问题1选项

A.preoccupied

B.embarrassed

C.overwhelmed

D.counseled

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项preoccupied“使全神贯注，抢先占有”；B选项embarrassed“使困窘”；C选项overwhelmed“（情感）难以承受”；D选项counseled“被劝告”。句意：我被他们的善良（），感动得流下眼泪。overwhelmed“（情感）难以承受”和带有情绪色彩的movetotear搭配使句子通顺。因此C选项正确。

【解析】1.定位到第一段Andasourpopulationbegantheyear2000abovethe6billionmark,stillspreadingacrossthecontinents,dozensofanimalandplantspeciesweredyingouteveryday,includingthefirstprimatetodisappearinmorethan100years.（当我们的人口在2000年开始时超过了60亿，仍然遍布各大洲，每天都有几十种动物和植物灭绝，包括100多年来第一个灭绝的灵长类动物。）可以看得出动植物物种都在减少，因此题干错误。

2.定位到第二段Nospecificeventcouldbedirectlyblamedonglobalwarming,floodsanddroughtwillbemorefrequent—andsevere.（没有特定的事件可以直接归咎于全球变暖，洪水和干旱将会更频繁和严重。）可以看出目前并没有证据证明是人口增多引起的，因此题干错误。

3.定位到第一段Throughoutthepastcenturyhumanitydideverythinginitspowertocontrolnature.Wedammedearth’srivers,choppeddowntheforestsandexhaustedthesoils.（在过去的一个世纪里，人类尽其所能控制自然。我们在河流上筑坝，砍伐森林，耗尽土壤。）通过这句话可以得出题干是正确的。

4.定位到最后一段Thegoalforthenewcenturyis“sustainabledevelopment”.Isthatpossible?Itdependsonhowwellweunderstandthathumanityispartofnature,notlordandmaster.（新世纪的目标是“可持续发展”。这有可能吗?这取决于我们对人类是自然的一部分，而不是主人的理解程度。）因此可以看出，可持续发展指的并不是题干所说的“经济发展将充分利用自然资源”，而是人类要意识到自己要和大自然共同发展，因此题干错误。

5.根据全文来看，作者一直都是在说明现在环境的恶劣，以及人类的责任重大，需要和自然好好相处，因此作者的意图就是希望大家重视环境保护问题。题干表达正确。

3.单选题

Atfirst,thecompanyrefusedtopurchasetheequipment,butthisdecisionwas______revised.

问题1选项

A.subsequently

B.successively

C.predominantly

D.preliminarily

【答案】A

【解析】考查副词辨析。subsequently“随后”；successively“相继地”；predominantly“主要地；显著地”；preliminarily“初步地”。句意：起初，该公司拒绝购买设备，但这一决定……被修改了。根据句意选用“后来”更合适，因此A选项符合题意。

4.单选题

Thenoisewasso（）thatonlythosewithexcellenthearingwereawareofit.

问题1选项

A.dim

B.quiet

C.gentle

D.faint

【答案】D

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项dim“不亮的；看不清的”；B选项quiet“安静的”；C选项gentle“温和的；文雅的；高尚的”；D选项faint“微弱的；模糊的；不清楚的”。句意：噪音非常……，以至于只有具有良好听力的人才能听到。词组sothat“如此……以至于……”后半句只有听力非常出色的人才能听到，由此可知，噪音是非常微弱的。故选D。

5.单选题

Ijustlearntfrom’'InterculturalEducation"coursethatanEnglishmanseldom（）aconversationamongstrangers.

问题1选项

A.breaksdown

B.givesriseto

C.initiates

D.resumes

【答案】C

【解析】考查动词和词组。A选项breakdown表示“分解，发生故障”，B选项giveriseto表示“使发生，引起”，C选项initiates表示“启动，开始”，D选项resume表示“重新开始，重新回到，重新占用”。由句意可知，我刚从“跨文化教育”课程中了解到，英国人很少与陌生人对话。空缺处单词需与conversation构成动宾短语，表示“发起会话”，因此只有initiate最符合语境，故本题正确答案为C选项。

6.单选题

Themoreskilfulyouare,themoreyontendtocutcornerswhich,ifuncheckedforlongperiods,will______intobadhabits.

问题1选项

A.split

B.sneak

C.delude

D.degenerate

【答案】D

【解析】考查动词辨析。A项split“分离，使分离，劈开”，B项sneak“溜，鬼鬼祟祟做事，向老师打小报告”，C项delude“欺骗，哄骗，诱惑”，D项degenerate“使退化，恶化，堕落”。由Themoreskilfulyouare,themoreyontendtocutcorners“你的技术越熟练，你就越容易走捷径”可知，空格处填入“养成、变成”符合语境，而degenerateinto表示“退化为”，意思与之相近。句意：你的技术越熟练，你就越容易走捷径，如果长期不加以控制，就会退化为坏习惯。因此，该题选择D项正确。

7.单选题

Shewasso（

）fortheknowledgethatshehadtaughtherselfallthecoursesbeforeshewenttocollege.

问题1选项

A.grave

B.greedy

C.anxious

D.worried

【答案】B

【解析】形容词辨析题。A选项grave“重大的”；B选项greedy“贪婪的，渴望的”；C选项anxious“焦虑的”；D选项worried“担心的”。句意：她是对知识是如此的渴望，以至于她在上大学之前就自学了所有的课程。选项B符合句意。

D.theycanmakehugeprofitsfromit.

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:C

【解析】1.推理判断题。由第一段Foragrowingnumberoftime-starvedconsumers,however,shoppingfromtheirhomecomputerwasprovingtobeaconvenientalternativetodrivingtothestore.然而，对于越来越多缺乏时间的消费者来说，事实证明，用家用电脑购物比开车去商店更方便。Foralltheconsumerinterest,retailingincyberspacewasstillalargelyunprofitablebusiness,尽管有消费者感兴趣，但网络零售在很大程度上仍是一项无利可图的业务，可知AC两项表述与原文相反，B项“消费者太忙而不会网上购物”表述有误。故D项“越来越多的消费者更喜欢网购”正确。

2.细节事实题。由第二段FindingabargainwasgettingeasierowingtotheriseofonlineauctionsandWebsitesthatdidcomparisonshoppingontheInternetforthebestdeal.由于网上拍卖和一些为了比价买最划算的产品的网站兴起，寻找便宜货变得越来越容易。可知B项正确。

3.语义题。Foralltheconsumerinterest,retailingincyberspacewasstillalargelyunprofitablebusiness,尽管消费者感兴趣，但网络零售在很大程度上仍是一项无利可图的业务。接着下文列举了亚马逊的亏损。故interest在句中意为“感兴趣”，即使很多消费者喜欢网上购物，但网上零售仍是无利可图的。故C项正确。

4.推理判断题。由InternetpioneerAmazon.Com,whichbegansellingbooksin1995andlaterbranchedintorecordedmusicandvideos…互联网先驱亚马逊。1995年，该公司开始销售图书，后来又涉足录制音乐和视频。以及analystsdidnotexpectthecompanytoturnaprofituntil2001.Despitethegreatloss,Ahadastockmarketvalueofmanybillion,reflectinginvestors’optimismaboutthefutureofindustry.分析师们预计，该公司要到2001年才会盈利。尽管损失惨重，但亚马逊的股票市值仍高达数十亿美元，反映出投资者对行业未来的乐观态度。可知A项“可能在2001年盈利”正确；B项与原文不符；C项“亚马逊只卖书”与原文不符；D项表述错误，亚马逊的股票一直很稳健。

5.判断推理题。由最后一段“Internetretailingappealedtoinvestorsbecauseitprovidedefficientmeansforreachingmillionsofconsumerswithouthavingthecostofoperatingconventionalstoreswiththeirarmiesofsalespeople.互联网零售之所以吸引投资者，是因为它提供了一种有效的方式，可以接触到数以百万计的消费者，而无需花费经营传统商店的大量销售人员的成本。可知投资者对互联网零售感兴趣的原因是通过互联网能接触到很多消费者，并且能节省成本。故C项正确。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:D

第3题:D

第4题:A

【解析】1.判断推理题。由题干关键词“assumptionsaboutclock”定位到文章第一段“Allhedidwastobuildapendulumclockthatallowedpeople,forthefirsttimeinhistory,tokeeptrackofhoursandminutesaccurately.Yes,itwillgetalotofattentionaroundtheglobeonNewYear’sEve,butthatistheexception.”可知他只是建造了一个钟摆钟，使人们有史以来第一次能够准确地记录小时和分钟。在除夕夜，它会得到全世界的关注，但这是一件异常的事。可判断出时钟的普及和被关注是发明者未能预料的事情，故选项C符合题意。

2.判断推理题。由题干关键词“Switzerland，Brazil”定位到文章第二段“InSwitzerland,clocksaresloworfastbyanaverageofjust19seconds.InBrazil,onemanwasmorethanthreehoursoffwhenhetoldLevineitwas‘exactly2:14.’”，可知在瑞士，时钟的平均快慢只有19秒，而在巴西，有个人休息了三个多小时，但他却告诉莱文时间是2:14。下文继续列举了一系列一些例子，体现出不同国家的时间观念。可判断出作者列举瑞士和巴西的例子，是为了说明瑞士人相比巴西人有更强的时间观念。故选项D符合题意。

3.判断推理题。由A项“developingworld”定位到文章倒数第二段“Andclockworshipappearstobespreadingtothedevelopingworld，wherevendorshawkwatchesoncitystreets.”可知，对钟表的崇拜似乎正在向发展中国家蔓延，在那里，小贩们在城市街道上兜售手表。可判断出发展中国家的人越来越崇拜钟表，时间观念也越来越强。故选项A符合文意，可排除。B项文章没有提及，可排除。由C项“Mexico”定位到文章第一段“...showingupontimeiscauseforridiculeinMexico.”，可知在墨西哥，准时赴约会遭到人们的嘲笑。故选项C符合文意，可排除。由C项中的关键词“Burma”定位到原文第一段“MonksinBurmaknowitistimetogetupwhenthereisenoughlighttoseetheveinsintheirhands…”可知，对于缅甸的僧侣们来说，当有足够的光线看到他们手上的血管时，就该起床了。可判断出缅甸的时间观念并不强，也不是按照某个时间发生的时间来衡量时间的。故选项D符合题意。

4.判断推理题。由题干关键词“West”定位到文章倒数第三段“LevineseemstothinkthattheWestisbecomingmoredevotedtotheclockwitheachpassingminute.”可知Levine似乎认为，随着时间的流逝，西方国家对时钟的关注越来越多。第四段中也提及“InParis,youmightsetabusinessmeetingfor3p.m…”在法国巴黎，你可以把商务会议安排在下午三点。可判断出西方人是非常守时的，会按钟表的时间来办事。故选项A符合题意。

A.investmentA.投资

B.economyB.经济

C.technologyC.技术

D.taxD.税收

【考查点】事实细节题。

【解题思路】根据题干信息focusofthePresident’sprogram可定位到倒数第二段第一句，该处讲到“所以关键是技术，这也是总统项目的重点所在（thecruxisthetechnology）”因此C选项正确。

【干扰项排除】

A选项“投资”，是总统计划中涉及到的部分但并不是关键，属于本末倒置；

B选项“经济”，范围太广，太笼统；

D选项“税收”，是总统计划中的一部分但也不是关键，属于本末倒置。

2.【选项释义】

A.Theywantamoredirectaction.A.他们想要一个更直接的行动。

B.Theywantanincomespolicytocheckinflation.B.他们想要一个收入政策来遏制通货膨胀。

C.Theywanttorebuildindustry.C.他们想重建工业。

【考查点】事实细节题。

【解题思路】根据题干信息可定位到Para.1第四句，该处讲到“总统政党中最自由的一派呼吁采取更有力、更直接的行动（strongerandmoredirectaction）”。因此A选项正确。

【干扰项排除】

B选项“他们想要一个收入政策来遏制通货膨胀”，属于行动中的一部分，该选项以偏概全；

C选项“他们想重建工业”，属于行动中的一部分，该选项以偏概全；

D选项“他们想要保护性关税壁垒”也是该行动中的一部分，以偏概全。

3.【选项释义】

C.Disapproval.C.反对。

D.Compromise.D.妥协。

【考查点】观点态度题。

【解题思路】文中作者说到“如果一个行业不能把自己提升到技术进步的领先阶段，那么它就不能有效地竞争”。也就是说作者赞同新计划，发展新技术。同时他还强调了新技术在未来发展的作用。作者又提到“如果我们现在不能重组我们的经济，我们可能不会有第二次机会。”因此作者的态度应该是支持的。因此A选项正确。

【干扰项排除】

B“厌恶”、C“反对”、D“妥协”选项错误。

4.【选项释义】

A.thetwoparties’objectionA.双方的反对意见

【考查点】推理判断题。

【解题思路】根据题干信息dangertotheplan可定位到倒数第二段第二句，该处讲到“在于左右两派的理论家会通过修正来扭曲法案（distortthebillwithamendments）”。比对选项，D选项恰好是此信息的同义转换，因此D选项正确。

【干扰项排除】

A选项“双方的反对意见”，属于无中生有；

B选项“双方对这个计划有不同的看法”，属于无中生有；

C选项“它的通过”，文中明确提到“危险不在于一项计划不会被通过”，因此C选项为反向干扰。

5.【选项释义】

A.areview

A.一个回顾

B.aprefaceB.一个前言

C.anadvertisementC.一则广告

【考查点】推理判断题。

【解题思路】根据文章内容可知，该文章是作者对美国经济计划的客观描述。这是对大事件的报道。因此D选项正确。

【干扰项排除】

A选项“一个回顾”，指回想过去发生的事情。而该文章描述的是一个经济计划，因此属于无中生有；

B选项“一个前言”，指写在书或者文章前的序言或导言，该篇文章是一个陈述并非引导，属于无中生有；

C选项“一则广告”，广告应该要宣传什么，不符合文章内容，属于无中生有。
