8、as greatly _14_ at the club for her successful _15_.【解题导语】 本文讲述的是Mrs. Clarke在发现家中被盗后采取措施，靠智慧保护了自家财产，同时用开水惩治小偷，并帮助警察捉到了小偷的故事。1A.saving Bpassing Cstealing Dfinding解析：从上下文来看，此处说的是Mrs. Clake每到星期四下午都去女子俱乐部打发时间。答案：B2A.learned Bfound Csensed Dhoped解析：从后面的几个问句来看，她对是否出现了问题还没有把握，故这只是她回到家时的一种“感觉”，觉得有点“反常”，但不能说
9、是learn(得知)，find(发现)，更不能是hope(希望)。sense在此为动词，意为“觉察到，感觉到”。答案：C3A.sight Bexhibition Cnote Dsign解析：从The back door and the windows were all locked及下文来看，此处应用sign，即没有人强行进入的迹象/痕迹(sign)。答案：D4A.watching Bsearching Clooking Dchecking解析：从Had anything been taken来看，她仍不知道是否丢失了东西，由此可推测此时只能是“核实”一下是否有丢失的东西，而不是注视着(wat
10、ch)，搜查(search)或看(look)。答案：D5A.late Bdinner Cusual Down解析：由第1段第1句话知她每逢星期四下午就到女子俱乐部去，由此可推测在下星期四她又像往常一样出门了。at her usual time指在往常的时间，与往常一样。答案：C6A.open Bback Cfront Dbroken解析：为防止被贼看到，Mrs. Clake从后门偷偷地进了家门。前面已提到她已把门锁上了，故排除open。答案：B7A.drinking Bmaking Cpouring Dplanting解析：从下文的Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle a
11、nd poured the water over the hand来看，此处说的是她正在沏茶(make tea)，并非是喝茶(drink tea)或倒茶(pour tea)或种茶(plant tea)。答案：B8A.saw Bwatched Cheard Dsmelled解析：从上下文来看，贼在外面，Mrs. Clarke在里面，只能是听到外面letterbox被打开，而see，watch，smell都不合此时捉贼的情景。答案：C9.A.wood Bequipment Cchalk Dwire解析：从后面的A sharp cry was heard outside as the wire fe
12、ll to the floor来看，此处说的是盗贼用铁丝作工具来行窃。答案：D10A.discovered Bbrought Craised Dsupported解析：前面说当出现动静时她正在沏茶，此处说的是她举起沏茶用的热水壶，然后把水浇在伸进来的那只手上。答案：C11A.soft Bgentle Csharp Dloud解析：她举起热水壶把开水浇在那只手上，由此可想象那人应是痛得尖叫起来，即a sharp cry。答案：C12A.pushed Bput Cstuck Dfell解析：由一声尖叫可推测，那只手被烫着了，由此可判断此处说的是铁丝掉到了地上。fall to the floor意为
13、“掉到地上”。答案：D13A.walking Bjumping Crunning Dsteady解析：这是盗贼被冷不防遭到袭击后的反应：先是铁丝掉到了地上，接着把手缩回去，然后就逃跑了，故此处说的是她听到了逃跑的脚步声。答案：C14A.admired Bencouraged Cinstructed Dsupported解析：Mrs Clarke凭借智慧捉到了小偷，自然在女子俱乐部受人羡慕/受到了赞扬。Admire有“夸奖，赞扬”的意思。答案：A15A.selfsatisfaction Bselfprotection Cselfrespect Dselfservice解析：结合全文，可知她这种做
14、法是“自我保护”，故用selfprotection。答案：B.阅读理解Adam Smith，writing in the 1770s，was the first person to see the importance of the division of labour and to explain part of its advantages. He gives us an example the process by which pins were made in England. “One man draws out the wire，another strengthens it，a t
15、hird cuts it，a fourth points it，a fifth grinds(磨光滑) it at the top to prepare it to receive the head. To make the head requires two or three distinct operations. To put it on is a separate operation，to polish the pins is another. And the important business of making pins is，in this manner，divided int
16、o about eighteen distinct operations，which in some factories are all performed by different people，though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them. ”“Ten men，” Smith said，“in this way，turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4,800 pins a piece. But if all of them had
17、 worked separately and independently without division of labour，they certainly could not turn out any pin，each of them would have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps not even one.”There can be no doubt that division of labour is a way of organising work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith
18、 saw this but its a pity he also took it for granted that division of labour is in itself responsible for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labour adds nothing new；it only enables people to
19、produce more of what they already have.【文章大意】 本文介绍Adam Smith首先提出劳动分工的重要性并解释其优越性，但遗憾的是他想当然认为劳动分工就自然会加快经济增长，促进经济发展。1According to the passage，Adam Smith was the first person to _. Atake advantage of the division of labour Bunderstand the effects of the division of labour Cexplain the causes of the divi
20、sion of labour Dintroduce the division of labour into England解析：细节理解题。文章第一句提到Adam Smith是注意劳动分工重要性的第一人，也就是说他看出劳动分工所带来的效益，故B项是正确答案。答案：B2Adam Smith saw that the division of labour _. Aenabled each worker to make pins more quickly and more cheaply Bincreased the number of people employed in factories Ci
21、ncreased the possible output per worker Dimproved the quality of pins produced 解析：细节理解题。第二段Smith解释说：“10个人这样分工协作一天可以生产12磅的针或者一人大约4 800根针；但如果他们所有人单独做不分工协作，他们当然不能生产任何针，(至多)每个人要生产只能生产20根一天，或者一根也生产不了。”由此可知Adam Smith看出劳动分工提高了每个工人可能提高的生产率。答案：C3Adam Smith mentioned the number 4,800 in order to _. Ashow the
22、advantages of the division of labour Bemphasize how powerful the individual worker was Cshow the advantages of the old craft system Demphasize the importance of increased production 解析：写作意图题。作者在解释劳动分工后带来的益处时提到，每个人可以生产4 800根，所以作者提到4 800这个数字是为了显示劳动分工的优越性。答案：A4According to the writer，Adam Smiths mistak
23、e was in believing that division of labour _. Acertainly led to economic development Bwas a good way of organising work Cincreased the production of existing goods Dwas an important development in methods of production解析：细节理解题。第三段第三句提到Adam Smith看到了这一点(劳动分工是组织安排工作的好方法)，但可惜的是他想当然地认为劳动一分工就会导致经济增长，所以作者认
24、为，Adam Smith错在相信劳动分工必然会促使经济发展。答案：A5Which of the following could serve as an appropriate title for the passage? AThe Theory of Division of Labour BAdam Smith as the Discoverer of Division of Labour CAdam Smith，the English Economist DDivision of Labour，a Good Way of Organizing Work解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，文章围绕Adam Smith提出劳动分工的重要性并解释其优越性。作者同时指出他对劳动分工看法的局限性，所以文章的主题用“劳动分工，一种组织工作的好方法”比较贴切。答案：D
