traffic都指详细[B]句意为：广告中使用的霓虹灯已经成为了每个现代化城市的一大特点。appearance意为“外观”;character意为“特点，特点”;distinction意为“差别”;surface意为“表面”。依据句意，答案为[B]。[A]句意为：在家里，很多节俭劳动力的设施都是由电带动的。四个选项都是复合形容词，labour-saving意为“节俭劳动力的”;time-saving意为“节俭时间的”;energy-saving意为“节能的”;money-saving意为“省钱的”。依据句意，此处填入labour-saving最适合。[C]句意为：即便当我们关上床头灯，睡得很熟时，电仍旧在为我们工作。only意为“只有”;rarely意为“罕有地”;even意为“即便”;frequently意为“屡次地，屡次地”。依据句意，此处应填入even。36.[B]fastasleep为固定搭配，意为“睡得很熟的”，故答案为[B]。quite意为“非常”;quickly意为“很快地”;closely意为“凑近地，凑近地”，均不符合句意，故除去。[D]move意为“挪动”;start意为“启动”;repair意为“修复”;drive意为“驱动，使机器运行”。此处的动词与ourrefrigerators连用，填入driving最适合，意为“使电冰箱正常运行”。[B]bothertodosth.意为“操心做某事”;hesitatetodosth.意为“做某事举棋不定”;remembertodosth.指“记得去做某事”。此处是说，我们操心思虑它们为何或怎样运行，故答案为[B]。[C]句意：直到这些交通工具出问题时，我们才会操心思虑它们为何或怎样运行。前半句出现了rarely，含否认意义，与until搭配使用，意为“直到才”，故答案为[C]。[B]句意为：1959年的夏季，负责给纽约供电的发电厂真的出了问题。当句子中没有其余的助动词时，可以在动词前使用助动词do表示对该动作的重申，助动词do随人称和时态而变化。所以，did符合题意。41.[A]句意为：很多小时过去了，生活几乎阻滞不前。cometoastandstill是固定搭配，意为“停住，阻滞不前”。terminal意为“终点”;breakdown意为“故障”;pause意为“暂停”，均不符合句意，故除去。[B]句意为：火车没法开动，车厢里的人坐在黑暗中力所不及，什么事也做不了。incompetent意为“没有能力的,不可以胜任的”;powerless意为“力所不及的”;hesitant意为“怀疑不决的”;helpless意为“无助的”。此处指人处于停电的环境中力所不及，什么事也做不了，所以答案为[B]。[D]句意为：电梯也停止工作，即便你足够好运，没被困在两层楼之间，也得自己不快乐地步行下楼梯。although意为“固然”;when意为“当时”;as意为“像同样”;evenif意为“即便，即便”。经过分析上下文，此处填入evenif最适合。[D]句意同上。lock意为“把锁起来”;place意为“搁置”;position意为“把放在适合的地点”;trap意为“困住，坠入窘境”。依据上下文意思，此处应当选[D]。45.[C]句意同上。aflightofstairs是固定搭配，表示“(两个楼梯平台间的)一段楼梯”，此题中察看的是复数形式，故答案为[C]。46.[A]inaninstant是固定搭配，意为“瞬时，立刻”，意思相当于immediately，故答案为

[A]。inaminute意为“很快，立刻”，一般用于未来时，不符合句意，故除去。47.[D]asas为固定搭配，表示“像同样”，故答案为[D]。[A]句意为：人们惧怕走开自己的房屋，由于固然警察被要求随时待命，以防突发事件，但他们也像其余人同样迷惑和无助。for表示原由，and表示并列关系，转折，or表示选择。联合上下文，此处填入for最适合。

but表示49.[C]句意同上。standaside意为“避开”;standdown意为“从要职上退下”;standby意为“做好准备，待命”;standin意为“站立于，坐落于”。依据上下文分析，此处应当指警察处于待命状态，故答案为[C]。50.[A]句意同上。helpless意为“无助的”;aimless意为“漫无目的的”;unfocused意为“眼光茫然的”;undecided意为“还没有决定的”。依据句意，此处应选[A]。PARTIVGRAMMARANDVOCABULARY51.Whenyouhavefinishedwiththatbook,don’tforgettoputitbackontheshelf,___C___?don’tyoudoyouwillyouwon’tyouMaryis___A___hardworkingthanhersister,butshefailedintheexam.A.nolessB.nomoreC.notlessD.notso53.WhichofthefollowingstatementsisINCORRECT?答案：DA.Onlyoneoutofsixwerepresentatthemeeting.B.Tendollarswasstolenfromthecashregister.C.Eithermysisterormybrotheriswrong.D.Fivemilesseemlikealongwalktome.54.Whichoftheitalicizedpartsexpressesafuturetense?答案：BA.Myfriendteacheschemistryinaschool.B.I’llgiveittoyouafterIreturn.C.Whatisthematterwithyou?D.LondonstandsontheRiverThames.55.Itisnotsomuchthelanguage__D____theculturalbackgroundthatmakesthefilmdifficulttounderstand.butnorlikeas56.Thereisnodoubt___B___thecommitteehasmadetherightdecisiononthehousingproject.whythatwhetherwhen57.AllthePresident’sMen___A___oneoftheimportantbooksforscholarswhostudytheWatergateScandal.A.remainsremainedremainisremaining58.Ifyouexplainedthesituationtoyourlawyer,he___C___abletoadviseyoumuchbetterthanIcan.waswouldbewere59.Whichofthefollowingisastativeverb(静态动词)?答案：DA.DrinkB.CloseC.RainD.Belong60.Whichofthefollowingitalicizedpartsindicatesasubject-verbrelation?答案：CA.Themanhasalargefamilytosupport.B.Shehadnowishtoquarrelwithherbrother.C.Hewasthelastguesttoleave.D.Maryneedsafriendtotalkto.61.Thefollowingareallcorrectresponsesto“Whotoldthenewstotheteacher?”EXCEPT__B____?A.BobdiditB.BobdidsoC.BobdidthatD.Bobdid.62.WhichofthefollowingisINCORRECT?答案：DA.AnothertwogirlsB.FewwordsC.ThisworkD.Abitofflowers63.WhichofthefollowingitalicizedwordsdoesNOTindicatewillingness?答案：BA.Whatwillyoudowhenyougraduate?B.Theywillbehomebynow.Whenonehasgoodhealth,__C____shouldfeelfortunateA.youB.sheC.heD.weThere__D____nothingmorefordiscussion,themeetingcametoanendhalfanhourearlier.A.tobeB.tohavebeenbebeing66.Twoofherbrotherswere__A__duringtheSecondWorldWar.A.calledupBottlesfromthisregionsell__C____atabout$50acase.A.entirelyB.totallyC.wholesaleD.togetherTheproductcontainsno__B____colours,flavours,orpreservatives.fakeartificialfalsewrong69.Davisacceptedthedefeatinthesemi-finalwithgoodgrace.Theunderlinedpartisclosestinmeaningto___C___.cheerfullywholeheartedlypolitelyquietly70.__C____andbusinessleadersweredelightedatthedecisiontoholdthenationalmotorfairinthecity.CivilCivilizedCivilianCivic71.Thecitycouncilisplanningahugeroad-buildingprogrammetoeasecongestion.Theunderlinedpartmeans__B____.calmrelievecomfortstill72.Hisunfortunateappearancewasoffsetbyanattractivepersonality.TheunderlinedpartmeansallthefollowingEXCEPT___A___.improvedmadeupforbalancedcompensatedfor73.Thedoctorsaidthatthegashinhischeckrequiredstitches.Theunderlinedpartmeans__D____.A.lumpdepressionswellingcutDuringtheeconomiccrisis,theyhadtocutbackproductionand___A___workers.A.layoffB.layintoC.laydownD.layasideTheuniversityconsistentlyreceivesahigh__C____forthequalityofitsteachingandresearch.standardevaluationratingcomment76.Tomarkitsonehundredthanniversary,theuniversityheldaseriesofactivitiesincludingconferences,filmshows,etc.Theunderlinedpartmeans__B____.signifycelebratesymbolizesuggestHisfertilemindkeepsturningoutnewideas.Theunderlinedpartmeans__C____.A.abundantB.unbelievableproductivegenerativeThelocalnewspaperhasa___B___of100,000copiesaday.A.spreadB.circulationC.motionD.flowTheseissueswerediscussedatlengthduringthemeeting.Theunderlinedpartmeans___D___.eventuallysubsequentlylastlyfully80.Acoupleofyoungpeopleweregivingoutleafletsinfrontofthedepartmentstore.Theunderlinedpartmeans___A___.distributinghandlingdividingArrangingPARTVREADINGCOMPREHENSIONTextAGoogle’seyeglassesaresupposedto__B__.[A]improveourmemory[B]functionlikememory[C]helpusseefacesbetter[D]worklikesmartphonesAccordingtothepassage,“cognitivehabits”refersto__A__.[A]howwedealwithinformation[B]functionsofhumanmemory[C]theamountofinformation[D]theavailabilityofinformationWhichofthefollowingstatementsaboutSparrow’sresearchisCORRECT?答案：DWerememberpeopleandthingsasmuchasbefore.WeremembermoreInternetconnectionsthanbefore.Wepayequalattentiontolocationandcontentofinformation.[D]Wetendtorememberlocationratherthanthecoreoffacts.84.Whatdoestheauthormeanby“context”?答案：C[A]Itreferstolong-termmemory.[B]Itreferstoanewsituation.[C]Itreferstoastoreofknowledge.[D]Itreferstothesearchengine.85.Whatistheimpliedmessageoftheauthor?答案：D[A]Webconnectionsaidourmemory.[B]Peopledifferinwhattoremember.[C]Peoplekeepmemoryonsmartphones.[D]Peopleneedtoexercisetheirmemory.TextBWhywastheauthordoingroundsinahospital?答案：C[A]Hehimselfwantedtohavepractice.[B]Studentsofallmajorshadtodoso.[C]Itwaspartofhismedicaltraining.[D]Hewasonaresearchteam.Welearnthattheauthor’steammembershad__D__.[A]muchpracticalexperience[B]adequateknowledge[C]longbeenworkingthere[D]someprofessionaldeficiencyWhiletheauthorwasexaminingMr.Adams,allthefollowingsymptomscaughthisattention
