    [C]房价将来可能从2006年年中的高峰下降28%[
    D]更多取消抵押品赎回权的房屋因为房价走低被抛弃
    答案解析:[C]推理判断题。根据第五段可知,第一,2006年年中的房价是高峰;第二,全国范围的房价已经下降了18%;第三,虽然房价已经降价18%,但是可能会继续下跌10%;第四,房价继续下跌是因为大量持续不断的取消抵押品赎回权的房屋被抛向市场从而压低了房价。[A]把将来要跌的l0%算作现在已经跌的,排除;[B]、[D]把取消抵押品赎回权的房屋抛向市场误解为房主抛弃了这些房屋,排除。所以正确答案是[C]。

  • 第6题:

    资料:Virgin America helped Airbus pip Boeing at the post to retain its crown as the world’s largest commercial plane maker.
    Airbus trailed its arch-rival Boeing in number of orders for most of 2010 but moved ahead after a flurry of sales at the end of the year. At the end of December, Virgin America, Richard Branson’s upstart US airline, ordered 30 of the updated version of Airbus’s A320 model. Airbus has promised the A320 with the new engine option will cut fuel consumption and carbon emissions by 15% compared with the existing models, figures disputed by Boeing and some analysts. The $5.1nd(£ 3.2nd) contract was the first order for the updated airplanes.
    The Virgin deal capped a year when Airbus took orders for 644 airplanes worth $84nd at list price. Boeing won 625 gross orders with a list price of $70nd. It was held back by delays to its 787 Dreamliner.
    Both Airbus and Boeing are recovering strongly from an industry recession that saw combined demand for their planes fall by more than two-thirds in 2009. White there were still dozens of plane cancellations in 2010, and both firms have struggled with delays, Airbus secured more than twice the number of airplane orders in 2010 that it had anticipated.
    Tom Enders, chief executive, said:”2010 has been better than we expected. We will look at 2011 more optimistically. Growth, especially in aviation, is back, and this is largely due to emerging markets. Asia, the Middle East, that’s certainly been the focus.”
    Last week Airbus announced a $16nd deal with Indigo for 180 airplanes, the largest single order for aircraft in commercial aviation history. The order includes 30 of Airbus’s original A320 single-aisle jets and 150 with Airbus’s new engine-option A320s.
    Airbus delivered more planes than its US rival for the eighth consecutive year. Its total of 510 deliveries, up from 498 in 2009, topped the 500 mark for the first time at Airbus. Last year the company sold its 10,000th plane in its 40-year history Boeing deliveries fell by 4% to 462 airplanes from 481.
    John Leahy, Airbus sales chief, said: “There figures show the economy is improving. We have dodged the bullet on a double-dip recession. Aviation is growing again because of Asia, low-cost carriers emerging markets. The only negative on the horizon is the fuel price.”

    According to Airbus, the updated version of its A320 model is different from the original model in that________.

    A.it has multiple options when it comes to its engine
    B.it is a single-aisle jet
    C.it is more fuel-efficient and environmental-friendly
    D.it has a more powerful engine

    Some Things We Know About Language
    Many things about language are a mystery,and many will always remain so.But some things we do know.
    First,we know that all human beings have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language,no set of speech sounds by which the people communicate with one another. Furthermore,in historical times,there has never been a race of men without a language.
    Second,there is no such thing as a primitive language.There are many people whose cultures are undeveloped,who are,as we say,uncivilized,but the languages they speak are not primitive .In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing.
    This has not always been well understood;indeed,the direct contrary has often been stated.
    Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate.Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises.Study has proved this to be nonsense .There are,or were,hundreds of American Indian languages,and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old.They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with,but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.
    A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.
    Finally,we know that language changes.It is natural and normal for language to change;the only languages which do not change are the dead ones.This is easy to understand if we look backward in time.Change goes on in all aspects of language.Grammatical teatures change as do speech sounds,and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rap-idly. Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language.

    In the second paragraph the passage tells us that______.
    A: some backward race doesn't have a language of its own
    B: some race in history didn't possess a language of its own
    C: any human race,whether backward or not,has a language
    D: some races on earth can communicate without language

    答案:C
    解析:
    作者在第二段中认为,任何人种不管落后与否都有语言。文中的原句是:There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language…


    此题的答案来自第三段。


    作者列举美国印第安人的语言的目的是证明这些语言和一些著名的语言一样先进。原句是:They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with,but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.


    根据第五段“That is,each one… who speak the language.”可知,B项正确。


    词汇是语言中最容易发生变化的部分。文中的原句是:Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language.

  • 第13题:

    From the third paragraph, we may infer that_____.

    [C] musicians pay more attention to the preservation of traditional music

    [D] the more developed a culture, the more valuable the music it has fostered


    正确答案:A

     本题考查推理引申。第三段第二句提到,我们(we)越来越关注民乐中的传统和民族特色,并且在对待许多传统文化遗产时愿意将民乐保存下来。第三句以音乐家记录自己国家的古典音乐为例说明上文。该句中we包括了作者本人,因此可推知[A]是作者所赞同的观点。[C]错在more,因为文中并没有将音乐家对待传统音乐和现代音乐的态度作对比。该段末句提到,人们(people)总是渴望保留个性特色,而不是找到所有文化共有的普遍特点。可见,文中只是客观叙述人们对文化的偏好,没有贬低“文化共有的普遍特点”的价值。排除[B]。该段首句提到,音乐根植于孕育了它的文化之中。这说明文化决定音乐的特色,与“发达”或“价值”没有关联,排除[D]。

    问答题
    Practice 5  Dell says the problem is that it dropped prices too much. But deeper, more threatening forces are also now at play.  The first is the resurgence of rivals, which have caught up with Dell’s low price model. By driving prices down, Dell has unintentionally cut costs for its rivals too. “The supply chain has become as standardized as the components—the money has been wrung out,” explains an expert. Dell, by not working through retail outlets, is still more efficient, but the cost benefits that this once brought have been whittled away.  The second factor hurting Dell is that growth in the computer business is coming from the consumer market and emerging countries rather than the corporate market, in which Dell sells around 85% of its machines. Increasing sales to consumers is difficult for Dell because individuals tend to want to see and touch computers before buying them. They also like to be able to return the machine easily if it breaks. Dell’s lack of retail presence, once ballyhooed as a benefit, has turned into grave disadvantage.  A third problem facing Dell is its exclusive use of Intel chips rather than lower-priced ones made by Intel’s sworn rivals, AMD. This arrangement lets Dell buy chips inexpensively and benefit from Intel’s generous co-marketing programmes. But it has started to harm Dell’s sales for higher margin computer servers.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    戴尔表示问题在于降价过度,但从更深的层面来看,有其他的因素正威胁着它。
    首先是竞争对手的重新崛起,他们的产品已与戴尔的廉价型号旗鼓相当。戴尔的降价无意中也帮助了对手降低成本。“供应链的每一个环节的标准都是统一的——固然资金被节省了出来。”专家解释道,“戴尔不走零售渠道,这使得它的效率高出不少,但这所带来的成本降低并未起到实质性的作用。”
    重创戴尔的第二个因素在于,电脑业增长的来源是个体消费市场和新兴国家,但戴尔85%的电脑都销至公司团体。增加个体消费者的购买量对戴尔来说十分困难,因为个人消费者在购买前都希望看到并试用电脑样品。他们也希望当电脑出现故障时可以较方便地退还电脑。戴尔一度自吹自己的产品不上零售柜台带来的莫大的好处,而如今看来却成为重大缺陷。
    戴尔所面临的第三个问题是戴尔专用因特尔芯片,而因特尔的死敌——AMD生产的芯片廉价得多。虽然戴尔可以因此以并不昂贵的价格购买芯片并享有因特尔大方的市场捆绑营销计划,但是戴尔却丧失了盈利更大的服务器市场。
