  • 第3题:

    Text 4 Will the European Union make it?The question would have sounded strange not long ago.Now even the project's greatest cheerleaders talk of a continent facing a“Bermuda triangle”of debt,population decline and lower growth.As well as those chronic problems,the EU faces an acute crisis in its economic core,the 16 countries that use the single currency.Markets have lost faith that the euro zone's economies,weaker or stronger,will one day converge thanks to the discipline of sharing a single currency,which denies uncompetitive members the quick fix of devaluation.Yet the debate about how to save Europe's single currency from disintegration is stuck.It is stuck because the euro zone's dominant powers,France and Germany,agree on the need for greater harmonization within the euro zone,but disagree about what to harmonies.Germany thinks the euro must be saved by stricter rules on borrow,spending and competitiveness,backed by quasiautomatic sanctions for governments that do not obey.These might include threats to freeze EU funds for poorer regions and EU megaprojects and even the suspension of a country's voting rights in EU ministerial councils.It insists that economic coordination should involve all 27 members of the EU club,among whom there is a small majority for freemarket liberalism and economic rigour;in the inner core alone,Germany fears,a small majority favour French interference.A“southern”camp headed by French wants something different:“European economic government”within an inner core of eurozone members.Translated,that means politicians intervening in monetary policy and a system of redistribution from richer to poorer members,via cheaper borrowing for governments through common Eurobonds or complete fiscal transfers.Finally,figures close to the France government have murmured,eurozone members should agree to some fiscal and social harmonization:e.g.,curbing competition in corporatetax rates or labour costs.It is too soon to write off the EU.It remains the world's largest trading block.At its best,the European project is remarkably liberal:built around a single market of 27 rich and poor countries,its internal borders are far more open to goods,capital and labour than any comparable trading area.It is an ambitious attempt to blunt the sharpest edges of globalization,and make capitalism benign.
    The EU is faced with so many problems that_____

    A.it has more or less lost faith in markets
    B.even its supporters begin to feel concerned
    C.some of its member countries plan to abandon euro
    D.it intends to deny the possibility of devaluation

    答案:B
    解析:
    细节题【命题思路】这是一道局部细节题,需要对文章首段的信息进行锁定,从而判断得出答案。【直击答案】根据题干信息定位到首段第二句“Now even…growth”,这句话中“cheerleader”本意是“拉拉队队长”,在此引申为“支持者”。“a continent”在此句中指代“The EU”,题干的problem是原文crisis的近义替换,这句话说明欧盟的支持者都开始谈论整个欧盟面临的问题,这就说明其支持者也开始为欧盟担忧,由此可判断出B项正确。【干扰排除】由第二段第二句“Markets have lost faith…”,可知市场对欧元区经济体失去信心,但并非A项中的欧盟对市场失去信心,故A项错误。文中并未提及成员国是否放弃使用欧元,C项属于无中生有,不选。由第二段末句“…which denies uncompetitive members the quick fix of devaluation.”可知原文讲的是成员国应对货币贬值的问题,而并非D项“欧盟打算否决贬值的可能性”,故错误。

  • 第4题:

    Maine is justly famous for its beautiful lakes and ponds.

    A:only
    B:rightfully
    C:legally
    D:simply

    答案:B
    解析:
    本句意思:缅因州以其美丽的湖泊而闻名是理所应当的。only的意思为“仅有,只有”; rightfully的意思为“正当地,正直地”; legally的意思为“合法地,法律上”; simply的意思为“简单 地”。justly的意思为“应得地,公正地”,和rightfully的意思接近。

  • 第5题:


    A.its natural,crude flavor
    B.its ditorted depiction of people’s daily life
    C.its penetrating sight
    D.its fantastical enthusiasm

    答案:B
    解析:
    题干问:休斯先前的诗人们创作的诗歌特点是( )。A项“自然、原始的风味”,B项“对日常琐事的记录编写”,C项“洞穿一切的视角”,D项“梦幻式的热情”。本文第一段讲述了休斯诗歌的特点。根据第一段第二句Poetry specialised,at that moment,in the wry chronicling of the everyday.可知,当时盛行的诗歌特色是the wry chronicling of the everyday;紧接着第三句The poetry of Yorkshire-born Ted Hughes,…,was unlike anything written by his immediate predecessors.就指出休斯的作品不同于他前辈的诗歌;接下来的几句都是讲述休斯作品具体的特色。由此可以推断出,第二句所描写的就是其前人作品的特点,即“对日常琐事的记录编写”。故本题选B。参考译文:1957年,他横空出世,成为英国战后最引人瞩目的诗坛天才。当时,人诗的皆为日常琐事,令人啼笑皆非。但出生在约克郡的特德·休斯的作品却与其前辈们大相径庭,他27岁时在名为《雨中的鹰》一书中发表了第一首诗。受詹姆士一世风格的影响,其诗歌呈现出幻觉式的激情,最显著的特点是休斯可以描述动物外表下的东西,无论是狐狸、水獭还是猪。这些动物的确是真实的,但同时又是标志性的,代表着乡村,代表着它们植根的地球的生命之源。正是这一点赋予了其作品一种野性、原始的气息。

  • 第16题:

    In any country, the "standard ofliving" means the average person′s share of the goods and services whichthe country produces. Therefore, a country′s standard of living depends firstand foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in thissense is not money, but "goods" such as food and clothing, and"services" such as transport and entertainment.
    The capacity to produce wealth depends uponmany factors, most of which have an effect on one another. To a great extent,wealth depends upon a country′s natural resources, such as coal, gold, andother minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are wellsupplied with coal and minerals, and some are not.
    Next to natural resources comes the abilityto turn them to use. Some countries are perhaps well off in natural resources,but unable to develop their resources. They suffered for many years from civiland external wars. Peaceful political and stable conditions enable a country todevelop its natural resources effectively, and to produce more wealth thananother country equally well served by nature but less well ordered. Anotherimportant factor is the technical efficiency of a country′s people.Industrialized countries that have trained numerous skilled workers andtechnicians produce wealth more than countries whose workers are largelyunskilled.
    A country′s standard of living does notonly depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its ownborders, but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade.
    For instance, Britain′s wealth isfoodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had todepend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplusmanufacture goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products. In thisaspect, a country′s wealth is much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,provided that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures. A country′s capacity to produce wealthdepends on all the factors EXCEPT FOR ______

    A.people's share of its goods
    B.political and social stability
    C.qualities of its workers
    D.use of natural resources

    答案:A
    解析:
    细节题。第二、三段指出了决定一个国家创造财富的能力的多种因素,如natural resources,the use of naturalresources,political and social stability,technical efficiency of works等。A项本身是生活标准,不符合题干要求,故选A。
