Cheques have largely replaced money as a mean s of exchange, for they are widely accepted everywhere . Though this is very 1 for both buyer and seller, it should not be forgotten that cheuqes are not real money: they are quite 2 in themselves. A shop-keeper always runs a certain 3 when he accepts a cheque and he is quite 4 his rights if, 5 ,he refuses to do so.
People do not always know this and are shocked if their good faith is called 6 . An old and very wealth friend of mine told me he had an extremely unpleasant 7 . He went to a famous jewellery shop which keeps a large 8 of precious stones and asked to be shown some pearl necklaces. After examining several trays, he 9 to buy a particularly fine string of pearls and asked if he could pay 10 cheque. The assistant said that this was quite 11 , but the moment my friend signed his name, he was invited into the manager’s office.
The manager was very polite, but he explained that someone with 12 the same name had presented them with a 13 cheque not long age. He told my friend that the police would arrive 14 any moment and he had better stay 15 he wanted to get into serious trouble. 16 , the police arrived soon afterwards They apologized to my friend for the 17 and asked him to 18 a note which had been used by the thief in a number of shop .The note 19 :“I have a gun in my pocket.

1. 【答案】D. convenient
【解析】本题测试逻辑型词义搭配.从逻辑意思上看,此处是讲“支票对买者和卖者均很方便”。故正确答案为 D. convenient. complicated 复杂的;trivial 琐碎的,无足轻重的;bearable可忍受的。
2. 【答案】A. valueless
【解析】本题测试词义搭配.valueless 无价值的。从上下文来看,支票不是真正的钱,因为支票本身是无价值的。invaluable 无法估价的,非常宝贵的。
3. 【答案】C. risk
【解析】本题测试词惯用搭配. run a risk 是习语,意为“冒风险”,例如:You are running a risk in trusting him. (你相信他是一种冒险的行为。)
4. 【答案】A. within
【解析】本题测试惯用搭配.within one’s right 有权…,在某人的权限内:You would be quite within your right to refuse to work on Sunday.
5. 【答案】C. on occasion
【解析】本题测试词义型逻辑搭配.in general 一般来说;at the least 至少;on occasion 偶尔;in short 总之。从上下文意思来看,应选C. on occasion
本句译文:当店主接受支票时,他总是要冒一点的风险的。因此,如果他偶尔拒绝受支票,它也是完全有权这样做的。
6. 【答案】D. in question
【解析】本题测试惯用搭配. call sth. in question (=raise doubts about sth.) 对…表示怀疑: His honesty was called in question. (他的诚实受到怀疑。) 不能选 in doubt,因为没有call sth. in doubt 这个习语。in earnest 认真的。
7. 【答案】B. experience
【解析】本题测试词义搭配. have an extremely unpleasant experience 意为“ 有一次非常不愉快的经历”。accident 事故;event 重大事件;incident 事件,事变,附带的事: border incident (边界事件)。相比之下,experience 是最佳选择。
