8、r the first shock the pain became bearable, and he gathered up his parachute before limping into the trees to hide it as best he could. The hardness of the ground and the deep darkness made it almost impossible to do this efficiently. The pine needles lay several inches deep so he simply piled them

9、on top of the parachute, cutting the short twigs that he could feel around his legs, and spreading them on top of the needles.

10、rom his parachute he began to make his way downhill through the trees. He had to find out where he was, and then decide what to do next.

14、o the border.”Far above him on the mountainside he could hear the faint echo of voices, startling him after great silence.

25、13. 单选题Resale price Maintenance is the name used when a retailer is compelled to sell at a price fixed by the manufacturer instead of choosing for himself how much to add on to the wholesale price he pays for his supplies. This practice is associated with the sale of “branded” goods, which now form

26、a very considerable proportion of consumers purchases, and it has led to a great deal of controversy.Generally such articles are packed and advertised by the manufacturers, who try to create a special “image” in the minds of possible purchasers an image made up of die look of the article, its use, i

27、ts price and everything else which might lead purchasers to ask for that brand rather than any other. If a retailer is allowed to choice any price he likes he may find it worthwhile to sell one brand at “cut” prices even though this involves a loss, because he hopes to attract customers to the shop

28、where they may be persuaded to buy many other types of goods at higher prices. The manufacturer of the brand that has been “cut” fears that the retailer may be tempted to reduce the services on this article; but even if he does not there is a danger; that the customer becomes unsettled, and is unwil

29、ling to pay the “standard” price of the article because he feels that he is being “done”. This may, and indeed often does, affect the reputation of the manufacturer and lose him his market in the long run.It is sometimes said also that the housewife who is the principal buyer of most of these goods

30、prefers a fixed price because she knows where she is and is saved the bother of going from shop to shop in search of lower prices. If one shop cut all the prices of its banded goods she would undoubtedly have an advantage in shopping there. But this does not happen. A store usually the price of one

31、or two of its articles which act as a decoy and makes up its losses on others, and changes the cut-price articles from week to week so as to attract different groups of customers. And so the housewife may feel rather guilty if she does not spend time tracking down the cheaper goods. How far this is

32、true is a matter of temperament and it is impossible to estimate what proportion if purchasers prefer a price that they can rely on wherever they choose to buy and what proportion enjoy the challenge involved in finding the store that offers them a bargain.Those who oppose Resale Price Maintenance,

33、on the other hand, point out that there are now a great many different channels of distribution chain stores, department stores, cooperative stores, independent or unit shops, supermarkets, mail-order houses, and so on. It would be absurd to assume that all of them price? If they were allowed to cho

34、ose for themselves, the more efficient retailers would sell at lower prices and consumers would benefit. As it is, the retail price must be sufficient to cover the costs of the efficient avenues of distribution and this means the others make a bigger profit than necessary at the expense of the publi

35、c. The supporters of the fixes price argue that this is only half the story. The efficient trader can still compete without lowering his prices. He can offer better service long credit, or quick delivery or a pleasant shop decor or helpful assistantsand can do this without imperiling the long-term i

36、nterests of the manufacturer.1.Manufacturers oppose retailers cutting prices on their goods mainly because they think（ ）.2.Supporters of the fixed price bold that an efficient trader can still make money without lowering prices by（ ）.3.By saying “He feels that he is being done, the author means that

37、 customer thinks（ ）.4.Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the passage?5.The sentence “She knows where she is in the third paragraph can be paraphrased as（ ）问题1选项A.retailers may eventually stop selling their productsB.it may reduce customers confidence in their productsC.customers

39、himC.someone is blackmailing himD.someone is cheating him问题4选项A.Good service other than price is important in attracting customersB.An article without a brand name is not subject to Resale Price MaintenanceC.Manufacturers attempt to influence possible purchasers by making their products easy to iden

40、tity.D.Housewives prefer fixed prices because fixed prices are much less likely to fluctuate.问题5选项A.She knows her placeB.She knows her stuffC.She feels secureD.She feels intoxicated【答案】第1题:D第2题:A第3题:D第4题:A第5题:C【解析】第1题:文章第二段第三句话The manufacturer of the brand that has been cut fears that the retailer m

41、ay be tempted to reduce the services on this article,生产商担心那个商品降价会导致零售商降低对该商品顾客的服务，所以选项D符合题意。第2题:文章最后一段最后一句话He can offer better service long credit, or quick delivery or a pleasant shop decor or helpful assistants，零售商为顾客提供更优质的服务，比如延长支付时间，快速送货或者把店面装饰得很漂亮，或者找一些有用的助手，选项A符合题意。第3题:sb. is being done “某人被欺骗

42、”，所以选项D符合题意。第4题:文章第一段提到this practice is associated with the sale of “branded” goods，这种做法是跟品牌货物相连的，所以可以推论不是名牌的商品不受固定价格的约束，所以选项B排除；第二段generally such articles are packed and advertised by the manufacturers, who try to create a special image in the minds of possible purchasers，生厂商希望在潜在的顾客心中塑造一个特别的形象，所以选

43、项C排除；第三段it is sometimes said also that the housewife who is the principal buyer of most of these goods prefers，家庭主妇们会感到安全，避免为了寻找更低的价格从一家商店跑到另一家，所以选项D排除。因此选项A符合题意。第5题:根据上下文可知家庭主妇喜欢固定的价格是因为这样可以不用在不同商店之间来回比价格，并且还说到如果没有去价格更便宜的商店买东西，她们会感到懊恼，所以可以判断 she knows where she is是感到安全的意思。选项C符合题意。14. 单选题There was a

44、 group of demonstrators（ ）anti-government slogans in the square.问题1选项A.crowingB.chantingC.intoningD.crooning【答案】B【解析】考查动词词义辨析。crowing“啼叫”；chanting“喊叫，歌颂”；intoning“吟咏”；crooning“柔情低唱”。句意：一群游行示威者在广场上有节奏的高喊反政府的口号。选项B符合题意。15. 单选题The workers chose to （ ）their dissatisfaction in a series of strikes.问题1选项A.

45、deliverB.offerC.manifestD.indicate【答案】C【解析】考查动词辨析。deliver “交付；发表”；offer “提供；出价”；manifest “证明，表明”；indicate”预示，象征”。句意：工人们选择用罢工来表明他们的不满。选项C符合题意。16. 单选题A trade group for liquor retailers put out a press release with an alarming headline: “Millions of Kids Buy Internet Alcohol, Landmark Survey Reveals.”T

46、he announcement, from the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America received wide media attention. On NBCs Today Show, Lea Thompson said, “According to a new online survey, one in 10 teenagers have an underage friend who has ordered beer, wine or liquor over the internet. More than a third think they

47、can easily do it and nearly half think they wont get caught.” Several newspapers mentioned the study, including USA Today and the Record of New Jersey. The news even made Australias Gold Coast Bulletin.Are millions of kids really buying booze online? To arrive at that jarring headline, the group use

48、d some questionable logic to pump up results from a survey that was already tilted in favor of finding a large number of online buyer.For starters, consider the source. The trade group that commissioned the survey has long fought efforts to expand online sales of alcohol; its members are local distr

49、ibutors who compete with online liquor sellers. Some of the news coverage pointed out that conflict of interest, though reports didnt delve more deeply into how the numbers were computed.The Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America hired Teenage Research Unlimited, a research company, to design the s

50、tudy. Teenage Research, in turn, hired San Diego polling firm Luth Research to put the questions to 1,001 people between the ages of 14 and 20in an online survey. Luth gets people to participate in its surveys in part by advertising them online and offering small cash awardstypically less than $5 fo

51、r short surveys.People who agree to participate in online surveys are, by definition, internet users, something that not all teens are. (Also, people who actually take the time to complete such surveys may be more likely to be active, or heavy internet users.) Its safe to say that kids who use the i

52、nternet regularly are more likely to shop online than those who dont. Teenage Research Unlimited told me it weighted the survey results to adjust for age, sex, ethnicity and geography of respondents, but had no way to adjust for degree of internet usage.Regardless, the survey found that, after weigh

53、ting, just 2.1 points of the 1,001 respondents bought alcohol onlinecompared with 56 points who had consumed alcohol. Making the questionable assumption that their sample was representative of all Americans aged 14 to 20 with access to the internetand not just those with the time and inclination to

54、participate in online surveysthe researchers concluded that 551,000 were buying alcohol online.But that falls far short of the reported “millions of kids”. To justify that headline, the wholesalers group focused on another part of the survey that asked respondents if they knew a teen who had purchas

55、ed alcohol online. Some 12 points said they did. Of course, its ridiculous to extrapolate from a state like thatone buyer could be known by many people, and its impossible to measure overlap. Consider a high school of 1,000 students, with 20 who have bought booze on line and 100 who know about the p

56、urchases. If 100 of the schools students are surveyed at random, youd expect to find two who have bought and 10 who know someone who hasbut that still represents only two buyers, not 10.（Not to mention the fact that thinking you know someone who has ordered beer online is quite different from orderi

57、ng a six pack yourself.）Karen Gravois Elliott, a spokeswoman for the wholesalers group, told me, “The numbers are real,” but referred questions about methodology to Teenage Research. When I asked her about the potential problems of conducting the survey online, she said the medium was a strength of

58、the survey: “We specifically wanted to look at the teenage online population.”Nahme Chokeir, a vice president of client service for San Diego-based Luth Research Inc., told me that some of his online panel comes from word of mouth, which wouldnt necessarily skew toward heavy internet users. He added

59、 that some clients design surveys to screen respondents by online usage, though Teenage Research didnt.I asked Michael Wood, a vice president at Teenage Research who worked on the survey, whether one could say, as the liquor trade group did, that millions of teenagers had bought alcohol online. “You

60、 cant,” he replied, adding, “This is their press release.”1.Which of the following is the message that this passage is trying to convey?2.According to the author, what is wrong with the report about kids buying alcohol?3.Which of the following words is closest in meaning to the word “extrapolate” in

61、 paragraph 8?4.By saying “To justify that headline, the wholesalers group focused on another part of the survey that asked respondents if they knew a teen who had purchased alcohol online”, the author implies that（ ）.5.Which of the following is more likely to be the source for problems in this surve

62、y?问题1选项A.The severe social consequences of kids buying alcohol online.B.The hidden drawback of the American educational system.C.The influence of wide coverage of news media.D.The problems in statistic methodology in social survey.问题2选项A.It is unethical to offer cash awards to subjects of survey.B.The numbers in this report were falsified.C.The samples and statistic methods were not used logically.D.The study designers and survey conductors were bribed.问题3选项A.Conduct.B.Infer.C.Deduct.D.Whittle.问题4选项A.it is absurd to conduct a survey among teenagersB.the ways th
