When peter and Rose came to the United States from the Philippines. they lived in an apartment in the center of Chicago. Rose worked as an account in a downtown bank. However, then Rose was promoted to be a supervisor in the bank and transferred to an office in the suburbs, and so they had to move. After looking for a long time, they bought a house in the suburbs with three bedrooms, a basement and a garage.
One morning, their new neighbor, Mrs. Todd, came to their house and invited them to her house to meet all the neighbors over the weekend. On the Saturday night, at 7 o’clock, Peter and Rose walked to Mrs. Todd’s home. Lots of people were at the party. Several people congratulated Rose and Peter on their new home. About 8:30 Peter walked over to Rose and asked, "When will they serve dinner? I’m really hungry." "I don’t know," Rose answered, "I’m hungry too. Maybe they like to eat late."
At 9:15, everyone was still standing, talking arid enjoying the refreshments. Peter was feeling weak and hungry. Rose brought him a bowl of crackers and some cheese. By 10 o’clock, Peter was sick of crackers. And he was still very hungry. Then, some people thanked Mrs. Todd and left. Then Rose realized her mistake, after all, this was not a dinner part. She took Peter with her and thanked Mrs. Todd and left quickly for the fast food restaurant.
选项
A、They had lived too long in the city.
B、They were not familiar with the American customs.
C、They were quite particular about food.
D、They enjoyed going to the neighborhood parties.
答案
B
解析
综合理解题。文章开头提到Peter和Rose是从菲律宾来的,所以最有可能的是他们不了解美国的文化风俗,这是造成误解的原因。A恰与他们在晚会上的遭遇相矛盾,所以排除;C文中未提及:D只是一种可能。所以正确答案只能是B。
