答案:B

题目分析:本题主要考查学生准确解读材料信息的能力,材料中“它是一场没有流血的战争,不具有革命性质,……它是理想的、合法的、典范的革命”说明这场革命是指英国的“光荣革命”,结合所学知识不难判断其实质是资产阶级与封建势力妥协的斗争,答案选B,A C D三项与“光荣革命” 的实质不符。

点评:“光荣革命”与英国君主立宪制的特点是高考考查的高频点。高考命题多是从英国君主立宪制度确立及特点的命题角度进行考查。但需要注意的是“光荣革命”的实质是资产阶级与封建势力妥协的斗争,尽管如此,英国由此确立了议会权力高于王权的原则,这对英国政治的发展而言是具有革命性的变化。

There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.

On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, “ If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages.(工资)”

The sailors had heard about the captain’ cheating, so they didn’t trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water and, though it was very cold, stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore abut half a mile away.

“ You are cheating,” the captain said to the sailor. “ The fire’s warming you.”

“ But it’s half a mile away.” Said the sailor.

“ A fire is fire,” answered the captain.

“ Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can’t cook a chicken,” said the sailor.

“ I can’t,” answered the captain.

“ If you cook this chicken,” said the sailor, “ I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can’t, you will give me your ship.”

The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, “ Where’s the fire?”

“There it is,” answered the sailors, “ On the shore.”

“ ‘A fire’s fire’, you said,” answered the sailor. “ If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken.”
