12.A jobless man applied for the position of"office boy"at a big firm.
The HR manager (56)interviewed (interview) him,then a test:clean the floor."You are hired,"he said,"give me your email address,(57)and I'll send you the application to fill."The man replied"I don't have a computer,(58)neither/nor/or an email".
"I'm sorry,"said the HR manager,"that means you do not exist.And anyone(59)who doesn't exist cannot have the job."The man left (60)with no hope at all.He didn't know what to do,with only 10in his pocket.
He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10KG tomato crate.He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round.In less than two hours,he (61)succeeded (success) in doubling his capital.He repeated the operation 3times,and returned home with 60.
5years later,the man is one of the (62)biggest (big) food retailers(零售商) in the US.He started to plan his family's future,and decided to have a life insurance.
He called (63)an insurance broker,and chose a protection plan.When the conversation was concluded,the broker asked him his email.The man replied:"I don't have an email".The broker replied (64)curiously (curious),"You don't have an email,and yet have established an empire!Do you imagine (65)what you could have been if you had an email?
The man thought for a while,and replied:"An office boy!"

分析 本文主要講述了一個由于沒有電腦也沒有電子郵箱而無法應聘勤雜工工作的人,后來卻成了美國一個最大的食品零售商的故事.

解答 答案:
56.interviewed   考查時態(tài)    此處在句中作謂語,根據(jù)上下文都使用了一般過去時可知,此處講述的是過去發(fā)生的事情,故用interviewed.
57.a(chǎn)nd   考查固定句型    由于本句符合"祈使句,+and+含有將來時的句子"這一結(jié)構(gòu),相當于一個條件狀語從句,意為:(如果)給我你的電子郵件地址,我會將要填寫的申請表寄給你;故用and.
58.neither/nor/or  考查固定句型/連詞    本句的意思是:我沒有電腦,也沒有電子郵箱;由于上一句是否定句,則后一句常用neither或nor表示"也不,也沒有";另外,本句也可以理解為:我沒有電腦或電子郵件;由于此處用在否定句中,表示的是選擇關(guān)系,故可用連詞or;故答案為:neither/nor/or.
59.who    考查關(guān)系代詞     本句為定語從句,由于先行詞anyone指人,在該從句中作主語,故用關(guān)系代詞who.
60.with   考查句意理解以及介詞    本句的意思是:那個人沒抱任何希望地離開了,此處在句中作方式狀語,故用with.
61.succeeded   考查時態(tài)    此處在句中作謂語,根據(jù)上文可知,此處講述的是過去發(fā)生的事情,應使用一般過去時,故用succeeded.
62.biggest   考查形容詞的最高級    此處用在定冠詞the之后,指的是:最大的食品零售商(之一);故用形容詞的最高級biggest.
63.a(chǎn)n    考查不定冠詞    此處用來修飾單數(shù)名詞broker,表示泛指一位保險經(jīng)紀人,應使用不定冠詞;由于此處之后的形容詞insurance首字母的發(fā)音為元音/i/,故用an.
64.curiously  考查副詞    此處用來修飾動詞replied,故用副詞curiously.
65.what   考查特殊疑問詞   此處用在動詞imagine之后引導賓語從句,意為:如果你有email,那你又會成了什么樣的人呢?此處意為:什么;故用what.

點評 本題主要考查了各種語法在短文中的具體運用.做本題時,需要在正確理解短文的前提下,逐句分析句意以及所考查到的語法現(xiàn)象;因此在平時的學習中,應熟練掌握各種語法知識,其中包括詞法,句法,各種時態(tài)語態(tài)以及虛擬語氣等.

7.What do you know about the standard of living of a country?It actually means how much of the goods and services the country produces for an average person to share.(36)EObviously,the first factor is its ability to produce wealth."Wealth"in this sense doesn't refer to money.It's because we don't live on money but on things that money can buy,"goods"such as food and clothing,and"services"such as transport and entertainment.
There are various factors that determine a country's ability to produce wealth.They affect one another.Wealth depends greatly on a country's natural resources.(37)F.Some regions of the world are rich in natural resources with a fertile soil and a favorable climate; other regions possess perhaps only one of them; some,unfortunately,possess none.The USA has everything listed above.(38)BThe Sahara Desert,on the other hand,is one of the least wealthy.
Also,the ability to put natural resources to use counts,which goes without saying.
(39)DAs we see,old countries that have trained so many skilled workers over centimes are better at producing wealth than those whose workers are mainly unskilled.
Besides,with their wealth increasing,people have more for saving and can put their savings into factories and machines,which,in turn,will help workers to produce more goods.(40)A

A.That means wealth itself also produces wealth.
B.No wonder it is one of the wealthiest regions of the world.
C.Natural resources are equally distributed around the world.
D.And next comes the technical efficiency of a country's people.
E.You may ask what factors contribute to a country's standard of living
F.They include coal,oil,gas,gold,other minerals,water supply and so on.
G.But that doesn't make it a most wealthy country because it's often hit by disasters.
