选自

《卫
报》上一篇名为
Is the writing on the wall for all European royals?
(所有欧洲皇室
注定 要失败吗?)
的文章。
主要讨论了西班牙胡安·
卡洛斯国王退位这一事件对欧洲诸多皇
室的影响,
尤其是对英国皇室的影响。总体来说,
作为今年阅读题型的第一篇,文章在 内容
上难度稍大,
尤其是里面涉及到了一些人名、
地名的专有名词以及非常地道的英式 习语表达
等等。但是,如果纯就题目来说的话,难度倒不是很大,答案的出处也比较容易找到。接下来就文章具体的题目来进行深入的解析。

、
According to the first two paragraphs, King Juan Carl of Spain
[A] used to enjoy high public support
[B] was unpopular among European royals
[C] ended his reign in embarrassment
[D] cased his relationship with his rivals
答案:
[C] ended his reign in embarrassment
解析:题目中明确提到答案的范围是在前面两段,而关键词又是
King Juan Carl of
Spain
,
那么根据关键词可以主要定位到第一段。
在第一段中,< br>对于
King
Juan
Carl
of
Spain
这个人的主要描述就是
King
Juan
Carlos
of
Spain
once
insisted
kings
don
’
t
abdicate,
they
die
in
their
sleep.
But
embarrassing
scandals and
the
popularity
of
the
republican left in the recent Euro-elections have forced him to eat his words and
stand down.
根据题目所给的四个选项,可以发现
C
项
ended his reign in embarrassment
(在窘
迫中结束了他的统治)正好讲的就是第二句话的内容 :
But
embarrassing
scandals
and
the
popularity of the republican left in the recent Euro-elections have forced him to
eat his words and stand down.
(但是令人窘迫的丑闻以及在 最近欧洲选举中所呈现的共
和制的盛行都迫使他食言而退位。)
至于其余三个选项:
[A] used to enjoy high public support
(过去受到民众的高度
支持)、
[B]
was
unpopular
among
European
royals
(在欧洲皇室中不受欢迎)、
[D]
cased
his relationship with his rivals
(缓和了与对手的关系)在文章中都不曾提到。

、
Monarchs are kept as head of state in Europe mostly
[A] owing to their undoubted and respectable status
[B] to achieve a balance between tradition and reality
[C] to give voters more public figures to look up to
[D] due to their everlasting political embodiment
答案:
[A] owing to their undoubted and respectable status
解析:从几个选项来看,题目问“在欧 洲君主被保持为国家首脑”的原因或目的。根据
阅读题型的命题规律,一般来说该题的答案定位应该是在 接下来的第三段。而根据关键词
head of state
有又可进一度确定为第三段。第三段中,第一句讲
It is this apparent
transcendence
of
politics
that
explains
monarchs
continuing
popularity
as
heads
of
states.
(正是这种显然的政治优越性才能解释君主为什么能持续广泛地担任国家首脑。)
这种优越性指 的就是上面的
monarchs can rise above
“
mere
”
politics and
“
embody
”
a
spirit
of
national
unity
(君主能超越单纯的政治而成为国家统一的精神代表)。由此,
