3.Passage FourDressing fashionably was very important in fourteenth-century Spain. This was especially true for any man who considered himself an aristocrat or dandy. Before going out, a well-dressed man would put on his finest boots, one of his embroidered caps and his favorite beard, dyed to match the color of his clothing.Believe it or not, false beards were once as popular as neckties are today. Beards had for years considered a sign of strength and manhood, and the bigger and thicker they were, the better. Those unfortunates who had little facial hair were forced by custom into wearing false beards made of horsehair. Soon, however man in the Spanish fashion world was wearing them too, while many quite substantial real beards were shaved off to make way for the false variety.By day, the fashionable dandy might wear a yellow or a crimson beard to impress his friends, but in the evening a long black beard was proper for serenading his senorita, Any color or shape of beard could be had.However, as you can imagine, the growth of this unusual custom created many interesting problems. People with similar beards were mistaken for one another. Creditors could not find debtors, and police often arrested the wrong people, while the real villain escaped wearing their hairy disguises. The price of horsehair skyrocketed. Finally, King Philip IV of Aragon put a stop to all the foolishness by outlawing the wearing of false beards.46. What is the passage mostly concerned with?A. The size of beards.B. The color of beards.C. Varieties of false beards.D. The custom of wearing false beards.

    [试题分析]细节判断题。
    [详细解答]在文章第一、二段,作者探讨了离婚增多的原因。他认为,社会的纵容、放任(permissiveness)使人们产生了不切实际的幻想,人们不愿做出婚姻需要夫妻双方所做出的牺牲,只想放纵自己。婚姻需要夫妻双方做出牺牲,需要他们在某些方面的自我约束(self—discipline),而不能靠冲动行事。可见,作者认为离婚的主要原因是人们缺乏内在的自制(internal restraints)。

    _________(57)
    A:live up to
    B:catch up on
    C:put up with
    D:keep up with

    答案:D
    解析:
    文章说到通货膨胀是一个“阶段”,因此这里需要填写一个表示时间的关联词。本句意思是“当你用同样的钱数买到的东西比以前少的时候,通货膨胀就发生了”。因止匕选D。
    根据句子关系和词语提示进行判断。本句上半句中的fewer可作提示词, less是little的比较形式,与fewer相对应。下句中的your money buyes less是更直接的提示。因此选D。
    根据词语搭配和上下文线索提示。介词in与相应的名词裕配使用表示 “在……方面增长或减少”。本段第二句有类似的表达that causes rapid rises in prices。
    根据上下文意思和词语逻辑,这里需要一个表示“最大”含义的词。本句意思是“依赖固定收入的人受影响最大”。因此选C。
    根据词语习惯搭配。meet one's needs“满足需要”。此处的意思是“不再工作的老年人在通货膨胀时期要想退休金满足生活需求”。因此选A。
    根据句子的逻辑。retirement income属于fixed income, or连接两个前后表达属于同类范畴的词。本句意思是“退休金和其他固定收入通常没有物价上涨得快”。因此选A。
    根据上下文含义和句子逻辑,本句需要填一个表示“跟上”的词,因此要选keep up with。本句意思是“很多退休的人必须削减一些开支来跟上上涨的物价”。因此选D。
    根据上下文意思和词语用法,stop后面接动名词表示“不再做某事”,本句意思是“很多情况下他们不再买一些生活必需品”。因此选B。
    根据语法逻辑,本句是状语部分前置,正常语序是:Inflation can be a problem even for working people whose incomes are going up.for指“对于……来说”。本句意思是 “甚至对于那些有工作,工资也在上涨的人来说,通货膨胀也是一个问题”。
    根据词语搭配和上下文意思,应选cost“成本”。本句意思是“生活成本上升了,工作的人们必须花更多的钱保证自己的生活质量”。
    keep pace with指“跟上”,与keep up with同义。本句意思是“当工资和物价上涨不同步时,生活质量就下降”。因此选B。
    此空填的是由from加which引导的定语从句,本句意思是“政府机构收集经济生活中的价格信息,以消费指数形式发布,由此,比率的变化就可以确定”。因此选B。
    given在这里指“给定的,一定的”,符合题目要求。本句意思是“将特定年份的价格作为基数就可以衡量物价的变化”。
    根据词语搭配和上下文线索选percentage“百分比”。本句意思是“其他物价按照这个基数形成一个百分比数字”。
    根据语法原则选it , it在这里是形式宾语,代替不定式“to compare current prices of typical consumer goods with prices of the same goods in previous years"。本句意思是“消费指数能够将某种商品的目前价格与往年的做比较”。
