14.A

15.C

16.onon解析：“…的决定”英语表达为“decisiononsth.”这里介词需要用on。故答案为on。

17.onon解析：dependenceon意为“依赖，依靠”，是固定短语。

18.whatwhat解析：此题考查what引导的宾语从句。要注意分析句子中的成分，此空为listento后的宾语。所以此处应填引导词“what”。

19.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”。

20.closeclose解析：显然，不好的习惯是“太靠近桌子”，故应填“近”。

21.importantimportant解析：从本句后面的一句话可以看出，Adown-to-earthperson就算是重要的人物，他们也不会把这种显赫写在脸上。所以前面应填important。故答案为important。

22.drinkingdrinking解析：由本句句意“通过将污水和化学物质倒入河流和湖泊，我们已经污染了我们的…水。”显然，此空处应为“饮用”。

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

24.diddid解析：据38题解析，由于while意为“尽管”，才有后面起强调作用的did，意为“确实”，言下之意有转折之意。

25.withoutwithout解析：此处意为年轻人更喜欢没有重大责任的简单工作。所以此处应填“without”。

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

27.B解析：有关商业方面的报道都是对Stiglitz的论点的支持信息。“…especiallywhenthebusinesspageisfullofstoriesaboutwhite—collarcrimeandthestockmarketseemsstuckinaperpetualrut…”所以本题应选B。

28.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。

29.AA解析：只有A放在此处才能与上一段意思连贯。

30.FF解析：由此空上下文可以看出，选项中只有F放在此处符合逻辑，上下文才能连贯。

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

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

33.D解析：选项A意思不准确，文中提到公立大学和私立大学的学费问题，但并没有表明家长的态度和倾向；选项B意思不对，文中对应信息是第二段；申请贷款并不是无条件的，这是选项C的错误所在。综观全文，可以看出传统意义上的奖学金还是很有吸引力的。所以本题应选D。

34.C解析：C中提到“Theschoolcatersforgirlsofaverageabilityandabovebutitisnotnarrowlyacademic．”。

35.A解析：由短文第一段最后一句“…managersandprofessionalsspendmorethanhalfoftheirtimeincommunicatingwitheachother．”可知，作者引用Straussmann的话主要是为了表明交流能力的重要性。

36.C解析：由全文的语气来看，均是在解释、阐述事情，而不是descriptive或narrative，更不是critic。

37.C解析：由C中的第二段“ThispartrepresentsthetensionsbetweenAmericaandFrance．”可知。

38.DD解析：由上一段中的“Edwina…andcalledhimontheintercorn．”可知D中的“…closertotheintercom…”与之呼应。

39.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend，andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

40.C解析：由第二段中的“Second，theyhavetoadoptacomputersystemcalled…”可知。

41.A由短文第二段中的“Ceramics，forinstance，havelongbeenlimitedbytheirbrittleness．”。

42.A由A中advantage第一句话“Hydro—electricpowerstationscanincreasetofullpowerveryquickly，unlikeotherpowerstations．”可知答案为A。

43.B基因治疗和以基因为基础的药物是我们从遗传科学中获得利益的两种方式。在未来几年内，这些基因疗法会发展成为主流医学。如果医生利用基因知识，分离干细胞，然后培育这些细胞，他们就可能为病人提供健康的移植组织。这种技术同样也有助于克隆技术的发展，以后越来越多的动植物将会被克隆，甚至人本身。排除道德法律的因素，利用基因克隆培养出来的人的各种健康器官，一些病将会被更好的治疗。

答案解析：

文章开宗明义，在第一段讲述到，如果我们掌握了基因科学，将会对人类有极大的好处。此外第三段的第一句“Yetthistin-tappedpotentialcouldbeaterrificboontomedicine”，意为“然而这种没被开发的潜能对医学有极大的好处”，作者在全文的最后一句又呼应了这一观点。故应选B。

44.C由下一段“FirstIhadtoregistermy…”可知，此处填“IwaslookingforaguitarandthisiswhatIdid．”正好与下文衔接。

45.B由B中的第一段“NewYorkCity，locatedinNewYorkState，isthelargestcityandthechiefportoftheUnitedStates．”可知答案为B。2022年河北省衡水市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
