[结构简析]并列句
[参考译文]走私者在许多方面就像一个国际商人,而他的营业额确为许多国际公司增光。
写作方法与文章大意
这是一篇介绍走私集团的文章,采用对比写法——正常(合法)的商业和走私(非法)集团的对比。
第一段第一句就点明宗旨:
走私者在许多方面就像一个国际商人,而他的营业额确为许多国际公司增光。
不仅如此,有的也经营合法商业,如旅游,进出口公司等,这些往往是非法走私组织的前哨阵地。
第二段介绍了走私辛迪加的经营情况非常类似其他商业。
老板就是真正的(执行)董事长。
他制定计划,签定国际合同,确定走私路线和方法但不参与具体执行行动。
有一批经理助他管理各个专业部门,如财政,旅行,贿赂海关或航空公司官员等,还有当地接应走私货品的负责人。
第三段叙述了合法和非法贸易另一个相似点——价格波动,价格随市场供需和商品质量而有所差异。
答案祥解
1. B.合法商业和走私的相似性。
是这篇文章的中心思想。
它是通过对比方法说明这种相似性。
并不是两者对比得出结论。
所以
A.合法商业和非法商业比较。
不对。
C.走私者可以从两种活动中谋取利润 和 D.走私集团中的老板是董事长,只是对比中提到个别具体事实。
不是中心思想。
2. A.货物质量和市场情况不好。
第三段第二句“正如合法商业按质论价和按市场供需价一样,走私商品也是按这两者调节价格的上升和下降。
”所以当质量和市场情况不好价格就跌。
B.货物质量和市场变化。
这并不一定跌价,也可能上升。
C.供需不平衡。
并没有说明供大于求,和跌价无关。
D.其它商品价波动。
这不一定下跌。
所以B,C,D都不对。
3. D.可能会卖其他货品。
题目是推断,(infer)。
从第一段最后一句“世界上最大走私黄金商之买卖,可推断出走私商照样可以经营其他商品。
至于
A.制定计划,签定合同。
B.走私商是真正的老板。
C.以不同的方式赚钱,都是文章中直抒,不是推断出来的结论。
4. C.以合法商业掩护他们走私是走私商经常采用,也是最佳的方法之一。
A.多国公司。
B.只从事非法商贸,这并不是最佳方法。
D.从两方面赚钱,并不是方法,而是有了掩护所后,多一份收入而已。
