参考答案

1.completelysatisfiedcompletelysatisfied解析：文章第十一段中提到Symonds先生说他和和他的同事对作者的回答完全满意。

2.ittakesyouslowlythanheartattackittakesyouslowlythanheartattack解析：参见第11段倒数7～5行：Themorepainorsufferingsomethingcauses，themoretendtofearit,thecleaneroratleastquickerthedeath，thelessittroubleus．第12段第1句：Aid，whichtakeyouslowlycomparedwithaheartattack．虽然心脏病在数秒内即可致人于死地，但正因其快，所以不像艾滋病那样让人恐惧。

3.YY解析：根据题干中的信息词statesupport和shrinking定位到第二个小标题下的第一段，可知大学强调自己涨学费是为了支付前沿科技、教职管理人员的工资和医疗保健等费用，而现在政府因预算吃紧，对大学的扶持也在缩减。由此可知，该句表述正确。

4.thehoursofthenightthehoursofthenight解析：由“WaterClocks”部分第三句“Mostoftheseclockswereusedtodeterminethehoursofthenight，butmayhavealsobeenusedduringdaylight．”可见水钟主要用于夜间计时。故本题答案为“thehoursofthenight”。

5.A解析：由题干中amixtureofblood可定位到第一个小标题下第一段末句Whilesomesleddogsmayhavewolfbloodlines,it'sgenerallynetdesirabletohaveamixtureofbloodbetweenthetwo．题目问关于人们对狼和狗杂交的态度，原文指出这是it'sgenerallynotdesirable(总体说来并不需要)。故A“不鼓励”符合文意。

6.A解析：定位句中讲到Theright-handcontroltwiststoselectthevehicle'sdirection，意思为“转动右手控制器可选择飞行方向”，该句后半部分又讲到italsomovesforeandafttocontrolspeedandbraking，即右手控制器也可以控制速度和制动。由此，可以判断题干正确。

7.C解析：本题定位十分容易。解题的关键在于注意KaZaAandSkype前的unlike一词，这表明此句中包含Joost与KaZaA和Skype的不同之处。选项C项中的threaten等同于文中的disrupt。所以，本题答案为C项。

8.thatsamepersonthatsameperson解析：文章第三段中提到在亚洲谈判自始至终最好尽可能由同一个人来完成。

9.B解析：该句中的...aresourcesuchastheNewfoundlandfisherycollapses，itismoreatragedyofgovernmentnegligencethanatragedyofthegeneralpublic.，即政府更应该负更多的责任，故[B]为答案。

10.firerisks

11.A解析：本题定位信息是lowconfidencelevel，涉及经济衰退的原因，从而锁定小标题…MustComeDown下的第二段首句；顾客和生产商的信心水平对经济衰退有一定影响(playsarole)。题干是对本句的同义转述，即题干中的onefactorthatgenerally对应本句中的oneofthegeneralfactors。题干表述与文章事实相符，因此答案为Y。

12.TheWashingtonMonument。TheWashingtonMonument。解析：此空的解题关键是文中第三段的最后一句，"Thisis,ofcourse,thehighest'needle'intheworld!—theWashingtonMonument."

13.A解析：文章在第一部分的最后谈到"Intheabsenceofofficialnumbers,withtheheightenedtensionsurroundingracialissues,andwiththemutualsuspicionthatexistsamongcompetingracialandethnicinterestgroups,there'slittleagreementonwhatintermarriagewillmeanforU.S.societythefuture",这里提到了“由于缺乏官方数据、种族问题情势口趋紧张、相互竞争的种/民族利益集团间相互猜疑,人们对异族婚姻在未来美国社会中的影响还没有形成一致看法。”

14.medicaldebtsmedicaldebts解析："Healthinsurance"部分中提到"abouthalfofpersonalbankruptciesintheU.S.arecausedinpartbymedicaldebts"。

15.B解析：细节题。题文为“在美国参加聚会时，你永远不应该迟到，因为迟到会被视为不礼貌”。根据关键词"Americanparty，late"定位于"Fashionablylate"的标题下。该部分最后提到"Inotherwords，apartyisoneofthoserateoccasionswhereyourpunctualitycanactuallyhurtyou"，可以得知“有些时候准时反而有害无利，聚会就是这种为数不多的场合之一”，题干表达的意思正好与此相反。因此，答案为[N]。

16.A解析：从Bob所写信的字里行间我们发现，他的脑袋里想的都是如何在England打开bluejeans的市场。如“Lee，IthinkLondonwillprovetobeaverybigmarketforCowboyJeans．I'msureofit”“Iwanttospendalldaytomorrowwritingmyreport.”等。

17.web-mailweb-mail解析：此处需要填入名词作介词to的宾语。从原文可知，因为网络邮件的使用使得社会网络越来越开放。此处thatoldernextbigthing即指web-mail，故此处填入web-mail即可。

18.B解析：“EffectofMultitasking．．．”小节部分的第2段：如果持续不断的邮件提醒使我们感到自己有价值、被需要，那么multitasking(多项工作同时进行)可能让我们产生积极的感受；但如果multitasking达到了极端程度会出现什么结果呢?你会受不了，会处于神经崩溃的危险境况。

19.thosefortheAfricanNegroesthosefortheAfricanNegroes解析：在文章的十一、十二段，作者写到早期白人坐船到美国的条件比非洲黑人要好得多。

20.between60°Fand70°Fbetween60°Fand70°F解析：由题干中temperature可定位到第三个小标题下第四段第二句：Booksshouldbestoredawayfromradiatorsandkeptinaroombetween60°Fand70°F．此处要求填入表示温度的词作表语。题干问藏书所需的适当温度是多少。根据该句可知，书籍应在60°F至70°F间保存。因此句中的温度between60°Fand70°F符合题干要求。

21.Atthistimeveryyoungchildrenusedtoworkinfactoriesandminesandclearchimneys.Atthistime,veryyoungchildrenusedtoworkinfactoriesandminesandclearchimneys.

22.C

23.theincreasemayworsendroughtconditionsasmoremountainglaciersandsnowpacksvanishnolongersendingwatertothevalleysbelowtheincreasemayworsendroughtconditionsasmoremountainglaciersandsnowpacksvanish，nolongersendingwatertothevalleysbelow

24.fusingfusing解析：语义推断题。前文提到，爵士乐把非洲与欧洲的音乐成分融合在一起，南后文的intoanewculture可知，这两种文化会产生一种新文化，形成一种美洲所独有的表现形式。结合录音不难填出fusing。

25.C

26.B解析：WhyisKharrazi'svisittotheUnitedKingdomregardedas"animportantlandmark"?

四个选项都是以Because开头的，引导的是原因状语从句，判定此题是对问题的解释。

问题是为什么伊朗部长把访问英国看成是重要的里程碑，原因就在于一直以来西方世界同家都在制裁伊朗，双方关系很僵持，thetenserelationshipbetweenWesterncountriesandIranbegantoease，因此此次访问的意义在于打破僵局，使得双方重新开始和平谈判。因此本题选B)。

27.B解析：Whyisthecoupesopopularwithstudents?

28.A解析：由对话中男士提到的Iprefertotakethepostofsalesmanager(我想担任销售经理一职)可知，男士在申请职位，故答案为[A]。takethepostof．．．意为“担任…职位”。appealtosb．意为“吸引某人”。

29.B

30.remarkableremarkable解析：此处应该填入一个形容词，修饰和限定后面的名词thing。

31.C解析：本题是因果题。从severalbanksfailedtoopeninacitywhereMrs.Vaughtlived．可以得知原因。

32.A解析：选项大部分以原形动词开头表明，本题可能考查行为动作。前三项都与选择有关，而[D]却说的是没有选择，与其他三项明显不同，故可首先排除。再根据对话中的Shouldweagreetotheraiseorfindsomewhereelse?以及Iwonderwhetherhe'llallowroomfornegotiation可知，对话双方有两种选择，即留下来协商或搬走，故答案为[A]。

33.D解析：M:IwishIdidn'thavetomakeaspecialtriptothepostofficetogetmypackage.

W:Well,ifyoucalltheminthemorningthey'llgiveyourpackagetoyourmailcarriertobringouttoyou.

Q:Whatdoesthewomansuggestthemando?

34.proficientproficient解析：空前的are以及空格后的at表明此处应填一形容词。beproficientat指“精通，擅长”。

35.ChoosefromanofficialtaxicounterwhereyoupayasetpriceinadvanceorwalkacrosstheairportcarparkaridhailameteredcabChoosefromanofficialtaxicounter,whereyoupayasetpriceinadvance,orwalkacrosstheairportcarparkaridhailameteredcab

36.B

37.Individualstudentscancommunicatewiththeirteachersandtalkwithouttherelativenervousnessofhavingtomeetatspecificplacesandtimes.Individualstudentscancommunicatewiththeirteachersandtalkwithouttherelativenervousnessofhavingtomeetatspecificplacesandtimes.

38.C解析：短文说，在50年前，Routemaster，也就是redbus，取代了无轨电车，现在又将被现代巴士所取代。故答案是C。

39.A解析：综合推断题。由对话中的关键词ontheshelves，bookhasbeenborrowedfromhere和lookitupinthecomputer可知，对话应该发生在图书馆，所以A正确。

40.definitiondefinition解析：空中应填一名词与by构成介宾短语在句中作状语。definition意为“定义”，注意不要将词尾拼写成-ation。

41.B解析：此题为细节题，需要找出正确项。短文第六段提到“Campcanbealearningexperienceforthewholefamily.”，全家都从文化营中获得了一种学习的经历，也就是说全家都从中获益了，故B项“家长和养子均能得益于文化营”为正确选项。

42.C解析：细节理解题。本题答案选C。本题考查对第四段的理解，该段提到只有13％的六岁到十一岁的儿童看上午的节日(儿童节目，而多数儿童则看晚上的(成人节目，因此答案选C。

43.showthedrughasrobustanti-viraleffectsinpeopleshowthedrughasrobustanti-viraleffectsinpeople解析：根据题干中的关键词StevenYoung和fasttrackstatus定位到倒数第三、四段，可知StevenYoung表示，他们需要得到表明药物在人体中有强力抗病毒效果的数据，而如果他们可以得到那样的数据，他们就可以申请快速审查，由此可得答案。

44.lowerlower解析：文中在讲到好奇心所表现出的智力水平时提到，Curiosityaboutgeneralpropositionsshowsahigherlevelofintelligencethandoescuriosityaboutparticularfacts，即相比对特殊事实的好奇心来说，对一般命题的好奇心要显示出更高的智力水平。题干将两者的比较位置进行了调换，因此应填入与higher相对的lower修饰levelofintelligence。
