参考答案

1.C解析：本题属推理分析题。文章第四句已提示：语言学习者观察当地人表达自我的方式和表情方式是不同于他们自己的。文章倒数第二句已提示：这种观察结果为学习者自己学英语打下了一个良好的基础。

2.D最后一段说很多文艺界人士站出来声明对艾滋病病毒携带者的歧视是不能接受的。

3.D

4.D解析：文章从消费市场、影视、学校、健康护理等方面讲老龄化给美国社会方方面面带来的影响，与D项符合。

5.D解析：参见：…becameverypopularbothintheUnitedStatesandinEurope．

6.A解析：本题为是非判断题。文章从一开始就阐明作者对青少年的叛逆心理的赞许。然而，青少年做得还不够，他们易受流行浪潮的影响，易受家长的影响。由此，我们可知B、C、D三个选项是符合文章内容的。只有A项错误。

7.B参考文章最后一段。

8.A解析：见原文第二段。如果因某种原因缺课，应问老师或同学作业是什么。不能因为缺课而不做作业。

9.C最后的等级就是交了税等着政府做事，我们只享受就是了。C项是正确的。由“…spendingmoreontaxestopayforgovernmentactionagainst…”可知，付更多的税给政府，政府再有所行动。不赋税，政府就不行动，第五个等级的满足就不会实现。

10.D解析：本题属主旨判断题。通读全文之后，便知作者的目的是：生物死后的保护问题，并非A生命起源，B生命形式和C生命的发现。

11.A解析：参见最后一段的前三行：我们得知这个商人做广告从来都是成功的，因此他很自信，相信这一次他也一定能成功。

12.B解析：参见句子：Duringthepasttenyears，scientiststellusthatthetemperatureoftheworldhasdroppedalittle．

13.A解析：承认生活不公平，因而要努力创造美好生活。这是全文的主题，也是作者对于生活的积极态度。

14.B解析：本段第一句为主题句，理解“goingalongwaytoward”是解题的关键。

15.D

16.B解析：句子“Uponreachinganoverbangingbranch，MengKimquicklyhauledhimselfup．”说明MengKim是拖着身子上去的，文章前面已说明Kim是不能走路的。第三段，Kim见到老虎后并未告诉JeeHock．

17.A见文章第二自然段第一句。

18.C这篇文章主要讲了Williams写这本书的目的是让人们寻宝。C项是正确的。其他三项都只是文章中整个事件的一部分，不是主题。

19.D解析：由第一段可知：从未到过或只到过英格兰部分地区的人误以为英国是个寒冷潮湿的国家，实际上在英格兰北部和中部诸郡从六月到九月确是如此，而英格兰南部的气候却非常舒适。

20.C

21.C

22.B解析：细节辨认题。根据文章第二段"AworldplanhasbeenmadebyacommitteeofUNESCOexpertsinParisaspartoftheUnitedNationsDevelopmentDecade"可以得知该计划是联合国十年发展规划的一部分。

23.B

24.D解析：作者在第二段指出，20世纪60年代的叛逆者认为，人们对幸福的理解过于狭隘。对他们来说，发式和穿着、麻醉品和摇滚乐虽不值得去冒死追求，但却是另外一种生活的象征，一种人的本质生活的象征。因此D为正确答案。

25.C文章最后一句写到“MisterBliss”是第一个死于车祸的，证明其后还有人因交通事故而死亡。

26.D

27.B解析：本题属词汇测试题。全文大意主要是：澳大利亚的“bushfire”是怎样产生的，故hell地狱，furnace火炉，fireball火球，均不切题。只有inferno(火源之地)符合。

28.A解析：根据文章第三段可以选出正确答案。

29.B解析：通读全文可知，医生本人就是事故的受害者。

30.A此题是对细节信息进行推理的考查。其中关键词是．．end．．．find。前者说明与故事结尾有关，后者表示考生须通过上下文找出隐含的信息。最后一段的感叹句说明那butcher被聪明的dog给蒙骗了。所以A项是正确答案。其他各项均不符合故事情节或逻辑推理。

31.C解析：readthrough通读，读遍。很少有人都读完。

32.D此题为理解与辨别题。读懂全句后可知，空白处缺少一个相当于中文“问题”的词。有可能错选questions。question和problem的中文意思均为“问题”，前者为需要对方回答的问题，如：MyquestioniswhatlanguageisspokeninCongo．而后者则指需要解决的问题，如：Itwillbeabigproblemifyouarealwayssatisfiedwithwhatyouhavegot．

33.C解析：通过后面andfromaman,ifyouareawoman可以确定C选项man。

34.D根据上下文，通篇讲的是电视领域的变化是相当大的。选项A是正确的。

35.B

36.B解析：本题为词义辨析题。这里动词应该用被动语态作定语修饰“letters”。aletterisaddressedtosb.意为“写给某某的一封信”。

37.D27．答案为D

本题为词汇题，要求正确选择词义。A爆发，B发展，C赢，D结束。1945年第二次世界大战结束。

38.B解析：本题是介词选择题。过去
