SectionIIReadingComprehension 21D选【D】,因为第一段段尾句Astheauctioneercalledoutbids,inNewRorkoneoftheoldestbanksonWallStreet,LehmanBrothers,filedforbankruptcR.即雷曼兄弟公司破产。 22A选【A】,本题迷惑选项为C,文章第三段只强调了collectorsstaRedawaR;Salesfell,并没有强调“收藏时尚早在这之前就已经大大降温了”。 23B选【B】因为文章第二段只说了TheworldartmarkethadalreadRbeenlosingmomentumforawhileafterrisingvertiginouslRsince20RR.并没有说比别的行业更有势头冲劲。
24C选【C】本题其实属于猜词题,问3Ds是什么含义,根据最后一段的上下文的含义,上一段段尾句说:ButEdwardDolman,Christie’schiefeRecutive,saRs:“I’mprettRconfidentwe’reatthebottom。”;以及3Ds之前的句子,therearestillbuRersinthemarket;Christie’srevenuesinthefirsthalfof20RRwerestillhigher;notalackofdemandbutalackofgoodworktosell能感觉到后文应该继续表示有信心,对将来乐观。所以选C。 25C选【C】,文章从第二段开始就说虽然大家还是有信心,但艺术收藏市场不景气。 26A选【A】,根据第一段womenfrequentlRcomplainthattheirhusbandsdon'ttalktothem.。 27C选【C】,本题属于猜词题,从下文主要内容来看,夫妻缺乏沟通会导致离婚,即对婚姻产生破坏作用。 28B选【B】,注意本题是选错误选项,ACD都是正确的,但是B选项错误的原因是偷换了50%的比率对象。文章只说了thecurrentdivorcerateofnearlR50percent,即目前美国离婚率为50%,并没有说50%的离婚率是因为缺乏沟通造成的,B选项的说法大大低于文章前一句话所说的mostofthewomengavelackofcommunicationasthereasonfortheirdivorce。 29D选【D】,文章主题强调男女说话交流模式不一样。AB中的moral和inequalitR不符合原文。C是无中生有。 30B选【B】,本文围绕着男女交流不一样,导致离婚这一现象展开,所以下文具体会阐述这副图的的细节讨论这个现象。 31A选【A】,本题关键词Dr.Curtis,定位于第二段,A选项和第二段段尾句
17
尚择优选
“howtocreatenewbehaviorsthathappenautomaticallR”相同含义。 32A选【A】,本题迷惑选项是D,其实文章没有强调这是好习惯,只是中立的立场描述了这些产品影响了人们的习惯。 33D选【D】,根据第四和第六自然段的段尾句,发现只有Unilever文章没有阐述是否它帮助了人们产生习惯 34C选【C】,根据文章后四段,不难发现商业广告是主要原因,所以选C。 35B选【B】,作者对于商业广告用的形容词:在第四段是shrewd(狡猾的,精明的),在第7段是ruthless(无情的,残忍的),说明作者对于广告的作用的观点是负面的。 36A
37C选【C】,根据第二段段首段尾句,不难看出事与愿违,实际操作与想象不一样,有冲突。B错的原因是偷换了宾语,文章第二段第二句话没有强调当时歧视races(不同种族的人) 38C选【C】,关键词1960s定位于第三段,A错误的原因不是statelaw禁止的,BD无中生有。C来自于段尾句theclaimthatwomenwereneededathome。 39C 40D

46.“坚持不懈”如今已成一个流行词汇,但对TedNing而言,这个概念一直有个人含义,经历了一段痛苦松懈的个人生活,使他清楚面向以坚持不懈为导向的价值观,必须贯彻到每天的行动和选择中。
Ning回忆起20世纪90年代末期卖保险的那段迷茫时光,他通过蓬勃兴起的网络疯狂地找工作,并且与Boulder代理机构签了约。
事情进展并不顺利,TedNing说到:“那真是个糟糕的选择,因为我对此没有激情,”可以预料,他把工作中的矛盾能解释为没有业务。Ning说:“我很痛苦渴望午夜起来盯着天花板,我没钱,我需要工作,每个人都说‘等吧,只要有耐心会好转的。’” 47.Directions:
