No one can expect to fully enjoy the adulthood privileges until he is ________.
[A] eleven years old
[B] sixteen years old
[C] twenty-one years old
[D] between twelve and twenty-one years old
正确答案：C
43.[C] 意为：21岁第二段后面部分从 It is during the nine years 到倒数第二句列举了青春期各阶段的权利。其中，第十句（at the age of twenty-one… public office）指出，21岁是开始享有完全成人权利的年龄。所以[C]为正确选项。
11 岁不属于该部分介绍的范围；16岁时只能享有部分成人权利；12到 21岁期间是一个从儿童向成人转变的过程，个人享有权利逐渐增加，但若享有完全成人权利，需要达到 21岁。因此其他项排除。 -

Milosevic's Death
Former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002.
Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941,he was the second son of a priest and a school teacher. Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult.The young Milosevic was"untypical", says Slavoljub Djukic,his unofficial biographer. He was"not interested in sports,avoided excur-sions（短途旅行）and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way-white shirt and tie". One of his old friends said, he could "imagine him as a station-master or punctilious（一丝不苟的）civil servant".
Indeed that is exactly what he might have become,had he not married Mira. She was widely believed to be his driving force.
At university and beyond he did well. He worked for various firms and was a communist party member. By 1986 he was head of Serbia's Central Committee. But still he had not yet really been noticed.
It was Kosovo that gave him his chance.An autonomous province of Serbia,Kosovo was home to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority.In 1989,he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against. But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion. In so doing , he changed into a ruthless（无情的）and determined man. At home with Mira he plotted the downfall of his political enemies. Conspiring（密谋）with the director of Serbian TV,he mounted a modern media campaign which aimed to get him the most power in the country.
He was elected Serbian president in 1990.In 1997,he became president of Yugoslavia. The rest of the story is well-known:his nationalist card caused Yugoslavia's other ethnic groups to fight for their own rights,power and lands.Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.War started and lasted for years and millions died.Then Western countries intervened.NATO bombed Yugoslavia,and he eventually stepped down as state leader in 2000.
Soon after this,Serbia's new government,led by Zoran Djindjic,arrested him and sent him to face justice at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in the Hague.Where did Milosevic die?
A:In a basement.
B:In a prison.
C:In Kosovo.
D:In his own country.答案：B解析：本文开头说到了米洛舍维奇死亡的时间和地点“in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia"，即海牙国际刑事法庭前南斯拉夫仲裁庭的牢房中，显然，可以排除选项D，而pnson和cell为近义词。
本题为推断题。文章第二段最后一句和第三段都提到了这一点，要不是跟Mira结婚，他有可能成为一个站长或是公务员，而在此之前，他并没有太大的抱负。
问题问对米洛舍维奇的命运未产生某种影响的人是谁？尽管文章第二段在讲述他的童年时谈到了他的父母，但看不出他们对他的命运有什么影响。相反，另外三位在一定程度上影响了米洛舍维奇的人生的成与败。
文章倒数第三段中间提到："In 1989, he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against.”他被派到科索沃去消除感觉受到歧视的塞尔维亚人的恐慌。
倒数第二段说“Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.”即1991年，6个共和国中的4个宣布独立后，南斯拉夫解体了。 -

3.few 由前面的对应词many和句中的but可知前后为转折关系,所以应填few。
4.wealthy 由后面的“经常去旅行”可知马可波罗家族很富有。

6.returned 由首句知马可波罗家族是意大利人,故此句意为“从中国回到意大利”。

8.situated 根据下文可以看出本句是在说Shangtu的位置,所以应填situated,意为“座落,位于”。
9.summer 由前两句话可知,Shangtu是Kublai Khan夏天避暑的行宫,此处说Kublai Khan要搬离Shangtu了,也就是说夏天结束了。
10.palace 上文提到Kublai Khan有很多行宫,夏天在Shangtu,夏天结束后便迁往大都,这说明大都也有他的行宫。winter palace冬天的行宫。解析： 暂无解析 -
