【答案解析】
46.根據(jù)題目中的Bill Perry這個專有名詞,我們可以定位到文中的第一段話。在But后面有提到“我能告訴你我喜歡這個小伙子。因為他打算禁止付小費這種情況,而贊成給服務員實際的工資”。B選項和這句話的含義接近,get rid of意為“擺脫”,和ban“禁止”含義相近﹔plan to和intend to含義一樣。所以正確答案為B.
47.根據(jù)題干中的關鍵詞the author hates tipping和main reason可以返回原文,定位到第三段。文中說“我討厭它,因為它將義務偽裝成一種選擇?!奔热皇橇x務,那必然是強迫顧客去做的事情,這和C選項的含義較為接近。
48.根據(jù)關鍵詞many people love tipping返回原文,我們可以定位至第四段。根據(jù)文中第二行的You like to feel that you have a voice in how much money your server makes.可知,這題應該選擇D選項。
49.文中問的是調查中一些服務員的觀點,這在第五段的最后一句話中有所體現(xiàn),文中說:一些服務員不認為他們的工作會受到收到的消費的影響。
50.本題問作者的觀點,切記文中無人認領的觀點便是作者的觀點。在第六段的末尾有提到說,作者支持Bill Perry的觀點,而Bill的觀點就和D選項是近義表達。
【Passage Two參考答案】
51. [C] The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.
52. [D] Consumers will spend their savings from cheap oil on other commodities.
53. [C] They use their money reserves to back up consumption.
54. [B] Its negative effects more than cancel out its positive effects.
55. [C] Oil importers account for a larger portion of the global economy.
【答案解析】
51. [C] The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.
解析:本題是主旨題,原文第一段表示“過去油價下降總是刺激世界經濟增長,但是即使現(xiàn)在油價下降越來越多,最新對經濟增長的預測卻不容樂觀,這意味著更低的油價和增長之間的關系削弱了嗎?”這第一段點明了主題,后面的段落都是在討論油價下降為什麼以前可以刺激經濟增長,而現(xiàn)在卻不再能刺激經濟增長了。可以看出是C是正確答案。
52. [D] Consumers will spend their savings from cheap oil on other commodities.
解析:根據(jù)原文第二段 “some experts say there are still good reasons to ... They spend that money on other things, which stimulates the economy”,可以看出是D正確選項。
53. [C] They use their money reserves to back up consumption.
解析:根據(jù)原文第三段中“draw on their reserves to support government spending and subsidies for their consumers”,可以看出C是正確選項。
54. [B] Its negative effects more than cancel out its positive effects.
解析:根據(jù)原文第五段中“the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming the positive effects of cheaper oil”可以看出B是正確選項。
55. [C] Oil importers account for a larger portion of the global economy.
解析:根據(jù)原文第六段中“so the nations suffering from the price drop account for a larger share of the global economy”,可以看出是C正確選項。
