D．importance【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了虽然星巴克的咖啡很棒，但星巴克的精髓不在于咖啡，而在于它的企业文化。1．A句意：对于星巴克来说，品牌有三个要素：咖啡、人和商店。people人(们)；managers经理；customers顾客；clients客户。上文说星巴克将打造品牌个性的理念作为企业文化的一部分，将意义嵌入产品中，从而吸引更多的顾客，由此可知，人是星巴克品牌文化的三个要素之一。故选A项。2．C句意：对咖啡豆的质量和加工过程进行严格的控制，确保了咖啡的最高品质。assured担保；promised承诺；ensured确保，保证；predicted预测。对咖啡豆的质量和加工过程进行严格的控制的目的自然是确保咖啡的最高品质。故选C项。3．D句意：在咖啡知识和客户服务方面雇用和培训了优秀的店员。emergency紧急情况；environment环境；employment就业；customer客户。根据常识可知，店员上岗前要进行客户服务方面的培训，customerservice表示“客户服务”。故选D项。4．C句意：店内的设计、氛围和浓郁的香气都为星巴克体验做出了贡献。consistedof由……组成；benefitedfrom从……中受益；contributedto有助于，为……做贡献；headedfor前往。根据常识可知，咖啡店的设计、氛围和浓郁的香气都为顾客的星巴克体验做出了贡献。故选C项。5．A句意：星巴克以“星巴克体验”为荣，其服务超出了咖啡，为顾客提供独特的体验。goingbeyond超出；comingacross遇到；makingup弥补；dependingon依靠。下文说星巴克为您提供的不仅仅是咖啡，由此可知，“星巴克体验”超出了咖啡，为顾客提供独特的体验。故选A项。6．C句意：与传统的咖啡店为您提供的服务相比，星巴克为您提供的不仅仅是咖啡。Withregardto至于；Inadditionto除……之外(还)；Comparedwith与……相比；Intermsof在……方面。空后提到了传统咖啡店的服务，因此是星巴克与传统咖啡店的对比。故选C项。7．B句意：这里有很棒的人，一流的音乐，舒适、积极的会议场所，以及在家里煮优质咖啡的合理建议。general一般的；reasonable合理的；legal合法的；fascinating迷人的。根据常识可知，星巴克自然会为顾客提供在家煮一杯好咖啡的合理建议。故选B项。8．A句意：这就是星巴克致力于为顾客创造的一种“第三空间”，在那里他们可以远离(喧嚣)、思考、阅读、聊天或倾听。committed承诺、投身；alerted警告；subjected臣服；required要求。becommittedto表示“致力于”。故选A项。9．D句意同上。negotiate谈判；perform执行；conceal隐藏；escape远离，避开。根据空后的“reflect,read,chatorlisten”可知，在星巴克创造的“第三空间”里，人们可以远离(喧嚣)，旨在突出星巴克创造的安静环境。故选D项。10．B句意：它是由特里·赫克勒设计的，他从木制的海洋雕像中得到灵感。imagination想象；inspiration灵感；patent专利权；philosophy哲理。上文说绿色星巴克标识是一个美人鱼，这个设计灵感是特里·赫克勒从木制的海洋雕像中获得的。故选B项。11．D句意：美人鱼标识还传达了原始和现代的含义……creates创造；cultivates培养；credits赞颂；D.conveys传达。根据常识可知，一个品牌的标识自然会传达某种含义。故选D项。12．D句意：星巴克将典型的美国文化逐渐分解为体验元素：视觉上的温暖，听觉上煮咖啡的声音，嗅觉上的咖啡香气等等。brand品牌；logo标识；possession财产；experience体验。根据冒号后的内容可知此处指“体验元素”。故选D项。13．B句意：试想，透过巨大的玻璃窗，望着拥挤的街道，轻轻地啜一口咖啡香，这正符合“雅痞”，在忙碌的生活中体验的感觉。greedily贪婪地；gently轻轻地；persistently固执地；indifferently冷淡地。根据常识可知，刚煮好的咖啡是非常热的，要一小口一小口轻轻地啜着喝。故选B项。14．A句意同上。busy忙碌的；easy简单的；miserable悲惨的；energetic精力充沛的。根据上文说的拥挤的街道可知，平时的生活节奏是很快的，因此此处指的是“忙碌的生活”。故选A项。15．C句意：但星巴克的精髓不在于咖啡，尽管它是很棒的咖啡。product产品；vision视力；essence精髓，精华；importance重要性。空后说咖啡只是一种载体，咖啡消费在很大程度上是一种情感和文化层面的消费，因此此处是说星巴克的精髓不在于咖啡，而在于它的文化。故选C项。Ⅲ．语法填空UKnursinghomesaregettingsomecolourfulnew1．________(guest).HenPowerisbringingthejoyofhenstomorethan60carehomesaroundtheUKtoaddsomeexcitementtotheirdailyactivities.Thehensgiveelderlypeopleachance2．________(explore)theircreativityandtospendsometimeoutdoorswiththechickenshavingfun,feedingthemandcollectingtheeggs.The3．________(organize)hasbeenespeciallyhelpfulinallowingelderlypeopletofeel4．________(need)throughcaringforothers,insteadofalways5．________(care)for.HenPoweralsohasplentyofsupportfromthecommunity,6．________allowsittocreaterealchangein7．________wayelderlypeopleseethemselves.OneelderlymansaidthatwhilehebelievedtheHenPowerconceptwasstrangeatthestart,hefinallydecidedtotryit,andnow8．________(feel)it’sthebestthingh
