In a traditional agricultural economy, large families are helpful. Having more children means having more workers in the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. In an industrial economy, the situation is different. Many children do not help a family; instead, they are an expense. Thus, industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate. This was the case in Italy, which was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. In the early part of the twentieth century, Italy was a poor, largely agricultural country with a high birth rate. After World War团 Italy's economy was rapidly modernized and industrialized. By the end of the century, the birth rate had dropped to 1.3 children per woman, the world's lowest.In a traditional agricultural economy, a large10 family.A、can be an advantageB、may limit incomeC、isn't necessaryD、is expensive【正确答案】A【答案解析】答案选 A。对照本段 In a traditional agricultural economy, large families are helpful.大的家庭是有帮助的，选项中最接近意思的是A,成为一个优势，答 案是Ao第23题【单项选择题】2009.10 Poor speaker of English though he was at the time, he still managed to make himself.A、understandB、understoodC> understandingD、to understand【正确答案】B【答案解析】此题考查语法。那个时候虽然他说英语说得不好，但仍然可以让别 人听懂。非谓语动词的选用。过去分词作宾语补足语表示被动以及动作的完成。第24题【单项选择题】【填句补文】There is a difference between science and technology. .

That/s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up, John ! You,ll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.

For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.")的意思。该句的直接意思是"如果丈夫和妻子能明白能量周期是怎么 回事，以及家庭每个成员有什么样的周期，很多家庭争吵就会停止.。也就是说， 家庭争吵的发生是因为丈夫和妻子不了解能量周期是怎么回事，更谈不上了解每 个家庭成员有什么样的能量周期了。因此A项：Unawareness of energy cycles(不 知道能量周期)应是正确答案。第27题【单项选择题】2007.04 The furniture in her bedroom is quite different from in theliving room.A> thatB、itC、oneD、which【正确答案】A【答案解析】此题考查复合句。that在本句中指代the furniture,目的是为了避 免重复。which用于引导句子或短语，在此也不能指代the furniture。第28题【单项选择题】2008.04 Anxiety can with children's performance at school.13A、referB、 preferC、inferD、interfere【正确答案】D【答案解析】此题考查词语辨析。句子翻译为：焦虑可以阻碍孩子们在学校的表 现。A . refer to 提到、查阅、涉及；B. prefer to 更喜欢；C. infer from （根 据某事）推断、推定；D. interfere with扰乱、阻碍。第29题【单项选择题】阅读判断】Five neighbors at a central Missouri retirement community who are all centenarians （百岁老人）get asked all the time： Z/How did you live to be 100?"Q: The five centenarians live in a very friendly community.A、TrueB、FalseC、Not Given【正确答案】c【答案解析】答案选Co题目说的是“这五位百岁老人生活在一个非常友好的社 区”，文章开头局部提到了"community（社区），但该句并没有说这五位百岁老人 生活的社区是否是一个友好的社区，因此判断问题句的信息在文章中没有提到。第30题【单项选择题】【2009.01 Whenever I go out to dinner with him, I always paying the bill.A、end upB、arrive atC、drop outD、give off【正确答案】A【答案解析】句意：每当我与他外出吃饭，最后总是我付账。考查短语意义区分。14A以而告终；B到达，取得；C不参加，隐退；D散发。第31题【单项选择题】【填句补文】Though little research has been carried out about how exactly the sunspot will negatively harm the health of the people.
