题目列表(包括答案和解析)

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. Goods for auction (拍卖) sales
  B. Definition of bidding
  C. Way to sell more goods by auction
  D. Auction sales in history
  E. Brief introduction to auctions
  F. Making a larger profit as an auctioneer
【小题1】______
Auctions are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or “bids”, for the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called “knocking down” the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table at which he stands.
【小题2】 ______
The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes from the Latin auction, meaning “increasing”. The Romans usually sold in this way the goods taken in war. In England in the eighteenth centuries, goods were often sold “by the candle”: a short candle was lit by the auctioneer, and bids could be made while it stayed alight.
【小题3】 ______
Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, silk and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and similar works of art.
【小题4】 ______
An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a “lot”, is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and continue in the order of numbers: he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in.
【小题5】 ______
The auctioneer’s services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible. He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other.

  [阅读材料]

  Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between his language and others’ language. Bit by bit, he makes the right changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things. They learn to talk, run, climb, ride a bicycle by comparing their own behaviors with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school teachers never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, even fewer chances for him to correct himself. They do it all for him. Teachers act as if the student would never notice a mistake if they did not point out it to him. They act as if the student would never correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let the student do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word means and what the answer is to that problem.

  Commodities(日用品)are basic materials that are used and traded worldwide.The price of commodities helps determine how much a business can charge for a product and the profit it can make.Commodity prices have reached a two-year high since falling sharply during the world financial crisis.

  Hard commodities are materials like iron ore, oil and gold.Agricultural products are soft commodities.These include wheat, cotton and rice.

  Economic measures show the world economy is recovering.China and India, for example, have reported strong growth in manufacturing(制造业).Developed nations have had slower growth.John James, a business professor at Pace University, says demand in developing economics can push up prices for commodities like oil and iron are used for making steel.But, he says, changing currency values can also influence prices.

  Gold prices have reached record levels in recent months.That means gold dealers must pay more for the commodity now than they did only a year ago.That affects current prices.

  Not surprisingly, manufacturers want some control over the prices they pay for commodities.Futures(期货)contracts are agreements between a buyer and a seller to exchange something at a set price at some time in the future.These contracts let buyers lock in a price for basic materials.But some traders in futures markets only want to make a profit.They buy or sell contracts depending on the direction they believe prices will go.These speculators(投机者)get condemned when prices rise, or fall, too quickly.The United States, Germany and France are looking into ways to limit this kind of trading.

  Some experts say exporting commodities is not a good path to long-term economic growth.The United Nations recently reported that the least developed countries must change their economics to provide good incomes for their citizens.A UN official says the least developed countries need to cut dependence on commodities and manufacture products for export.He says only this will let them gain from world trade.
