     C．changes

     D．contributions

    30．A．generally

     B．basically

     C．usually

     D．certainly

     

    21. C

    解析：固定短语mistake A for B，误以为是诺贝尔死了

    22. B

    解析：媒体界术语。A项意为介绍，不符合语境；C项意为暗示，从下文可知该报是光明正大地渲染，并无遮掩；D项意为打广告，不合情理

    23. C

    解析：有钱人才能设立奖项哪，下文也提及了钱。首先排除B项生病，纯粹是恶意干扰项；A、D项都有些合理成分，但不符合整篇文章的主线发展。

    24.  A

    解析：诺贝尔看到自己“死”后，世人竟然这么评价自己，心中很不是滋味儿。B项意为焦虑的，遇到紧迫的事情而紧张；C项意为兴奋的，哪有人看到别人骂自己还兴奋的？与题意相悖；D项错因类似C项

    25.  A

    解析：见22空后的the death of Alfred Nobel。B项意为疾病，偏离主线；C项意为麻烦，程度太轻；D项意为进攻，诺贝尔只是个卖军火的，并未参与战争。

    26.  D

    解析：怀念、纪念，诺贝尔想给自己留个好名儿。A项意为补偿，世人并不欠他的；B项意为描述，是很迷惑考生的，你没上当吧；C项意为支持，也是很迷惑的，但他已近暮年，更需要的是世人的怀念

    27.  C

    解析：遗嘱。这个题应该是考验基础词汇量的，估计很多考生在盲目追求高难词汇的时候，已遗忘了这些最“幼稚”的单词了吧。

    28. A

    解析：词汇辨析题。混淆项B意为形成，C为发展为，D为提拔、推销

    29.  D

    解析：奖励作出贡献的人。A项意为附加；B项意为牺牲，获奖者都必须要付出巨大牺牲么？C项意为改变，与cause搭配不当。

    30. B

    解析：这个题最有争议了。我认为这句话不可以直译为：诺贝尔在认识到他的人生的真正意义之前就不得不死去了。这不仅不合情理，也很明显与作者所设置的写作背景不符。语言是非常灵活的，我们不妨来意译：好在诺贝尔认识到了自己人生的真谛，否则他就是行尸走肉，灵魂早已死去。而这句话，则是作者对诺贝尔的评价。可以读得出来，作者对诺贝尔的晚年还是抱赞赏态度的。

    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.
    【小题1】 The underlined word “them” in the last second paragraph refers to _______.

    A．rolesB．peopleC．textsD．women
    【小题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.
    【小题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.
    【小题4】This passage is most likely taken from _______.
    A．a travel magazineB．a history bookC．a newspaperD．an advertisement

    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. It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given at all if there is no outstanding achievement. In 1972, for example, not a Nobel Prize was given.
