41、p是谓语。第四个是in that连词，义：因为。写作方法与文章大意 文章论述“强劲证券市场”的种种情况。首先是联邦储备委员会为保持强股市基础要求保证金率增长。这种增长过去，现在，将来都能巩固强市。其次由于绝大部分集中在兰筹股上，使股市看好上升趋于保守，引出行业股比普通股吃香。最后是投资者心情和股市强弱有关。答案祥解1. B. 强劲证券市场（强市）。见难句译注1和第一段第三句：“那种保证金率的增长有力的巩固了强劲证券市场。从19年起，这种增长导致一年来股市屡创新高。A. 买出股票的时候。 C. 提高保证金率。 D. 钢的市盈率。这三项都不对，它们只是文中涉及的方面。2. D. 他寻找高业绩（即公
42、司的产量或投资收益）。见文章倒数第三句：“当投资者公众和团体机构紧张而又悲观时，他们肯定在买进股票上举棋不定；他们寻求低价格/利润倍数和高额利润。A. 他们寻求联邦储备委员会的帮助。 B. 他们买进钢材。 C. 他们买进汽车股票。3. A. 因为在决定定价/利润比上难以分析。见第二段第二句：“在过去的投资保证上我们一直表达了这样的思想：行业股票在使用上可能超过普通股。我们依然相信情况可能就是这样。举例说：钢股往往在一定价格/利润比上抛出。低于一定比率，可认为股是好价值，而高于一定比率就是超价。如果一个公司就生产独一无二的产品，那市场分析就很难对公司所得定出数比。“B. 因为股市活动受兰筹股所限
43、。 C. 因为行情上升保守。这两项见难句译注3。 D. 由于联邦储备基金会的行动。4. A. 他们寻求加速的增长。见文章倒数第二句：“同样是这些股民，当投资者（对股市前景）持乐观态度时，他们不太关注（公司的）业绩（产值）而愿意以高价来购买具有高成长性的股票。”【2015高考复习】阅读理解Looking at Chinas history over the past 60 years，it is apparent that，despite much suffering，the country has achieved huge political，economic and social succ

52、nks and other vehicles.答案D推理判断题。D项由文章第四段中“.showed some of Chinas latest achievements in defense modernization.”可知仪式上展示的是我国国防现代化方面的最新成果，而D项中automotive modernization与文意表述不符，故说法错误。19Whats the subject discussed in the text?AThe celebration of 60th anniversary of the founding of New China.BThe grand parade in the ceremony.CThe defense modernization in China.DThe economic development during recent years.答案A主旨大意题。由文章题目再结合文章大意可知A项是最具概括性的表述，体现了文章主旨。B项和C项均为仪式的表现形式，而非主旨；D项文章中未提及。故答案为A。
