______totellusthattheinterestoftheindividualshouldbesubordinatetothatofthecollective?

问题1选项

A.Wereyouused

B.Areyouused

C.Didyouuse

D.Doyouused

【答案】C

【解析】考查固定句型。句意:你不是经常告诉我们个人的利益应该从属于集体的利益吗?sb.usedtodo“某人过去常常做某事”,其一般疑问句为didsb.usetodo;sb.beusedto(doing)sth.“习惯于(做)某事”,其一般疑问句为be动词提前;beusedtodosth.“被用来做某事”。结合语境,这里指的是过去常常告诉我们某事,C选项Didyouuse符合题意。因此C选项正确。

)resultsslipby.

问题1选项

A.anomalous

B.salient

C.redundant

D.verifiable

【答案】A

【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。anomalous异常的;不恰当的;不一致的;salient显著的;跳跃的;redundant多余的;累赘的;verifiable可证实的;可检验的。句意:她经常最先发现与其他调查结果不一致的数据,不过在这个特殊的试验中她却让一些不一致的结果溜走了。由Usuallythefirsttospotdatathatwereinconsistentwithotherfindings可知A项正确。

D.Fivemillion

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:D

第4题:B

第5题:C

【解析】1.判断推理题。原文首段第一句提及“Wecanbeginourdiscussionof‘populationasaglobalissue’withwhatmostpersonmeanwhentheydiscuss‘thepopulationproblem’…当大多数人在讨论‘人口问题’的时候,我们也可以开始‘人口作为一个全球问题’的讨论。”由此可知,这两个问题是一样的,都是由人口问题引发的,所以选项C正确。

2.判断推理题。根据关键词“powerfuse”定位到第一段最后一句“Itwasquiterighttoemployasimilarmatterthatlinkeddemographicgrowthto‘along,thinpowerfusethatburnssteadilyfromtimetotimeuntilitfinallyreachesthelimit,andexplodes’.它很正确地使用了一个类似的问题,即把人口增长与‘一根又长又细的电源保险丝,它不时地稳定燃烧,直到最终达到极限并爆炸’联系起来。”由此可知,作者是想通过电源保险丝的例子告诉我们,人口过多总有一天会导致人类的灭亡,所以选项A正确。

3.细节事实题。根据第二段的倒数第三句“Formostofhumanhistory,itwasseldomthecasethatoneintenpersonswouldlivepastforty,whereinfancyandchildhoodwereespeciallyriskyperiods.在人类历史的大部分时间里,很少会有十分之一的人活过四十岁,而在这个时期,婴儿期和儿童期是特别危险的。”也就是说,导致人口稳定增长的原因是高死亡率,选项D符合原文。

4.细节事实题。根据第三段的内容:它不仅从历史的角度看待目前的人口增长问题,它表明了近年来人口快速增长的原因不是人们突然想要生更多的孩子,而是因为改善了传统上造成高死亡率的状况。由此可知,人口快速增长的真正原因在于死亡率的改善,所以选项B符合题意。

5.细节事实题。题干问的是“目前每六小时有多少人出生?”根据最后一段的最后三句“Between8000B.C.and1650,anaverageofonly50,000personswasbeingaddedannuallytotheworld’spopulationeachyear.Atpresent,thisnumberisaddedeverysixhours.Theincreaseisabout80,000,000personsannually.公元前8000年—1650年间,世界人口平均每年只增加5万人。目前,这个数字每六小时增加一次。每年大约增加8000万人。”由此可知,现在每六个小时有5万人出生,所以选项C正确。

4.单选题

Thejobofastudentaccommodationofficer()agreatmanyvisitstolandladies.

问题1选项

A.concerns

B.offers

C.asks

D.involves

【答案】D

【解析】句意:学生宿管的工作包含多次拜访女房东。

考查动词辨析。concern涉及,关系到,使担心;offer提供,出价;ask询问,要求;involve包含,牵涉,使陷于。前面句意“学生宿管的工作”跟后面句意“多次拜访女房东”是包含关系。故选D。

5.单选题

Upuntilthattime,hisinteresthadfocusedalmost()onfullymasteringthe

skillsandtechniquesofhiscraft.

问题1选项

A.restrictively

B.radically

C.inclusively

D.exclusively

【答案】D

【解析】句意:直到那个时候,他的兴趣几乎只()充分地掌握职业的技能和技巧。再根据题干中almost和fully,可知他只关注掌握他的职业的技能和技巧。A选项restrictively限制性地;B选项radically根本地,彻底地;C选项inclusively包含地;D选项exclusively专有地;排外地。

6.翻译题

以前人们常说,英国人享乐时也会郁郁不乐。如今,如果英国人真有什么乐趣可享的话,情况无疑还会依然如此,不过英国的烟酒价格构成了足以令人忧愁的外因。有时我觉得,这种享乐时也郁郁不乐的癖性已经传到了大西洋彼岸,我不由得纳闷:这么多讲英语的人身体又健康,收入又丰厚,怎么人生观却如此消沉。

我在美国旅行期间,注意到了一种根深蒂固的忧郁症。我觉得这种忧郁症似乎极其普遍,这就给社会改革家出了难题。大多数社会改革家认为,若是消除了贫困,有了经济保障,太平盛世就会到来。但是,无论在贵国还是在蔽国,看着坐在豪华轿车里的人们的面孔,却见不到社会改革家引导人们期待的那种喜气洋洋的神情。相反,十有八九,我看到的是一副厌倦不满的神情,以及一种近似疯狂的渴望,想找点东西吊起早已发腻的胃口。

7.单选题

()workingonhiscompositionthedaybefore,hewouldhavefinisheditbynow.

问题1选项

A.Wouldhestart

B.Hadhestarted

C.Ifheistostart

D.Ifhewasstarting

【答案】B

【解析】考查虚拟语气。由thedaybefore后半句wouldhavefinishedbynow可知空格处发生的动作发生在过去,是对过去事实的虚拟,从句用had+Ved.故B项正确。句意:如果他昨天就开始写作的话,他现在就已经完成了。故B项正确。

【答案】多数有报酬的工作和少数没报酬的工作有一个优势,那就是它们提供了成功的机会和实现抱负的可能。收入是大多数工作好坏的一个判断标准,当我们这个资本主义社会继续存在时,这是不可避免的。只有在工作最好的情况下,收入才不会被当作理所应当的标准。人们想增加收入是出自于钱多了可以获得更多舒适享受这一愿望,但同样也是出于想取得成功这一欲望。无论工作有多无聊,只要它能让人获得更多的声望,无论是在大范围的世界出名还是在自己的小圈子有名气,都是可以忍受的。在这方面来说,那些家庭主妇没有在外的男人或者在外工作的女人幸运。这些家庭主妇没有收入,无法改善自己的情况。丈夫欣赏的不是她干的家务活,而是其他品质。

当然,对那些有足够的钱把住宅和花园都搞得十分漂亮并且成为邻居们羡慕的对象的女人来说,情况不一样。但是这样的女人很少。对于大多数妇女,家务带给她们的满足远不如其他工作带给男子或职业妇女的满足。

12.WhydidJamesCopelandwanttostudytheAmericanIndiantribeTarahumaras?

【试题答案】A

【试题解析】题目问的是JamesCopeland研究美洲印第安部落塔拉乌马拉人(Tarahumaras)的原因。录音开头提到,他发现对塔拉乌马拉人的语言进行的研究很少,于是产生了研究该部落的念头,A选项“他发现对他们语言的研究几乎没有”与录音原文表述相符,因此正确。B选项“他正努力保护印第安人部落的语言”在录音中并未提及;C选项“他与一名社会工作者的接触极大地激发了他对该部落的兴趣”,利用录音中出现的asocialworker设置干扰,录音说的是他通过一名社会工作者与部落的成员取得了联系,是研究该部落的一种渠道而不是研究该部落的原因,因此可排除;D选项“与Gonzalez的会面使他渴望更多地了解这个部落”,录音中提及Copeland与Gonzalez的会面是发生在他产生了研究兴趣之后,因此也可排除。

13.HowdidGonzalezhelpJamesCopeland?

【试题答案】D

【试题解析】题目问Gonzalez是如何帮助Copeland的?录音中提到,Gonzalez带Copeland去了他所在的村落,并充当了中间人,D选项“他在Copeland和村民之间扮演着中间人的角色”符合录音原文的表述,因此正确。A选项“他教Copeland说塔拉乌马拉人的语言”和C项“他推荐他的一位好朋友当翻译”在录音中均没有信息提及;B选项“他劝服塔拉乌马拉人接受Copeland的礼物”,录音只说了塔拉乌马拉人接受了礼物,并与大家一起分享,并没有提及他们是否在Gonzalez的劝说下才接受礼物,因此B选项也可排除。

14.WhatdoesthespeakersayaboutJamesCopeland’striptotheTarahumarasvillage?

【试题答案】C

【试题解析】题目问说话者对JamesCopeland的塔拉乌马拉人村落之旅的看法。录音提到,对Copeland而言,进入塔拉乌马拉人的世界是一项艰苦的任务(alaboriousproject),因此C选项“艰苦的,费劲的”正确。A选项“不可预知的”;B选项“不合理的”和D选项“乏味的”在录音中均没有信息提及。

15.WhatimpressesJamesCopelandabouttheTarahumarastribe?

【试题答案】B

【试题解析】题目问塔拉乌马拉部落给Copeland留下深刻印象的是什么?录音结尾提到,Copeland从他们互相分享和关心中看到了很多美好,因此B选项“他们的分享和关心”正确。A选项“他们对外来者的帮助表示感激”,录音中没有提及;C选项“他们乐于适应科技”,录音中提到的是(塔拉乌马拉部落的)人们拒绝科技(rejectingtechnology),因此C选项不正确;D选项“他们为自己创造财富的信仰”,录音中提及塔拉乌马拉人不崇尚积累财富(whodon’tbelieveinaccumulatingwealth),因此D选项也不正确。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:D

【解析】1.文章第三段对theassured进行了描述,这类人对自己的英语很自信,不需要为自己说英语而担心(donotfeeltheyneedworrymuchabouttheiruseofEnglish)。所以他们对语言应该是非常淡定的,选项D符合题意。

2.文章倒数第二段提到他们由焦虑带来的不幸不仅仅只是忍受内在的焦虑,而且还要遭受来自自信派和冷漠派的谴责。由此可知,他们遭受了内外煎熬。选项B符合题意。

3.文章最后一段对焦虑派的描述是:他们把过多的精力放到对变形了的英语,由disproportionateamountoftheirenergy,variantformsofEnglish,和thisshabbyobsession等可以看出作者认为焦虑派所做的努力是不明智的,选项D符合题意。
