选项
答案
Americans’houses,yards and even their offices can seem open and inviting.Yet in the minds ofAmericans.there are boundaries that other people are simply not supposed to cross
解析
inviting这个词在这里用的是考生不太熟悉的意思“有吸引力的”,跟“邀请”没有关系,所以构成了考生理解上的困难,不少考生写错,此外,seem写成了seen,cross写成了across,或者后半句写不出的也是典型的问题。boundaries一词虽难,但下一句中有出现,可以利用。
