Charles Darrow is typically credited as the inventor of the worlds most famous b

21、oard game. However, he likely originated his version of Monopoly from one of several other games similarly involving house buying and selling that were already in existence before the 1930s when he got his patent (专利) for the game.A probable reason that Darrows Monopoly became the hugely successful

22、game that still exists today is that he took a great approach to producing it. Other similar games existed, but they had no board or regulation pieces. With the help of his wife and son, who decorated the sets with details, Darrow personally created the pieces and boards that became the first Monopo

23、ly game sets. His extra work in creating the entire environment that players needed gave his game something extra that other variations did not have.Darrow had success in selling his games in various parts of the country. Several Philly area stores were the first to carry his game and sell it in lar

24、ge quantities. However, Darrow had difficulty selling his game to the major game producer of the time, Parker Brothers. He was told that his game was too complex and had fundamental errors in its design that would limit its appeal. Eventually, the continued sales he managed on his own forced Parker

25、Brothers to reassess the worth of his game. In the end, the company agreed to produce the game and shortly afterwards it became the bestselling game in the country.That success turned Charles Darrow into a millionaire, which is the heavy irony. Darrow initially began work on Monopoly to help support

26、 himself and his family following the financial troubles tied to the stock market crash of 1929. Thus, Charles Darrow became a millionaire by producing a game that allows “regular” people to feel like they are buying and selling real homes and land like millionaires.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了查尔斯达罗的大富翁游戏以及他

30、ected resultCmarketing plan Dunsatisfying reward解析：选 B 词义猜测题。根据最后一段可知，查尔斯 达罗因为在股票市场遭遇了金融危机，所以才开始研发大富翁游戏，但是通过这个游戏他却成为了百万富翁，这是个意想不到的结果。所以画线词与 B 项意思相近。故选 B。4What is the passage mainly about?AThe difficulties in Darrows life.BThe comparison of some board games.CThe way to the success of Darrows game.DTh

33、 Bedfords Captain Richard Spiriet. “The longer period of time you have the heat, the worse it is. Its just the opposite in the winter time.”Craig Anderson, a professor and specialist in social psychology at Lowa State University, argues the evidence is clear. “As the temperature goes up, people beco

34、me more uncomfortable. They become easier to get angry， ” he said. “That increases the possibility that a small conflict will be interpreted as more major.” Anderson conducted a couple of studies looking at crime rates over the course of several years within the same area to see when most violent cr

He found that violent crimes were more likely to occur on hot days and hot months even hot years had higher violent rates than cold years, according to his research.Other researches show it is not so much the physical climate, but rather the social climate, that causes increased viole

41、ore advisable to hold the art exhibition in Shanghai Museum than in community libraries. My reasons are as follows: Firstly, citizens will have easier access to Shanghai Museum because it is located in the centre of the city. Besides, it entitles people to a more comfortable environment for apprecia
