15.B

16.gripgrip解析：显然，此空应填一个动词“握，拿”，英语中握笔用动词grip。

17.readyready解析：顾客来到结算处，说明他们准备好了要付账。bereadyto的意思是“准备好了做某事”。故答案为ready。

18.dividedivide解析：根据上下文语境，这里是“分为”，divide…upinto意为“把…划分为”。所以此处应填动词“divide”。

19.productionproduction解析：从前一句话“Themanufacturersgobeyondonlytellingconsumersabouttheirproducts.”可以看出，一方面广告要介绍自己的产品，而第二个目的就是卖掉自己的产品。所以这里作者想要表达的意思是“广告要使得顾客有一种购买的欲望去购买自己的产品。”故答案为production。

20.toto解析：revertto意为“重想，重提”，此句意为“如果你经常提到‘我们以前已经试着这样做了，但是不管用’就会很快地挫伤这种好问的头脑”。

21.accordingaccording解析：accordingto意为“根据”，为固定短语，本句句意为“根据对…的严格调查，…。”

22.thosethose解析：文章中提到“16-19岁之间的日本青年跟25-29岁之间的青年对比”，这里缺少代词，替代“Japaneseyouth”。所以此处应填“those”

23.fromfrom解析：“来自…的数据”，要用介词“from”。所以此处应填“from”。

24.whatwhat解析：显然，此空后的句子应为"obscure”的宾语从句，而“isbeingwritten”中缺主语，可做主句的宾语、从句的主语的只有what。

25.thatthat解析：此空之后的内容为suggests的内容，即此处应填that，引导宾语从句。

26.C解析：由C中的howitworks中的第二条“Thismeansyoudon'tneedtousesomuchgasorelectricitytoheatyourwaterathome.”可知答案为C。

27.B解析：由文章第一段第一句“Insuranceissupposedtoprovideprotectionagainstfinancialrisks…”可知。

28.C解析：由C中的第二段“Itisnowconsideredthecenterofindustry，transportation，commerceandfinanceinthemid-westarea．”可知答案为C。

29.A解析：由A中的第二段“…toillustratehowenvironmentalqualitycanbeincludedformallyinmeasuresofnationalincome，socialwelfareandsustainability．”可知。

30.C解析：由C中的第二段“…asubstantialagriculturesector，whichcontributestodeforestation，theerosionofthetopsoilanddesegification．hasledtoextremepressuresontheenvironmentand…”可知。

31.B解析：由B中的后面部分“Themostimportantconstructions…HeavenKitchen,…othersofhistoricinterestandscenicbeauty.”可知。

32.EE解析：文章第一段讲述了毒藤会使人过敏产生疹子，第三段提到85%的人对毒藤中的urushiol过敏，选项E介绍了urushiol一词的来源，并且介绍了毒藤使人过敏的根本原因就是毒藤中含有这种化学物质。所以本题应选E。

33.D解析：由短文第六段可知答案为D。

34.B解析：此题是有关作者态度的问题。由第5、6段可以看出女客服的回答两人很不满，很沮丧。所以本题应选B。

35.B解析：由第四段中的“Thehorsesarelessaffectedthanamanwouldbe，andwhentheelectriceelshaveexhaustedthemselves，theycanbecaughtwithoutdanger．”可知。

36.D解析：由短文最后一段中的“Butnewmaterialshavenoimpactuntiltheyaremadeintoproducts．．．willdeterminethesuccessorfailureofacountryinthecomingfuture．”。

37.A解析：由全文看，作者在讲述一种观点：当联合国(UN)犹豫不决时，第三世界已经采取了行动。

38.D解析：第二段第一句提到“…butoldwastefulhabitsdiehard”，可知虽然美国人开始回收利用一些物品，但是那种浪费的旧习惯依然不好消除b最后一句话“…itcanbecomestrongeronlyasAmericansseetheneedforitmoreclearly．”也说明了只有当美国人真正意识到环保的重要性，他们才能更好的具有环保意识，言外之意就是说他们依然没有完全意识到环保的重要性。故应选D。

39.CC解析：上一段中提到的“myth”是有关家庭关系的问题，担心家庭关系会因为老龄化问题而使亲人之间疏远。C中研究中心的伦理学家对这一问题进行了佐证。年长者对家庭需要贡献的角色越来越重要，所以这些担心都是没必要的，可以找到解决措施的。

40.D解析：文章的第一段最后一句话“Evenwhenanti-academicarthistorians．．．，Botticelli’sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste…．”，就算当时很多正统的艺术风格被批判，波提切利的作品也没有引起重视，认为他的作品不随人们的口味，既满足不了专业人士的品位，也不能满足业余人士的欣赏要求。这里的undervalue的意思是“低估，没有重视”，故应选D。

41.B由短文第二段中的“Differentkindsoftaxeshelptospreadthetaxburden．．．Thatiswhythethreelevelsofgovernmentinthiscountry．．．thisspreadstheburdenoftaxesamongmorepeople．”。

42.F此空上两段为作者及他朋友对幸福的诠释，所以此空应为总结。

43.A由A中的“…theCollegehaspioneeredtheuseofvideoconferencingtechnologyasawayofimprovingitscurriculum．”可知。

44.A短文解析

本文介绍了几种会放电的鱼。放电的鱼中，最为人所知的就是电鳐，它们脑部有一些细胞含有电板，触摸电板的两极就会放电，电击的强度取决于鱼的大小。还有一种著名的放电鱼就是电鳗，电鳗的放电强度还要大一些。电鳗的电流是从头部传到尾部的，放电器官是变化的肌肉。尼罗河中的鲶鱼和其他非洲淡水鱼的导电途径是从尾到头，虽然电流强度不如前两种鱼，但也不怎么令人舒服。放电的能力为这些鱼提供了防卫和进攻的本领，可以击退强敌。

答案解析：

由文章第四段中的“Anotherfamousexampleistheelectriceel．Thisfishgivesallevenmorepowerfulshock．”可知。

45.CC第一段最后一句为“…theyevokethemoodofgothichorrorthat…”。2022-2023年湖南省邵阳市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
