【6】but

【7】that

【8】on

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了Katharine Meyer Graham是怎樣創(chuàng)辦華盛頓郵報(bào)的

【1】as；考查固定搭配。Be described as…被描述成……；句意：Katharine Meyer Graham曾經(jīng)被美國描述成美國最有力量的女人。橫線前有be動(dòng)詞和described，故填as

【2】an；考查冠詞。不定冠詞an/a修飾可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)，an放在首字母是元音開頭的單詞前，表示泛指，定冠詞the修飾名詞時(shí)表示特指。這里的elected representative和后面的a government official一樣表示泛指，且elected又是元音開頭的單詞，故填an

【3】it；考查代詞。這里要填的是前文出現(xiàn)的The Washington Post newspaper但是為了避免重復(fù)要用一個(gè)代替，故填it

【4】or；考查介詞。no training in business和experience in operating a large company是并列關(guān)系，表示：她既沒有參加過商業(yè)培訓(xùn)也沒有任何開大公司的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。故填or

【5】how；考查疑問代詞。句意：最開始她也不知道怎樣做報(bào)紙。故填how

【6】but；考查連詞。根據(jù)前文：She had no idea about ______ to operate a newspaper at first,可知她沒有過辦報(bào)紙的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，但是她從來沒有失去過辦下去的信心。這里的兩個(gè)句子在意思上有轉(zhuǎn)折的意思在里面，故填but

【7】that；考查關(guān)系代詞。在定語從句中，先行詞是形容詞最高級或序數(shù)詞或被形容詞最高級、序數(shù)詞修飾時(shí)，此時(shí)的關(guān)系代詞用that。先行詞women有最高級the greatest修飾，所以關(guān)系代詞應(yīng)為that，故填that

【8】on；考查固定詞組。Have an important influence on…對……有一個(gè)重要的影響。橫線前有had an important influence，差一個(gè)介詞，故填on

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

If women are mercilessly exploited year after year，they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion，they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it，only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.

Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way waste hours of their time altering (改變) the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened；necklines are lowered or raised，and so on.

No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth，comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort，as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day，or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion，the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women's clothes，one wonder，reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability？Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability？That is for you to decide.

【1】Designers and big stores always make money________.

A．by constantly changing the fashions in women's clothing

B．by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry

C．because they are able to predict new fashions for the coming season

D．because they attach great importance to the quality of women's clothing

【2】To the writer，that women alter their old fashioned dresses is seen as________.

A．a(chǎn) waste of money

B．a(chǎn)n expression of taste

C．a(chǎn) waste of time

D．a(chǎn)n expression of creativity

【3】According to the passage，which of the following statements is true?

A．The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.

B．The constant changes in women's clothing reflect their strength of characters.

C．Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.

D．New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.

【4】By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”，the writer means that________.

A．women are better able to put up with discomfort

B．men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion

C．men are also exploited greatly by fashion de signers

D．women's inconstancy in their choice of clothing is often laughed at

【題目】The character “duang” is so new that it does not even exist in the Chinese dictionary. But it has already spread like wildfire online in China, appearing more than 8 million times on China’s micro-blogging site Weibo, where it spawned a top-trending hashtag(標(biāo)簽) that drew 312,000 discussions among 15,000 users. On China’s biggest online search engine Baidu, it has been looked up almost 600,000 times. It’s been noticed in the West too, with Foreign Policy seeing it as a “break the internet” viral meme － like a certain Kirn Kardashian image, or a certain multicoloured dress.

But what does it mean? “Everyone’s duang-ing and I still don’t know what it means! As if it’s back to school for me,” said Weibo user Weileiweito. Another user asked: “Have you duang-ed today? My mind is full of duang duang duang.” “To duang or not to duang, that is the question,” wrote user BaiKut automan.

“Duang” seems to be an example of onomatopoeia(擬聲詞), a word that phonetically imitates a sound. It all seems to have started with Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan, who in 2004 was featured in a shampoo commercial where he said famously defended his sleek, black hair using the rhythmical-sounding “duang”. The word resurfaced again recently after Chan posted it on his Weibo page. Thousands of users then began to flood Chan’s Weibo page with comments, coining the word in reference to his infamous shampoo appearance.

The word appears to have many different meanings, and there’s no perfect translation, but you could use it as an adjective to give emphasis to the word that follows it. A kitten might be “duang cute”, for example. Or you might be “very duang confused” by this blog.

For readers of Chinese characters, the Jackie Chan theme is also apparent from the quirky(古怪的) way in which the word is written: a combination of Chan’s Mandarin names.

【1】How does the writer try to prove that Duang has already spread like wildfire online in China?

A. giving examples B. listing numbers

C. making comparisons D. offering quotations

【2】Why does the author mention “a certain Kirn Kardashian image”?

A. to tell us “Duang” also draws attention in the West.

B. to tell us “Duang” is just like a certain image on a certain multicolored dress.

C. to tell us Foreign Policy doesn’t like “Duang”.

D. to tell us a certain Kim Kardashian image breaks the internet.

【3】 Which of the following statements about “duang is NOT true?

A. It came from Jackie chan’s commertial.

B. Weibo users created the word about his infamous shampoo appearance.

C. It was first used as an adjective to stress the word that follows it.

D. Many people are confused by the word.

【4】What kind of people may not know the word “duang”?

A. the old who are over sixties

B. the young who are in fashion

C. a boy who has dropped out of school

D. a woman who never surfs the internet
