参考答案:1 F 2 A 3 C 4 E 5 B 6 A 7 C 8 E
答案解析:
1 F Birth（出生）。第二段是这么说的:Lauder 1908年出生在纽约的昆斯区,她的母亲是匈牙利人,父亲是捷克人。
2 A Early Career（早年生涯）。第三段是这么说的:Lander卖给美容院和宾馆她叔叔John Schotz开发的护肤产品开始了她的从商生涯。
3 C Products（产品）。第四段讲的都是化妆品。
4 E Cosmetics Empress（化妆品皇后）。第五段是讲Lauder取得的巨大成就。
5 B regard须跟as搭配。regard…as…把……看成……Lauder regarded beauty as The most important thing in life Lauder把美看成是生活中最重要的。
6 A 有两个选项可以跟"died"搭配:in 1908；at the age of97.前者是她的生日,因此只可能是后者。另外,第～段的最后一句话也说得很清楚。
7 C 从24题的题解中我们知道,Lauder开始是卖她叔叔John Schotz开发的产品。 formulated（配置）与developed（开发）在此处意思很相近。因此合适的选择是"by John Schotz"。 8 E interest后面跟in.In表示范围,因此"in cosmetics"是惟一可能的选择。另外,也可以参考第六段的第一句话。Even after her retirement at the age of 89,Lauder remained closely involved Lauder在89岁退休后继续积极参与。
