【答案】第1题:D

第2题:C

第3题:D

第4题:C

第5题:B

【解析】1.主旨大意题。本文首先将前工业时代的周工时与工业革命时期的周工时进行比较，接着说明了不同年代周工时的变化。故D项“人们每周工作的时长发生了变化”正确。

2.细节事实题。根据题干关键词pre-industrialtimes定位到第一段“peopleinpre-industrialsocietiesspent3to4hoursperdayorabout20hoursperweekdoingtheworknecessaryforlife.Moderncomparisonsoftheamountofworkperformedperweek,however,beginwiththeIndustrialRevolution（1760-1840）when10-to-12-hourworkdayswithsixworkdaysperweekwerethenorm.前工业社会的人们每天花3到4个小时，或每周花20个小时做生活所必需的工作。然而，对每周工作量的现代比较始于工业革命（1760年至1840年），当时每周工作6天、每天工作10至12小时是常态。”据此可知19世纪每周的工作时间相比前工业时代有大幅增长。故C项正确。

3.细节事实题。由题干定位到第三段“TheDepressionyearsofthe1930havebroughtwiththemthenotionofjobsharingtospreadavailableworkaround;theworkweekdroppedtoamodernlowfortheUnitedStatesof35hours.20世纪30年代的经济大萧条带来了工作分担的概念，使人们可以到处寻找工作;在美国，每周工作时间降至35小时的现代最低点。”可知美国周工时下降的原因是一些人共同分担一个工作。故D项正确。

4.细节事实题。由题干关键词“FairLaborStandardsAct”定位到第三段“In1938theFairLaborStandardsActmandatedaweeklymaximumof40hourstobeginin1940,andsincethattimethe8-hourday,5-dayworkweekhasbeenthestandardintheUnitedStates.1938年，《公平劳动标准法》（FairLaborStandardsAct）规定，从1940年开始，每周工作时间不得超过40小时。从那以后，8小时工作制和5天工作制就成了美国的标准。”由此可知该法案设定每周40小时的工作时间的目的是给美国工人提出的一个工作标准，以此限定每周的工时。故C项正确。

5.细节事实题。文中有关“UnitedStatesSteelandWestinghouse”的内容出现在“In1926heannouncedthathenceforthhisfactorieswouldclosefortheentiredayonSaturday.Atthetime,FordreceivedcriticismfromotherfirmssuchasUnitedStatesSteelandWestinghouse,buttheideawaspopularwithworkers.1926年，他宣布从今以后他的工厂将在星期六全天关闭。当时，福特受到了美国钢铁公司（UnitedStatesSteel）和西屋电气公司（Westinghouse）等其他公司的批评，但这个想法受到了工人的欢迎。”由此可知这两个公司不赞成福特周六不上班的想法。故B项不是自19世纪以来周工时削减的证据。答案B。

3.翻译题

【答案】1.爱管闲事的监督员容易被人记恨，不是因为他的指责是错误的，而是因为他具有我们不愿意让他有的优势，并且他敢于查明我们想要隐瞒的东西。

2.有些人按照自己的意愿行事，没有人询问他们要去哪里，如果这些人不知不觉偏离了正途，正冲向不可预见的危险，他们会很乐意听取那些能让他们从错误中醒悟过来的建议，并且捕捉到让他们免于毁灭或恶行的第一声警告。

3.如果一个人被告知没有节制的生活必然会加速他走向坟墓的步伐，他还是会以他平常的速度奔向新的奢靡之路，因为他的理智没有被激发，他的胃口也没有被减弱。

4.谄媚的危害，不在于它使人相信他是他自己并不是的那种人，而在于它抑制了真实抱负的影响，因为它使人产生这样一种观点：荣誉不需要付出努力就能获得。

5.每一次拖延，都是在为缺点发展成恶习提供机会。虽然诚心改过，也有合理的计划，但是，只有在某种热切的渴望得到充分满足，或者某种强烈的诱惑停止纠缠时，改过自新的行为才能落实。

【答案】几年前，一位前沙特石油部长发表了这一预言，后来成为人们经常引用的预言：“石器时代并没有因为缺少石头而结束，石油时代将在世界石油枯竭之前结束。”他哀痛地承认，清算的日子即将到来，全球财富与权力的平衡将会被改变。地理上的意外收获使广袤空旷的沙特沙漠成为地球上最重要商品的最重要的来源。但是，美好的时光不可能永远持续下去，他很清楚这一点。

如果你追溯到足够久远的时代，你可以将国家的安全和繁荣、企业甚至个人都能与能源联系起来。在我们这个依赖石油的世界上，在很大程度上，这意味着石油政府依赖于石油而起起落落，军队依赖于它而运行，公司依赖它，消费者也依赖它，当他们从收音机的闹钟中醒来的时候，直到他们关掉电视睡着的那一刻。在过去的一个世纪里，尽管价格不断上涨，偶尔也会发生危机，但往往是政治或经济力量造成的事件，使得总有足够的石油供应提供动力，来维持全球经济的增长。但这是过去的奢侈。未来，一个新的、不确定的能源时代正在形成。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:D

第4题:B

第5题:A

【解析】1.推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章第一段第一句AccordingtonewresearchofProf.RandolfMenzelfromtheFreeUniversityinBerlin,thepopularimageofbeesastheultimatehardworkerswasinaccurate.（根据柏林自由大学兰道夫•门泽尔教授的最新研究，蜜蜂广为流传的终极辛勤工作者形象是不准确的。），说明最新研究表明人们之前对蜜蜂的印象是不准确的。因此C选项“挑战我们对蜜蜂本性的认识”正确。A选项“挑战我们对蜜蜂之间关系的认识”，B选项“证实了我们对蜜蜂之间关系的认识”，本文讨论的不是蜜蜂之间的关系，所以A,B错误。D选项“证实了我们对蜜蜂本性的认识”和原文表述的意思相反，所以D错误。

2.客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第一段最后一句beescompensatedfortheirapparentlazinesswithhighintelligence,advancedmemoryskillsandanabilitytolearnquickly.（蜜蜂以高智商、记忆力和快速学习能力来弥补它们明显的懒惰。），说明兰道夫•门泽尔教授不同意蜜蜂很勤劳的观点。因此A选项“蜜蜂是勤劳的”正确。B选项“蜜蜂的学习能力很强”，C选项“蜜蜂有高智商”，D选项“蜜蜂有良好的记忆力”都是教授认同的蜜蜂的优势，所以B,C,D错误。

3.客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第二段GlynDavies,thePresidentoftheBritishBeekeepersAssociation,saidthatbeeswerenotlazybutefficient…andperhapshumansshouldtrytofollowtheirexampleinsteadofrunningaboutlikeheadlesschickens.（英国养蜂人协会的主席格林•戴维斯说，蜜蜂不是懒惰而是有效率……也许人类应该向它们学习，而不是像无头鸡一样跑来跑去。），说明格林•戴维斯认为人类应该向蜜蜂学习如何提高工作效率。因此D选项“如何提高工作的效率”正确。A选项“如何更快地工作”，B选项“如何活得更久”，C选项“如何相互合作”在文中均没有提及，所以A,B,C错误。

4.推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章第三段最后一句PerhapsincomparisontotheGermanrateofwork,thebeedoeslooklazy（也许与德国的工作效率相比，蜜蜂确实看起来很懒），说明德国人很忙碌，工作很勤奋，蜜蜂和其对比起来就显得比较懒惰。因此B选项“非常忙碌和努力工作”正确。A选项“容易受到民族性格的影响”，原文说的是门泽尔教授的研究可能受到了民族性格的影响，而不是说德国人，所以A错误。C选项“与蜜蜂有许多共同之处”，D选项“倾向于看不起懒惰的人”在文中没有提及，所以C,D错误。

5.推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章最后一段，作者指出，虽然有最新研究的结果，但蜜蜂忙碌勤奋的形象还是很难改变，最后用IBM的广告举例表明人们仍然很崇拜蜜蜂勤奋的特性。因此A选项“显示了忙碌的蜜蜂这一观念的流行”正确。B选项“强调了忙碌的蜜蜂的负面形象”，由原文可知，忙碌的蜜蜂不是一种负面形象，而是受人崇拜的正面形象，所以B错误。C选项“引发公众对忙碌的蜜蜂形象的讨论”，原文没有描述其引发的讨论，所以C错误。D选项“质疑忙碌的蜜蜂与人类的比较”，原文没有质疑，所以D错误。

C.special

D.normal

【答案】B

【解析】考查形容词辨析。actual实际的；common常见的，普通的；special特殊的；normal正常的。句意：民族英雄应该被承认，然而___人在历史的长河中经常忽视或忘记他们，所以民族英雄在美国形成和挣扎求生的过程中值得有一个脚注。从我们常识判断应该是说普通人容易忘记这些民族英雄。所以B项符合题意。

12.单选题

theArcticCircle.

问题1选项

A.touched

B.touching

C.beingtouched

D.touches

【答案】B

【解析】考查非谓语动词。根据前半部分内容可知句子已经有谓语部分，因此空格处不可能再出现谓语形式，因此可知只能选择非谓语动词。再判断出Iceland与ArcticCircle是主动关系，因此选项B符合题意。句意：冰岛位于大西洋北部，最北端与北极圈相接。
