15.Whenever I see anyone buying a National Lottery ticket,I want to stop them and ask if they know just where their money is going.The lottery money is supposed to go to charity,but it makes me angry to see some of the so-called"good causes"that it's being used to support.Also,Camelot,the organizers,have made a profit of£10.8million in five months.We hear that a lot of that money is boosting(increasing) the pay packets of the company's bosses.
For the past 10years I've been helping to raise funds for a cancer research charity called Tenovus.My husband,Sandy,died from cancer 11years ago when he was only 51.There's been a long line of deaths in our family through cancer and it's been destructive.I've also lost two sisters-in-law,my brother,Michael,my father-in-law and my father.That's apart from several close friends
The charity is 50years old now and raises money mainly for breast cancer research.It also runs a support line for the families of cancer sufferers.Our local group raises£3million and half that money came from sales of our own lottery tickets at supermarkets.But our income has dropped by half since the National Lottery was introduced.
I'm not against people playing the National Lottery,but they should think about what they're doing.The chances of winning the cumulative amount of money are so small; they might as well throw their money away.The Government tells us that the proceeds (收益)are going to things like the arts and sports,but what about the National Health Service?They should give some cash to that,too.How can they justify spending ridiculous amounts of cash on so-called works of art like display of potatoes or buying up Winston Churchill's papers at a cost of£12million?
So who really are the winners in the National Lottery?When I think of all that money people could be donating to cancer research,I could weep.It's time people realized how charities across the country are suffering because of the National Lottery.It's disappointing and so frustrating.

分析 彩票机构虽然号称是慈善团体却借此盈利丰厚.过去的十年里,我一直为一家叫做TENOVUS的癌症慈善机构筹资,如今它已成立50年了,但是自从彩票的出现,我们的癌症慈善机构除了一半来自我们自己的彩票收入外,其余的善款减少了整整一倍.我不是反对人们玩彩票,但他们至少应该想想他们在做什么.
解答 66.C 根据第三段There's been a long line of deaths in our family through cancer and it's been destructive.可知,作者家中有好几位亲人死于癌症,所以促使她为攻克癌症而筹集资金,故答案为C
67.A 考查对全文的整体把握.文中作者一直都是以第一口吻的新方式来阐述个人观点,表露情绪的,如提到"Whenever I see anyone buying a National Lottery ticket I want to stop them and ask if they know just where their money is going","I'm not against people playing the National Lottery,but they should think about what they're doing",这些都不是在客观的论证基金积累的问题.故选A.
68.B 释义题.第四段第三句中提到"我们当地的团体组织",即"Tenovous"的下属机构.D项文中未提到;B项与文意符合;A项和C项明显不对.故选B.
69.C 考查对作者意图的理解.文章一直在说彩票的去处.A项说"人们在国家彩票上投入更多的钱",明显跟作者的意思相矛盾;B项扭解了作者的意思,作者是在惋惜彩票业的收入不能全用于慈善事业;D项不全面.故选C.
70.B 推理题.通看全文,很明显作者的观点是反对国家彩票的,所以A项是错误的;B项是正确的;作者说"彩票收入本应用于慈善事业",并没有说用于癌症研究.所以C不正确;D项的表述不能概括作者对彩票业与慈善事业关系的看法.故选B.
点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是,仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案,这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱.所谓阅读理解,对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文,因此,每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查,再得出答案.也就是说,阅读理解的每一道题目,在原文都应该有明确的出处,我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句,(1)排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项(2)排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 (3)排除用于过于极端或负面的选项(4)注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除.
