参考答案
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。
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。

资料： The poverty line is the minimum income that people need for an acceptable standard of living. People with incomes below the poverty line are considered poor. Economists study the causes of poverty in order to find solutions to the problem.
As the general standard of living in the country rises, the poverty line does, too. Therefore, even with today’s relatively high standard of living, about 10 percent of the people in the United States are below the poverty line. However, if these people had stable jobs, they could have an acceptable standard of living. Economists suggest several reasons why poor people do not have jobs.
For one thing, more than half of the poor people in the United States are not qualified to work. Over 40 percent of the poor. People are children. By law, children less than 16 years old cannot work in many industries. A large number of poor people are Old. Many companies do not hire people over 65 years old, the normal retirement age.
Some poor adults do not look for jobs for a variety of personal reasons: they are sick, they do not have any motivation, they have family problems, or they do not believe that they can find a job.
Other poor people look for a job but cannot find one. Many poor adults never went to high school. Therefore, when they look for jobs, they have few skills that they can offer.
At the present time, the government thinks it can reduce poverty in the country in the following ways. First, if the national economy grows, businesses and industries hire more workers. Some of the poor who are qualified to look for jobs may find employment. Then they will no longer be below the poverty line. Second, if society invests in the poor, the poor will become more productive. If the government spends money on social programs, education, and training for poor people, the poor will have the skills to offer. Then it is more likely that they can find jobs.
Finally, if the government distributes society's income differently, it raises some poor people above the poverty line. The government collects taxes from the non－poor and gives money to the poor. These payments to the poor are called welfare. In 1975 over 18 million people in the United States received welfare.
Some economists are looking for better solutions to the poverty problem. However, at the present time, many people depend on welfare for a minimally acceptable standard of living.
For the time being, what is the last solution to guarantee the basic standard of living?A.The growing national economy
B.The tax collections from the non-poor classes
C.More choices of selectable job vacancies
D.Goverrnment’s investments on the poor to improve their working skills

In any country, the "standard ofliving" means the average person′s share of the goods and services whichthe country produces. Therefore, a country′s standard of living depends firstand foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in thissense is not money, but "goods" such as food and clothing, and"services" such as transport and entertainment.
The capacity to produce wealth depends uponmany factors, most of which have an effect on one another. To a great extent,wealth depends upon a country′s natural resources, such as coal, gold, andother minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are wellsupplied with coal and minerals, and some are not.
Next to natural resources comes the abilityto turn them to use. Some countries are perhaps well off in natural resources,but unable to develop their resources. They suffered for many years from civiland external wars. Peaceful political and stable conditions enable a country todevelop its natural resources effectively, and to produce more wealth thananother country equally well served by nature but less well ordered. Anotherimportant factor is the technical efficiency of a country′s people.Industrialized countries that have trained numerous skilled workers andtechnicians produce wealth more than countries whose workers are largelyunskilled.
A country′s standard of living does notonly depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its ownborders, but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade.
For instance, Britain′s wealth isfoodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had todepend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplusmanufacture goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products. In thisaspect, a country′s wealth is much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,provided that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.
The standard of living in a countryis determined by ______.A.its goods and services
B.the type of wealth produced
C.how well it can create wealth
D.what an ordinary person can share

"Wealth" in thissense is not money, but "goods" such as food and clothing, and"services" such as transport and entertainment.
The capacity to produce wealth depends uponmany factors, most of which have an effect on one another. To a great extent,wealth depends upon a country′s natural resources, such as coal, gold, andother minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are wellsupplied with coal and minerals, and some are not.
Next to natural resources comes the abilityto turn them to use. Some countries are perhaps well off in natural resources,but unable to develop their resources. They suffered for many years from civiland external wars. Peaceful political and stable conditions enable a country todevelop its natural resources effectively, and to produce more wealth thananother country equally well served by nature but less well ordered. Anotherimportant factor is the technical efficiency of a country′s people.Industrialized countries that have trained numerous skilled workers andtechnicians produce wealth more than countries whose workers are largelyunskilled.
A country′s standard of living does notonly depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its ownborders, but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade.
For instance, Britain′s wealth isfoodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had todepend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplusmanufacture goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products. In thisaspect, a country′s wealth is much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,provided that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.
The manufacturing capacity may be a keyfactor to a higher standard of living when one country ______A.has traded her manufacture
B.has established her wealth
C.has been an industrialized one
D.has produced surplus manufactured goods

Exports are either raw materials or manufactured goods. Raw materials are products of the land， such as
cotton， timber or rubber. Some raw materials， such as iron ore， come from mines. These raw materials are
often exported by the countries that produce them to other countries where they are made into manufactured
goods. Some countries produce food for export， for example， meat， sugar， or cereals such as wheat and
maize. These countries are agricultural countries. An agricultural country needs fertile land and a good climate.
A cold， dry climate is not suitable for agriculture.
A country which produces manufactured goods is known as an industrialized country. An industrialized country
cannot always produce enough food for its own needs. In this case， it does not export foodstuffs. Instead it
has to import them. It relies on exports of manufactured products and pays for imports with the money it earns
from the exported goods.
From the first sentence of the passage we can know that there are（）kinds of exports. A、twoB、threeC、four

问答题Practice 1 The catchphrase of the hour is that America is living beyond its means. The expression is used so much by politicians, economists and editorial writers that it is depreciating faster than the dollar. But there's no way around it. It tells the story. The Data Resources numbers show Americans increase their spending this year almost three times as fast as their after-tax income. What else can we explain it? What is more, as a nation, the U.S. has been doing the same thing throughout the 1990s. For years the country has been consuming more than it produces, making up the difference by borrowing abroad. It can't go on. The stock market's tumble, which has caused a loss of $1 trillion in paper wealth, is but the first step in a process that must sober the nation. At the same time, in the next few years the U. S. will have to throw its amazing dream machine into reverse and start paying its debts. Inevitably, this will mean a lowering in the U.S. standard of living as Americans are forced to produce more than they consume to service a soaring foreign debt. Per capital income may keep rising but more slowly than in the past. The trade account will go slowly towards balance or even surplus in the mid-1990s. But in the meantime, Americans will receive less for their exports because the dollar will fall considerably before U. S. exports are competitive. And pressures to reduce the federal deficit will tighten the lid on defense spending.
