参考答案

1.C

2.A解析：由第二自然段中句子“ThisismorepossiblenowthatAmericanhomeshavebecomelarger”可知，A正确。

3.B

4.B解析：参见第二段。人类把这种鸟圈入特定的地点进行喂养得到了一定的保护。但同时，它们也似乎对人类更感兴趣。从而破坏了人类的正常生活。这就是人们用不同的手段杀死它们的原因。

5.C解析：expatriate“移居国外者，侨民”。

6.B见原文第一段。MagdalenaSmith说，学生为了争得好成绩往往减少了有意义的活动，诸如音乐、体育等。他主张不要把成绩看得太重。

7.A解析：第10行起“inthesubsistencefarm”，“thereislittleneedforexchangegood”，即不需要marketing。因为“productionisfordirectuse”，故选A。

8.C解析：参见第二段：麦克风放在房顶上是为了监听到打枪的声音。

9.D解析：第1段前两行讲到healthbehaviors，illnesses，故选D。

10.C解析：这是一篇文章不是通告。排除选项A。选项B和D可包括的范围太大。选项C是正确的。

11.D解析：文章讲的是一次事件，人被鲸鱼吞人肚中却活着出来。选项D是正确的。

12.A解析：词汇题的出题思路：(1)难词生词；(2)词很简单，但考查考生都不熟知的含义。本题属于后者。选完后要代入原文中看看是否合适。

13.AC项与文章内容相反。B项表示不得不做某事。由文章倒数第二段最后一句知A项是正确的。

14.C解析：本题为是非判断题。从全文来看，作者总的是要说城市太大使得人们脱离了自然，对生活有许多不利方面的影响。但并不是说最简单的事物都被强加于人们头上。显然，C项是作者没提到的。

15.A解析：第一段提到木材公司是靠树木赚钱的。第二段提到某个木材公司实施着超级种子的计划。第三段提到某个木材公司已经获得了这个计划的第一代树木。由此可见，树木的快速成材肯定对木材公司有利。选项A是正确的。

16.D文章第二段讲述了原始人旅行的诸多原因，其中包括escapefromhostileneighbors，由此可知，hostile是个消极意义的词，因此选D。

17.A参见文章第一句。

18.C解析：第二段首句与C意思相同。

19.D本题为细节信息推理题。题中关键词为Howlong．．last(历时多少年)。这类题只需查找文中有关时间信息，再进行计算即可。第2段第2句theKnightsofLabour．．．formedin1869，第3段末句by1890．．．theunionhaddiedout是该组织的起止时间，计算之后得出历时21年。故D项是正确的。

20.A解析：第三段中提到一旦鲸鱼搁浅，等待它的只有死亡。选项A是正确的。选项B可能是事实，但文中并未提及鲸鱼死后的处理。

21.C解析：第2段第4行theyarepreparedtoreferyoutothecorrectofficeorperson的意思是“他们随时介绍你去见相关人员。”

22.C

23.C本题属对细节信息的深层理解推断题。其关键词是made．．，discovery。Halley的discovery是基于对cometsthathadbeenobservedbyscientists(第3段)进行的计算，即(C)byusingtheworkofotherscientists才
