1.Theauthormentionsthemechanicinthefirstparagraphtoshowthat_.
A.hehasasharpsenseofhearing
B.heisreadytohelpothers
C.heisjustoneofthetalentedpeople
D.heknowslittleaboutcarrepairing
答案:C
解析:文章第一段提到世界上有很多聪明、有天赋、受过教育和有才能的人,接着以汽车修理工为例,说明他能通过听发动机声音就知道车的问题并很快修好,这表明他是有才能的人之一,所以选C。A选项“他听力敏锐”不是作者提及他的主要目的;B选项“他乐于帮助他人”文中未体现;D选项“他对汽车修理了解很少”与原文不符。
2.Theunderlinedphrase“livewithintheirmeans”inParagraph3probablymeans_.
A.spendmorethantheycanafford
B.spendlessthantheycanafford
C.dointheirownway
D.liveintheirowncircle
答案:B
解析:根据后文“Theyworkandtheypaythebills.Insteadofbeingrich,theyfallintothetrapofbeingindebt.”可知,大多数工人努力工作支付账单,但没有变富有反而陷入债务陷阱,说明他们是量入为出地生活,即花费比他们能负担的少,所以选B。A选项“花费超过他们能负担的”与原文意思相反;C选项“按他们自己的方式做”和D选项“生活在他们自己的圈子里”不符合语境。
