参考答案

1.abouthtedifferentways

2.twomonthstwomonths解析：本题定位词是“DIY”divorce，从而锁定文章最后一段。该段详细介绍了DIYdivorce的处理程序和要求，从该段第二句Thistypeofdivorcetakesabouttwomonths中可以直接找到本题答案。

3.TheCelebratedJumpingFrogofCalaverasCountyTheCelebratedJumpingFrogofCalaverasCounty解析：马克.吐温开始写作之后，使他一夜成名的第一部作品是TheCelebratedJumpingFrogofCalaverasCounty，其中文译名《卡拉维拉斯县驰名的跳山工》。

4.D解析：根据题干关键词Internet，redefining定位到第七段第三句：TheInternetmayalsoberedefininghowstudents…understandtheconceptofauthorshipandthesingularityofanytextorimage.可知，互联网改变了学生对著作者身份和作品的独特性的理解，故选D

5.hydrogenfuelhydrogenfuel解析：由题干关键词Accordingtocritics，itwillcostmuchmorespending定位到第二个小标题下第四段第二句。批评家们说要寻求用氢做燃料的途径花费会很多，会远远超过总统所提出的十二亿美元。

6.C解析：由题眼定位到TheGrind部分，第五段首句Whileyourself-disciplinewillserveyouwellincollege(orthemilitary)，youmightwanttoaddmoreinspirationtoyourperspiration．(虽然你的自律使你在大学(或军队中)表现良好，但也许你还想为自己的辛勤努力增添一些灵感创造的色彩。)由此可知，本部分内容并没有提及军事学院和普通学院的比较问题。题干内容与原文不符。

7.unaffectedunaffected解析：空白处应为分词或形容词作表语。第8段第5句提到ArethaFranklin的风格是为了说明第4句的内容，这两句也可以连起来理解为:ArethaFranklin的声音“没有修饰过”，因此听起来abitpitchy，因此本题应填写unaf-fected。

8.streetshowsstreetshows解析：本题定位信息是EastHarlemHealthyHeartProgram，从而锁定文章倒数第四段。定位信息出现在该段第二句，但第四句提到的Onewayiteducatesisbystreetshows才与题干中的educationalactivities相关，其中的streetshows正是该活动的主要教育方式和活动内容。

9.long-waveinfraredradiationlong-waveinfraredradiation解析：参见标题THEGREENHOUSEEFFECT下第1段最后一句：Earth'ssurface，inturn，releasessomeofthisheataslong-waveinfraredradiation．

10.A解析：第一个小标题下第三段举例说明绿色建筑技术。其中第一条“建筑师应充分利用太阳光线”，A项与之相符，其中选项中的makefulluseof与原句中takeadvantageof为同义转述。

11.YY解析：参见文中倒数第四段第一句：Thenetannualenergysavingsforadomeowneris30%lessthannormalrectilinear(直线的)homesaccordingtotheOregonDomeCo．(圆顶房屋的住户每年能源节约量要比常规的直线房屋的住户少30%。)

12.livenormallytogetherlivenormallytogether解析：在本文的第六段中提到：“Sowhycansomecouplesweatherfinancialupsanddownswhileotherssplitoverahouseholdbudget?”这整句话的意思是：那么，为什么有的夫妇能够经受住家庭理财的起起落落(问题)，而有的夫妇却因为一笔家庭预算就分道扬镳了

13.havesucceededwithoutit

14.C解析：细节题。根据题干信息词Antipollutionlegislation定位到第六个小标题第二句Withoutthecontinuedpressurefromenvironmentalists，antipollutionlegislationwouldnothavebeenenacted，andmanypollution-reducingdeviceswouldnothavebeeninvented，即：没有来自环境学家的压力，反污染规则不会被实行，许多减少污染的工具也不会被发明，故选C。

15.C解析：定位句意为“技术进步加上经济一体化改变了世界，创造出前所未有的繁荣”。因此该句的主语themixoftechnologyandeconomicintegration即是本题的答案所在。所以本题选C。

16.havesomedocumentspreparedbytheattorney．havesomedocumentspreparedbytheattorney．解析：根据文章"Durablepowerofattorney"部分可以回答。

17.A解析：细节题。中文不但在欧洲国家很流行，在亚洲国家也深受欢迎。文章第12段介绍了中文学习在泰国已经超过了日语而成为第二大最普遍的第二语言。

18.Weshouldincreasetheirtimeofbeingtogethertoimprovetheirrelationship．Weshouldincreasetheirtimeofbeingtogethertoimprovetheirrelationship．解析：考查对文章"PoorChemistryWithaTeacher"部分句子"Havingtheteacherandchildsitdownforlunchtogether..."的概括。

19.prevalenceofobesityprevalenceofobesity解析：本题涉及到老年人口与肥胖人口的关系，从而将题目出处定位到ALittleOlder...部分。该部分第二段总结得出，随着老龄人口的增加，肥胖的趋势也在加大。

20.morepromotableandmoremarketablemorepromotableandmoremarketable解析：参考文章“Sharpeningyourtimemanagementskillsmakesyoumorepermutableandmoremarketable，whichisespeciallyimportantintoday'suncertaineconomy，”Winstondeclares．Yourtimebecomesmorevaluabletoyourselfandtoyouremployer．Thatcanhelpmakeyouindispensable．

21.deficient

22.D解析：M:WhenIstudyChineseIoftengetconfused.Ithinkitistoodifficultforme,andIamconsideringgivingitup.

W:Well,yousee,peoplesayChineseisthemostdifficultlanguageintheworld.

Q:WhatdoesthewomanthinkoftheChineselanguage?

23.B解析：综合推断题。文章第五段指出，Theskillcanbeinstinctual,butinmostcasesit'slearnedthroughhardwork．也就是说，判断人的能力可能是出于本能，但在大多数情况下，都是学习而获得的，故选B。A，C、D三项可分别根据第四段、最后一段和倒数第二段的内容排除。

24.C

25.C解析：该题问“女士上这门课有什么问题”。男士说：“你认为Peterson教授的兵器历史课怎么样啊?他可是这方面著名的学者。”女士说：“他的讲座很有吸引力，但是完成他给的书很困难。我感到自己永远也读不完。说明书太多，读不完。故[C]“她感到读完书单上要求的书很困堆”为正确答案。

26.C解析：Whatproblemdidthemanhavewhenhetookhisreadtestseveralyearsbefore?

27.expenditures

28.billion

29.A解析：词组livesupto指“不辜负”。男的说这个餐馆没有辜负它的荣誉，也就是它就像人们说的那样好。

30.B解析：该题问“根据本段，‘助学金’是什么?”文中提到AnditpointsoutthatAmericanstudentsreceivedarecordamountoffinancialaidlastyear.Studentsdonothavetorepaygrants,unlikefinancialaidintheform.ofloans．(同时指出美国学生去年也收到了前所未有的财政资助。不像其它贷款形式，助学金是不需要还的。)由此可见，助学金是一种财政资助，而且不需要返还。故B项“助学金是一种学生不需要返还的财政资助形式”正确。

31.D解析：判断推理题。女士说要不是交通堵塞，她可以10点钟就赶到教室的。男士说她没能赶到很遗憾，教授一个上午都在到处找她呢。关键句型是虚拟语气句“If...Icouldhave...”，表示“如果……我本可以……”，而实际未能做到。

32.bachelor's

33.included

34.C解析：男士询问女士什么是dialogue，女士回答说，先看看“dialogue”一词的希腊语根源，故选C项。

35.horseback

36.B解析：Whatcanbeinferredaboutthebaggageboys?

37.stimulate

38.D解析：选项和因素有关。本题是细节题。从leadinguptothemisfortune—frustration,tiredness,orjustbadtemper—mostaccidentsinvolveinamomentofcarelessnessorthoughtlessness．可以得知天气因素没有提到。

39.B解析：信息明示题。文章第一段指出，Thestudiesfoundthatagoodnight'ssleepmayimprovememory．由此可知，B正确。

40.Basedona"businessasusual"scenarioinwhichgreenhousegassescontinuetoriseHansensayswe'llbreakthemillion-year-oldrecordinabout45yearsBasedona"businessasusual"scenarioinwhichgreenhousegassescontinuetorise,Hansensayswe'llbreakthemillion-year-oldrecordinabout45years

41.D解析：根据题干关键词RonRosenbaumwatchTVwhilewriting定位到原文第三段最后一句："ButIhaveatheoryof'competingconcentration'...ifyouhavesomethingthatyouhavetofocusagainst...itforcesyoutoconcentrate."可知RonRosenbaum的‘强迫性专注’理论是：如果有件事情是你集中注意力时不得不排除的，它会强迫你集中注意力。即他边看电视边写作的原因是想要找件事情强迫他集中注意力，故选D项。

42.A解析：细节理解题。第一段的第四、五两句“Moreover,thelineranthrough…dowithoutit”，表达了A的意思。

43.B解析：细节题。B“可口可乐公司很重视赞助地方球队”，根据第三段的内容“由于可口可乐试图从底层发展与国家橄榄球联盟的联系而百事可乐策略是从顶层进行交易”，可判断该选项内容正确。

44.B解析：文章第三段第一句话“Therefore，ifthecomputeristocompeteatchampionshiplevels，itmustbeprogrammedtofunctionwithlessthancompletedata．”这句话的意思是说计算机如果要达到冠军水平，它运行起来也不会有完全的数据。因此，选项A是错误的，因为它强调计算机要思考的话，需要足够多的资料。文章中第三段的第二句话“Itmustbeabletolearnfromexperience，tomodifyitsownprogram，todealwitharelativelyunstructuredsituation—inaword，to‘think’foritself.”阐述了计算机的“思考”其实就是从经验当中得到学习，修正自己的程序，以及处理相对不规则情况的能力。因此Blearnfromtheexperienceandreason，从经验中学习并且有推理能力符合上述有关思考的定义。而C中则因为structure这个单词，就可以判定不是正确答案。在第二段中第一第二句话“Allaprogrammerhastodoisgivethecomputeraprogramevaluatingtheconsequencesofeverypossibleresponsetoeverypossiblemove，andthecomputerwillwineverytime.Intheorythisisasensibleapproach；inpracticeitisimpossible”说明了要预测棋子的每一步移动在现实生活中是不可能的，因而选D是错误的，所以这一题选B。

45.safetysafety解析：题干中的及物动词putting表明，本空应填一名词(短语)。根据题干中的Toyoda、seemedtoadmit和priority定位到第五段。其中引言中的第二句提到，丰田汽车的首要任务传统上一直是：第一，安全；第二，品质；第三才是数量。由此可见，safety即是传统意义上首要任务中最为重要的一项。题干中的putting______attoppriority是对文中first的同义转述，故其后的safety为答案。

46.Totestwhetherchildrenarecapableofdeductivereasoning.Totestwhetherchildrenarecapableofdeductivereasoning.解析：从第二段的最后一句“SotheKendlersconcludedthattheywereincapableofdeductivereasoning．”和全文的最后一句“．．．butthisdifficultycannotbetakenasproofthattheyareincapableofdeductivereasoning．”可以推断，三组实验都是根据文章开头所提到的心理学家ClarkHull的理论。来验证实验对象是否有推理能力的。Kendler夫妇的实验对象是儿童。故可以回答为“Totestwhetherchildrenarecapableofdeductivereasoning．”。
