分析 本文敘述了隨著物價和房價的上漲,在美國"自己動手"(DIY)的趨勢也在繼續(xù)增長."文中羅斯夫婦交了280美元參加了一個為期兩周的夜校學習.現(xiàn)在他們不光自己制作了全部的家具,還親自動手進行家中所有的維修工作.如果你想成為一個"自己動手的人",你可以參加一些DIY課程.對于那些沒有時間聽課的人來說,還有一些書會告訴你如何自己動手.

解答 33.C.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)John got married six months ago,and like many young people these days,they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high.因為生活費用高他們很難支付他們所需的東西,故選C.
34.D.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)Last month,he received a car repair bill for $420."I was deeply upset about it.可知,當他不得不自己養(yǎng)育孩子時,吉姆•哈特菲爾德決定成為一名自己動手者.故選D.
35.B.主旨大意題.因為整篇短文主要敘述的是要自己動手做一些力所能及的事情以減少自己的生活開支,故選B.

點評 本文是一篇日常生活類閱讀,題目涉及多道細節(jié)理解題,主旨大意題.做題時學生應仔細閱讀原文,把握文章主要內(nèi)容,聯(lián)系文章上下文內(nèi)容并結合所給選項含義,從中選出正確答案,一定要做到有理有據(jù),切忌胡亂猜測.

1.When first entered,Vanak Restaurant does not look like much of a restaurant,but once the pleasant smells of kabob (烤肉串)hit the senses,you are incapable of calling it anything less.
    Owned by a local couple,this Persian restaurant has an inviting,homelike atmosphere that many restaurants lack.
    The space is small with only a few dining tables and nearly no decoration,but the environment is truly charming.
    Lying in a hardly noticeable street corner,the restaurant still attracts all customers,especially those experienced in the delights of Middle Eastern cooking.
    A common sight is that of old Persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics,watching news events on TV,drinking a black tea known as Persian chai,and reading local Persian newspapers all the while trying to finish off their plates piled with food.
    The variety of food at the restaurant is limited,but the amount of each dish is fairly large.Most of the meals can serve two people and are under $10,so not only is it affordable but practical as well.
    The food,especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy,made with limited fat and oil and served straight off the grill (烤肉架).
    The main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs,which are different style of grilled meat.
    One delicious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob,which is made of grilled chicken pieces served with either rice or bread.Another great kabob is the Cbelo Kabob,kabob consisting of grilled beef.
    Although the restaurant is small,the atmosphere is nice and the food is delicious.It is a place that should not be overlooked.

36.When first entering the restaurant,one can find that itB.
