這是一篇總結(jié)性的文章，講述了一個(gè)公司一年的業(yè)績(jī)狀況，形勢(shì)喜人。

19題，interests在這里的用法比較特殊，不是興趣，而是股權(quán)，權(quán)益的證明：

1)Something in which such a right, claim, or share is held:

權(quán)益、債權(quán)或股權(quán)的證明：

持有此種權(quán)益、債權(quán)或股權(quán)的人或集團(tuán)：

20題，很顯然意思是連續(xù)五年利潤(rùn)創(chuàng)記錄，in a row是固定短語(yǔ)，連續(xù)幾次的，連續(xù)不斷的;in a line是成一排。

21題，年稅前收益截至3月31日增長(zhǎng)了24%，達(dá)到了420萬(wàn)英鎊。the year ending March 31，表示以3月31日結(jié)束

22題，意思很明顯，銷(xiāo)售增長(zhǎng)了5%。climb有一種用法是指數(shù)量或水平的增長(zhǎng)(to increase in number, amount, or level)。例句：The temperature has climbed steadily since this morning.

23和24題，雖然整個(gè)行業(yè)的貿(mào)易狀況很困難，但是agricultural business創(chuàng)造了另一個(gè)創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的表現(xiàn)。

25題，garden equipment division 園林設(shè)備部。截至目前所做的解析，這個(gè)division已經(jīng)是第二次在完形填空里出現(xiàn)了。

26和27題，It is my belief that 我相信。我相信是因?yàn)楹煤脤?duì)待了客戶所以我們才會(huì)持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)。

28題，很高興報(bào)告客戶基數(shù)的持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)。從意思上看可以排除C，A和B都是比較正式的通知，選D，報(bào)告。

29題，customer base客戶基數(shù)，這也已經(jīng)是第二次考到了。

30題，典型的客套話，感謝客戶的支持。

31題，新增了58位新員工。take up占據(jù)，拿起，繼續(xù)，開(kāi)始從事等等;take back拿回，收回;take on一般做呈現(xiàn)講，有雇傭的意思(朗文：to start to employ someone)，例句：We're taking on 50 new staff this year.take over接管。

32題，付出了持續(xù)不斷的努力實(shí)現(xiàn)了這些結(jié)果。achieve是最地道的。

33題，只需要理解dividend的意思就行了，因?yàn)楹竺嬗衧hare(股份)，dividend是紅利。recompense是給….以補(bǔ)償。

疑問(wèn)：

23題為什么不能選D做“示范”講?

先從文章的內(nèi)容來(lái)理解的話，23這個(gè)空說(shuō)的是agricultural business的業(yè)績(jī)好，表現(xiàn)好，用performance是很完美合適的

具體說(shuō)這個(gè)demonstration,的確有“示范”的意思，但在英英詞典是這么解釋的：

“an act of explaining and showing how to do something or how something works”,中文做“演示”講

所以用在這里是不合適的，并沒(méi)有進(jìn)行業(yè)績(jī)演示

你理解的“示范”，應(yīng)該是那種帶有榜樣性質(zhì)的示范。單看中文意思很容易混淆
