It could be a  37  task like folding up your clothes, or a major one like  38  a business meeting in your later life .            

Perfection is  39  but attention to details. If it is your job to dust the furniture at home, dust it so that not a single spot of dirt  40  from any angle. If your task is to make the beds, make them so that not a single crease(皺痕)shows on the bed – covers.

及物動(dòng)詞,需要直接跟賓語(yǔ)。

48. A 此處考查句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析,去掉插入語(yǔ)say“比如說(shuō)”之后,則可看出這是一篇關(guān)于野生動(dòng)物的散文。所以用on 表示“關(guān)于”。較難。

49. A由上下文可知此處要表達(dá)“如果你要做得完美,那就不應(yīng)當(dāng)只是寫(xiě)一些眾人皆知的事實(shí)而已!

50. C 查閱資料,固定表達(dá)。refer 欠to 。

51. B 仔細(xì)檢查。turn to“向…求助”。較容易。

52. A 考查詞組的辨析。put in“投入”; put on“穿上,上演”; put away “收起來(lái),放好”; put up

“舉起,張貼”。

53. D 細(xì)節(jié)題,線(xiàn)索在倒數(shù)第二段的第五行。

54. C 長(zhǎng)句砍短后可知,此處表達(dá)的是“正如某人曾經(jīng)說(shuō)過(guò)”。

55. B  put 此處為“說(shuō)”之意。考查熟詞生義,較難。

【2011·福建漳州實(shí)驗(yàn)中學(xué)模擬】

    Richard Cantillon (1680s-May 1734) was an Irish economist and author of Essay on the Nature of Trade in General, a book considered by Willian Stanley Jevons to be the “cradle of political economy”. Although little information exists on Cantillon’s life, it is known that he became a successful banker and merchant at an early age. His success was largely gained from the political and business connections he was able to acquire through his family and an early employer. During the late 1710s and early 1720s, Cantillon took a chance, and helped finance John Law’s Mississippi Company, from which he acquired great wealth. His success, however, came at a cost to his debtors, who attempted to get him involved in criminal activities, and even murder plots until his death 1734.

    The Essay remains Cantillon’s only surviving contribution to economics. It was written around 1730 and circulated widely in manuscript form, but was not published until 1755. Despite having much influence on the early development of the physiocrat(重農(nóng)主義者)and classical schools of thought, the Essay was largely forgotten until its rediscovery by Jevons in the late 19th century. Cantillon was influenced by his experiences as a banker, and especially by the speculative bubble(投機(jī)泡沫)of John Law’s Mississippi Company. He was also heavily influenced by previous economists, especially William Petty.

    The Essay is considered the first complete essay on economies, with a great many contributions to the science. These contributions include the development of spatial(與空間有關(guān)的)economics. Canutillo’s Essay had significant influence on the early development of political economy, including the works of David Hume and Adam Smith.

68. Which of the following about Cantillon is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

       A. He knew little about business though a successful banker.

       B. He owed all his success to his family and an early employer.

       C. John Law’s Mississippi Company brought him a great deal of money.

       D. His debtors tried to copy him by participating in some criminal activities.

69. Cantillon’s Essay ______________.

       A. was not much recognized until the late 19th century

       B. was highly thought of by the economists around 1730

       C. had great influence on the economist, William Petty

       D. helped Jevons to make some discoveries in science

70. What can be inferred from the passage?

  A. The Essay was not circulated widely until 1755.

  B. Cantillon was a successful banker, merchant and politician.

C. Cantillon turned a merchant in his fifties.

D. The Essay was largely forgotten for years.
