B.Forgetit

C.Ireallyenvyyou

D.Ican'tagreemore参考答案：C试题分析：考查情景交际。句意：——我要去圣弗朗西斯科几几天。——真羡慕你。我多么希望我也可以离开一会儿呀。Ireallyenvyyou含义是我真羡慕你，与Iwish相呼应，符合语境；Itdoesn’tmatter没有关系；forgetit别提了；Ican’tagreemore完全赞同，均不符合语境，排除。故选C。12.Somepeoplearegoodat________butbadatgivingback.A.borrowingB.takingC.bringingD.lending参考答案：A解析：与下文的giveback（偿还，归还）相对，表示“有借无还”。13.—WhyaretheWoodssellingtheirbelongings?—They

B.istocompeteC.weretocompete

60-64BADCA【文章大意】修改是作品写作过程中非常重要且必须的步骤。文章讲叙了作品修改的目的和途径。50.答案：C考点：本题考查名词辨析解析：参照下文的“AndrewLloydWebber'smusicalPhantomoftheOperaunderwentsuchaprocess.”和“However.don'tmakethemistakeofskippingtherevisionstage”。名词technique（技术）、style（风格）、career（事业、生涯）都不符题意。本题难度适中。51.答案：D考点：本题考查介词短语辨析解析：前面adding,deleting,replacing,reordering都是revising的方面，所以revising和这些名词同义；介词短语inotherwords表示“换句话说”。介词短语inparticular（尤其、特别表强调）、asaresult（因此，表结果）、forexample（例如，表举例说明）都不符题意。本题难度适中。52.答案：A考点：本题考查动词辨析解析：动词skip（跳远）、reject（拒绝、抵制）replace（取代）都不符题意。人们观看的是完美的表演，但表演之前作品经历了（undergo）多次修改，与上段的“AndrewLloydWebber'smusicalPhantomoftheOperaunderwentsuchaprocess.”对应。本题难度适中。53.答案：A考点：本题考查动词辨析解析：动词release（释放、赦免、发行）、record（记录、录音）、reserve（保留、预订）都不符题意。动词rewrite表示“重写、修改”，与动词revise同义，与本篇文话题相关。本题难度适中。54.答案：B考点：本题考查介词短语辨析解析：介词短语inadditionto表示“而且、除…之外还有”，inoppositionto表示“与...的意见相反”，incontrastto表示“与...形成对比”，都与本题不符。inresponseto（作为对┄的反应）在本句表示“你修改作品是对你想改进作品目的的一种回应”本题难。55.答案：D考点：本题考查形容词辨析解析：freshideas与后面的newlydiscoveredinformation对应。本题难度适中。56.答案：B考点：本题考查副词辨析解析：副词Moreover（而且）类似与butalso表递进含义，与前面句notjust（only）呼应。副词However（然而，表转折关系）、Instead（作为替代、反而，表相反含义）、Therefore（因此，表原因）都不符题意。本题难度适中。57.答案：B考点：本题考查动词辨析解析：switchtopics（变换标题）属于修改作品的一部分。动词discuss（讨论）、exhaust（汲干、使筋疲力尽）、cover（覆盖、包含）都不符题意。本题难度适中。58.答案：D考点：本题考查动名词辨析解析：名词drafting（起草）、rearranging（重新安排）、performing（表演）都与题意不符。名词training.（培训）在本句表示“排练”，与上文dressrehearsals/tryouts同义。本题难。59.答案：C考点：本题考查名词辨析解析：名词audience（观众）与下句viewyourdressrehearsal对应。名词director（导演）、master（主人、大师）、visitor（来访者）都与题意不符。本题难度适中。60.答案：B考点：本题考查形容词辨析解析：形容词valuable表示“做自己作品的观众能给你有价值的新信息”。形容词personal（个人的）、basic（基本的）、delicate（娇贵的、纤弱的、精美的）都与题意不符。本题难度适中。61.答案：A考点：本题考查动词辨析解析：动词mix在本句表示“修改就是把作品所有方面的有效性和适当性融合在一起”。本题难。62.答案：D考点：本题考查形容词辨析解析：形容词clear在本句表示“我的文章大意或写作意图是否清晰”，与下文confusereaders对应。形容词amazing（令人惊讶的）、bright（明亮的、聪明的）、unique（独特的）都与题意不符。本题难度适中。63.答案：C考点：本题考查名词辨析解析：后句名称facts、opinions、inferences都属于information，与上句newlydiscoveredinformation对应。本题难度适中。64.答案：A考点：本题考查形容词辨析解析：形容词unnecessarydetails表示“多余的信息”反而使读者困惑、误导读者。形容词uninteresting（单调的、乏味的）、concrete（具体的）、final（最终的、决定性的）都与题意不符。本题难。21.阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Sometimes,peoplearerequiredtofillinpersonalinformationwhentheyregisteronline,whichmayleadtosomeunexpectedtrouble.Recently,theBBCisreportingthata17-year-oldgirlinAustraliaposteda(n)
