【答案】第1题:B

第2题:C

第3题:D

第4题:D

第5题:C

【解析】第1题:主旨大意题。A选项“天文学家从勘测者号和阿波罗号太空任务中学到了什么”；B选项“月球主要地形的特征”；C选项“月球陨石坑的起源”：D选项“用来记录月球地貌的技术”。根据题干定位到第一段第一句话TheMoon,whichhasundergoneadistinctandcomplexgeologicalhistory,presentsastrikingappearance.（月球经历了独特而复杂的地质历史，呈现出惊人的外观。）第二段倒数第一二句话Strange,sinuousfeatureswereobservedinthemaria.Althoughvariouslandformswerecatalogued,themajorityofastronomers’attentionwasfixedoncratersandtheirorigins.（在月海中观察到奇怪的、弯曲的特征。虽然有各种各样的地貌，但天文学家的注意力主要集中在陨石坑和它们的起源上。）从这里可以看出文章都是围绕着月球的地形地貌展开的，所以答案选B；C选项只是提及没有具体展开讲，而且文章不止讲了月球上的陨石坑还有相当一部分内容是讲的月海（maria），所以不能选，A、D选项不符合题意。

第2题:词义推测题。A选项“改变”；B选项“取代”；C选项“经历”；D选项“保存”。第一段第一句话TheMoon,whichhasundergoneadistinctandcomplexgeologicalhistory,presentsastrikingappearance.（月球经历了独特而复杂的地质历史，呈现出惊人的外观）。从这句undergone的意思是经历，这个和选项C相近，所以答案选C。

第3题:词义推测题。A选项“年龄”；B选项“创造的方式”；C选项“尺寸”；D选项“成分”。第一段第三四五句话…observersthatthetwoterrainsmighthavedifferentcompositions…Oneofthemostobviousdifferencesbetweentheterrainsisthesmoothnessofthemariaincontrasttotheroughnessofthehighlands.Thisroughnessismostlycausedbytheabundanceofcraters;thehighlandsarecompletelycoveredbylargecraters（……观察者认为这两种地形可能有不同的组成……这两种地形最明显的区别之一就是平坦的海地与粗糙的高地形成对比。这种粗糙度主要是由大量的陨石坑造成的；高地完全被大型火山口所覆盖），从这里可知因为组成成分不同所以造成了两者的不同，而两者的不同主要是粗糙程度，粗糙程度是因为陨石坑多的地方就很粗糙，而月海没有陨石坑，所以不那么粗糙，归根结底主要还是构成的地形不一样，所以答案选D。

第4题:细节理解题。题干：根据文章，月球研究人员主要关注的是……A选项“在月球上找到水的可能性”；B选项“月球表面风化层”；C选项“各种地形分类”；D选项“陨石坑和它们的起源”。根据题干定位到第二段最后一句话Althoughvariouslandformswerecatalogued,themajorityofastronomers’attentionwasfixedoncratersandtheirorigins.（虽然有各种各样的地貌，但天文学家的注意力主要集中在陨石坑和它们的起源上），由此可知科学家的重点是在陨石坑及其起源，所以答案选D；其他选项文章没有提及。

第5题:判断推理题。题干：这篇文章可能会继续讨论。A选项“陨石坑形成的原因很难研究”，B选项“不同的形状”，C选项“一些大型陨石坑的特征”；D选项“大小陨石坑形成的方式有些不同”。定位到文章最后一段Astronomershaveknownforafairlylongtimethattheshapeofcraterschangesastheyincreaseinsize.Smallcraterswithdiametersoflessthan10-15kmhaverelativelysimpleshapes.Theyhaverimcreststhatareelevatedabovethesurroundingterrain,smooth,bowl-shapedinteriors,anddepthsthatareaboutone-fifthtoone-sixththeirdiameters.Thecomplexityofshapeincreasesforlargercraters.（天文学家很早就知道，陨石坑的形状会随着体积的增大而改变。直径小于10-15公里的小陨石坑形状相对简单。它们的边缘嵴高于周围的地形，光滑的碗状内部，深度约为直径的五分之一到六分之一。陨石坑越大，其形状的复杂性就越大），文章最后一段描写了小陨石坑的一些特征，然后最后一句话说的是陨石坑越大，形状越复杂，所以从这里可以推断接下来文章会要讲大陨石坑的结构和特征了，因此答案选C。

【解析】1.语义连接。句意：农药是除害虫和杂草的最有效的（）。means：方式，手段。

2.固定搭配。contributeto：有助于。

3.语义连接。句意：农药重复使用对环境造成污染，此现象已经引起了研究机构的注意，污染治理的范围将不仅仅局限于土壤本身，可能转向其他领域。

4.语义连接。howlong：多久，表示时间长度。句意：农药在土壤中残留多久，取决于它的强度。

5.语义连接。前句提到农药在土壤中残留程度取决于多方面因素，接着讲述也取决于……

6.固定搭配。Withregardsto：关于，考虑到。

7.语义连接。句意：本文综述了土壤系统的物理和化学特性（如含水量、有机质和粘土含量、pH值）对农药的吸附/解吸和降解及其进入地下水和地表水的影响。influence：影响。

8.语义题。concourse：综合。空格处填介词of，此处表示各学科的综合。

9.固定搭配。句子是部分倒装句，状语提前放到句首，谓语动词放在主语前面。表示：只有通过……才……。

10.逻辑分析。微生物源农药更effective，reliable（有效，可靠），应该对应alowenvironmentalrisk（低风险）。

6.单选题

Japanisoneofonlythreecountriesthatnowhuntwhalesand（

）thegovernmentsaysitisanimportantculturaltradition.

问题1选项

A.that

B.which

C.whose

D.where

【答案】D

【解析】考查语法知识。题干中and表示并列关系，连接两个并列的定语从句修饰先行词countries。后一定语从句的主语thegovernment与先行词countries不等同，并且由于有定冠词the，所以关系词不能是whose，而只能是表地点的关系副词where。句意：日本是目前仅有的三个捕鲸国家之一，日本政府表示，捕鲸是一项重要的文化传统。因此D选项符合题意。

9.Whatdowelearnaboutthefindingsofthenewstudy?

【试题答案】C

【试题解析】题目问关于这项新研究的发现，我们可以知道什么？录音开始不久便提到，一项新的研究揭示了晴雪天气对消费者行为的影响，C选项“天气条件影响消费者的购买行为”与录音原文表述相符，因此正确。A选项“消费者想象他们在不同天气下的活动”和D选项“消费者的心理状态随着商品价格的变化而变化”在录音中均没有信息提及，因此排除。B选项“好的天气引发消费者购物的欲望”，录音中只是表明晴雪天气会触发消费者将这些天气与产品的使用联想在一起，而这样的联想会增加产品在消费者心目中的价值，也就是说，他们愿意为这些产品支付更多的钱。这表明他们愿意花更高的价格来购买东西，并不是说好天气引发购物欲，因此B选项不正确。

10.Whatdoesthepassagesaymayincreasethevalueofproductsforconsumers?

【试题答案】B

【试题解析】题目问对消费者来说，什么可以增加产品的价值。录音中提及晴雪天气会促使消费者想象与这些天气相关的商品使用情景，从而增加商品在消费者心目中的价值，并以沙滩毛巾为例具体说明。因此，B选项“大脑想象”正确。A选项“直接关联”利用correlation作干扰，消费者通过天气联想商品使用的场景，然后想象的画面使得商品增值，这是间接的关联，因此A选项不正确；C选项“个人关联”，新研究揭示的是一般消费者的普遍行为，并没有针对个人进行研究，因此不正确；D选项“主动消费”，录音中并没有表明消费是主动还是被动，因此D选项也不正确。

11.Howcanthefindingsofthenewstudybenefitonlinesellers,accordingtotheresearchers?

【试题答案】D

【试题解析】题目问研究人员认为这项新研究的发现可以怎样使网上卖家受益？录音结尾处提及，研究人员认为网上卖家在决定卖什么和定什么价格时，如果能把更多的天气信息纳入考虑，会有助于做出更明智的决定，从而促进销售。因此，D选项“帮助他们决定卖什么和定什么价格”正确。A选项“帮助他们宣传更多种类的产品”，录音中并没有提及“advertise（宣传）”这一信息，因此不正确；B选项“使他们能以更高的价格销售产品”，新研究发现跟某些天气条件有正相关的产品可以在消费者心中增值，从而使他们愿意支付更多的钱，但并非所有商品都有这些效应，因此可排除B选项；C选项“使他们能够简化数学公式”利用mathematicalformulas设置干扰，录音只提及网上卖家用复杂的数学公式去帮助做销售决策，新研究的发现可以帮助他们更好地做决策，但没说简化数学公式，因此C选项也不正确。

8.单选题

）television,radioandelectronicmailtobombardpeoplewithmanymessages.

问题1选项

A.via

B.amid

C.past

D.across

【答案】A

【解析】考查介词辨析。via经过，通过，凭借；amid在……中间；past越过，超过；across穿过，横穿。句意：电信的发展使消息通过电视、收音机和电子邮件的传递得以实现，爆炸式地向人们传递大量信息。由空格后的内容可知，此空意为通过……的方式，答案A。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:C

第3题:A

第4题:B

第5题:C

【解析】1.词义题。Usingpublicopinionpolls,focusgroups,andothermarketresearchtechniquesinalimitedroleasinformationaltoolsisonething:usingthemasanexcusetoduckourresponsibilitytothepublictrustisquiteanother.利用民意调查、焦点小组和其他市场调查技术作为有限的信息工具是一回事，利用它们作为借口（）我们对公众的责任是另一回事。由借口可推测出是逃避对公众的责任。故C项正确。

2.语义题。HarryTrumanoncesaidthat,ifMosesbadtakenapublicopinionpoll,hewouldneverleftEgypt.哈里•杜鲁门曾经说过，如果摩西•巴特过去做了民意调查，他就不会离开埃及。由此可知摩西巴特过去没做过民意调查，并且他已经离开了埃及。故C项正确。

3.细节事实题。由第一段“Asjournalismbecomesmoreandmorecompetitive,allofus-whetherinbroadcastnewsorinprint(somemaywanttoarguethatthisistruemoreofbroadcastnews,andIperhapswouldn’twanttodebatethat)-arefallingbackonthetriedandtruelocalnewsformulas.随着新闻变得越来越有竞争力,我们所有人——无论是在广播新闻或已出版的新闻(有些可能会认为这是正确的广播新闻,我也许不想辩论)——回落在尝试和真正的本地新闻公式。由此可知在美国，人们更关注当地新闻。故A项正确。

4.观点态度题。本文第二三四段所提到的内容都带有作者的评论。故本篇文章的口吻是评论性的。B项正确。

5.判断推理题。由第二段“Andforjournaliststobecomeslavestomarketresearch-likethepoliticiansbeforeus-is,Isubmit,mostdangerousofall.Wherearethepublishers,editors,andreportersofgrit,gumption,andguts?Wherearetheoneswhowillfollowtheirconscienceoreventheir“nosefornews”insteadofthepublicopinionpolls?我认为，记者成为市场研究的奴隶——就像我们之前的政客一样——是最危险的。那些关于勇气、进取心和胆量的出版商、编辑和记者在哪里?那些凭良心、甚至凭嗅觉而不是凭民意来判断新闻的人在哪里？”可知作者认为记者应该有自己的判断力，而不是听信民意调查。故C项正确。
