A.when B.that
C.after D.since
32. 本题考查强调句型。句意：早在在哥伦布横跨大西洋前 80 年，郑和就已航行到了东非。我们把 It was 和 that 去掉后会发现句子成立 80 years before Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic Zheng He had sailed to East Africa，所以这应是强调句型，答案选 that。

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap (包装).
On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, "I promised you a gift, and here it is." What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!
One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying", which sounded ominous.
Christmas was coming, "don't expect any presents this year," Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. "If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough." I'd never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, "What? He's all right?" He hung up and shouted upstairs. "The hospital said we can bring Richard home!"
"Thank god!" I heard Mum cry.
From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!

In his 1930 essay “Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren “, John Keynes, acconmist, ewrote that human needs fall into two classes: absolute needs ,which are indupe what other have , and relative needs ,which make us feel superior to our fellows He thought alough relative needs may indeed be insatible (无止境的) this isnottrue ofabsolute
Keynes wans surely correct that only a small part of total spending id decided by the super iority He was gretly mistaken ,however ,in seeting this desive as the only source of demands
Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influnce the den almost all goods, including even basic goods like food. When a couple goes out for an anm dinner,for example,the thought of feeling superior to others probably never comes to them. The goal is to share a special meal that stands out from other meals.
There are no obvious limits to the escalation of demand for quality.For example ,porsche famous car producer,has a model which was considered perhaps the best sport car on the mark Priced at over $120,000,it handles perfectly well and has great speen acceleration.But in 200 the producer introduced some changes which made the model slightly better in handling acceleration.People who really care about cars find these small improvemenmts exciting.To them,however,they must pay almost four times the price.
By placing the desire to be superior to other at the heart of his description of nisation demands,Keynes actually reduced such demands.However,the desire for higher quality has natural limits.
72.According to the passage,John Keynes Believed that_______.
A.desire is the root of both absolute and relative needs
B.absolute needs come from our sense of superiority
C.relative needs alone lead to insatiable demands
D.absolute needs are stronger than relative needs
73.What do we know about the couble in Paragraph 3?
A.They want to show their superiority
B.They find specialty important to meals
C.Their demands for food are not easily satisfied.
D.Their choice of dinner is related to ideas of quality.
74.What does the underlined word “escalation”in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Understanding.
B.Increase
C.Difference
D.Study
75.The author of the passage that ______.
A. absolute needs have no limits
B. demands for quality are not insatiable
C. human desires influsnce ideas of quality
D. relative needs decide most of our spending
【语篇解读】一位著名的经济学家 John Keynes 曾把人类的需求分为两种：绝对需求和相对需求，同时他认为相对需求是无止境的。可是只把相对需求视为无止境是不准确的，人对于质量的需求也是无止境的。
72. 答案：C 解析：细节考查题。由第一段的最后一句中的 He thought that although relative needs may indeed be insatiable 可知之。
73. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句 their goal is to share a special meal that stands out from other meals 可推知。
74. 答案：B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段举的例子可知，人们对于高质量的需求是不断增长的。
75. 答案：A 解析：主旨大意题。作者认为不仅相对需求是无止境的，人对于质量的需求也是无止境的。
