divisionM)occupationF)equalityN)dreadfulG)wisdomO)life-stylesH)obedience

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：H

知識點解析：此句的意思是：父母們抱怨孩子們對他們不夠尊重和順從。從上下文

的意思可以得出，選obedience較為合適。Obedience是“服從；順從”的意思。又

如：obediencetoanorder服從一項命令：Sheshowedgreatobedience.她表現(xiàn)很順

從。

49、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：J

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填名詞。這里意為：很多評論家認(rèn)為代溝已經(jīng)成

為我們社會結(jié)構(gòu)得一部分。所以填fabric一詞。fabric意為："構(gòu)造，結(jié)構(gòu)，組織；

體制

50、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：O

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填life-slyles一詞。這里意為：代溝產(chǎn)生的原因

之一是孩子們有機會選擇他們自己的生活方式。life-styles意為：“生活方式”。

51、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：K

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填動詞。這里意為：選擇父母認(rèn)同的對象結(jié)婚。

所以填approve一詞。approvevt.vi.認(rèn)可；通過；（常與of連用）贊成，贊同。如：I

don"approveofwastingtime.我不贊成浪費時間。Themayoressapprovedthenew

buildingplans.女市長批準(zhǔn)了新建筑計劃。

52、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：M

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填動詞。這里意為：繼續(xù)父母的職業(yè)。所以填

occupation一詞。occupationI：作；職業(yè)。

53、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填形容詞。這里意為：在這個向上爬的社會里。

所以填mobile一詞。mobileadj.（社會地位等）升降很大的e.g.anupwardly

mobilegeneration社會地位上升的一代人。

54、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：I

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填名詞ambitions。這里意為：父母對孩子過高

的期望也是導(dǎo)致代溝的原因之一。ambitionn所希望的東西，野心；雄心；企圖。

如：OneofhisambitionsistobecomethePresidentoftheMotorGeneral.他的抱負(fù)之

一是當(dāng)通用汽車公司的總裁。

55、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填名詞division,相當(dāng)于gap。這里意為：父母

對孩子過高的期望也是導(dǎo)致代溝的原因之一。divisionn.分開，分割，區(qū)分，分界

線。

56、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點解析：選gap。從文章前面的內(nèi)容可以找出答案。文章一直在討論

generationgap,這里剛好是反過來講行考杳。句意：我們社會中變化發(fā)生的速度也

是導(dǎo)致代溝的原因。

57、

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)填名詞。這里意為；在傳統(tǒng)社會里，長者因其智

慧而受尊重。所以填wisdom一詞。Wisdomn.智慧;才智。

B、Theanatomyoftinyorganisms.

C、Theoriginofthebrainandcentralnervoussystem.

D、Theimportanceofvisionforfishandadvancedmammals.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點解析：很顯然，本文從一開始就討論了大腦和中樞神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的起源，從低等

微生物一直講到高等動物的大腦演變。

59、Thehydraisakindof.

A、flatworm

coelenterate

C>seaanemone

D、nervecell

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：學(xué)生肯定不知道hydra和coelenterate這兩個詞意思。沒關(guān)系，看看

上下文就知道了：Nervecellsevidentlyfirstappearedincoelenterates------^hollow-

gutted''organismslikehydraandtheseaanemone.這里通過organisms就把這兩個詞

連起來：coelenterales就是“hollow—gutted^^organisms,而通過like這個詞來舉例,

hydraZH"hollow-guttedorganisms”即coelenterates的一種。

A、brains

B、backbones

C>nervecells

D、reflexes

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點解析：昆蟲是低等生物，它們有backbones（脊骨），nervecells（神經(jīng)細(xì)胞）和

reflexes（反射能力），而沒有高等動物才有的brain。文章第二段談到：最小的魚也

比最大的昆蟲的大腦大，這也就是說，昆蟲等于沒有大腦。

C、Thecerebrum.

D、Themidbrain.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點解析：cerebellum（小腦）協(xié)調(diào)哺乳動物復(fù)雜的身體活動。文章第三段最后一

句談至IJ『這——點：Meanwhilethehindbraingainedalargecerebellumtocoordinate

complicatedmovements.

62、Inthelastparagraph,thephrase"tookto"couldbebestreplacedbywhichofthe

following?

A^Began.

B、Fledto

C、Carriedto.

D^Becamefriendlytoward.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：laketo本身有“開始、喜歡、沉湎于，走向”等意思，即這四個選項的

意思都有，從本文上下文來看，動物生活在樹上往往是受到別的動物威脅、迫不得

已而為之的選擇，所以fleeto（逃向、走向）最合乎本句的意思。
