第2题:

Like every language,American English is full of special expressions,phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way.Our expression today is“to face the music”.
When someone says,“well,I guess I’ll have to face the music,”it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert.It is something far less pleasant,like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that,and why you didn’t do this or that.Sour music indeed,but it has to be faced At sometime or another,every one of us has had to face the music,especially as children.We can all remember father’s angry voice,“I want to talk to you.”and only because we did not obey him.What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase“to face the music”is familiar to every American,young and old,It is at least 100 years old
.And where did this expression come from?The first explanation comes from the American novelist,James Fenimore Looper.He said,in 1851,that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage.When they got their cue to go on,they often said,“Well,it’s time to face the music.”And that was exactly what they did—facing the orchestra which was just below them.And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps?hostile,especially if he forgot his lines.But he had to go out.If he did not,there would be no play.So the expression“to face the music”come to mean“having to go through something,no matter how unpleasant the experience might be,because you knew you had no choice.”
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army.When the men faced an inspection by their leader,the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked
.Was their equipment clean,shinny enough to pass the inspection?Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection.What else could they do?
Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done.As,for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible,he is dishonored
.The band does not play.Only the drums tap a sad,slow beat.The soldier is forced to leave,facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse.

Which of the following is a situation of facing the music?

A.When we are playing basketbal
B.When we are making a speec
C.When we are having a part
D.When we are talking with somebod

Lawrence Curry

When I tell people my name,they always ask me if I'm related to Lawrence Curry,the novelist,and when I say,yes,he was my great-uncle,they always want to know what he was like. "We've read all his books,"they say,"but please tell us what he was really like."When I described him,as I knew him,they go disappointed.It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.
My great-uncle was tall,with a long thin body.When he walked,he moved stiffly,with his arms clamped against his sides,looking like nothing so much as a pair of scissors.When I knew him,his hair as quite white,though it was supposed to have been yellow when he was young. His eyes were blue and deep set and had an anxious look about them as if he found the world a puzzling place.This expression of anxiety,which arose from nothing more than short-sight一he refused to wear glasses一inspire the protective instincts of his lady admirers,much to the irritation my great-aunt who thought all women were fools,except herself.
Great-uncle Curry was naturally lazy. He spent a great deal of his time in the village pub playing darts.He was also a compulsive reader from the local telephone directory to great-aunt's shopping lists.For a man whose book showed such a deep perception of the complexities of human behavior, his conversation was surprisingly trivial.He delighted in discussing English weather,the price of beer,his grandchildren's most amusing words.
He loved gossip,but he was kind.I never heard him make a malicious remark,but the wisdom of his writing never appeared in his conversation.As a child,we much preferred the company of his cousin,Stanly,who was a successful shop-owner who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits.Taking it all in all,I have to admit my famous great-uncle was rather a bore.

My great-uncle always had an anxious expression because_________.
A:he found the world a confusing place
B:he was always thinking complex things
C:he didn't have a good eyesight
D:he was worried about what was going to happen to him

答案:C
解析:
根据文章第一段最后一句:" It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.”由此可以判断人们失望是因为他们很难接受这样一个伟大的人物居然是这样一个普通人,所以选B。
第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety , which arose from nothing more than short-sight",他焦虑的神情来自于他的近视,所以选C“他视力不好”。 arise在文中的意思是“起因于······,由······产生”。
第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety...inspire the protective in-stincts of his lady admirers" , inspire意为“激发”' protective instinct意为“保护的本能”。所以选 B,即让他的女性崇拜者想要保护他。
文章的后两段指出了劳伦斯是一个天生懒惰、无聊的人,有强迫阅读症,只有D“劳伦斯是一个幽默的人”这点在全文都没有提及,所以选D。
文章的最后一段提到:" Stanly , who...who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits",小孩子更喜欢叔祖父的表兄是因为他总带给他们糖和饼干,都是孩子爱吃的东西,所以B正确。

第6题:

B

Computer programmer David Jones earns ¥35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card (信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases (推出) two new games for the fast throwing computer market each month.

But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.

“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.” David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement (退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”

60. In what way is David different from people of his age?

A. He often goes out with friends.B. He lives with his mother.

C. He has a handsome income. D. He graduated with six O-levels.

He said she must have been out of town for weeks; otherwise he ____________ her in office.

(A) would see

(B) should see

(C) must have seen

(D) would have seen


正确答案:D
解答参考:D.otherwise一词隐含了一个虚拟条件句,由于he said所用的是一般过去时,所以应该用表示与过去事实相反的虚拟形式:would have done。A)和B)的情态动词后直接跟动词原形,是对现在情况的虚拟,不合题意;must表示对过去事情比较肯定的推测,而不表示与事实相反的结果,本句中事实情况是他没有看到她。【译文】他说她肯定离开小镇好几周了,否则他该在办公室里见到她。
