B、Womenwhodonotconformwillbepunishedorcommitacrime.

C^Definingofthenormisinreferencetomen'sactivities.

D、Womencriminalsaretreatedwithindifferencebeforethelaw.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：本題考查段落中心思想。原文第1段重點(diǎn)揭露了法律漠視犯罪女性這

一現(xiàn)象并說明追溯其根源的必要性。顯然第1句是該段的主題句，所以選項(xiàng)D是正

確答案。

2、WhatcanwclearnabouttheElizabethFryCampaignintheearlynineteenthcentury?

A、Theinterventionmadewomenbecomeindividualmemberoftheirsociety.

B、Theinterventionfromthecampaignmadewomenresponsiblefortheiractions.

C>Itarousedgreatinterestabouttherelationshipsbetweenwomenandcrime.

D、Itwasamovementforwomentobeimprisonedwithmenduringthattime.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題干中的ElizabethFryCampaign查到第2段，第2段第3句說

明該運(yùn)動(dòng)引起了對女性與犯罪之間的關(guān)系的關(guān)注，所以選項(xiàng)C是正確答案。

3、Theword"rehabilitation"inthesecondparagraphisclosestinmeaningto.

A、restoration

B、freedom

C>boldness

D、responsibility

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A-

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：rehabilitation的意思是“（罪犯的）改過遷善；修復(fù);復(fù)職;復(fù)興：恢復(fù)

名譽(yù)”，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中restoration與它的意思最接近，所以選項(xiàng)A是正確答案。

4、Thewomenusedtobeexpectedinthemale-dominatedsocietyasallthefollowing

EXCEPT

A、homemakers

B、submissivedaughters

C、womenofcharacter

D、devotedmothers

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題于中的usedtobeexpected和male-dominated查到第2段第1

句話，這里的homemaker,careernurturer說明傳統(tǒng)女性不可能是womenof

character,所以選項(xiàng)C是正確答案。

5、Whatmightbethebesttitleforthispassage?

ANWomenandMenCriminals

B、TheCauseofFemaleCriminality

C^TheSexPrejudiceAgainstWomen

D、TheSocialStatusofWomen

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：文章開頭兩段討論法律漠視女性罪犯現(xiàn)象的必要性，后面幾段說明女

性犯罪的原因，在四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有B做題目最合適，所以是正確答案。

A、wastiredofboatingwithStephen

B、hatedstayingisolatedfromothers

C^hadsomegoodfeelingsforPhilip

D^droppedintothewaterwithoutwaking

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：該題答案基于對全文的理解。第2段Maggie夢見Philip和第4段

Maggie認(rèn)同Philip的想法都暗示了Maggie對Philip有好感。所以選項(xiàng)C是正確答

案。文章第1段第1句話暗示Maggie累了，但不要和干擾項(xiàng)A中wastired

0fM對……感到厭煩”混淆,A應(yīng)排除。

7、What'stheroleofthesecondandthirdparagraphsinthedevelopmentofthetopic?

A、TodescribehowMaggiewaswonderinginherdreams.

TodescribehowMaggiedidinhereverydaylife.

C、Tooffersupportingdetailstotheprecedingparagraph.

D、Toprovideacontrasttothepreviousandlatterparagraphs.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D-

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：該題答案基于對各段主題的理解。第1段是對Maggie現(xiàn)實(shí)生活的描

述，第2段是反映Maggie不安心理的夢境，第3段是Maggie對?過去的反思，第4

段是Maggie現(xiàn)在的思考?？梢?，第2、3段的主題分別與第I、4段主題對應(yīng)，所

以選項(xiàng)D是正確答案。

8、Fromthedescriptioninthepassage,welearnthat.

A^MaggieandStephenwereinthesameboat

Maggiedidnothaveagoodrestinhersleep

C、Maggiewasselfishandintendedtohurtothers

D^Maggiedidnotwanttoharvestgreatlove

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：文章第1段說明Maggie和Stephen在同一船上，所以選項(xiàng)A是正確

答案。

9、Fromthefourthparagraph,wecanknowthat.

A、MaggiedidnothaveasgoodfeelingforStephenasforPhilip

B、Maggiedidnotreallylosehercouragetopursueherdreams

C、Maggie'sinnerworldwasreflectedduringherdream

D、Maggiehadadreamwithmanycomplicatedplots

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：文章第4段是Maggie對現(xiàn)在生活的思考，她愿意以長時(shí)間默默忍受

去彌補(bǔ)過去的錯(cuò)誤，這說明她并沒有因?yàn)檫^去而失去追求夢想的勇氣，該段第3句

話中的shesawitfacetofacenow充分體現(xiàn)了這一點(diǎn)。因此選項(xiàng)B是正確答案。選

項(xiàng)C和D不是從第4段而是第2段得出的，所以應(yīng)排除。

10^TheauthorintendstopresentthereaderwithananalysisofMaggie's.

A^drcam

B、personality

C、regret

D、psychology

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：該題答案基于對全文的理解。文章涉及Maggie的夢、性格和悔恨，

但是全篇都是以她的心理活動(dòng)過程展開的，所以D是正確答案。

11、Theword"scurrilous"inthefourthparagraphisclosestinmeaningto.

A、humiliating

B、humanistic

C>hierarchical

D、hypercritical

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第4段首句中此詞用來修飾EdSullivan,按文意此人是被媒體所導(dǎo)

演、操縱的人物，那么用來描述此人的scurrilous的意思最可能是“不光彩的”(A)。

12、Accordingtothepassage,whichofthefollowingstatementsisINCORRECT?

A、TheBeatlesbroughtbyTavistockwasfirstcalled"culturaldisaster".

B>Theoldergenerationisforthecomingofnewexpressionsandnewstyles.

C、Theroleoftheprintandmediacannotbeneglectedinthecampaign.

D、ThetargetednewpopulationgroupforBeatleswastheyouthofAmerica.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析?：第6段倒數(shù)第2句表明老一代對年輕一代的新風(fēng)格不滿，包括服裝、

發(fā)型和語言，所以和選項(xiàng)B的說法剛好相反，因此B是本題正確答案。

ThefollowingareallthecontributionstothebeingofBeatlesEXCEPT.

A、teenagersinnewstyles

B、TavistockandhisSRI

C、WillisHarmonandhisteam

D、gangwarsinthestreet

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：解答此題需理解文中提到的“幫派巷戰(zhàn)”是“媒體對人群洗腦所起作用”

的一個(gè)例子，它與媒體操縱甲殼蟲樂隊(duì)對年輕人施加影響類似，故D和甲殼蟲樂

隊(duì)是類比關(guān)系，而非促成因素，因此為答案。

14、Whatisthewritingpurposeoftheauthor?

A、Warning.

B、Questioning.

C、Informing.

D、Criticizing.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此題考查文章作者的寫作目的。這篇文章屬于陰謀論類型文章，意在

告知讀者如甲殼蟲樂隊(duì)這樣的流行文化其實(shí)并不是自發(fā)的現(xiàn)象而是經(jīng)過精心設(shè)計(jì)包

裝的計(jì)劃，故選C。

二、簡答題（本題共8題，每題7.0分，共8分。）

PassageOne

15、Inmanypeople'view,what'sthemaincauseofmen'saggressivebehavior?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Testosterone.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目中的maincauseofmen'saggressivebehavior可定位到倒數(shù)第

2段首句，該句提到，很多人聲稱，導(dǎo)致男性攻擊性行為的“罪魁禍?zhǔn)住笔恰安G丸激

素”，題目中的maincause對應(yīng)原文的culprit,aggressivebehavior對應(yīng)原文的

aggression,故答案為Testosterone。

16>What'stheconclusionoftheextensiveresearchonthetcstostcrone/aggrcssionlink?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：There'snoconnectionbetweentestosteroneandaggressivebehavior.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目的關(guān)鍵詞conclusion以及thetestosterone/aggressionlink定

位到倒數(shù)第2段第3句,該句提到，對睪丸激素和攻擊性行為之間聯(lián)系的廣泛研究

得出結(jié)論，很難表明睪九激素和攻擊性行為之間有任何聯(lián)系，簡而言之。該結(jié)論就

是睪丸激素和攻擊性行為之間沒有聯(lián)系，故答案可表述為There飛noconnection

betweentestosteroneandaggressivebehavior。

17、Accordingtothelastparagraph,whatneedstobesettled?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Theunequalpositionofwomeninsociety./Women'sunequalpositionin

society.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目要求，定位到最后一段。該段最后一句提到，由社會(huì)壓迫以

及女性在經(jīng)濟(jì)上依賴于男性和國家所造成的女性社會(huì)地位不平等需要解決，這句話

很長，實(shí)際上說的就是女性社會(huì)地位的1平等需要解決，故答案可用文章原詞The

unequalpositionofwomeninsociety或改寫為Women'sunequalpositioninsocietyo

PassageTwo

18、WhatwasStephen'*feelingstowardsMaggie?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Intenselove.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：倒數(shù)第2段第3句提到，分別最辛酸的事情是肯定會(huì)給Slephen帶來

的痛苦,再結(jié)合最后一段的Thesharpinstinctofanxiouslove,可以推斷,Stephen

是深愛Maggie的，故答案為Intenselove。

19、Whatdoes"odious"inthelastparagraphmean?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Extremelyunpleasant.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目定位到最后一段最后一句，該句最后部分提到，她有權(quán)利責(zé)

備他，可推斷St叩hen的行為極不讓人喜歡，故答案為Extremelyunpleasanl。

PassageThree

20>WhatwastheappearanceofBEATLESregardedas?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Anoutstandingexampleofsocialconditioningtoacceptchange.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目中的大寫專有名詞BEATLES定位到第1段第1句。該句中

間用逗號(hào)隔開的evenwhen…是插入語，主干部分說的是人們受社會(huì)大環(huán)境的影響

而接受改變的一個(gè)典型例子是甲殼蟲樂隊(duì)的出現(xiàn)，可見句首內(nèi)容為答案，即An

outstandingexampleofsocialconditioningtoacceptchangeo

21、WhyisthecampaignofBeatlescarefullydesigned?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案:Torebelagainsttheoldsocialsystem.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：第3段第1句告訴我們這不是“自發(fā)的反抗”，該段第2句說它是“一

場精心設(shè)計(jì)的計(jì)劃”，這和題目中的carefullydesigned相呼應(yīng)。第1句中的a

rebellionagainsttheoldsocialsystem指出了這個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)的目的,這對應(yīng)題目問的原

因，答案可用動(dòng)詞不定式形式來回答，即Torebelagainsttheoldsocialsyslem。

22>WhatisAlbertHoffman'sdiscovery?

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Howtomakesyntheticergotamine.

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)題目關(guān)鍵詞AlbertHoffman可定位到最后一段倒數(shù)第2句，該句
