writers’ Workshop, however, she felt lonely----a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “Creative voice.” “It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn’t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That’s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn’t write about.” Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street , when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children’s book, and a short-story collection. 小题1:Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood? A．She had seven brothers. B．She felt herself a nobody. C．She was too shy to go to school. D．She did not have any good teachers. 小题2:The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to _____. A．work for a school magazine B．run away from her family C．make a lot of friends D．develop her writing style 小题3:According to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her success? A．Her early years in college. B．Her training in the Workshop. C．Her feeling of being different. D．Her childhood experience. 小题4:What do we learn about The House on Mango Street ? A．It is quite popular among students. B．It is the only book ever written by Cisneros. C．It wasn’t success as it was written in Spanish. D．It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine. softshanshan1年前1: y-205 共回答了17个问题 | 采纳率82.4%
