1、Financial regulators in Britain have imposed a rather unusual rule on the bosses of big banks. Starting next year, any guaranteed bonus of top executives could be delayed 10 years if their banks are under investigation for wrongdoing. The main purpose of this "clawback" rule is to hold bankers accountable for harmful risk-taking and to restore public trust in financial institution. Yet officials also hope for a much larger benefit: more long term decision-making not only by banks but by all corporations, to build a stronger economy for future generations.（節(jié)選自2019年考研英語(yǔ)一Text 1）
【題目】
According to Paragraph 1, one motive in imposing the new rule is the___.
[A]. enhance bankers' sense of responsibility
[B]. help corporations achieve larger profits
[C]. build a new system of financial regulation
[D]. guarantee the bonuses of top executives
【解析】根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞“paragraph 1”和“one motive in imposing the new rule”回文定位在*一段第三句“The main purpose of this ‘clawback' rule is to hold bankers accountable for harmful risk-taking and to restore public trust in financial institutions.”（這個(gè)規(guī)則主要目的是讓銀行家為不良風(fēng)險(xiǎn)負(fù)責(zé)以及修復(fù)公眾對(duì)金融機(jī)構(gòu)的信任），對(duì)比所給四個(gè)選項(xiàng)，只有[A]項(xiàng) enhance banks' sense of responsibility（增加銀行的責(zé)任感）與原文表述一致，故為正確答案。
2、"Short-termism"or the desire for quick profits, has worsened in publicly traded companies, says the Bank of England's top economist. Andrew Haldane. He quotes a giant of classical economics, Alfred Marshall, in describing this financial impatience as acting like "Children who pick the plums out of their pudding to eat them at once"rather than putting them aside to be eaten last.（節(jié)選自2019年考研英語(yǔ)一Text 1）
【題目】
Alfred Marshall is quoted to indicate___.
[A]. the conditions for generating quick profits
[B]. governments' impatience in decision-making
[C]. the solid structure of publicly traded companies
[D]."short-termism"in economic activities
【解析】引用例子，是為了論證論點(diǎn)，所以解題關(guān)鍵在于找到論點(diǎn)。根據(jù)題干中的
“Alfred Marshall”定位在第二段最后一句“Alfred Marshall，in describing this financial impatience as acting like..…”（Alfred Marshall描述這種財(cái)政上急功近利的行為就像.…），其中this financial impatience根據(jù)代詞指代原則，回上文找指代對(duì)象，發(fā)現(xiàn)指代第二段開頭的“short-termism”，financial對(duì)應(yīng)選項(xiàng)中的economic，acting對(duì)應(yīng)activities，故[D]項(xiàng)為正確答案。
