【答案】第1题:B

第2题:D

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:B

【解析】第1题:主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了考古学缺乏资金支持以及非法盗掘猖獗的现象，随后提出了针对性的解决方案。因此B项“一种遏制非法盗掘同时能让考古职业受益的方法”正确。

第2题:判断推理题。A:史前文物市场已经存在。第一段最后一句指出:Second,thereistheproblemofillegalexcavation,resultinginmuseum-qualitypiecesbeingsoldtothehighestbidder(其次，存在非法挖掘的问题，导致博物馆有收藏价值的文物被卖给出价最高的人)。因此A项符合文章所述。B:这种史前文物很少有科研价值。第三段指出:Theoretically,youmaybecorrectinclaimingthateveryartifacthaspotentialscientificvalue.Practically,youarewrong(从理论上讲，你声称每件文物都有潜在的科学价值或许是对的。但实际上，你错了)。因此B项正确。C:博物馆里有很多这些史前文物。第五段指出:Thebasementsofmuseumsaresimplynotlargeenoughtostoretheartifactsthatarelikelytobediscoveredinthefuture(博物馆的地下室只是没有足够大到存放将来可能被发现的文物)。因此C项正确。D:这些史前文物在质量上常常优于那些编录到博物馆里的文物，此选项文章并未提及。因此答案为D。

第3题:细节事实题。最后一段指出:Thereisnotenoughmoneyeventocataloguethefinds;asaresult,theycannotbefoundagainandbecomeasinaccessibleasiftheyhadneverbeendiscovered(甚至没有足够的钱对这些发现进行分类；结果，它们就再也找不到了，并且变得难以接近，像从未被发现过一样)。因此C项“这些史前文物通常保持未分类状态，因此一旦收藏起来就可能找不到了”正确。

第4题:词义题。根据题干定位至第四段:Evenpreciousroyalsealimpressionsknownasmelekhhandleshavebeenfoundinabundancemorethan4.000examplessofar.破折号后面的morethan4.000examplessofar(到目前为止有多于四千件复制品)是用来解释说明abundance的，由此可知abundance表示“数量很多”。

第5题:判断推理题。第三段指出:Moreover,ancientartifactsarepartofourglobalculturalheritage,whichshouldbeavailableforalltoappreciate,notsoldtothehighestbidder(此外，古代文物是我们全球文化遗产的一部分，所有人都可以欣赏，而不是卖给出价最高的人)。因此B项“本应该在公共场合被展出的文物将要卖给个人”正确。

2.单选题

Weallwanttofeelimportantandsowe___thepositiveattentionofothers.

问题1选项

A.craft

B.crave

C.crack

D.craze

【答案】B

【解析】考查动词辨析。A选项craft“精巧地制作”；B选项crave“渴望；恳求”；C选项crack“使破裂；将（谷物）粗磨；砸开（保险箱）；成功获得；（可听到响声的）重击；（使）发出爆裂声；（突然）变嘶哑；使屈服；（非正式）吃不消；（非正式）突然大笑；（非正式）找到解决方法；阻止；开瓶；说（笑话）；使（碳氢化合物）裂化”；D选项craze“使发狂；使产生纹裂”。句意：我们都想感到自己很重要，所以我们渴望得到别人的积极关注。本句表达“我们渴望得到别人的关注”，因此B选项正确。

3.单选题

Facebook’stopexecutivesareeligiblefortwice-a-yearbonusesofupto45percentoftheirbasesalaries.

问题1选项

A.optional

B.qualified

C.desirable

D.casual

【答案】B

【解析】【选项释义】

A.optional可选择的B.qualified有资格的

C.desirable值得拥有的D.casual随意的

【考查点】形容词辨析

【解题思路】划线词修饰的是“Facebook的高管”，原文areeligiblefor词义为“有资格的”，B选项qualified通常与介词for连用，AbequalifiedforB（A具备完成/拥有B的资格或能力），与原词最接近。

【干扰项排除】

A选项optional“可选择的”，不符合语境；

C选项desirable“值得拥有的”，通常修饰“值得的或可取的东西”，在这句话中应该是“一年两次的奖金”，通常用于itisdesirablethat（XX是可取的。）或者itisdesirableforsomeonetodosomething（做某事是值得的。）

D选项casual“随意的”，不符合语境。

【句意】Facebook的高管有资格获得一年两次的奖金，最高可达基本工资的45%。

4.单选题

Thenewspapermustprovideforthereaderthefacts,unalloyed,objectivelyselectedfacts.Butinthesedaysofcomplexnewsitmustprovidemore;itmustsupplyinterpretation,themeaningofthefacts.ThisisthemostimportantassignmentconfrontingAmericanjournalismtomakecleartothereadertheproblemsoftheday,tomakeinternationalnewsasunderstandableascommunitynews,torecognizethatthereisnolongeranysuchthing(withthepossibleexceptionofsuchcarelesswritingsassocietyandclubnews)as“local”news,becauseanyeventintheinternationalareahaslocalreactioninmanpowerdraft,ineconomicstrain,interms,indeed,ofourverywayoflife.

【答案】第1题:A

第2题:A

第3题:D

第4题:B

第5题:C

【解析】1.主旨大意题。结合全文内容可知,本文主要讲的是对新闻的解读,选择事实以及主观和客观的过程都是属于解读新闻的,所以选项A最恰当。

2.细节事实题。根据第四段第二句“Thereportercollects,say,fiftyfacts;outofthesefifty,hisspaceallotmentbeingnecessarilyrestricted,heselectsthetenwhichheconsidersmostimportant.”可知,选项A符合原文。

3.推理判断题。根据原文内容可知,选项A,B,C是记者在原文中明确提及,只有选项D是作者在第四段的时候暗指的。

4.细节事实题。根据第四段“Thenheorhiseditordecideswhichofthesetenfactsshallconstitutetheleadofthepiece.(Thisisanimportantdecisionbecausemanyreadersdonotproceedbeyondthefirstparagraph).”这是一个重要的决定,因为许多读者读完第一段就不会继续读下去了。选项B与原文表述一致。

5.细节事实题。根据最后一段最后两句,如果一个编辑想要歪曲新闻,他可以用其他方法,比解读更有效。他可以通过选择那些支持他借口的事实来做到这一点。或者,他也可以通过他讲述的故事来做到这一点——把它提升到第一页,或者降低到第三十页。选项C符合原文。

【答案】第1题:A

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:C

第5题:B

【解析】1.事实细节题。根据关键词“WelfareState”定位到第二段第二句“InBritainthishasdevelopedintoa'WelfareState'inwhichallcitizens,richandpooralikecangetmosthealthtreatmentfree.”所有公民，无论贫富，都可以免费获得大部分医疗服务。选项A符合原文。

2.细节推断题。选项A和选项C在文中没有提及；根据第三段的第一句“Asthreedecadeshaveshown,suchautomaticarrangementsarenotalwaysidealandthereareargumentsforandagainsttheHealthService.”threedecades意为30年；公众支持和反对卫生服务都有，并不都是好的评价；所以选项B符合原文，而选项D错误。

3.主旨思想题。结合全文内容可知，本文主要是讲医疗服务的发展，其有利条件和不利条件，所以选项D更能概括全文，其他选项只是文中的片段。

4.细节推理题。根据关键词“wealthypeople”定位到最后一段的最后一句“Infact,somewealthypeoplefeelthattheyshouldpay,andsofreemoremoneyfortreatmenttoothers.”事实上，一些富人觉得他们应该付钱，这样就可以把多余的钱让给其他人治疗。选项C符合原文。

5.词汇推断题。根据第四段的第二句“Sometimesthisfreetreatmentisabusedandpeoplevisittheirdoctorswhentheydon’treallyneedto.”有时这种免费治疗被滥用，有些人在不需要的时候也去看医生。由此可知他们是用了错误的方法，选项B符合原文。

6.单选题

Mostofhisfellowworkersdon'tlikehimbecauseheoften___ofhispastglory.

问题1选项

A.bursts

B.bawls

C.boasts

D.bans

【答案】C

【解析】【选项释义】

A.bursts爆发B.bawls大叫

C.boasts自夸；夸耀D.bans禁止

【考查点】固定搭配。

【解题思路】空格处接of组成固定短语。空格处的动词与光辉事迹相连接，与前文同事们不喜欢他相照应。C选项boastof“自夸”在这里表示他总是自己夸耀自己，符合句子逻辑。

【干扰项排除】A、B、D选项均无法与空格前后构成相应逻辑关系。

【句意】他的大多数同事都不喜欢他，因为他经常吹嘘自己过去的辉煌。

7.单选题

Hestillsuffersfromararetopicaldiseasewhichhe（）,whileworkingtoAfrica.

问题1选项

A.infected

B.incurred

C.contracted

D.infested

【答案】C

【解析】本题是动词辨析题。infected“感染”；incurred“招致；蒙受”，contracted“合同；感染；收缩”；infested“大批滋生”，根据句意可知这里是指“感染了某种病”，所以此处的动词要从infected和contracted之间来选择，infect这个动作的发出者是疾病，强调疾病的感染性；而contract强调的是人感染疾病，动作的发出者是人，此处强调的是人感染疾病，故正确答案为选项C。

ReadthepassagecarefullyandtranslatetheunderlinedsentencesintoChinese.

【答案】（1）尽管法国的医疗保健制度面临着很多的挑战，但2001年世界卫生组织仍将它排在第一位，原因是法国的医疗保健制度的覆盖面最广，拥有积极响应的医疗保健提供者,医患的自由性和国民健康、长寿。

（2）法国人和美国人一样也不愿意在患者选择上设限，并且他们坚决主张自主的私营执业者，而不是一种英国式的国民保健制度。法国人将这种国民保健制度视为“公费医疗制度”，不予采纳。

（3）但是两方面的因素弥补了法国医生的收入低的情形。反侵权法律制度大大减小了实践责任。另外,尽管进入医学院的竞争极其激烈，但其学费是免费的。因此，法国医生就业时很少欠债，所付的医疗事故保险费非常少。

（4）参观法国医用办公室看不到非医学的职员是很平常的事情。也就是说在后端办公的人员中，没有大批的医疗账单专家每天与保险公司不断改变的付款规则作战。

（5）)如今法国改革者优先考虑的事是不再从工资和工资税上为健康保险筹措资金，因为他们制约了雇用者雇用员工的意愿。相反，法国的税收主要是来自工薪收入和非工薪收入，并用这些税收来支付健康保险。

问题1选项

A.inspiteof

B.onaccountof

C.intermsof

D.bymeansof

【答案】C

【解析】考查词组辨析。A选项inspiteof“尽管；不管，不顾”；B选项onaccountof“由于；因为；为了……的缘故”；C选项intermsof“依据；按照；在……方面；以……措词”；D选项bymeansof“用，依靠”。句意：意识到我们的母亲的年龄，不仅仅在年纪的数字上，而且（）她的身心状态，常常有助于我们更好地理解母亲。从“innumbersofyears”（在年龄数字方面）这里可知后面指的是“在其身心状态方面”，所以答案选C。

11.单选题

【答案】C

【解析】形容词词义解析。stuttering“口吃，结巴”；scattering“分散的”；inarticulate“不善于表达的”；inexpressive“无表情的，无意义的”。句意：梅齐认为她是害羞而且不善表达的人，惊讶的是，竟然有人会问她的意见。选项C符合题意。
