They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples - people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.11.Which of the following has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses?A.Selling home furnishings.B.Renting furnished apartments.C.Selling used furniture.D.Renting home furnishings.答案：D12.Why do some people prefer to rent furniture?A.Because the furniture they get in this way is new.B.Because it saves them a lot of money.C.Because it saves them much trouble and money.D.Because they can always get better quality furniture in this way.答案：C13.What can you infer from the passage?A.The idea of renting furniture is not acceptable.B.Renting furniture is not popular in the couple’s home town.C.Only those who don’t have enough money to rent furniture.D.People usually grow to like the furniture they have rented.答案：B14.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A.Rent or Buy?B.A New Way of Getting Home Furnishings.C.Furnished Apartments.D.A New Idea.答案：B15.Young people liked renting home furniture because_________A.they have less money.B.they don’t want to buy old furniture.C.the new furniture is of good quality.D.they don’t have much money and don’t want to buy the cheap furniture.答案：D三、词汇与语法16.The Japanese, ______ average, live much longer than the Europeans.A.withB.inC.toD.on答案：D17.The reason I didn't go to Canada was _______ a new job.A.because I gotB.how I gotC.that I gotD.why I got答案：C18.The young lady coming over to us _____ our English teacher; the way she walks tells us that!A.must beB.can beC.would beD.could be答案：A19.The computer system ________ suddenly while he was searching for information on the Internet.A.broke downB.broke outC.broke upD.broke in答案：A20.His mother _____alone since his father died.A.livedB.livesC.has livedD.is living答案：C四、完型填空Mary was an English girl, but she lived in Paris.

英语翻译基础历年真题试卷汇编88(题后含答案及解析)全部题型 2. 英汉互译英汉互译英译汉1． A fully-automatic factory, as we are able to envisage it today, takes the form of a complete factory with only a few skilled engineers to keep it in running order and a control committee to decide on the broad outline of the production plan. The details of the production plan will be decided by a computer which receives all the information necessary for the efficient running of a business. This machine will process the information fed to it and pass on the results both to the control committee and to a second large special-purpose computer acting as the central production controller.正确答案：全自动化工厂，就我们目前能预见到的而言，是一种完全配套的工厂，仅需几位熟练的工程师来维持它的正常运行，并加上一个管理委员会对生产计划的大轮廓作出决定。

具体的生产计划将由一台能接收所有有效信息以保证商业正常运营的计算机来决定。

该计算机对所接收到的信息进行加工处理之后，再把它传递给管理委员会和另一台相当于中央生产控制器具备特殊效能的计算机。
