Intellectual-and fight from boredom have caused him to rush pell-mell into situations that less-spirits might hesitate to approach. A restlessness adventurous B agitation passive5 n5 i5 X8 % r4 j h C resilience quiescent+ Y9 X; ! t* y0 V% q1 N P D tranquility versatile% I3 w7 “ f- d“ g4 g8 M E curiosity lethargic 选 A 第一个空可以看出来，是有 fight 的意思的，排除 cde，后面主句说 fight 使他 rush 到一种 状态，从句解释这种状态，对于较少的空格精神会 hesitate to approach，这里 rush 和 hesitate 形成对比，说明后面的精神和 he 所有的特质相反，前面 fight 后面就是不 fight， 就是 less fight，空格处找 fight 同义词。 Restlessness：坐立不安，躁动 符号标注：fight 指向空格和两个符号勾起来，两个符号分别跟“rush vs hesitate”“less”连起 来。 智方面的焦躁不安，加诸对无聊厌倦的逃避，致使他仓促匆忙地一头扎入到那样一些情 形中，而那些较缺乏冒险精神的人面临这些情形则有可能踌躇犹豫，避而远之。 Science advances in - spiral in that each new conceptual scheme - the phenomena explained by its predecessors and adds to those explanations. (A) a discontinuous . decries (B) a repetitive . vitiates (C) a widening . embrace (D) an anomalous . captures (E) an explosive . questions 解答 本题主从句之间以“in that“(即等于 because)连接，示意两部分之间的因果关系。在表 示原因的题目后半部分中，以 and 连接了两个动词谓语结构，标志着两项原因的存在。与 此相对应，在题目前半部分中，“in.spiral“ 表示着两项结果 。those explanations=the phenomena explained by its predecessors 同义重复，那么 and 连接的两个动词也是同一个 方向，明显排除 ABE。按线索互补的原则，将“adds to those explanations“形容词化后代入 空格，则求得(C) widening；名词 spiral 动词化之后代入空格，则求得(C) embraces。 词汇 decry: 反对，谴责，低毁 vitiate: 使变质，使堕落，(使契约等) 无效 embrace: 1.拥抱 2.接受，包括，采取 anomalous: 不规则的，异常的 中译 科学以一不断拓宽着的螺旋形这一方式发展，因为每一种全新的概念体系不仅承继旧 体系业已解释过的现象，并且在原有的解释上增添新的内涵。 Politeness is not a-attribute of human behavior, but rather a central virtue, one whose very existence is increasingly being-by the faddish requirement to “speak ones mind.“ superficial threatened pervasive undercut worthless forestalled precious repudiated trivial affected 答案：(A) faddish: a.1.喜欢赶时髦的 2.一时流行的 superficial: a.1.表面的，外部的，外表的 2.草率粗略的 3.肤浅，浅薄的 undercut: v.1.从下部切开，用浮雕法雕出花样 2.削价以竞争，抢生意 第一个空：与 central 反 第二个空：礼貌 与 直言不讳（speak ones mind）是对立的两个方面。所以空格应该填否 定类词汇。 礼貌客气并不是人类行为的一种表面的特征，而是一种主要的美德，而这一美德的存在却 正日益受到“有话直说”这一时髦要求的威胁。 Consider the universal cannibalism of the sea, all of whose creatures-one another. hide from ferret out prey on glide among compete against 答案：(C) universal: a.1.宇宙的，全世界的 2.普遍的，全体的 3.通用的，万能的 cannibalism: n.吃（人）肉习性，同类相食 creature: n.1.创造物 2.生物，动物 ferret(out): v.1.用雪貂猎取，追逐 2.搜出，查获 prey(on, upon): v.1.（猛禽）捕食，攫食 2.掠持，诈取 3.（疾病）折磨，损害 glide: v.1.滑行（动） 2.悄悄地走，流逝，渐变 compete: v.1.比赛 2.竞争，对抗 不防考虑一下海洋中普遍存在的那种同类相食的现象，海洋中的所有的生物体相互间均会 捕食对方。 Even though they tended to be-strangers, fifteenth-century Europeans did not automatically associate-and danger. (A) trusting of diversity) (B) haughty with nonconformity (C) interested in enmity (D) antagonistic to rudeness (E) hostile to foreignness* 后句的空肯定是 stranger 的同义，意思是 E 人没有把 stranger 和 danger 联系起来，那么前 句就联系起来了，对 danger 的一个态度是负向的。E 合适 d 的第一个空也是对的，是后面 rudeness 没有对应。 automatically：自动的，机械的 To ensure the development and exploitation of a new technology, there must be a constant_of several nevertheless distinct activities. (A) interplay (B) implementation (C) comprehending (D) improvement (E) exploration 不定时表示结果目的所以应该是后面能保证新技术的发展。nevertheless 做副词表示 on another condition,所以与 distinct 反义，选择有联系，选择 A Although in eighteenth-century England an active cultural life accompanied the beginning of middle-class consumerism,the- of literary was-% p, K( H“ u |; X1 j2 L with the rise of such consumerism in the different areas of the country. A.repudiation D. reconciled 7 1 A/ C1 L H; s f B. renewal E. compatible; i! 3 L+ z3 U- y v$ 3 C R C. degree F. uncorrelated 前面半句表示 cultural life 与 consumerism 有关，但是有了 although 转折之后后面半句应该 是无关，所以第二个空是 uncorrelated，第一个空 a 明显不对， active= tending to become more severe or wider in scope，degree=a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality， 在范围上有对应。renewal 用的不好前面没有说他衰退了，故没有 renewal 的可能性，所以 b 不对。故答案为 CF。+ I% D 不言而喻的 依法的, 按惯例的 培训生拿到的 finished manual 是为了？虽然固定但不言而喻的规则，用这些规则来制定 更多的指导文件。 这里填推导比设计、标准化更符合意思。 解释： a manual= such instructional materials. 同义重复，给你看 finished 是看你能否怎么样 rules 来写更多类似的，这个 material 肯定是 有 rule 的，看 finished one 就是为了得到 rule。填 derive 这个题的对应真是非常不明显了。 Compared mathematically to smoking and driving,almost everthing else seems relatively risk- free,- almost nothing seems worth regulating. 选项分别是 yet since so even though 以及 as long as 答案是 so ,这个句子怎么翻译？为什么选 so 从数学的角度上比较吸烟和驾驶，其他一切看上去几乎都是没有危险的了，所以没有任何 行为是值得来约束的了！ 是因果关系！ 因为没有危险所以没有约束的必要。相反，你说不值得约束是推不出来没有危险的。 Ironically, Carvers precision in sketching lives on the edge of despair ensures that his stories will sometimes be read too narrowly, much as Dickens social-reformer role once caused his broader concerns to be_. (A) ignored (B) reinforced (C) contradicted (D) diminished (E) diversified Ironically 说明后面应是二元对立。Narrowly 和 broader 是反方向， 而 much as 表示正如， 前后应该保持一致态度，所以后面一空应该填负方向的词。AD 都是负方向，不过解释是说， A 表示人们主观性地遗漏掉他更加广泛的主题。而 diminish 有一种主题消失得感觉，而这 种形成于作品中的灵魂是不可能自动消失的。 Concern 变得不 concern 就是 ignore The demise of the rigorous academic curriculum in high school resulted, in part, from the progressive rhetoric thatthe study of subjects previously thought.as part of school learning. a,advocated necessary b,enhanced.indispensable c,restricted.impractical d,underminedpopular e,sanctionedinappropriate* The demise of the rigorous academic curriculum 来自 the progressive rhetoric ，那么必定是 该 the progressive rhetoric 宣称 the rigorous academic curriculum 存在各种问题。 d 的话，句意不通。e 更为合适 While some see in practical jokes a wish for mastery in miniature over a world that seems very_,others believe that the jokes purpose is to disrupt,by reducing all transactions to_ . a.dubious,confusion b.disorderly,symmetry c.harmonious,dissonance d.unruly,chaos e.turbulent,uniformity Some vs other A wish 对应 purpose Mastery vs dirupt 到这里 主句上的对比已经用完了 那么 world 是具有相同属性的，后面说它乱，前面也是乱。 Aspartame, a new artificial sugar substitute, is only-replacement for saccharin because, unlike saccharin, it breaks down and loses its sweetening characteristics at high temperatures, making it-for baking. Blank (i) Blank (ii) A a significant D excellent B an apparent E versatile C a partial F unsuitable 后面说了件坏事，前面的评价也是负的 In the days before the mass marketing of books, censorship was _source of_, which helped the sale of the book and inspired Ralph Waldo Emerson to remark: “Every burned book enlightens the world“.

A require convenience B apply measurement C exclude practice D subsume validation E reject fact D 没有把 idea 作为 an important conceptual category（空格） ，第一空肯定是个正向词汇， 前面的否定与 important 形成对应，后面 even，让步更重要更中心的 idea 也不过是理论上 的（空格） ，category Du Bois foreign trips were the highlight, not the - , of his travels; he was habitually on the go across and around the United States.
