一、说明文七选五
例1 The word “boycott” comes to English through Irish, which can be used as both a verb and a noun. As a verb, boycott means to refuse to do something as a form of protest(抗 议). People who boycott something are often looking for social, economic(经济的) or political change.__36__People stop using goods or services during a boycott until changes are made. __37__ In the mid1800s, a young man, Charles Boycott, worked as a land agent for the owner of a large country farm in Ireland. __38__ Later, the farmers demanded lower rents. Boycott refused, and even kicked some of them out of the farm. As a result, another man named Davitt came into conflict with Boycott.
In 1879, Davitt founded a group called the Land League, which sought to help poor farmers. He suggested to the farmers that they refuse to do business with Boycott. __39__ Since Boycott's workers and servants refused to carry out his orders, the crops in his fields went bad. The community turned their back on the Boycott's family and they were forced to move.
At the end of 1880, some British newspapers began using Boycott's name when reporting on a protest of unfair methods or actions. __40__ By the late 1880s, The New York Times was reporting on boycotts. The word was generally used to describe labour protests against businesses. These days, consumers are able to use their buying power to boycott businesses they consider unfair.
A. The usage quickly spread.
B. In fact, it began with a man's name.
C. This form of protest proved effective.
D. However, its original meaning is still unknown.
E. As a noun, the word boycott has a somewhat different meaning.
F. Otherwise, his last name may become a word people use when they protest.
G. Boycott's job was to collect rents from the farmers who rented fields of the farm.
