【答案】66.predictions

67.lower

68.relatively

69.signal

70.ignored

【解析】66.考查上下文语境。根据Theplanethasn’tbeenwarmingasmuchasclimatemodelspredicted（地球并没有像气候模型预测的那样变暖）中的predicted可知此处应该是predictions.句意：《自然》杂志上发表的一项新研究表明，小型火山爆发可能是全球变暖速度没有跟上之前预测的一致的部分原因。

67.考查句子结构和语法。空格处应该填入一个形容词。选项中能与atmosphere搭配的形容词是lower，influenceonthetemperatureoftheEarth’ssurfaceandloweratmosphere（对地球表面和低层大气的温度的影响）符合句意。

68.考查句子结构和语法。空格处应该填入一个程度副词修饰little表示“相当小”。根据句子Inthepast,researchersobservedincreasesinlevelsofgreenhousegasesandinglobalwarning,butforthepast15yearstheEarth’ssurfacetemperatureshaveshown…littlewarming.（在过去，研究人员观察到温室气体水平的增加和全球变暖，但在过去的15年里，地球表面的温度几乎没有显示出相当小的变暖迹象），可知应该填入relatively程度副词。

69.考查句子结构和语法。前面有不定冠词a和形容词clear,此处应该填入一个单数名词，选项里面只有signal符合。句意：我们所展示的是，即使没有任何计算机模型计算，也有明确的信号表明，这些早期的火山活动对温度和大气反射的阳光产生了影响。

70.

考查句子结构和语态。根据hasbeenlargely…by判断，这里是一个被动语态，需要填动词的过去分词，选项里面只有ignored是过去分词。句意：到目前为止，这种降温效应在很大程度上一直被气候科学家所忽视。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:B

第4题:C

第5题:A

【解析】第1题:推理判断题。通过列举了舞台的例子，作者强调了配角和剧中布景的重要性，结合下文Boththefamilyandthesocietyinwhichexceptionalchildrenliveareoftenthekeytotheirgrowthanddevelopment（特殊儿童所生活的家庭和社会往往是他们成长和发展的关键）可知，对特殊儿童而言，家庭和社会环境也是很重要的，因此D选项“说明环境的重要性，如家庭和社会”正确。

第2题:推理判断题。由第三段第三句Thegreatinterestinexceptionalchildrenshowninpubliceducationoverthepastthreedecadesindicatesthestrongfeelinginoursocietythatallcitizens,whatevertheirspecialconditions,deservetheopportunitytofullydeveloptheircapabilities（在过去的30年中，公共教育对特殊儿童的极大兴趣表明了我们社会中的一种强烈想法，那就是所有的公民，无论其情况有多特殊，都应享有充分发展其能力的机会）可推断出B选项“特殊儿童也应该开发他们的潜能的信念”符合题意。

第3题:事实细节题。需注意题干中的NOT，因此要找出文中没有提及的措施。由第四段第五句Recentcourtdecisionshaveconfirmedtherightofallchildren—disabledornot—toanappropriateeducation,andhaveorderedthatpublicschoolstakethenecessarystepstoprovidethateducation（最近的法院判决确认了所有儿童，无论残疾与否，都有接受适当教育的权利，并命令公立学校采取必要措施提供这种教育）可排除A选项和C选项；由本文最后一句Inresponse,schoolsaremodifyingtheirprogram,adaptinginstructiontochildrenwhoareexceptional,tothosewhocannotprofitsubstantiallyfromregularprograms（作为回应，学校正在调整课程，使教学能够适应特殊儿童，那些不能从常规课程中真正获益的儿童的需要）可排除D选项，因此B选项为正确答案。

第4题:语义推测题。根据上下文可知，学校正在调整课程，以适应特殊儿童的需要，因此可以推断出，常规课程是不足以应对特殊儿童的，substantially应为“足够的”，C选项符合题意。

第5题:主旨大意题。解题关键句通常在第一段或最后一段，由第一段第二句Forthesechildrentodeveloptotheirfulladultpotential,theireducationmustbeadaptedtothosedifferences（为了让这些孩子充分发展他们成年后的潜能，他们的教育必须适应这些差异）可知A选项“使教育适应残疾儿童的必要性”为正确答案。

问题1选项

A.doubtfully

B.adequately

C.presumably

【答案】C

【解析】句意:鉴于此次调研项目的完全失败，他很有可能会辞职。

考查副词辨析。doubtfully怀疑地，含糊地；adequately足够地，适当地;presumably据推测，可能；reasonably明辨道理地，合理地，有理性地。根据此句“鉴于此次调研项目的完全失败”推测C项符合句意。

11.单选题

Sheisavery（

）student.She’salwaystalkingabouttravelingtoouterspace.

问题1选项

A.imaginary

B.imaginative

C.imaginable

D.imagining

【答案】B

【解析】考查形似形容词词义辨析。imaginary“虚构的，假想的”；imaginative“富于想象的，有创造力的”；imaginable“可能的，可想象的”；imagining是image的动名词形式。句意：她是一个富有想象力的学生。她总是谈论关于在外太空漫游的事。选项B符合题意。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:C

第4题:D

第5题:D

【解析】1.语义推测题。根据第一段第一句Birdsthatareliterallyhalf-asleep—withonebrainhemispherealertandtheothersleep—controlwhichsideofthebrainremainsawake,accordingtoanewstudyofsleepingducks.（根据一项对睡着的鸭子的最新研究，鸟类处于半睡眠状态，其中一个脑半球保持警戒，另一个脑半球用来睡觉——或者控制这一侧大脑保持清醒。），可知鸟类可以控制自己的睡眠，所以C选项“鸟类可以有意识地控制他们的半脑睡眠”正确。A选项“发现半脑睡眠出现在很多鸟类身上”，B选项“半脑睡眠的特点是脑电波缓慢”和D选项“鸟类很少在休息的时候用整个大脑睡觉”：根据第二段第一句Earlierstudieshavedocumentedhalf-brainsleepinawiderangeofbirds.（早期的研究已经记录了很多鸟类的半脑睡眠。），可知这是早期研究的结果，故错误。推测因此C选项正确。

2.事实细节题。根据第六段第一句single-hemispheresleepevolvedascreaturesscannedforenemies（动物在观察周围以提防敌人时进化出了半脑睡眠），可知动物因为要提防敌人保护自己而发展出来半脑睡眠，所以A选项“他们必须提防可能的攻击”正确。B选项“他们的大脑半球轮流休息”：这是半脑睡眠带来的影响和好处，而非原因，故错误。C选项“他们的大脑的两个半球是不同的结构”：文章没有提到鸟类的脑部结构是怎样的，故错误。D选项“他们必须时刻注意他们的同伴”：这属于半脑睡眠运用的地方和体现，而非原因，故错误。因此A选项正确。

3.推理判断题。根据第六段最后一句Themirror-sideeyeclosedasifthereflectionwereacompanionandtheothereyestayedopen.（镜子那边的那只眼睛闭上了，好像镜子里的那只眼睛是同伴，而另一只眼睛则一直睁开着。），可知即使没有真正的同伴在，鸟儿也会视镜子中的自己为同伴，不一定非得要和同伴一起睡觉，结合鸟类的半脑睡眠是因为保护自己，所以C选项“即使是一个想象中的同伴也会给鸟一种安全感”正确，B选项“为了安全起见，鸟儿喜欢成对睡觉”和D选项“一只宠物鸟喜欢看到自己在镜子里的倒影”错误。A选项“鸟儿成对打瞌睡的现象很普遍”：没有提到，故错误。因此C选项正确。

4.事实细节题。根据第七段最后一句Perhapskeepingonesideofthebrainawakeallowsasleepinganimaltosurfaceoccasionallytoavoiddrowning.（也许保持一侧大脑清醒可以让睡着的动物偶尔浮出水面，以避免溺水。），可知一些水生哺乳动物为了在睡着时保持安全而发展出半睡眠状态，所以D选项“避免被急流冲走”正确。A选项“警惕接近的敌人”，B选项“偶尔从水里冒出来呼吸”和C选项“感知不断变化的环境”没有提到，故错误。因此D选项正确。

5.语义推测题。根据第八段最后一句Hespeculatesthatmoreexamplesmayturnupwhenwetakeacloserlookatotherspecies.（他推测，当我们进一步观察其他物种时，可能会发现更多的例子。），可知JeromeM.Siegel认为半脑睡眠可能也存在于其他生物，所以D选项“半脑睡眠是一种可能存在于其他物种中的现象”正确。A选项“半脑睡眠与寒冷天气有关”和C选项“大多数生活在寒冷地区的鸟类往往是半睡眠者”：这里的冰山一角和天气寒冷无关，故错误。B选项“半脑睡眠之谜即将被破解”：文章没有提到破解谜题，并且这还需要进一步研究，故错误。因此D选项正确。

D.“we”arenottotallyinstocks

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:C

第4题:C

【解析】1.细节事实题。题目问的是“根据现代资产组合理论，我们应该……”。文章第八段提到“这在很大程度上取决于资产的分散性和你打算持有多久。这些是现在资产组合理论的关键部分”（Andthatdepends——toasurprisinglylargedegree——onhowdiversifieditisandhowlongyou'repreparedtostaythecourse.Thesearekeyelementsof“modernportfoliotheory”…），可知强调的是多样性，而不是“单个”，因此选项A可以排除；文章第十段提到“为了让它（投资组合）起作用，你需要拥有不同类型且不同步变化的资产，并且你还需要对资产进行预估”（Tomakeitwork,youneedtoownassetclassesthatdon’tmoveinlockstep,makeaccurateestimatesoftheirfuturereturns,anduseaverylongtimehorizon），因此选项D中的atthesamepace错误，可以排除；文章第九段rebalancetheportfolio,第十二段提到“平衡投资组合包括出售一些盈利的资产，买入更多亏损的资产类别”（Byrebalancingtheirportfoliosperiodicallysellingoffsomeofthewinningassetclassesandbuyingmoreofthelosers），因此选项B错误。综上，选项C符合题意。

2.推理判断题。题目问的是“我们从最后一段的这句话中了解到了什么？”文章最后一句提到“实际上，在上世纪90年代的繁荣时期，该基金表现明显滞后，导致这十年的平均年回报率落后于标准普尔500指数4个百分点”（Indeed,thefundlaggedsignificantlyduringtheboomyearsofthe1990s,causingaverageannualreturnsforthedecadetotrailtheS&P500byfourpercentagepoints），由此可以推断在90年代股市暴涨在基金中不明显，因此选项A符合题意。

3.观点态度题。题目问的是“对于传统资产组合，作者是何种态度？”文章第六段提问道“传统的资产组合真的像专家们所说的那样安全吗？”下文对此进行解答，因此选项C“客观的”符合题意。skeptical“怀疑的”；scathing“严厉的”；boastful“自夸的，自负的”。

4.推理判断题。题目问的是“我们从倒数第二段的这句话中了解到以下信息，除了……”该句出现在倒数第二段最后一句话，意思是“如果股票像90年代那样行情火爆，那么很明显，我们的运作将会差于一般市场价格，因为我们不会完全投资于股市”，“90年代股票市场繁荣”“‘我们’在90年代运作不佳”“‘我们’没有完全投资于股市”均在句子中体现了，只有C选项没有体现，因此该选项符合题意。

D.which

【答案】C

【解析】考查定语从句。句意：碎冰通常用于肿胀的伤口，以清除组织中产生的多余热量。从句意来看，从句是为了修饰injuries“伤口”这个名词，所以后面是定语从句。定语从句中that前面不能接介词，所以排除A，B；which引导定语从句时，先行词在从句中作主语，宾语或者表语，而从句不缺成分，所以排除D，答案选C。
