参考解析
解析:本句意思是:在周游世界多年后,那个人最终决定安定下来,接手父亲留给他的生意。短语settle down to意为“定居,专注于”。focus on意为“专注于”如:Today we're going to focus on the question of homeless people.今天,我们主要讨论无家可归者的问题。depend on意为“依靠”,如:You can depend on him to make a sound choice.你可以依靠他作出正确的选择。insist on意为“坚持”,如:If you insist on leaving now , please go ahead.你一定要走,那就请便吧。dwell on意为“居住”,如:A great number of water fowls dwell on the island.许多水鸟在岛上栖息。只有选项A同句中画线词语含义接近。

Passage 1Once an honored man was having a birthday party. His sons and servants were busy welcoming guests. A thief slipped into the house. He hid himself by lying face down on a beam in the ceiling of the hall where the birthday banquet was to be held. From there, the thief could look down upon the guests and see all the gifts of silks, jade, and jewels brought in. He tried to remember where these were put so that he could steal them after the party was over.Later that evening, the host was looking at all his presents happily. He leaned over them with his back turned to the thief hiding on the beam. The thief was looking around the room so that he would be able to move quietly when the lights were off. As the thief hung his head over the beam it made a shadow on the floor.The host did not show that he had seen the shadow. He called for his servant to set a table for one guest with the best food and drink. Turning towards the beam on which the thief lay, he bowed low and said, “Will the gentleman on the roof-beam now come down to have some refreshments?”There was nothing else the thief could do but climb down. His host fed him well. After the thief had eaten his fill, the host gave him a bag of silver coins and begged him to make good use of them. Then the host saw the thief to the door and bid him good night.Ten years passed, and again the honored man held a birthday party. Many visitors came to bring him presents. The man was very old by now and could not greet all theguests. His grandson met the visitors at the door and invited them to dine with his grandfather in the evening. He then took the gifts in for the old man to see.Towards the end of the day a stranger came, bringing gifts of gold and jewels. He would not give his name, but asked to see the honored old man.The stranger was led to the old man’s room. The old man did not know this guest and asked for his name.The stranger smiled, “I am an honest man. I have learned to live a good life. But it was not always so. Do you remember how you once asked me to come down from the roof-beam and eat your food?”The host was amazed. He was even more surprised when he heard how his kindness had changed the thief into an honest man.21. How did the thief get into the house?A. He carefully disguised himself as a guest.B. He followed the servants, carrying dishes.C. He broke into the house through a window.D. He went into the house without being noticed.

Passage FiveFrom the beginning rivers have played an important part in the life of man. Man of the earliest times used the rivers as a means of traveling. Today rivers still serve as a great waterway for the transport and people.In ancient times, man settled near rivers or on river banks and built up large empires.Water is the Nature's most precious gift to man. Man needs water to irrigate his crops, to cook and to wash. In nations all over the world rivers mean life and wealth. They feed and clothe the nations around them.Water is also a source of energy and power. Man constructs huge dams across the river to control the water for irrigation and get the energy needed to drive generators. The electrical power is then directed to homes, cities, factories and television stations.Man uses water each day. His main source of water comes from reservoirs, which in turn get their water from the rivers.Rivers also bring down soil and minerals from the mountains and deposit them on the plains building up rich river deltas for raising plants and crops. Fresh water life in rivers or in lakes fed by them provide man with food.In a small way rivers help to keep man in good health and provide for his amusements. Various forms of water sports keep man strong and healthy.Rivers have run on this earth long before man. Man's future ability to live is uncertain, but rivers will flow on forever.52. Rivers have been important to man______.A. since the last centuryB. for a very long timeC. since a few hundred years agoD. since a few years ago

Brotherly LoveAdidas and Puma have been two of the biggest names in sports shoe manufacturing for over half a century.Since 1928 they have supplied shoes for Olympic athletes,World Cup一winning football heroes,Muhammad Ali,hip hop stars and rock musicians famous all over the world.But the story of these two companies begins in one hoise in the town of Herzogenaurach,Germany.Adolph and Rudolph Dassler were the sons of a shoemaker.They loved sport but complained that they could never find comfortable shoes to play in.Rudolph always said,“You cannot play sports wearing shoes that you'd walk around town with.”So they started making their own.In 1920 Adolph made the first pair of athletics shoes with spikes(钉),produced on the Dasslers,kitchen table.On 1st July 1924 they formed a shoe company,Dassler Brothers Ltd and they worked together for many years.The company became successful and it provided the shoes for Germany's athletes at the 1928 and 1932 Olympic Games.But in 1948 the brothers argued.No one knows exactly what happened,but family mem-bers have suggested that the argument was about money or women.The result was that Ad-olph left the company.His nickname was Adi,and using this and the first three letters of the family name,Dassler,he founded Adidas.Rudolph relocated across the River Aurach and founded his own company too.At first he wanted to call it Ruda,but eventually he called it Puma,after the wild cat.The famous Pu-ma logo of the jumping cat has hardly changed since.After the big split of 1948 Adolph and Rudolph never spoke to each other again and their companies have now been in competition for over sixty years.Both companies were for many years the market leaders,though Adidas has always been more successful than Puma.A hip hop group,Run DMC,has even written a song called“My Adidas”and in 2005 Adidas bought Reebok,another big sports shoe company.The terrible family argument should really be forgotten,but ever since it happened, over sixty years ago,the town has been split into two.Even now,some Adidas employees and Puma employees don't talk to each other.The brothers'father was a ball maker.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mention
