这篇短文给我们讲述的是英国彩票中出的最大的奖—五千六百万英镑,获奖者是两个人,他们都非常的激动,想要用这些钱买房子、汽车,去环游世界。
【1】句意:你不必停在那里,你可以买很多车或者很多贵的房子。cheap 便宜的;expensive贵的;thin瘦的;small小的。根据文意可知,如果中了五千六百万你会怎么做?这是很多钱,可以买很多汽车,能买贵的房子,故应选B。
【2】句意:在英国最大的奖金中,Nigel Page 和Justine Laycock在上周六得到了五千六百万英镑的钱。 cost花费;费用;bill账单;money钱;prize奖励,奖品。根据句中….got their £56 million可知,这是他们两个得到的钱,故应选C。
【3】句意:这是Nigel买了一张幸运彩票之后他们赢得的。bought买;sold卖;took带走; brought带来。根据文意可知,这两个人买了彩票,之后中奖了。故应选A。
【4】句意:他们怎样庆祝呢?spend花费;live居住;celebrate庆祝;save节省;拯救。根据下句话Not a champagne(香槟酒) breakfast___5___you might think, but a bacon roll in their supermarket cafe可知,这是他们庆祝的方式,故应选C。
【5】句意:不是像你想象的那样的香槟酒早餐,而是他们超市小餐馆里的熏肉卷。as像;if 如果;because因为;though尽管。根据句意可知,这里表示“像你想象的那样”,用as引导定语从句。故应选A。
【6】句意:当Nigel发现(中奖)的时候,他说不出话来,而且开始发抖。won't不会;needn't不需要;shouldn't不应该;couldn't不能。根据文意可知,Nigel并没有想到中大奖,所以他应该是很吃惊的,因此这里是“说不出话来”,故应选D。
【7】句意:这对赢家计划买一座大房子、一辆汽车,去国外度假。losers失败者;buyers购买者;sellers销售者;winners赢家。根据上文Nigel Page and Justine Laycock got their £56 million可知,这两个人中了大奖,所以他们是赢家,故应选D。
【8】句意:他们两个都会辞职。All三者或以上都;Neither两者都不;Both两者都;Either两者中任何一个。根据文意可知,这里指的是Nigel Page和Justine Laycock两个人,故应选C。
【9】句意:Justine告诉他的老板“我不会回去工作了。”hospital医院;work工作;school学校;job工作,指具体的工作,名词。根据上文___8___of them will give up work可知,他们都会辞职,所以不会回去工作了。这里并不是讲具体的工作,故这里选B。
【10】句意:Justine的老板Matthew Fuller 说:“他们有坚强的性格,都很好。”strong强壮的;weak虚弱的;week周,星期;sick病的。根据句中…and are all right以及上文They will both need to be strong to deal with such a big amount of money.可知,这两个人都很坚强,故应选A。
