题目内容
13.ADo you know Laszlo Biro?Maybe you do not,but you probably use his invention every day,and you may even have (A)it in your hand right now!
Biro (1899-1985)was the inventor of the ballpoint pen.He was born in Budapest,Hungary.In the
1930s,when he worked as a newspaper editor (编辑),he used a fountain pen (B)almost every day.However,he had to refill it all the time.The ink also did not dry easily,and it sometimes made a mess on the paper.Biro (C)想要更好的笔.His brother,George,helped him develop a special ink.The ink dried easily.Then they developed a new type of pen.There was a (D)tiny ball at the tip of the pen.The ball rolled ink onto the paper as it moved.They call it the"ballpoint"pen.
The ballpoint pen was a great success.Everyone love it.Now (E)millions of people use it all over the world every day.
People will always remember Biro for his invention.Today in many English-speaking countries,people still use the word"biro"to refer to any kind of ballpoint pen.
51.文中画线部分(A)指代的是:his invention.
52.写出文中划线部分(B)和(D)的近义词或同义词:nearly;small
53.将文中画线部分(C)译成英语:wanted a better pen
54.将文中画线部分(E)改写为severalmillionpeople use iteverywherein the world everyday.
55.从文中找出圆珠笔的两种表达法:ballpoint pen;biro.
分析 文章大意:
文中提到的是圆珠笔的由来,圆珠笔是由Laszlo Biro发明的.一开始这个人是报纸编辑,用笔用起来非常不方面.为了更加有效地书写和编辑内容,于是突发奇想,发明了一种非常易干的墨水,同时发明了圆珠笔,现在全世界几乎所有的人都在使用.
解答 51.his invention,推理判断题,文中提到"you probably use his invention every day,and you may even have (A)it in your hand right now"你每天都用他的发明,现在手里有可能就有一个,由此可知it指代的应该是他的发明,填写his invention.
52.nearly,small,考察同义词辨析,文中提到"when he worked as a newspaper editor"他是一个报纸的编辑,所以应该时几乎每天都用笔,nearly意为几乎,与almost同义;文中提到"ball at the tip of the pen"在一支笔的笔尖,因为笔尖就已经很小了,所以上边的那个小球应该就更小了,tiny的同义词为small.所以填写
small.
53.wanted a better pen,考察汉英互译,文中给定的是想要更好的笔,想要是want,由于在过去,所以用一般过去时,用wanted,更好的,由此判断用形容词good的比较级形式better,由此确定填写wanted a better pen.
54.million;everywhere,考察句式互换及句意理解,文中给出的是"millions of people use it all over the world every day"全世界成千上万的人都在用,millions of people成千上万的人,可以用several million几百万的
…all over the world全世界,可以理解为是世界上的每个角落,由此确定填写everywhere.
55.ballpoint pen;biro,推理判断题,文中提到"They call it the"ballpoint"pen"他们称呼那支笔为ballpoint pen,同时"people still use the word"biro"to refer to any kind of ballpoint pen."现在的人们用biro来称呼ballpoint pen,由此确定可以用ballpoint pen和biro两个词来表示.
