13.Apuzzle

14.A

15.B

16.proportionproportion解析：此处意为很大比例的学生仍然喜欢简单的工作，所以此处应填“proportion”。

17.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。

18.atat解析：某大学的教授，应为“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案为介词“at”。

19.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。

20.gogo解析：gotoone'sheads的意思是“展现、表现”，俗语。用在文中表示“把…写在脸上”，生怕别人不知道的显摆。故答案为go。

21.forfor解析：解析见上题。desire后面用介词for。故答案为for，表示“…的欲望”。

22.andand解析：这三个分词短语是并列的，故中间的连词只能用and。

23.onon解析：focuson意为“集中于”，为固定短语。

24.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。”

25.awareaware解析：beawareof，固定搭配，意为“意识到”。所以此处应填“aware”。

26.D解析：由D中“King'sCrossusedtoberenownedforproblemsincludingdrugs，prostitutionandstreetcrime”，意为“KingCross过去因吸毒，卖淫和街头犯罪等问题而著称”我们可以看出。所以此处答案为D。

27.A解析：由A中第三段中“TheunpopulararchitecturehasledtotheareabeingcalledtheMiltonKeynesofLondon”，A中多处提到Rotherhithe的建筑风格很老套。所以此处答案为A。

28.BB解析：由下一段第—句“Thepoker-lovingLouis-Dreyfusknew…”可知此空处填B最合适，因为“Louis-Dreyfus，scionof…”必定在下一段之前逻辑上才讲得通。

29.B解析：由文章倒数第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetailtothehead．”可知。

30.C解析：文章开始就提出“WhatnewvaluesshouldAmericansadopt?”指出美国人应该具有什么样的价值观念。接着作者列出了自己的观点，所以整个文章是围绕着“价值观念”的论点展开。故应选C。

31.A解析：由A中的最后一句话“…withafictionalTVwitchbeingplayedbyanhonest—to—Godreallifewitch．”可知。

32.D解析：由D中的“ValparaisoUniversitycombinesliberalartswithprofessionalstudiesandpromotesservicetoothers”可知。

33.C解析：从第一段最后一句话“Botticelli'sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste,pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs.”可知，作者讲述了那些评论家，不管是业余的还是职业的，他们都不满意它的作品风格。所以这个词的意思可能是“对作品做出评论的那些业余人士”。故应选C。

34.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。

35.C解析：由C中的第一段“Lookatthetitleofthemovie．TeamAmerica：WorldPolice．ThisdefinitelysoundslikeAmerica．thebigbrothertotheworld，whetherpeoplewantustobeornot．”可知。

36.FF解析：第一个“myth”认为随着人口老龄化的增长，西方国家的医疗体系会瘫痪。研究中的一位人口统计学家指出问题的关键是要建成灵活自由的医疗服务结构。

37.B解析：由第一段可知，两人是因为肥胖而被送进医院的，故B项正确。A、C项文章中未提到。两个病人不能证明fatlash运动高涨，故D项是错误的。

38.BB解析：由此空下面一段段意及B中的“…Itseemed，Edwinathought…”可知B与下一段前后呼应。

39.C解析：选项A即心理学家已经放弃，而生物学家正在展开研究工作。而文中第三句话说“Psychologistsviewthesubjecteitherasamatteroffrustrationorajoke．”即心理学家认为这个研究不是一件沮丧的事，就是一个笑话，此句和选项A含义不一样。选项B即大脑区别显示出一个性别优于另外一个性别。而文中第一段最后一句话说“Butbeingdifferent，theypointouthurriedly，isnotthesameasbei

40.D解析：第四段提到基因疗法遭受的一起挫折——一个病人因接受基因疗法而死亡；接着讲专家担心运动员利用基因在比赛中作弊会进一步tarnish这一领域，从上下文逻辑推理，应该是“有损，玷污”这一类的意思，因此正确答案为D。

41.A由全文看，作者支持的一种观点是“为所有人创造工作机会是不可能的”。

42.C由短文第四段中的“Sincetheverydistantgalaxiesarethou-sandsofmillionsoflightyearsaway，thenweareseeingthemastheywerethousandsofmillionsofyearsago．”可知。

43.A由A中的最后一句话“…withafictionalTVwitchbeingplayedbyanhonest-to-Godreallifewitch．”可知。

44.A由整篇文章可知，本文主要传达的信息为“食盐致病理论没有道理”。

45.B由第一段中的“Thisprimevalatomexplodedfor．．．atwhichtimethegalaxiesformed．”可知。2022年山西省吕梁市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
