分析 本文主要讲述了Jean Paul Getty的生平.他靠自己的努力挣了很多钱,但是他舍不得花钱.他一生结了5次婚,离了5次婚,并且很少与五个孩子一起,他的孩子也都不快乐,所以钱也没有给他带来幸福.但他创立的艺术博物馆对当地的艺术做出了巨大的贡献.
解答 52.Getty made a fortune by himself.段落大意题.第一段没有主旨句,但是通过对整段内容的把握,我们可以看出,Jean Paul Getty挣了很多钱,但是靠自己努力的结果,没有靠父亲的帮忙.故填Getty made a fortune byhimself.
53.didn't make his family happy/didn't bring a happy family 第一个词是but,与前文形成转折关系,第一段说Getty很有钱,但是第二段中说他结了5次婚,离了5次婚,很少与五个孩子一起,他的孩子也都不快乐,所以应该填钱没有带来幸福.故填didn't make his family happy/didn't bring a happy family.
54.Although Getty had a lot of money,he was a mean person.本题是用英语"解释",而不是用中文"翻译",关键是短语"inspite of",可以将其转换为though或although等表让步的连词;great wealth即rich或wealthy之意;且根据后文的叙述可以推测miser为"舍不得花钱的人;守财奴"等之意,故填Although Getty had a lot of money,he was a mean person.
55.They took Getty's grandson and demanded a lot of money 根据第四段的"kidnapperstook his 16-year-old grandson,and demanded a large amount of money for his safereturn"可知答案.
56.He made a great contribution to the local art.最后一段中介绍了Getty对他创立的艺术博物馆的贡献,从而说明他对艺术做出了巨大的贡献.故填He made a great contribution to the local art.
