(2) Over the years，shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to stores more and more every day，but its more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simple enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they dont need. Even though they dont have enough money，they buy everything they want.__(3) The question is，why do they have this addiction? There isnt a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad，worried，upset or lonely，and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems.

【答案解析】

76. 答案：drinking，taking drugs，shopping，playing computer games，working，

watching TV ( 答出其中三個即可，不根據(jù)原文回答者不給分)

解析：這是一道封閉式問題，考查考生對文段的理解能力和對語言的總結(jié)概括能力。

文章第一段闡述了當(dāng)今社會中存在的種種沉迷、上癮的現(xiàn)象。從文段中我們可以找出重要細(xì)節(jié)“... alcohol or drugs ... compulsive shoppers ... . impossible to pull ... from their work ... spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.”。其中的關(guān)鍵詞可以依次對應(yīng)： drinking，taking drugs，shopping，playing computer games，

working，watching。

77. 答案：The reason why some people /shopaholics have shopping addiction.

The possible reasons for shopaholism/shopping addition.

解析：這是一道段落主旨概括題，考查考生把握文段主題的能力和高度概括的能力。

確定主題句(Topic sentence)是獲取段落主旨大意的一個有效方法。第三段的第一句“The question is，why do they have this addiction?”的表達(dá)具有概括性，結(jié)構(gòu)簡潔明了，本段中其它句子都是以此句為中心層層鋪開的，它符合主題句的特點(diǎn)。所以本段的主旨是闡述購物成癮的原因。

78. 答案：cause/bring about/result in many problems

解析：這是一道補(bǔ)全句子題，考查考生語篇銜接和綜合歸納信息的能力。第四段位于本文最后，相對獨(dú)立地闡述購物成癮的危害。要補(bǔ)全的句子位于本段的首句，是本段的主題句。首句是一個由but連接的并列句，前后句呈轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。前半句Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction.說購物癖似乎無害，下半句應(yīng)與其意義相反，強(qiáng)調(diào)購物癖的危害。下文涉及購物癖者會遇到精神和財(cái)政方面的問題和麻煩，都是對其危害的闡述。另外，本段中“Some of them can be psychological”和“It can also cause financial problems.”對補(bǔ)全的句子的結(jié)構(gòu)進(jìn)行了暗示。

79. 答案：If this is the case，people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them to break this habit.

解析：這是一道釋義對照題，考查考生的綜合理解能力和對英語句子釋義的能力。

所給句子的意思是：因此，這些購物狂們應(yīng)該向某個援助團(tuán)體尋求幫助，以便能夠停止這種難以自制的購物行為。在本文的第四段第三句與題中給出的句子意義相符。其中，If this is the case 對應(yīng) Accordingly；people addicted to shopping對應(yīng)these shopaholics；a support group 對應(yīng) a certain organization for help；break this habit 對應(yīng) stop compulsive shopping。提取出關(guān)鍵實(shí)詞的信息對應(yīng)點(diǎn)是解答這道題的關(guān)鍵。

80. 答案：他們購物成癮，而且通常買的都是用不著的東西。

解析：這是一道句子翻譯題，考查考生對原文的理解以及翻譯能力。該句出現(xiàn)在文章的第二段后兩句，前面部分主要談?wù)撡徫锟竦男袨楸憩F(xiàn)，最后兩句概括出了購物癖的實(shí)質(zhì)。其中Be hooked on something與be addicted to something意義相似，是對某物上癮；and 引導(dǎo)并列句式結(jié)構(gòu)；that 引導(dǎo)定語從句修飾限定先行詞things。注意到了短語、并列句和從句這三點(diǎn)，句義就很明確了。另外，還應(yīng)注意：運(yùn)用倒置法處理好定語從句的句序；運(yùn)用省譯法刪減掉定語從句的主語；選擇好合適的漢語進(jìn)行表達(dá)。這樣才能把這個句子翻譯好?！?/p>
