相似考题
参考答案和解析
答案:D
解析:
引出定语从句的关系代词作从句的主语,而它又前指复数名词“people”,所以考虑到主谓一致谓语动词用“were”。一个名词后有“as well as”引出的短语时,单复数仍然以那个名词本身的单复数确定。此处主句主语是“Janet",单数第三人称,所以谓语用“was”。故选D。

  • 第2题:

    C

    Tens of thousands of theatre tickets will be given away to young people next year as part of a government campaign to inspire a lifelong love for theatre.

    The plan to offer free seats to people aged between 18 to 26—funded with £2.5 million of taxpayers’ money—was announced yesterday by Andy Burnham, the Culture Secretary. It received a cautious welcome from some in the arts world, who expressed concern that the tickets may not reach the most underprivileged.

    The plan comes as West End theatres are enjoying record audiences, thanks largely to musicals teaming up with television talent shows. Attendances reached. 13.6 million in 2007, up 10 percent on 2006, itself a record year. Total sales were up 18 percent on 2006 to almost £470 million.

    One theatre source criticised the Government’s priorities(优先考虑的事) in funding free tickets when pensioners were struggling to buy food and fuel, saying: “I don’t know why the Government’s wasting money on this. The Yong Vic, as The Times reported today, offers excellent performances at cheap prices.”

    There was praise for the Government’s plan from Dominic Cooke of the Royal Court Theatre, who said: “I support any move to get young people into theatre, and especially one that aims to do it all over England, not just in London.”

    Ninety-five publicly funded theatres could apply for funding under the two-year plan. In return, they will offer free tickets on at least one day each week to 18 to 26-year-olds, first-come, first-served. It is likely to be on Mondays, traditionally a quiet night for the theatre.

    Mr. Burnham said: “A young person attending the theatre can find it an exciting experience, and be inspired to explore a new world. But sometimes people miss out on it because they fear it’s ‘not for them’. It’s time to change this perception.”

    Jeremy Hunt, the Shadow Culture Secretary, said: “The real issue is not getting enthusiastic children into the theatre, but improving arts education so that more young people want to go in the first place. For too many children theatres are a no-go area.”

    46. Critics of the plan argued that ______.

    A. the theatres would be overcrowded

    B. it would be a waste of money

    C. pensioners wouldn’t get free tickets

    D. the government wouldn’t be able to afford it


    正确答案:B

    The Writing's on the Wall?

    Is it art or is it just vandalism(故意破坏公共财物罪)?Well, it's still a crime ,but graffiti(涂鸦)has
    changed since the days of spraying your name on a wall to mark your territory.Street art has become much
    more sophisticated since a 17-year-old called Demetrius started spraying his"tag",TAKI 183,all over the
    New York underground in 1971,and hip-hop culture was born.Hip-hop is a mixture of art,music,dancing,
    poetry,language and fashion.It came from 'young inner-city people,who felt left out by their richer classmates
    and who were desperate to express themselves in any way they could.
    An experiment to control the spread of graffiti in Rochdale,Greater Manchester,has been so successful
    that plans have been made by local street artists for an international convention in June."We're planning to
    get people together from different countries like France and Germany for a week,"says Liam,one of the
    organizers. The scheme started in 2000,and has attracted people of all age groups and both sexes."We all
    share a common interest and get on really well with each other."The first site to be chosen was a subway.
    "Before we began,people were afraid to use the subway.We had it cleaned up,and now,with all the artists
    hanging out down there,people are using it again.People can relate to graffiti much more now."By providing
    places to display their talents legally,there has been a fall in the amount of"tagging"on people's private
    property.
    Street artist Temper developed his drawing skills at a young age.In art classes at school he was really
    frustrated because the art teachers didn't spend time with him. They thought he was already very good at art
    and so spent more time with other students.So,at 12 years old,Temper started painting with all these guys
    he'd hooked up with and who were about 22 years old.He looked up to them and loved what they were doing
    on the streets of Wolverhampton,England."The whole hip-hop scene was built up of different things and I
    did a bit of everything. But it was always the graffiti I was best at."he says.

    Demetrius was a teenager from New York.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    短文第一段说到他是一名青少年,但是没有证据显示他来自于纽约,因此,该判断在文中没有提到。
    短文第二段第三句提到,这一计划是针对所有年龄的人们,而不只是青少年,所以该判 断错误。
    短文第二段提到在有组织的涂鸦艺术家们集中在地铁涂鸦之前,人们害怕搭乘地铁,但是文中没有说到人们是否喜欢乘坐地铁。
    短文第二段最后一句提到自从该计划实施以来,由于给艺术家们提供了展示他们作品 的场所,在居民的私人房产上涂鸦的现象有所减少。由此可知,城里的墙上还是有涂鸦的,只是数量减少了而已。
    短文第三段第四句说到泰普12岁时和其他艺术家一起开始绘画,他们比他年长大约10岁。
    短文最后一段提到作为一名涂鸦艺术家,泰普敬佩并喜欢上了英国Wolverhampton的艺术家们,并没有说他现在是涂鸦俱乐部的负责人。
    短文最后一段提到他参与了有关嘻哈文化的各种活动,因此,该判断正确。

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

    答案:D
    解析:
    由于上文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。本句话的意思是“当你用同样的钱买到比以前少的东西时,通货膨胀就发生了”, 因此选D。
    根据句子关系和词语提示,本句上半句中的“fewer”可作提示词,“less”是 “little”的比较形式,与“fewer”相配。下句中的“your money buys 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”与相应的名词搭配使用表示 “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”。
    根据上下文和逻辑关系,这里需要一个表示“最大”含义的词。本句话的意思是为“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。本句话的意思是“不再工作的老年人在通货膨胀时期要靠工资满足需求”,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。本句话的意思是“退休金和其他固定的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”。本句话的意思是“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
    “stop”后面接动名词表示“不再做某事”,这句话的意思是“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”。本句话的意思是“甚至对于那些有工作,工资在上涨的人来说,通货膨胀也是一个问题”。
    根据词语搭配和上下文意思,选“cost:成本”,本句话的意思是“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”同含义。本句话的意思是 “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,本句话的意思是“政府机构收集经济生活中的价格信息,将它发布为消费指数,通过这样比率的变化就可以确定”。因此选C。
    "given”在这里指“给定的,一定的”,符合题目要求。本句话的意思是“通过特定一年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“百分比,percentage"。本句话的意思是 “其他物价按照这个基数成为一个百分比数字”。
    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”。本句话的意思是“消费指数能够将某种商品的目前价格与往年的价格做比较”。

    Practice 3  The United States is a federal union of 50 states. The District of Columbia is the seat of the national government. The Constitution outlines the structure of the national government and specifies its powers and activities. Other governmental activities are the responsibilities of the individual states, which have their own constitutions and laws. Within each state are counties, townships, cities and villages, each of which has its own elective government.  All government in the United States is “of, by and for the people”. Members of Congress, the President, state officials, and those who govern counties and cities are elected by popular vote. Heads of federal departments are named by the President, and judges are either elected directly by the people or are appointed by elected officials. Voting ballots are unsigned and marked by the voters in private booths so that no one else can find out for whom a citizen is voting. Public officials may be removed from office for failing to perform their duties properly as well as for serious violations of law.

  • 第14题:

    40 years ago the idea of disabled people doing sport was never heard of. But when the annual games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change.
    Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had
    been asked by the British government to set up an injuries center at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sport for the disabled.
    In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings, things have developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are organized separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games, 1064 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part.
    Unfortunately, they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.
    TheGameshavebeenagreatsuccessinpromotinginternationalfriendshipandunderstanding, and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport. One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at Olympic Games for the able-bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be excluded.
    In Paragraph 3, the underlined word "athletes" means__________.

    A.people who support the games
    B.people who watch the games
    C.people who organize the games
    D.people who compete in the games

    答案:D
    解析:
    由第三段“In the l984 wheelchair Olympic Games,1064 wheelchair athletes from about 40countries took part."可知,参加轮椅残奥会的athletes应是指运动员,故选D。

    frustrated because the art teachers didn't spend time with him. They thought he was already very good at art
    and so spent more time with other students.So,at 12 years old,Temper started painting with all these guys
    he'd hooked up with and who were about 22 years old.He looked up to them and loved what they were doing
    on the streets of Wolverhampton,England."The whole hip-hop scene was built up of different things and I
    did a bit of everything. But it was always the graffiti I was best at."he says.

    Most of the other graffiti artists in England were about ten years older than Temper.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    短文第一段说到他是一名青少年,但是没有证据显示他来自于纽约,因此,该判断在文中没有提到。
    短文第二段第三句提到,这一计划是针对所有年龄的人们,而不只是青少年,所以该判 断错误。
    短文第二段提到在有组织的涂鸦艺术家们集中在地铁涂鸦之前,人们害怕搭乘地铁,但是文中没有说到人们是否喜欢乘坐地铁。
    短文第二段最后一句提到自从该计划实施以来,由于给艺术家们提供了展示他们作品 的场所,在居民的私人房产上涂鸦的现象有所减少。由此可知,城里的墙上还是有涂鸦的,只是数量减少了而已。
    短文第三段第四句说到泰普12岁时和其他艺术家一起开始绘画,他们比他年长大约10岁。
    短文最后一段提到作为一名涂鸦艺术家,泰普敬佩并喜欢上了英国Wolverhampton的艺术家们,并没有说他现在是涂鸦俱乐部的负责人。
    短文最后一段提到他参与了有关嘻哈文化的各种活动,因此,该判断正确。
