【答案】人们今天对克隆所表现出的非理性恐惧与50年前人们对机器人表现出的恐惧类似。因此我提出三个关于克隆的观点来澄清三个误解:1、克隆人也是人,他的个性就像同卵孪生子一样。2、克隆人拥有与这种法律和道德地位伴随的所有权利和特权。3、克隆人应该被给予应有的尊严和尊重,就像你对待其它成员一样。尽管这类简化冒着消除有关前沿研究的道德争论的复杂性,但是的确有助于减少有关的荒谬的恐惧。

第3题:B
第4题:C
第5题:C
第6题:D
第7题:C
第8题:A
【解析】1.【试题解析】主旨大意题。文章主要讲的是各领域的收费服务网站兴起,使得越来越多的专业人士通过网络赚钱。故B项“越来越多的人利用他们的专业在网络上赚钱”比较符合文章大意。
2.【试题解析】细节事实题。第二段指出:Ms.Estesappliedtobecomean“expert”onLivePersonInC.aWebsitewhereclientspayforonlinechattimewithprofessionalsandadvisersofallfields.(埃斯特斯申请成为LivePersonInc.的一名“专家”,这是一家客户付费与各领域专业人士和顾问在线聊天的网站)。因此D项“客户为与专业人士的在线交流时间而付费”正确。
3.【试题解析】细节事实题。第四段指出:Labor-at-the-keyboardsitesaregainingpopularityaspeopleincreasinglyturntotheWebinsearchofwork.(随着人们不断转向网络找工作,键盘劳动力网站越来越受欢迎)。因此B项“因为更多的人在网上找工作”正确。
4.【试题解析】判断推理题。第七段指出:Thesitetakesacommissionofbetween30%and35%(网站收取30%到35%的佣金)。由此可算出,如果客户支付10美元,网站抽取佣金3—3.5美元,专家将获得6.5—7美元,故选C。
5.【试题解析】细节事实题。第十五段指出:Thesite—namedforan18th-centurystuntinvolvingaturbanedchess-playing“machine”withanactualchessmasterhiddenwithin—beganasawaytohelpAmazonmanageitsproductdatabase,saysSharonChiarella,vicepresidentofAmazonMechanicalTurk.(亚马逊土耳其机器人的副总裁SharonChiarella说:这个网站——为一个18世纪的噱头命名,涉及一个包着头巾的会下国际象棋的“机器”,里而隐藏着一个真正的国际象棋大师——一开始是作为一种帮助亚马逊管理其产品数据库的方法)。因此C项“帮助亚马逊管理其产品数据库”正确。
6.【试题解析】细节事实题。倒数第四段指出:MechanicalTurkusershaveanindependentsitecalledTurkerNation(),whichreviewsthecompaniesthatsolicit(索求)andpayfortaskssothatworkerscancheckacompany’srecordbeforetakingonatask.(MechanicalTurk用户有一个独立的网站叫土耳其国家(),该网站评估索求的公司和支付任务,这样员工可以在接受任务之前检查公司的记录)。因此,D项正确。
7.【试题解析】细节事实题。倒数第二段指出:Ms.KnutsonnowspendsthemajorityofhertimetranscribingWebaudioandvideoforclients,earningabout$250aweekfor30hoursofwork.(克努森女士现在花大部分的时间为客户转录网络音频和视频,一周工作30个小时赚取约250美元)。因此,C项“为客户转录网络音频和视频”正确。
8.【试题解析】主旨大意题。文章主要讲的是各领域的收费服务网站兴起,使得越来越多的专业人士通过网络赚钱。因此,A项“在线专家”比较适合做文章标题。

【答案】第1题:C
第2题:D
第3题:B
第4题:C
第5题:B
【解析】1.细节事实题。根据题干关键词taboo定位至第二段:Perhapsthemostinterestingthingaboutthephenomenonoftaboobehaviorishowitcanchangeovertheyearswithinthesamesociety,howcertainbehaviorandattitudeonceconsideredtaboocanbecomeperfectlyacceptableandnaturalatanotherpointintime(或许,关于禁忌行为现象最有趣的一个事情是,它多年来如何能在同样的社会里发生变化和曾经被认为是禁忌的某些行为或观点如何能在另外—个时间点变得完全被接受和正常)。由此可知C项“不被公众接受的行为”正确。
2.判断推理题。第二段指出:Perhapsthemostinterestingthingaboutthephenomenonoftaboobehaviorishowitcanchangeovertheyearswithinthesamesociety,howcertainbehaviorandattitudeonceconsideredtaboocanbecomeperfectlyacceptableandnaturalatanotherpointintime(或许,关于禁忌行为现象最有趣的一个事情是,它多年来如何能在同样的社会里发生变化和曾经被认为是禁忌的某些行为或观点如何能在另外一个时间点变得完全被接受和正常)。由此推测D项“总有一天不再是禁忌”正确。
3.细节事实题。根据题干关键词Thetopicoffat定位至第三段:Unlikemanyothertaboos,fatisatopicthatAmericanstalkaboutconstantly(不同于其他禁忌,人们经常会谈到与肥胖有关的事情)。因此B项“不同于”正确。
4.语义题。根据题干关键词thinis“in”,andfatis“out”定位至第三段:Thethinlookisassociatedwithyouth,vigor,andsuccess.Thefatperson,ontheotherhand,isthoughtofaslazyandlackinginenergy,self-discipline,andself-respectInanimage-conscioussocietyliketheU.S.,thinis“in”,fatis“out”(苗条的身材让人联想到年轻,活力和成功。另一方面,肥胖的人被认为是懒惰或缺乏活力、自我约束和自尊。在一个注重外表的国家,比如美国,苗条意味着…,而肥胖意味着…)。根据句意推测,“in”和“out”分别表示“年轻,活力和成功”和“懒惰或缺乏活力、自我约束和自尊”,故C项“瘦就是青春,胖就是缺乏活力”正确。
5.细节事实题。根据题干关键词healthandexercise和themainreason定位至最后一段:Thepursuitofayouthfulphysicalappearanceisnot,however,thesolereasonforAmericans'fascinationwithdietandexercise(然而,对年轻外表的追求,不仅仅是因为美国人对节食和身体锻炼的热衷),由此可知B项“对保持苗条和青春的追求”正确。
6.单选题
Thegovernmenthaslicensedthiscompanytoproduceweapons.
问题1选项
A.suddenlyhired
B.recentlyfounded
C.legallypermitted
D.scarcelypurchased
【答案】C
【解析】考查副词和动词辨析。A选项suddenlyhired“突然雇佣”;B选项recentlyfounded“最近发现”;C选项legallypermitted“法律上允许”;D选项scarcelypurchased“很少购买”。句意:政府已经批准这家公司生产武器。划线部分licensed是批准的意思。因此C选项正确。
7.单选题
Duringtheirfistteachertrainingyear,thestudentsoftenvisitedlocalschoolsforthe
(
)oflessons.
问题1选项
A.observation
B.investigation
C.inspection
D.examination
【答案】A
【解析】考查名词词义辨析。observation“观察,监视”;investigation“调查”;inspection“视察,检查”;examination“考试”。句意:这些学生在第一年教师培训期的时候,经常去一些当地学校观摩。选项A符合题意。
8.单选题
Thebruntoftheattacksuponthiscommanderwasbornebyhisyoungerbrother.ScarcelyhadthesmokebeenclearedfromthebattlegroundsofNankingwhenvoicesarosemaligningtheyoungergovernorwhohaderredinreportingtothethronethedeathofhissuccessor.
问题1选项
A.backbiting
B.gossipingabout
C.spreadingrumors
D.slandering
【答案】C
【解析】考查动词词义辨析。A选项backbiting“诽谤;中伤”;B选项gossipingabout“闲聊……”;C选项spreadingrumors“散布谣言”;D选项slandering“诽谤”;根据题目中的“voicesarose”可知这个声音就是指的后面的内容,malign本意指的是“诽谤某人”,而在此处,题中的意思是“所出现的关于州长的谣言”。所以答案为C“传播谣言”。句意:非难指挥官的后果由他的弟弟承担了。诽谤年轻的州长在向君王报告他的继承人的死讯时犯错了的谣言一出现时,南京战场的硝烟便难以消散了。因此C选项正确。
9.单选题
Ifyouwanttokeepyourjobhere,youwillhavetobe()oflongworkinghoursandlowsalary.
问题1选项
A.tolerant
B.tolerable
C.bearable
D.tolerate
【答案】A
【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项tolerant“忍受的,有忍耐力的”;B选项tolerable“可容忍的,容许的”;C选项bearable“承受得住的”;D选项tolerate是动词“忍受”。句意:如果你想保住你在这里的工作,你就得忍受长时间工作,拿低工资。根据空格有一个be动词,可知空格处应填形容词,排除D,根据句意理解,本句表达的是忍受,而不是可容性或承受力,所以A选项符合句意。因此A选项正确。
10.单选题
HeradvisorpersuadedhertoremainatNanjingUniversitytodoherdoctorate,butshedecidedtoapplytothepostgraduatedivisionoftheChineseAcademyofSciencesinstead.
问题1选项
A.persuaded
B.todoherdoctorate
C.applyto
D.oftheChineseAcademyofSciencesinstead.
E.没有问题
【答案】C
【解析】固定短语误用。applyto改为applyfor。applyto适用于…,应用于…。applyfor申请,请求。题干意思事"申请中国科学院的研究生”,故需要改为applyfor。
11.单选题
Thejudgedoesn’tknowwhetherthewitnessistellingthetruth,buthewill(
)it.
问题1选项
A.identify
B.enforce
C.distinguish
D.verify
【答案】D
【解析】【试题解析】考查动词辨析。A选项identify“认出,鉴定”,多用于在众多物品中选出某一特定物品;B选项enforce“强迫,强化”;C选项distinguish“区别,辨别”;D选项verify“证实,查证,核实”。本句是but连接两个并列句子,根据前面的意思“法官不知道证人说的是否是真话”,推测后面空格部分填入的动词意思应该是“证实,证明”,

【答案】第1题:A
第2题:C
第3题:D
第4题:A
第5题:B
【解析】1.推理判断题。题目问的是“作者使用‘目光短浅’时,她正在说……”。文章第三段提到“我们在语言和文化上的近视眼以及不注意去留意他国的爱好,习惯,习俗和语言正让我们在世界上失去朋友,业务及尊重”(Ourlinguisticandculturalnearsightednessandthecasualnesswithwhichwetakenotice—whenwedoofthedevelopedtastes,mannerisms,customsandlanguagesofothercountries,arelosingusfriends,businessandrespectintheworld),选项A“比喻地”符合题意。
2.推理判断题。题目问的是“文章告诉我们……”。文章第三段提到“我们在语言和文化上的近视眼以及不注意去留意他国的爱好,习惯,习俗和语言正让我们在世界上失去朋友,业务及尊重”(Ourlinguisticandculturalnearsightednessandthecasualnesswithwhichwetakenotice—whenwedoofthedevelopedtastes,mannerisms,customsandlanguagesofothercountries,arelosingusfriends,businessandrespectintheworld),说明美国人不注重别国的习俗,选项C符合题意。
3.推理判断题。题目问的是“我们能从文章中得出……”文章最后一段提到过去美国人习惯忽视他国的语言和文化,因为那个时候美国很强大。但是已经是过去时了,我们应该意识到我们在世界上的独特作用正在改变(Butallthatispast.Weareslowlybeginningtorealizethatourproperroleintheworldischanging),说明现在美国不应该像以前那样忽视他国的语言和文化,选项D“美国人不应该忽视他国的文化”符合题意。
4.细节事实题。题目问的是“根据作者的描述,下列哪项陈述是不真实的”。文章第二段提到“给二战后占领德国的美国军队寄送包裹的美国人为了避税而在包裹上标示‘GIFT’”,而不愿麻烦去发现‘GIFT’在德语中是“毒药”的意思(ThosePrivatecitizenswhosentpackagestoourtroopsoccupyingGermanyafterW.W.IIandmarkedthemGIFTtoescapedutypaymentsdidnotbothertofindoutthatGIFTmeanspoisoninGerman),由此可知选项A的描述是不真实的,是美国人为了避税错把GIFT(毒药)当GIFT(礼物),符合题意。
5.推理判断题。题目问的是“作者可能是哪个国家的人”。文章使用的是第一人称,文章多次用“ourheritageandourculture”或者“weareslowlybeginningtorealize…”可以推测作者最有可能是美国人。选项B符合题意。
