参考答案

1.B

2.D解析：本题为细节辨认题。文章第一段第一句讲到“SevenpercentofBritishschoolchildrengotoprivateschoolscalledindependentschools…”即：英国7%的中小学孩子到私立学校上学，这些学校又叫独立学校。

3.D第二段。土拨鼠有非常厚的毛皮以御寒。选项D是正确的。选项A在第三段，有些动物是靠多吃增加脂肪以御寒。选项B在倒数第二段，小耳朵比大耳朵少释放热量。选项C在最后一段，讲的不是冬天如何御寒的问题。

4.A

5.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。

6.C作者在文章的一开始就生动地捕述了这对夫妇所处的险情。C项是正确的。

7.B解析：第2段第1句讲到amultitudeoffactors．．．influence...,故选B。

8.C解析：通读全文可知文章在描述服装店热卖的情景，因此正确答案为C。

9.D

10.A解析：参见第三段第一句。

11.B解析：第二段。Therefore因此。由于前面提到的原因，才有了后面的行为或决定。这个词的前面通常是原因，该词后则通常是结果。选项B是正确的。

12.D文中A、B、C项，均有提到，唯有D项“playingmusicthatsoundslikemusicoffamousbands”未提到。

13.D解析：参见倒数第三段。

14.D解析：通读全文可知，作者想表达这样一个观点：人的真正幸福也许是难以达到的。

15.D文章第二段引用歌德一首诗里主人公Faust的例子，其目的在文章第三段开头得到了说明，即现在学习知识的形势与过去相比大不一样，固选D项。

16.B48．答案为B

B选项是第三段其中的一句原文。因此B为最佳答案。

17.D此题为细节信息归纳推理题。其中关键词是Mr．Green．．．worriedbecause。第

1段第2句交代了Mr．Greenhad

￡100．00．．并且他得知搭车者曾因抢劫入狱(见第1段倒数第2句)。因此不难推断出D为正确答案。

18.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”。

19.A解析：最后一段。这个结尾既不是建议，也不是笑话，更不是警告，仅是思考。选项A是正确的。

20.D解析：本文客观地表达了作者对体育运动的看法。

21.D

22.C解析：本题属细节题。文章第三句中的"weoftenwritetoeachother"已提示答案。

23.D解析：这个问题的答案建立在对最后一段Richard说的话的理解上。“Thejobyoulovemaynotgohandinhandwithamillion—dollarincome.”以及“Thishasalwaysbeenaboutanenjoyablelifeforourselves,notaboutmakingalotofmoney.”gohandinhandwith的意思是“与……共同存在”。由此可见，他们开书店的目的是D选项所描述的todowhattheyliketodo，即“做他们想做的事情”。其他选项皆与此意不符。

24.B解析：参见第二段：这架单人小型飞车是由120马力的发动机带动的，并有双螺旋桨。

25.C解析：参见句子：ThescientistssaythatmanydifferentanimalsmaybetrainedtodOanumberofsimplejobsiftheyknowtheywillgetarewardfordoingthem．

26.A解析：参见句子：Acandidate'sprofessionalqualificationsincludehiseducation，experienceandskills．

27.D解析：本题属理解分析题。从文章中Peter连续问到"theGoldenGate"便知答案。

28.A解析：第一段，苏格兰是欣赏野外风景的好地方，比明信片上的还要好。那里的城镇无论吃住、观赏、游玩，从历史、文化、休闲等都是值得一去的。选项B与第二段的内容相反；选项C与文中不符；选项D只提及文中的一项。

29.A

30.D

31.D解析：本题属介词题。被动语态的动作执行者前应该用by。

32.B解析：Whowas表明所修饰的人是单数。选项B是正确的。
