      win the competition, she devoted herself to getting ready for it.

A.So as toB.In order thatC.In order toD.So that

C

解析试题分析:考查固定短语用法。So as to do sth为了做某事;在句中做目的状语,不能放在句首;in order to do sth为了做某事;也是做目的状语,可以放在句首。BD两项that后面要接完整的句子。故C项正确。
考点:考查固定短语用法
点评:本题要特别注意的in order that/so that后面要接句子;而so as to不能放在句首,这些固定短语的固定用法,要多加积累。要掌握好英语,记忆相当数量的词组是必不可少的。英语中的每一个词组,不仅表达一定的概念,具有一定的词汇意义,而且在语音、拼法、语法等方面都有自己的特点。在学生学习英语的过程中,单词、词组记忆是基础。解答这类题目,关键是理解题干意思以及各选项词组的意思,可以像数学中的代入法一样,依次把各个选项意思放入句子中进行比较,不难选出正确答案。

A political scientist from Indiana University whose work exploring how people come together to protect their collective (共有的)resources may provide important clues in the fight against elimate change has become the first woman to win the Nobel prize for economics.

Elinor Ostrom, 76, shares the award with fellow American academic Oliver E. Williamson, 77. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced to the world the pair had been chosen to win the 40th prize in economic sciences.

For Ostrom, the award came, as she showed, as a “big surprise”. To rise to the summit of her area of learning has been an big journey, as she has had to struggle against her own weaknesses and the impediments (妨碍)of the system. At school in Los Angeles she suffered from stuttering(口吃). She also faced the hurdles (障碍) common to most women of her generation entering the sciences--she was discouraged from taking a PhD when she applied for graduate school.

Her field of study has been striking for how cross-disciplinary (交叉训练的)it is. Early on she gained a reputation for bringing economics, political science and sociology together.

What interests her is how common property can be managed successfully through groups in society. One of the first subjects that interested her was management of water resources.

The findings of her research have been striking, because they have challenged the traditional idea that common property is poorly managed unless it is either regulated by government or privatized. She has shown how individuals can work together and form collectives that protect the resource at hand.

“A lot of people are waiting for more international co-operation to solve global warming,” said Ostrom, “It is important that there is international agreement, but we can take steps at family level community level, and national level … There are many steps that can be taken. That will not solve it on their own but continuously will make a big difference.”

1. Why was Ostrom not advised to take a PhD?

A. Because she was a stutter who didn’t speak fluently.

    B. Because she was a woman who was prejudiced then.

    C. Because she was as common as other women in science.

    D. Because she didn’t receive a degree of master yet.

2. Which of the following statements may Ostrom agree to?

    A. Only government can make full use of common property.

    B. Private enterprise can control individual behavior.

    C. Different people should work together to protect the resources.

    D. Individuals play a minor role in fighting climate change.

3. Ostrom was awarded the Nobel Prize for economics because _______.

    A. she brought economics and political science into sociology

    B. she predicted the breakout of the global financial crisis

    C. she worked on the relationship between individuals and government

    D. she put forward a new theory to help fight against climate change

4. The passage mainly tells us that ________.

    A. the Nobel Prize for economics was first won by a woman

    B. Elinor Ostrom’s work may help fight poverty

    C. the first woman won the Nobel Prize in America

D. the Nobel Prize for economics is shared this year
