Last year its 1,431 seats were 94 percent occupied all year long and this year they?ll do 爆滿的狀況肯定賺了很多錢。 29. 本題的難度值為 ,屬于 中等難度 的題目,區(qū)分度為,比較理想。原文只是表明了市民現(xiàn)在的收入很可觀。最后是D 選項(xiàng),意思是說(shuō)市民曾經(jīng)的收入很少。和 A 選項(xiàng)一樣,都是一個(gè)原因。因此自然排除。再看 A 選項(xiàng),說(shuō)其不能承擔(dān)工程的費(fèi)用。再聯(lián)系 C 選項(xiàng):這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)事實(shí)上并不缺錢。因此,所謂的 cry poor,在中文里就是哭窮的意思。由題目定位到所指原句,然后接著往下讀:Nevertheless every hotel in town seems to be adding a new wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you may be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge, the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very ,這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)并不窮。 28. 本題的難度值為 ,屬于 中等難度 的題目, 比較理想。由原文中 However, the playgoers do manage a little sightseeing along with their ,看戲者還是做點(diǎn)觀光之 類的事情的。最后是 D 選項(xiàng),意思是看戲者除了看戲哪里都不去。關(guān)于 C 選項(xiàng)與 B 選項(xiàng)是相反的,既然 B 對(duì),C 自然就排除了。而且從細(xì)節(jié)上看,看戲的 人一般都住四五天,而觀光的人一天就走了。接著看 B 選項(xiàng),意思是:看戲的人比觀光的人花錢多。這里只說(shuō)觀光者經(jīng)常這么做,而不是一直都這么做。首先看 A 選項(xiàng),意思是:觀光者不能單獨(dú)參觀城堡和宮殿。 標(biāo)準(zhǔn) 答案是: B。因此也不能入選。但是 請(qǐng)看原文這句話: And there are the townsfolk who largely live off the tourists who e。因此排除。這個(gè)選項(xiàng)屬于偷換概念類干擾項(xiàng)。因此不能入選。接著看 B 選項(xiàng),意思是:RSC 的演員在臺(tái)上和臺(tái)下模仿莎士比亞。意思就是否認(rèn)了其對(duì)城鎮(zhèn)收入的貢獻(xiàn)。首先看 A 選項(xiàng),意思是:市民否認(rèn)了 RSC 對(duì)城鎮(zhèn)收入的恭獻(xiàn)。 標(biāo)準(zhǔn) 答案: A。 PS:通俗的說(shuō),就是倒票的票販。 在這里 lean 要翻譯成消瘦的意思。 ② They all seem to look alike (though they e from all over)lean, pointed, dedicated faces, wearing jeans and sandals, eating their buns and bedding down for the night on the flagstones outside the theatre to buy the 20 seats and 80 standing—room tickets held for the sleepers and sold to them when the box office opens at 10:30 . 分析:從結(jié)構(gòu)上講,這是一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單句,波折號(hào)前面是主干,后面是修飾性短語(yǔ)。 bun: n. 小面包 難句分析: ① And there are the townsfolk who largely live off the tourists who e, not to see the plays, but to look at Anne Hathaway?s Cottage, Shakespeare?s birthplace and the other sights. 分析: who 引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句修飾 townsfolk, not… but 結(jié)構(gòu)的意思是不是 …而是。ll have to lean on them a little. 要是他們不馬上付款,我們就得給他們加點(diǎn)壓力了。 If they don39。 【動(dòng)】 subsidize v. 給某人津貼或補(bǔ)貼 lean: [ li:n ] n. 瘦肉 ,傾斜 ,彎曲 a. 瘦的 ,貧乏的 ,歉收的 v. 倚靠 ,傾斜 ,依賴 【例】 The little girl only eats lean pork. 這個(gè)小女孩只吃瘦肉。t see that happening. 島上居民不愿離開(kāi);要是有補(bǔ)助金使運(yùn)輸費(fèi)用降低的話,他們很可能不會(huì)離開(kāi)。t want to leave, and probably wouldn39。 subsidy: [ 39。t want to lounge about town.

There is the Royal Shakespeare Company ( RSC), which presents superb productions of the plays at the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre on the Avon. And there are the townsfolk who largely live off the tourists who e, not to see the plays, but to look at Anne Hathaway‘ s Cottage, Shakespeare’ s birthplace and the other sights. The worthy residents of Stratford doubt that the theatre adds a penny to their revenue. They frankly dislike the RSC’ s actors, them with their long hair and beards and sandals and noisiness. It’ s all deliciously ironic when you consider that Shakespeare, who earns their living, was himself an actor ( with a beard) and did his share of noise making. The tourist streams are not entirely separate. The sightseers who e by bus and often take in Warwick Castle and Blenheim Palace on the side– don?t usually see the plays, and some of them are even surprised to find a theatre in Stratford. However, the playgoers do manage a little sight seeing along with their play going. It is the playgoers, the RSC contends, who bring in much of the town’ s revenue because they spend the night ( some of them four or five nights) pouring cash into the hotels and restaurants. The sightseers can take in everything and get out of town by nightfall. The townsfolk don?t see it this way and local council does not contribute directly to the subsidy of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Stratford cries poor traditionally. Nevertheless every hotel in town seems to be adding a 黑暗版考研英語(yǔ)歷年閱讀真題解析 4 new wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you may be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge, the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very expensive. Anyway, the townsfolk can?t understand why the Royal Shakespeare Company needs a subsidy. ( The theatre has broken attendance records for three years in a row. Last year its 1, 431 seats were 94 per cent occupied all year long and this year they’ ll do better.) The reason, of course, is that costs have rocketed and ticket prices have stayed low. It would be a shame to raise prices too much because it would drive away the young people who are Stratford‘ s most attractive clientele. They e entirely for the plays, not the sights. They all seem to look alike ( though they e from all over) – lean, pointed, dedicated faces, wearing jeans and sandals, eati
