    From Ponzi to Madoff

    The year was 1920.The country was the United States of America. The man's name was Charles Ponzi.
    Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead,they should give it to him to save
    for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example,a savings account might pay you$5
    a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $ 100 you gave
    him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.
    How could Ponzi make so much money for people?This is what he did with the money people gave him:
    He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However,he also kept a lot of the
    money for himself. Soon he had $ 250 million.This was a kind of theft,and it was against the law. The
    people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong. Ponzi paid them every month,just like a
    bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day,he didn'thave enough money to pay
    all the people.They discovered his crime,and he went to prison for fraud.
    Ninety years later,people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff.
    People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money,he paid them a lot
    more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals,schools,and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40
    years,people gave him$170 billion.However,no one investigated what he did with the money.The people
    who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.
    One day,Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay. That's when people
    discovered how Madoff worked:He was taking money from some people to pay other people,just the way
    Charles Fonzi did.However,this time,instead of losing millions of dollars,people lost billions.
    Madoff was accused of fraud,and the United States government officials arrested him.He didn't have to
    go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison.Bernard
    Madoff's crime was even bigger than Ponzi'5.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is
    clear:When something seems too good to be true,it probably is!

    Why didn't Madoff have to go on trial?
    A:The officials couldn'tfind any evidence against him.
    B:He had friends in the government who helped him.
    C:He admitted he was guilty.
    D:He returned all the illegal money.

    答案:C
    解析:
    从文章第一段倒数第三句话“Ponzi, however, would pay you $40 a year for every$100 you gave him to hold.”可知答案为C。
    从文章第二段第二句话“He used some of that money to pay other people”可知答案为B。
    从文章第二段第三句话“he also kept a lot of the money for himself”和第五句话“This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law.”可知答案为C。
    从文章第三段第五句话“Over a period of 40 years”可知答案为A。
    从文章第五段第二句话“He didn' t have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.”可 知答案为C。

    Too Late to Regret It

    When I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-loo-king,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much.He was natural,warm,and sincere.
    I disregarded(不顾)my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus, or sunbathe(晒太阳)on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me.Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model,and the girls envied(妒忌)me. He wasn't a local, but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.
    However,when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation,people began giving me a lot of pressure,saying that a pretty,intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with. This was also what my family thought. He spent the summer in his hometown,so I was all by myself. When he got back,I began finding faults with him. But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away.However,I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.
    I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the other hand,did not do so well at school or at work.I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores.
    Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him.Then we had a quarrel last June.He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.
    Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn't put up with me any more and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.I was shocked and looked at him in despair.
    True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.

    When did the author fall in love with the boy?
    A:After she had a quarrel with him.
    B:When she was a junior.
    C:When she was a second-year student.
    D:After she found a part-time job.

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题问“什么时候作者爱上了这个男孩?”文章第一段和第二段提到了作者爱上男孩的时间,即大学三年级的时候。其他时间与事实不一致。
    本题问“他做了什么使她高兴?”本题是细节题。文章第二段中提到“为了使我快乐,他向朋友借钱为我买礼物和请我吃饭”。
    本题问“谁建议她与他分手?”文章第五段第一句提到“几乎我所有的同事和朋友都劝我和他分手”。因此选项C“她的同事和朋友”符合题意。
    本题问“为什么他离开了她?”文章最后一段提到“他说他无法忍受我,说他想要回家乡”。显然这是原因所在。所以选项A“他再也无法忍受了”符合题意。
    本题问“当得知他将离开她时,她······”。文章最后一段提到“我感到吃惊,我意识到真正的爱只有一次,但我发现得太晚了”。由此可见,作者对这件事情的感觉是痛苦的。因此选项D“非常痛苦”符合题意。

    本题为阅读理解题,根据下文内容的转折,这里应该是“很少用药”。
    本题语法题,只有expensive的最高级前用the most。
    本题是词组辫析。start“开始”。swing“摇摆”。show“展示”。spread“传播,散布”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据下文内容,这里应是“委员会成员嫉妒他的成功”。
    本题为阅读理解题,与上半句的“朋友”相对,这里是“对手、敌人”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据上文应是表示“留下的原因”。
    本题为语法词汇题。affection名词,“喜爱”;affect动词,“影响”;effect名词,“影响”;effective形容词,“有效的”。
    prove“证明”; correct“改正”; create“创造”; prepare“准备”。
    根据上下文这里应是“疼痛”的意思。pain“疼”; trouble"麻烦”; destruction “破坏”; damage“损伤”。
    awful“极糟糕的”; interesting“有趣的”; successful“成功的”; dangerous“危险的”。
    根据上下文,这里是“一件震惊的事”,因此是shock。
    根据下文,妻子应该感到“焦虑”。
    根据上文,安德鲁做实验,因此应该是“实验室”。
    根据上下文背景,此处的闯入者应是“拒绝听”。
    本题为理解题。上句说到安德鲁生气地接电话,在听到是欧文后应该是语气有所转变。

  • 第16题:

    ()It is easy to underestimate English writer James Heriot.He had such a pleasant,readable style that one might think that anyone could imitate it.How many times have I heard people say“I could write a book.I just haven’t the time.”Easily said.Not so easily done.James Herriot,contrary to pupular opinion,did not find it easy in his early days of,as he put it,“having a go at the writing game”.While he obviously had an abundance of natural talent,the final,polished work that he gave to the world was the result of years of practising,re-writing and reading.Like the majority of authors,he had to suffer many disappointments and rejections along the way,but these made him all the more determined to succeed.Everything he achieved in life was earned the hard way and his success in the literary field was no exception.


    答案:
    解析:
    我们很容易低估英国作家吉米·哈利。他的作品秉承一种令人愉快的,易读的风格,以至于有人认为任何人都可以模仿。很多次我听到人们说:“我能写一本书,我只是没有时间。”说来容易,做来难。与大家所想的相反,早年吉米·哈利发现写作并非易事,正如他所言“尝试写作游戏”。尽管很显然他极具写作天赋,但他呈现给世界的最终出版作品也是历经多年练习,重写与阅读的结果。与大多数作家一样,一路走来,他经历了多次的失望与拒绝,但这一切使他更坚定了获得成功的决心。他生命中获得的成就源于他的艰苦努力,他在文学领域的成功绝非偶然。

    From Ponzi to Madoff

    The year was 1920.The country was the United States of America. The man's name was Charles Ponzi.
    Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead,they should give it to him to save
    for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example,a savings account might pay you$5
    a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $ 100 you gave
    him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.
    How could Ponzi make so much money for people?This is what he did with the money people gave him:
    He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However,he also kept a lot of the
    money for himself. Soon he had $ 250 million.This was a kind of theft,and it was against the law. The
    people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong. Ponzi paid them every month,just like a
    bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day,he didn'thave enough money to pay
    all the people.They discovered his crime,and he went to prison for fraud.
    Ninety years later,people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff.
    People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money,he paid them a lot
    more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals,schools,and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40
    years,people gave him$170 billion.However,no one investigated what he did with the money.The people
    who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.
    One day,Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay. That's when people
    discovered how Madoff worked:He was taking money from some people to pay other people,just the way
    Charles Fonzi did.However,this time,instead of losing millions of dollars,people lost billions.
    Madoff was accused of fraud,and the United States government officials arrested him.He didn't have to
    go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison.Bernard
    Madoff's crime was even bigger than Ponzi'5.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is
    clear:When something seems too good to be true,it probably is!

    What did Ponzi do with the money people gave him?
    A:He spent it all on things for himself.
    B:He used some of it to pay other people.
    C:He deposited it all in a bank.
    D:He kept it all to save for a good plan.

    答案:B
    解析:
    从文章第一段倒数第三句话“Ponzi, however, would pay you $40 a year for every$100 you gave him to hold.”可知答案为C。
    从文章第二段第二句话“He used some of that money to pay other people”可知答案为B。
    从文章第二段第三句话“he also kept a lot of the money for himself”和第五句话“This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law.”可知答案为C。
    从文章第三段第五句话“Over a period of 40 years”可知答案为A。
    从文章第五段第二句话“He didn' t have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.”可 知答案为C。

    Too Late to Regret It
    When I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much .He was natural,warm,and sincere.
    I disregarded(不顾)my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus , or sunbathe(晒太阳)on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm .He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me .Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model, and the girls envied(妒忌)me. He wasn't a local , but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.
    However,when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation,people began giving me a lot of pressure,saying that a pretty,intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with .This was also what my family thought.He spent the summer in his hometown,so I was all by myself. When he got back,I began finding faults with him.But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away .However,I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.
    I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the oth- er hand,did not do so well at school or at work .I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores。
    Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him.Then we had a quarrel last June .He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.
    Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore,and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.I was shocked and looked at him in despair. True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.

    When did the author fall in love with the boy?
    A: After she had a quarrel with him.
    B: When she was a junior.
    C: When she was a second-year student.
    D: After she found a part-time job.

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题问“什么时候作者爱上了这个男孩?”文章第一段和第二段提到了作者爱上男孩的时间,即:大学三年级的时候。其他时间与事实不一致。


    本题问“他做了什么使她高兴?”本题是细节题。文章第二段中提到“为了要使我快乐,他向他的朋友借钱为我买礼物并请我吃饭。”


    本题问“谁建议她与他分手?”文章第五段第一句提到“几乎我所有的同事和朋友劝告我和他分手。”因此选项C“她的同事和朋友”符合题意。


    本题问“为什么他离开了她?”文章最后一段提到“他说他无法忍受我,他说他想要回家乡。”显然这是原因所在。所以选项A“他再也无法忍受了”符合题意。


    本题问“当得知他将离开她时,她……”。文章最后一段提到“我感到吃惊,我意识到真正的爱只发生一次,但我发现的已经太晚。”由此可见,作者汁这件事情的感觉是痛苦的。因此选项D“非常痛苦”符合题意。

    材料题
    B
    In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe,fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University.I had never before seen a man so tall as he,and so ugly.I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home.
    His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness.They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears,of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name.
    Indeed,his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself.My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock classes.
    Upon arriving at the university that day,I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office.He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall,and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around.
    He stepped in,remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out.“Tell me what you see.”I said as I took his place in the room,leaving him in the hall with his back to the door.Without the least hesitation and without a single error,he gave the number of seats in the room,pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls,named the colors each student was wearing,pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard,spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor,and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window.
    As I rejoined Wolfe,I was speechless with surprise.He,on the contrary,was wholly calm as he said,“The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all.”

    What can be inferred from the passage

    A.The author was happy to see the test resul
    B.What the students said was hardly tru
    C.Wolfe would remember forever what the author had don
    D.Wolfe felt joyful after he had been teste
