08年6月真题

Seven years ago, when I was visiting Germany, I Met with an official who explained to me that the country had a perfect solution to its economic problems. Watching the U.S. economy ___62___ during the ‘90s, the Germans had decided that they, too, needed to go the high-technology ___63___. But how? In the late ‘90s, the answer schemed obvious. Indians. ___64___ all, Indian entrepreneurs accounted for one of every three Silicon Valley start-ups. So the German government decided that it would ___65___ Indians to Term any just as America does by ___66___ green cards. Officials created something called the German Green Card and ___67___ that they would issue 20,000 in the first year. ___68___, the Germans expected that tens of thousands more Indians would soon be begging to come, and perhaps the ___69___ would have to be increased. But the program was a failure. A year later ___70___ half of the 20,000 cards had been issued. After a few extensions, the program was ___71___.

I told the German official at the time that I was sure the ___72___ would fail. It’s not that I had any particular expertise in immigration policy, ___73___ I understood something about green cards, because I had one (the American ___74___). The German Green

Card was mismand, I argued,__75__it never, under any circumtances, translated into German citizenship. The U.S.green card, by contrast, is an almost__76__path to becoming American (after five years and a clean record).The official__77__my objection, saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these peoplecitizenship.” we need young tach workers,” he said.”that’s what this pro-gram is all __78__.”so Germany was asking bright young__79__to leavetheir country, culture and families, move thousands of miles away, learn a new language and work in a strange land—but without any__80__of ever being part of their new home. Germany was senging a  signal, one that was ___81___ received in India and other countries, and also by Germany’s own immigrant community.

A 62. A) soar    B) hover     C) amplify    D) intensify

根据上下文和常识可判断,美国的经济在上个世纪90年代得到了迅速发展。下面就考哪个词表示猛增,急增,很显然选soar ,剧增,攀升,这个词常用于经济和金融领域。hover意思是"(飞机、鸟等)盘旋,翱翔,犹豫", amplify 意为"扩大(音量)、扩充、详述", intensify意为"强化,加强,加剧"。

D 63. A) circuit    B) strategy    C) trait      D) route

句意为"走高科技路线",故选项D)正确。circuit意为"电路,线路", strategy 意为"策略,战略,智谋",看似符合题意,但strategy不能和go搭配使用,trait意为"特征,特点,品质"。

B 64. A) Of   B) After    C) In      D) At

四个选项均可与all 构成词组。of all 意思是"在所有的......当中"。after all表示"毕竟,终究",经常用于解释原因。in all "总共,合计"。at all "丝毫(不),一点(不)",常用于否定句和疑问句中,表示强调。根据上下文,此处应为解释为什么选择印度人的原因,应选B)。

D 65. A) import    B) kidnap    C) convey     D) lure

根据上下文,德国政府决定把印度人"吸引"到德国去,lure (on, into, to, away)"引诱,诱惑,与题意正好相符。import进口,只能和into和from 搭配,故排除。kidnap绑架, convey 传输,传送,都与题意不符。

A 66. A) offering    B) installing     C) evacuating     D) formulating

根据上下文,德国政府是要效仿美国发行绿卡,只有offering 提供,符合题意。install 意为安装,,evacuate疏散,formulate阐述,均和题意无关。

C 67. A) conferred     B) inferred     C) announced       D) verified

confer 协商,商量,infer推理,推论, announce宣布,宣告,verify证实,根据上下文,德国政府应是宣布第一年发行20,000张绿卡的消息,故选C,其他选项不合题意。

B 68. A) Specially     B) Naturally     C) Particularly    D) Consistently

specially 和particularly均有"特别地"的含义,应排除。naturally自然,当然,consistently一致地。根据前后逻辑,德国人自然是希望成千上万的印度人来,应该选择B)。

A 69. A) quotas    B) digits     C) measures     D) scales

根据上下文,德国人认为印度人会成千上万的涌来,所以空白处应该指的是"(绿卡的)配额"有可能需要增加,只有quota符合题意。digit数字,measure测量,衡量,scale规模,等级。

C 70. A) invariably    B) literally     C) barely     D) solely

invariably 意为"始终不变地,总是",literally 意为"逐字逐句的,barely 表示"几乎不,几乎没有", solely意为"唯一的",根据句意,德国政府的这个项目失败了,所以勉强有一半的绿卡发出去了,答案应为 C)。

D 71. A) repelled    B) deleted    C) combated    D) abolished

根据上下文,因为预定的20,000张绿卡没有发行出去,这个计划应该是"取消"了。选项A) repel 意为"使某人感到厌恶,击退某人的进攻",delete意为"删除(文件等)",combat 意为"同…作斗争",可与with 或against搭配。abolish 意为"废除 ",与题意相符。

C 72. A) adventure    B) response    C) initiative     D) impulse

这里应该是指这个"program"会失败。adventure冒险,response反应,回应,impulse冲动,这三个选项均和 "program" 的意思相去甚远。initiative率先做出的尝试,首创精神,和题意相符。固定搭配有take the initiative(带头,倡导),on one's own initiative (自发地)。

B 73. A) and    B) but     C) so     D) or

not that...but that... 不是(因为)...而是(因为)...为固定用法,此句中省略了but 后面的that。

D 74. A) heritage     B) revision    C) notion     D) version

根据题意,我有一张美国绿卡, version版本,与前面的American搭配使用正合题意。heritage遗产, revision修改,notion观点,观念,此三项与题意不符。

A 75. A) because     B) unless     C) if       D) while

根据上下文,我与这位德国官员 "argue"的应是德国绿卡取名不当的原因,故应选择A。BC表条件关系,D表同时发生的时间关系,让步关系,以及强烈对比。

B 76. A) aggressive    B) automatic    C) vulnerable     D) voluntary

根据上文和常识可以判断,"美国绿卡持有者若无犯罪纪录,可在5年后自动成为美国公民",automatic自动的,符合题意。aggressive好斗的,侵略性的,vulnerable易受伤的,voluntary自愿的。

D 77. A) overtook    B) fascinated    C) submitted     D) dismissed

这位德国官员说德国人不可能(no way)给这些人公民身份,下文都是对我看法的反驳。overtake超过,fascinate使着迷,submit提交,屈服,dismiss解散,解雇,反驳,如dismiss a suit(驳回起诉)。故答案为D。

C 78. A) towards     B) round    C) about    D) over

all about意为"关于......的一切",口语中有 "That's what it's all about"的表达方式,意思是"全部事情就是这样"。all over 意为"到处",all round 指"周围,四处"。

C 79. A) dwellers     B) citizens     C) professionals     D) amateurs

根据上文可知,德国发行绿卡的目的是把印度的高科技人才吸引过来,只有professionals符合题意。dweller短期的居住者,citizen公民,市民,amateur业余爱好者。

A 80. A) prospect     B) suspicion    C) outcome      D) destination

这位德国官员前面说到,他们是绝对不会给印度人移民身份的,他们需要的只是高级技工,所以,这句话的含义应是"尽管印度人不远万里来到这片新土地,却没有任何希望成为这个国家的公民",故应选A,前景,前途,将来的可能性。suspicion怀疑,猜疑,outcome 结果,destination目的地。

B 81. A) partially     B) clearly     C) brightly     D) vividly

根据上文,德国的绿卡项目没有成功,印度和其他国家很少有人去德国,这个信号显然是被清楚地收到了,应选B。partially部分的,brightly聪明的,明亮的,vividly生动的。
