    答案：F
    解析：
    段落中出现了明显的段落主题词talk(talk贯穿该段出现），依据这个段落主题词可轻松判断出答案应该来自E和F这两个选项中。第二段中的第一个句子是观点句，该句意为 “英国的特长是有说话的天赋”。这个意义意义正好与E'‘说话的天赋”一致。该段的写作结构为“观点句（主题句）＋解释说明（接下来的句子具体说明说话天赋在经济中的表现）”。
    该段没有明显的段落主题词，段首句只是事实陈述句，不是观点句，也就不是该段的主题句。对于该段落只能通过大致理解段落主要意思来归纳出主题。该段讲述英国是著名作家Shakespeare和Wordsworth.的故乡，“他1IJ以次央国的摇艰尔团创造了大量的精神财富，也为英国赚得了大量的钱，显示了创造性经济的力量。因此C“创造性经济的实力”是答案。
    第四段的第一个句子是转折句（提示：段首出现的转折句常是段落主题句）, 该句意为“然而，创造性行业的商品和服务出口只占整个英国出口量的4%左右”，由此可见创造性经济还是很薄弱的。因此答案为D“创造性经济的弱点”。
    第五段的第一个句子是主题句In fact, it might be better to call Britain a “servant” economy一there are at least 4 million people “in service”。该句意为“实际上，把英国的经济叫做服务经济更恰当一些——因为至少有四百万人在做服务性工作”。因此选B“服务经济”。提示：如果概括大意的选项中出现正反意义选项，如本题中的选项C“创造性经济的强项”和D “创造性经济的弱点”，则这两个选项中必然至少有一个是答案选项，而另一个形成对比意义的选项作为答案出现的可能性也较大，因为英文短文中常出现两个形成对比意义的段落，如：过去情况与现在情况的对比；强项（优点）和弱点（缺点）的对比等。
    虽然可以利用题干中的名词短语every country, own way作为定位线索，但是对于该题却不容易依据定位线索识别出相关句。这种情况在职称英语考试中较少见，该题的相关句在第一段。第一段讲到了在今天的知识经济时代，各个国家靠自己的强项得以生存。因此C“养活自己的人民”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语British government作为定位线索，在第二段中找到相关句 But can all this talking keep the British economy going? The British government thinks it can，相关句意为“说话能让英国经济持续发展吗？英国政府认为可以。”依据相关句的内容不难看出英国政府似乎并不担心英国经济。因此选项F“担心英国经济”是答案。

    该段没有明显的段落主题词，段首句只是事实陈述句，不是观点句，也就不是该段的主题句。对于该段落只能通过大致理解段落主要意思来归纳出主题。该段讲述英国是著名作家Shakespeare和Wordsworth.的故乡，“他1IJ以次央国的摇艰尔团创造了大量的精神财富，也为英国赚得了大量的钱，显示了创造性经济的力量。因此C“创造性经济的实力”是答案。
    第四段的第一个句子是转折句（提示：段首出现的转折句常是段落主题句）, 该句意为“然而，创造性行业的商品和服务出口只占整个英国出口量的4%左右”，由此可见创造性经济还是很薄弱的。因此答案为D“创造性经济的弱点”。
    第五段的第一个句子是主题句In fact, it might be better to call Britain a “servant” economy一there are at least 4 million people “in service”。该句意为“实际上，把英国的经济叫做服务经济更恰当一些——因为至少有四百万人在做服务性工作”。因此选B“服务经济”。提示：如果概括大意的选项中出现正反意义选项，如本题中的选项C“创造性经济的强项”和D “创造性经济的弱点”，则这两个选项中必然至少有一个是答案选项，而另一个形成对比意义的选项作为答案出现的可能性也较大，因为英文短文中常出现两个形成对比意义的段落，如：过去情况与现在情况的对比；强项（优点）和弱点（缺点）的对比等。
    虽然可以利用题干中的名词短语every country, own way作为定位线索，但是对于该题却不容易依据定位线索识别出相关句。这种情况在职称英语考试中较少见，该题的相关句在第一段。第一段讲到了在今天的知识经济时代，各个国家靠自己的强项得以生存。因此C“养活自己的人民”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语British government作为定位线索，在第二段中找到相关句 But can all this talking keep the British economy going? The British government thinks it can，相关句意为“说话能让英国经济持续发展吗？英国政府认为可以。”依据相关句的内容不难看出英国政府似乎并不担心英国经济。因此选项F“担心英国经济”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语“creative industries”作为定位线索，在第四段中找到相关句The industries（指creative industries) are finding it hard（与题干中的形容词 difficult呼应）to make a profit, according to a report of the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts，相关句表明英国创造性的行业很难盈利。因此答案为E“盈利”。
    利用题干中的名词短语many graduates作为定位线索，在第五段中找到相关句Many graduates are even doing menial jobs for which they do not need a degree，相关句意为“许多毕业生甚至在做不需要学位的卑微的工作”。因此B“做低技能的工作”是答案。

    答案：B
    解析：
    段落中出现了明显的段落主题词talk(talk贯穿该段出现），依据这个段落主题词可轻松判断出答案应该来自E和F这两个选项中。第二段中的第一个句子是观点句，该句意为 “英国的特长是有说话的天赋”。这个意义意义正好与E'‘说话的天赋”一致。该段的写作结构为“观点句（主题句）＋解释说明（接下来的句子具体说明说话天赋在经济中的表现）”。
    该段没有明显的段落主题词，段首句只是事实陈述句，不是观点句，也就不是该段的主题句。对于该段落只能通过大致理解段落主要意思来归纳出主题。该段讲述英国是著名作家Shakespeare和Wordsworth.的故乡，“他1IJ以次央国的摇艰尔团创造了大量的精神财富，也为英国赚得了大量的钱，显示了创造性经济的力量。因此C“创造性经济的实力”是答案。

    In today's knowledge economy,nations survive on the things they do best. The Japanese design electronics while Germens export engineering techniques.The French serve the best food and Americans make computers.
    Britain specializes in the gift of talking.The nation doesn't manufacture much of anything.
    But it has lawyers,stylists and business consultants who earn their living from talk,talk and more talk. The World Foundation think tank says the UK's four iconic（标志性的）jobs today are not scientists,engineers,teachers and nurses.Instead,they're hairdressers,celebrities,management consultants and managers .But can all this talking keep the British economy going?The
    British government thinks it can.
    Although the country's trade deficit was more than￡60 billion in 2006,UK's largest in the postwar period,officials say the country has nothing to worry about.In fact,Britain does have a world-class pharmaceutical（制药的）industry , and it still makes a small sum from selling arms abroad.

    The officials are not worried about the trade deficit in 2006,because they believe_______.
    A: Britain is on the cutting edge of the knowledge economy
    B: the literary tradition of Britain will help make billions of pounds
    C: Britain is home to the largest pharmaceutical industry in the world
    D: the world economy is strong enough to carry the Britain economy

    答案：A
    解析：
    由第二段第四、五句“The World Foundation think tank says the UK's four iconic（标志性的）jobs today are not scientists, engineers, teachers and nurses. Instead, they're hairdressers, celebrities, management consultants and managers.”可知如今英国的四大标志性的职业不是科学家、工程师、教师和护士，而是发型师、名流显要、管理顾问和商业经理。四个选项中只有C（商业顾问）符合题意，故选C。


    由第三段第四句“The government believes Britain is on the cutting edge of the knowl-edge economy.”可知英国政府认为英国有着最先进的知识经济。由此不难推出，“the cutting edge”的意思是“最先进的”，故选D。


    题干中的“they”指的是前一分句中的官方“ officials”。由第三段第四句“The gov-ernment believes Britain is on the cutting edge of the knowledge economy.”可知，官方认为英国正处于知识经济的前沿，所以不担心2006年的贸易赤字。故选A。


    由第四段最后一句中的“only 38 percent of British companies were engaged in‘innova-tion activities' ,3 percentage points below the EU average”可知，英国只有38％的企业在进行有关创新的工作，比欧盟的平均水平要低三个百分点。由此推断，英国的创新工作没有欧洲其他国家做得好。故选D。


    由第二段最后两句“But can all this talking keep the British economy going? The British government thinks it can.”可以推断，英国政府在经济上过于自信了。故选C。
