問題1選項(xiàng)

A.failed

B.hasfailed

C.wasfailed

D.isfailing

【答案】D

【解析】考查時(shí)態(tài)。句意：如果你不小心點(diǎn)，他可能會(huì)連家務(wù)都做不了。從從句的時(shí)態(tài)來看，if引導(dǎo)的是真實(shí)的條件句，根據(jù)主將從現(xiàn)的原則，從句用的是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，所以整個(gè)句子指的是對(duì)將來的一種假設(shè)，所以主句要用將來時(shí)，所以答案選D，用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)表將來。

B.onthetopof

C.inthelightof

D.onthevergeof

【答案】D

【解析】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A選項(xiàng)onthegroundof“因?yàn)椤保籅選項(xiàng)onthetopof“除……之外；在……之上”；C選項(xiàng)inthelightof“鑒于”；D選項(xiàng)onthevergeof“接近于，瀕臨于”。句意：到春秋末年，奴隸社會(huì)已______處于解體。根據(jù)語境，這里指奴隸社會(huì)快要解體了，所以onthevergeof“接近于，瀕臨于”符合題意。因此D選項(xiàng)正確。

Mr.TunickfiledsuitagainsttheNewYorkpolicedepartmentaftercityofficials____hisrequest.

問題1選項(xiàng)

A.turneddown

B.turnedin

C.turnedoff

D.turnedout

【答案】A

【解析】【選項(xiàng)釋義】

A.turneddown拒絕A.turnedin上床睡覺；上交，提交

C.turnedoff關(guān)閉；失去興趣；離開D.turnedout結(jié)果是

【考查點(diǎn)】詞組辨析

【解題思路】原文空格處的主語為“紐約市官員”賓語為“他的請(qǐng)求”，并且在這件事發(fā)生之后，“Tunick對(duì)紐約市警察局提起了訴訟”，由此推斷，Tunick因?yàn)檎?qǐng)求被拒絕，所以對(duì)紐約市警察局提起了訴訟，A選項(xiàng)turneddown“拒絕”符合語義。

【干擾項(xiàng)排除】

B選項(xiàng)turnedin“上床睡覺；上交，提交”，語義不符；

C選項(xiàng)turnedoff“關(guān)閉；失去興趣；離開（道路）”，語義不符；

D選項(xiàng)turnedout“結(jié)果是”，語義不符。

【句意】在紐約市官員拒絕他的請(qǐng)求后，Tunick對(duì)紐約市警察局提起了訴訟。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:A

第3題:D

第4題:C

第5題:B

【解析】1.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。文章第一段第二句提到到了18世紀(jì)中葉，殖民地和母國(guó)之間在生活、思想，尤其是經(jīng)濟(jì)利益方面形成了差異（Bythemiddleofthe18thcentury,differencesinlife,thought,andespeciallyeconomicinterestshadformedbetweenthecoloniesandthemothercountry），由此可知，殖民地與母國(guó)發(fā)生沖突最大的原因是因?yàn)榻?jīng)濟(jì)利益。選項(xiàng)D符合題意。

2.詞義題。根據(jù)FightingeruptedonApril9,1775atLexingtonConcord，戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)爆發(fā)是由于母國(guó)的武力強(qiáng)制，因此選項(xiàng)A符合題意。

3.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。文章第一段倒數(shù)第二句話提到薩拉托大捷幫助建立了法美聯(lián)盟，為殖民地人民帶來了至關(guān)重要的援助（ThecolonialvictoryintheSaratogaCampaignhelpedforgeaFrench-Americanalliance,whichbroughtvitalaidtothecolonists），因此選項(xiàng)D符合題意。

4.推理判斷題。文章第三段提到加拿大的第一大批講英語的流入人口來自于成千上萬英王的效忠者，這些人從美國(guó)逃到了加拿大（OnewasCanada,whichreceiveditsfirstlargeinfluxofEnglish-speakingpopulationfromthethousandsofloyalistswhofledtherefromtheUnitedStates），可知這些逃到加拿大的人是英國(guó)王室的效忠者，所以選項(xiàng)C符合題意。

5.推理判斷題。題目問的是“接下來的一段最可能討論什么問題？”最后講述了政治的顛覆并不像人們想象的那樣具有革命性。以一些州為例，戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)在很大程度上認(rèn)可了已經(jīng)存在的殖民自治，英國(guó)官員被地方統(tǒng)治階級(jí)代替。選項(xiàng)B“新的州政府的建立”與最后一段關(guān)系密切，符合題意。

7.單選題

Youhavethe（）ofworkinghardandbeingsuccessfulorofnotworkinghardandbeingunsuccessful.

問題1選項(xiàng)

A.selection

B.choice

C.alternative

D.option

【答案】D

【解析】考查近義詞辨析。A選項(xiàng)selection“選擇，挑選”，強(qiáng)調(diào)挑選的過程；B選項(xiàng)choice“選擇權(quán)，精選品”，強(qiáng)調(diào)選擇的行為或可能性；C選項(xiàng)alternative“共替代的選擇”，強(qiáng)調(diào)二選一，后面一般接介詞to；D選項(xiàng)option“選項(xiàng)，選擇權(quán)”，強(qiáng)調(diào)的是擺在我們面前可供選擇的不同事物或辦法。根據(jù)句意：你可以選擇努力工作獲得成功，或者不努力工作而不成功。這里是指擺在我們面前可供選擇的不同事物或辦法，所以選項(xiàng)D正確。

第5題:C

【解析】1.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。題目問的是“調(diào)查表明在40年民眾對(duì)美國(guó)政府的信心下降了多少？”根據(jù)文章第二段可知現(xiàn)在是1995年，說明40年前是1954年。文章第一段提到有67%的人認(rèn)為大政府對(duì)國(guó)家未來的威脅最大。而1954年只有16%人認(rèn)為大政府有威脅（A1954OpinionResearchCorp.Pollfoundthatonly16percentofAmericansindictedbiggovernment,giventhesamethreechoices），由此可知國(guó)民對(duì)政府的信心下降了51%。選項(xiàng)B符合題意。

2.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。題目問的是“在大蕭條時(shí)期前美國(guó)政府在民眾的心中是怎樣的？”文章第二段最后一句提到“我們又回到了大蕭條時(shí)期美國(guó)人對(duì)華盛頓本能的謹(jǐn)慎”（We'vereturnedtotheinstinctiveAmericanwarinessofWashingtonsocommonbeforetheGreatDepression），說明在大蕭條時(shí)期政府在民眾心中的地位就低，選項(xiàng)B符合題意。

3.推理判斷題。文章第六段提到89%的人認(rèn)為國(guó)會(huì)會(huì)把事情搞砸（Acrossgenerations,athumping89percentthoughtthelatter."Congressalwaysseemstobescrewingup,"saysoneyoungXer），選項(xiàng)D符合題意。

4.詞義題。文章第五段第一句提到在樣本中，62%的美國(guó)人認(rèn)為政客的道德和誠(chéng)實(shí)度已經(jīng)下降（OfAmericansinoursample,62percentbelievethatpoliticians’ethicsandhonestyhavefallen），以及比起通過好的法規(guī)，議員們花更多的時(shí)間在他們的政治前途上嗎？（Ordomembers"spendmoretimethinkingabouttheirpoliticalfuturesthanpassinggoodlegislation?）可知這里的政治前途指的是權(quán)利地位，選項(xiàng)C符合題意。

5.推理判斷題。文章最后一段提到由于年齡較大的人在工作中更穩(wěn)定，他們往往更滿意（sinceolderpeople,whoaremoreestablishedintheirjobs,tendtobemoresatisfied），選項(xiàng)C符合題意。

問題1選項(xiàng)

A.equivalent

B.epidemic

C.eruption

D.episode

【答案】B

【解析】考查名詞辨析。equivalent意為“相等的東西，等量”；epidemic意為“流行病”；eruption意為“噴發(fā)，爆發(fā)”；episode意為“插曲”。

句意：如果不認(rèn)真對(duì)待該國(guó)的疫情，到2011年，該國(guó)可能會(huì)有多達(dá)1000萬的艾滋病人。

A.instinct

B.mistinct

C.distinct

D.extinct

【答案】D

【解析】考查同形詞辨析。A選項(xiàng)instinct“本能；直覺”；B選項(xiàng)mistinct沒有此類詞匯的意思；C選項(xiàng)distinct“明顯的；獨(dú)特的”；D選項(xiàng)extinct“滅絕的；熄滅的”。句意：通過多個(gè)環(huán)保組織的努力，美國(guó)的水牛不再處于變成……物種的危險(xiǎn)中。施動(dòng)者是environmentalsocieties“環(huán)保社會(huì)”，承受者是Americanbuffalo“美國(guó)的水?！保Y(jié)果是美國(guó)水牛脫離了成為瀕臨滅絕的物種的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。因此D選項(xiàng)符合題意。
