10.B
11.Corn.
12.C
13.A
14.Apostoffice.
15.Completelyseparate/exclusive
16.accordingaccording解析:accordingto为“依据”,为固定短语,意为“根据美国的民意调查”。所以此处填according。
17.AsAs解析:此句意为“…后一种观点的例子,…”显然,空处应填“作为”。
18.andand解析:这三个分词短语是并列的,故中间的连词只能用and。
19.withwith解析:endupwith意为“以…结束,以…告终”,为固定短语。
20.reasonsreasons解析:本段的第一句话提出问题,问为什么在结算处摆设了那么多的商品。很明显,后面的文章对这个问题进行回答,并列举了原因。故答案为reasons。
21.asas解析:such…as意为“这样的…如”。此空后为并列的三个分词短语,即“如”后跟的例举事项。
22.ofof解析:deprivesb.ofsth.为固定短语,意为“剥夺某人的某东西(或某权利)”。
23.paperpaper解析:由前一句“…arenowpaperthrowaways.”可知,“不久以后我们将穿由纸制作的衣服。”
24.againstagainst解析:guardagainst意为“防止,防范,警惕”,为固定短语,against也可以省略。
25.toto解析:“attributeto”意为“把某事归因于”,为固定搭配,所以此处应填“to”。
26.D解析:由D中“TheprojectincludesanewEurostarterminalopeningthisyearandaspruced—upTubestation,alongsidehundredsofnewhomes,officesandleisurefacilitiessettobecompletedin2015.”可以看出将在King’sCross投资建立许多基础设施。所以此处答案为D。
27.D解析:“bitingone'snails”的意思是“一筹莫展”,通过后面的表述,“mostofherclientsspend$12to$50weekly,…”可以看出Spero并不是到了没有顾客的地步,只是越来越少,所以他并没有到达绝望的处境。故应选D。
28.BB解析:该空缺下面的段落都是对每一个“myth”的揭示。谁来揭示呢?B项中提到牛津大学老龄化研究中心成立各个问题研究组。
29.B解析:由B中的disadvantage中“Althoughnotmuchwasteisproduced,itisvery,verydangerous.Itmustbesealedupandburiedformanyyearstoallowtheradioactivitytodieaway.”可知答案为B。
30.C解析:由短文第一段中的“Smithnoted,‘Betweentheamoutofsodiumapersonconsumesandheartdisease,circulatorydisorders,strokeandevenearlydeath.’”可知。
31.D解析:由D中的advantage中的第四句话“Windfarmscanbetouristattractions.”可知答案为D。
32.D解析:由本文第二段可知A、B、C均正确,只有D不对。
33.A解析:文章第一句话对用基因疗法治疗Ashanthi所患罕见疾病的成功给与了很高的评价,并在第一段未指出医生们对基因疗法寄予了极高的期望。因此正确答案为A。
34.A解析:由第四段最后两句话可知,基因并不能决定一切,因此减肥不会因为肥胖基因的干扰而没有任何作用,故A项正确。B项和作者的观点是相反的。D项文中未提到。
35.AA解析:第二个“myth”是担心人口老龄化会使工作人员越来越少。研究中心人员提出应该给年长的人提供各种培训机会。A中“Ourstudiesshowthattherearebenefitsfromhavinganage-integratedworkforce.”说“研究表明不同年龄段的劳动力的融合也会有许多好处”。
36.D解析:文章的结尾,作者说我们不知道学校学生的能力和大脑两半球功能之间的确切关系;我们不懂大脑两半球是如何通过corpuscallosum相互作用的;间接地提出对于corpuscallosum的影响,多作研究工作。所以本题应选D。
37.C解析:由C中倒数第二段中的“GNVQinbusinessstudiesandhealthandsocialcareprovidesanaltemativevocationalpathwayto…”可知。
38.A解析:由A中的“…theCollegehaspioneeredtheuseofvideoconferencingtechnologyasawayofimprovingitscurriculum.”可知。
39.C解析:由全文可以推断,要指出犯罪率下降的确切原因是很困难的。
40.B解析:由B中的内容“Producessmallamountsofwaste.”可知答案为B。
41.C由此空上几段看,均是在讲述Louis-Dreyfus的事,而下一段则提到另一个人MichaelMichalsky,故此空应为C,因为C中讲述的仍是Louis-Dreyfus的事。
42.A由短文第二段中的“Ceramics,forinstance,havelongbeenlimitedbytheirbrittleness.”。
43.D由文章最后一段中的“Thepositivesideofitistherearebetterproducts--they’recheaperandmoreflexible.”可知。
44.A文章第三段第一句“Yettherearegoodreasonstoexpecttheeconomicconsequencesnowtobelessseverethaninthel970s.”和第四段第一句都指出“Richeconomiesarealsolessdependentonoilthantheywere,andsolesssensitivetoswingsintheoilprice.”也就是说各国有很好的理由盼望现在的经济后果会比二十世纪七十年代的情况乐观。发达国家对石油的依赖性较以前有所下降,因而对石油价格变动的敏感度也降低,这些都表明作者是持有乐观态度的。故应选A。
45.B由B中的第三段第二句话“NewYorkhasbecomeoneoftheworld’sbusiestportsandalsothefinancial,manufacturing,andtravelcenterofthecountry.”可知答案为B。2022-2023年四川省宜宾市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
