參考答案

1.C解析：第三、四段。作者用事實說明水的沸騰。如，水的顏色和氣味等。選項C是正確的。

2.C解析：依據(jù)在第二段中，比較隱蔽，根據(jù)“Homosapiensisthoughttohavearrivedintheislandabout4000yearsago,muchtoolatetoberesponsibleforthetools.”可知答案為C項。也可以用排除法，A、B、D三項與文章內容矛盾。

3.D

4.C根據(jù)對全文內容的把握，可以知道，宇航員在太空的生活不容易，所以他們必須學會許多新的與在陸地上生活不同的事情。

5.B

6.B解析：這是一道細節(jié)題，由句子“In1905，theNationalAudubonSocietywasformedbypeoplewhowerealsointerestedinbirdsandwantedtocontinueAudubon'snaturestudies．”可知答案。

7.D

8.A解析：本題屬推理分析題。文章第二段最后兩句已提示：twoorchardworkers在兩天內干完的事，等于onehundredworkers14天內干完的事。

9.B解析：見原文第三段。

10.C

11.D本文講的是許多日本火車站啟用藍色的燈以減少臥軌自殺人數(shù)。第一段提到，藍色可以創(chuàng)造平靜的氛圍，想自殺的人會在這種氣氛中平靜下來，所以采用藍色。

12.B解析：參見最后一段。

13.A解析：在第六段，Cusick說，馬戲團在雇用他時就已經知道他是艾滋病病毒攜帶者，因此在他花費長時間的準備之后，又沒有讓他登臺演出就解雇他是不公平的。

14.B解析：第5段結尾點明題意。

15.B解析：第4段末尾講舊的共享的讀寫文化已不存在，又提到specializedreadership，說明讀者興趣不同，故選B。

16.C參見文章第一自然段，因為每學期有4至5門課程，每門課至少有3至4節(jié)課，所以，一個學生至少每星期要上12節(jié)課。

17.B此題是對細節(jié)信息和詞匯知識的考查。其中．關鍵詞是gameofchess．．invented。了解試題和各選項中的關鍵詞后，迅速略讀文章，找出線索。第1段第1句提供了相關信息，

AnoldIndianstory．．．gameofchessinventedby．．．PrimeMinisterofKingShirham。然后用排除法將與之無關的A、C、D項排除。唯有B項中ancient與文中old意思接近，Indianofficial與Indian．．．

PrimeMinister意思接近，故B項是正確答案。

18.C

19.D解析：本題問為什么每年為數(shù)眾多的人來到龐貝古城。從第一段的TheyseethesightsthatPompeiiisfamousfor—itsstadiumandtheatres，itsshopsandrestaurants．Thetouristsdonot，however，seePompeii'speople.TheydonotseethembecausePompeiihasnopeople．NoonehaslivedinPompeiiforalmost2000years．可以得知人們來龐貝古城參觀體育場、劇院、商店和餐館。但是龐貝古城大約2000年來都沒有人居住，所以人們來看的是古建筑，而不是來看戲或購物等。A、B、C三個選項均可排除。第四段中提到保留下來的街道和噴泉，劇院和商店。接下來又說Perhapsthemostimportantofall，therewereeverydayobjects，whichtellsusagreatdealaboutthepeoplewholivedinPompeii．這些日常生活用品包括酒具、面包烤盤、眼部化妝品等。人們從中可以了解當時龐貝城的居民的生活情況。

20.D

21.A文中第一段第五句“Beforethedawnofthetwentiethcentury．．．”表明是在二十世紀之前發(fā)生的。

22.A解析：參見第三段。

23.D

24.D本題是對詞匯知識的考查。文章第5句中．．．cantakeholdofthingswitheitherofhands與選項D意思一致。

25.C解析：根據(jù)文章第二段可知，現(xiàn)代貨幣系統(tǒng)是電子的，快捷便利，具有相當?shù)囊?guī)模，不受地域的限制等，可知C選項不正確，故選C項。

26.D根據(jù)上下文，工人階層的工作性質是被管理并且是遵守規(guī)則的。那么，其規(guī)則肯定是明確的。D項是正確的。

27.C解析：從第二段中倒數(shù)第二句話Thehabitmaybestrong,butitmaybecured可以判斷出人們可以改變不幸福的習慣。

28.B解析：本段第一句為主題句，理解“goingalongwaytoward”是解題的關鍵。

29.C解析：通讀原文，依次排除。

30.D解析：本題屬細節(jié)信息考查題
