(2016•山东潍坊模拟)
Do you have a spare room in your house? Do you like to share your driveway in front of your garage with others? __1__ Many people are benefiting from this new business of renting.
Perhaps the bestknown example of a company in this field is Airbnb—an American web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers. It says it operates in 34, 000 cities and it has 800, 000 listings of rooms and apartments. __2__
A British company is doing something with parking spaces. JustPark's founder, Anthony Eskenazi, says, “When I had the original idea, I spotted a driveway close to a sports stadium. It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in a commercial car park.”__3__ Around 20, 000 people have advertised their spaces on the website, and he says around half a million drivers use them.
__4__ They are people who run things like traditional hotels and commercial car parks. They are afraid of ending up losing money.
__5__ Regulations for these new businesses are unclear. How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbour? Because this is a new business world, those rules aren't there yet.
A. It seems to have occupied the majority of the market.
B. Both of these can help you make money.
C. And there is another problem.
D. And his great idea has proved a success.
E. But the new business of renting has its competitors.
F. There are many ways to earn money.
G. A commercial car park is inconvenient.
答案与解析
语篇解读 本文主要介绍了如何在网络上出租自己多余的东西,这样做给大家带来的益处以及一些需要解决的问题。
1.B 根据空后的“Many people are benefiting from this new business of renting.”可知,许多人从这种新的租赁业务中获益,这与B项“这两件事都能帮你挣钱”在意义上是一致的。
2.A 根据空前的一句话可知,大约有34 000个城市已经在运作着这种商业模式,这意味着它已经占据了大部分的市场份额,故选A。
3.D 根据空后的“Around 20,000 people have advertised their spaces on the website, and he says around half a million drivers use them.”可判断出,他的想法让他取得了成功,这在意思上与D项保持一致。
4.E 根据空后的“They are people who run things like traditional hotels and commercial car parks. They are afraid of ending up losing money.”可知,一些出租传统的东西的人害怕失去赚钱的机会,这也就暗示出他们是竞争者,故选E。
5.C 根据空后的“Regulations for these new businesses are unclear.”可知,还有一些关于这些新业务的规则还不清楚,这是一个问题,故选C。
三、语法填空
(2016•江西九江统考)
I was in trouble in overcoming my addiction to alcohol, and __1__ was my friend Mike. We never met each other until we came __2__ in the same treatment facility. Then we __3__ (be) out of the treatment center and returned to our life. Finally we became inseparable friends like brothers.
There was never a time __4__ I called him and he did not call me right back within a couple of __5__ (hour). We valued every chance we have to keep __6__ (we) both on the right track.
One day, I called Mike but he wasn't in. As usual, I had to leave a message, fully __7__ (expect) to hear from him later that evening or the next day. But I had not heard from him for nearly two days, and I became very __8__ (anxiety). On the third day, I received a message from Mike's wife that Mike had been killed in __9__ unexplained truck crash on the morning of my call.
I attended my friend's funeral, and even though I could __10__ (hard) walk, I helped carry my friend to his final resting place. Mike is still here, in my heart and my soul.
答案与解析
语篇解读 作者在戒酒中心与Mike相遇、相知并成为朋友。后来Mike在一场事故中去世了,但他将永远活在作者的心里。
1.so 考查倒装句。根据语境可知,此处表示“我的朋友Mike也是如此”。“so+助动词/情态动词/系动词+另一主语”表示“……也是如此”。
2.across 考查固定短语。come across表示“偶然遇见”,符合语境。
3.were 考查一般过去时。根据and后面的并列谓语“returned”可知,此处应用一般过去时表示过去的事实情况,再结合主语可知用were。
4.when 考查定语从句。when引导定语从句,并在从句中作时间状语。
5.hours 考查名词的数。a couple of后要接名词的复数形式。
6.us 考查代词。所填词表示“我们”,且作keep的宾语,所以用us。
7.expecting 考查现在分词。此处应用现在分词expecting作伴随状语,表示非谓语动作与谓语动作同时发生和主动关系。
8.anxious 考查词性转换。所填词表示“焦急的”,作表语,表示状态,应用所给名词的形容词形式。
9.an 考查冠词。Mike在“我”打电话给他的那天早晨死于“一场”原因不明的卡车撞车事故中。此处应用不定冠词,unexplained以元音音素开头,故用an。
10.hardly 考查副词。“我”出席了朋友的葬礼,即使“我”(由于悲痛)几乎难以行走,“我”还是帮着把他送到他最后的安息之地。hardly(几乎不)符合语境。

范文
Dear_Peter,
I'm_writing_to_tell_you_something_about_ehongbao,_which_is_becoming_popular_in_China.
Ehongbao is actually a kind of lucky money from and to relatives and friends during festivals or on special occasions. For many young people, grabbing ehongbao on their mobile phones is a fairly common and exciting activity. Unlike the tradition of elders giving lucky money to children, over half of the people sending ehongbao are in their 20s. It's just for fun or giving best wishes, while the sum of money matters little. In a word, ehongbao is bringing new color to the old tradition.
Nevertheless, I'm concerned about the safety of online payment. So rules and regulations need to be improved regarding the ehongbao system to guarantee its operation.
Best_wishes!
Yours,
Li_Hua
