【2018年四川银行秋招每日一练(11.15)——题目】
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Energy independence.It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? If you think so, you're not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American presidents for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.
“Energy independence” and its rhetorical(修辞的) companion “energy security', are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely thought through.What is it we want independence from, exactly?
Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil.But there are reasons that we buy all that off from elsewhere.
The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running.Yes, there is a trickle (涓涓细流)of biofuel (生物燃料) available, and more may become available, but most biofueis cause economic waste and environmental destruction.
Second, Americans have basically decided that they don't really want to produce all their Own oil.They value the environmental quality they preserve, over their off imports from abroad.Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to off exploration and production in the name of environmental protection.To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?
Third, there are benefits to trade.It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit.And although you don't read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of off products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.
There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy.When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices.At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.

A.It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.

4. What does the author say about oil trade?( )

【2018年四川银行秋招每日一练(11.15)——答案】
1. A【解析】本题问作者对美国能源独立的看法.文章前两句就用反问句提出能源独立听起来不错.关键句It has a nice ring to it中的rin9指”某种感觉”,A”听上去很有吸引力”正好对应,故选A。
2. D【解析】本题询问作者对biofuels”生物燃料”的看法.第4段第2句后半部分提到大部分的生物燃料会造成经济浪费(economic waste)和破坏环境(environmental destruction),D项中的serious damage与原文中的destruction同义,故确定D为本题答案。
3. C【解析】本题四个选项均与美国自身储备的原油有关,而本文自第4段起,都有在解释美国需要依赖石油进口的原因,其中第5段提到了美国自身储备的原油.该段前两句提及”美国人已缉基本确定,他们真的不想自己生产石油.他们认为维持环境质量比石油进口更重要.”下文则讲述了美国为保护环境,限制石油开采,由此可知.美国不愿开采本国的石油,是为了保护环境,故C”美国想保持自身环境的完好无损”为答案。
4. B【解析】本题问作者对石油贸易的看法.原文倒数第2段分析美国依赖石油进口的第三个原因,即有利于贸易.其中第2句提到,”它(石油贸易)能带来经济效率,使美国获益”,B中的economic efficiency复现了原词,指出石油贸易能带来”经济效率”,与文意相符,故选B。
5. A【解析】本题询问作者的写作意图.文章开头提及”能源独立”是美国一直以来的梦想,然而实际情况是很难从石油进口中独立出来,接着在第4段到第6段中分析了美国依赖石油口的原因.A”证明美国依赖石油进口是合理的”符合全文大意,故选A。
