Although interior design has existed
since the beginning of architecture, its development into a specialized field is
really quite recent. Interior designers have become important partly because of
the many functions that might be {{U}}(61) {{/U}} in a single large
building. The importance of interior design becomes
{{U}}(62) {{/U}} when we realize how much time we {{U}}(63)
{{/U}} surrounded by four walls. Whenever we need to be indoors, we want our
surroundings to be {{U}}(64) {{/U}} attractive and comfortable as
possible. We also expect {{U}}(65) {{/U}} place to be appropriate to its
use. You would be {{U}}(66) {{/U}} if the inside of your bedroom were
suddenly changed to look {{U}}(67) {{/U}} the inside of a restaurant.
And you wouldn't feel {{U}}(68) {{/U}} in a business office that has the
appearance of a school. It soon becomes clear that the interior
designer's most important {{U}}(69) {{/U}} is the function of the
particular {{U}}(70) {{/U}} . For example, a theater with poor sight
lines, poor sound-shaping qualities, and {{U}}(71) {{/U}} few
entries and exits will not work for {{U}}(72) {{/U}} purpose, no matter
how beautifully it might be {{U}}(73) {{/U}} . Nevertheless, it is not
easy to make suitable {{U}}(74) {{/U}} for different kinds of space,
lighting and decoration of everything from ceiling to floor. {{U}}(75)
{{/U}} addition, the designer must usually select furniture or design
built-in furniture according to the functions that need to be
served.
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查动词的用法。A项consisted意为“包含,包括”,通常用于词组consist of…例如:Water consists of hydrogen and oxygen.但此短语不能用于被动语态,因此可排除。B项contained意为“包含,具有”。例如:The can contains milk.罐里装的是牛奶。a list containing twelve items包括12个项目的一览表。文中此句意为:内部装潢已经变得很重要,部分原因是由于一幢单独的大楼内部可能具有多种功用。因此 B选项符合句意。C项composed意为“组成,构成”,常用于被动语态。常用词组是: be composed of(由……组成)。例如:Water is composed of hydrogen and oxygen.水是由氢和氧化合而成的。此空后面是介词in,因此不能与composed构成合理搭配,应排除。D项comprised意为“包含,包括;由……组成”通常不用于被动结构。例如:The committee comprises seven persons.委员会由7人组成。此句为被动结构,因此D项也可排除。故选B项。
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查形容词的词义。A项obscure意为“晦涩的;无名的;隐藏的”,例如: an obscure text难解的文本;an obscure author不知名的作家;an obscure meaning言外之意。B项attractive意为“有吸引力的,引起兴趣的”。C项appropriate意为“适合的,恰当的”,例如:Plain,simple cloths are appropriate for school wear.简朴的服装适合上学时穿。D项evident意为“明显的,明白的”,例如:evident defeat (disappointment)明显的失败(失望)。此句意为:“当我们意识到要在四面墙中度过多少时光的时候,内部装潢的重要性就很……。”很显然此处只有D项符合句意。其他三项均不正确。故选 D项。
【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查名词的词义。A项care意为“小心;担心;留心”。例如:Take care there's no mistake.当心不要弄错。The children have the best of care in new China.在新中国儿童受到无微不至的关怀。B项concern表示“所关切的事;关心,担心”,例如:an important concern要事;show concern for sb. 对某人表示关心。C项attention意为“注意;注意力;留心”,例如:pay attention to state affairs关心国家大事;listen with attention专心听。D项intention意为“意图;打算;意义”,例如:have no intention of staying无意留下,不打算留下。He did it by intention.他故意做了这事。根据上下文及相关的背景知识可知,只有B项符合。故选B项。
【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查副词的用法。too修饰形容词时,强调数量上不合理或不可接受,常译为“太……”。此处讲到“一个戏院的出入口太少当然会不合理,”故选A。quite一般不可以直接修饰few,通常构成固定词组quite a few表示“不少”的意思。此处缺少a,所以此项不正确。a与few一起构成短语a few,表示“若干”。如果说一个戏院有若干出入口,当然是合理的,而不是“will not work”(不合理)。显然不符合句意,可排除。 far通常不与数量形容词连用,也可排除。故选A项。
