  • 第15题：

    Large companies need a way to reach the savings of the public.The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs.There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects.So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits.This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange.By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of individuals and institutions, both at home and overseas.

    When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it.Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.

    Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities.Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railway, this country could not function.All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone.The Government, local authorities, and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to the Stock Exchange.

    There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development.In one way or another this new money must come from the savings of the country.The Stock Exchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance.

    1、The money which enables those companies to go ahead with their projects is().

    A、exchanged for part ownership in the Stock Exchange

    B、raised by the selling of shares in the companies

    C、repaid to its original owners as soon as possible

    D、invested in different companies in the Stock Exchange

    2、All the essential services on which we depend are().

    A、unable to provide for the needs of the population

    B、financed wholly by rates and taxes

    C、in constant need of financial support

    D、run by the government or local organizations

    3、The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the Government, local authorities and nationalized industries().

    A、to make certain everybody saves money

    B、to borrow as much money as they wish

    C、to make certain everybody lends money to them

    D、to raise money to finance new development


    参考答案：BCD

  • 第18题：

    __________, John remains modest and iswilling to accept suggestions from others.

    A.However his notable contributions
    B.His making notable contributions
    C.For all his notable contributions
    D.Instead of his contributions

    答案：C
    解析：
    考查让步状语从句。For all相当于despite或in spite of，表示“尽管，虽然”，可以用来引导让步性短语，或跟that从句。句意为“尽管约翰做出了卓越的贡献，但他还是很谦逊并乐意接受别人的建议”。however可以用来引导让步状语从句，但其后不能直接跟名词短语，如在本句中应为howevernotable his contributions are。故C项正确。

  • 第23题：

    问答题
    Practice 10　　What we today call American folk art was, art of, by, and for ordinary, everyday I “folks” who, with increasing prosperity and leisure, created a market for art of all kinds, and especially for portraits. Citizens of prosperous, essentially middle-class republics—whether ancient Romans，seventeenth-century Dutch burghers, or nineteenth-century Americans—have always shown a marked taste for portraiture. Starting in the late eighteenth century, the United States contained an increasing number of such people, and of the artists who could meet their demands.　　The earliest American folk art portraits come, not surprisingly, from New England—especially Connecticut and Massachusetts—for this was a wealthy and populous region and the center of a strong craft tradition. Within a few decades after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the population was pushing westward, and the portrait painters could be found at work in western New York, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri. Midway through its first century as a nation, the United States' population had increased roughly five times, and eleven new states had been added to original thirteen. During these years, the demand for portraits grew and grew, eventually to be satisfied by camera.

    正确答案： 【参考译文】
    我们所说的美国民间艺术是由普通百姓所拥有、创造并享受的艺术。随着财富和闲暇与日俱增,他们创造了各种艺术的市场,特别是肖像绘画。家境殷实的、主要是中产阶级的市民——不管他们是古罗马人,或是l7世纪荷兰自治城市富裕居民,抑或是l9世纪的美国人——都对肖像绘画艺术表现出突出的爱好。从18世纪晚期开始,美国这一群体的数量不断增加,而且满足画像要求的艺术家也不断地增加。
    勿需惊奇,美国最早的民间艺术画像来自于新英格兰地区——特别是康涅狄格州和麻萨诸塞州——因为这一地区富裕,人口稠密,而且是浓厚艺术传统的中心。l776年《独立宣言》宣布后的几十年中,人口不断西徙,在纽约州西部、俄亥俄州、肯塔基州、伊利诺伊州、密苏里州,人们随处可见肖像画师绘画的身影。美国独立后50年间,人口增加了近五倍,原先l3个州又增加了11个。在这些岁月里,肖像绘画的需求不断增长,直到有了照相机才算得到满足。
