50、om using the machine. 1.A.excludedB.includedC.combinedD.spent答案:B解析 本題考查詞義辨析。Included 意為“包括進(jìn)來(lái)”，文中意思是“只有合理的、必要的支出才應(yīng)當(dāng)包括進(jìn)來(lái)”。而excluded 意為“除外”；combined 意為“結(jié)合”均不合題意，spent 不能接expenditure 作賓語(yǔ)。2.A.accidentB.freightC.fineD.expenditure答案:C解析 本題考查詞義辨析。根據(jù)上文的traffic ticket 意為“罰單”，這里是交通罰金，而accident 意為“交通事故”；freigh

51、t 意為“運(yùn)費(fèi)，貨運(yùn)”；expenditure 意為“支出”均不符合題意。3.A.damagedB.destroyedC.splitD.hurt答案:A解析 本題考查詞義辨析。文中說(shuō)到“如果機(jī)器功能減退并”，從邏輯上可判斷，表示“表示功能減退并有損壞”，應(yīng)選damaged，意為“招致?lián)p害”，而destroyed 意為“消滅，摧毀”表示徹底摧毀，超出題目表達(dá)范疇；split 意為“裂開(kāi)，裂口”，太過(guò)具體，且不適于修飾機(jī)器；hurt 意為“損害，受傷”多指人受到傷害，均不符題意。4.A.decidedB.recognizedC.knownD.spent答案:B解析 本題考查固定搭配。be reco

52、gnized as 意為“視為”。known 可以與as 搭配，但意為“被認(rèn)為是”，多表示已存在的狀態(tài)，如：The Great Wall known as one of the seven wonders in the world在此之前，長(zhǎng)城的地位早已確立。其他兩項(xiàng)decided 和spent 均不可與as搭配。5.A.atB.inC.onD.to答案:D解析 本題考查固定搭配。此處需表達(dá)“不應(yīng)被加到機(jī)器的成本之上”之意。 to 與add 相連意為“加到上”，如：He added his name to the petition他在請(qǐng)?jiān)笗?shū)上簽了名。6.A.whichB.thatC.whenD

53、.what答案:C解析 本題考查語(yǔ)法。本句意為“當(dāng)用現(xiàn)金購(gòu)買(mǎi)資產(chǎn)時(shí)，成本很容易計(jì)算?！庇纱丝梢耘袛?，此處應(yīng)選時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句的連接詞when，而which，that，what 均為名詞性從句或定語(yǔ)從句的連接詞，不符合題意。7.A.superiorB.inferiorC.addedD.equal答案:D解析 本題考查詞義辨析。從文章“資產(chǎn)的成本等于購(gòu)置資產(chǎn)時(shí)所花的現(xiàn)金”判斷，應(yīng)選equal。因?yàn)閎e equal to 意為“與相等”，而其他三項(xiàng)superior：be superior to 意為“超過(guò)，多于”；inferior：be inferior to 意為“少于，不足”；added：be ad

54、ded to 意為“在基礎(chǔ)上添加”均不符合題意。8.A.takingB.addingC.minusD.plus答案:D解析 本題考查詞義辨析。文章在解釋構(gòu)成資產(chǎn)成本的等式，因此此處需要表示數(shù)學(xué)計(jì)算中相加的詞匯。plus意為“加上(prep)”。adding 意為“加，增加(v)”。If you add 5 and 5，you get 10而minus 意為“負(fù)的，減的”不合題意。9.A.costsB.feeC.cashD.charges答案:A解析 本題考查詞義辨析。從前文的expenditures 可以推斷此處需填表示支出的詞。costs 意為“支出，成本”，與題意相符，而fee 意為“費(fèi)用

55、”；cash 意為“現(xiàn)金”；charges意為“費(fèi)用”，均不合題意。10.A.purchasedB.keptC.offeredD.expended答案:A解析 本題考查詞義辨析。purchased 意為“購(gòu)買(mǎi)”，文中說(shuō)到“if an asset is purchased for cash”，此處表達(dá)用分期付款方式購(gòu)買(mǎi)，仍屬對(duì)上文用詞的強(qiáng)調(diào)。11.A.putB.recordedC.paidD.charged答案:B解析 本題考查詞義辨析。上文出現(xiàn)了recognize，與上文表達(dá)意思大致相同，意為“視為，被記錄在”，而put，paid，charged 無(wú)此類(lèi)搭配，所以不能選。12.A.concer

56、ningB.requiredC.relatingD.connected答案:C解析 本題考查固定搭配。這里需要分詞作后置定語(yǔ)，relating to 意為“和有關(guān)的”，符合題意。concerning 后面應(yīng)直接加賓語(yǔ)；connected 后面應(yīng)接with；repaired 與題意無(wú)關(guān)。13.A.isB.will beC.to beD.be答案:D解析 本題考查詞法。當(dāng)should 被提前時(shí)，后面應(yīng)接助動(dòng)詞be。14.A.notB.tooC.alsoD.but答案:A解析 本題考查語(yǔ)法。根據(jù)前句話(huà)判斷，這句表達(dá)了作者的疑問(wèn)，“為什么不把這些突發(fā)費(fèi)用歸入支出項(xiàng)?”。Why not 句型省略了主語(yǔ)和助動(dòng)詞。15.A.principalB.techniqueC.principleD.technology答案:C解析 本題考查詞義辨析。表達(dá)會(huì)計(jì)學(xué)的付帳原則應(yīng)選principle，而principal意為“負(fù)責(zé)人，首長(zhǎng)”；technique 意為“技術(shù)，技巧”；technology 意為“科技，技術(shù)”均不符合題意。16.A.owingB.owningC.opera
