Internet is an important _____ for people to get the latest news.


  1. A.
    source
  2. B.
    origin
  3. C.
    resource
  4. D.
    cause
A
试题分析:考查名词的意义。source指“消息来源”时,通常不举出具体的消息来源。本身指原始资料,不能加original修饰。origin多指“始于遥远的时间或地点” 这两个词均可指事物的起点。source多用于隐喻,说明河流的源头或收入、情报、消息等来源。resources在表示“……资源”时,一般在其后接介词in,如resources in coal and iron(媒与铁资源);resource在做单复数,以及前面接不同的修饰词时,表示不同的意思,如a person of great resource表示“—个富于应变之才的人”,a person of many resources表示“一个富于消遣方法的人”,a person of no resource表示“一个没有应变之才的人”,以及a person of no resources表示“—个没有消遣方法的人”;
cause用作名词的基本意思是“原因,起因”,指产生一种后果的起因,也可指导致某事情发生的人或事物,是可数名词。
cause也可作“理由,缘故”解,是不可数名词。
cause还可表示极力维护或支持的“目标”“原则”“运动”或“事业”,是可数名词。根据语意这里指因特网是人们获得最新的消息来源。故选A
考点:考查名词意义及用法辨析。
点评:本题难度适中。命题者在于让学生区分这四个名词的用法及意义,学生容易误选的是C,这两个词在词形上也相似,这也是命题者容易考查词形相似的单词辨析。平时学生应注意这方面的知识的积累。
即学即练:Inspiration is a _____of creation
A. source    B. origin   C. resource   D. cause
解析:Aj句意:灵感是创作的源泉。

On Saturday nights, A.J.Coston doesn’t get a lot of sleep. Usually three or four times a night, a loud bell rings, a red light flashes, and he has to jump out of his bed. That’s because he’s a weekend volunteer firefighter(消防员)with Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Station 13 in Northern Virginia. During the week, he lives at home with his mom, dad and sister and does his main job which is going to high school.
“I have always wanted to get into firefighting since I was a little kid watching fire trucks go by,” he says. “One day on the Internet I noticed that Loudoun County offered a junior firefighter program.” He was only 16, but he got it.

“Teamwork is most important,” he says. “It’s the whole team that puts the fire out.”

He will be off to college next fall, building on his dream job. “I’ll get my degree in emergency(紧急情况) medical care. and then work in a fire and rescue company for a while.
