2.單選題

Willyouplease（）thisarticletoseeifthereisanymisprint?

問題1選項

A.lookup

B.goover

C.dwellon

D.workout

【答案】B

【解析】考查詞組辨析。lookup“查閱，拜訪”；goover“復(fù)習(xí)，仔細檢查”；dwellon“詳述，細想”；workout“解決，算出，鍛煉”。根據(jù)下半句的內(nèi)容“看看是否有打印錯誤”，可知應(yīng)該是仔細檢查一下這篇文章，所以選項B符合句意。

3.單選題

）.

問題1選項

A.answer

B.response

C.result

D.solution

【答案】D

【解析】考查名詞辨析。A選項“答案”；B選項“反應(yīng)”；C選項“結(jié)果”；D選項“解決方法”。句意：對那些有聽力障礙的人，有音量控制的手機提供了最好的（）。有音量控制的手機為聽力障礙的人解決了一個生活中的難題，所以手機是一個解決辦法，所以答案選D。

4.單選題

Inmyeyes,theoldgenerationisalways（）.

問題1選項

A.economic

B.costly

C.expensive

D.thrifty

【答案】D

【解析】考查形容詞辨析。A選項economic“經(jīng)濟的；經(jīng)濟學(xué)的”；B選項costly“昂貴的；代價高的”；C選項expensive“昂貴的”；D選項thrifty“節(jié)檢的；節(jié)約的”。句意：在我眼里，老一輩總是……的。關(guān)鍵詞theoldgeneration老一輩的消費觀偏向于節(jié)約。故選D。

5.單選題

Becauseoffather’spoorcircumstances,myuncle（）myeducation.

問題1選項

A.finances

B.maintains

C.supplies

D.affords

【答案】A

【解析】考查動詞辨析。A選項finances“負擔(dān)經(jīng)費，供給……經(jīng)費”；B選項maintains“維持，保持”；C選項supplies“供應(yīng)，提供”；D選項affords“買得起，提供”。句意：由于父親的貧苦處境，我叔叔（）了我的教育?？梢钥闯鲆驗楦赣H的條件不好，所以是叔叔“資助了我的學(xué)習(xí)”，因此A選項符合題意。

6.單選題

Heopenedhislipsasif（）something.

問題1選項

A.saying

B.havingsaid

C.tohavesaid

D.tosay

【答案】D

【解析】考查asif的用法。asif引導(dǎo)從句，結(jié)構(gòu)是“主語+系動詞”，并且主語跟系動詞都可以省略。本句完整的句子應(yīng)該是：heopenedhislipsasifhewasgoingtosaysomething.其中asif引導(dǎo)的從句的主語跟系動詞可以省略，所以選項D符合題意。

7.單選題

Youhavetohaveyourlibrarycardwithyouifyouwanttoborrowbooks,______?

問題1選項

A.haven’tyou

B.willyou

C.mustn’tyou

D.don’tyou

【答案】D

【解析】考查附加疑問句。附加疑問句，即反意疑問句，指在陳述句后面對陳述句所敘述的事實提出的疑問。這個句子的陳述部分用的動詞是haveto，表示肯定，且是一個實義動詞，所以反意疑問句應(yīng)該使用助動詞do的否定，D項符合。A選項存在的前提是前面的陳述句里用了助動詞have，如：Youhavedoneit,haven’tyou?但是這個句子里面的haveto是一個實意動詞，A項錯誤。B項和C項同理，都需要陳述句里有will或must才正確。因此，該題選擇D項。

【答案】F

T

F

F

F

【解析】1.定位到第一段Nearlyhalfthecountry’spopulationnowlivesinsuburbs,upfromaquarterin1950andathirdin1960.（美國現(xiàn)在有近一半的人口住在郊區(qū)，而1950年只有四分之一，1960年只有三分之一。）題干與原文不符，因此不對。

2.定位到第四段thepullfactors(cheaphousingandtheidealofasuburban“dreamhouse”)havebeenasimportantasthepushfactorspopulationgrowthandracialprejudice.（牽引力因素——廉價住房和郊區(qū)“夢想之家”的理想與人口增長和種族偏見一樣重要），可以得知廉價的住房也是他們離開的原因之一，因此題干表達正確。

3.定位到第四段thecitiesasthenation’sgreatenginesofprosperityandculture.（城市是國家繁榮和文化的重要引擎。）而不是美國的房子是繁榮和文化的象征。因此題干和原文的表達是不符的，錯誤。

4.定位到倒數(shù)第二段WhentheGallupPollaskedAmericansin1989whatkindofplacetheywouldliketolivein,only19percentsaidacity.（1989年，蓋洛普民意測驗詢問美國人他們想住在什么樣的地方，只有19%的人回答是城市。）這一句和題干不相符，只有19%的人們表示喜歡居住在城市，并不是題干說的大部分，因此錯誤。

5.定位到第三段和第四段ThefirstcenturyofAmericanlifewasdominatedbytheruralmyth:thesturdyandself-reliantJeffersonianfarmer.Bytheendofthenineteenthcentury,however,Americansweregettingoffthefarmsasfastastheycould,toescapethehardshipandbrutalityofrurallife.Mostofthetwentiethcenturyhasbeendominatedbytheurbanmyth（美國人生活的第一個世紀被鄉(xiāng)村神話所主宰：強壯而自立的杰斐遜式農(nóng)民。然而，到了19世紀末，美國人開始盡可能快地離開農(nóng)場，以逃避農(nóng)村生活的艱難和殘酷。20世紀的大部分時間里，都市神話一直占據(jù)著主導(dǎo)地位）原文并沒有說是具體哪一年被誰主導(dǎo)，因此題干的表述也是不對的，錯誤。

【答案】第1題:C

第2題:B

第3題:C

第4題:A

第5題:A

【解析】1.語義推測題。根據(jù)第二段第三句Ajournalistwithsomelinguisticstraining,Mr.Erardisnotahyperpolyglothimself(hespeakssomeSpanishandChinese)，（埃拉爾是一名記者，接受過一些語言學(xué)訓(xùn)練，但他自己并不是（），他會說一點西班牙語和漢語），會說一點西班牙語和漢語用來補充解釋前面的hyperpolyglot，和C選項“會說多種語言”對應(yīng)，hyperpolyglot是“語言狂人”，故C選項正確。A選項“喜歡學(xué)語言”文章沒有提到。B選項“接受嚴格的語言訓(xùn)練”：Erard學(xué)過一些，說不上嚴格。D選項“擅長語言測試”，文章沒有講語言測試。因此C選項正確。

2.語義推測題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句Mr.Erardsaysthattruehyperpolyglotterybeginsatabout11languages,andthatwhilelegendsabound,triedandtestedexemplarsarefew.（埃拉爾說，真正的語言狂人大約從會11種語言開始，雖然傳說比比皆是，但經(jīng)過驗證的例子卻很少。），可知實際上語言狂人沒有大家所知的那么多，所以Erard的懷疑是客觀的，故B選項“客觀的態(tài)度”正確，A選項“有偏見的觀點”錯誤。C選項“強烈的動機”和D選項“極度的好奇心”和事例無關(guān)。因此B選項正確。

3.語義推測題。根據(jù)第三段第一句Tofindoutwhetheranyonecouldreallylearnsomanylanguages,Mr.ErardsetouttofindModernMezzofantis.（為了弄清楚是否真的有人能學(xué)會這么多語言，埃拉爾開始尋找現(xiàn)代的Mezzofantis。），和第三段最后一句triedandtestedexemplarsarefew（通過驗證的例子很少），表明Erard的調(diào)查目的起碼有些成效，故C選項“似乎有回報”正確。A選項“都不是很有成效”：在這過程中Erard遇到很多有趣的人，做了一些測試，得到一些結(jié)果。B選項“不會徒然結(jié)束”：沒有提到后續(xù)相關(guān)事情。D選項“高度贊賞”：文中沒有對調(diào)查結(jié)果的評價。因此C選項正確。

4.語義推測題。根據(jù)第四段最后兩句Theysimplyenjoytasksthataredrudgerytonormalpeople.Thetalentandenjoymentdriveavirtuouscyclethatpushesthemtofeatsotherssimplyshaketheirheadsat.（他們只是喜歡那些對普通人來說是苦差事的工作。天賦和樂趣驅(qū)動著一個良性循環(huán)，推動他們?nèi)ネ瓿蓜e人根本不屑的壯舉。），天賦和樂趣推動掌握多種語言的人持續(xù)不斷的學(xué)習(xí)，也就是對普通人來說是苦差事又不屑的壯舉，故A選項“語言學(xué)習(xí)沒有捷徑”正確。B選項“我們都有潛力成為一個好的語言學(xué)習(xí)者”和C選項“有些人在學(xué)習(xí)語言方面更有天賦”：有的人一開始或許是有天賦，但有天賦還不夠，而持續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)不是普通人會做的。D選項“好的語言學(xué)習(xí)者有特殊的學(xué)習(xí)技巧”：根據(jù)最后一段第三句Theworld’smostcelebratedhyperpolyglotreliedonthesametoolsgiventofirst-yearlanguagelearnerstoday.（世界上最著名的語言狂人使用的工具和今天給一年級語言學(xué)習(xí)者是一樣的。），可知D選項“好的語言學(xué)習(xí)者有特殊的學(xué)習(xí)技巧”錯誤。因此A選項正確。

5.主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章通過多個例子證明自己的觀點，可知本文是議論體裁，故A選項“研究論文”正確。B選項“科幻小說”：沒有幻想和科技的成分。C選項“新聞報道”：講述事例不夠客觀。D選項“書評”：沒有詳細評價和介紹書。因此A選項正確。

10.單選題

Wetriedtonegotiatebuttheywereadamant.

問題1選項

A.disagreeable

B.confident

C.hostile

D.unyielding

【答案】D

【解析】【選項釋義】

A.disagreeable不愉快的，厭惡的，脾氣壞的B.confident自信的，確定的

C.hostile敵對的，敵意的D.unyielding不屈的，堅強的，堅定的

【答案】D

【考查點】形容詞辨析。

【解題思路】由but可知，前后句意為轉(zhuǎn)折，前面提到“我們試圖談判”，所以推斷adamant表示“態(tài)度堅決”。因此，D選項詞義與劃線部分單詞含義最為接近，故本題正確答案為D選項。

【干擾項排除】A、B、C項與劃線單詞的意思不符合。

【句意】我們試圖談判，但他們態(tài)度堅決。

11.單選題

問題1選項

A.atrandom

B.atlength

C.inessence

D.inbulk

【答案】A

【解析】考查固定搭配。A選項atrandom“胡亂地；隨便地；隨意地”；B選項atlength“最后，終于；詳細地”；C選項inessence“本質(zhì)上；其實；大體上”；D選項inbulk“散裝；大量”。句意：當(dāng)醫(yī)生對人類的大腦做一個綜合性實驗時，他隨意挑選人且問他們很多問題。結(jié)合句意，A選項正確。

12.單選題

Thediversityoftropicalplantsintheregionrepresentsaseemingly（）sourceofrawmaterials,ofwhichonlyafewhavebeenutilized.

問題1選項

A.Inexhaustible

B.exploited

C.remarkable

D.controversial

【答案】A

【解析】形容詞詞義辨析。inexhaustible“取之不盡的，用不完的”;exploited“被開發(fā)利用的”;remarkable“卓越的，非凡的”;controversial“有爭議的”。句意:該區(qū)域熱帶植物的多樣性似乎是取之不盡用之不竭的原料來源，其中只有少數(shù)得到利用。選項A符合句意。

Theseeffectsresultinnutrientimbalancesinplants,______reducingplantgrowth.

問題1選項

A.consecutively

B.subsequently

C.consequently

D.consistently

【答案】C

【解析】考查副詞辨析。A項consecutively“連續(xù)地”，B項subsequently“隨后，其后”，C項consequently“因此，結(jié)果”，D項consistently“一貫地”。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞nutrientimbalancesinplants（植物的營養(yǎng)失衡）和reducingplantgrowth（減少了植物的生長）可知，前后是因果關(guān)系，所以C項符合。句意：這些影響導(dǎo)致植物營養(yǎng)失衡，從而降低植物生長。因此，該題選擇C項正確。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:A

第3題:D

第4題:A

第5題:B

【解析】1.細節(jié)事實題。第一段指出:Hehadsuccessfullyriddenthewaveofpopularsupportthatbroughthimintoofficetodeliveruniversalhealthcoverage,afeatthateludedallhispredecessors(他借民意支持成功上位，以推行全民健康保險，這項功績可謂前無古人)。所以，他認為此次醫(yī)療改革是歷史性時刻的原因是這項功績，即D項“這是一項全民醫(yī)保改革”。

2.判斷推理題。第二段指出:Buttherealityofpoliticshasobstructed

thatgranddream(但是，政治的現(xiàn)實性使得這一偉大夢想障礙重重)。因此，A項“從政治上說，奧巴馬醫(yī)改的偉大夢想得以建造”不符合原文所述。答案選A。

3.判斷推理題。根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞KathleenSebelius定位至第五段:Allthatseemsimpressive,buthere’stherub:manyAmericansdonotbelieveMrs.Sebelius(這一切聽起來甚是美好，可問題在于：許多美國人并不信任西貝利厄斯女士)。因此D項“她在推行醫(yī)改中遭遇困難”正確，同時排除A和B項。第三段指出:shepointedtoevidenceofan‘enormousdifferenceithasmadeinthelivesofAmericans(她指出‘其在美國社會中業(yè)已產(chǎn)生的巨大影響‘這一證詞),因此可排除C項。故答案選D。

4.細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞thepollbyKFF定位至第五段:RoughlyhalfofthosepolledbyKFFthoughtObamacarehadalreadybeenrepealedorwereunsureofitslegalfooting.Itremainsthelawoftheland(凱薩家庭基金會所收集的近一半投票都認為奧式醫(yī)改方案己被撤銷或是仍缺失法律基礎(chǔ)。這僅是一時之策)。因此A項“缺乏法律基礎(chǔ)并且已被撤銷”正確。

5.細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞befreeinwaysofbuildinglocalinsurancemarkets定位至租后一段:Aslongasstatesmeetgeneralgoalsoncoveringmorepeopleandcurbingcosts,theywillbegivenflexibilityinhowtheysetuptheirlocalinsurancemarkets(只要該州達到使更多人參保并抑制成本的目標，就能擁有如何創(chuàng)建當(dāng)?shù)乇ｋU市場的自主權(quán))。因此選B項“他們能覆蓋更多人（參加保險）并且控制保險成本”。

問題1選項

A.analogy

B.paradox

C.correlation

D.illusion

【答案】B

【解析】考查名詞辨析。analogy“類比”；paradox“悖論，反論”；correlation“相關(guān)，關(guān)聯(lián)”；illusion“幻覺，錯覺”。句意：法國人吃很多油膩的東西，但心臟病的發(fā)病率卻比較低，這是一種很矛盾的現(xiàn)象。根據(jù)前后句句意及yet表轉(zhuǎn)折可知，B項符合句意，答案B。
