16.especiallyespecially解析：“Around1980many．Japanese，______youngpeople…”，“1980年左右許多日本人，尤其是年輕人…”，所以此處應填“especially”。

17.lookinglooking解析：與介詞for的固定搭配，意為“尋求…”，這里指的是尋求新的價值觀。所以此處應填“l(fā)ooking”。

18.stillstill解析：本句意為“但是空氣污染，盡管它…是最危險的，但也只是幾種攻擊最基本生活功能的污染方式之一?！憋@然，可知此空應填“仍然”。

19.knowledgeknowledge解析：前面講商家正確的分析市場的供需信息，知道是什么因素影響顧客的購買欲望。這就是他們利用的信息知識。故答案為knowledge。

20.WhenWhen解析：這里的一句話其實與下一半句“whenwearedown-to-earth，…”所起到的作用是一樣的，同時兩者也是并列的，when表達了“當…”，所以這里填when。故答案為when。

21.warmwarm解析：由此句中的“contrastiveviews”可知，觀點是相對的，此空所在短句意為“從…贊揚到冷酷的批評”，顯然，應是“熱烈的”.

22.concernconcern解析：“concernfor”表示“對…關心”。所以此處應填“concern”。

23.atat解析：某大學的教授，應為“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案為介詞“at”。

24.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應是“年輕的”。

25.oppositeopposite解析：從文章第二段的內容可以看出，Adown-to-earthperson和那些表面上裝的很重要的人物正好相反。所以這里應填“相反的”，故答案為opposite。

26.D解析：第四段提到基因療法遭受的一起挫折——一個病人因接受基因療法而死亡；接著講專家擔心運動員利用基因在比賽中作弊會進一步tarnish這一領域，從上下文邏輯推理，應該是“有損，玷污”這一類的意思，因此正確答案為D。

27.D解析：由D中的第一段“itreallyisnotmuchofasurprisethatitisnowconsideredbymanyoneofthetopfivemoviesofalltime．”可知。

28.B解析：從第五段中描述到，看到裝著支票的信封沒有了，但是垃圾還在，所以作者的丈夫懷疑信封是被別人偷走了，立馬就通知銀行作廢了這張支票。所以Mickey最終還是沒有從銀行中取走錢。因此正確答案為B。

29.A解析：從文章最后一句話“BecauseofHome’semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart，thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli’sachievements．”可以看出，作者認為波提切利的作品在二十一世紀會被重新的認識，人們會重新認識他作品的成就。故應選A。

30.B解析：第三段中Dr．Laragh提到“…所以建議所有人應該少吃鹽沒有意義?！笨梢酝浦?，他的言下之意是“醫(yī)生不應建議人們不吃鹽”。

31.CC解析：接下來講的是人體的免疫系統(tǒng)與毒藤之間的關系。毒藤會使人產生什么樣的反應，該空緊接的就是毒藤過敏反應時如何產生的?！癏ere'showthepoisonivyresponseoccurs．”一句承上啟下。所以本題應選C。

32.D解析：由D中的“ValparaisoUniversitycombinesliberalartswithprofessionalstudiesandpromotesservicetoothers”可知。

33.C解析：由C中的howitworks中的第二條“Thismeansyoudon'tneedtousesomuchgasorelectricitytoheatyourwaterathome.”可知答案為C。

36.BB解析：由下一段第一句中提到的“tomato”可知只有B中“Supporterssaythetomato”與之對應。

37.B解析：由短文第四段第一句“…the17thand18thcenturiesmademanypeopledependentonpaidworkbydeprivingthemoftheuseoftheland…．”可知。

38.C解析：由C中的第一段最后一句話“Thissourcebook…andprovidespolicyadvice，includingtheuseofcleantechnologiesandenvironmentallysoundproductiontechniques，．．．．”可知。

39.C解析：Stiglitz在經濟學領域享有的盛譽，C中“themostprominentandhisemergence”，“acelebratedtheoristwhowasawardedthe2001NobelPrize…”等詞都可以看出他的杰出貢獻。所以本題應選C。

40.C解析：由第二段最后一句“Toreceiveareturnontheirinvestment，wisecorporateexecutiveofficersarerealizingwhatindustrialistsandagriculturistslearnedlongago—efficienttoolsareessentialforincreasedproductivity．”可知。

41.B由文章倒數(shù)第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetailtothehead．”可知。

42.D由D中的advantage內容最后一條“Agoodmethodofsupplyingenergytoremoteareas．”可知答案為D。

43.A由短文最后一段中的“Andthattransitioncouldprovedifficult．forswitchingrequireslengthyresearchandinvestment．”。

44.B基因治療和以基因為基礎的藥物是我們從遺傳科學中獲得利益的兩種方式。在未來幾年內，這些基因療法會發(fā)展成為主流醫(yī)學。如果醫(yī)生利用基因知識，分離干細胞，然后培育這些細胞，他們就可能為病人提供健康的移植組織。這種技術同樣也有助于克隆技術的發(fā)展，以后越來越多的動植物將會被克隆，甚至人本身。排除道德法律的因素，利用基因克隆培養(yǎng)出來的人的各種健康器官，一些病將會被更好的治療。

答案解析：

文章開宗明義，在第一段講述到，如果我們掌握了基因科學，將會對人類有極大的好處。此外第三段的第一句“Yetthistin-tappedpotentialcouldbeaterrificboontomedicine”，意為“然而這種沒被開發(fā)的潛能對醫(yī)學有極大的好處”，作者在全文的最后一句又呼應了這一觀點。故應選B。

45.D由第四段第一句“However，MacDonaldandotherswarnaganistusinginsurancepoliciespurelyasaninvestment．”可知。2022-2023年湖北省鄂州市公共英語五級(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
