第3题：
Why does the author mention Fuller s The Sea？( )A.To point out a dance of Fuller’s in which music did not play an important role.
B.To explain why Fuller sometimes used music by progressive composers.
C.To ilustrate a particular way in which Fuller developed as an artist.
D.To ilustrate how Fuller’s interest in science was reflected in her work.答案：C解析：细节题。根据题干关键词The Sea定位到文章第五段的第三句。该句将The Sea作为一个作品示例，但例证的观点或主题需要根据段落上下文确定。段落第一句提到“随着专业技能方面的复杂化、成熟化，富勒在舞蹈的其他方面也得到了发展”。段落第二句举出了使用音乐的例子，第三句中The Sea作为舞蹈主题方面的例子出现，由此可见，两个例子都是为了证明富勒在舞蹈其他方面的发展，而这些发展都是富勒自己独特的尝试。C项“说明富勒发展成一个艺术家的特殊方式”与之相符。A项“在富勒的一个舞蹈中，音乐的作用不大”，B项“解释为什么富勒有时会用先进音乐家的音乐”，D项“阐述富勒对科学的兴趣如何在她的作品中反映出来”，均不正确。 -

We were both working at the evening news section. His name was Jack and he was responsible for news editing while I was the assistant of the chief editor. On the first day of work, I simply spin around with lots of paper materials and tapes in my hands and couldn’t find my way. Jack leaded me to the office and helped me work out those papers. He was very competent and responsible. Besides, he was outgoing and warm-hearted with a big smile on his face. He was really a nice guy to work with. Before long, he became very popular among all the colleagues. Everybody enjoyed talking to him and being around him. I liked working with him too. He would strive to solve others’ trouble. I’ve known him for 4 years and I wish we could be colleagues again someday.解析：

第21题：
单选题Why does the author say at the beginning “The miserable fate of Enron’s employees will be a landmark in business history…”?ABecause the company has gone bankrupt.
BBecause such events would never happen again.
CBecause many Enron workers lost their retirement savings.
DBecause it signifies a turning point in economic security.
正确答案： D解析：
推断题。既然题干中提到“Enron职工的悲惨命运将是商业史上标志性的事件”，可见此事对整个商界产生了巨大的影响。公司的破产或员工失去退休积蓄并不会对整个商界产生影响，而是其产生的影响构成了标志性事件，排除A、C项。文中并未提及这种事情将不再发生，B项说法过于绝对，故排除。从文章第二段可知，20世纪的一个audacious promise就是经济安全：政府的福利制度、劳工组织的保障、以及大企业财团的产生，让职工们普遍认为他们的工作是终身的，并且退休后肯定也有退休金。然而，从第三段开始，作者指出了这个保险体系的decline，以及由此引发的一系列政府、企业等政策的改变，进而最终导致的职工们一无所有的惨状。因此可以说这次事件体现了经济安全方面的转变。故D项符合。 -
