Onemorepiecewasaddedandthewalletsplit。17.B。錢包已經(jīng)裝滿了，而且是一個(gè)舊錢包，繼續(xù)裝可能會(huì)裂開。所以選burst“破裂”。最后一句話中的“split”為同義詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。18.D。貪婪的乞丐認(rèn)為錢包還能多裝一點(diǎn)。hold“保存”符合語境。19.C。treasure(財(cái)寶)這里代指金幣。錢包破裂后金幣自然會(huì)掉到地上。present禮物，food食物，metal金屬，均不符合句意。20.A。句意：衣衫襤褸的乞丐除了破裂的錢包一無所有。nothing什么也沒有。三、閱讀理解1.A。由第一段第三句“Inthiswaytheylearnwhatisgoingonintheworld。”可知人們讀報(bào)的目的是為了了解所發(fā)生的事情。2.C。根據(jù)前半句“...theymaybeinsuchahurrythattheyhavetime...”的暗示可猜測(cè)出glance意為“瀏覽”。3.D。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，人們通過看標(biāo)題可以大體了解文章所包含的內(nèi)容。4.C。由第二段第一句“Mostpapershaveseveraleditions,especiallyonSundayswhentheeditionsarelargerthanusual”可知周日版一般比平時(shí)的內(nèi)容要多些。5.B。由第一段最后一句中的“Europedidn’thavearegularlypublishednewspaperuntil1609,”可知，歐洲直到1609年才擁有了第一份定額發(fā)行的報(bào)紙，這份報(bào)紙創(chuàng)辦于德國。6.D。本題易誤選為C項(xiàng)。文章的最后一段告訴讀者英文報(bào)紙作為一個(gè)整體有著最大的發(fā)行量，但對(duì)于一份報(bào)紙來說，發(fā)行量最大的應(yīng)屬于日本的一家報(bào)紙。從而也暗示讀者，世界上有各種各樣的報(bào)紙。7.A。本文主要告訴讀者有關(guān)報(bào)紙的歷史，它并不僅僅告訴了我們有關(guān)日?qǐng)?bào)的歷史，因此B項(xiàng)不妥當(dāng)；而C項(xiàng)只說出了報(bào)紙的開始；D項(xiàng)則是說有關(guān)讀報(bào)的情況，從而排除C、D兩項(xiàng)。四、書面表達(dá)Possibleversions: Withthedevelopmentofinformationtechnology,moreandmorepeoplewatchTVorgetonlinetogettheinformationtheyneedinsteadofr
