21-25 CBCAA 26-30 DCADB 


解析:

21.因mistake A for B （將A誤以為B）是固定搭配。

22.由常識(shí)可知，報(bào)社應(yīng)是“發(fā)布”消息，故用announce （give information about）。

23.由首句became a millionaire可知。

24.根據(jù)常識(shí)，看到自己本來死卻報(bào)道死了這樣的消息，特別是說自己通過kill more people faster來發(fā)財(cái)?shù)脑u(píng)論，應(yīng)當(dāng)是“不高興，苦惱（unhappy or annoyed）”，不可能是“興奮的（excited）”“高興的（pleased）”“渴望的（anxious）”。

25與destruction（毀滅）并列并且上文death原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)故選出A。

26.由后文設(shè)立獎(jiǎng)金可知，是為了改變自我形象，要設(shè)法“被別人充滿愛與尊敬地銘記（be remember with love and respect）”。

27.由最后一句Nobel had to die before he realized…可知，是在“遺囑（will）”中作的安排。

28.根據(jù)與名詞the Nobel prizes的搭配，又結(jié)合常識(shí)，應(yīng)當(dāng)是“設(shè)立”諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)金。

29.獎(jiǎng)金應(yīng)當(dāng)是將給那些為世界和平、文學(xué)和科學(xué)等領(lǐng)域做出過巨大貢獻(xiàn)的人。make contributions to…（對(duì)……作出貢獻(xiàn)）是固定搭配。

30.這個(gè)題最有爭(zhēng)議了。我認(rèn)為這句話不可以直譯為：諾貝爾在認(rèn)識(shí)到他的人生的真正意義之前就不得不死去了。這不僅不合情理，也很明顯與作者所設(shè)置的寫作背景不符。語(yǔ)言是非常靈活的，我們不妨來意譯：好在諾貝爾認(rèn)識(shí)到了自己人生的真諦，否則他就是行尸走肉，靈魂早已死去。

而這句話，則是作者對(duì)諾貝爾的評(píng)語(yǔ)�？梢宰x得出來，作者對(duì)諾貝爾的晚年還是抱贊賞態(tài)度的。

For a writer, there is hardly any greater honor than winning the Nobel Prize for literature.
And for a woman writer, claiming the prize is even harder, for only eight women once won it. Austria’s Elfriede Jelinek is the ninth and the first since 1996.
The Stockholm-based Swedish Academy announced last Thursday that Jelinek won this year’s Nobel Prize in literature. She is recognized for her socially critical(批判的) novels and plays.
Jelinek, 57, made her literary debut (初次露面) in 1967. She has written plays, novels and poetry. She is best known for her autobiographical 1983 novel “The Piano Teacher”, made into a movie in 2001.
The basic theme of her work is the inability of women to live as people beyond the roles and personalities traditionally expected of them. Her characters struggle to lead lives not normally acceptable in society. “The nature of Jelinek’s texts is often hard to define. They shift between prose(散文) and poetry and songs, they contain theatrical scenes and film script,” said the academy.
The Nobel Prize was founded by Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel. Nobel died in 1896 and left his fortune of about US $920 million to a fund to honor people who have helped other human beings. This year each prize is worth US $13 million.
【小題1】 The underlined word “them” in the last second paragraph refers to _______.

A．rolesB．peopleC．textsD．women
【小題2】Elfrede Jelinek won the Nobel Prize just because _______.
A．she was an Austrian woman writer
B．she wrote socially critical novels and plays
C．her novel “The Piano Teacher” was made into a movie
D．the nature of her texts is hard to define.
【小題3】 Which of the following about the Nobel Prize is TRUE?
A．It is harder for a woman writer to win than a man writer.
B．The total prize every year was $920 million.
C．Women writers were not awarded until 1996.
D．Only eight women writers won the prize since 1996.
【小題4】This passage is most likely taken from _______.
A．a(chǎn) travel magazineB．a(chǎn) history bookC．a(chǎn) newspaperD．a(chǎn)n advertisement

A Nobel Prize is considered by most people one of the highest international honors a person can receive. As you know, the prizes were started by a Sweden called Sweden Alfred Nobel. Alfred Nobel was born in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, and lived from 1833 to 1896.
Alfred Nobel was a chemist and inventor. He made two important inventions, so he became very rich. Although he was rich, Nobel was not a happy man. He never married or had children. Also, he was a sick man in large part of his life. Nobel died at the age of sixty-three. When he died, he left a fund of $9,000,000. The money was to be used in giving prizes to those who made outstanding achievement in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, and the promotion(促進(jìn))of the world peace.

Often a prize is given to just one person, but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared. It might be given to two or more people who have worked together.
