A. half not as much as                 ?????? B. much not as half as

C. not half as much as                 ?????? D. as much as not half

 

【答案】

C

【解析】

試題分析：句意：真便宜，這個(gè)裙子的價(jià)格沒(méi)有那個(gè)短裙價(jià)格的一倍多。這里用的是倍數(shù)的表達(dá)“倍數(shù)+as+adj+as”，否定詞not在be動(dòng)詞后面，half是倍數(shù)，放在as much as前面，所以選C。

考點(diǎn)：考查倍數(shù)的表達(dá)

People want action on noise, a recent public meeting in Brisbane showed. Some want technical improvements such as quieter air conditioners or better sound barriers around major roads. Others want tougher laws to restrict noise from building sites or to require owners to take responsibility for barking dogs. But the highest priority was a noise complaints system that works.

       Brisbane City Council receives more complaints about noise than all other problems put together. So it conducted a survey and found that about half its residents are upset by noise in one form or another –traffic, mowers, pool pumps, air conditioners or loud parties. This inspired the Council to bring together more than 100 citizens one evening to talk through a range of options.

       The meeting found the present regulatory system bizarre. Depending on the problem, responsibility for noise can lie with the Council, the Environment Protection Authority, one of three government departments or even the police. So complainants often feel they are getting the run-round. When the people at the forum were asked to vote for changes, the strongest response was for a 24-hour noise hotline to be the first port of call for all complaints.

       The forum also favored regulatory measures, such as tougher minimum standards for noise in appliances like air conditioners. This even makes economic sense, as noise is a waste of energy and money. Other measures the meeting supported were wider buffer (緩沖) zones around noisy activities and controls to keep heavy traffic away from residential areas.

       But there are obvious conflicts. Many people like to have a bar within walking distance if they feel like a drink, but they don’t want a noisy pub keeping them awake when they want an early night. Most people want to live near a major road providing good access to other parts of the city, but they don't’ want the problem of road noise.

       I was most interested by the proposals aimed at behavioral change. There was strong support for measures to reduce traffic: better public transport, cycleways and footpaths, even charges for road use. Many people optimistically thought industry awards for better equipment would stimulate the production of quieter appliances. It was even suggested that noise from building sites could be alleviated (減輕) if Brisbane adopted daylight saving, thus shifting the working day and providing longer, quieter evenings.

46. According to the recent public meeting in Brisbane, what was the first step to take in order to reduce noise pollution?

A. Produce quieter air conditioners.

B. Provide better sound barriers around major roads.

C. Establish a noise complaints system.

D. Make stricter laws to require owners to take responsibility for barking dogs.

47. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

A. the Brisbane residents were satisfied with the present noise regulatory system

B. many people in Brisbane preferred to live near a pub to which they have easy  

access

C. nearly all the inhabitants in Brisbane were bothered by noise in one form or 

another

D. noise pollution is the most serious among pollution complaints in Brisbane

48. What does the word “run-round” (Para. 3) mean?

A. Unfair treatment.                                         B. Quick response.

C. Delaying action in response to a request.         D. Full attention.

49. How could noise from building sites be alleviated if Brisbane adopted daylight saving?

A. If daylight saving was adopted, the daytime would be prolonged and the night

would become quieter.

B. If daylight saving was adopted, the working hours during the daytime would be shortened while the night would be extended and thus quieter.

C. If daylight saving was adopted, the night would be shortened and thus quieter.

D. If daylight saving was adopted, both the daytime and the night would be shortened and the noise would be reduced.

50. What was the author’s attitude towards the industry awards for quieter equipment?

A. Suspicious.        B. Positive.            C. Enthusiastic.             D. Indifferent.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年江蘇省蘇州五中高一下學(xué)期期初考試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water(自來(lái)水) before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing times for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Servings in restaurants are often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself. Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.
【小題1】Which statement is TRUE?

A．American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
B．A hostess always seats a small group at a large table.
C．American people never sit with people they don’t know.
D．American people will not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
【小題2】What is served before you order?
A．BreadB．ButterC．CoffeeD．Cold water
【小題3】What are the opening and closing times for stores and restaurants in the US?
A．There are no rules about opening and closing times for stores and restaurants.
B．Stores may be open 24 hours a day in every city.
C．Especially in large cities, stores may be open around the clock.
D．You can enter a bar at any time in the US.

Café en Seine

The wildly luxury(奢華) new art style of this huge bar has been a massive hit since it first opened in 1995, and while it may not be the “in” place it once was, it is still very popular with the after-work crowd and out-of-towners. Maybe it’s the glass frames, or the real 12m-high trees; but most likely it’s the beautiful people supporting the wood-and-marble bar.

Good for: decoration, cocktails, amazing food and service

Address: 40 Dawson St

Transport: all city centre

Phone: 01 677 4369

Gravediggers (aka Kavanagh’s)

The gravediggers from the neighboring Glasnevin Cemetery had a secret serving hatch(艙口)  so that they could drink on the job – hence the pub’s nickname. Founded in 1833 by one John Kavanagh and still in the family, this pub is one of the best in Ireland, almost unchanged in 150 years. In summer time the green of the square is full of drinkers basking in the sun, while inside the hardened locals ensure that never a hint of sunshine disturbs some of the best Guinness in town. An absolute classic.

Good for: Guinness, traditional pub, pub food

Address: 1 Prospect Sq Glasnevin

Transport: 13 from city centre

Phone: 830 7978

Davy Byrne’s

James Joyce, an Irish author and a poet (1882-1941), would hardly recognise the bar that Leopold Bloom rushed into for a gorgonzola sandwich and a glass of wine in Ulysses. It doesn’t stop Davy Byrne’s from making the most of its Joyce’s connections, even though today's version is strictly for out-of-towners and the rugby crowd.

Good for: socializing with the locals, tasty Irish food, watching TV

Address: 21 Duke St

Transport: all city centre

Website: www.davybyrnes.com

Phone: 01 677 5217
