everythingtakenintoconsideration是獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)在句中作狀語(yǔ)，故選B。二、新的題型17.AgehasitsprivilegesinAmerica,andoneofthemoreprominentofthemistheseniorcitizendiscount.Anyonewhohasreachedacertainage—insomecasesaslowas55—isautomaticallyentitledtodazzlingarrayofpricereductionsatnearlyeverylevelofcommerciallife.Eligibilityisdeterminednotbyone’sneedbutbythedateonone’sbirthcertificate.Practicallyunheardofagenerationago,thediscountshavebecomearoutinepartofmanybusinesses—ascommonascolor1televisionsinmotelroomsandfreecoffeeonairliners.Peoplewithgrayhairoftenaregiventhediscountswithoutevenaskingforthem;yet,millionsofAmericansaboveage60arehealthyandsolvent(有支付能力的).Businessesthatwouldneverdareofferdiscountstocollegestudentsoranyoneunder30freelyofferthemtoolderAmericans.Thepracticeisacceptablebecauseofthewidespreadbeliefthat“elderly”and“needy”aresynonymous(同義的).Perhapsthatoncewastrue,buttodayelderlyAmericansasagrouphavealowerpovertyratethantherestofthepopulation.Tobesure,thereiseconomicdiversitywithintheelderly,andmanyolderAmericansarepoor.Butmostofthemaren’t.Itisimpossibletodeterminetheimpactofthediscountsonindividualcompanies.Formanyfirms,theyareastimulustorevenue.Butinothercasesthediscountsaregivenattheexpense,directlyorindirectly,ofyoungerAmericans.Moreover,theyareadirectirritantinwhatsomepoliticiansandscholarsseeasacomingconflictbetweenthegenerations.GenerationaltensionsarebeingfueledbycontinuingdebateoverSocialSecuritybenefits,whichmostlyinvolveatransferofresourcesfromtheyoungtotheold.Employmentisanothersorepoint.Buoyed(支持)bylawsandcourtdecisions,moreandmoreolderAmericansaredecliningtheretirementdinnerinfavorofstayingonthejob—therebylesseningemploymentandpromotionopportunitiesforyoungerworkers.Farfromakindofcharitytheyoncewere,seniorcitizendiscountshavebecomeaformidableeconomicprivilegetoagroupwithmillionsofmemberswhodon’tneedthem.Itnolongermakessensetotreattheelderlyasasinglegroupwhoseeconomicneedsdeservepriorityoverthoseofothers.Seniorcitizendiscountsonlyenhancethemyththatolderpeoplecan’ttakecareofthemselvesandneedspecialtreatment;andtheythreatenthecreationofanewmyth,thattheelderlyareungratefulandtakingforthemselvesattheexpenseofchildrenandotheragegroups.SeniorcitizendiscountsaretheessenceoftheverythingolderAmericansarefightingagainst—discriminationbyage.OutlineDetailsIntroductionAgedetermineswhetheranAmericancanbegivenadiscount,whichisacommon(71)________________inAmericanbusinesslifetoday.Originofseniorcitizendiscount●Sincetheseniorcitizensareoftentreatedaspeoplewhoarein(72)_____________,theyaregivensuchpriority.

78.attend/erest(s)/benefit(s)80.discriminate.71.practice

根據(jù)第一段最后一句中thediscountshavebecomearoutinepartofmanybusinesses折扣已成為許多企業(yè)的常規(guī)組成部分，可知這是個(gè)慣例，故填practice。72.need/poverty

根據(jù)第二段中buttodayelderlyAmericansasagrouphavealowerpovertyratethantherestofthepopulation可知此處指貧窮的人，故填need/poverty。73.Present/Current

根據(jù)句意可知此處指“目前的狀況”，故填Present/Current。76.fewer根據(jù)第四段最后一句Buoyed(支持)bylawsandcourtdecisions,moreandmoreolderAmericansaredecliningtheretirementdinnerinfavorofstayingonthejob—therebylesseningemploymentandpromotionopportunitiesforyoungerworkers.可知這里指的是：更喜歡工作的人的數(shù)量增長(zhǎng)，這意味著年輕人工作的機(jī)會(huì)更少。故填fewer。77.economically根據(jù)第五段Farfromakindofcharitytheyoncewere,seniorcitizendiscountshavebecomeaformidableeconomicprivilegetoagroupwithmillionsofmemberswhodon’tneedthem.可知數(shù)以百萬(wàn)的老年人不需要經(jīng)濟(jì)上的優(yōu)先。副詞修飾動(dòng)詞，故此處填economically。78.attend/tend根據(jù)最后一段中Seniorcitizendiscountsonlyenhancethemyththatolderpeoplecan’ttakecareofthemselvesandneedspecialtreatment;可知這誤導(dǎo)他們認(rèn)為他們不能照顧他們自己。根據(jù)句意可知此處填attend/erest(s)/benefit(s)

根據(jù)最后一段最后一句theythreatenthecreationofanewmyth,thattheelderlyareungratefulandtakingforthemselvesattheexpenseofchildrenandotheragegroups.老人不感恩，以犧牲孩子為代價(jià)?？芍麄兪遣桓卸鞯?，他們傷害了其他年齡組的利益。故填interest(s)/benefit(s)。80.discriminate

根據(jù)最后一段最后一句SeniorcitizendiscountsaretheessenceoftheverythingolderAmericansarefightingagainst—discriminationbyage.老年人折扣的本質(zhì)正是美國(guó)老人所反對(duì)的，即年齡歧視。可知此空填discriminate?！酒路治觥课恼碌?段介紹了美國(guó)社會(huì)老年人享有商品折扣的現(xiàn)象。第2段提出了很多老年人擁有償付能力，因此這種做法并不合理。第3段和第4段論述了這一做法犧牲了青年人的利益，加劇了他們的沖突。第5段和第6段提到了這一做法的普遍性，作者呼吁改變這一種年齡歧視的做法。三、閱讀理解18.Foryears,scientistsandothersconcernedaboutclimatechangehavebeentalkingabouttheneedforcarboncaptureandstorage(CCS).Thatisthetermforremovingcarbondioxidefrom,say,acoal-burningpowerplant’ssmokestackandpumpingitdeepundergroundtokeepitoutoftheatmosphere,whereitwouldotherwisecontributetoglobalwarming.However,currently,onlyonepowerplantinCanadacapturesandstorescarbononacommercialscale(andithasbeenhavingproblems).Amongtheconcernsaboutstorageisthatcarbondioxideingaseousorliquidformthatispumpedundergroundmightescapebacktotheatmosphere.Sostoragesiteswouldhavetobemonitored,potentiallyfordecadesorcenturies.ButscientistsatLamont-DohertyEarthObservatoryatColumbiaUniversityandotherinstitutionshavecomeupwithadifferentwaytostoreCO2thatmighteliminatethatproblem.Theirapproachinvolvesdissolvingthegaswithwaterandpumpingtheresultingmixture—sodawater,essentially—downintocertainkindsofrocks,wheretheCO2reactswiththerocktoformamineralcalledcalcite(方解石).Byturningthegasintostone,scientistscanlockitawaypermanently.Volcanicrockscalledbasalts(玄武巖)areexcellentforthisprocess,becausetheyarerichincalcium,magnesiumandiron,whichreactwithCO2.TheprojectcalledCarbFixstartedinIceland,2012,whenthescientistspumpedabout250tonsofcarbondioxide,mixedwithwater,about1,500feetdownintoporousbasalt.Earlysignswereencouraging:Thescientistsfoundthatabout95percentofthecarbondioxidewaschangedintocalcite.Andevenmoreimportantly,theywrote,thechangehappenedlyquickly—inlessthantwoyears.“It’sbeyondallourexpectations,”saidEddaAradottir,whomanagestheproject.RapidchangeoftheCO2meansthataprojectwouldprobablyhavetobemonitoredforafarshortertimethanamoreconventionalstoragesite.Therearestillconcernsaboutwhetherthetechnologywillproveusefulinthefightagainstglobalwarming.Foronething,itwouldhavetobescaledupenormously.Foranother,alotofwaterisneeded—25tonsofitforeverytonofCO2—alongwiththerightkindofrock.ButtheresearcherssaythatthereisenoughporousbasalticrockinIceland,includingintheoceanfloorsandalongthemarginsofcontinents.Andsittingastorageprojectinorneartheoceancouldpotentiallysolvethewaterproblematthesametime,astheresearcherssayseawaterwouldworkjustfine.61.WhatcanwelearnaboutCCSinParagraphs2and3?A.ScientistsbelieveglobalwarmingwillbeavoidedifCO2ispumpedunderground.B.It’sbeenacommonpracticeinmanyplantstocaptureandstoreCO2underground.C.ThereisnoguaranteethatCO2willnotescapeevenifpumpedunderground.D.ItrequiresdecadestoturnCO2intoliquidformandbelockedunderground.62.WhatmaterialsshouldbeinvolvedintheprojectCarbFix?A.Water,CO2,sodawaterandbasalts B.Water,sodawater,apumpandcalciteC.CO2,basalts,apumpandcalcite D.Water,CO2,apumpandbasalts63.AccordingtoEddaAradottir,theresultoftheprojectwasbeyondtheresearchers’expectations,because
