题目内容

16．It's reported that the fire had burned for quite some time ______ it was brought under control．（　　）

A．

since

B．

when

C．

once

D．

before

分析据报道，大火在被控制之前燃烧了很长一段时间．

解答答案：D．
根据对句子的分析可知大火燃烧很久应该是发生在火势被控制之前，而且根据句中的时态had burned为过去完成时也可推断出来；所以用before来引导时间状语从句；故选D．本句中it为形式主语，that引导的为一主语从句，而在主语从句中又包含了一个before引导的时间状语从句．bring sth under control将…控制住．

点评对于不同的连词要明白他们所连接的状语从句，然后结合句意再判断所选用的连接词．

4．Aisling's mother died at midsummer．She had fallen sick so suddenly that some of the villagers wondered if the fairies had come and taken her，for she was still young and beautiful．She was buried three days later beneath the hawthorn tree（山楂树） behind the house，just as twilight was darkening the sky．
Maire Solanya，the village greenwitch，came that evening to perform the old rituals over the grave．She stood at the foot of the mound of black soil．Aisling and her father stood at the head of it，resting on the simple headstone，was the burning candle．Aisling's father had lit it shortly after Elinor died，and it would burn all night．The gravestone was a plain piece of slate carved with her name：Elinor．Grass and tree roots would grow up around it as the years passed，until it would seem as if it had always been there．
Maire Solanya said in her low，clear voice，"Life to life，from breath to breath，we remember Elinor．"She held a round loaf of bread in her hands．She tore off a small piece and ate it，chewing deliberately，before handing the loaf to Aisling's father．He pulled off his own piece，then passed it to his daughter．It was still warm，and it smelled like her mother's kitchen after baking．But it hadn't come from her mother's hands，and that realization made a lump rise in her throat．The bread was tasteless．
Maire Solanya took the loaf from her，its crust（面包皮） gaping open，and placed it on the gravestone next to the candle．Aisling couldn't shake the feeling that her mother had merely gone out on an errand and would come home at any moment and wonder what the three of them were doing．It didn't seem possible that she was buried there，at the foot of the hawthorn tree，in the ground．It was easier to believe the village rumors than to sit with the ache inside herself．
She remembered those rumors now，while she stood with her father and Maire Solanya in a tense silence．Everyone had always said that Elinor had some magic in her，and everyone knew that fairies-if they existed-were drawn to that．So Aisling's father had ordered all the old rituals，even though he did not believe in them，just in case．She was not entirely sure what she herself believed，but she knew that her mother would want them to do these rituals for her，and that was enough．
When the sun slipped below the horizon，the greenwitch said，"Sleep in peace，Elinor，"and scattered a gold powder over the grave to bind Elinor to the earth．On the freshly turned soil，the gold glittered like fairly dust．

73．Aisling and her family are most likelyB．

B．simple village folk

74．Maire Solanya performed the rituals in order toC．

76．Which statement best describes Aisling's belief in fairies？B
A．She is uncertain and finds the idea unsettling．
B．She finds the idea comforting but is unsure．
C．She is certain they exist and wishes they would bring back her mother．
D．She believes strongly in the power of their rituals but not in their existence．
77．Why did Aisling find the bread"tasteless"？A
A．It reminded her of her mother's absence．
B．It was a terribly rude thing to eat at her mother's funeral．
C．Solanya was really a poor baker in the village．
D．There had not been sufficient ingredients to make the bread．

1．The following card includes a brief summary and a short assessment of a research paper．It can provide a guide for further reading on the topic．

In this article Trevor et al．review the influences of pay and job opportunities in respect of job performance，turnover rates and employees'job attitude．The authors use data gained through organizational surveys of blue-chip companies in Vancouver，Canada to try to identify the main cause of employee turnover and whether it is linked to salary growth．Their research focuses on assessing a range of pay structures such as pay for performance and organizational reward plans．The article is useful as Trevor et al．suggest that there are numerous reasons for employee turnover and a variety of differences in employees'job attitude and performance．The main limitation of the article is that the survey sample was restricted to mid-level management，thus the authors indicate that further，more extensive research needs to be undertaken to develop a more in-depth understanding of employee turnover and job performance．As this article was published in a professional journal，the findings can be considered reliable．It will be useful additional information for the research on pay structures．

69．The research paper published is primarily concerned withC

A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower. To get the most out of your visit, read our tips below：

Visit at Night

Riding up the Eiffel Tower at night and looking out over the streets of Paris, you’ll see why Paris is known as the “City of Light”. At street level，the spotlights on the top of the Tower zoom across the Paris skyline, and the reflections of the Tower in the Seine are sights not to be missed.

Before entering the Eiffel Tower, your bags will be examined by a security officer.
