[结构简析]是not…but句型，两个破折号中间是插入成分；中插入一个带with+N+participle短语 [参考译文]保证金率从50%增长到70%，并不是想要遏制群众方面猖獗的投机，而是联邦储备委员会想要保持现存于股市强劲基础——事实上股市由于群众非常庄严的参与——在技术上看起来相当强劲。 2.   Obviously,therecouldbenoguaranteethatthiswouldonceagainbethecase,but8 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。ifhistoryisanyguideline—andifbusinessandcorporateearningsweretocontinueonthesamecourse—continuedoptimismovertheoutlookforthestockmarketwouldseemmoreprudentthanpessimism. [结构简析]复合句。中间有插入语ifclause,进一步说明条件。 [参考译文]显然，不可能保证这种情况再次出现（情况再是这样）。可是，如果历史具有指导方针的话——如果商业和公司的利润仍然保持在同样轨道上——那么对股市前景乐观似乎要比悲观更精确些。 3.   Themarginincreaseunderscoredthegoodrisethatstockshadenjoyedforthepreviousyear—andthefactthata50%ratewasmaintainedaslongasitwaspointedupthefactthattherisewasmainlyconservativeinthatitwasconcentratedinthebluechipsforthemostpart. [结构简析]这句句子内有四个thatclause：第一个that是goodrise的定语从句。第二个和第三个that都是thefactthat句型。但第二个thefactthat中，aslongasitwas,指头一年，pointedup是谓语。第四个是inthat连词，义：因为。 写作方法与文章大意   文章论述“强劲证券市场”的种种情况。首先是联邦储备委员会为保持强股市基础要求保证金率增长。这种增长过去，现在，将来都能巩固强市。其次由于绝大部分集中在兰筹股上，使股市看好上升趋于保守，引出行业股比普通股吃香。最后是投资者心情和股市强弱有关。 答案祥解 1.   B.强劲证券市场（强市）。见难句译注1和第一段第三句：“那种保证金率的增长有力的巩固了强劲证券市场。从19……年起，这种增长导致一年来股市屡创新高。 A.买出股票的时候。 C.提高保证金率。   D.钢的市盈率。这三项都不对，它们只是文中涉及的方面。 2.   D.他寻找高业绩（即公司的产量或投资收益）。见文章倒数第三句：“当投资者——公众和团体机构——紧张而又悲观时，他们肯定在买进股票上举棋不定；他们寻求低价格/利润倍数和高额利润。 A.他们寻求联邦储备委员会的帮助。 B.他们买进钢材。 C.他们买进汽车股票。 3.   A. 因为在决定定价/利润比上难以分析。见第二段第二句：“在过去的投资保证上我们一直表达了这样的思想：行业股票在使用上可能超过普通股。我们依然相信情况可能就是这样。举例说：钢股往往在一定价格/利润比上抛出。低于一定比率，可认为股是好价值，而高于一定比率就是超价。如果一个公司就生产独一无二的产品，那市场分析就很难对公司所得定出数比。“ B.因为股市活动受兰筹股所限。  C.因为行情上升保守。这两项见难句译注3。 8 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 D.由于联邦储备基金会的行动。 4.   A.他们寻求加速的增长。见文章倒数第二句：“同样是这些股民，当投资者（对股市前景）持乐观态度时，他们不太关注（公司的）业绩（产值）而愿意以高价来购买具有高成长性的股票。”阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Throughoutthe1990sand2000suntiltoday,Domingocontinuedperforming,singingmanyofthesamerolesbutaddingnewrolesaswell,amongthemthetitlerolesinWagner‘sParsifalandMozart‘sIdomeneo,Rossini‘sIlbarbierediSivigliaasFigaro,Wagner’sDieWalküreasSiegmund,Lehár‘sTheMerryWidowasDaniloandAlfano‘sCyranodeBergeracasCyrano.Fromthemiddle1990stoearlyin2008alone,headded38newroles,coveringoperainsixdifferentlanguages(English,Italian,French,German,RussianandSpanish).ThelatestwastheItalianoperabyGeorgeFridericHandel,Tamerlano.Givinghimevengreaterinternationalrecognitionoutsideoftheworldofopera,heparticipatedinTheThreeTenors（男高音）concertattheeveofthe1990FIFAWorldCupFinalinRomewithJoséCarrerasandLucianoPavarotti.TheeventwasoriginallyplannedtoraisemoneyfortheJoséCarrerasInternationalLeukemia（白血病）Foundationandwaslaterrepeatedanumberoftimes,includingatthethreelaterWorldCupfinals(1994inLosAngeles,1998inParis,and2002inYokohama).Alone,Domingoagainmadeanappearanceatthefinalofthe2006WorldCupinBerlin,alongwithrisingstarsAnnaNetrebkoandRolandoVillazón.On24August2008,DomingoperformedaduetwithSongZuying,singingÀideHuǒyàn(TheFlameofLove)atthe2008SummerOlympicsclosingceremonyinBeijing.TheBeijingOlympicswerethesecondOlympicsheperformedat;hesangtheOlympicHymnattheclosingceremoniesoftheBarcelonaOlympics.AttheOlympicgamesthatfollowed,hewouldmeetSisselKyrkjebø,whoperformedtheOlympicHymnatboththeopeningandclosingceremoniesatthosegames.Inwhathasbeencalledhis‘finalcareermove’,PlácidoDomingoannouncedon25January2007thatin2009hewouldtakeononeofVerdi‘smostdemandingbaritone（男中音）roles,singingthetitleroleinSimonBoccanegra.ThefirstperformancewasatBerlinStateOperaonOctober24,followedby29otherperformancesduring2009/2010atmajoroperahousesaroundtheworld.Hewould,however,continuetosingtenorrolesbeforehandandafterwards.On16–17April2008hesangduringthevisitofPopeBenedictXVIatNationalsParkandatthe8 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。ItalianembassyinWashingtonD.C.Since1990PlácidoDomingohasreceivedmanyawardsandhonorsforhisachievementinthefieldofmusicandinrecognitionofhismanybenefitconcertsandcontributionstovariouscharities.On15March2009,TheMetropolitanOperacelebratedDomingo’s40thanniversarywiththecompanywithanon-stagegaladinnerattheMet’s125thanniversary,inhonourofhisfirstperformanceinAdrianaLecouvreurasMauriziooppositeRenataTebaldion28September1968.On29August2009hesangPanisAngelicusatthefuneralmassofSenatorTedKennedyintheBasilicaofOurLadyofPerpetualHelpinBoston,Massachusetts.OnSeptember20,2010,DomingoannouncedthathewouldrenewhiscontractasGeneralDirectoroftheLosAngelesOperathrough2013.OnSeptember27,2010,DomingoannouncedthathewillnotrenewhiscontractasGeneralDirectoroftheWashingtonNationalOperabeyonditsJune2011expirationdate.Everasympatheticcolleague,inMarch2011herefusedtosinginBuenosAiresuntilthecitysettledabittermusiciansstrikeattheTeatroColon.1.Whatcanweconcludefromthepassage?A.Domingocanonlysinginsixdifferentlanguages.B.Domingowonmanyawardsbecausehesangalot.C.JoséCarreraswaslaterdiagnosedwithLeukemia.D.Domingoenjoyedworld-widepopularityasaTenor.2.DomingodoesthefollowingEXCEPT___________.A.charityworkB.promotingworldsportsC.organizinganniversarycelebrationsD.formingapeacefulsociety3.SingingatdifferenteventsofworldsportsshowsthatDomingo___________.A.preferstotrysingingindifferentlanguagesincludingChineseB.enjoyswatchingsportseventsdespitehisbusyperformancesC.wouldbemorethanhappytodosomebenefitworkfortheworldD.knowsclearlythatsingingforsportseventshelpshimtobefamous4.Fromparagraph3,wecanseethatDomingoisa___________person.A.challengingB.strictC.responsibleD.hard-working【参考答案】DCCA8 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。8
