参考答案

1.C参见第四自然段“…asthesizeandnumberofsunspotsincreased，theover-allenergysentoutbythesunwould：decrease”可得知C正确。

2.B文章第三段第二句“Thebuyingofthehugenorthernlandmassseemedatfirstsomethingfoolishlydone．”以及最后一句的内容，表明正确答案为B项。

3.B

4.A解析：由文章第一段提到的Iwasplanningtostopandvisitafriend可以看出正确答案。

5.C49．以Sam为例告诉读者如何解决问题。这也是全篇的中心。选项C是正确的。

6.C解析：第一段。参见原文。

7.D解析：最后一段。作者提到许多人都会在湿度变高的情况下感觉到天气的变化。根据这个例子可以说明作者认为许多人是能够感觉到天气的变化的。选项D是正确的。

8.B解析：第一段中有相关交待。

9.D37．答案为D。根据第一段最后一句，Itconveysyourhestwishes，congratulations，condolences—whenyouarenotabletodosoinperson作出该项选择。

10.B参考第五段最后一句。

11.A根据文中第一段第一句可知，最早的财富交换形式是物物交换。

12.B解析：这个小题考查对作者在本文中持有的观点的理解。作者在文章一开头就指出：Thetraditionalbeliefthatawoman'splaceisinthehomeandthatawomanoughtnottogoouttoworkcanhardlybereasonablymaintainedinpresentconditions.意思是：“妇女的位置是在家庭里以及妇女不应当外出工作这一传统观念，在今天的环境中已经没有理由再保持下去了。”在最后一段中，又说：Itisextremelywastefultogiveyearsoftrainingatpublicexpenseonlytohavethequalifiedteacherornursemarryafterayearortwoandbelostforevertoherprofession.Thetraining,itistrue,willhelpherinherdutiesasamother,butifshecontinuedtowork,herservicewouldbemorewidelyuseful.意为：“以公费获取多年的培训之后，那些取得了资格的教师或护士一、两年后就结婚并永远地离开了她们的职业，这真是极大的浪费。”而另一方面，Manyfactoriesandshops,too,arelargelystaffedbywomen,manyofthemmarried.Whileherethequestionoftrainingisnotsoimportant,industryandtradewouldbeseriouslyshortofstaffifmarriedwomendidnotwork.意思是“许多工厂和商店也雇用大量妇女为其工作，虽然在这些地方，所受的培训不是那么重要，但是如果已婚妇女都不工作，那么工业和商业的劳动人员就会大大短缺。”也就是说，作者认为，不论是否受过专业教育，已婚妇女还是应该继续工作。B选项allmarriedwomenshouldhavesomeoccupationoutsidethehome“所有已婚妇女都应该出门参加工作”，反映了作者所持的观点。A选项therightplaceforallwomen,marriedorotherwise,isthehome,notelsewhere.“所有已婚或未婚妇女的位置都应该在家庭里，而不是在其他任何地方。”这是传统观念，而不是作者的观点。C选项amarriedwomanshouldgivefirstprioritytoherdutiesasamother“已婚妇女应该优先履行母亲的职责”，这点虽然看起来没有错，但不是作者在本文里想要阐述的观点。D选项itisdesirableforuneducatedmarriedwomantostayathomeandtakecareofthefamily的意思是：“未受过足够教育的已婚妇女应该待在家里照顾家人。”从最后一段可以看出，这也不符合作者的观点。

13.C解析：第二段第一句。带顶棚的运动场是一种改革。选项C是正确的。

14.B解析：参见文章第一句。

15.C从短文第一段第一句Advertisement…tobuyorsellgoodsorservices．可知广告的作用是推动销售。

16.D解析：第一段。选项A、B、C都与文中所说相反。重量大则密度大，同样大小但未必同样的重量，不同的重量则密度不同。选项D是正确的。

17.B51．答案为B

此考题为细节题。根据文章最后一句whenasocialworkercalledfivemonthsafterMrs．Townsend'sdeath，就可以旨定B正确，而其他选项在文中均未提及。

18.C解析：文章最后五行，指明许多雨伞被送到这位失主门前，虽然有些雨伞上附有留言，但都没有、也不会有任何姓名。

19.B解析：由第三段最后一句“Withoutpatience,thesamescenariocanbecomeamajoremergencycompletewithyelling,frustration,hurtfeelings,andhighbloodpressure.”可知B为正确答案。

20.C

21.B解析：最后一段指出这座城市的地下有座被遗弃的煤矿，煤矿坑道的倒塌带动了道路的下沉，也不知道什么时候整座城市都会倒塌。B项是正确的。

22.D本文讲的是许多日本火车站启用蓝色的灯以减少卧轨自杀人数。第一段提到，蓝色可以创造平静的氛围，想自杀的人会在这种气氛中平静下来，所以采用蓝色。

23.D解析：根据本文大意可知，BillGates的孩子肯定会得到不同的礼遇是因为BillGates有足够多的钱来支持学校。

24.A解析：第一段和第三段。海水水位升高，将威胁到小岛国家，也将淹没地球上一些低洼的人口密集的区域。说人口密集肯定是城市了。第三段举例说，海水水位若升高7米，从孟加拉国的首都达卡到中国的上海，这样的海平面的城市都将被淹没。选项D只是一个例子。

25.C

26.C解析：第二自然段后半部分写到：“Amotherlessfamilymayalsobefatherless，butstillafamilywithoneadult．Thisisbecomingmorecommoninthebigcitieswhereagrandmotherwillraiseherdaughter'schildrenwhilethedaughtergoeselsewheretowork．”由此可见，本题选C。

27.D本题为细节题。根据文章第1段最后一句Hesaiditwasa1950or1951Chevrolet．和第2段第1句中的Ordinarily，searchingthroughthefilesforownersofelderlyChevieswouldhavebeenanimpossiblydifficulttaskbecausethereweretwoandahalfmillionsuchcars．我们不难看出Chevrolets与Chevies所指的是同一个东西，故应选D。

28.C解析：文章第二段第一句话表明Mrs.Edwards希望得到免费商品，成为幸运顾客。

29.C

30.A48．答案为A。根据第四段描述内容作出该项选择。

31.A

32.Ctakeone’Sfirststep指“迈出第一步”。

33.A

34.D

35.B解析：violate冒犯，侵扰；cause引起；kill杀害；damage毁坏。

36.B解析：电视节目应用show。选项B是正确的。

37.C

38.B解析：empty意为“空的(容器)”，free意为“空余的(房间等)”；blank意为“空白的(表格)”；bare意为“秃的，光着的”。校长说：“我们还有一个空位。”

39.A

40.D

41.D根据上下文，可以看出这里讲的是对假树的清洁工作：清洗和除尘。sweepthemoff“把树扫掉”，washthemoff“把树洗掉”，tidy“整理”都不符合文章含义。D项是正确的。

42.C解析：curselikedevils意为“像魔鬼一样诅咒”。

43.B此题考查短语搭配。“将……命名为……”应该是“name…as…”，故选B。

44.B解析：可以说，手机在关键时刻能救人生命。这是说手机的好处。must意为“必须”；can意为“能够”，need意为“需要，必须”；haveto意为“不得不”。

45.C解析：见上一条。

46.A解析：这个镇上著名的岩石蕴藏着令人难以置信的化石层。

47.C解析：饱餐之后立刻去购物，正与前半句的onafullstomach相吻合，所以此处答案应为immediately。

48.A

49.C

50.D根据前面句子中的networks“网络”可知应选择nations，指“国家”。其他选项只是国家的部分地区。

51.B

52.A20．答案为A

他很少受到如此热烈的欢迎。seldom置于句首时主谓需倒装。该句表示一直持续的动作，因此用完成式。

53.A16．答案为A

他胳膊下正夹着一个大包裹。介词under及其名词词组置于句首时主谓需倒装。只有A选项形式正确。

54.D18．答案为D

writingaletter为现在介词短语，在本句中作为伴随状语。

55.A本题考查祈使句型：

【应试指导】句意：Mary，到这里来，其余的人待在原处。根据句子的结构可判断出这是个祈使句。所以要用动词原形开头。Mary在句中不是

主语，而是“呼语”。

56.Aor意为“否则”。

57.A参考译文：希望工程在中国好像开展得不错。此题根据题意应该用现在进行时，排除C。“进展”是“getalong”，且应该用主动语态，故选A。D"getonwith"的意思是“继续做”。

58.C解析：latest表“最新的”。

59.A本题考查多个形容词修饰一个名词的顺序安排。多个形容词修饰名词时，其顺序为：限定词——数词——描绘词——(大小，长短，形状，新旧，颜色)——出处——材料性质——类别——名词。

60.Dwhile作“尽管”解。2022年河南省驻马店市成考专升本英语学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
