    根据文章第一段第四句“Just wait,” a neighbor counseled.”中邻居所说的“Just wait”以及第一句Every April I am troubled by the same concern可知,和15年前那个四月的下雪天初次来到缅因州时一样,作者现在来到此地时,心情低沉,担心春天不会来了。由此可知,my spirit ebbs是指“情绪低落”,ebb的意思是“(潮)退;(情绪)低落、衰退”。

  • 第14题:

    BI hated dinner parties .But I decided to give them another shot because I’m in London. And my friend Mallery invited me . And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York, “I’m having a dinner party ” means : “I’m booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can’t afford and we’ll be sharing the cheque evenly , no matter what you eat.” Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives .They’ll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more . But if try to use the same trick , the hostess will shout; “Where are you going ?” And it’s not like I can say I have somewhere to go : everyone knows I have nowhere to go.

    But in London, dinner parties are in people’s homes . Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix .The last time I went to one , the guests were from France , India ,Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations . In New York ,the mix is less striking . It’s like a gathering at Bloomingdale’s , a well-known department store.

    For New Yorkers, talking ,talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New Yorkers. But at Mallery’s , when I side that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was , In New Yorkers people would think it was a usual club.

  • 第15题:

    The author raises the question “what about pain without gain?” because ________.

    [A] he questions the truth of “no gain without pain”

    [B] he does not think the productivity revolution works

    [C] he wonders if the official statistics are misleading

    [D] he has conclusive evidence for the revival of businesses


    正确答案:B
    48. [B] 意为:他认为所谓的生产率革命并未奏效。
       第一段指出,人们常说:不劳则无所获,但是,要是劳而无获呢?美国到处都在谈论所谓公司的振兴,但是,商界自认为正在进行的所谓生产率革命究竟是否名符其实,这一点却很难确定。作者的观点在此其实已表达得很清楚。
       另外,从第三段来看,所谓的生产率革命包括了改组企业(business restructuring, reengineering)等一系列措施,正如第四段所指出的,近年所进行的一些重组措施也许并未奏效,而且,即使有所成效,效果也没有人们想像的那样广泛。在最后一段,作者引用了几个专家的评价,这几位专家对目前进行的促进生产率发展的措施更是持否定态度。作者的引用当然带有很大的倾向性,用以支持自己的观点。第一段指出,人们常说:不劳则无所获,但是,要是劳而无获呢?美国到处都在谈论所谓公司的振兴,但是,商界自认为正在进行的所谓生产率革命究竟是否名符其实,这一点却很难确定。作者的观点在此其实已表达得很清楚,就
    是说所谓的生产率革命并没起多大作用。而且由其他段也可看出,现实的数据与商人们所想的存在脱节,因此他们所鼓吹的革命并不奏效。因此联系到了 B选项    A意为:他对“不劳则无所获”的真实性提出质疑。该选择项过于局限于字面意思。该选择项过于局限于字面意思,而与作者的真正用意无关。这是一个用字面意思来迷惑考生的干扰项。
       C意为:他认为官方的统计数宁可能有错。正好相反,他们认为所谓的商业振兴仅仅是假象。联系上一道题,作者并未说官方的统计数据不符合实际。如果上道题明白的话,就会第一个排除此选项的。
       D 意为:他获得了商业振兴的确凿证据。这个选项有两个大错误。首先作者压根没说商业振兴,反而在说经济情况不如想象中的好。第二个错误是所谓的确凿证据无从说起。文章中所有的例证都是在说明“脱节”这个问题,而不是在说什么商业振兴。

    单选题
    What does the author feel about the vanishing languages throughout the world?
    A

    Concerned.

    B

    Indifferent.

    C

    Pleased.

    D

    Sympathetic.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    观点态度题。根据文中作者的选词造句判断。文中首先出现solitude,然后反问指,当面临语言消失的问题时人们所采取的措施是否见效?人们是否该失眠?这些为保存语言进行游说的人是a rare breed,后又讲到政治对语言流行的obvious threat,这些词充分体现了作者对消失的语言是非常关心的态度,故A正确,排除B、C和D。

  • 第20题:

    Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important?
    A

    It helps us understand our memory system better.

    B

    It enables us to recall something from our memory.

    C

    It expands our memory capacity considerably.

    D

    It slows down the process of losing our memory.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    细节题。第二段首句指出“Encoding ... is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later”,编码是对某件事作出注意,而这种注意是对后来回忆该事件有巨大影响的一种特定的方法,这与A项“有助于更好地理解记忆系统”不符,故排除。B项“适当编码可使我们从记忆里回忆事件”与上面的句意相符,故B为答案。

    It couldn’t be worse.

    正确答案: B
    解析:
    根据倒数第二段中间妈妈尝了学校午饭后的反应,“She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered ‘The cook must have gone mad!’”,她尝了一汤匙然后吐了出来,说“厨师一定发疯了!”说明妈妈觉得汤相当难喝,C项为正确答案。

    D

    It will help secure the future of ANWR.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    观点题。C项同义替换了文章第一段第三句内容。题干中的“think of”替换原文中的“argue”,“reduce”近义替换原文中的“ease”;boost推动,激励,增长,energy independence能源独立,暗指不从其他国家进口能源,故选C。
