3.单选题

Theboyhasadmittedto（

）thewindowwhileplayingfootballyesterday.

问题1选项

A.breaking

B.havingbeenbroken

C.break

D.bebreaking

【答案】A

【解析】句意:那个男孩承认在昨天踢足球的时候打破了窗子。

语法题。考查动词时态。admitto中的to是介词，后接动词吋需用-ing形式,排除C，D；并且break是瞬间动词不能用完成时态，故答案选项为A。

4.单选题

Noonewouldhavetimetoreadorlistentoanaccountofeverything（

）goingonintheworld.

问题1选项

A.itis

B.asis

C.thereis

D.whatis

【答案】C

【解析】语法题。根据句子结构，可知“……goingonintheworld”为定语从句修饰先行词everything，且关系代词that可省，所以选用therebe句型，表示“世界上正在发生的”。句意：没有人有时间去读或去听关于这个世界正在发生的所有事情

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:C

第3题:A

第4题:D

第5题:B

【解析】11.判断推理题。根据题干信息定位到第一段后半部分Toooften,businessesfailtoaskthemselvescriticalquestions...（企业往往没有问自己一些关键性的问题……）从这段话可以看出，作者认为企业在设计广告手册时的考虑是不周全的，没有进行深入思考。因此C选项“设计他们时考虑得并不充分”正确。A选项“顾客对他们的期望太高了”不对，没有提到客户的期望，只是说广告手册可能会把客户弄糊涂。B选项“它们在设计上应该更加直接”也不对，第一段并没有提到设计的问题。D选项“公司应该确保他们更广泛地使用它们”在原文中也没有提到。

12.判断推理题。根据题干关键词可以定位到第二段Theremaynotbeenoughmoneytomeetallthreemarketingneeds,sothefirsttaskistoplanthebrochure,takingintoaccountthemostsignificantofthese.（可能没有足够的资金来满足所有这三个营销需求，所以第一项任务是规划宣传册，考虑到最重要的这些。）也就是说他们不可能满足所有的市场需要，所以优先考虑最关键的部分，其他的需要用另外的方式来满足。因此C选项“接受一个广告手册不可能满足所有目标的事实”正确。A选项“制作宣传册宣传新产品系列”；B选项“使用宣传册来扩大客户基础”以及D选项“争取获得更大的预算拨款用于制作小册子”都不是原文的观点。

13.判断推理题。根据题干信息定位到第三段In95percentofcases,acompanywillhireadesignertooverseethelayout,sothefinalproductlooksstylish,interestingandprofessional;buttheydon’tgetacopywriterorsomeonewiththerightexpertisetoproducethetext（在95%的情况下，公司会聘请一名设计师来监督布局，使最终产品看起来时尚、有趣和专业），也就是说作者认为他们只注重设计而不注重表述内容，应该找一个有相关技能的广告文字撰稿人来制作文字，因此A选项“更好的语言和表达”是最符合的。B选项“更好的整体外观”，作者说了外观是精心设计的，因此很时尚；C选项“更多最新的内容”，是否是最新内容文章并未提及；D选项“更多的产品信息”是过度推断。

14.根据题干关键词定位到第四段Theimportantpointtogetacrossatthebeginningisthatyouhaveagoodtrackrecord.（最重要的一点是在开始的时候你要有一个良好的业绩记录。）也就是说要有好口碑，因此D选项“他们建立的声誉”，是原文的转述项，正确。A选项“他们对商业环境的理解”；B选项“他们提供的产品范围”以及C选项“他们独特的市场地位”，都没有提到。

15.事实细节题。根据题干信息定位到最后一段Butrememberthatitisnotenoughjusttostatethese:inordertopersuade,theyneedtobespeltout.（但请记住，仅仅陈述这些是不够的：为了说服别人，需要把它们说清楚。）也就是说仅仅声明是不够的他们需要被详细说明。因此B选项“为他们的主张提供支持”正确。A选项“既考虑新客户，也考虑老客户”没有提到；C选项“避免使用自己的照片”不对，不是说避免使用他们的照片，而是说不能仅仅只呈上他们的照片，还要有别的东西，比如客户的建议；D选项“包括质量认证的细节”也没有提到。

8.单选题

Everymeans（

）triedoutbutneverwithsuccess,asfarasmyknowledgegoes.

问题1选项

A.is

B.are

C.hasbeen

D.havebeen

【答案】C

【解析】考查主谓一致。every开头，可知后面要用单数，根据句意可知要用完成时，因此选项C符合题意。

9.单选题

Thoughsometimestoolazytoworkashardashersisters,Lindahasamoreavidfondnessforthelimelight.

问题1选项

A.mercurial

B.gallant

C.ardent

D.frugal

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项mercurial“多变的；活泼的；机智的”；B选项gallant“英勇的”；C选项ardent“热烈的”；D选项frugal“节俭的”。句意：虽然琳达有时太懒，不像她的姐妹们那样努力工作，但她对引人注目更热烈地喜欢。根据语境，C选项ardent“热烈的”搭配fondness“喜好”比较合理，和avid“热衷的”同义，符合题意。因此C选项正确。

10.单选题

Dieselenginesprovideexcellentmileage,buttheyarerelativelynoisyandtheiraccelerationissluggish.

问题1选项

A.uneven

B.loud

C.slow

D.hard

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。sluggish表示“萧条的，迟钝的”；A项uneven“不均匀的，不平坦的”，B项loud“大声的，喧闹的”，C项slow“慢的，减速的”，D项hard“努力的，硬的”。句意：柴油发动机提供优良的里程，但它们相对嘈杂，加速缓慢。根据句意可知，sluggish在句子中表示“缓慢的”，四个选项中只有slow符合。故该题选择C项正确。

11.单选题

Scientistsspeculatethat（）populationgrowthanddwindlingresourcesmayforcehumanbeingstolooktotheseaforfood.

问题1选项

A.unavoidable

B.unexpected

C.unrestrained

D.uncommon

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。unavoidable不可避免的；unexpected意外的，意想不到的；unrestrained无限制的；uncommon不常见的。由后面的结果“人类将转到海洋去寻求食物”可推知原因是无限制的人口增长以及资源的不断减少。故C项正确。句意：科学家预测无限制的人口增长以及不断减少的自然资源将迫使人类往海洋寻求食物。

13.单选题

Themoneyspentonmedicalinsurancelastyearwasfourtimes___tenyearsago.

问题1选项

A.muchmore

B.asmuchas

C.thatasmuchofthat

D.asmuchasthatof

【答案】B

【解析】考查平行结构。平行结构指and,but,aswellas,or,orelse,both...and,neither…nor,either…or,notonly…but(also),asmuchas等并列连词连接两个对等的词或者对等的结构：1.所连接的谓语形式必须一致，2.所连接的词或短语形式必须一致，3.连接的非谓语动词的形式必须一致；整个题干有省略的部分，把句子展开Themoneyspentonsocialinsurancelastyearwasfourtimes___thatspentonsocialinsurancetenyearsago.句意：去年花在社会保险上的钱是十年前花在社会保险上的四倍，即可以看出句子中的平行结构themoney与省略的that平行，spentonsocialinsurancelastyear与省略的spentonsocialinsurancetenyearsago平行。A选项：muchmore后边接多音节形容词或者副词，也能接可数名词复数或者不可数名词，more是much或者many的比较级，代入后不符合题干；C，D选项代入后可以看到that重复，破坏平行结构；B选项代入后符合平行结构。因此B选项正确。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:B

第3题:B

第4题:D

第5题:C

【解析】第1题:主旨大意题。文章主要分为三个部分，第一个部分讲述的是民间文化社会的特点，第二部分讲述的是大众文化社会的特点，第三部分是讲述在工业时代的如今，大众流行文化正在取代民间文化。选项A：二十年的现代社会；选项B:工业技术的影响；选项D：加拿大和美国的劳动专业化，以上选项均与原文不符。选项C:“民俗化”社会与“大众化”社会的特征“为正确选项。

第2题:事实细节题。由题干意思定位到文章第一段中Traditionisparamount,andchangecomesinfrequentlyandslowly.Thereisrelativelylittledivisionoflaborintospecializedduties.“传统是至高无上的，很少有改变，而且变化很慢。很少有专门的劳动分工。”由此可知选项B“社会变革发生得很慢”与原文相符，为正确选项，而选项A、C、D均与原文表述的意思相反。

第3题:事实细节题。题干意思是关于美国和加拿大，作者暗示了什么?可以定位到文章第—段中UnalteredfolkculturesnolongerexistinindustrializedcountriessuchastheUniteStatesandCanada.“在美国和加拿大等工业化国家，一成不变的民间文化已经不复存在。”可以推断出两个国家的文化均已大众流行化，由此可知B选项“它们有大众流行文化”与原文意思相符，因此B为正确选项。

第4题:事实细节题。由题干关键词定位到第一段最后一句Thereligion,avarietyoftheMennonitefaith,providestheprincipalmechanism,formaintainingorder.“其宗教，作为Mennonite信仰的一种，提供了维持秩序的主要机制。”由此可知D选项“宗教”为正确选项，选项A、B、C均与题意不符。

第5题:事实细节题。选项A：容忍各种宗教活动。这与文章所表述的阿米什人很少与他们宗派以外的人通婚不符，因此错误。选项B：个人主义和竞争很重要这与文章“theweaknessofindividualismandsocialclasses”意思不符，所以为错误选项。选项D：每个人发展一项专门技能，明显与文中第一段描述不符。选项C：现代以前的技术更受喜欢，与原文“InAmishareas,horsedrawnbuggiesstillseverasalocaltransportationdevice,andthefaithfularenotpermittedtoownautomobiles.”所表述的意思“在Amish地区，轻便马车仍然是当地的交通工具，信徒们不允许拥有汽车。”相符，因此C选项正确。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:D

第3题:C

第4题:B

【解析】1.【试题解析】主旨大意题。本文谈论关于噪音的影响以及消除噪音的方式，因此答案为选项C。

2.【试题解析】细节事实题。由题干关键词loudnoise可以定位到文章第一段中“Loudnoisescanaffectyourhearing.Theycancauseearpain.”，中文翻译为：噪音会影响你的听力。他们可以引起耳朵疼痛。因此，答案选D。

3.【试题解析】细节事实题。由题干关键词tosoundproofaroom，可以定位到文章中“Forexample,tosoundproofroomsmeansthatwallsandceilingsmustbeverythickandcoveredwithsoundproofingmaterials.”，中文翻译为：例如，隔音的房间意味着墙壁和天花板一定很厚，并且覆盖着隔音材料。由此可知C选项正确。

4.【试题解析】推理判断题。根据题干关键词soundwaves可以定位到文章中“Soundwavesbounceoffwallsandceilingsinrooms.Theirechoesaddtothenewsoundsintherooms.”，中文翻译为：声波从房间的墙壁和天花板反弹。它们的回声给房间增加新的声音。根据语境及句意可知B项正确。

16.单选题

问题1选项

A.preferably

B.virtually

C.precisely

D.presumably

【答案】B

【解析】考查副词辨析。A选项preferably“更合意地，最好是”；B选项virtually“事实上，几乎；实质上”；C选项precisely“精确地；恰恰”；D选项presumably“大概；推测起来；可假定”。句意：___无法想象，如果没有城市的支持，大学、医院、大企业甚至科学技术会出现。本句表达“几乎无法想象”，因此B选项正确。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:A

第3题:C

第4题:D

第5题:D

【解析】1.词义题。文章第一句指出:……为儿童设计并被称为“无聊杀手”的书籍、网站、电视节目、音像制品表明“ennui”没有年龄界限。因此推测，ennui是属于“无聊”之意的范畴，故选D项“一种没事可干的感觉”。

2.细节事实题。通过题干关键词"alostartform"定位至第一段最后一句:然而，一些专家最近指出，强迫性地逃避无聊使人无法进入无聊带来的某种思维空间，这使我们在创造力和精神上都处于营养不良的状态。换句话说，无聊成了一种“逝去的艺术形式”。以及最后一段:正是这种无聊被一些人视为逝去的艺术形式。从四面八方涌来的过多的信息意味着很少有时间可用于个人思考、深思、或者仅仅“溜号”。因此，综合考虑，无聊可以提供某种思维空间，但是现代社会充斥着过多的信息，从而使得这种思考空间成为“逝去的艺术形式”。故选A项“被剥夺了深入思考”。

3.判断推理题。根据题干关键词StevenWinn定位至第二段:theuniversalexperienceofbeingboredmaybefarmoreprecious,fruitfulandevenprofoundthanasurfaceunderstandingmightsuggest(普遍的无聊经历可能比表面看起来的要更加珍贵、更有成效、甚至更深刻)以及boredomdeservesitsownsun-splashedattentionandcelebration(无聊应受到阳光灿烂般的关注和赞美),因此可看出，StevenWinn认为，无聊（其意义和积极影响）值得关注。

4.判断推理题。A:两个定义相互矛盾。B:有优劣之分。文章的第三段和第四段分别谈及“无聊”的两种看法，但是不是相互矛盾，而且也无优劣之分，故排除A项和B项。C:是艺术创作的源泉。第四段第一句指出:无聊给予了人们独立思考的空间，因而对于艺术创造是极其珍贵的,但是并不能说无聊就是艺术创作的源泉，故排除C项。D:消亡于信息时代。根据第四段可知:无聊被称之为“逝去的艺术形式”是因为繁杂的信息意味着用于有利于艺术创造的思考时间很少，即“无聊”的时间很少了，因此选D。

5.主旨大意题。文章谈及对“无聊”的两种看法，并且提出“无聊”已经成了“逝去的艺术形式”这一主要观点。因此，D项“无聊的意义”比较适合做文章标题。
