参考解析
解析:文章前一句给出了生活水平的定义,此处需要一个承上启下的词。however表示含义的转折。furthermore意为“此外、而且”,表示意义的递进。similarly意为“相似地”。 therefore意为“因此”,表示因果关系。这部分是说由于任何一个国家的“生活水平”是指平均每个人所得到的这个国家生产出的商品和服务量,因此,一个国家的生活水平首先并且最重要的是依靠其创造财富的能力。选择D项最合适。
first and foremost是固定搭配,意思是“首要的、第一的”,因此选择C项。
该空前面是否定句,联系前后文,意思是我们不是依赖金钱生活,而是依赖金钱所购买的东西生活。只有not...but有“不是······而是”的意思,因此选项B是正确的。
此空指代的是前面的many factors , these和that都指代不清,所以需要一个引导非限制性定语从句的关联词,只有which合适,因此选择D项。
此处许多人可能会认为depend on是固定搭配,意思是“依靠”,但实际上介词upon出现后面,中间插入了短语to a great extent。因此此处只能选B。
本句是介词短语放在句首的倒装句,主语在空的后面即“ability”,所以这里缺的是谓语动词,第三人称单数只能用comes。
as...as即“像······一样”,是固定搭配短语。本句意思是“一些国家拥有和美国一样丰富的自然资源”。因此只有D项是正确的。
for...reason是固定搭配短语,意思是“由于······原因”。本句意思是“由于多年的内外战争和这样那样的原因不能开发它的资源”。因此选项B是正确的。
根据上下文我们知道这里说的是某些国家无法开采自己的资源。uneasy 意为“不稳定的、不舒服的”。incapable意为“无能力的”,固定搭配是be incapable of doing , im-possible意为“不可能的”。unable意为“不能的”,固定搭配是be unable to do。因为后面有不定式to,因此只能选择D项。
本句意思是“完善的、稳定的政府以及从外国入侵中解放出来······”。先排除掉prevention。 freedom意为“自由”。 liberation意为“解放”,一般与介词from搭配。liberty“自由、释放”,常与介词of搭配。选项C是正确的。
本句意思是“一个国家的生活水平不仅仅依赖本国生产和消费的财富”。表示“边界内”,我们常用短语within the border,其他几个介词都不合适。
这里需要一个能连接上下文的短语,前一句讲的是国际贸易也是生活水平依赖的一部分,后面以英国为例进行说明因此只有选项D合适。in short意为“总之”; as a result意为“结果是”; on the other hand意为“另一方面”。
此空后面是一个过去分词短语,前面是介词on,因此这里先排除which和 what,因为不需要引导句子的关联词。此外,这里需要指代的是前面的foodstuffs和agricultural products,因此只能选择表示复数的those。
otherwise意思是“相反地”。 certainly意为“当然地”。 however意为“然而”。 therefore意为“因此”。此处是拿缺少的东西同前面提到的生产出的多余的东西对比,因此只有otherwise最合适。
provided that…是固定搭配,意思是“假若······”。本句意思是“如果其他国家可以接受本国的产品······”。因此只有D项最合适。
