B.wring

C.induce

D.infect

【答案】C

2.单选题

问题1选项

A.Onlyafter

B.Unless

C.Nowthat

D.Aslongas

连词辨析。Onlyafter仅仅等…才…;Unless除非,如果不;nowthat既然,由于;aslongas只要。故B符合句意。

3.单选题

Hisideasareinvariablycondemnedas（

）byhiscolleagues.

问题1选项

A.imaginative

B.ingenious

C.impractical

D.denied

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。imaginative“富于想象力的，有创造力的”；ingenious“有独创性的，机灵的”；impractical“不切实际的”；denied“否定”。由“condemned谴责”可知此空应填贬义词，故C项符合题意。句意：他的想法总是被同事们指责为不切实际。

22.WhatdoesthespeakersayabouttheAmericandollarbill?

【试题答案】B

【试题解析】题目问关于美元纸币，说话人说了什么？说话人说到，很少人能准确地描述（美元纸币）这一世界上最有影响力、最重要的货币。B选项中的describeitprecisely是录音原文中accuratelydescribe的同义替换，因此B选项“很少有人能准确地描述它”正确。A选项“很少有人能辨别它的质地”表述错误，录音中提及很多人能通过美元纸币的声音或质感（texture）辨别美元；C选项“美元的实际价值有待商榷”和D选项“它的重要性经常被高估”在录音中均没有信息提及，因此排除。

23.WhatdoesthespeakersayabouttheexactcompositionoftheAmericandollarbill?

【试题答案】C

【试题解析】题目问关于美元纸币具体的物质成分，说话人说了什么？说话人指出，美元纸币纸和墨的成分，是美国政府严格保守的秘密，C选项“这是政府严格保守的秘密”与原文表述一致，因此正确。A选项“它从来都没改变过”，录音中并没有讨论美元纸币物质成分的变化，因此可排除；B选项“它和颜色的关联很大”，录音中没有表明美元纸币的物质成分与颜色有关，因此可排除；D选项“它是许多伪造者研究的课题”录音中没有信息提及，因此可排除。

24.WhydidthenewAmericangovernmentmintonlycoinsforcommoncurrency?

【试题答案】A

【试题解析】题目问为什么新美国政府只用硬币作为流通的货币？录音提到，美国宪法签署生效的当时，人们并不尊重纸币，由于民众不信任纸币，新政府就只用硬币作为流通的货币，A选项“人们不太相信纸币”符合录音原文，因此正确。B选项“硬币在流通中可以使用得更久”；C选项“新美国政府预测硬币的价值会上涨”和D选项“硬币更难伪造”在录音中均没有信息提及，因此排除。

25.WhathavegenerationsofAmericanpoliticiansarguedfor?

【试题答案】C

【试题解析】题目问几代美国政客一直以来都在争论什么？录音提到，美国政客几代人以来都在讨论赞不赞成为美国货币设立金本位制。因此C选项“美国货币的金本位制”正确。A选项“美元价值的稳定”和B选项“政府证券的发行”在录音中虽有信息提及，但它们均不是美国政客几代人一直在讨论的问题；D选项“美元的稳定升值”在录音中没有信息提及，因此排除。

47.______________

48.______________

49.______________

50.______________

51.______________

52.______________

53.______________

54.______________

55.______________

【答案】46.in改为at

47.grammars改为grammar

48.去掉more

49.such改成so

50.and改成or

51.form改为forming

52.others改为another

53.people和speak间加上who

54.receive改为accept

55.if改成when

【解析】46.考查固定搭配。表示擅长的短语搭配为begoodat，句中说的是有些人会更擅长。因此需要使用good的比较级形式better。句意：有些人似乎更擅长学习语言。

47.考查词汇的单复数含义。grammar为不可数名词时表示“语法，文法”，而其复数形式grammars表示“语言知识及应用能力”。句意：他们可以学习新的词汇，掌握规则或语法。句中指的是语法，为不可数名词，不能使用复数形式。

48.考查比较级的用法。bright是单音节形容词。它的比较级为brighter，more是用来修饰三个音节及以上的形容词的比较级的，故应删掉。句意：他们似乎并不比其他人更聪明。

49.考查such与so的辨析。such是形容词，用来修饰名词；so是副词，用来修饰形容词或副词。后面的easier是形容词，故应使用so来修饰。句意：那么是什么让语言对他们来说如此容易呢？

50.考查连接词的使用。and和or都能够表示并列，and用在肯定句和陈述句中，or用在否定句和疑问句中。在句中前面有表否定的not，故连接的使用应该用or。句意：他们不依赖书本老师；他们发现自己学习语言的方法。

51.考查并列句中的谓语一致。and前面使用的是现在分词作定语修饰guessers，后面句中的谓语动词也应该与之保持一致。故应将form改为forming。句意：他们是很好的猜测者，能找到困难的线索并形成自己的结论。

52.考查介词辨析。others表示其他人。another做介词时可表示再一，又一次的意思。根据句意：当他们猜错的时候，他们会再猜一次。因此需将others改为another。

53.考查句子成分。Theyfindpeoplespeakthelanguageandaskthemtocorrectthemwhentheymakeamistake.根据句子结构可知speakthelanguage是定语从句修饰people，而people在从句中担当主语，因此关系代词who不能省略。句意：他们找到说这种语言的人，当他们说错时请这些人纠正。

54.考查动词辨析。receive“收到”表达较为客观被动。accept“接受”具有主观色彩，主动的去接。句意：当交流有困难的时候，他们也能接纳不准确或者不完整的信息。交流的时候他们会主动地去接受一些不完整的信息。因此需要将receive改成accept。

55.考查连接词的使用。根据先前所说的当他们猜错的时候，他们会再猜一次。使用的就是时间状语，那么在他们遇到acommunicationisdifficult的情况的时候，也应该作为时间状语，故应使用when连接而非if。

6.单选题

Fivescoreyearsago,agreatAmerican,______symbolicshadowwestand,signedtheEmancipationProclamation.

问题1选项

A.withhis

B.byhim

C.inwhose

D.ofwhom

【答案】C

【解析】【选项释义】

A.withhis和他的B.byhim通过他

C.inwhose在谁的D.ofwhom谁的

【考查点】非限制性定语从句的用法。

【解题思路】由句子可知，主谓宾结构完整，所以中间部分是非限制性定语从句，修饰前面的agreatAmerican（一位伟大的美国人），所以空格处的引导词只能用who,whom或whose，而symbolicshadow（象征的影像）与agreatAmerican（一位伟大的美国人）是所属关系，所以只能用whose。因此，该题选择C项正确。

【干扰项排除】

A、B选项不符合句子结构；

D选项关系代词whom使用不正确。

【句意】在一百年以前，有位伟大的美国人签署了奴隶解放宣言，而今天我们正是立足于他所象征的影像下。

7.单选题

（

）thatmanyanimalsseemtobehighlysensitivetovarioussignalsassociatedwithearthquakes,thebasicquestionremainsofhowthisbehaviorcanbeputtouseinearthquakeprediction.

问题1选项

A.Considering

B.Provided

C.Granted

D.Assuming

【答案】C

【解析】动词词义辨析题。A选项的consideringthat“鉴于……，就……而论，考虑到”;B选项的providedthat“如果，条件是，倘若”；C选项的grantedthat“即使，假定”;D选项的assumingthat“假定”。根据句意‘即使许多动物似乎对于地震有关的各种信号具有高度的敏感性，根本问题仍然是如何能将此习性在预报地震中加以运用’确定C选项正确。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:C

第3题:C

第4题:D

第5题:D

【解析】1.细节理解题。根据文章第四段，“Thedebatehassplittheastronomicalcommunityfordecades.”，对冥王星的定位问题，几十年来争论一直存在于天文界。所以天文学家对冥王星的地位意见不一。选项C符合题意。

2.细节理解题。根据文章第二段，“however,scientistsreleasedperhapsthemostconvincingevidenceyetthatPluto,infact,isnotaplanetatall.Forthefirsttime,astronomershavepeeredintoabeltofrocksbeyondPlutounknownuntil10yearsago—andfoundaworldthatrivalsPlutoinsize.”，可知，科学家发现了能够证明冥王星不是行星的证据，天文学家直到十年前观察了冥王星以外的岩石带，发现了一个大小和冥王星差不多的世界。根据文章第四段，“EvenbeforethedistantbandofrocksknownastheKuiperBeltwasfound”，可知这些岩石带是被叫做凯伯带。所以在凯伯岩石带被发现的时候，就产生了怀疑。选项C符合题意。

3.推断题。根据文章第七段一二句，“Tosome,theproblemisnotwithPluto,butthedefinitionof“planet.”Inshort，thereisnone.”，可知问题不在于冥王星，而是对于行星的定义，反正没人能说得清楚，可推测对“行星”这一词汇还没有科学的定义。选项C符合题意。

4.推断题。根据文章第一段，“Plutohasneverreallyfittedin…itislittlemorethanacosmicdustmite,sweptthroughthefarthestreachesofthesolarsystemonaplanetwildlytiltedrelativetotherestoftheplanets.ItissmallerthanNeptune’slargestmoon,andthearcofitsorbitissooval...”，可知人们把冥王星看作一个奇怪的行星的原因有：横扫太阳系最远的地方、比海王星最大的卫星要小、轨道是椭圆形的。所以并没有提到它是由冰和尘埃组成，选项D符合题意。

5.词义题。根据文章第八段，“demotingPluto,lumpingitwiththeKuiperBeltobjectsinitshugemobileofthesolarsystem.”，海顿天文馆是把冥王星降级，把它归类为太阳系中库伯带小星体。根据文章最后一段，“TheynotethatPluto,infact,isdistinctfrommanyKuiperBeltobjects.”，可知他们发现冥王星与库伯带小行星中的很多星体又有明显的不同。所以海顿天文馆的这一举动引来了更多的困惑和混乱。选项D符合题意。

9.单选题

【解题思路】重金属会对儿童的认知发展产生伤害，儿童的体型和……比起成年人能吸收更多的重金属物质，所以他们特别危险。根据句意可知儿童的体型和抵抗力都比较弱，所以才会比成年人更容易吸收重金属物质，所以B选项“抵挡力，阻力”符合题意

【干扰项排除】A、C、D选项不符合句意。

【句意】重金属会对儿童的认知发展产生伤害，儿童的体型和抵抗力比起成年人能吸收更多的重金属物质，所以他们特别危险。

A.how...why

B.why...how

C.when...Why

D.where...how

【答案】B

【解析】语法题。how表方式，why表原因，when表时间，where表地点，根据题意，他知道她存在的原因和意义，可知第一空填why。句意：一个人如果意识到他对一个深情地等待着他的人所承担的责任，他就不能抛弃自己的生命。因为他会意识到自己存在的原因，并且能够承受未来的一切。选项B符合题意。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:A

第5题:B

【解析】31.【试题答案】C

【试题解析】主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍了统计学的诞生，接着介绍了两种统计方法：描述性统计和推断性统计可以解决的问题，说明本文主要讲的是统计学的发展和应用。因此C选项“统计学的发展和使用”正确。A选项“描述性统计和推断性统计的缺点”，原文只介绍了这两者的由来，没有介绍它们的缺点，所以A错误。B选项“推断性统计的应用”，D选项“如何使用描述性统计”，原文介绍了描述性统计和推断性统计两者的应用，所以B，D错误。

32.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】客观细节题。由题干关键词“countinganddescribing”可以定位到文章第一段第三句Theinfluenceofthemotherontheoffspring,statistics,isrepresentedbycounting,measuring,describing,tabulating,ordering,andthetakingofcensuses,allofwhichledtomoderndescriptivestatistics.（“母亲”对其后代统计学的影响表现在计数、测量、描述、制表、归类和人口普查，所有这些导致了现代描述统计学的诞生。），说明计数和描述与描述性统计学相关。因此B选项“描述性统计”正确。A选项“推断性统计”，C选项“未知变量”，D选项“质变”均不符合题意，所以A，C，D错误。

33.【试题答案】D

【试题解析】推理判断题。第一段中提到“母亲”和“父亲”用来说明统计学的诞生和起源，运用拟人的手法使文章更加生动幽默，有助于读者理解。因此D选项“以幽默、易懂的方式介绍统计学的背景”正确。A选项“指出父母可以教孩子统计”，B选项“为了介绍推断性统计”，C选项“说明变量有不同的种类”均不符合题意，所以A，B，C错误。

34.【试题答案】A

【试题解析】客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第二段最后一句Descriptivestatisticsisatoolfordescribingorsummarizing,orreducingtocomprehensibleformthepropertiesofanotherwiseunwieldymassofdata.（描述性统计是一种工具，它对极其庞杂的数据进行描述、概括或简化，使之成为可理解的东西。），说明描述性统计可以将庞杂的数据简单化。因此A选项“简化了繁杂的大量数据”正确。B选项“导致了变异性的增加”，C选项“可以解决所有的数值问题”，D选项“把定性变量变为定量变量”在文中均没有提及，所以B，C，D错误。

35.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第三段最后一句Thus,thepurposeofinferentialstatisticsistopredictorestimatecharacteristicsofapopulationfromaknowledgeofthecharacteristicsofonlyasampleofthepopulation.（因此，推理性统计的目的就是通过了解整个群体中一部分样本的特征，来预测和估计整个群体的特征。），说明考察样本目的是预测和估计整个群体的特征。因此B选项“预测整个群体的特征”正确。A选项“为了比较不同的群体”，C选项“考虑所有的定量变量”，D选项“将数据集合制成表格”在文中均没有提及，所以A，C，D错误。

D.Whatabout

【答案】B

【解析】考查词义辨析与条件状语从句。Assumingly的动词原形是assume，放在句首表示疑问“假定，假使”；A项if“如果”，一般用法为ifthat+从句；B项whatif“假使……将会怎么样”，用法为whatif+主语+谓语；C项when“何时”，引导时间状语从句；D项whatabout“怎么样”，引导特殊疑问句。句意：假如他不同意我们的建议，那我们下一步怎么办？根据句意可知，该题选择B项正确。

16.翻译题

当你站在一件艺术品面前时，技术便会帮你找到有关这一艺术品某一方面的更多信息。比如在鉴定艺术品的年代和出处方面，技术将具有极大价值。我们可以运用越来越客观的标准来鉴定纸张、颜料、化学品等的年代，这样将会有令人震惊的事情发生，例如突然发现一件伟大作品竟然是赝品。当然，艺术品市场自身将继续随着供求关系而浮动，但是在英国，我希望博物馆和美术馆有朝一日能得到政府政策上的帮助，政府放松纳税规定，更多地鼓励私人收藏家把藏品捐献给公共机构。
