15.Artandscience

16.worseworse解析：“the+比较级，the+比较级”，意为“越…越…，”根据上下文，本句句意为“身边的小玩意儿越多，事情似乎就会变得越糟糕。”所以此处应填“worse”。

17.boughtbought解析：本句的前一句话说“顾客认为他们需要一些他们其实不需要的商品。”这就是广告的作用。但是买完之后，“他们却不知道当时为什么买了这种商品。”这里是被动的句式。故答案为bought。

18.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。

19.ofof解析：“对现实的了解”的英文表达是“theunderstandingofreality”，这里的介词用of。故答案为of。

20.whichwhich解析：由此句句子成分分析，此空以后的应为定语从句，修饰characteristics，所以此空应填which，引导定语从句。

21.losinglosing解析：根据上下文的意思，很多年轻一代的日本人已经不再尊重父母，不再对家庭有责任感，所以这里用。losing表示“渐渐失去了”。所以此处应填“losing”。

22.useuse解析：后面的一句话"Theexpressionis‘both-feet-on-the-ground．’”表示down-to-earth的另一种表达方法是both-feet-on-the-ground。而后一种说法是美国人的用法，常常被美国人使用。故答案为use。

23.foundfound解析：此句意为“1,000名受访者中有70%的发现，相对于其他设备来说，在使用手机时人们表现出最差的礼仪”，所以答案为“found”。

24.betweenbetween解析：此句意为“Thomas先生尽管不能在握笔方式和拼写准确性之间建立重要的统计学联系，…”所以答案为介词between。

25.whatwhat解析：这句话的意思是“这就是商家和卖者希望顾客们做的事情”，what引导的是一个表语从句，故答案为what。

26.D解析：原文对应信息是：“Eagertoboosttheirmagazinerankings，whicharebasedinpartonthetestscoresOfenteringfreshmen．they'rethrowingmoreaidatsmarterkids—whethertheyneeditornot．”该句话说明“学校为了提高其杂志排名，就给那些比较聪明的孩子经济上给予较大的帮助，不管他们需不需要帮助”。由此可以看出，急需帮助的学生并不一定就能

27.C解析：通过全文的理解，我们可以发现作者在列数了经济形势不好的局面之后，也表明了人们对此依然存在着乐观态度，有的人还能从中受益，所以作者的态度应该是“对此加以注意，但不要惶恐。”故应选C。

28.D解析：在第三段中女主人公意识到也许在四点的服务的原因是经过精心策划的而不是随意粗鲁的习惯，假期小费从随意的一句谢谢发展成为黑社会的保护勒索，所以作者是被迫的给假期小费的。因此正确答案为D。

29.D解析：此题问技术员的回答如何。文章中“ButIdoneedit．”“Yes．butyoudon'thaveit．”Wewentonlikethisforawhile．Finally,heofferedtowalkmethrough…可以看出“技术员最后是在敷衍作者，没有提出一个合理的解决办法”。所以本题应选D。

30.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案为C。

31.B解析：由B中的第二段“Thecitywithitsgoodharborwasdiscoveredasearlyas1524，anditwasestablishedbyDutchwhonamedthecityNewAmsterdam．”可知答案为B。

32.FF解析：此空填入F，上下文衔接，意思连贯。

33.B解析：由B中“BarnessitsjustacrosstheriverfromHammersmithinsouthwestLondon，butitcouldnotbemoredifferentfromthenoiseandbustleoftheoppositebank．”可以看出Barnes与其对岸喧嚣吵闹的城市完全不同。所以此处答案为B。

34.A解析：由A中内容的introduction中“…providingaround20％oftheworld’selectricity．”可知答案为A。

35.EE解析：由上一段中提到的“…whengeneticallymixedwithawildstrainofmushroom…”可知，只有E放在此处才能使上下段衔接，意思连贯。

36.C解析：文章第二段对于基因治疗的方式的解释是用于治疗的基因通过“virusesthatdon'tcausehumandisease”进入体内，就好像“特洛伊木马”一样，由此可见，这些病毒是无害的。因此正确答案为C。

37.B解析：由短文第一段最后一句“Exoticplastics，glassandceramicswillshapethefuturejustassurelyashavegeneticengineeringandcomputerscience．”可知，本文提到了三种新材料。

38.C解析：A、B、D在文中均提到，是正确的，而C不对，文中提到“Youwouldexpectthemtofindtheirfriendsfromtheirprofessionalassociates,butthisisnotthecase.Rather,theyprefertomakefriendswiththenormalfolkintheirdistricts.”

39.A解析：pressing意为“紧迫的，急迫的”。

40.B解析：talkshop意为“谈公事”。

41.BA

《家有仙妻》这部电影改编于1964—1972年在ABC公司陆续播出的一部情景喜剧。讲的是一个野心勃勃的女巫师与一个凡人的婚姻爱情故事。剧中主角Isabel由NicoleKidman扮演。而Isabel是一名真正的巫师。Isabel厌倦了巫术给自己带来的一切，决定回到SanFemand0山谷中的家，靠自己的双手生活，但是后来却被Wyat发现，让她出演片中的女巫师角色。这样，一个真正的巫师却饰演一个虚构的巫师。

B

二战对于美国乃至世界来说都是一件关键性的事件，它具有很强的影响力，而影片《拯救大兵瑞恩》中的故事就发生在二战期间。米勒将军(汉克斯主演)要去营救四兄弟中最小的一个，也是惟一的幸存者——瑞恩(戴蒙主演)，他认为要通过敌军的封锁线是战争中最大的挑战，但是最艰难的任务是寻找并安全带回瑞恩。这个感人的故事为硝烟弥漫、战事纷杂的l944年涂上一抹庄重的色彩。

C

《美国之队：世界警察》这部电影讽刺了各种的政治观点、主要的电影制作者，甚至别的国家。看这个题目就感觉美国是世界老大，不管别人承认与否。电影场景从法国巴黎开始，通过说明巴黎离美国多远。显示了美国的民族优越感。同时剧情反恐的故事反映了美法之间的紧张局势。随着剧情的展开，美国这种自豪感越发的上升。最后说明天下没有免费的午餐的道理。

D

作者认为《教父》这部电影尽管看了许多次，但是都没有找出瑕疵。从电影的各个角度来说，它被认作是当今最好的5部电影之一。《教父》的影响之大，以至于后来的“团伙犯罪”电影都掺杂了这部影片的电影元素在里面。但是这并不是说这部电影只是一部关于暴力的电影，其他方面，如社会环境、道德价值、灵魂，权势等对人的影响都有所体现。

答案解析:

由B中的第一段最后一句话“Ithasbeencalled‘thelastgreatwar．”’可知。

42.D短文赏析

9．11事件后，网络隐私问题成为了一个急需解决的问题。人们为找到保护公民自由和防止类似的恐怖事件之间的平衡而争论不休。为了应对恐怖袭击，国会通过一系列的法律对各种形式的交流进行监控，但这引来了公民隐私权的侵犯问题。在不断的反对声中，尽管各州政府设立法律保护公民的网络隐私，但是联邦却没有出台明确的法律，所以并不能对无界限的网络隐私起到实质性的保护作用。作者认为政府也应该采取法律措施对网站采集顾客个人信息的做法进行一定的管理。

答案解析:

文章开始就指出“…sparkingdebateoverstrikingthecorrectbalancebetweenprotectingcivillibertiesandattemptingtopreventanothertragicterroristact．”这说明作者认为一方面要防止类似的恐怖袭击活动，但另一方面也要注意保护公民的隐私权利，而且这双方面应该取得平衡。故应选D。

43.A文章后面指出其实基因治疗的原理和克隆的原理两者完全是可以通用的，具体的解题点在于文章的第五段第一句话“mesameappliestocloning”。故应选A。

44.C由文章第二段可知C不对，而A、B、D文中均提到了。

45.C这个题考察的是对后面几段的归纳。首先在第三段开始“Dr．MaquetusedallelectronicdevicecalledPET．．．theypracticedataskduringtheday，andastheysleptduringthefollowingnight．”这是一种对比性的研究方法。后来的第四段最后“…theirresponsetimeswhentheywokeupwereevenquickerthanwhentheywenttosleep．”也采用了对比的分析研究，故应选C。2021年四川省绵阳市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
