第1题：
The official statistics on productivity growth ________.
[A] exclude the usual rebound in a business cycle
[B] fall short of businessmen’s anticipation
[C] meet the expectation of business people
[D] fail to reflect the true state of economy
正确答案：B
47. [B] 意为：与商人的预想不符。或：不像商人预想的那样好。
第二段指出，官方的统计数字也并不怎么乐观，如果将制造业和服务业算在一起(lump... together)，1989年以来生产率平均增长了 1.2％，比前十年的平均指数略有增长；1991年后，生产率每年增长约 2％，是1978年至 1987年这十年平均指数的一倍多。然而问题是：最近显示出的增长部分是由商业领域里此时出现的正常的反弹造成的，因此，不能将它看作是更深层的（当指生产率）振兴的证据。正如财政部长鲁宾所说的那样，一方面，大量的商业神话似乎表明生产率的激增(leap)，另一方面，（官方的）统计数字又是另一番景象，二者之间存在着一个“差距”(disjunction)。定位到第二段的这几句：There is, as Robert Rubin, the treasury secretary, says, a "disjunction" between the mass of business anecdote that points to a leap in productivity and the picture reflected by the statistics.其意思是：正如财政部长罗伯特?鲁宾所说的，生产力发生飞跃的商业传奇与统计数字所反映的情况之间存在着一种“脱节”。商业传奇即是说大量的商业神话似乎表明生产率的激增(leap)。因此，可以得出结论，经济发展的实际情况和商人们所塑造的神话有脱节，即联系到了B 选项。
A意为：排除了商业领域里出现的正常的反弹。此选项定位到了原文第二段中的 The trouble is that part of the recent acceleration is due to the usual rebound that occurs at this point in a business cycle，意思是：近年发生的生产力快速增长部分是由于商业周期通常到了这时候就会出现的反弹造成的。但是官方统计时并未排除此反弹，在原文中没有根据。原文只是说这个反弹是个 trouble，但是并未说找个 trouble被排除了。
C意为：与商人预想的一致。这个与B 选项正好矛盾，参考B 选项的解释。
D 意为：没有准确地反映经济的状况。该选项的说法太笼统了，虽然由原文得出了“脱节”的结论，但是请注意，是生产力发生飞跃的商业传奇与统计数字所反映的情况之间存在着一种“脱节”，而不是该官方统计与经济情况存在脱节。至少，原文并未说该统计不准确，而只是说该统计与商人们预料的不符。 -

第4题：
单选题Which of the following is true according to the passage?AAll the adults in the UK are very lazy
BHalf of the children are very fat before they go to school
CPets will be in trouble if their owners don’t keep healthy
DAll people in Glasgow feel ashamed because they don’t get enough exercise
正确答案： C解析：
推理判断题。第二段提到“half of the adults are so lazy”，因此A项“所有的成年人都很懒惰”属于以偏概全；第六段提到“one in six children in the UK are very fat before they start school”，所以B项中的“一半”错误。倒数第二段提到“Glasgow, was shamed as the laziest city in the UK, with 75% asked thinking they do not get enough exercise”，所以D项中的“all the people”也属于以偏概全。因此C项正确。 -

BSome parts of the brain are closely related to music.
CSome people are born with disability of music.
DSome parts of the brain are closely related to disease.
正确答案： C解析：
是非题。第一段最后两句提到有孤独症状的人mentally deficient, yet most are proficient musicians，因此选项A表述正确。该段第二句指出“刺激大脑两边颞叶能唤醒癫痫病人的‘音乐记忆’”。而颞叶的损伤可能导致所谓的musicogenic epilepsy（音乐性癫痫），由此可知大脑中的某些部分（即颞叶）与音乐相关，因此选项B正确。第二段收据提到有1%的人suffer from amusia, or true tone deafness，可知某些人生来就对音乐完全不懂。只有选项D的内容没有提及。 -
第6题：
单选题Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?AEarthquake destruction is declining.
BEarthquake forecast is improving.
CMan is no longer fearful of earthquakes.
DMan is capable of conquering earthquakes.

A说地震造成的破坏在降低，与第一段的叙述相否；C说人们对地震不再感到恐惧，与最后一段的叙述相否；D说人们已经有能力征服地震，文章第三段第二句只说科学家对地震发生的时间和地点预测越来越准确，全文中也没提过人们可以征服地震。故B项“地震预测得到改进”正确。 -

第17题：
单选题Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?AMany people protested in the past six months.
BMany people threw tomatoes at the German Chancellor.
CMany people threw eggs at an important member of the German Chancellor’s Social Democrats.
DMany people threw eggs at the German Chancellor, but he was not hit.
正确答案： C解析：
事实细节的找寻和判断。根据录音结尾提到的“Tens of thousands have joined protests in the last six weeks…”，可知，这次抗议持续了六周，而非选项A中的six months。另外，录音中提到“The mushy remains of a tomato thrown at a prominent member of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats”，可知抗议过程中有人朝Gerhard Schroeder总理领导的社会民主党中一位重要人物投掷番茄，由此可见，B项和C项的说法均有误。再者，录音最后的“Schroeder himself has been pelted with eggs, none of which hit their mark”，表明人们朝德国总理Schroeder扔过鸡蛋，但未击中，可见，选项D与录音原文内容相符。
【录音原文】
The mushy remains of a tomato thrown at a prominent member of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats has posed a legal dilemma for authorities trying to assess how to punish the thrower. Police investigating the fruit, thrown by an unemployed protestor at the premier of the state of Brandenburg, said they have concluded it was a yellow tomato. Had it been a soft red one, the man would have faced a lesser charge of causing malicious damage. A harder, green tomato could carry the tougher charge of bodily harm. A yellow one is somewhere in between. “In these types of cases it has to do with the consistency of the fruit,” said a spokeswoman for the court in the eastern city of Cottbus. No decision on the charge has yet been reached. Social democratic politicians have been facing the wrath of the public in recent months, especially in the economically depressed east where many people face painful jobless benefit cuts from January 2005. Tens of thousands have joined protests in the last six weeks and Schroeder himself has been pelted with eggs, none of which hit their mark. -
