B、Itissoexpensivethatmanypeoplecannotreallybuythem.

C>Itisthemostimportantpropertythatmanypeopletrytobuy.

D、Itdoesn'tbelongtopeopleiftheycannotborrowmoneyfromthebank.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：从第一句"A项houseisthemostexpensivethingmostpeoplewillever

buy”可知，房子是人们所要购置的最重要的财产。故C项正确。A、B两项都提到

买房子的不可能性，与文章中的抵押贷款从而购房相悖。D项过于绝对化，并不是

所有的人都必须通过银行贷款才买得起房子。

A、hastwenty-fiveyearstopaybackthemoney

B、hasmorethantwenty-fiveyearstopaybackthemoney

D、hasabouttwenty-fiveyearstopaybackthemoney

标准答案：A

知识点解析：从文章第一段"Thebankusuallylendsmoneyorgivesamortgagefor

twenty-fiveyears”得出银行的借期是25年，是一个准确的数字，而不是多于、少于

或大约25年。故本题选A。

8、Whatdoes<vdownpayment”refbrtointhepassage?

A、Moneyborrowedfromabankasamortgage.

B、Moneypaidtoabankbeforethemortgagesisgiven.

C、Interestreceivedbyapersonwhoborrowsmoneyasthemortgages.

D^Interestchargedbyabankonamortgage.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：从文章末段倒数第二句"Thebankwillthenlendyoutherestofthe

moneytobuythehouse”可以推知“downpayment”是在取得贷款之前自己先支付的那

部分款项，即首付款。故本题选B。

9、Whichisnotoneofthethingsresearchedbyabank?

A^Howmuchmoneytheborrowerowns.

B>Whatsalarytheborrowermakes.

C^Whatkindofjobtheborrowerhas.

D^Whatkindofhousetheborrowerlivesin.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：题干询问的是银行查询的内容，集中在文章第二段，可以用对比排除

的方法得出答案。A、B、C三项文章都有提及，剩下的D项即为正确答案。

10、Themostsuitabletitleforthispassagewouldbe

A、HowtoSaveMoneyontheHouse

B、HowtoBorrowMoneyfromaBank

C、HowtoTakeaMortgage

D、HowtoBuyaHouse

标准答案：C

知识点解析：文章第一段由购房展开，引出了在当前房价高的形势下，人们购房所

采用的方式—抵押贷款。并于第二段展开说明如何进行抵押贷款。故其主旨在于

说明如何抵押贷款。所以文章标题可能是“如何获得抵押贷款”，故C项正确。D项

如何购房的标题太大了，超出了文章所覆盖的范围。
