This listening material, together with its CD-ROMs, ____________well. A. sells B. sell C. is sold D. are sold 【答案】A 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】句意：这些听力材料，连同它的光盘卖得很好。 考查主谓一致及语态。根据句意，东西卖的好，表示现在的一种状态，故用一般现在时。并且当sell后接副词时，其主动形式表示被动含义。together with 连接几个主语时，谓语动词要与最前面的主语保持一致， 即与 listening material 保持一致，所以sell用单数形式；故答案选A。 【点睛】表示事物性质或特点的，用主动形式表示被动语态。此处表示这个听力材料卖得好，sell可用作及物动词和不及物动词，其主语一般是指人，但是在表示某物卖得不错时，要用主动语态表示被动。together with 连接几个主语时，谓语动词要与最前面的主语保持一致，即采用就远原则，本句是与listening material保持一致，所以谓语动词用单数形式。故答案选A。 31.

You are in the middle, so you should choose a middle way for your life. Stay at home with your mother and me. Your elder brother didn’t listen to me, and now he is dead. If you do not listen to me, you will have a difficult life.” I tried to do what he wanted me to do, but I couldn’t. I spoke to my mother. “Please ask Dad if he will let me have one voyage (航海) by sea,” I asked her, “When I return, I will live the life he wants me to live.” Mum was angry. “Your father will not let you go. I don’t want you to go to sea either. It’s dangerous.” I argued with my parents for another year. Then, I went to Hull with a friend who was going to London by ship. He invited me to go with him, and I agreed. I did not even tell my parents before leaving. I just went. That was how all my bad luck began. —Taken from Robinson Crusoe 54.

They are not just tools (工具) to keep people away from rain or sunlight, but also works of art (艺术品) with rich cultural meaning in China. Chinese oil-paper umbrellas are one of the world’s oldest umbrellas. According to historical records, the first oil-paper umbrella came out during the Eastern Han Dynasty. They soon became very popular, especially among the literati (文人). They loved to write and draw on the umbrella to show their literacy tastes and painting skills. Oil-paper umbrellas are a necessary part of traditional Chinese weddings (婚礼). A red oil-paper umbrella is needed when the bride (新娘) goes into the groom’s home. That’s because people believe the umbrella can help stop bad luck. Also, the sound of oil-paper in Chinese sounds like “youzi”, which means having more children. It takes quite a lot of time and effort to make a Chinese oil-paper umbrella by hand. Luzhou in southwest China’s Sichuan Province is now the only main production place for handmade oil-paper umbrellas in China. There, craftsmen (手艺人) must complete more than 90 steps and use over 100 different tools to make a single umbrella. With all their efforts, a traditional oil-paper umbrella made in Luzhou can stand strong winds and 3,000 openings and closings. 76.

My father gave me a good education and wanted me to be a lawyer (律师). However, I wanted to be a sailor and go to sea. My father was very angry with me. He didn’t understand why I wanted to leave his house, where I would have an easy and comfortable life. “Two kinds of people go to sea,” he said. “They are the very poor people and the very rich people. The poor are foolish, having no other way to live. The rich own ships and can make money with them. You are neither too poor nor too rich. You are in the middle, so you should choose a middle way for your life. Stay at home with your mother and me. Your elder brother didn’t listen to me, and now he is dead. If you do not listen to me, you will have a difficult life.” I tried to do what he wanted me to do, but I couldn’t. I spoke to my mother. “Please ask Dad if he will let me have one voyage (航海) by sea,” I asked her, “When I return, I will live the life he wants me to live.” Mum was angry. “Your father will not let you go. I don’t want you to go to sea either. It’s dangerous.” I argued with my parents for another year. Then, I went to Hull with a friend who was going to London by ship. He invited me to go with him, and I agreed. I did not even tell my parents before leaving. I just went. That was how all my bad luck began. —Taken from Robinson Crusoe 54.

They are not just tools (工具) to keep people away from rain or sunlight, but also works of art (艺术品) with rich cultural meaning in China. Chinese oil-paper umbrellas are one of the world’s oldest umbrellas. According to historical records, the first oil-paper umbrella came out during the Eastern Han Dynasty. They soon became very popular, especially among the literati (文人). They loved to write and draw on the umbrella to show their literacy tastes and painting skills. Oil-paper umbrellas are a necessary part of traditional Chinese weddings (婚礼). A red oil-paper umbrella is needed when the bride (新娘) goes into the groom’s home. That’s because people believe the umbrella can help stop bad luck. Also, the sound of oil-paper in Chinese sounds like “youzi”, which means having more children. It takes quite a lot of time and effort to make a Chinese oil-paper umbrella by hand. Luzhou in southwest China’s Sichuan Province is now the only main production place for handmade oil-paper umbrellas in China. There, craftsmen (手艺人) must complete more than 90 steps and use over 100 different tools to make a single umbrella. With all their efforts, a traditional oil-paper umbrella made in Luzhou can stand strong winds and 3,000 openings and closings. 76. Do people use oil-paper umbrellas on sunny days? ________________________________ 77. When did the first oil-paper umbrella appear? ________________________________ 78. Why did the literati (文人) love to write and draw on the umbrella? ________________________________ 79.
