10.答案:B
句意:见9
解析:本题测试点为介词用法。因为利率方面的降低固定地用in,所以B是正确答案。
11.答案:D
句意:它们利润也大幅上升
解析:本题测试点为关系代词的用法,因为该关系代词先行词Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers是两家公司,所以应选D。
12.答案:A
句意:这一段时间都很痛苦
解析:本题测试点为名词词义辨析。ABCD都有时间概念,但代表时间的长短不同,A表示的时间可长可短,一般表示含糊的一段时间;B表示限定一段时间;C表示一个时期;D表示一个时代;而且经常有a +adj.+time的搭配,所以A是正确答案。
13.答案:A
句意:这三家投资银行是在股权、投资和收购交易兴盛期获利最多的
解析:本题测试点为上下文理解,因为后面提到了他们也损失最惨重,所以前后呼应,应选最高级形式A。
14.答案:C
句意:现在他们损失最惨重。
解析:本题测试点为上下文理解和动词的用法,因为主语是公司,动词应采用主动语态。lose作为“损失”的意思是及物动词,后面应当有宾语,而这里没有,所以正确答案为C。
15.答案:B
句意:它削减了定息项目
解析:本题测试点为动词短语辨析。B, cut back 意为“削减,减小(工业生产)”;A, cut down意为“减少、减低”; C.cut off意为“切断“; D. cut out意为”停止“;B是正确答案。
16.答案:D
句意:这以前看前来是特别过时的做法
解析:本题测试点为形容词词义辨析。D意为“过时的”;B意为:“不合理的”;C意为“不受欢迎的”“不流行”;A意为“不必要的”;根据句意,应选D。
17.答案:A
句意:但现在华尔街其他公司却饱受价格的折磨。
解析:本题测试点为动词词义辨析。B意味“担忧”;A意为“受……困扰”;C意为“关心……”;D意为“受……烦扰”,但被动语态应用by 将施动者引出。因此,根据句意,A是正确答案。
18.答案:C
句意:下岗人数不断增加
解析:本题测试点为动词用法和上下文理解,由上下文可知形势不乐观,所以下岗人数增加,又因强调逐渐增加的趋势,所以选C。
19.答案:B
句意:因为银行都目睹了美林公司是如何失利的
解析:本题测试点为动词短语固定搭配 Lose ground 意为“失利、衰退”;B是正确选项。
20.答案:C
句意:如果没有改善的迹象
解析;本题测试点为名词词义辨析 A意为“信号”;C意为”迹象、征兆”;B意为“记号、符号”;D意为“征兆(医学中的)”;因此,C是正确选项。

On the Relationship between Environment and Economy
The two pictures above are both about the relationship between the environment and the economic development. In the first picture, GDP is on the rise while the environment is drastically polluted. In the second picture, economic efficiency progresses with environmental protection. It’s easy to get the conclusion that development according to the second picture is more reasonable than that in the first one.
In the early development of socialism, our country didn’t pay much attention to the issue of environmental protection and savored the bitterness. Now, the government has taken many measures and is implementing the strategy of “sustainable development”. One aspect of the strategy is to develop the economy and take measures to protect the environment at the same time. In this way, we can develop our country in a sustainable manner and our offspring can have enough resources to develop society. If we don’t put much emphasis on the environment issue and excavate the natural resources blindly, our country will become a barren land sooner or later.
In a word, sustainable development is a reasonable strategy which should be implemented for a long time. The nature is providing us with plentiful resources generously, but it may punish us severely if we don’t care her.
