  • 第5题:

    Passage Two There are about 5,000 different kinds of ladybugs in the world. They come in many different colors. Their bright colors warn other animals or insects not to eat them. Ladybugs taste bad. A bird or a frog that eats a ladybug will remember the bright colors and it will not eat another ladybug with the same colors again. When ladybugs are in danger, they will give out a fluid (液体) that tastes terrible. In many cultures, the ladybug is considered to be a symbol of good luck. Most ladybugs are kind to humans. They eat other insects which destroy crops. One ladybug can eat up to 5,000 insets in its lifetime. Ladybugs have six short legs. They live in many different places, including green lands, forests, cities, the countryside and along rivers. Different ladybugs have different spots (点). Some of them don’t have spots at all. The most common kind in North America is the 7-spotted ladybug. The 7-spotted ladybugs are the most active from spring to autumn.

    Time is very important in our lives.It organizes our everyday moments.However,time never had any importance in my life until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
    It came from Denmark to the U.A.E.jewelry shop in a gray box.It weighs 0.24 kilograms. It's round in the center with two silver bands that go around my wrist.And all of it is made of silver. This object tells me the importance of time in my life.
    I received this gift on a gray-sky day.I had to go to the airport at 9:00 AM to pick up my uncle Aui and take him to my father's house.However,I was late because I was hanging out with my friends.Later on that day,around 11:00 AM,I remembered my uncle,but I was very late for him. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father's house.
    I got to my father's house at 2:00 PM on the same day and looked at my angry father's face.I felt ashamed of myself at that moment.After I said hi to my angry father and tired uncle,my father asked me to sit next to him where he handed me this watch which was a gift from him.Then he said,"Essa,did you have fun with your friends today?"I answered, "Yes,father,and I'm sorry about not picking up my uncle Ali."He said,"What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry for your actions."I was ashamed and said,"Father,I'll never do it again.I promise."He said,"I hope today you learned something important,and this watch will be a reminder for you." He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.
    I learned a very important lesson from my father:to respect time and never be late to get someone.This watch is important to me,not because of its price,but because of the lesson that I learned from it.

    I felt ashamed of myself and my action when I saw my angry father and tired uncle.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    根据是文中第一段第三句话:但是,以前时间在我的生命中并不重要,直到我从父亲那里收到一块手表,这块手表帮助我安排我的生活而且使我变得更加有责任感。
    根据是第二段第一句:这块丹麦制造的手表装在一只灰色盒子里,是在阿拉伯联合酋长国的一家珠宝首饰店买的。
    第三段第三句:可是因为和朋友们出去玩,我迟到了。可见作者不是因为做作业而迟到。
    根据是第四段第二句:那一刻我感到很惭愧。
    文中对此没有提到。
    依据是第四段最后一句:他让我拿走这块手表,用它来安排自己的生活。
    依据是最后一段最后一句:这块手表对我来说很重要,不是因为它价格昂贵,而是因为我从中学习到的这个道理。

  • 第11题:

    According to SustainAbility, what is the reason for the appearance of so many different definitions for globalization?
    A

    There’s no authoritative definition for globalization.

    B

    Others’ definitions are more convincing than professor Levitt’s.

    C

    Different people have different ideas on globalization.

    D

    Things are different after two decades’ time.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    细节题。由题干关键词SustainAbility可定位到文章第三段。本段中冒号后的内容意为:正是由于Levitt没能在其文章中对全球化给出令人信服的定义,因而造成了后来大量定义的出现,即选项A所表述的内容,而不是选项B(别人的定义更令人信服),或是选项C(不同的人对此持有的看法也不同)。从1983年Levitt发表文章预测到这一现象到2007年SustainAbility提到对市场全球化缺乏统一的定义,其间虽然经历了二十年之久,但这并不是出现大量不同定义的原因,故排除[D]。综上所述,本题答案为A项。
