1、People do not always know this and are shocked if their good faith is called 4 . An old and very wealthy friend of mine told me he had an extremely unpleasant experience. He went to a famous jewelry shop which keeps a large 5 of precious stones and asked to be shown some pearl necklaces. After exami

The assistant said that this was quite 6 but the moment my friend signed his name, he was invited into the managers office.The manager was very polite, but he explained that someone with
3、exactly the same name had presented them with a worthless Cheque not long ago. My friend got very angry when he heard this and said he would buy a necklace somewhere else.

8、y在很大程度上,主要地 D thoroughly非常,完全;仔细,缜密本题考核的知识点是:常识+副词辨析。快速解题空格所在的句子是全文首句,基本结构完整,句意清楚。因此,考生关键要判断哪个副词代入文中符合逻辑语义。根据常识,“支票已经确切地、事实上或完全取代了现金”均不符合事实逻辑,只有largely代入文中强调“支票在很大程度上取代现金”符合逻辑,因此C为正确选项。篇章分析第一段介绍故事发生的背景。句是全文引子。句指出支票已成为普及的付款手段的事实,句转折指出支票付款存在的问题及带来的结果:有时店员可能不接受支票付款。空格设置本题考查句中做状语的程度副词largely,例句:He resig
9、ned largely because of the stories in the press.他的辞职多半是因为新闻界的一些报道。 干扰项设置其他项都是常用副词,且thoroughly也是程度副词。例句:I know exactly how she felt.我完全清楚她的感受。Tell me what really happened.告诉我究竟发生了什么事。Now I really must go.我确实得走了。Im thoroughly confused.我完全给搞糊涂了。The work had not been done very thoroughly.这工作做得不太认真。2. A
10、danger危险,危害 B chance可能性;机会,时机;风险C risk危险,风险 D opportunity时机,机会固定搭配。快速解题上文说支票并非真正的钱(not real money),本身是没有价值的(valueless)。本句紧接着指出当店员接受支票时,他总是在。根据逻辑,既然支票无价值,那么接受支票付款应当“存在风险性”,上下两句间暗含着因果的逻辑关系。空格处填入的名词做runs的宾语,runs a certain 2 即应表示店员“冒险”的含义。选项中,只有risk可以与run搭配,run the risk (of doing sth)/run risks表示“冒的危险,冒
11、险(做某事)”,符合文意。其他项或不符合文中搭配,或不符合文意,应排除。篇章分析句是过渡句,由上文泛泛而谈支票支付的问题具体到在商店购物时使用支票的情况,并引出下文两段关于此的一次具体经历的讲述。空格设置本题考查了risk的固定动宾搭配。Investment is all about running risks.投资就是要冒风险。We dont want to run the risk of losing their business.我们不想冒险失去他们的生意。其他包含risk的表示“冒险”的搭配还有at the risk of doing sth冒着的风险,at risk to sb/st
12、h冒伤及的危险,take a risk/take risks(to do sth)冒险(做某事)。干扰项设置其他项都是常用名词。其中,danger构成对risk的近义干扰,chance与opportunity近义,构成对risk的反义干扰。danger常做不可数名词,如:in/out of danger处于危险中/脱离危险,当表示“危险,坏事发生的可能性”时可用作可数或不可数,后面必须接of sth或that同位语从句进行修饰,如:There is a danger that the political disorder of the past will return.昔日的政治动乱现在有可能
13、重演。chance常表示希望发生的事的可能性,如:There is no chance that he will change his mind.他不可能改变主意。它还与opportunity近义,表示“时机”,如:Youll have the chance/opportunity to ask any questions at the end.你们最后将有机会提问任何问题。注意chance也可指“风险,冒险”,常与take搭配,如:When installing electrical equipment dont take any chances. A mistake could kill.安装电器设备时千万不要冒险,弄错了有可能出人命。3. A within在(某段时间、距离、范围或限度)之内B beyond在(或向)较远的一边;晚于;超出
