题目内容

13．Pisco is a city on the Peruvian coast，the home of Peruvian grape liquor（酒） Pisco has not only given its name to Peru's national drink，but it is also the centre of its production．
Pisco has its origins in the 16th-century Spanish conquests（征服） of Latin America and particularly Peru and Chile．There the settlers found fertile land suitable for growing grapes．These vineyards（葡萄园） were so successful that soon the settlers were exporting crops back to Europe．
At first，grapes not suitable for making wines were distilled（蒸馏，提取） into a drink，and it soon became popular with sailors who began taking bottles with them back to Europe．They named it after the town where it was bought，Pisco，which in turn had been used to name the round pot that was used to store the liquor．
In the 19th century Pisco became a popular drink with the miners who flooded to San Francisco during the Gold Rush，and in the 1940s it again became a fashionable drink in New York and Hollywood．Production gradually spread from Peru to Chile．
However，Pisco is also the topic of heated arguments between Peru and Chile，both of which claim to have invented it．They may fight bitterly over who first distilled the drink，but the rules and regulations they have placed on its production have ensured that only top quality Pisco hits the liquor store shelves．
Nowadays，Pisco is produced using both ancient and modern techniques and can be enjoyed in its pure form or used to prepare various cocktails，such as the well-known"Pisco Sour"．This is served in the best restaurants in Latin America and throughout the world．It can also be mixed with other liqueurs，fruit juice or soft drinks．The main markets for Pisco are currently the United States，Chile，Costa Rica，Venezuela and Canada．

45．It can be learned from the passage that Pisco refers to the following exceptB．
A．a city B．a sailor C．a pot D．a drink
46．The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph impliesC．
A．Peru and Chile has been fighting for the American market of Pisco
B．It makes no difference who has invented Pisco as long as it is popular
C．Both Peru and Chile have set strict production rules to produce a quality drink
D．Pisco is produced using both ancient and modern techniques from two countries
47．What's the best title for this passage？A
A．An Introduction to Pisco B．The Production of Pisco
C．The Origin of Pisco D．A History Lesson of Pisco．

分析本文主要讲述了皮斯科城市的酒的历史发展．皮斯科是一座秘鲁海岸城市，起源于16世纪的西班牙征服的拉丁美洲，其中特别是秘鲁和智利．这里的定居者把种植成功的葡萄出口，然后开始了对葡萄酿造成酒的技术的探索并获得了成功．如今，皮斯科生产用古代和现代技术，酿造了多种广受欢迎的酒品，并有了稳定的对外市场．

解答 45．B 推理判断题．从第一段：Pisco is a city on the Peruvian coast，the home of Peruvian grape liquor（酒） Pisco has not only given its name to Peru's national drink．"皮斯科是一个秘鲁海岸城市，是秘鲁葡萄酒的家乡．皮斯科不仅给了它秘鲁国酒的称号，"因此可排除A项，从第三段可知，Pisco，which in turn had been used to name the round pot that was used to store the liquor．皮斯科，进而被用于命名存储液体的圆罐酒．可排除C项．从文章总体可知，皮斯科城市和酒有关，因此排除D项．故选B．
46． C 句意理解题．此句意为：他们关于谁第一次蒸馏出饮料的斗争激烈，但在生产上的规则确保了只有高质量的皮斯科酒才能被放到商店的酒架上．题中C选项．秘鲁和智利设立严格的生产制度来生产高质量的饮料．与文意基本相符，故选C．
47．A 标题判断题．文章主要是围绕Pisco展开的，并通过对皮斯科的酒的改革来详细介绍了它的历史发展和现况．故选A．

Businessman Li Liang acquired the aircraft from Indonesian airline Batavia Air, but then he had to go through six mouths of exhausting custom(海关)procedures in order to get the aircraft into China.” Demounting(拆卸), port, shipping, business license, trade declaration…All these procedures were never done by anybody before, which means I had to go through them one by one,” Li said.
