28、壳和金属似乎在当今世界的偏远地区仍然当作钱使用。盐作为钱似乎很奇怪，但是在以蔬菜为主食的国家，它完全是一个 必需品。直到最近，一些国家还把盐块作为钱使用，这些盐块被打上 烙印用来表示他们的价值。在婆罗洲和非洲的部分地区盐块仍可以用 来买东西。海里的贝壳曾在东半球大部分地区的某个时间或另一个时间被当作 钱来使用。这些贝壳主要来自印度洋的马尔代付群岛，然后被贩卖到 印度和中国。在非洲，贝壳被从东非贩卖到西非。由重量决定价值的金属先于世界上许多国家的硬币出现。做成小方 块、棍状的、 环状的铁仍在许多国家代替钱在使用。 它可以换成货物， 也可以做成工具、武器或装饰品。中国最早的钱除了贝壳就是铜，铜 通

29、常被做成中间有一个洞的平的圆片，称为 “现钱 ”。这些最早的钱出 现在 3000 年到 4000 年前 早于东地中海最早的钱币。如今，尽管在一两个比较偏远的国家，有些人仍储藏那些别致的钱 用于以后的一些礼仪场合，比如婚礼和葬礼，硬币和纸币还是取代了 它们。原始货币很快只能在博物馆中看到了。31. c 名词词义题。 substance “物质 ”，任何一类固体、液体和气 体都可以称为物质。首句中提到的 salt, shell, metals 是被当作钱来使用的不同 类c。别的东西，强调的是不同类别而不是感官上的东西，答案故选32. a 逻辑关系题。 本句最后出现了 necessity, 这与前面

30、的 seem rather astranger substance 构成对照，显然两部分之间应该是转折关系， 故用 but. 故答案为 a33. d 形容词词义题。 absolute “绝对地 ”， absolute necessity 意 为“绝对必要 ”另外三个都不与 necessity 搭配使用，故排除。34. b 语篇题。四个选项分别表示重量、价值、作用、大小， 根 据句意可以判断，这里说的是如何制作钱。在钱上打上烙印当然是为了区别 它的价值，因此 value 最符合此处语义要求。35. a 固定搭配题。 recent times 通常搭配使用，意为 “最近 ”， 由 until 可知

31、，后面出现的是一个表示时间的词，因此recent time 符合题意36. c 逻辑关系题。根据上下文的意思，说明 “盐做成的盐块作为 钱使用”37. a38. d39. a40. d41. c42. b43 d44. a45 b的情况未变，故用 still 。even 和 also 均表示 “递进”，never 表“否定 ”，与该处逻辑关系矛盾。 动词时态题。 本句后面那句的事 态是过去时，大意是 “这些贝壳主要来自 ，然后被贩卖到印度和 中国”，因为“收集”贝壳和“贩卖”贝壳是在 “被当作钱来使用 ”之前发 生的事情， were traded 用的是过去时，因此当作钱来使用可用过去 时或过

32、去完成时，故答案为 a 。 逻辑关系题。 some time 前的介词 是at， 可见是表示 “点”而非“段”for some time ），表示“某个时间 ”。 故答案为 d。 动词语义题。 根据常识可知，在河边就可以捡到贝壳， 数量积攒多了，就可以贩卖，制成钱币使用， collect 符合句意。其 他三个词用在此处不符合常识，故排除。 语篇题。 本句中的地点状 语为 in africa, 非洲是七大洲之一，那么从东至西穿过的自然是 continent, 其他各项均不合题意。 动词词义题。从前面内容可知， 这里介绍的是早期的三种钱币形式，显然这些都是在 coin （硬币）之 前的货币形式。

33、precede 意为 “在之前 ”，可见 c 符合题意。 介 词短语题。本题解题关键是 still ，该词表示 “金属仍然作为货币在使 用”，那么自然就不需要使用钱币了，所以两者是二选一的关系， instead of 表示 “替代 ”，符合语境。 介词搭配题。 goods 是前面 be exchanged 的目的，故选择 for 。钱币是用来换取货物的，不是 作为货品交换的，排除 b。 语篇题。本句解释中国早期货币 “铜钱 ” 的样子，铜钱通常是圆心有孔的，因此选择 often 。 语篇题。本句后 面出现了 the earliest coins of the eastern mediterra

34、nean,显然这里是将中国最早的钱币和东地中海最早的钱币进行对比，是 （平行结构，故选择 earliest, 排除其他三项。46. a 动词词义题。现在人们使用的 coins 和 notes, 不再使用 原来的货币了，即取代了原先的货币形式。 replace 意为 “取代 ”；reproduce 意为“再现，复制”；reflect 意为“反映”；recover 意为“恢复，复原”， 故 replace 符合题意。47. d 名词词义题。 前文提到的 salt, shells 和 metal 是几种 不同的早期货币，他们以不同的形式出现，但功能相同，因此这里用 forms of money 符合

35、题意。48. b 逻辑关系题。从末句中的 still keep it for future use和 willsoon befound only in museums 可以看出这两部分之间存在让步关系，表 示这些早期的货币将彻底从人们的生活中消失。两者之间无因果关系，也不是假设关系，更没有对比转折关系，故排除其他三项。49. c 固定搭配题。 ceremonial occasion 意为“礼仪场合，特殊 场合” ，这从后面的 weddings 和 funeral 可以看出，故选择 c。50. b形容词词义题。 primitive 意为“原始地”从前文可以看出， 这里谈论的是早期的货币形式，因此

36、是原始地货币形式，故答案为 bpart iv grammar vocabulary51. d 译文：我们的协会一直在敦促给残疾人提供更多的就业机 会，并且将在最近公布建议书has物主代词题。从 association 后的定语从句可以看出，这里 association 是作为一个整体概念出现的，因此谓语单数动词pressed, 那么后面对应的形容词性物主代词也应该表示单数概念， association 是物不是人，故用 its 。52. d 译文：如果朱迪数学考试时更认真些，她现在成绩就会好多 了。虚拟语气题。本题考查错综条件句的虚拟语气，从句部分是对过 去的虚拟，省略了 if ，因此出现倒装

37、，但主句部分由于出现了 明显的时间标志词 now, 可见是对现在的虚拟。根据虚拟语气 的语法规则，对现在的虚拟应该用 would/ could / might/ should do 的形式。由于 get 为瞬间动词，在表示“得到”时不用进行时 态，故选 d。53. d 译文： 9 相对于 3等同于 3 相对于 1。状语从句题。这里 what 引导方式状语从句，为固定句式，即 a is to b what c is to d 。54. c 译文：人之所以区别于动物在于他们能思考，会说话。 原因状语从句。本句考查 in that 含义，该短语意为“因为，由55. b56. a57. d58. c于

38、”,引 导原因状语从句， b , for that 不能引起从句； a, d 可引导定 语从句。译文：尽管他想周末和朋友出去，但他却不得不留下完成 作业。让步状语从句。 much as “尽管” ，相当于 though ，引起让 步状语从句； as much “同样地，这样地”；a, d 不是固定搭配，排 除。 译文：去年我去巴黎拜访朋友时玩得非常开心。时间状语从句 题。四个选项都可以引导定语从句，但这里没有后面从句修饰的先行 词，因此出现的不是定语从句。从两部分之间的关系来看，后面部分 提到了时间段，因此填入 when ，成为时间状语从句，符合语句逻辑 关系。译文：下面哪句不正确？ 限定词位

39、置词。英语中的限定词分 为前位限定词，中位限定词和后位限定词。根据语法规则，一个名词前的限定词只能按照前位，中位，后位的顺序出现，其中两个前位或 两个中位限定词不能同时出现在同一个名词前。 many 是后位限定 词，而 his 是中位限定词，与限定词排序规则矛盾，故答案为d 。文：你读完那本书后，别忘了把它放回我书桌上，好吗？反意疑问句 题。根据英语语法可知，复合句的反意疑问句应该反问主句部分，本句主句是否定的祈使句 don t forget to 祈使句的反意用 will you 或 won t you, 因为主句部分为否定， 故反意部分应用表示肯定的 will you, 故答案为 c。【篇
