6、is serious business,but I had 20 years of experience doing it.I was a master.However,it would take 20 more years before I had the mastery I needed to have as a doctor.I finally made the decision.【语篇解读】作者离开摄影行业成为一名医生。在接到国家地理杂志图片编辑的邀请电话后,考虑到自己有20多年的摄影经验,作者决定重返这个行业。1.Which of the following best explain

9、his photographic skills.答案A解析细节理解题。由最后一段最后三句可知,作者最终意识到他很精通摄影,但他还需要20年的时间才能掌握作为一名医生所需要的技能,所以作者最终决定重返摄影行业。B主题语境:人与社会历史典故建议用时:5实际用时:正答率:/4 Moolah.Benjamins.Stacks.Big ones.Cheddar.We have a lot of terms for money in the U.S.While the meaning behind some of these terms may seem obvious,its less int

10、uitive for others.“Bucks” is one example of the latter.So why do we call dollars “bucks”?A widely held belief involves the use of the word “buck” to mean “a male animal;especially,a male deer or antelope.” Back in the 18th century,European settlers and Native Americans often traded buckskins,or deer

11、skins,as a form of currency.One of the earliest references to bucks as currency is a 1748 journal entry from Conrad Weiser,a Pennsylvania Dutch pioneer,interpreter and diplomat.In his journal,he described the rate for a cask of whiskey as “5 bucks,” reportedly in reference to deerskins.The journal a

12、lso cited a man who was “robbed of the value of 300 bucks.”A popular theory relates the term “buck” to the use of deerskins as a commodity(货物) of exchange.One deerskin wasnt necessarily the equivalent of one “buck,” as various factors could determine the value,like the size,quality,age of the deer a

13、nd more.Official U.S.dollars werent minted until several decades after Weisers journal entries,but it appears buckskins and the word buck stuck around in the currency arena.Yet another theory relates “buck” to the game of poker.A knife with a buckhorn handle in the 19th century American frontier,was

14、 passed around to indicate whose turn it was to deal.Many believe the buckhorn handled knife in poker is the source of the phrase “pass the buck,” which means to shift the responsibility for something to someone else.The idea is that a player who did not want to be the dealer could pass the buckhorn

15、 knife,that is “pass the buck,” and make the next player take up the responsibility of dealing.Clearly,theres no strong agreement on the origin of the word “buck” for dollar,but most of us can probably agree that it might be nice to have a few more in our bank accounts.【语篇解读】人们有时候也将美元叫做 buck,但许多人并不知

16、道关于这种用法在历史上是有许多理论依据的。4.What does the underlined word “intuitive” in the first paragraph probably mean?A.Clear.B.Major.C.Cheap.D.Meaningful.答案A解析词义猜测题。由前面句中的While和obvious可知,此处应表示虽然一些术语背后的意义很明显,但其他的术语却没有这么“清楚的”意思。5.According to the text,Conrad Weiser was the first to . A.work as an interpreterB.b

17、e robbed of bucksC.write a journal entryD.refer to bucks as currency答案D解析细节理解题。由第二段第三句可知,Conrad Weiser是第一个把buck作为货币的人。6.When did official U.S.dollars come into use?A.In the year 1748.B.Decades after 1748.C.Before Weiser wrote his journal entry.D.As soon as Weiser wrote his journal entry.答案B解析细节理解题。由

18、第三段最后一句中的“until several decades after Weisers journal entries”可知,美元是在Weiser完成日记账之后几十年才被制造出来。7.In the 19th century,who is the dealer in the game of poker?A.Anyone who played the game.B.Anyone who passed the buck on.C.The person who got the buckhorn knife.D.The person who won the game at last.答案C解析细节理

19、解题。由最后一段中的第二句可知,在19世纪,人们在玩纸牌游戏时拿到鹿角柄的就是发牌员。此题易误选B项。当时人们在玩纸牌时,带有鹿角柄的刀子会在人们之间传递,当刀子传递给一个人时也就意味着把责任传递给他,因此拿到这把刀子的人才是发牌员。C主题语境:人与社会名人传记建议用时:5实际用时:正答率:/4 Born in 1928 in Nanjing,Jiangsu,Yu Guangzhong,who spent his younger days on the Chinese mainland before moving to Taiwan in his 20s,passed away on

21、gia became so famous also disturbed Yu because among the over 1,000 poems that hed written,Nostalgia seemed to be the only one that the public ever talked about and appreciated.“Id like to think of Nostalgia as my business card,but unfortunately it got too big that it kept people from seeing the rea
