参考答案

1.A

2.A解析：本题为细节推理题。从第四段我们可知，老师使用不当的刺激无助于学生的创造性思维的发展，因此，许多高校开始提高判分标准，恢复不及格制度。

3.C解析：参见第二段：科学家发现，barredowl到来之后，作了记号的猫头鹰的数量在减少。

4.B综合全文，本文的最佳题目为“阿基米德定理”，即放入水中的物体排开水的重力等于它所受到的浮力。

5.C解析：第三个笔友。

6.D解析：词语释义题。由第二段“Andyouwillbeabletomakepaymentsbychequeorstandingorder.Forexample，youcanaskustopayyourrentdirecttoyourlandlady．A1lyouneedtodoistomakeoutastandingorder，andthatmeanswemakesureyourrentispaidontime，withoutyouhavingtoworryaboutit．Youwillreceiveregularstatementstoletyouknowjusthowyoustand"可以得出答案为C。

7.A解析：文章简述了人类的内部感官。选项B是其中的一部分。选项c是作者用来作为引子，引起读者的兴趣，并与之比较，从而说明内部感官究竟是什么。选项A是正确的。

8.B全文讲鲸鱼搁浅的事。B项是正确的。其他选项都很片面，文章中虽然提到，但不是主题。

9.B本题为推理题。文章告诉我们，警方最初只发现一男一女在车内被谋杀，唯一的线索只是一个目击者，证明曾见过一辆1950或1951型号的雪佛莱汽车从死者车旁经过。但如果没有计算机的帮助，要从250万辆这种型号的车辆中找出凶手的车是不可能的。所以，计算机的帮助成了抓获凶手的关键，证人仅提供了线索，但并未亲自去抓捕罪犯，所以B正确，而C错误。A和

D与文中内容相矛盾。

10.D33．答案为D

从句中Russiancities，suchas...可知这两个词是为城市举例。

11.D本题为客观细节题。从文中第一段最后两句“Thepriceremainedhighuntilanewprocesswasdiscoveredforrefiningthemetalwiththeaidofelectricityapproximatelythreequartersofacenturylater．Thenewmethodwassomuchcheaper．．．”中可以得知选项D是正确答案。

12.A

13.B第三段整段都在描述这对夫妇的危险境地，他们采取的冒险的自救方式等等，这些都充满了危险。B项是正确的。unexpected“出人意料的”；dangerous“危险的”；unusual“不平常的”；ridiculous“愚蠢的”。

14.A解析：最后一段“becauseoffearsthattheyfeedatypicalracialimage”及此后段意点明了题意。

15.D解析：参见：…becameverypopularbothintheUnitedStatesandinEurope．

16.D解析：根据文章第一段第二句…thatstudentsdolearninunfavorableconditions．．．studentsoftensucceedusingmethods．．．和第一段最后一句…thatthemotivationofthestudentisperhapsthesinglemostimportantthing．．，可排除motivation，studytechniques和learningatmosphere。

17.C解析：参见倒
