閱讀理解
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down (though these have already been raised) ; and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long. As a Norwegian politician said last week: "We will soon be changed beyond all recognition. "
Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle. During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success: Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. But the oil industry has already started to draw people from the south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. With nearly 100 percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.
The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because the Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian. And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.
16. The Norwegian Government would prefer the oil industry to ______.
A. provide more jobs for foreign workers
B. slow down the rate of its development
C. sell the oil it is producing abroad
D. develop more quickly than at present
17. The Norwegian Government has tried to ______.
A. encourage the oil companies to discover new oil sources
B. prevent oil companies employing people from northern Norway
C. help the oil companies solve many of their problems
D. keep the oil industry to something near its present size
18. According to the passage, the oil industry might lead northern Norway to ______.
A. the development of industry
B. a growth in population
C. the failure of the development programme
D. the development of new towns
19. In the south, one effect to the development of the oil industry might be ______.
A. a large reduction on unemployment
B. a growth in the tourist industry
C. a reduction in the number of existing industries
D. the development of a number of service industries
20. Norwegian farmers and fishermen have an important influence because ______.
A. they form such a large part of the Norwegian ideal
B. their lives and values represent the Norwegian ideal
C. their work is so useful to the rest of Norwegian society
D. they regard oil as a threat to the Norwegian way of life
答案及解析:
1.D[解析] 這句話的意思是:2009年10月1日,中華人民共和國(guó)(人民)慶祝祖國(guó)建立60周年。congratulate表示“向某人祝 賀”;keep表示“保持,遵守”;remain表示“逗留,繼續(xù)存在”;celebrate表示“慶祝,慶賀,贊美,歌頌”。故D項(xiàng)符合題意。
2.C [解析] 根據(jù)語(yǔ)法anybody或者everybody都可以,但是根據(jù)句意,應(yīng)該是老師問(wèn)大家是否都在這兒,everybody可以表示“所有人,大家”,所以答案選C。
3.C[解析] rise up 表示“上升”;hold on表示“繼續(xù),堅(jiān)持”;pick up表示“拾起,抬起”;take on表示“呈現(xiàn),承擔(dān)”。根據(jù)句中的 “with proper measures”可知因?yàn)榇胧┑卯?dāng),中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)才開始復(fù)蘇。pick up在句中可以表示“好轉(zhuǎn)、恢復(fù)”的意思,故C項(xiàng)符合題 意。
4.A[解析] 句意:這條裙子是按照你媽媽的尺寸為她定做的。make for sb. to (one's own) measure按(某人的)尺寸為其定做。
5.B[解析] 在一些狀語(yǔ)從句中,如果謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是be,主語(yǔ)又和主句的主語(yǔ)一致,或者主語(yǔ)為it,常??梢园褟木渲械闹髡Z(yǔ)和be省略掉。在本題中,根據(jù) 主句可知從句中的動(dòng)詞和從句中的主語(yǔ)是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,且從句動(dòng)詞應(yīng)該用一般過(guò)去時(shí),因此從句是 “the little girl was left in the darkroom”的省略形式,省略掉主語(yǔ)和be,則從句是 “l(fā)eft alone in the dark room,”故選B。
6.C[解析] tomato需要加-es變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù),chicken表示“雞肉”的意思時(shí)是不可數(shù)名詞,沒(méi)有復(fù)數(shù)形式,所以答案選C。

8.A[解析] turn out意為“結(jié)果是,原來(lái)是”;turn up意為“找到,發(fā)現(xiàn),出現(xiàn),開大音量”;set out意為“開始,出發(fā),陳述”;set up意為“設(shè)立,豎立,架起,升起,創(chuàng)(紀(jì)錄),提出”。
9.B [解析] 此句中的being不是謂語(yǔ),而是一個(gè)非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞(現(xiàn)在分詞),所以逗號(hào)后面不是一個(gè)完整的定語(yǔ)從句,而是一個(gè)獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu),即用現(xiàn)在分詞表示一個(gè)伴隨性的狀語(yǔ)。所以這里不填引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句的關(guān)系代詞,而填代詞的賓格形式,故選B。
10.D [解析] “be gone”意思是消失了、不見(jiàn)了。這里是過(guò)去分詞轉(zhuǎn)化成的形容詞作表語(yǔ),表示主語(yǔ)的狀態(tài)。所以答案選D。
11.C[解析] pay off還清(債務(wù)等);pay back償還(借款),報(bào)答,報(bào)復(fù);pay for償還;pay down用現(xiàn)金支付。根據(jù)句意應(yīng)該選C。

14.C[解析] 根據(jù)答句的意思,現(xiàn)在汽車還不能用,所以要選“現(xiàn)在正在修理中”。
15.A [解析] 根據(jù)句意,不知道是否完成,所以要選“上個(gè)月正在翻譯”,而不是“已經(jīng)翻譯完”。
16.B [解析] 通過(guò)文章開頭“The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. A new law limits exploration to…”可以推出,挪威政府正竭盡全力把石油工業(yè)控制起來(lái),制定新法律來(lái)限制勘探開采,限制產(chǎn)量等,B項(xiàng)符合題意。
17.D[解析] 通過(guò)文章第一段容易排除A、B、C項(xiàng),本題正確答案為D。
