正確選項1-5CDCAC6-10DCDCD11-15AABAC16-20BABBC

真題解析：

1.C[A]ticket票[B]permit允許，許可[C]signal信號，標

志[D]record記錄，記載

解析：名詞辨析。根據(jù)上句話含義，"我們周圍的每個人似乎都打開他們的

手機，甚至沒有—出現(xiàn)的時候"。與手機相關的最合適的選項應為C信號的意思。

因此C為正確選項。

2.D[A]nothing沒有什么[B]little一點[C]another另外一個[D]

much許多

解析：名詞辨析。在這句話中becausethere'stobegained,缺少的

是gained的賓語。所以我們much代替這個賓語。因此D為正確選項。

3.C[A]beaten被擊敗的，打敗的[B]guided有指導的[C]plugged

塞緊的[D]brought帶來，拿來

解析：動賓搭配。C選項plugged與into搭配，譯為"塞進"，符合原文語

境。因此C為正確選項。

4.A[A]message消息信息[B]code密碼法則?notice注意[D]

sign符號，簽名

解析：動賓搭配。sendthemessages譯為"傳遞消息"符合原文語義。因

此A為正確選項。

5.C[A]under在...下面[B]beyond超出[C]behind在...后

面[D]from來自

解析：動詞與介詞搭配。本題中，空格處所需一個介詞，和前面的hide搭

配。因此，hidebehind翻譯成"隱藏在_的后面"，搭配最為合理。因此C為

正確選項。

6.D[A]misapplied被誤用的[B]mismatched不相配的，不勢均力敵的

[C]misadjusted失調(diào)的[D]misinterpreted誤解

解析：上下文語義+詞義辨析在本題中，空格處需要填一個動詞的被動語

態(tài)，同時要搭配后面的"ascreepy"（被—當做怪異的）。因此，結(jié)合四個單詞的

含義，D選項"被誤解成為行為怪異的"更符合原文語義要求。因此D為正確選

項。

7.C[A]replaced被替換的[B]fired被開除的[C]judged裁定的，評判的

[D]delayed延時的，拖延的

解析：上下文語義+詞義辨析本句中，考查我們"fear"的事情是被—.

結(jié)合上下文語義以及選項含義，我們可以直接排除掉B和D,這兩項與“坐地鐵"

無關。符合原文含義的是D,我們害怕被"評判因此C為正確選項。

8.D[A]unreasonable不合理的，不切合實際的[B]ungrateful忘恩負義

的,不領情的[C]unconventional非傳統(tǒng)的,不合慣例的[D]unfamiliar不熟

悉的

解析：上下文語義+形容詞辨析本題考查形容詞的辨析。四個選項本身沒

有難度。做形容詞這一類題要注意它修飾的成分是什么。本句是一個較簡單的主

系表結(jié)構，主語是"strangers",空格處讓我們填表語，修飾的是strangers,

因此，根據(jù)語義,應該選擇D選項“不熟悉的"，譯為"陌生人本身對我們來說就

是不太熟悉的因此D為正確選項。

9.C[A]comfortable舒適的,充裕的[B]confident自信的,有信心的

[C]anxious憂慮的，[D]angry生氣的，憤怒的

解析：上下文語義+形容詞辨析本題結(jié)合前半句的含義，"陌生人本身對我

們來說就是不太熟悉的"，因此，人們在和陌生人交流的時候會更我們要選

擇一個形容詞來修飾與陌生人交流時候的心情，結(jié)合四個單詞含義，C"憂慮的"

更符合這種交流心境。因此C為正確選項。

10.D[A]attend出席,參加[B]point指出,朝向,瞄準?take拿,帶

[D]turn翻轉(zhuǎn)，旋轉(zhuǎn)，轉(zhuǎn)移

解析：動詞搭配。上句語義為"為了避免這種尷尬，我們—我們的手機

在本句中，需要一個動詞，并且能*。"搭配。A與B比較好排除，關鍵看C和D

這兩個選項.C選項"taketo"譯為"開始，從事"。D選項"turnt。"譯為"轉(zhuǎn)向"。

D比C更能說明我們的這個動作。因此D為正確選項。

11.A[A]dangerous危險的[B]mysterious神秘的?violent猛烈的,強

烈的，暴力的[D]boring令人厭煩的，無聊的

解析：形容詞辨析。結(jié)合上文語句，"電話已經(jīng)變成了我們的安全保證"，"

它是我們快樂的保障并且能夠保護我們，不讓我們受到更—的情況。"根據(jù)上下

文語義以及四個形容詞含義，A選項更符合語義要求。"危險的"和前面的"保護"

搭配更為合理。因此A為正確選項。

12.A[A]hurt損害，傷害[B]resist抵制，抵抗?bend彎曲[D]decay

（使）衰退，腐敗

解析：動詞辨析。這段句首有一個非常重要的連接詞"But”,表示轉(zhuǎn)折關系，

說明接下來所要表述的含義與上文發(fā)生了完全的改變。根據(jù)對上一段的分析，是

說人們在乘坐地鐵的時候，經(jīng)?？词謾C是因為害怕和陌生人交流，那么這一段的

論述方向為"但是如果我們收起手機，向上看看，其實不會_的重。"結(jié)合四個選

項含義,A選項"傷害"更符合語義。因此A為正確選項。

13.B[A]lecture演講，講課[B]conversation談話，會話?debate辯論，

爭論[D]negotiation，協(xié)商

解析：名詞辨析。本題相對較簡單，動詞和名詞的搭配，”開始一個（場）

,結(jié)合原文語義，應該為開始談話。因此B為正確選項。

14.A[A]passengers旅客[B]employees雇員[C]researchers研發(fā)人員

[D]trainees研修生

解析：名詞辨析。結(jié)合全文主旨，本文在討論乘坐地鐵是否和陌生人說話的

問題。因此，A"乘客"是最符合語境的。因此A為正確選項。

15.C[A]reveal顯示,透漏[B]choose選擇?predict預測[D]design設

計，計劃

解析：動詞辨析。本題考查四個選項的詞義辨析。結(jié)合原文語境，我們不難

發(fā)現(xiàn)，有一個非常重要的線索點，即"howtheywouldfeelaftertalkingto

astranger"我們要選擇一個動詞能連接后面的"would”將來時，所以，只有C

選項有這個功能。因此C為正確選項。

16.B[A]voyage航行,旅行[B]ride騎,乘?walk步行[D]flight飛行

解析：名詞辨析。在本句中，"wouldbemorepleasantiftheysaton

theirown,"要選擇一個動詞與乘坐地鐵有關。因此，B選項"ride乘"比較符合原

文語義。

17.A[A]wentthrough經(jīng)歷,檢查,瀏覽[B]didaway(with)廢除,去

掉。caughtup趕上，追上[D]putup放,存儲，提供

解析：介詞短語搭配。本題所需短語要與后面的experience搭配，因此A

選項"經(jīng)歷"更符合語義要求。

18.B[A]inturn依次,輪流,反過來[B]infact事實上[C]inparticular

尤其是[D]inconsequence結(jié)果是

解析：邏輯關系題。本題考查的是遞進關系，即下文對上文進一步解釋說明。

因此B為正確選項。

19.B[A]unless除非[B]since直到，因為[C]if如果[D]whereas然而

解析：邏輯關系題。本句考查的是因果關系，因此只有B選項可以表示這

種邏輯關系。

2O.C[A]funny有趣的[B]logical有邏輯的?simple簡單的[D]rare罕見

的

解析：形容詞辨析題。文章最后給出一個總結(jié)性的表述，即與陌生人說話可

以讓你感覺有連接感，考查我們"這是什么樣的問題"。根據(jù)上下文語義關系選擇

C更符合語境。

答案：

21答案Dofferedgreaterrelaxationthantheworkplace

解析：細節(jié)題。精讀題干，劃出關鍵詞Paragraph1,previoussurveys,

根據(jù)題干回到原文精確定位到第句。首句提出“最新研究表明，與大

homeo1

部分研究相反，人們在家比在公司的壓力更大說明之前的研究與新研究不同,

題干問previoussurveys,因此之前的研究是公司比家里的壓力大。

22答案Bchildlesshusbands

解析：細節(jié)題。精讀題干，劃出關鍵詞大寫人物D，問家里誰最幸福。根據(jù)

題干回文定位到第二段后半部分"Itismen...reportbeinghappier",因此男性

更幸福。接下來「因此答案為沒有孩子的丈

butmoresofornonparents"o

夫。

23答案Atheyarebothbreadwinnersandhousewives

解析:細節(jié)題。題干提出"theblurringofworkingwomen'sroles",根

據(jù)題干定位到第三段后半部分"theblurringofroles",指代前面兩句話"For

womenwhostayhomeAndforwomenwhoworkoutsidethe

home".根據(jù)原文定位句信息，得出女性既要忙工作又要忙家務。

24.答案Cearnings這是一道詞義句意題，定位在第四段第二句，At

work,peopleprettymuchknowwhatthey'resupposedtobedoing:

working,makingmoney,doingthetaskstheyhavetodoinorderto

drawanincome.在工作中，人們清楚地知道他們該做什么，工作，賺錢，為了

得到收入完成他們必須要做的工作。這與劃線單詞相對應，employeedraws

outlife-sustainingmoola和drawanincome相又寸應,所以moola是

earnings同義。

25.答案Bdivisionoflaborathomeisseldom-clear-cut這是一道因

果細節(jié)題，答案定位在第五段首句,Onthehomefront,however,people

havenosuchclarity.然而，對于家庭，人們并不是很清楚。nosuchclarity與

seldom-clear-cut相對應。

T2

26.答案Cmisseditsoriginalpurpose細節(jié)題定位在首段末句,This

hascreated"aparadox"inthatrecruitingfirst-generationstudentsbut

thenwatchingmanyofthemfailmeansthathighereducation

has"continuedtoreproduceandwidenratherthanclose"achievement

gap.文中說雇傭第一代大學生然后看著他們失敗，這是一種自相矛盾的事，這意

味著更進一步的教育不斷擴大了而不是縮小了這種差距。C選項是此句話的概

括，也就是招聘第一代大學沒能達到其最初的目的。

27.答案Atheproblemissolvable因果細節(jié)題定位在二段首句，But

thearticleisactuallyquiteoptimisticasitoutlinesapotentialsolutionto

thisproblem…文章相當樂觀因為它給出了可能解決這一問題的辦法,as后就是

文章樂觀的原因，itoutlinesapotentialsolutiontothisproblem與A選項

同意替換。

28.答案Careinneedoffinancialsupport細節(jié)題定位在三段第三句

Mostofthefirst-generationstudents(59.1percent)wererecipientsof

PellGrant,afederalgrantforundergraduateswithfinancialneed...with

financialneed..與選項C同意替換

29.答案Dareinexperiencedinhandlingtheirissuesatcollege細節(jié)

題定位在四段首句后半句first-generationstudentsmaybemost

lackingnotinpotentialbutinpracticalknowledgeabouthowtodeal

withtheissuesthatfacemostcollegestudents.第一代大學生缺少的不是

潛力，而是在處理大多數(shù)大學生面對的問題時的實際的常識。butinpractical

knowledgeabouthowtodealwiththeissuesthatfacemostcollege

students與選項D同意替換

30.答案Dcollegesarepartlyresponsiblefortheproblemin

question段落推斷題定位在末段第三句BecauseUScollegesand

universitiesseldomacknowledgehowsocialclasscanaffectstudents'

educationalexperience因為美國一些學院和大學很少承認社會階級對學生

教育經(jīng)歷的影響，所以。。。這就意味著學校應該為目前的問題負部分責任，與

選項D相對應。

T3

31答案Amoreemotional

解析：細節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干關鍵詞NancyKoehn及officelanguage定位，

找到第一段的NancyKoehn引號里的那句話thelinguafranca...gotten

muchmoreemotionalandmuchmorebright-brained.選項A中的more

emotional即完全符合原文。

32答案Csportsculture

解析：細節(jié)題。題干中出現(xiàn)team-orientedcorporatevocabulary,根據(jù)

該信息回到第二段定位提到it'stheideathat'macoach...team...butmost...

coaches...team.,都是與運動有關的信息，與選項進行匹配，恰當是運動文化。

33答案Dstrengthenemployeeloyalty

解析：細節(jié)題。題干出現(xiàn)大寫任命Khurana，并出現(xiàn)普通名詞importation

ofterminology定位到第三段Khurana說的那句話...non-profit...and

religious...vision,values,passion,...purpose,及下文第四段首句提到

personalfulfillment...keepemployeesmotived,這些均是職員的道德有

關，因此對應答案D加強員工的忠誠感。

34答案Avoicesforworkingwomen

解析：推理題。根據(jù)題干中的LeanIn大寫字母，定位到第四段第二句，

argumentsaboutwhywomenstillcan'thaveitallandbooks...LeanIn,

因此LeanIn肯定是與女性有關的書籍且與工作有關，對應答案A工作女性的

呼喚，是對原文的同義替換。

35答案Ccompaniesfindittobefundamental

解析：細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)題干officespeak及段落定位原則，定位到最后

一段第一句，發(fā)現(xiàn)首句出現(xiàn)句間轉(zhuǎn)折But,及句內(nèi)轉(zhuǎn)折but,因此后一個but更

重要,提至對應選項即為

Ubutmanagersloveit,companiesdependonitoC

公司覺得它是基礎性的，很重要。此外，該段最后一句話又提到了此點很重要。
