答案與解析
[語篇解讀] 本文是一篇小故事,通過三位富人幫助一個貧困村莊的不同方式,闡明“授人以魚,不如授人以漁”的哲理。
1.D 文章開篇點明,在一片遙遠而貧困的土地上,只有富人才不用費盡艱難勉強度日。without great problems 相當于 without much difficulty,意為“不用費盡艱難”。
2.B 根據上下文可知,三位有錢人和他們的仆人們正在趕路(travel),這時他們來到了一個貧窮的(poor)村莊。stand 站立;gather 聚集;run 跑,顯然只有 travel (行走)符合題意。
3.B 根據第一段中 poverty 和第二段首句“第一個富人無法忍受看到這樣的貧困(poverty)”可知,此處用 poor。
4.C 既然第一個富人無法忍受看到這樣的貧困(poverty),所以(so)他從四輪載重馬車上拿出了自己的金銀珠寶分給了村民們。
5.A share sth.(out) among sb.,“分享某物”,此處用人稱代詞 them 指代前面所提到的 all the gold and jewels。
6.B 第二個富人看到這一令人擔憂的(worrying)的形勢,把他所有的食物和飲料送給了村民(the villagers)。curious 好奇的;worrying 令人擔憂的;dangerous 危險的;puzzling 令人困惑的,顯然B項符合題意。
7.A 根據上下文可知,第二位富人把他所有的食物和飲料送給了村民(the villagers),而不是 his servants (他的仆人)/the others/the rest (其他人)。
8.A 第二位富人之所以把他所有的食物和飲料送給了村民是因為他能(could)看得出金錢對這些貧困的村民們眼下沒有多大用處。might 或許;should 應該;must 必須均不合題意。
9.C of little use to sb.,“對某人沒有多大用處”。interest 興趣;concern 關心,關注;attraction 吸引。
10.D 第二位富人確保村民們得到(receive)自己公平的那份,而且有足夠的食物維持一段時間后,他離開了。
11.B last 在此處表示“持續,維持”一段時間,其他三項無此用法。remain 仍然,保持,不用來表示“某種狀態持續的時間長度”;supply 提供;share 分享。
12.D 此處表示第三位富人一看到這一貧困現象,加快了步伐(speed up),一刻也不停地徑直走過了村莊。turn back 轉身;set out 開始,出發;show off 炫耀。
13.A 根據上文 when they came to a very __3__ village 和第12題解析可知,填 village(村莊)。
14.B 此處指前兩位富人從稍遠處看到這一情形,相互評論第三位富人是多么(how)缺乏同情心。用 how 引導感嘆式賓語從句,how 修飾動詞 lack(缺乏)。
15.A 根據上下文可知,他們親自在那兒提供幫助是有好處的(good),而不是 certain 當然的;true 真實的;strange 奇怪的。
16.B 但是三天后他們遇到了(meet)迎面而來的那第三位富人。welcome 歡迎;accept 接受;persuade 勸服,不合題意。
17.A 根據第12題句意可知此處指他仍然(still)匆忙趕路。already 已經;always 總是;indeed 確實。
18.B 但是他的四輪馬車上裝滿了農用工具和一袋袋的種子,而不是(instead of)原本一直裝載著(carry)的金子和蔬菜。except for 除了……;apart from 除了……;除了……還有……;along with 和……一起,以及。
19.C 此處用 carry 相當于 be loaded with,意為“裝載著”。
20.D 此處用 seed (種子)表示第三位富人不同于前兩位“送錢送食物”緩解一時的困境,而是幫助他們種植莊稼,從根本上解決貧困問題。
?、?閱讀理解
If your boss asks you to work in Moscow this year, he'd better offer you more money to do so—or even double that depending on where you live now.That's because Moscow has just been found to be the world's most expensive city for the second year in a row by Mercer Human Resources Consulting.
Using the cost of living in New York as a base, Mercer determined Moscow is 34.4 percent more expensive including the cost of housing,transportation, food, clothing, household goods and entertainment(娛樂).
A two-bedroom flat in Moscow now costs $4,000 a month; a CD $24.83, and an international newspaper $6.30, according to Mercer.By comparison, a fast food meal with a hamburger(漢堡包) is a_steal at $4.80.
London takes the No.2 place, up from No.5 a year ago, thanks to higher cost of housing and a stronger British pound relative to the dollar.Mercer estimates(估算) London is 26 percent more expensive than New York these days.Following London closely are Seoul and Tokyo, both of which are 22 percent more expensive than New York, while No.5 Hong Kong is 19 percent more costly.
Among North American cities, New York and Los Angeles are the most expensive and are the only two listed in the top 50 of the world's most expensive cities.But both have fallen since last year's study—New York came in 15th, down from 10th place, while Los Angeles fell to 42nd from 29th place a year ago.San Francisco came in a distant third at No.54, down 20 places from a year earlier.
Toronto, meanwhile, is Canada's most expensive city but fell 35 places to take 82nd place worldwide.In Australia, Sydney is the priciest place to live in and No.21 worldwide.
1. What do the underlined words “a steal” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.an act of stealing.
B.something delicious.
C.something very cheap.
D.an act of buying.
2.London has become the second most expensive city because of ________.
A.the high cost of clothing
B.the stronger pound against the dollar
C.its expensive transportation
D.the high prices of fast food meals
3. Which city is the third most expensive on the list?
A.Tokyo.
B.Hong Kong.
C.Moscow.
D.Sydney.
4.Which city has dropped most on the list in North America?
A.New York.
B.Los Angeles.
C.San Francisco.
D.Toronto.
答案與解析
[語篇解讀] 本文主要介紹Mercer Human Resources Consulting對世界上一些城市的生活水平所做的調查。其中通過具體數字重點介紹排名前5名及北美、澳大利亞等重要城市本年度排名變化。
1.C 猜測詞義題。由文中第三段內容及所列數字判斷此句是比較價格的,此句首語By comparison是關鍵信息。
2.B 事實細節題。根據第四段第一句...,thanks to higher cost of housing and a stronger British pound relative to the dollar.可知英鎊對美元的兌換率提高了。
3.A 推理判斷題。根據文章中第四段和第六段涉及的相關城市可排除Hong Kong和Sydney兩個城市,Moscow 又位居第一位,由此可得出結論。
4.D 推理判斷題。本題首先了解相關背景知識,我們應知道Toronto是居于北美洲的城市之一,然后根據文章第五、六段得出答案。Toronto排名82位,下降了35位。
