参考答案

1.D

2.D解析：文章第四段第三行表明Maury负责测北大西洋和太平洋的水深。

3.D

4.D解析：选项A在第二段；选项B在第四段；选项C在倒数第二段。选项D是正确的。

5.B解析：第二段。Structure意为组织，组成部分，构造是可以没有的。Necessaryparts是必需的部分，不可少的。选项B是正确的。

6.D解析：在文章首段段末出现的转折，其后往往是全文的主旨。全文是讲光污染给人们带来的危害，因此but之后drawback的意思应当是不足、问题或危害等，只有problem与题意相符。

7.C解析：问标题也为主旨大意题。标题反映文章大意，要求选项的归纳范畴应恰如其分，既不能只提文章中的一个细节，犯理解过窄的错误，也不能将文章以外的内容概括于其中，犯理解过宽的错误。这需要通读全文进行综合分析才可得出答案。先看文章各段大意：第一段作者介绍本人曾在超市做boxboy。第二段通过佩戴身份牌引发的事例说明这个工作没有人情味儿。第三段通过作者按照超市经理规定拒绝收小费而经常引起的与顾客之间的不愉快的事例，发泄了作者对上级不顾实际情况发号施令的不满。第四段表达作者由于以上原因决定辞职。因此本题的答案应为WhyIGaveupMyJob。作者在文中提及boxboy的工作是累人的以及与顾客相处等方面的问题，但都不是文章的主旨，而是用来说明辞职的原因。

8.C解析：第二段中提到，压力会影响到呼吸(respiratory)系统，会引起哮喘症(asthma)，使人呼吸加快。

9.C事实细节题。

【应试指导】由文章第三段最后一句中“PeoplebelievethatE·mail，thecomputerizedexchange，wouldcreatfriendship”可知，选项C的表述错误。

10.C解析：本题考查的是对细节的把握能力。该题可以从文章第二段中Thiswasconsideredtobetoohighanumberfortheformingoftwoclassesandtheemploymentoftwoteachers以及ThePlanningOfficewishedtotakethisopportunitytoclosetheschool，becauseitisexpensivetorun得出答案。toohighanumber的意思不是数字太高，而是“这个数字对于组建两个班并聘用两位老师而言太过奢侈”。

11.C

12.A答案为A。根据第一段倒数第二句，Theyconcernthecommonthingsoflife，andarethegoodsintradeofallthosewhospeakthelanguage作出该项选择。

13.D解析：第2段末尾讲Dr.Baum同意这样的观点：让自然环境自然存活而不受人的干扰，故选D。

14.A文章主要讲述了人们在睡眠时的REM阶段的情况。

15.B解析：根据第七段可知，大脑衰老最慢的人群是律师。

16.D51．答案为D

根据第一段everystudentinhisorhersecondyearofhighschoolisrequiredtotakeaclassindriver'seducation可知高中二年级的学生必须修驾驶课。

17.D文中第二段指出。MaryOuterbridge将lawntennis这项运动从Bermuda带到了美国纽约，并且1874年春天，她在美国打了第一场比赛。

18.C由文章最后一段可知，这个小偷认为两人共弹一架钢琴就断定这家人没钱，说明小偷愚蠢。

19.D

20.A解析：全文都是作者表述对乘长途车旅行中的广告的意见和看法。

21.C

22.C

23.B解析：这是一道细节题，由句子“Inl905，theNationalAudubonSocietywasformedbypeoplewhowerealsointerest
