参考答案

1.B解析：本题问发掘出来的庞贝古城为什么和它AD79年时样子几乎一样。答案主要依据第三段：Whentheeruptionendedtwodayslater，Pompeiiwasburiedunder20feetofstonesandashes．Almostallofitspeopleweredead．Forcenturies，Pompeiilayburiedunderstoneandash．Then，intheyear1861，anItalianscientistnamedGinceppebegantouncoverPompeii．庞贝古城在厚厚的岩浆和火山灰中静静地躺了近1800年，直至1861年才在意大利科学家Gineeppe的带领下对其开始进行大规模发掘。由此可得出答案。remainuntouched意思是“一直没有人动过它”。

2.A解析：第一段。后面进一步解释他们急需什么样的人。选项A是正确的。

3.C解析：见原文第四段。作者找到了车，带他去城里寻求帮助。

4.B解析：见原文第二段。工作技术是指你能胜任某种工作的一种能力。

5.A解析：由后三段可知，纳迪亚的数学非常好，她“handledeveryquestiontheteachergaveher”。

6.D39．全文介绍了中学生开的特制咖啡店。选项D是正确的。

7.A解析：通过上下文可知。

8.D解析：本题问为什么每年为数众多的人来到庞贝古城。从第一段的TheyseethesightsthatPompeiiisfamousfor—itsstadiumandtheatres，itsshopsandrestaurants．Thetouristsdonot，however，seePompeii'speople.TheydonotseethembecausePompeiihasnopeople．NoonehaslivedinPompeiiforalmost2000years．可以得知人们来庞贝古城参观体育场、剧院、商店和餐馆。但是庞贝古城大约2000年来都没有人居住，所以人们来看的是古建筑，而不是来看戏或购物等。A、B、C三个选项均可排除。第四段中提到保留下来的街道和喷泉，剧院和商店。接下来又说Perhapsthemostimportantofall，therewereeverydayobjects，whichtellsusagreatdealaboutthepeoplewholivedinPompeii．这些日常生活用品包括酒具、面包烤盘、眼部化妆品等。人们从中可以了解当时庞贝城的居民的生活情况。

9.D按照第二段的说法。野狗是群居动物。一只母狗会一次生16只小狗，一群当中如有几只母狗同时生小狗的话，那就会很多。但按它们的习性，一群狗中只有一只母狗给小狗喂奶。可以想象，一只母狗是喂不过来的。

10.D解析：全文讲四种不同类型的家庭：两代人的家庭，三代人的家庭，单亲家庭，以及再婚家庭。

11.A解析：细节题。文章第二段最后一句中的“savefuel”表示“节省燃料”，A选项意思与之相近

12.B根据常识判断，室内空气不新鲜是由于不流通所致。

13.C两封信来自学校不同层面的人，一个是学生，一个是校长。并就学习成绩的作用问题发表看法。因此只能是发表在报纸上的文章。

14.C

15.C解析：细节辨认题。根据第一段第一句"Manystudentstryingtoincreasetheireffectivereadingspeedbecomediscouragedwhentheyfindthatiftheytrytoracethroughapassagefaster,theyfailtotakeinwhattheyhaveread."和第二段最后一句"Ifthereare,onaverage,morethanfiveorsixwordsoneachpagethatarecompletelynewtoyou,thenthebookisnotsuitableforreading-speedimprovement"可得出答案为C。

16.B参见第一段句子：“However,theseearlyimmigrantsfromEuropedidn'twanttosharethelandwiththenatives．TheykilledoffmanyOftheIndians，seizedtheirlandorpushedthemofftolandsfartheraway．”

17.C

18.C

19.D解析：第1段开头讲教育若只选出有天赋的人就会简单许多，所以反过来理解，教育复杂是因为要兼顾天才和普通人，选D。

20.B解析：本题的题干是问“银行发生挤兑的主要原因”，可以在文中第十一行找到答案，就是许多人都认为银行拿不出钱来给每个人。

21.C解析：第八段说，马戏团的杂技演员在表演时没有安全网，一旦受伤便会有出血的可能。因此与艾滋病病毒携带者共同演出是危险的。

22.A解析：在第六段，Cusick说，马戏团在雇用他时就已经知道他是艾滋病病毒携带者，因此在他花费长时间的准备之后，又没有让他登台演出就解雇他是不公平的。

23.A36．答案为A

从第一段thebluepagescontainnumbersofcityservices，governmentagencies可知蓝页中可查到政府机构，因此选A。

24.B解析：见第一段第二句，从中可知过去人们对大学教育的作用给予了充分的肯定。

25.D文章讲述了事件的戏剧性过程。

26.D31．答案为D。根据第一段第二句，theytookwiththemthetaxmoneythecitiesneededtomaintaintheneighborhood作出该项选择。

27.C解析：文章描述了由于快节奏生活的需要，人们在咖啡馆里消磨时光的现象不复存在，在美国风尚的影响下，欧洲也风行“coffeetogo”，从而改变了咖啡文化。

28.B解析：参见第四句：Webster写书的目的是表明美国英语正发展成与英国英语不同的含义、发音和拼写的语言。

29.D通读文章第一段，根据第二段后半部分，特别是最后两句，可知正确的推断应是D项。

30.C46．答案为C

从第一段Thenextday，hegotl3points可知C正确

31.A解析：虽然大家对男孩的母亲印象颇佳，男孩仍然感到很尴尬，而且不愿露面。A选项hid是hide“躲藏”的过去式，hideoneselffromeveryone是“躲起来不让人见到”的意思，B选项protectoneselffrom意思是“保护自己不受……的侵袭、危害”，C选项separateoneselffrom意思是“使自己与别人分离”，D选项escapedfrom意思是“逃离(某处)”。从上下文判断，A为正确答案。

32.B解析：下面是考试的五个步骤。

33.D解析：本句中前面提到getanestimateof，参看所给的可选词，确定该空白处与前面estimate意思相同。仔细观察空白处所处的是个名词位置。空白处前的an说明，该词应为元音开始的名词，因此选estimate。

34.C通篇讲的是电视的变化，这里讲的是如今的电视。这里肯定指的是电视屏幕的加大。选项D是正确的。

35.D网络购物时代使得人们能够(can)购物和在家看电视两不误。

36.C

37.A

38.A后面已有介词to，故不能再选介词in或with。不能说becalledtoSb；因此也不能选C。knowntosb．的意思是“为……所知道”。

39.B解析：keepdoingsth，表示“持续做某事”。

40.D

41.C仔细阅读指令。

42.D解析：D选项(Asa)rule的意思是“通常，一般而言”，符合一般的叙事习惯，为正确答案。A选项(Asa)result的意思是“其结果是”，B选项(Asa)law的意思是“作为一条法律”，均与后面句子的意思接不上，而C选项(Asa)beginning则无此搭配用法。

43.Bnot…anylonger“不再”。如：Hedoesn"tworkhereanylonger．

44.D解析：根据下文他去买钉子，可知他需要钉子，故应选D项。

45.A

46.B根据上下文的内容，可以判断此处应选experiences“体验”，即对生活的一种体验。

47.D29．答案为D

此题主语为speaker，且受定语从句的限定，unable“不能的，不会的”，符合句意。指人时，obscure“默默无闻的”；difficult“不易相处的”；impossible“无法忍受的”，不符句意。

48.C

49.D解析：根据后面的overandoveragain，应选repeat。

50.A

51.Buseful是“有用的”；feasible是“可行的”；available是“有效的、有用的”；desirable是“期望的”。

52.C19．答案为C

keep+动词ing为一习惯句型，“使……保持某一状态”。

53.A本题考查动词辨析。

【应试指导】句意：——你觉得昨晚Nick的表演怎么样?——说实话，他的演唱并不怎么吸引我。appealt0吸引；belongt0属于；refert0提到，涉及；Occurto突然想到。

54.B本题考查定语从句。

【应试指导】句意：别人给了我三本关于烹饪的书，第一本是我真正喜欢的。这是一个定语从句，which指代threebooks。从句中有thefirst，因此关系代词前要加介词0f。

55.A本题考查倍数的表示法。

【应试指导】句意：他们已经生产了是去年两倍的粮食。本题倍数表示法的常用结构为：Ais…amesas+原级+asB。又因为9rain为不可数名词，故用much修饰。

56.D

57.C

58.A解析：开着的窗，用形容词open

59.A

60.D解析：这是一种表示后悔的虚拟语气的句子。表示对已发生的事后悔用shouldhavedone。选项D是正确的。河南省平顶山市成考专升本英语学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
