70.to研究表明，尽管大猩猩的基因中有96%-98%和人类相似，但是大猩猩并不喜欢音乐，音乐欣赏可能是人类特有的能力。61.考查动名词。“theirDNA______(be)96to98percentsimilartothatofhumans”是介词despite的宾语，介词的宾语需用名词或动名词，故该空填being。62.考查时态和语态。句意：在这个研究中，创建了一个自动唱机，它允许大星星们选择它们最喜欢音乐或者仅仅选择沉默。该段介绍的是实验的过程，属于过去的事，故该空应用过去时态。且a“jukebox”和create之间是被动关系，故该空应用被动语态。综上，该空填wascreated。63.考查副词。结合上题中的句意可知，该空修饰动词choose，修饰动词要用副词，故该空填simply。64.考查固定句式。句意：研究发现，和快节奏的流行歌曲相比，它们远离古典音乐的可能性较小。belikelytodosth.是固定句式，意为“可能做某事”。65.考查名词性从句。句意：快节奏可能使大猩猩们失去了兴趣。“_____turnedthechipsoff”是表语从句，该空在从句中做主语，且表示名词意思，故要用what引导该从句。66.考查状语从句。句意：尽管黑猩猩更有可能选择较快的音乐，但是，实际上，它们没有表现出对较慢的古典音乐的偏爱。根据句意，该空引导让步状语从句，故可填Although/Though/While。67.考查冠词。apreferenceforsth.意为“对……的偏爱”，该空位于actual前面，actual的发音开头是元音音素，故该空填an。68.考查名词。句意：实际上，它们对于两种类型的音乐都不感兴趣。both修饰可数名词复数，故该空填types。69.考查名词。句意：这些结果表明：音乐欣赏可能是人类独有的能力。“music____”是主语，主语应用名词，故该空填appreciation。70.考查介词。beuniquetosb.是固定表达，意为“对……来说是独有的”。20.根据句意和括号内的汉语提示,写出下列各句中所缺单词，共10分;每小题1分.满分10分)1.Shedoesn’tknowhowto______________(举止得体)inpublic.2.Whenwewereyoung,weoftensatinthe____________阴凉处)ofabigtree,listeningtoanoldgrandpatellingusstories.3.Thepatientwas______________(观察)overaperiodofseveralmonths.4.Heisamuchlovedandhighly______________(尊敬)teacher.5.Thestarleftthehotelsurroundedby_____________(人群)ofjournalists.6.She’svery________________(谦虚)abouthersuccess.7.TheUnitedStates_______________(出口)soybeans.8.Itistobe_____________(遗憾)thatsomanyyoungpeopleleaveschoolwithoutqualication.
