    [A] a dangerous moment

    [B] the last decision

    [C] the crucial point

    [D] a brave engagement


    正确答案:C
    本题考查词义理解。crisis一词出现在全文最后一句。该句指出它是一个点(point)。由其上文即倒数第二句可知,在这个点上主人公会完成一个行为或者做出一个决定,这个决定必然使他进入进一步发展轨迹(造成某些一般结果的点)。可见,crisis指的是戏剧中决定情节发展的关键性的转折点,而不是“时刻”、“决定”或“约定”。[C]正确。

    B

    podcasting director

    C

    public radio station

    D

    record company


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    推断题。a major label出现在第四段首句。第三段提到KEXP无法播客诸如John in the Morning一类的节目,给出的原因是“record companies haven’t provided an easy, affordable way for podcasters to license songs”(唱片公司没有为做播客的人license songs提供一种简便且支付得起的方式)。该引用部分所在句意为“KEXP决定不能再无所事事地等着a major label来阻止它们播出”,由此可知a major label指的就是上文提到的record companies(唱片公司),因此选D。

    who function as judges

    C

    who supervise transactions

    D

    who determine the price


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    词义理解题。第四段提到:“in practice it often leaves railroads in the position of determining which companies will flourish and which will fail”,说明现实中铁路部门经常处在决定哪些公司繁荣哪些公司失败的地位,而下文对这种情况提出了疑问,文中的原话是:“Do we really want railroads to be the arbiters of who wins and who loses in the marketplace”难道我们真想让铁路成为市场上决定成败的arbiters吗?所以arbiters与上文的determine呼应,表示“做决定者,仲裁者”的含义。
