解题分析 |
1 |
B |
逻辑推理词义比较前后照应 |
对于此空,前面已给出提示。我们可以注意到前半句用了not only,因此后面与前面应该是一个能并存、几乎相同的情况。前面说农民开始转向种植新颖的、新式的(new)作物,这里是some_____ ways of making money,就当然不是普通、庸俗的, 伪劣的(common),不仅仅要快的、迅速的(swift),而且要前所未知的、奇怪的、奇异的(strange),但绝对不是非法的(illegal)。而且接下来文中说其中最新奇、不同寻常的(unusual)是赛羊(sheep racing),所以这里选strange完全符合逻辑。 |
2 |
D |
词义比较逻辑推理 |
因为传统上都是horses racing,而对于sheep racing,人们闻所未闻,感到难以接受,难以置信。这里作者用了一个插入语 “是的,你没听错(correctly)!”,而honestly(正直地);surprisingly(惊奇地);completely (完全地)用在此句中则无法与上、下文相联系,故选D。 |
3 |
C |
词义比较 |
文中提到一位农民举办这种比赛,人们来(turned up)观看。bring up教育, 培养, 提出;look forward盼望,如果说人们盼望观看比赛也可以讲得通,但look forward后的to是介词,后应跟动名词,故D也不可选;turn up出现、显身、来到,从意义上也讲得通,语法上也无错误;show off炫耀,与文意不符。 |
4 |
C |
常识运用 |
比赛时大家都应该已经清楚地知道哪是好马,哪是劣马,才会打赌下注,而且有明显的偏好,所以及时地(in time)研究马的状况一定发生在比赛前(in advance),而不是在此之后(behind time)或在比赛进行之中(in progress)。 |
5 |
A |
语句连贯 |
前面讲述了赛马的情况,接下来讲述赛羊,情况与赛马完全不同,因此这里需要一个转折(but)连词。therefore表示因果;moreover表示递进;otherwise意为否则。 |
6 |
B |
前后照应 |
这篇文章主要是讲赛羊,前面讲了赛马,很明显,这里讲的是羊,而且前面的赛马为人们所熟知,而这里没人听说过的,当然就是赛羊了,故答案选B。 |
7 |
A |
逻辑推理词义比较 |
这种比赛形式是奇特罕见的(peculiar),但不危险(dangerous)。下文提到的是赛羊的场面不可能令人厌烦(boring),而应该是激动人心的(exciting),因为羊跑得出人意料地快。 |
8 |
C |
常识运用 |
因为这些食物的目的是给羊encouragement的,所以必须能被羊看见,如果在山(hill)的另一边,就起不到作用了。field意为田地、运动场,而比赛时应是沿着一定路径、跑道(track)跑的,而不是在田地或运动场(field)上无规则地跑,故D也不可选。而应该是羊跑时,把食物放在路的另一边,故答案选C。 |
9 |
D |
语句连贯 |
for a while是一段时间;not for a while意为它们吃食物的时间很少,前一句是The sheep run surprisingly fast,与这句构成转折关系,尽管它们吃得很少,跑得却特别快,故答案选D。 |
10 |
B |
词义比较 |
最后一句得出的结论是人们显然在这天的比赛中很高兴,这是通过观察(observing)他们愉快的脸和激动的情绪作出的判断(judging),而非考虑(considering)和推断、暗示(inferring),故答案选B。 |
