Not everyone has the chance to be a detective(侦探). But I ever got one when I was thirteen years old. It happened in 1988.

One afternoon, I was walking down the street when I saw my father's new car. I 1   to see my father, but to my 2  , I saw a young woman driving instead. "She stole my father's car," I thought. So I quickly stopped a taxi and got in. I said to the driver, "Follow that new car 3  ." And I told him why.

The taxi driver had a car telephone, and I asked him to call the police. Soon we heard the 4   of a police car and its loudspeaker. The policeman told the woman to stop her car. Our car came to a stop, too. I 5   right now and said to the woman, "It's not your car. It's my 6  ."

The woman smiled and said, "Oh. You're Mr. Johnson's younger son, right? I've ever seen your photo at your father's office."

Before I could say 7   word, the woman explained that she was my father's new assistant. My father had asked her to take his computer to the shop to have it 8  . He lent her his car. After hearing her words, we called my father and he told us what she said was 9. The police and the taxi driver laughed. I 10   very sorry.

A woman repeated a bit of gossip(流言) about a neighbour. Within a few days the whole neighbourhood knew the story. The neighbour was deeply hurt. Later the woman responsible(负责) for spreading the gossip learned that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old man to find out what she could do to repair the harm.

“Go to the marketplace,” he said, “and buy a chicken, and have it killed, then on your way home, pluck(拔) its feathers and drop them one by one along the road.” Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told.

The next day the wise man said, “Now, go and collect all those feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me.”

The woman followed the same road, but she was so discouraged when she found the wind had blown all the feathers away. After searching for hours, she returned with only three in her hand.

“You see,” said the old man, “it's easy to drop them, but it's impossible to get them back. So it is with gossip. It doesn't take much to spread a gossip, but once you do, you can never completely undo the wrong.”

第17讲 两次工业革命和世界市场的最终形成

课下达标练

(时间：45分钟　满分：85分)

一、选择题(本大题共12题，每小题4分，共48分)

1．16世纪到18世纪中期，英国逐渐形成一种现象，工人工资水平高得惊人，而煤炭的价格却极为便宜。于是，各行各业都绞尽脑汁来开发尽可能多投入资本，多消耗煤炭，少雇用工人的新技术。这一现象反映了英国(　　)

A．行业垄断的初始形成

B．近代化启动对煤炭的依赖

C．劳资矛盾的日渐尖锐

D．动力革命启动的独特条件

解析：选D。材料中16世纪到18世纪中期英国逐渐形成了工人工资高得惊人、煤炭价格却极为便宜的现象，于是各行各业想方设法投资开发出多消耗煤炭、少雇佣工人的新技术，此后以煤炭为能源，以机器代替工人劳动的蒸汽机的发明应运而生，可见动力革命的启动有其独特的条件，故D项正确；A、C两项在材料中无体现，应排除；材料并未反映近代化的启动，故B项错误。

2．珍妮纺纱机的发明者哈格里夫斯原是织工，骡机的发明者克伦普顿是个纺纱工兼织工，生产熟铁的搅拌法是工厂主科特和他的工头彼得·奥尼恩斯发明的。这反映出工业革命初期(　　)

A．科学和技术尚未真正结合

B．技术发明依赖于科学的新发现

C．手工工场主垄断了新技术

D．新技术传播进程缓慢而不平衡

解析：选A。据材料“织工”“纺纱工兼织工”“工厂主科特和他的工头”等信息，可知第一次工业革命的发明者大都是技术娴熟的工人，反映了科学和技术尚未真正结合，故A项正确；据材料“织工”“纺纱工兼织工”“工厂主科特和他的工头”等信息，可知第一次工业革命反映了科学和技术并没有太直接的联系，故B项错误；C项与材料“珍妮纺纱机的发明者哈格里夫斯原是织工”等信息不符，故C项错误；材料与新技术传播进程无关，故D项错误。

3．1660年代至1760年代，英国东部地区发生了农业技术革命。其中一项新技术叫做“四区轮作制”，即分别在农场的四块土地上种植芜菁、小麦、萝卜、大麦，四年里轮流更换，不让任何地块休闲，同时又能保持地力。这一革命(　　)

A．推动英国工业化和城市化进程

B．促成英国实现粮食自给

C．导致英国东西部经济差距扩大

D．揭开英国圈地运动序幕

解析：选A。材料中反映的是英国工业革命前的农业技术革命，这一做法提高了土地利用率，为英国的工业化奠定了基础，故A项正确；材料并未说明英国的粮食自给，故B项错误；材料仅仅说明东部进行农业技术革命并不是东西部经济发展的比较，故C项错误；英国的圈地运动是“羊吃人”的运动，它为工业革命的发展提供了大量的自由劳动力，与题目中农业生产技术革命无关，故D项错误。

4．英国人大卫·兰德斯曾说：“工厂是一种新的监狱，而时钟则成为新的狱卒。”对作者观点理解最准确的是(　　)

A．工厂成了犯罪频发的地方

B．工厂模仿监狱的管理手段

C．批判垄断组织对个人的剥削

D．机器生产异化了工人生活

解析：选D。A项与材料“工厂是一种新的监狱”意思不符，故A项错误；材料“工厂是一种新的监狱，而时钟则成为新的狱卒”主要体现工厂对工人的剥削与压迫，而不是模仿监狱的管理手段，故B项错误；材料“工厂是一种新的监狱”还不能说明已出现垄断组织，故C项错误；据材料“监狱”“狱卒”可知，工厂制度下，机器生产异化了工人生活，故D项正确。

5．“资本主义与工业生产相当于一体的两面。这一全新的现代经济形态，由西欧推广，经过两个世纪，今日已席卷全世界，无人能由其中脱身。”这一经济形态(　　)

A．开始于19世纪晚期的欧美各国

B．使世界各国走上了资本主义道路

C．使人类由分散发展走向统一整体

D．使人类历史进入到工业文明阶段

解析：选D。材料反映的是工业化生产，开始于19世纪的英国，故A项错误；B项说法太绝对，不符合史实，故B项错误；人类由分散走向整体是新航路的开辟，故C项错误；根据材料中“这一全新的现代经济形态，由西欧推广，经过两个世纪，今日已席卷全世界，无人能由其中脱身”指的是资本主义发展推动人类社会进入工业文明时期，故D项正确。

6．某一历史时期“西欧国家在生产活动中的动力来源率先实现了从动植物向矿物的转变”，据此，与这一时期相符的生产组织形式是(　　)

A．家庭作坊　　　　　　　 B．手工工场

C．工厂制度 D．垄断组织

解析：选C。抓住“西欧国家在生产活动中的动力来源率先实现了从动植物向矿物的转变”，可知英国率先开始工业革命，进入“蒸汽时代”。 家庭作坊主要动力是在动植物方面，故A项错误；手工工场没有体现这一转变，故B项错误；工厂制度出现于第一次工业革命，故C项正确；垄断组织出现于第二次工业革命，故D项错误。

7．斯皮瓦格尔在《西方文明简史》中指出：“19世纪末的经济发展，再加上海洋运输和铁路上的交通革命，培植出一种真正的世界经济。……欧洲资本同样也投向了海外，以建设铁路、矿山、电厂和银行。当然，国外市场也为欧洲剩余的制成品提供了市场。”下列对该材料理解准确的是(　　)

A．工业革命是世界市场发展的根本动力

B．世界市场加快了资本原始积累的进程

C．资本主义国家开始到海外抢占市场

D．世界在走向整体化中人类生活得到改善

解析：选A。根据材料中“19世纪末的经济发展，再加上海洋运输和铁路上的交通革命，培植出一种真正的世界经济”所强调是19世纪末经济的发展，其经济发展所体现的是因为工业革命的推动，故A项正确；19世纪末，欧洲早已经完成了资本的原始积累，故B项错误；资本主义国家在海外强占市场是伴随新航路开辟开始的，故C项错误；材料所强调的是世界市场的形成以及西欧的崛起，至于人民生活的改善并未体现，故D项错误。
