C。take 意为“拿走、带去”;carry 意为“携带、搬运”。fetch 意为“去取来”。前面三词与句意不符。而bring“带来、带来”,表示农民把他们生产的水果和蔬菜带到城市里来。 2. B。close 意为“关、封闭”。此句表示:这些农民封闭一条街,不许车辆通行,作为交易市场。 3. A。produce 意为“农产品(尤指水果、蔬菜等)”。 4. D。shop 意为“买东西”。 5. B。immediately意为“立即、直接地”。此句表示:农民收获后立即就把农产品拿到市场去卖,因此他们的东西比杂货店的要新鲜。 6. C。freshest 意为“最新鲜的”。与上句中的fresher对应,一大早的水果、蔬菜是最新鲜的。 7. C。which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的名词the outdoor market,说明露天市场像节日一样。 8. C。sound可指任何可以听到的“声音”。与下文的叫卖声、讨价还价声相一致。 9. D。advertising 意为“广告(总称)”。由上句可知:这些农民高声叫喊是为他们的产品做广告。 10. A。customer意为“顾客”。农民高声叫卖是为了招来顾客买他们的产品。 11. D。make 意为“使”。句意为:这些橘子果汁丰富、味道好、富含维生素,能使你们的孩子健康强壮。 12. A。argue意为“争吵”。买东西的常常为了降低价格而与农民讨价还价,发生争吵是常有的事。 13. B。price 意为“价格”,后面也提到价格问题。 14. C。actor 意为“演员”。作者把市场交易比作一场戏,那么所有的买东西的人和卖东西的人都是演员。因为他们都充当这曲戏中的一个角色。 15. D。expert意为“专家、能手”。指作者的母亲是买东西的能手,会挑选东西,会讨价还价。 16. D。expensive意为“价高的、昂贵的”。在讨价还价中,买东西的人总是会说“价格太高、太贵”之的类话。 17. B。hurt意为“使痛心”。hurt可指肉体或精神上的伤害。这里指买东西的出价太低而痛心,不指肉体的伤害或损伤,因而其他动词不宜用。 18. C。honest意为“诚实的、老实的”。意即:老实人要的老实价,与后面的these are the cheapest tomatoes on the market 相一致。 19. D。agree on sth表示经过讨论或协商后达成一致。这里表示经过一番讨价还价之后,最终把价格确定下来。 20. C。satisfied意为“满意的”。只有当价格在买卖双方都认为合理时,交易才能实现,这时买卖双方才感到满意。 正确个数 错误个数 正确率 得分(满分30分) 自我评价
