解析:

(1)

美國議會負(fù)責(zé)制定法律make the laws;制定法律。carry out;執(zhí)行。議會不可能執(zhí)行法律。法律應(yīng)由具體的部門去執(zhí)行。

(2)

本句是非限定性定語從句,which在從句中做主語。句義:議會分為兩部分,他們在權(quán)利上差不多平等。

(3)

議會的兩部分就是人們所知道的眾議院和參議院。

(4)

根據(jù)上下文提示,議員總數(shù)為435人,參議院占100人,眾議院比參議院人數(shù)多。英語中表示人數(shù)或人口“多”用large表達(dá)。

(5)

serve在此是“任職”的意思。這100人任職長達(dá)6年。

(6)

根據(jù)上下文可知:議會議員是由投票選舉產(chǎn)生的。select:選擇;change:改變;chosen:選擇,所以A, B, C不符合題義。elected:選舉。

(8)

根據(jù)句義:每個州的議員人數(shù)是由該州的人口總數(shù)決定的

(10)

加利福尼亞州人口較多,有43名議員,而內(nèi)華達(dá)州只有一個議員。While連詞:而。強調(diào)前后的對比。

(11)

根據(jù)句義:參眾兩院分成若干小組負(fù)責(zé)諸如教育,外交等特殊事物。In charge of“負(fù)責(zé)”,但它和主語which之間缺少謂語be動詞。所以A排除。Take care of“照顧。負(fù)責(zé)”符合題義B、D的詞義與文章不符。

(13)

根據(jù)句義:議會中最重要的工作通常是由這些被稱為委員會的小組完成的

(16)

根據(jù)美國憲法,參議員最低年齡為30歲,并且到他被選舉為參議員之時他必須已成為美國公民滿九年。

(17)

and表示“并且”競選眾議員必須年齡在25歲以上,并且取得美國公民資格滿7年。

(18)

include:包括。根據(jù)句義,美國國會議員包括商人,農(nóng)場主,教師特別是律師。而accept:接受,unite:統(tǒng)一,聯(lián)合,invite:邀請。這幾個答案不合題義。

(19)

根據(jù)舉句義:參議員比眾議員更為出名。Better是well的比較級。

(20)

  根據(jù)句義:參議員人數(shù)少且任期長。此句的主語是“人”所以描述“多”與“少”的形容詞用few/little.不能用little修飾。

  本文介紹了美國國會的一些情況,美國國會由眾議院和參議院組成,議會成員由選舉投票產(chǎn)生,每個州的議會成員數(shù)和其總?cè)藬?shù)成比例,眾議院和參議院又分成若干小組,負(fù)責(zé)不同的工作,議會中的一些重要工作就是在這些小組中完成的。同時本文還介紹了當(dāng)議員的條件。

  To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor, you must be able to 1 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 2 speaker, with a good, strong, 3 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 4 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

   5 a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still 6 his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 7 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express feeling. Listen to him, and you will 8 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 9 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t 10 that he will indeed be able to act 11 on the stage, for there are very important 12 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 13 words each time he plays a certain part, 14 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually 15 before hand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 16 on the stage.

  A good teacher 17 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 18 :they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t obey something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of the students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 19 it as he goes along.

  I have known many teachers who were fine 20 in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline(規(guī)定): they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

  The country's highest-level university scholarships(獎學(xué)金)were handed out last week.

  The recipients are students from poor families who have an excellent ___1___ in their studies. But the University of Science and Technology of Beijing ___2___ even further with its ___3____. This year's recipients have to be non-smokers, non-drinkers, and frugal(節(jié)儉)as well. ___4___ who is silly enough to use the scholarship money ___5___ friends to meals could face the hope of having ___6___ taken back.

  The assessment process(評估過程)was ___7___. The applicant(申請者)was asked to do two things:___8___ a short speech about study, campus life and family conditions; and take part in a question and answer meeting with the organizations in charge.

  The organization was clear in its decision process and awarded the scholarships to 147 students.

  ___9___ how the money should be spent, however, ___10___ differ. Some students say that it's natural, even___11___, for a winner to invite friends to a celebration, usually a meal.

  The scholarship winners themselves did not seem to agree.“I object to ___12___ the money on a big dinner for friends. ___13___ the winners who are from poor families should make good use of the money and not waste it,”said Si Guangrong, one of the winners, who said she ___14___ use it for her postgraduate study.

  A bit more ___15___ views came from Li Xiao, of the university's Students' Affairs Office:“How they spend the scholarship money is ___16___ a private matter and they're free to spend it ___17___ different ways. But they'd better use it properly and in an economic way.”

  The national scholarship is ___18___ to 45,000 students each year. The top 10,000 will receive 6,000 yuan, ___19___ 4,000 yuan. ___20___, students with a national scholarship are not required to pay fees for school.

  To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor, you must be able to 1 the attention and interest of your students, you must be a 2 speaker, with a good, strong, 3 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 4 what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

   5 a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still 6 his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his 7 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express feeling. Listen to him, and you will 8 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 9 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t 10 that he will indeed be able to act 11 on the stage, for there are very important 12 between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 13 words each time he plays a certain part, 14 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually 15 before hand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 16 on the stage.

  A good teacher 17 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 18 :they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t obey something, they will say no. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of the students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 19 it as he goes along.

  I have known many teachers who were fine 20 in class but unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline(規(guī)定): they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
