【題目】閱讀理解
Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today's world to find work for everybody. The economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often it is not possible(可能的) and so more and more people are without work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work of many people in shorter time.
Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holidays. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine often can do the work of forty people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.
（1）If the economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world grow by 4% each year, ________.
A.people will have no jobs
B.4% of the people will have jobs too
C.people can have the same number of jobs as before
D.96% of the people will have jobs.
（2）One machine can do as much work as ________.
A.40 people
B.75,000 people
C.70% of the people
D.96% of the people will have jobs
（3）Which of the following is not true?
A.Most people want to have jobs.
B.Machines need more money and longer holiday.
C.Now more people are without jobs.
D.Machines are taking work from people not only in factories but also on farms.

【答案】
（1）C
（2）A
（3）B
【解析】本文是一篇議論文，人們都需要工作來(lái)維持生活，但是世界經(jīng)濟(jì)的增長(zhǎng)并不能滿足人們的這一要求。而且機(jī)器在工廠里或者農(nóng)場(chǎng)里廣泛使用，這樣更加造成了越來(lái)越多的人失業(yè)。
（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“The economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people.”可知，世界經(jīng)濟(jì)每年增長(zhǎng)4%，這樣才能維持原來(lái)的工作數(shù)量給人們。根據(jù)這一句話可知C選項(xiàng)和原文意思相同，故選C。
（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“One machine often can do the work of forty people.”可知，一臺(tái)機(jī)器可以做40個(gè)人的工作。由此可知應(yīng)選A。
（3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holidays.”可知，機(jī)器不需要錢，也不要長(zhǎng)假，因此B選項(xiàng)的表述和原文相反，是錯(cuò)誤的，選B。根據(jù)第一段中的“Most people want to work、so more and more people are without work”和第二段中的“machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms”可知其他三項(xiàng)都符合文意。

I will never forget the tenth summer of my childhood with my grandfather in western Norway at the mountain farm where my mother was born.

One day my grandfather said, “Come. I have something for you.” I f 【1】 him to a workroom. “You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal,” he said. Great, I thought, looking around for the boat. But there was n 【2】 . Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. “The boat is in there,” he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me h 【3】 to use them properly. “It’ll be a fine boat, and you’ll make it with your own hands,” he said. “No one can give you what you do for yourself.” The w 【4】 rang in my head as I worked. Finally I finished the boat. It wasn’t much to look at, but I was p 【5】 . Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.

We had to return to America. “You cannot bring that boat home with you,” my mother said. We already had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I h 【6】 my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal.

I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would n 【7】 see him again.

In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise, for 34 years my treasure s 【8】 here, waiting for my return. I felt we three were together again

a 【9】 my grandfather had died 22 years before.

After that, I returned to the lake five times. Each time I held the boat and carved the year, my g 【10】 seemed near.

My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine, 13; Claire, 12. At Storvassdal, Claire said softly, “Grandpa, someday I’ll come back.” She added, “And I’ll bring my children.”
