Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2016·山西太原五校检测)
Commuters (上下班往返的人) who drive to work will face a parking charge of up to ￡350 a year.Ministers are backing a workplace parking charge which will come into force in Nottingham in 2016 and is likely to be adopted across the country.The scheme will see firms with more than ten parking places for staff charged ￡350 a year for each space in two years.
Employers would be free to pass on the charge to their staff—meaning it would effectively be a tax on driving to work.The scheme aims to reduce traffic by preventing unnecessary car journeys and raise funds to improve public transport，but critics say it is just an excuse for councils to fill their coffers (金库)．
Some ten million Britons drive to work each day，and the British Chambers of Commerce says the new charge could total ￡3.4 billion a year if rolled out nationwide.
Already some firms in Nottingham have threatened to leave the city，where 40,000 commuters use their cars to get to work.A spokesman said the scheme was nothing more than a tax on jobs.“It is very unfair to discriminate against those employers who have parking spaces，which get vehicles off the streets，” he said.“And these charges apply around the clock，which is especially unfair on shift workers who rely on their cars because public transport is not available.This is more about increasing the government’s income than reducing traffic.”
However，Transport Minister Sadiq Khan gave the plan an
official approval during a visit to Nottingham.The council says
the tax will raise as much as ￡100 million over ten years—one fifth of the cost of a new transport system for the city.
Another transport spokesman Theresa Villiers said the tax
would have a devastating impact on businesses struggling to
cope with the economic decline.
But Richard Hebditch of the Campaign for Better Transport
said the tax would raise money to invest in better transport.“We put forward the idea of workplace parking taxes as a fairer way to raise money to invest in the future local transport services.We are pleased that the people of Nottingham will be the first to benefit.”
1．Supporters argue that the scheme________.
A．can help improve the parking conditions for the staff
B．should be applied to ail commuters driving to work
C．is certain to be carried out despite the objections
D．will relieve traffic pressure and improve public transport
2．According to the objectors，the scheme is unfair for________.
A．the firms with parking lots
B．the workforce without cars
C．the employees parking their cars on the streets
D．the staff driving to work in the daytime
3．Which word can best describe Theresa Villiers’s attitude towards the scheme?
A．Neutral. B．Negative.
C．Understanding.
D．Positive.
4．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A．many firms are willing to pay the charges for their staff
B．the public transport in Nottingham is in great need of improvement
C．the author believes Britons will benefit from the scheme
D．those firms with more commuters will leave Nottingham

Li Ping详解答案
课时作业(十七)
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．解析： 考查情景交际。结合“What if she refuses me？”可知选A项。B项意为“为什么是我呢”，C项意为“非常乐意”，常用于别人请求帮忙时的回答，D项意为“那又怎样”，均不符合题意。
答案： A
2．解析： in poor condition为固定词组，意思是“状况很坏，情况很坏”；in favour of为固定词组，意思是“赞成；支持”。
答案： C
3．解析： 考查形容词辨析。equal平等的。句意为：我认为我们的教育应该给所有的孩子平等的机会来发展他们的特殊天赋。reasonable合情理的，讲道理的，公道的；flexible灵活的，可弯曲的，柔顺的；convenient便利的，方便的，就近的。
答案： B
4．解析： it在此是形式宾语，真正的宾语是for her to get a job in that country。
答案： D
5．解析： 先行词表原因(只有reason一词)时，关系副词由why担任，关系副词why在从句中作原因状语。
答案： A
6．解析： 句意为：无论如何我都不能欺骗他——这违背我做人的原则。本题考查名词辨析。principle常用复数形式，意为：(行为的)准则、规范，如：principles of conduct行为的准则。emotion情感，情绪；regulation规章，规则；opinion意见，看法，主张。
答案： B
7．解析： 考查定语从句。句意为：——这就是你时常提到的小镇吗？——对，你知道的，我在那里工作了几年。定语从句的先行词the one指的就是the small town，引导词在从句中作地点状语，故用关系副词where来引导，you know是插入语，在句子中不作任何成分。

答案： A
9．解析： have difficulty (in) doing sth.做某事有困难，故选B项。

答案： D
11．解析： 根据答语中的we’ll have to...可知，应答者认为如果经理不回来的话，“我们”就得把会议推迟到明天。if so如果这样的话，符合语境。to give an example举个例子；for the first time ever首次地；in a nutshell简言之。
答案： A
12．解析： 考查非谓语动词。句意为：这是我们能想到的减少学生们在浴室过度用水的唯一方法。此处应该用不定式表示目的。we can imagine作定语修饰the only way，前面省略了that。
答案： B
13．解析： 考查介词。be of importance意为“重要”，相当于be important。句意为：必须教育孩子使他们知道保持生态平衡是很重要的。
答案： B
14．解析： 考查名词辨析。由“Can you explain it to me？”可知发话人是认为这篇文章不好理解，故选C。make sense讲得通，有意义，符合题意。make an effort努力；make progress取得进步；make a contribution做贡献。
答案： C
15．解析： 句意为：经常人听说人类天生有说话的能力。It is said that...为固定句式，意为“据说……”，it为形式主语，真正的主语是that引导的主语从句。
答案： A
