4.In August 1997 a car carrying England’s Princess Diana and her companions was involved in a late night crash in a Paris tunnel. Reports immediately surfaced that Diana had died after a high-speed race away from paparazzi in hot pursuit. Some witnesses claimed that a cameraperson on a motorbike had cut in front of the speeding Mercedes to slow it down, resulting in the tragedy. Others contended that several paparazzi descended on the wreck snapping pictures rather than giving assistance to the victims. Several had their cameras confiscated, and five were arrested by Paris police for failure to offer aid.The paparazzi defended themselves with a number of arguments. Princess Diana was a public figure and therefore newsworthy. She had openly and often attracted media attention both for selfish reasons (to win public support during her marital difficulties) and for good causes (fighting AIDS and banning land mines). The fact that the paparazzi were not employed by a specific news organization should not mean they were less worthy of press freedom. Virtually every major news operation of any standing in the world employs people like them. Moreover, even the so-called mainstream press regularly paid for the product of their efforts. They did what they did because people wanted their kind of news coverage.Many news operations were unconvinced. In England, France, Germany, and the United States, several media outlets declared that they would never again purchase paparazzi photos and videos. In Great Britain, the head of the national press council called for severe restrictions on the movement and functioning of these paparazzi.(1)According to the witnesses, what’s the reason for the car crash?A、It was a late night.B、The hot pursuit of paparazzi.C、The Mercedes was too fast.D、Several paparazzi snapped pictures(2)Where did the accident happen?A、LondonB、Germany.C、Paris.D、England.(3)What's the meaning of the sentence in the middle of paragraph 2 ⋯ should not mean they were less worthy of press freedom. ?A、they do not have press freedom.B、they have little press freedom.C、They were worthy of press freedom.D、they have more freedom than the specific news organization.(4)According to the passage, what can we learn about the paparazzi?A、Paparazzi sold pubic figure’s photos and videos to the press.B、They offered aid after the accident happened.C、Paparazzi were employed by a specific news organizationD、After the accident, they were not arrested by Paris police.(5)Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A、The paparazzi defended themselves with a number of arguments.B、Even the mainstream press regularly paid for the product of paparazzi.C、Princess Diana was a public figure and therefore newsworthy.D、Nobody called for severe restrictions on the movement of paparazzi.

    The goals ___________ he had fought all his life no longer seemed important to him.

    A.after which
    B.for which
    C.with which
    D.at which

    答案：B
    解析：
    考查习惯搭配。这是一个“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句，修饰先行词goals。从句中有动词fight与介词构成的动介短语，将介词提到关系代词which前就形成了现在的结构。因此，只需要判别 fight与下面各介词构成的搭配的含义即可：fight after“争夺”，fight for“为……而奋斗”，fight with“与……战斗”，没有fight at搭配。结合句意“他为之奋斗一生的目标似乎对他不再重要了”可知，答案为B项。

  • 第16题：

    By saying "spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable" (Line 1-2, Para.3), the author sug- gests that（ ）

    [A] collectors were no longer actively involved in art-market auctions

    [B] people stopped every kind of spending and stayed away from galleries

    作者说，“任何形式的消费都显得非常不合时宜”(第三段第一至二行)，是在暗______。
    [A]收藏家们不再积极参与艺术品市场的拍卖
    [B]人们停止了所有种类的消费，并且远离画廊
    [C]在很大程度上，作为时尚的艺术收藏已经失去了吸引力
    [D]通常意义的艺术作品已经落伍，因此不再值得购买
    答案解析：[A]语义理解题。文章第三段第一句“In the weeks and months that Nllowed Mr．Hirst’Ssale，spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable．”提到“在Hirst先生的作品出售之后的数周乃至数月里，任何形式的消费都显得非常不合时宜”，紧接着第二句，作者给出了进一步解释，“…that meant collectors stayed away from galleries and salerooms．”表示“这意味着收藏家远离了画廊和销售店。”很显然，这指的是收藏家不再花钱购买艺术品，即他们不再积极参与艺术品市场的拍卖了，所以[A]为正确答案。[B]的说法太绝对，直接排除。文中也没有提到艺术品已经失去了吸引力，或者不值得购买，因此[C]和[D]也应排除。

    C

    try to re-set their “internal clock”

    D

    正确答案： C
    解析：
    判断推理题。题目询问“为了工作时保持清醒，夜班人员应该怎样？”从原文第二句“Quite often the clock tells them to steep when their job...”可知，他们的工作要求他们完全清醒而生物钟则要求他们睡觉，从而推断，要想工作时保持清醒就要同生物钟做斗争。正确答案为C。
