B.indefinitely

C.irrelevantly

D.independently

【答案】D

【解析】indistinctly朦胧地；indefinitely无限地,不明确地；irrelevantly不相干地；independently独立地。根据句意可知应填入与inseparable相反的词,选项D符合语境。

2.单选题

（

）eatriceratherthanpotatoes.

问题1选项

A.Mostofpeople

B.Mostofthepeople

C.Themostofpeople

D.Themostpeople

【答案】B

【解析】考查固定搭配。most后面可以直接跟可数或者不可数名词，意思是“大多数”；mostof后面接有定冠词、指示代词或物主代词所修饰的名词，表示“特定范围中的大多数”；themost后面通常跟形容词，表示最高级。因此选项B符合题意。

3.单选题

Thewoodencasesmustbesecuredbyoverallmetalstrappingsothattheycanbestrongenoughtostandroughhandlingduring（）.

问题1选项

A.transit

B.motion

C.shift

D.traffic

【答案】A

【解析】考查名词词义辨析。A选项transit“搬运”；B选项motion“运动”；C选项shift“转移”；D选项traffic“交通”。句意：木箱必须用整体金属带固定，这样才能保证木箱在运输过程中足够坚固，经得起粗暴的搬运。本句表示木箱的搬运过程，因此A选项正确。

4.填空题

Lizdidn’ttellherfriendsthatshewasill,soasaresult（1）ofthemcametoseeher（2）shewasinthehospital.

【答案】1.none

2.when

【解析】1.语义题。None表示“没有一个”。

5.填空题

whenLondonreplacesNewYorkasthecapital

A

B

C

D

ofPR.

【答案】Dwhen改为before

【解析】【考查点】从句。

【解题思路】D部分到句子结尾是时间状语从句，表示用不了多久伦敦就会取代纽约，引导词用before，表示在伦敦取代纽约要不了多长时间。

【句意】最近的一项调查发现，超过一半的英国公司将公关作为公司规划活动的一部分，而美国公司的这一比例只有三分之一。用不了多久，伦敦就会取代纽约成为公关之都。

6.单选题

Everythingintheuniverseundergoes（

）developmentandchange.

问题1选项

A.constant

B.continual

C.continuous

D.endless

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项constant“不变的，经常的”；B选项continual“持续不断的”；C选项continuous“连续的，持续的”；D选项endless“无限的”。句意：世界上的所有事情都经历着（）发展和变化。D选项作“无休止的”的解释是一般形容不好的事物，所以不能选；

Constant：多指习惯性的重复和不变的持续，这里修饰的词语是change，所以不符合语境；

Continual：强调重复或持续发生，但连续之间允许有间断；

Continuous：语意最强，强调在时间和空间上没有间断；

这里发展和变化之间会存在着间断，所以C选项最符合题意。

【答案】第1题:B

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:A

第5题:A

【解析】第1题:细节事实题。题目问的是“以下选项中哪个没在文章中被提到？”文章第一段提到“天气预报员可以确定气团和气锋……”（Weatherforecastersareabletodeterminethespeedofairmassesandfronts...）；文章第二段提到“美国国家气象局通常发布有关即将到来的暴风雨、洪水、霜冻、干旱和所有气候情况的信息”（heUnitedStatesWeatherBureauissuesinformationaboutapproachingstorms,floods,frosts,droughts,andallclimaticconditionsingeneral），由此可知，只有选项B没有被提及，符合题意。

第2题:细节事实题。题目问的是“30天的预报是由什么决定的？”文章第二段最后一句话提到“这三十天的天气预报建立在对上层空气分析的基础上，而上层空气经常为气团、气锋和暴风雨的发展创造条件”（These30-dayoutlooksarebaseduponananalysisoftheupperairlevelwhichoftensetthestageforthedevelopmentofairmasses,frontsandstorms），由此可知选项B“上层空气”符合题意。

第3题:推理判断题。题目问的是“卫星来观测天气的优势是什么？”文章最后一段提到“通过电子仪器和地球卫星，人们近年来在识别和跟踪仅有少量气象站的地区的暴风雨方面取得了很大的收获”（Withtheuseofelectronicinstrumentsandearthsatellites,enormousgainshavetakenplacerecentlyinidentifyingandtrackingstormsoverregionswhichhavebutfewmeteorologicalstations），选项D“提供给科学家们在其他方面不容易获得的信息”符合题意。

第4题:细节事实题。题目问的是“实验正在哪些方面操作？”文章最后一段最后一句话提到“大量实验正在为了气象改造而被进行着”（Extensiveexperimentsarealsoinprogressforweathermodificationstudies），因此选项A“操纵天气”符合题意。

第5题:细节事实题。题目问的是“为什么说气象图是气象学？”文章第二段提到“气象图包含着大量关于天气情况的信息，这些天气情况在观察时间存在于一个大的地理区域上”（Weathermapscontainanenormousamountofinformationaboutweatherconditionsexistingatthetimeofobservationoveralargegeographicalarea），选项A“包含很多信息”符合题意。

【答案】第1题:B

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:C

第5题:A

【解析】1.主旨大意题。文章第一段提出有些国家种族偏见严重，而暴力却是公认的一种解决方法，我们仍然没有认识到，暴力永远不能解决问题，而是使问题更加尖锐。第二段阐述了真正有理智的人在宣扬法制，却遭到轻视和迫害，作者认为真正的解决方案不是暴力，而是法制。第三段进一步说明“交流、对话”是了解双方问题的前提，而暴力制造了它假装要解决的罪恶。整篇文章都在阐述不能依靠暴力手段解决歧视问题。因此B选项“暴力无助于消除种族偏见”最适合作为文章标题。A选项“提倡暴力”，C选项“双方的重要人物都认为暴力是合法的解决方案”，D选项“人类的本能渴望暴力”，因为文章是不宣扬暴力的，所以A，C，D都不适合作为标题。

2.客观细节题。由题干关键词“Recordedhistory”可以定位到文章第一段倒数第四句“Thewholeoftherecordedhistoryofthehumanrace,thattediousdocumentationofviolence,hastaughtusabsolutelynothing.”（整个有记录的人类历史，那冗长乏味的暴力记录，没有教会我们任何东西。），说明人类历史上的暴力记录没有教会我们任何东西。因此B选项“什么也没有”正确。A选项“暴力永远解决不了任何问题”和C选项“流血事件毫无意义”，文中说我们还没有认识到暴力不能解决问题、流血和痛苦毫无意义，所以历史上的暴力记录并没有教会我们这两点，A，C错误。D选项“一切”和nothing是相反的，所以D错误。

3.推理判断题。由题干关键词“reasonablemen”可以定位到文章第二段第一、二句Thetrulyreasonablemenwhoknowwherethesolutionsliearefindingitharderandhardertogetahearing.Theyaredespised,mistrustedandevenpersecutedbytheirownkindbecausetheyadvocatesuchapparentlyoutrageousthingsaslawenforcement.（真正理智的人知道解决办法在哪里，却发现越来越难得到倾听。他们被鄙视，不信任，甚至被他们的同类迫害，因为他们提倡诸如执法这样明显无法容忍的事情。），说明理智的人倡导法制，却遭到了许多困难。因此D选项“在提倡执法方面遭到困难。”正确。A选项“不被听见”，B选项“被轻视”，C选项“受到迫害”都只是遇到困难的某一个方面，本质上是因为他们提倡执法，所以A，B，C错误。

4.语义推测题。由题干可以定位到文章最后一段中It’sratherlikethestoryofthefamousbarristerwhopainstakinglyexplainedhiscasetothejudge.Afterlisteningtoalengthyargumentthejudgecomplainedthatafterallthistalk,hewasnonethewiser.（这很像一个著名律师的故事，他煞费苦心地向法官解释他的案子。听了他的长篇辩论，法官抱怨说他并没有因此而变得聪明些。），说明“Hewasnonethewiser”在这里的意思是他听了之后什么也没有得到。因此C选项“听后无所得。”符合题意。A选项“他根本不明智，听不进去”，B选项“他以前一点也不明智”，D选项“他对这场争论毫无意义”都不能表示他听后什么也没有得到的意思，所以A，B，D错误。

5.推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章第二段最后一句Genuineandlastingsolutionsarealwayspossible,providingweworkwithintheframeworkofthelaw.（只要我们在法律框架内工作，真正和持久的解决办法总是可能的。），说明作者认为解决种族歧视的最好方法是法制。因此A选项“法制”正确。B选项“知识”，C选项“非暴力”，D选项“清理暴力的混乱”并不是作者认为解决问题的最好方法，所以B，C，D错误。

9.单选题

Thecitysigneda/an（

）contractwithItalyinordertomakefulluseoftheirnaturalresourcesandcapital.

问题1选项

A.unusual

B.influential

C.residential

D.reciprocal

【答案】D

【解析】形容词辨析题。A选项unusual“不寻常的”；B选项influential“有影响的，有势力的”；C选项residential“住宅的”；D选项reciprocal“互惠的”。句意：为了充分利用其自然资源和资本，该市与意大利签订了互惠合约。选项D符合句意。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:B

第5题:A

【解析】16.【试题答案】C

【试题解析】细节事实题。文章第一段第三句Thegreeneritbecametheeasieritwastoforgettheoutside.（森林越茂密，就越容易忘记外面的环境），C选项“帮助他忘记了他所憎恨的世界”为正确选项。A选项“这使他想起了他在远处镇上的家”正好与Melio的意图相反。B选项“阻止了Parakanas监视他”不符合文章内容，可排除。D选项“保护他不受镇上白人的侵扰”文章并未提及，只在结尾处提到Melio从不邀请白人去那儿，因此可排除D选项。因此C选项正确。

17.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】细节事实题。文章第二段第二句TheirChiefneverlookedcloselyatMelioandsaidtohimselfthatthiswhitemanwasasmadasasnakewhichchewsoffitsowntail.（酋长从未仔细看过梅里奥，他自言自语地说，这个白人就像咬断自己尾巴的蛇一样疯狂），由此可知，选项B“和梅里奥走得太近是不明智的”为正确答案。选项A“他不信任梅里奥”，文章并未提及，可排除。选项C“他相信梅里奥憎恨Parakanas”，文章并未提及，可排除。选项D“他觉得梅里奥疯了”，文章并未提及，可排除。因此B选项正确。

18.【试题答案】D

【试题解析】推理判断题。选项A“梅里奥在他的农场待了几年”，定位到第二段倒数第二句Hehadwildbirds,fatlong-leggedonesandthinnearlyfeatherlesschickens,andhiscornandsaltedfishwasenoughtokeephimstockedupthroughthewetseason.（他养的是野鸟，有长腿的肥鸟，也有几乎没有羽毛的瘦鸡。他养的玉米和咸鱼足够他在雨季储存食物）可推测梅里奥在农场待过几年，排除A选项。选项B“梅里奥觉得自己像个囚犯，因为他无法逃避被监视”可定位到文中第三段第二句He’dneveradmititbuthecouldfeelthatthetreeswerelikethebarsofaprison:theywerewatchinghim.（他从不承认，但他能感觉到那些树就像监狱的铁栏：它们在监视着他），因此可排除B选项。选项C“在雨季，梅里奥靠吃他储存的食物来维持生命”可定位到文中第二段倒数第一句andhiscornandsaltedfishwasenoughtokeephimstockedupthroughthewetseason.（他的玉米和咸鱼足够他在雨季储存粮食），因此可排除C选项。D选项“Parakanas认为Melio住在那里是因为他在寻找橡胶和珠宝”，在文中没有提及，因此D选项正确。

19.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章第三段倒数第二句Thentheyhadacuriousbutcharminghabitoftakingapacebackfromhim,justoneoddstepbackwardsintotheirgreencorridors.（然后，他们有一个奇怪而又迷人的习惯，总是退后一步，向绿色的走廊退一步）。B选项“奇怪，但有吸引力”与题干相符，因此B选项正确。

20.【试题答案】A

【试题解析】推理判断题。A选项“远离文明”，通读全文可知，A选项为正确答案。B选项“不可能培养”，文章第二段最后，提到Melio的土地成了一个农场，可排除B选项。C选项“梅里奥印第安亲戚的家”，文章中并没有提到Melio印度亲戚，那些人只是他的邻居，可排除C选项。D选项“终年潮湿”，文章第二段结尾提到“他的玉米和咸鱼足够他在雨季储存粮食”，可看出这个地方不是终年潮湿，可排除D选项。因此A选项正确。

11.单选题

问题1选项

A.independent

B.proprietary

C.social

D.stable

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项independent“独立的；单独的；无党派的；不受约束的”；B选项proprietary“专卖的，专营的；所有的，所有权的”；C选项social“社会的，社交的；群居的”；D选项stable“稳定的，牢固的；稳重的，沉稳的；持久的”。句意：对于禁猎区的猴子而言，最重要的一点是它们是一个群体；这之所以如此，是因为灵长目动物具有一种根深蒂固的群居习性，均围绕着对方而营造其生活。
