第3题：
The origins(起源) of baseball probably stretch back to 1839 when Abner Doubleday, a civil engineering student, laid out a diamond-shaped field at Cooperstown, New York, and attempted to standardize(使标准化) the rules governing the playing of such games as town ball and four old cat, the ancestors(祖先) of baseball. By the end of the Civil War, interest in the game had grown rapidly. Over 200 teams or clubs existed, some of which toured the country playing rivals; they belonged to a national association of "Baseball Players" that had proclaimed(宣布) a set of standard rules. These teams were amateurs(业余爱好者) or semi-professionals, but as the game waxed in popularity, it offered opportunities for profit, and the first professional team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings, appeared in 1869. Other cities soon fielded professional teams, and in 1876 the present National League was organized chiefly by Albert Spalding. Soon a rival league appeared, the American Association. Competition between the two was intense, and in 1883 they played a post-season(季后赛) contest, the first "world's series". The American Association eventually collapsed, but in 1900 the American League was organized.

D、to produce a means of making money

A、reorganize the professional teams
B、enable more professional teams to be set up

A Ride in a Cable-car
A ride in a cable-car is one of the exciting and enjoyable experiences a child can have.In
Switzerland,which is the home of the cable-car,it is used mostly to take tourists up the slope of a mountain,to a restaurant from which one can have a bird-eye view of the surrounding country, or to a top of a ski-run,from which,in winter,skiers glide down the snow covered the slope on skis .In Singapore,however,the cable-car takes one from the summit of a hill on the main island to a low hill on Sentosa,a resort island just off the southern coast.
The cable-car is really a carriage which hangs from a strong steel cable suspended in the air.
It moves along the cable with other cars on pulleys,the wheels of which are turned by electric motors. The cars are painted in eye-catching colours and spaced at regular intervals.Each car can seat up six persons.After the passengers have entered a car,they are locked in from outside by an attendant,they have no control over the movement of the car.
Before long,the passengers get a breath-taking view through the glass windows of the modern city,the bustling harbour,and the several islands off the coast. The car is suspended so high in the air that slips on the sea look like small boats,and boats like toys.On a clear day,both the sky above and the sea below look beautifully blue.
In contrast to the fast-moving traffic on the ground,the cars in the air move in a leisurely manner,allowing passengers more than enough time to take in the scenery during the brief trip to the island of Sentosa.After a few hours on Sentosa,it will be time again to take a cable-car back to Mount Faber. The return journey is no less exciting than the outward trip.The short trip does not bother passengers who want a good view because______.
A: the cars move slowly
B: the cars move quickly
C: the cars are suspended very high
D: the cars have glass windows答案：A解析：选项A、B和D所涉及的情况都在瑞士，这在第一段可以看到。唯有C选项谈新加坡的情况，所以选项C是正确答案。
缆车是由马达带动的，没有驾驶员和轮子，也不受乘客控制。根据文中提示“The cable-car is really a carriage which hangs from a strong steel cable suspended in the air.”所以正确答案是A。
从上下来看，乘客所看到的惊险景色是因为“The car is suspended so high in the air that ships on the sea look like small boats , and boats like toys.”所以答案选B。
旅程虽短，但是“The cars in the air move in a leisurely manner, allowing passengers more than enough time to take in the scenery”，所以答案应该选A。
no less than意为“不比……少”,“和……一样”，所以正确答案应该选C。 -

"Happy Birthday to You"
The main problem in discussing American popular culture is also one of its main characteristics:it
won't stay American.No matter what it is,whether it is films,food and fashion,music,casual sports or slang, it's soon at home elsewhere in the world.There are several theories why American popular culture has had
this appeal.
One theory is that it has been"advertised"and marketed through American films,popular music,and more
recently,television.________(46)They are,after all,in competition with those produced by other countries. Another theory,probably a more common one,is that American popular culture is internationally associ-
ted with something called"the spirit of America"._______(47)
The final theory is less complex:American popular culture is popular because a lot of people in the
world like it.
Regardless of why it spreads,American popular culture is usually quite rapidly adopted and then adapted in
many other countries.________(48)"Happy Birthday to You",for instance,is such an everyday song tha
its source,its American copyright,so to speak,is not remembered.Black leather jackets worn by many heroe
in American movies could be found,a generation later,on all those young men who wanted to make this manly-
look their own.
Two areas where this continuing process is most clearly seen are clothing and music.Some people can
still remember a time when T-shirts,jogging clothes,tennis shoes,denim jackets,and blue jeans were not
common daily wear everywhere.Only twenty years ago,it was possible to spot an American in Paris by his or
her clothes.No longer so:Those bright colors,checkered jackets and trousers,hats and socks which were
once made fun of in cartoons are back again in Paris as the latest fashion._____(49)
The situation with American popular music is more complex because in the beginning,when it was still
clearly American,it was often strongly resisted.Jazz was once thought to be a great danger to youth and their
morals,and was actually outlawed in several countries.Today,while still showing its rather American roots,
has become so well established.Rock 'n' roll and all its variations,country & western music,all have moi
or less similar histories.They were first resisted,often in America as well,as being"low-class",and then:
"a danger to our nation's youth".______(50)And then the music became accepted and was extende
and developed,and exported back to the US.
46.________（46）
A.As a result,its American origins and roots are often quickly forgotten.
B.But this theory fails to explain why American films,music,and television programs are so popular in then selves.
C.American in origin,informal clothing has become the world's first truly universal style.
D.The BBC,for example,banned rock and roll until 1962.
E.American food has become popular around the world,too.
F.This spirit is variously described as being young and free,optimistic and confident,informal and disrespectfu.________（48）
A:As a result,its American origins and roots are often quickly forgotten.
B:But this theory fails to explain why American films,music,and television programs are so popular in then selves.
C:American in origin,informal clothing has become the world's first truly universal style.
D:The BBC,for example,banned rock and roll until 1962.
E:American food has become popular around the world,too.
F:This spirit is variously described as being young and free,optimistic and confident,informal and disrespectfu.答案：A解析：选项B中提到了“this theory"，且B项中的“American films , music , television programs”与后句中的They呼应，并且“美国电影、音乐、电视节目在和其他国家的同类产品竞争”意义衔接，因此B项为正确答案。
这句话解释了某一种“精神”-This spirit，那么在上文中应该提到过一种精神。第三段的第一句话就讲到了国际上都将美国流行文化和所谓“美国精神”联系在一起。这句话对这种精神作了描述。
在空前的句子“美国流行文化往往很快就被其他国家接受和移植”是说原因，后面就应该接结果。选项A以As a result开头，说明它说的是后果，故选A。
第六段主要讲的是美国服装的世界影响。C项说源自美国的休闲服饰成了世界上第一种真正的全球时尚。从内容看，我们应该在与服装有关的段落中找到填入这句话的空白处。
空格前句中看到“他们最初因······被拒绝”,“拒绝”与D项中的“banned”呼应，而D项放在空格处正好构成了“观点＋例子”的逻辑结构，因此D项为正确答案。 -

Car Crime
1. A million motorists leave their cars filled up with petrol and with the keys in the ignition every day.The cars are sitting in petrol stations while drivers pay for their fuel.The Automobile Associ-ation(AA)has discovered that cars are left unattended for an average three minutes and some-times longer as drivers buy drinks,sweets,cigarettes and other consumer items.With payment of credit cards becoming more and more common,it is not unusual for a driver to be out of his car for as long as six minutes,providing the car theft with a golden opportunity.
2. For more than ten years there has been a big rise in car crime than in most other types of crimes .An average of more than two cars a minute are broken into or stolen in the UK.Car crime accounts for almost a third of all reported offenses with no signs that the trend is slowing down.
3. Although there are highly professional criminals involved in car theft,almost 90 percent of car theft is committed by the opportunists.Amateur thieves are aided by our own carelessness.The AA recommends locking up whenever you leave the car and for however short a period.A partially open sunroof or window is a further come-on to thieves.
4. There are many other traps to avoid.The AA has found little awareness among drivers about safe parking. Most motorists questioned made no efforts to avoid parking in quiet spots-ust the places thieves' love.The AA advises drives to park in places with people around-thieves don't like audiences.Paragraph 1______
A: Safe parking
B: Increase in car theft
C: Opportunities for non-professionals
D: Anti-theft organizations
E: Drivers' carelessness:a factor in promoting car stealing
F: Car stealing mostly by professional criminals答案：E解析：该段最后一句（总结句）提到司机的离车不锁车门给盔车造成很好的机会。
第二段段首句的含义为“近十多年来，汽车犯罪比其他犯罪有一个大的增长。”而B句的含义为“汽车盗窃的上升”，此句义与该段段首句的含义吻合。因此，B是合适的选择。
第三段段首句的含义为“尽管参与汽车犯罪中有职业的罪犯，但90％的汽车盗窃是由抓住机会盗窃的人干的。”而选项C中就包含了opportunity这一线索词，因此C是合适的选择。
第四段段首句的含义为“有许多其他的陷阱需要避免。”选项A说“安全停放车辆”，选项D说“反盗窃的组织”，而很容易就能在第四段中发现多处parking这样的词，依据此判断A是合适的选择。
to blame… on…含义为“把……归罪于……”，此问题句的语义为“大多数的汽车犯罪应归罪于什么”，根据做前面的题所了解的信息可知司机的不小心是诱因，所以答案是A。
在选项B、C、D、E和F这些备选答案中，big只能与选项B中increase连用，所以答案肯定是B。
