dethekeytoexcellentperformanceC、theroleoftalenttendstobeoverlookedD、highachieversowetheirsuccessmostlytonurture【正確答案】D【答案解析】答案選D。推理判斷題。作者用了類似“令人震驚的結(jié)論”這樣濃墨重彩的表達(dá)突出了文章的最終結(jié)論“Theirworkmakesaratherstartlingassertion:thetraitwecommonlycalltalentishighlyoverrated.Or,putanotherway，expertperformerswhetherinmemoryorsurgery,balletorcomputerprogrammingarenearlyalwaysmade,notborn.”（他們的研究得出的結(jié)論令人驚訝：我們高估了通常稱為天賦的特質(zhì)?；蛘撸瑩Q種方式來講，表現(xiàn)出眾的人——無論記憶力超群者還是外科專家，無論舞姿優(yōu)美的芭蕾舞演員還是出色的電腦程序設(shè)計員——幾乎都不是天生的，而是后天造就的。）其中A和C選項和原文主題觀點相反；B是支持“出生年月日決定論”是文章開篇所舉的反例中的觀點，所以均不正確。第14題【單選題】Lackofsleepcanaffecteverythingfromouremotionstohowwellwefocusontaskslikedriving.Itcanaffectsportsperformance,increaseourchancesofgettingsick,andmaybelinkedtoweightgaininsomepeople.You’veprobablynoticedhowmuchrunningaroundlittlekidsdo—andhowsoundlytheysleep.Takeatipfromatoddlerandgetatleast60minutesofexerciseaday.Physicalactivitycandecreasestressandhelppeoplefeelmorerelaxed.Justdon’tworkouttooclosetobedtimebecauseexercisecanwakeyouupbeforeitslowsyoudown.Lackofsleepcanincreaseourchancesof___________.A、feelmorerelaxedB、wakingupinmiddlenightC、gettingsickD、WatchTVandsurfonline【正確答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。由關(guān)鍵詞lackofsleep可定位至文章第一段。第一段提到缺乏睡眠會增加人們生病的幾率，所以C為標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案。第15題【單選題】Fortheirownsafety,householdpetsshouldbe[confined]totheirownyard.A、tamedB、regainedC、restrictedD、contained【正確答案】C【答案解析】confine限制。restrict限制，約束。參考課文：為了自身安全，家養(yǎng)究物應(yīng)該關(guān)在主人自己的后院中。第16題【單選題】TheywillgetthepreparationdoneearlyinMay.A、他們五月初就能讓別人準(zhǔn)備完工作。B、他們五月初就能準(zhǔn)備好工作。C、他們早在五月份就能把準(zhǔn)備工作做完。D、他們五月初就能把準(zhǔn)備工作做完。【正確答案】D【答案解析】答案選D。首先需要注意earlyinMay表示“五月初”的意思，選項A“讓別人準(zhǔn)備完”這種表達(dá)是不準(zhǔn)確的；此外getthepreparationdone表示的是“把準(zhǔn)備工作做完”，選項B的表達(dá)不是很準(zhǔn)確。第17題【單選題】Thepairoflegsthatcarriedhimrickety,andtherewasabiasinhisgaitwhichinclinedhimsomewhattotheleftofastraightline.A、支著他的兩條腿老是搖搖晃晃的，他走路的姿勢里，又總有一種傾斜的趨勢，使他或多或少地往一條直線的左邊歪。B、他的兩條腿搖搖晃晃的，他走路的步法又總是傾斜著，使他有點歪向一條直線的左邊。C、支著他的兩條腿搖搖晃晃的，他走路時又總是傾斜，使他有點往一條直線的左邊歪。D、支撐著他的兩條腿搖搖晃晃的，他走路時又總是傾斜，使他有點歪向一條直線的左邊?！菊_答案】A【答案解析】答案選A。本題考查的知識點為選詞。文學(xué)作品語言生動，其中選詞是一個重要方面。動詞carry有許多含義。此處譯文具體化，譯作“支著”。第18題【單選題】Thesmokethatcomesfromalitcigarettecontainsmanydifferentpoisonouschemicals.Inthepast,scientistsdidnotthinkthatthesechemicalscouldharmanonsmoker’shealth.________.Theydiscoveredthatevennonsmokershadunhealthyamountsofthesetoxicchemicalsintheirbodies.A、TheGilsonshavebeenmarriedfor35years.B、Recently,though,scientistschangedtheiropinionaftertheystudiedalargegroupofnonsmokers.C、Wecannotavoidsecondhandsmokeinrestaurants.D、IntheUnitedStates,ninemillionchildrenundertheageoffiveliveinhomeswithatleastonesmoker.【正確答案】B【答案解析】答案選B。前一句講的是科學(xué)家們過去對二手煙的看法，接下來應(yīng)選表示他們改變觀點的句子，因為下一句表明他們所持的觀點已與過去截然不同。第19題【單選題】CentralheatingbecamepopularonlyaftertheCivilWar.Typically,coal—burningfurnaces(火爐)fueledtheearlysystems.Naturalgashaddevelopedintotheleadingfuelby1960.Itsacceptanceresultedinpartfromitswideuses.BecauseitcomesprimarilyfromU.S.andCanadianfields,naturalgasisalsolessvulnerable(脆弱的)thanoilistoWar.Oilremainsthemostimportantfuelinafewareas,suchasNewEngland.WhatfuelisthedominantfuelinNewEngland?A、GasB、ElectricityC、WoodD、Oil【正確答案】D【答案解析】該題問的是：在新英格蘭什么燃料是最主要的?第一段的最后一句話是這么說的：在少數(shù)地區(qū)，如新英格蘭，石油仍然是最主要的燃料。第20題【單選題】Youconsiderthatyoucan’tfindyourplaceinyourowncountry,soyouriskthecomfortablebutmodestlifewithyourparentsandyougoabroad.Maybetherewillbemomentswhenyoucan’tstandthelonelinessanymore,thestrangersaroundyou,oryourjob.Butyouremembernobodymadeyoutakethatdecision,soyoutakeadeepbreath,andyougoon,asyouaretheonlyonetobeblamed.Whenyouarelonelyinaforeigncountry,youshould________.A、changeyourdecisionB、blameyourparentsforitC、sticktoyourdecisionandgoonD、makemorefriends【正確答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。根據(jù)文章本段中Butyouremembernobodymadeyoutakethatdecision,soyoutakeadeepbreath,andyougoon…可知答案。作者認(rèn)為你出國后可能會面臨各種困難，面對周圍的陌生人、工作，你可能會感到孤獨，但是仔細(xì)想想這個決定是你自己做的，于是你不得不深呼吸，然后繼續(xù)。第21題【單選題】Theydidfindthat______appearsinadreamhasfargreaterinfluenceonmoodthan________occursinthedream.A、theperson...thethingB、who...whatC、who...thatD、thepersonwho...which【正確答案】B【答案解析】that引導(dǎo)賓語從句，在賓語從句中，who,what分別做主語，代表人和事情。第22題【單選題】ShehadcometoEnglandto[pursue]anactingcareer.A、striveB、removeC、quitD、chase【正確答案】D【答案解析】[pursue]繼續(xù)；從事；追趕；糾纏；chase追逐；追捕。第23題【單選題】Youdon’thaveto_____meofanything.A、transformB、upsetC、spoilD、persuade【正確答案】D【答案解析】persuade說服，勸說；使某人相信；勸某人做（不做）某事。第24題【單選題】_______popularbelief,theostrichdoesnothideitsheadinsandwhenfrightened;itrunsaway.A、AstoB、OppositetoC、DuetoD、Contraryto【正確答案】D【答案解析】Asto關(guān)于。Oppositeto對立/對面（方位/身份/性別）。Dueto因為。Contraryto違反/反對（觀點/態(tài)度）。第25題【單選題】He’sunlucky,andhe’salwayssuffering______luckoneafteranother.A、asickB、anillC、sickD、ill【正確答案】D【答案解析】英語中的名詞有可數(shù)與不可數(shù)之分，luck是不可數(shù)名詞，用來修飾貶義的luck形容詞有bad，poor或ill，這時ill的詞義是：不好的。第26題【單選題】ItwasakeendisappointmentthatIhadtopostponemyvisitwhichIhadintendedtopaytoGermanyinJanuary.A、令我深感失望的是，我原計劃訪問德國，但不得不予以推遲到一月份。B、令我深感失望的是，我不得不在一月份推遲我對德國預(yù)定的訪問。C、我原計劃一月份訪問德國，后來不得不予以推遲，這使我深感失望。D、我原計劃訪問德國，令我深感失望的是，我不得不在一月份予以推遲?！菊_答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。本題主要考查英語評價句的翻譯。需要對某事發(fā)表評論或表明態(tài)度時，英語的語序和漢語不同。英語是先評論，或先表態(tài)，然后再說有關(guān)的事情或情況。漢語則相反，評論或表態(tài)性的話往往是放在句子的后面。第27題【單選題】Fortheirownsafety,householdpetsshouldbe[confined]totheirownyard.A、tamedB、regainedC、restrictedD、contained【正確答案】C【答案解析】confine限制。restrict限制，約束。參考課文：為了自身安全，家養(yǎng)究物應(yīng)該關(guān)在主人自己的后院中。第28題【單選題】BecauseoftheRussiangaslimittoEurope,attempts______tousebotanicalfuelasasourceofpower.A、havemadeB、havingmadeC、arebeingmadeD、willbemaking【正確答案】C【答案解析】考查動詞時態(tài)和語態(tài)辨析?！癿akeattemptstodosth.”是固定短語，所以attempts與make是被動關(guān)系，所有只有C符合。第29題【單選題】______leavestheroomlastoughttoturnoffthelights.A、AnyoneB、ThepersonC、WhoeverD、Who【正確答案】C【答案解析】whoever的意思為“任何人，無論誰”，相當(dāng)于thepersonwho或anyonewho。第30題【單選題】LateoneSundayafternooninSeptember1999,OseolaMcCarty,anelderlycleaningladypassedawayinthelittlewoodenframehousewhereshehadlivedandworkedmostofherlife.Itmayseemlikeanordinaryendtoahumblelife,buttherewassomethingquiteexceptionalaboutthiswoman.Inthesummerof1995,McCartygave$150,000,mostofthemoneyshehadsavedthroughoutherlife，totheUniversityofSouthernMississippiinherhometown.ThemoneywastohelpotherAfricanAmericansthroughuniversity.Shehadstartedhersavingshabitasayoungchildwhenshewouldreturnfromschooltocleanandironformoneywhichshewouldthensave.Thiswomanshockedandinspiredtheworldbecause_______.A、shehadmanagedtosavesomuchmoneyB、shegavehermoneytoAfricanAmericansC、shegaveherlifesavingstohelpothersthroughuniversityD、sheonlyspentmoneyoncheapthings【正確答案】C【答案解析】only是絕對詞，在選項D中出現(xiàn)，根據(jù)經(jīng)驗排除D；對照原文第一自然段最后一句話therewassomethingquiteexceptionalaboutthiswoman說她有些特別的地方，接著第二自然段就講Inthesummerof1995,McCartygave$150,000,mostofthemoneyshehadsavedthroughoutherlife，totheUniversityofSouthernMississippiinherhometown.她把大部分積攢的錢捐獻給了家鄉(xiāng)的大學(xué)，A和B表達(dá)都不全面，答案是C。第31題【單選題】Theytook_______measurestopreventpoisonousgasesfromescaping.A、fruitfulB、beneficialC、validD、effective【正確答案】D【答案解析】fruitful多產(chǎn)的/成功的。beneficial有益的。valid有效的（法律/時間）/正當(dāng)?shù)?。effective有效的。第32題【單選題】Marian,thegirlwhowrotetheoriginalstoryaboutRoxaboxenthatthechildren’sbookisbasedon,wasmayor.Otherkidsranthestoreswhichsoldimaginaryicecreamandbakedgoods.Kidsdroveimaginarycarsoutsideoftown,andthespeederswenttojail,whichwasguardedbythesheriff,anotherkid.Elsewhere,boysandgirlshadbattles,chargingeachother’sbasesusingspearsmadewithocotillo,adesertplant.WhoisMarian?A、Sheistheauthor.B、ShesoldicecreaminRoxaboxen.C、SheisthemayorofRoxaboxeninthebook.D、Sheguardsthejailinthebook.【正確答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞鎖定短文本段。本段第一句話給出了正確答案，Marian是最先寫這個故事的人，但是并不是這本書的作者。而且是這本書中那個小鎮(zhèn)的鎮(zhèn)長。第33題【單選題】Butjustlikeyouralarmclock,yourinternalclockcanbereset.Infact,itautomaticallyresetsitselfeveryday.How?Byusingthelightitgetsthroughyoureyes.Scientistshaveknownforalongtimethatthelightofdayandthedarkofnightplayimportantrolesinsettingourinternalclocks.Foryears,researchersthoughtthatthesignalsthatsynchronizethebody'sclockwerehandledthroughthesamepathwaysthatweusetosee.WhichofthefollowingstatementsisNOTtrueaccordingtothefourthandfifthparagraphs?A、Ourbiologicalclockresetsitselfautomatically.B、Lightgetsthroughoureyesandresetsourbiologicalclock.C、Ourinternalclockaswellasthealarmclockcanberesetautomatically.D、Ourinternalclock,likethealarmclock,canbereset.【正確答案】C【答案解析】根據(jù)第五自然段首句Butjustlike（和……一樣）youralarmclock,yourinternalclockcanbereset.Infact,itautomaticallyresetsitselfeveryday.How?Byusingthelightitgetsthroughyoureyes.代詞it指代biologicalclock，不是選項internalclock和alarmclock都可以自動調(diào)節(jié)。得到答案為C。AD我們的生物鐘自動調(diào)節(jié)。B光線通過我們的眼睛調(diào)節(jié)生物鐘，與原文一致。第34題【單選題】Hisfirstresponsewastosayno.Later,______,hechangedhismind.A、anyhowB、howeverC、thereforeD、moreover【正確答案】B【答案解析】anyhow無論如何。however但是。therefore因此。moreover而且。第35題【單選題】CentralheatingbecamepopularonlyaftertheCivilWar.Typically,coal—burningfurnaces(火爐)fueledtheearlysystems.Naturalgashaddevelopedintotheleadingfuelby1960.Itsacceptanceresultedinpartfromitswideuses.BecauseitcomesprimarilyfromU.S.andCanadianfields,naturalgasisalsolessvulnerable(脆弱的)thanoilistoWar.Oilremainsthemostimportantfuelinafewareas,suchasNewEngland.WhatfuelisthedominantfuelinNewEngland?A、GasB、ElectricityC、WoodD、Oil【正確答案】D【答案解析】該題問的是：在新英格蘭什么燃料是最主要的?第一段的最后一句話是這么說的：在少數(shù)地區(qū)，如新英格蘭，石油仍然是最主要的燃料。第36題【單選題】OnaSeptemberdayin1991,twoGermanswereclimbingthemountainsbetweenAustriaandItaly．Highuponamountainpass，theyfoundthebodyofamanlyingontheice.Atthatheight(10,499feet，or3,200meters)，theiceisusuallypermanent，but1991hadbeenanespeciallywarmyear．Themountainicehadmeltedmorethanusualandsothebodyhadcometothesurface．Itwaslyingfacedownward.Theskeleton(骨架)wasinperfectcondition,exceptforawoundinthehead.Therewasstillskinonthebonesandtheremainsofsomeclothes．Thehandswerestillholdingthewoodenhandleofanaxandonthefeettherewereverysimpleleatherandclothboots．Nearbywasapairofglovesmadeoftreebark(樹皮)andaholderforarrows．Whatcanbeinferredfromparagraph2?A、TheIcemanlivedapoorlife．B、TheIcemancouldhavediedfromthewoundinthehead．C、TheIcemanwasstruckdeadfrombehind．D、TheIcemanwaski

份兒”，指部分與整體的關(guān)系，如：Alargeproportionofthedolphinsinthatareawilleventuallydie.根據(jù)題意，正確答案應(yīng)為B。第50題【單選題】ThegreatseavoyagesofEurope’s"AgeofDiscovery,"suchasChristopherColumbus’striptotheWestIndiesin1492,wouldhavebeenimpossiblewithouttheuseofacompass.ThisgreatdeviceforseavoyageswasintroducedtotheWestfromChinaduringthethirteenthcenturyA.D.WehavetothankancientChinesefortheirinventionofthecompass.Whatistheparagraphmainlyabout?A、Columbuswasagreatsailoranddiscoverer.B、ThecompasswasinventedbyColumbus.C、Theinventionofthecompassisimportantinhumanhistory.D、ColumbusintroducedthecompasstotheWestIndies.【正確答案】C【答案解析】本段講了如果沒有指南針，歐洲的海上航行可能無法實現(xiàn)。由此可見，指南針的發(fā)明對于人類歷史的發(fā)展是非常重要的。第51題【單選題】Takeataxi,______you’llmissyourtrain.A、andB、ifC、otherwiseD、or【正確答案】C【答案解析】祈使句可用來取代if從句來表示評論、提出要求、發(fā)出忠告或威脅等。用祈使句比用if從句表達(dá)更強的緊迫性。在表示評論和要求時，其連詞用and，表示忠告時用連詞otherwise，表示威脅時，用連詞or。第52題【單選題】Theproblemisthatsuchanimpulseishardtosustain.Acrossthecountry,manysimilarfamilieswereunabletomaintaintheinitialboostinmorale.Forsome,thehardshipsoflifewithoutsteadyworkeventuallyoverwhelmedtheirattemptstokeeptheirfamiliestogether.Thedivorcerateroseagainduringtherestofthedecadeastherecoverytookhold.Whatwillthecurrenteconomiccrisiseventuallydotosomemarriedcouples?A、Itwillforcethemtopulltheireffortstogether.B、Itwillunderminetheirmutualunderstanding.C、Itwillirreparablydamagetheirrelationship.D、Itwillhelpstrengthentheiremotionalbonds.【正確答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。推理判斷題。文章本段最后兩句提到，工作的不穩(wěn)定、生活的艱辛最終會使得一些美國人維系家庭的努力消失殆盡，危機過后的數(shù)十年中隨著經(jīng)濟復(fù)蘇離婚率再次上升。由此可見，目前的經(jīng)濟危機最終會傷害夫妻關(guān)系至無法彌補，故答案為C。A“會迫使他們齊心協(xié)力”是經(jīng)濟蕭條初期會出現(xiàn)的情況，可以排除；B和D在文中均未提及。第53題【單選題】ShehadcometoEnglandto[pursue]anactingcareer.A、striveB、removeC、quitD、chase【正確答案】D【答案解析】[pursue]繼續(xù)；從事；追趕；糾纏；chase追逐；追捕。第54題【單選題】Wateris[absent]inthisarea.A、ampleB、assiduousC、affluentD、deficient【正確答案】D【答案解析】[absent]缺少的；deficient不足的；有缺陷的；不充分的。第55題【單選題】Is_______someGermanfriendsvisitedlastweekA、thisschoolB、thistheschoolC、thisschooloneD、thisschoolwhere【正確答案】B【答案解析】為便于理解，改寫本句話：ThisistheschoolthatsomeGermanfriendsvisitedlastweek.不難看出，作表語的theschool是先行詞.that引導(dǎo)了定語從句，因為that同時又作visited的賓語，所以被省略了。其它選項結(jié)構(gòu)不對.第56題【單選題】Wearesousedtoourlifeonthesurfaceoftheearththatitcanbequiteaneffortforourmindtobreakfreeofalltheideasthatwetakeforgranted.Becausewecanfeelthatthingsareheavy,wethinkof"weight"asbeingafixedqualityinanobject,butitisnotreallyfixedatall.Ifyoucouldtakeaone-poundpacketofbutter4,000milesoutfromtheearth,itwouldweighonlyaquarterofapound.Howmuchwouldfourpoundsofteaweighifitwastaken4,000milesoutfromthesurfaceoftheearth?A、1pound.B、2pounds.C、3pounds.D、4pounds.【正確答案】A【答案解析】本題問的是一磅茶如果被帶出離地球表面4000英里的地方，重量會是多少？4000這個數(shù)字比較關(guān)鍵，因為在本段最后一句中出現(xiàn)了這個詞，一看該句Ifyoucouldtakeaone-poundpacketofbutter4,000milesoutfromtheearth,itwouldweighonlyaquarterofapound.只是把名詞換了一下，很顯然答案就是變成原來重量的四分之一，因此正確答案是A。第57題【單選題】ApretextwasthelastthingthatHastingswaslikelytowant.A、最后，哈丁斯好像需要一個借口。B、哈丁斯可能不需要任何借口。C、最后，哈丁斯可能想要的那個東西就是借口。D、借口好像是哈丁斯想要的最后的東西?！菊_答案】B【答案解析】thatHastingswaslikelytowant是一個that引導(dǎo)的定語從句，是對thelastthing的修飾。而且在本題中特別需要注意的是不能直接根據(jù)句子翻譯為：最后需要的東西，句子表達(dá)的是一種否定的含義，最后才需要的也就是說他可能不需要任何借口。因此本題答案為B。第58題【單選題】Thereisalotofluckindrillingforoil.A、以鉆探的方法找石油有很大的偶然性。B、以鉆探的方法找石油全靠運氣了。C、鉆探石油有很大的偶然性。D、鉆探石油是很幸運的事?！菊_答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。drillingforoil表示“鉆探石油”；alotofluck本意表示的是“運氣”，在本句中可以翻譯為“偶然性”。第59題【單選題】Attwenty-two,hehadfirstlearnedwhatitistoaNegro.A、他22歲時，生平第一次嘗到了對待黑人的滋味。B、他22歲時，生平第一次懂得了如何做一個黑人。C、他22歲時，生平第一次知道了黑人意味著什么。D、他22歲時，生平第一次知道是如何對待黑人的?！菊_答案】A【答案解析】答案選A。本題解題的關(guān)鍵是whatitistoaNegro，表示的意思是：對待黑人的滋味。第60題【單選題】—Mum,whydoyoualwaysmakemeeataneggeveryday?—______enoughproteinandnutritionasyouaregrowingup.A、GetB、GettingC、TogetD、Tobegetting【正確答案】C【答案解析】答案選C。此處回答why，因而答案選C作目的狀語。第61題【單選題】Intimesofeconomiccrisis,Americansturntotheirfamiliesforsupport.IftheGreatDepressionisanyguide,wemayseeadropinourskyhighdivorcerate.Butthiswon’tnecessarilyrepresentanincreaseinhappymarriages.Inthelongrun,theDepressionweakenedAmericanfamilies,andthecurrentcrisiswillprobablydothesame.WetendtothinkoftheDepressionasatimewhenfamiliespulledtogethertosurvivehugejoblosses.By1932,whennearlyone-quarteroftheworkforcewasunemployed,thedivorceratehaddeclinedbyaround25%from1929.Butthisdoesn’tmeanpeopleweresuddenlyhappierwiththeirmarriages.Rather,withincomesdecreasingandinsecurejobs,unhappyco
