It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public. Its primary duty is to protect places of great natural beauty and places of historical interest. The attention of the public was the first drawn to the dangers threatening the great old houses and the castles of Britain by the death of the Lord Lothian, who left his great seventeenth-century house to the Trust together with the 4500-acre park and estate surrounding it. This gift attracted wide publicity and started the Trust’s “Country House Scheme” Under this scheme, with the help of the Government and the general public, the Trust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about 150 of these oil houses. Last year, about 1.75 million people paid to visit these historic houses, usually at a very small charge. In addition to country houses and open spaces, the Trust now owns some examples of ancient wind and water mills, nature reserves, 540 farms and nearly 2500 cottages or small village houses, as well as some complete villages. In these villages no one is allowed to build, develop or disturb the old village environment in any way and all the houses are maintained in their original 16th century style. Over 4,000 acres of coastline , woodland, and hill country are protected by the Trust and no development or disturbances of any kind are permitted. The public has free access to these areas and is only asked to respect the peace, beauty and wildlife. Over the past 80 years the Trust has become a big and important organization and an essential and respected part of national life.

本题考查根据上下文选择恰当的词。空格处的名词作定语,修饰authority。本文一开始就提到罗马人关于国家理论的形成(Roman theorizing about the state)。文中多次出现了关键词state。因此可推知,空格部分涉及的是应是“国家权力”。state authority是表达“国家权力”的习惯搭配,一般不用countrypeoplenational authority常表示“民族权力机构”。

The National Trust is dedicated to________
A:preserving the best public enjoyment
B:providing the public with free access to historic buildings
C:offering better services to visitors home and abroad
D:protecting the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings

答案:D
解析:
本文主要讲述了英国非盈利性组织Trust(国家托管委员会)对英国未遭破坏的乡村和历乡上著名建筑的保护,使人们能够通过参观和游览这些地方领略英国的历史和文化传统。
由文章第一段第三句和第四句话“It is a voluntary association of people...It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public.”可知,Trust是英国的非盈利性组织……它是-个慈善机构,靠公众自愿支持它才得以生存。故选B。
由文章第-段第-句、第三句和最后-句话可知,Trust的主要职责是保护英国保存完好的乡村遗迹和具有历史意义的建筑。故选D。
由文章第二段Lord Lothian 去世后,把他名下的17世纪的房子、城堡、公园以及周围的庄园捐献给Trust,此事大大地吸引了公众的注意力,同时使Trust开始实行“乡村房屋计划”,可以推测出Lord Lothian 在他所生活的时代具有-定的影响力。故选D。
由文章第二段最后-句话可知选项B说法正确,由文章第三段最后-句话可知选项C说法正确,由文章最后一段第-句话可知选项D说法正确。从文章中无法推断Trust在保护16世纪的房子方面更感兴趣。故选A。
由文章最后-段中“…but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search of a great historic and cultural heritage.”可知,每年涌入英国的数百万游客能领略到英国的历史和文化传统。"invade”在这里是“涌入”的意思。故选C。

The National Trust in Britain plays an increasingly important part in the preservation for public enjoyment of the best that is left unspoiled of the British countryside.Although the Trust has received practical and moral support from the Government,it is not rich Government department.It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public.
The attention of the public was first drawn to the dangers threatening the great old houses and castles of Britain by the death of Lord Lothian,who left his great seventeenth-century house to the Trust together with the 4,500-acre park and estate surrounding it. This gift attracted wide publicity and started the Trust's"Country House Scheme".Under this scheme,with the help of the Government and the general public,the Trust has been able to save and open to the public about one hundred and fifty of these old houses.Last year about one and three quarters of a million people paid to visit these historic houses,usually at a very small charge.
In addition to country houses and open spaces,the Trust now owns some examples of ancient wind and water mills,nature reserves,five hundred and forty farms and nearly two thousand five hundred cottages or small village houses,as well as some complete villages.In these villages no one is allowed to build,develop or disturb the old village environment in any way and all the houses are maintained in their original sixteenth-century style.Over four hundred thousand acres of coastline, woodland,and hill country are protected by the Trust and no development or disturbance of any kind are permitted.The public has free access to these areas and is only asked to respect the peace, beauty and wildlife.
So it is that over the past eighty years the Trust has become a big important organization and an essential and respected part of national life,preserving all that is of great natural beauty and of historical significance not only for future generations of Britons but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search of a great historical and cultural heritage.

The main purpose of this passage is to__________.
A:inform the readers about the National Trust
B:promote the National Trust' membership
C:make people aware of the nature beauty of Britain
D:let the general public share the views of the National Trust

答案:A
解析:
事实细节题。从文章第一段最后一句可找到答案。选项A显然与原文意思相反,选项C和D则无原文依据。
推理判断题。第二段第二句表明罗西亚勋爵捐赠了他的房产后,这个计划才启动起来,因此选项C正确,也由此可以否定选项A。根据第二段最后两句可知这个计划是为了保护具有历史价值的房子,而不仅仅是为了保护罗西亚勋爵的房子,因此选项D不对。
事实细节题。最后一段从preserving开始的部分指出了本题的答案。第三段倒数第二句中的“…no development or disturbances of any kind are permitted.”可帮助排除选项A,选项C内容不完整,选项D中的限制词primarily使用不妥,无原文依据。
词义推断题。由invade所在的文章最后一句“.for the millions of tourists who each year invade...”可知这是托管会保护自然美景和历史圣地的原因所在。从而可推断出invade强调来英国游玩的游客数量之多,因此选项C为正确答案。
主旨大意题。综观全文可发现the National Trust和the Trust在文章开头以及文中反复出现。本文是一篇说明文,主要目的是介绍 the National Trust的机构性质及其功能,因此选项A正确。文章未讨论托管会的成员问题,因此选项B不正确。最后两段虽然提到英国的景色很美,但这并非文章的主要思想,因此选项C不对。本题最具干扰性的是选项 D,但是本文并不是一篇议论文,其目的不是让读者认同其中的观点,文章更多的是用说明性的语言来说明托管会的一些做法。

第8题:

Questions 61-65 are based on Passage Two:

Passage Two

As the 21st century begins, a number of leaders in politics, education, and other professions believe that the US must adopt some new values to go along with the old traditional ones. What new values should Americans adopt? This is a very difficult question to answer. Certainly, a greater value should be placed on the conservation of natural reasources; Americans should learn to use less and waste less. But conservation has never been a strong value to Americans, who have believed that their country offered an endless,abundant supply of natural resources.

Recently, progress has been made-more and more Americans are recycling their paper, cans,bottles,and other goods-but old wasteful habits died hard. Furthermore,the need to protect the environment may conflict with the need for jobs,as in the Northwest ,where conservationists battle lumber companies that want to cut down ancient redwood trees. A belief in the value of conservation is still compared with other American values; it can become stronger only as Americans see the need for it more clearly.

In addition,Americans may need to place a strong value on cooperation on a national scale to achieve important national objectives. The American idea of the national good has never been based on national cooperation but rather on the freedom of the individual, maintaining those conditions that provide the greatest freedom and prosperity for the individual .

It is far more difficult for Americans to accept shared sacrifice for the common good and wellbeing of the entire country. For example ,although the majority of Americans believe that it is extremely important to balance the national budget and reduce the deficit, they do not want to see cuts in government programs that benefit them personaliy.

The American value of competition also hinders the development of a spirit of national cooperation. Competition sometimes encourages feelings of suspicion rather than the mutual trust that is necessary for successful national cooperation. Although Americans often cooperate successfully on the local level-in neighborhood groups and churches, for example, on the national level, they may see themselves as part of an interest group that is competing with other interest groups for government funds. A request by the national government for shared sacrifice may be seen as coercive and destructive rather than voluntary and constructive. However, the demands for the 21st century may compel Americans to place a greater value on national cooperation to solve problems that affect them all, directly and indirectly.

The best TITLE of this passage could be ( ).

A. Which is Better, New Value or Old Value?

B. Conservation vs. Need for Jobs

C. The Need for New National Values

D. Cooperation and Competition


正确答案:C
C[解析]文章主要是讲新价值观的需要(第三、四段),而不是比较新旧价值观哪个更好,排除A项;B项只是在文章第二段有所涉及,排除;D项在文章第三、四段提到的目的是说明新国民价值观的需要,而不是单纯讨论合作和竞争,排除。
