2、[Tl]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：overtaken/surpassed

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。限*居講座開頭的相關(guān)內(nèi)容”...amangettingoutofhiscarina

carparkandhittingthedriverofavanwhohadovertakenhimearlier.“可知，路怒的

一個(gè)典型案例就是有人向邊上超車的司機(jī)施暴，這里要注意的是填入動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)，

因此答案是overtakeno

3、[T2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：24%

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。講座中說(shuō)道：24%hadtheircardamagedinsomeway。講座

中列出了一系列的數(shù)據(jù)表明“roadrage”在道路上發(fā)生的普遍性。

4、[T3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：Strategies

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：要點(diǎn)題。講座中明確指出：Sowhatstrategieshadpeopledevelopedto

ensuretheirownsafety?

5、[T4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：approaching/goingtowards

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：推斷題。講座第三段提到：Wefoundthatbothsexesmadethepoint

thatit^muchsafertogetkeysoutwellinadvanceasyougotowardsyourcar.根據(jù)推

斷，空格處應(yīng)該是表示“走近車”的意思。

6、[T5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：parking(yourcar)

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。可根據(jù)講座相關(guān)細(xì)節(jié)"Theyidsumadethepointthatyoushould

leaveplentyofroomwhenyouparkyourcarsoyoucanmakeaquickgetaway...''

得出此題的關(guān)鍵詞是parkingo

7、[T6]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：fines

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。艱據(jù)講座內(nèi)容可知，有過(guò)激行為的人都要被處以種種罰款。

8、[T7]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：photograph

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：細(xì)節(jié)題?？崭裰行枰钊氲氖莿?dòng)詞，所以答案為動(dòng)詞形式。

9、[T8]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：apologized/saidsorry

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：推斷題。限據(jù)講座中的內(nèi)容“Over85%ofroadragerssaidthatthey

woulddropthematteriftheother'careless^riversimplyapologized.”可以做出推斷，

注意時(shí)態(tài)。

10、[T9]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：unconcerned/indifferent

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：推斷題。講座中說(shuō)道：Instead,road「agersclaim,the“careless”driver

seemstobeunconcemedaboutwhattheyjustdid...,從seemstobeunconcerned可以

得出答案為unconcemed或其同義詞。

11、[T10]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：roadragers

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：推斷題。講座的相關(guān)內(nèi)容是：Infact,manydriversactuallysmile

whenweraisea“SORRY”signtothemafterwehaveaccidentallydonesomething

wrong.也就是說(shuō)司機(jī)在看到“道歉”標(biāo)識(shí)的時(shí)候就會(huì)怒氣頓消，但填空題的主語(yǔ)轉(zhuǎn)

換成了Thepolenlial【T10】,若填入原話drivers則上下文不符，因此這里

需要轉(zhuǎn)換思維角度，潛在的路怒者本身也是司機(jī)，所以答案是roadragers。

12、

anadultjustdoesn'tquiteringtrue.Herexperienceofyoungpeopleisthattheystill

案。

C^Tolosethedesiretobeindependent.

D、Tokeepgrowingbeyond18.

losethedesiretobeindependent,andhesaysinhisdayitwouldhavebeensocial

death.It'ssoembarrassingtobeseenbyotherstoliveathome!”，由此可見，social

death是指被發(fā)現(xiàn)和父母住在一起，而“tolosethedesiretobeindependent”是住在家

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：L

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（factors）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入名詞。依據(jù)上下文，即第一段

對(duì)肥胖基因研究發(fā)現(xiàn)的論述，應(yīng)選擇faclors,表示“因素”。

43、[C2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：M

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（faully）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入形容詞。選擇「aully有兩個(gè)依

據(jù)：1.上文第一段對(duì)肥胖基因研究發(fā)現(xiàn)的論述，以及下文提及的genetictinkering

和thiscanbereversed,還有最后一段提及的geneglitch（＞從genetictinkering（基因

修復(fù)）、canbereversed（可以被逆轉(zhuǎn)）和geneglilch（基因問(wèn)題）推斷,肥胖基因是出了

問(wèn)題的基因。2.與mistaken用法的辨析。mistaken僅僅用于表示觀點(diǎn)、判斷等是

錯(cuò)誤的，例如：Marijuanahasfewwithdrawaleffects,andthishasgivenrisetothe

mistakenbeliefthatitisrotaddictive.而faulty既可表示判斷、論證等是錯(cuò)誤的，又

可表示機(jī)器、機(jī)制等出了故障和差錯(cuò)，例如：Thereportsaidthefirewasstartedby

faultyelectricalwiring.

44、[C3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（treatment）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入名詞。依據(jù)上下文，尤其是

與其相并列的名詞drug,應(yīng)選擇irealmenl,表示“治療”。

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（challenges）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入動(dòng)詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式。

依據(jù)上文，即第一段對(duì)肥胖基因研究新發(fā)現(xiàn)的論述，以及下文的“givesathird

explanationorfactorthat,sinvolved”，可以推斷這個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)是對(duì)現(xiàn)有理論（肥胖由過(guò)度

進(jìn)食和缺乏運(yùn)動(dòng)引發(fā)的）的質(zhì)疑，故選擇challengeso

46、[C5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：J

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（suspected）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入動(dòng)詞ed形式。選擇

involved”表示鳥個(gè)對(duì)肥胖癥的解釋是以前未曾想到的。2.與questioned用法的辨

析。suspect表示“認(rèn)為可能（thinkthatsomethingisprobablytrue,especially

somethingbad）M?如：Isuspectedthattherewassomethingwrongwiththeengine.而

question貝lj表示“認(rèn)為不可能（haveorexpressdoubtsaboutwhethersomethingistrue,

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（generally）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入動(dòng)詞修飾語(yǔ)，很可能是副

詞。選項(xiàng)包括generally和publically。publically在此處不適用，因?yàn)樗蚢lready

onthemarket意義重疊。所以選擇generallyo

48、[C7]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：N

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（based）選擇依據(jù)上下文，尤其是依據(jù)介詞on。

49、[C8]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：I

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（magic）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入形容詞。依據(jù)上下文，尤其是

“thatwouldenablepeopletoeatanythingtheywantwithoutpackingonthepounds”,該

從句是對(duì)magicpill（仙丹）的詮釋。

50、[C9]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：H

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（rigorous）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入形容詞。選擇rigorous首先依

51、[CIO]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：（matter）從詞性判斷，該空格需要填入動(dòng)詞。依據(jù)上文“Thegeneglitch

doesn'texplainallobesity”選擇matter,表示肥胖基因只是能夠解釋肥胖癥的部分原

因，食物和運(yùn)動(dòng)仍然很羞要。
