20.By 1938,Europe had been experiencing an increased number of attacks on Jews.With no end in sight,Jewish refugee(難民) agencies requested the British government to allow them to bring in only Jewish children under17years of age.This was to be only temporary,until the situation in their home countries was improved.
Kindertransport,meaning"children transport"in German,was then born.Children from Germany,Austria,Czechoslovakia,Poland and other Nazi-occupied regions were transported to the United Kingdom.There they were either placed with other families or in hostels.Later,it was found that many of these children were the only survivors of their families.Nicholas Winton was among those people who helped to save Jewish children.He managed to rescue 669children from Czechoslovakia and bring them safely to England.In 1938around Christmas,29-year-old Nicky was about to leave for a skiing holiday.Suddenly,Martin Blake,one of his good friends,contacted(聯(lián)絡) him from Czechoslovakia,asking him to travel there to help political refugees on the run from the Nazis.And Nicholas agreed.
Nicky spent his entire holiday of 3weeks in the capital city of Prague where he saw the situation first-hand.Once back in England,he immediately started organizing the evacuation(撤離) of children from the Czech region.From advertising for the necessary permits,Nicky worked tirelessly.By August 1939,669children had been helped by Nicky and his friends.Haplessly,the last group of children due to leave Prague in the beginning of September could not do so-World WarⅡbroke out,and swallowed them up.
Nicky did not discuss his particular task with his wife,Grete.It was only when she found a scrapbook in 1988,with names of the rescued children,their (lost) parents and the foster families that had taken them in,that his heroism came to light.Nicky has received several awards in Britain and the Czech Republic.

A.they made serious mistakes

分析 本文講的是到1938年為止,猶太人遭到肆意的攻擊,Nicholas Winton 幫助解救幸存下來的猶太小孩,經(jīng)過不懈的努力,到1939年八月份,Nicholas Winton和他的朋友一共解救了669名小孩.到1988年,Nicholas Winton的事跡才被人們知曉,并獲得了許多獎項.

解答 66.答案 B 推理判斷題   根據(jù)文章第一段By 1938,Europe had been experiencing an increased number of attacks on Jews.Jewish refugee(難民) agencies requested the British government to allow them to bring in only Jewish children under17years of age.可知當時歐洲正經(jīng)歷對猶太人的迫害,因此猶太難民局請求英國接收猶太兒童,故答案為B
67.答案 C推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段第二句話"Jewish refugee(難民) agencies requested the British government to allow them to bring in only Jewish children under17 years of age"和第二段第一句話"Kindertransport,meaning"children transport"in German,was then born"可以推斷出Kindertransport是為了拯救猶太族小孩.故選C.
68.答案 A  推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段第四句話"Nicholas Winton was among those people who helped to save Jewish children.He managed to rescue 669 children from Czechoslovakia and bring them safely to England."和第三段的"Once back in England,he immediately started organizing the evacuation(撤離) of children from the Czech region.From advertising for the necessary permits,Nicky worked tirelessly.By August 1939,669 children had been helped by Nicky and his friends."可以推斷出Nicholas Winton做了很多來幫助猶太族的孩子脫離危險.故選A.
69.答案 D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)"Haplessly"的前一句話"By August 1939,669 children had been helped by Nicky and his friends."和后一句話"the last group of children due to leave Prague in the beginning of September could not do so-World WarⅡbroke out,and swallowed them up."可以推斷出這兩句話表達的是兩個相反的意思,所以"Haplessly"應該是表示轉折,意思是運氣不佳的,不幸的.A.Importantly重要地;B.Hopefully有希望地;C.Strangely奇怪地;D.Unfortunately不幸的.故選D
70.答案 D   推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段第五句話"Nicholas Winton was among those people who helped to save Jewish children."可以推斷出Nicholas Winton是個熱心的人.根據(jù)最后一段第一句"Nicky did not discuss his particular task with his wife,Grete"可以推斷出Nicholas Winton是個小心謹慎的人.故選D.

點評 社會文化類是英語閱讀中常見的題材,掌握該類的英語閱讀理解技巧十分重要.主旨大意題在歷史文化類文章中是?嫉念}型.解答這類試題的英語閱讀理解技巧:
1.讀首句抓大意.文化教育類閱讀理解文章多采用說明文、議論文體裁,而這類文章大都采用文章段落的中心,即主題句在文章開頭.因此,要尋找這類文章的主旨大意就需要研究文章的首句.
2.讀尾句抓大意.有時這類文章的主題句安排在文章的結尾,作為對全篇的總結.
3.讀首段抓大意.有些文章或段落的開頭和結尾部分都有主題句.這種結構是為了突出主題思想而使用兩次點題的寫作方法.這兩個主題句在句子結構和用詞上有所不同,而且在內(nèi)容上前句和后句也不重復.
4.從段落中抓大意.有些文章或段落的主題句在文章中,這種文章或段落往往以一句話或幾句話引出要表達的主題,在主題句出現(xiàn)后,再舉例子陳述細節(jié)或繼續(xù)論證.
5.歸納要點抓大意.有些文章或段落無明顯的主題句,只是暗示性地體現(xiàn)主題.這就要求同學們在閱讀過程中根據(jù)文中所敘述的事實或線索來概括總結主旨大意.

15.As a star computer scientist,Cristina Fonseca had lots of job offers,but she turned them all down.She decided to start her own business Talkdesk.She lives in Portugal but does business all over the globe by using software.
The global economy works well for such people.
But the world of work has been less kind to other young folks.Florence Moreau,a young architect in Paris,had the double misfortune to leave university seven years ago,when the world economy was on its knees; and to be French."I really need a full-time,permanent job,"she says.Under France's 3,800-page labour law,workers on permanent contracts (合同) receive generous benefits and are extremely hard to get rid of.So French firms have all but stopped hiring permanent staff:four-fifths of new employees are on short-term contracts.Ms Moreau has had eight jobs,none lasting for longer than 16months.With a small child at home,she has to keep looking for the next one."It's tiring,"she sighs.
Joblessness matters.The longer people are out of work,the more their ability and their they are to give up.
Trade unions often favour a minimum wage.This can help those who already have jobs,but if it is set too high it can crowd out those with the fewest skills and the least experience,who tend to be young.
A labour system where companies can hire and fire easily is urgently needed.
Making it easier for young people to start their own business is essential,too.They may be full of energy and open to new ideas.
Alas,there is a huge mismatch everywhere between the skills that many young people can offer and the ones that employers need.Ms Fonseca says she cannot find the right talent for Talkdesk.As economies grow more complex,demand for practical skills will keep rising.The world's schools are not even close to meeting it.

32.What can we learn about Cristina Fonseca?B
A.She does business only in Portugal.
B.She can't find the talents she wants.
C.Her company is not related to information technology.
D.When seeking a job,she was refused many times by employers.
33.What does the underlined word"atrophy"in paragraph 4mean?A
A.Shrink.    B.Increase.
C.Overcome.  D.Survive.
34.Why can't Moreau find a permanent job?C
A.The world economy is booming.
B.She didn't finish university studies.
C.Employers don't want to give workers good welfare.
D.The French government hasn't taken any measures for unemployment.
35.Which measure is actually useless for unemployment?A
A.Raising the minimum wage.
B.Training students to gain skills.
C.Making labour rules more flexible.
D.Encouraging young people to start companies.
