题目内容

【题目】 --- Your sister _________ almost all her spare time to studying when she was in high school.

--- That’s right, or she _________ great success in the College Entrance Examination.

A. devoted; wouldn’t have achieved

B. spent; wouldn’t have achieved

C. devoted; hadn’t achieved

D. hadn’t spent; couldn’t achieve

【答案】A

【解析】

试题分析:本题第一空考察的是固定搭配devote some time to sth/doing sth致力于某事/做某事;第二空的关键词是or否则,要不然;表示的是一个含蓄的条件句,相当于If she hadn’t devoted almost all her spare time to studying when she was in high school.这是一个与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,后面的主句要使用情态动词+have done。句义:当你的姐姐在高中的时候,她几乎把所有的时间都用在了学习方面。那是对的,要不然她就不会再高考中取得巨大的成功。故A正确。

【题目】The British----and especially the English----are bad at complaining. Because of British politeness rules, according to which conflict should be avoided, people either just do not complain, or sometimes bottle it up and then outpour it in another way in other umimportant situations. In fact, there is a TV programme which show the British in typical situations where they would be perfectly reasonable in complaining, but they don’t. In one scene, a woman reads a newspaper over people’s shoulders and the people say nothing or look embarrassed.

The British are also well-known for putting up with bad service everywhere from restaurants to airports and railway stations because the standard rules of behaviour say that it is bad to draw attention to yourself. This is why, when you travel on the tube in London and there is yet another delay, the passengers will look at each other, sigh, smile wearily and raise their eyes to heaven. They might even say, “Huh! Typical!” in a resigned(顺从的)tone of voice that says that there’s nothing that can be done about it. When complaints are made, they are made in an apologetic or a humorous tone of voice. In France ,on the other hand, angry passengers might riot(闹事)and burn down the subway station if they had to put up with the poor service that the London underground provides.

Americans and other Europeans, who are much more direct and in-your-face than the British, often wonder why British people always say “sorry” or “excuse me” when they complain. “It’s like they’re apologizing for something that isn’t their fault, they say. They are missing the point. British people are not really sorry ---it is because the word ‘sorry’ actually works as a distancing skill. This is important in terms of negative politeness and not drawing attention to yourself. If you do not say ‘sorry’ or use other distancing words like ‘could’, ‘would’, ‘might’, ‘possibly’ and so on, you will be seen as rude.”
