inusthehigh-endpricetag”可知,这是一款物美价廉的手表。故选D。4.Toguaranteecustomers’satisfaction,thewatchproducerpromisesthat.A.theywillreducetheengi

asinoffice,butextravagantly-pricedwatchesthataddzerosjustbecauseofawell-knownnameareaninsulttoyourlogic.[句式分析]本句话的主干句为Youneedanewwat
ch,theone...awell-knownnameareaninsulttoyourlogic是watch的同位语;在这个复杂的同位语中but连接的是两个并列句;在第一个分句中youarewearing是省略了关系词的定语从句,修饰one,在第二个分句中that又引导一个定语从句,修饰
watches。[精美译文]你需要一块新手表——一块你现在戴着却制造于尼克松时期的手表,但是仅仅是因为一个众所周知的名字而在价格后面增加了零的昂贵手表是对你的逻辑的侮辱。10.So,whilewe’rebusyrevolutionizingthewatchind
ustrytobringyoumorerealvalue,youcantakeyourownstandagainstover-pricedwatcheswiththeUrbanBlue.[句式分析]本句是一个复合句,youcantakeyourownstandaga
instover-pricedwatcheswiththeUrbanBlue是主句,whilewe’rebusyrevolutionizingthewatchindustrytobringyoumorerealvalue是while引导的让步状语从句,while相当于although/thou
gh,意为“尽管,虽然”。[精美译文]因此,尽管我们忙于改革手表工业来为您带来更多真正的价值,但是您可以采取自己的立场用UrbanBlue来反对过于昂贵的手表。强化练(十七)Ⅰ.单项填空1.Thereportattheconferenceanalysesin

介绍的发电机RivGen的工作原理可知,画线词所在句的含义是“在那里,河水水流使机轮转动,产生多达50千瓦的电量”。由此可知,画线词的意思是“使旋转,使转动”,与turn的含义相近,故选B。12.HowistheORPCtechnologyunique?A.Itcanwork

读本文为一篇议论文。我们在生活中都有决定性的时刻——有意义的经历会在我们的记忆中脱颖而出,这些时刻似乎是命运或运气的产物,我们无法控制他们。但是一旦我们了解了我们是如何记住某些特定的时刻以及为什么能记住,我们就可以创造更多重要的时刻。15.Howdoestheauthor

asedontwokeymoments:thebestorworstmoment,knownasthepeak,andtheending.”可知,那些引人注目的时刻更容易被记住。同义替换将peak替换为striki
ng。故A选项正确。17.Whatwouldprobablybediscussedinthefollowingpartofthetext?A.Whattoprepareforlife’strials.B.Whytocreatedefin

rcertainmomentsandwhy,wecanstarttocreatemoremomentsthatmatter.”可知,接下来就应该要说怎么做了,即Howtocreatelife’sbigmoments。故D选项

C选项切题。21.A.squeezingB.removingC.thrillingD.wrestling答案A解析由“Aftersomeendeavor,themicefinallygotout.”可知,经过一番努力,老鼠终于出来了。所以判断老鼠是挤着出来
的。故A选项切题。22.A.immediatelyB.casuallyC.calmlyD.excitedly答案A解析由下文可知,其中一只老鼠是瞎子,它咬着另一只老鼠的尾巴(tail)出来的,所以出洞口时没有立即(imme
