jī)比較原始的工作原理,上下文語意連貫。故選C項(xiàng)。18.下文“Thebanks’principlewasseeminglycustomerservice.Butitwouldbefoolishtominimizethemanyadvantagesthatcashmachinesprovidedtothebanksthemselves.Bythelate1970s,thehighestfixedcostfortheaveragelargebankwasitsbranches.Thegreatestvariablecostandlosstoprofitswereitsstaff.Bankaccountsswiftlyrecognizedthatselfserviceoperationscouldreducebankbranchstaffcostby70percent.(銀行的原則似乎是客戶服務(wù)。但是,低估自動取款機(jī)給銀行自身帶來的諸多好處是愚蠢的。到20世紀(jì)70年代末,大型銀行的平均固定成本最高的是其分支機(jī)構(gòu)。最大的可變成本和利潤損失是它的員工。銀行賬戶很快意識到,自助服務(wù)可以將銀行分行的員工成本降低70%)”說明了自動取款機(jī)給銀行帶來的諸多好處,解釋了G項(xiàng)“Soonafterwards,manyotherbanksbecameadmittedlychampionsofthecashmachine.(不久之后,許多其他銀行成為公認(rèn)的自動提款機(jī)的擁護(hù)者)”中描述的這一現(xiàn)象,許多銀行為了獲益開始使用自動提款機(jī),上下文語意連貫。故選G項(xiàng)。19.下文“Formaximumefficiency,ATMshadtobelocatednearpublictransportorinashoppingmall,notatabranch.Thebusierandmorecrowdedthelocation,obviously,thebetter.(為了最大限度地提高效率,自動取款機(jī)必須設(shè)在公共交通附近或購物中心,而不是在分行。顯然,地點(diǎn)越繁忙、越擁擠越好)”指出自動取款機(jī)需要設(shè)在公共交通附近或購物中心,是對A項(xiàng)“Location,inparticular,wasakeyfactor.(尤其是地理位置,是一個關(guān)鍵因素)”的舉例說明,說明地理位置的重要作用。故選A項(xiàng)。20.上文“Now,roughly75percentofallcashprovidedbybankstotheircustomersesfromcashmachines.(現(xiàn)在,銀行提供給客戶的現(xiàn)金中,大約75%來自自動取款機(jī))”談及自動取款機(jī)的普及和廣泛使用,F(xiàn)項(xiàng)“Devicesoriginallydismissedbythepublicarenowrecognizedasessentialinstitutions.(最初被公眾忽視的設(shè)備現(xiàn)在被認(rèn)為是不可或缺的設(shè)施)”承接上文,總結(jié)自動取款機(jī)命運(yùn)的變化,上下文語意連貫。故選F項(xiàng)。第三部分語言運(yùn)用(共兩節(jié),滿分30分)第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題1分,滿分15分)閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。(2024·安徽合肥·三模)Itwasinthecoldmidwinter,andthehomelesscouplestruggledthroughthenightsnow,seekingshelter.Thefathertobe21theroadsideforsomeplacewherehisstruggling22mightrestsafelyforthenight.ThatDecembernight,GusKiebel,acountywildlifeofficer,wasdrivinghomefromworkwhenhe23thepairintheflashofhisheadlights.Heparkedhistruckand24theanimals.Gus25outhishandstothebeagles(比格犬),whichmadenoefforttoescape.Then,heplacedthedogsinhistruck.Gus26hisphone,tookapictureofthepairandsentittohiswife,KatieKiebelbeforecallingKatie.“Youcannotputthem27inthesnow,”shesaid.“Bringthemhome.”TheKiebelspreparedabedforthedogsontheirwarmhome,wherethe28animalslaytogether.However,alreadyhavingadog,theKiebelscouldn’t29tokeepnewones.Thenextday,Katietookthedogstotheshelter—ononecondition.“I’mnot30thedogsovertoyouifyou’regoingtoseparatethem,”shesaid.Theshelterworkerspromisedtokeepthecoupletogether.SoonafterChristmas,thebeagleswere31—asa32,toalovingfamily.It’sasimplestory,butitspeakstothe33ofournature.Andwhen34andlovetriumphovercrueltyandneglect,itcanfeellikethegreatest35ofall.21.A.looked
