参考答案

1.B解析：第2段最后一句讲读的学的越多，我们掌握的意义词汇也越多，故选B。

2.D本文讲的是许多日本火车站启用蓝色的灯以减少卧轨自杀人数。第一段提到，蓝色可以创造平静的氛围，想自杀的人会在这种气氛中平静下来，所以采用蓝色。

3.C南文章可知“一些银行没有开门”，所以这就是为什么许多人跑到开门的银行去取钱。

4.C解析：本题考查的是对细节的把握能力。该题可以从文章第一行Britain'sleadingstate-runEnglishlanguagecenter得出答案。leading的意思足“主要的”，state-run的意思是“国营”。

5.B解析：见原文第二段。履历就像是一种书面的销售展示。

6.D

7.B解析：本文是一篇说明文，第一段即道出全文的主旨是要说明一种新型客机在投入使用之前所做的许多测试中的最重要的两项。第二段对其中一项测试tanktest进行了说明。该段落的第2～4句说明了为什么飞机的结构要牢固。第5～7句从物理学上说明飞机在空中产生爆炸的原因。接下来才说明tanktest测试的目的是Totestthestructureoftheplane和测试方法。第二段末尾提到通过测试，Engineerscandiscoverwhichpartoftheplanehasbroken.Thenthatpartismadestronger.可以判断B选项涵盖了上述意思。

8.C

9.C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。

10.C解析：最后一段。最后得出的数据是因温度的升高而造成海水水面每年升高0．53毫米，而不是政府的气候变化专门委员会预报的0．32毫米。从数据上看，海水温度的实际升高速度比科学家们原来预想的快。

11.B

12.A见原文最后一段。这个冠军争夺战是在RulonGardner和俄罗斯运动员之间争夺。

13.D解析：第3段第6行对“blackspot”作了解释。B项干扰最大。细读第3段提及的3种违法情节可知，对他人生命及财产造成损害却开溜的违法。

14.D由第一段段意可知，Nigel是因在学校学习好被选到计算机实验室帮助老师而得到一些酬劳。A、B、C三项在本文中都没提到，故排除，答案选D项。

15.C本题是对文章细节的考查。文中说Scientistsdon'tknowwhythishappens，与C选项意思一致。故是正确的。

16.B解析：参见第一段。

17.B解析：参见最后一段的第二句。

18.B解析：从第二段可知，有一所学校决定禁酒，原因是那所学校已经以酒吧多而闻名，被称作是酒吧学校。

19.B解析：见原文第三段。这些网址是靠广告赚钱。第一段提及大的网站受到攻击。

20.B

21.C解析：题干的关键是mostunlikely。作者写作本文的目的是要论述发展孩子的社会能力，即让孩子学会与外部世界共处的重要性。如果作者是老师，他或她最可能做的就是B和D，最不可能做的就是C“当众宣布孩子取得的差成绩”，因为第二段提到对大多数孩子来说，他们目标的确定依据外部世界并非依据自身，失败会使他们丧失信心。选项A的studentswhohavementalproblems是本文没有提到的，作者是否会这么做无从得知。

22.A解析：由句子“Theyarepopularbecause...”及“Atelevisionreporter,ShawTaylor,talksaboutcrimesintheLondonarea．”可知，ShawTaylor是一位“populartelevisionreporter”。

23.C推理判断题。

【应试指导】由文章第一段最后一句话“当他75

岁时，他给村子里的学校1200英镑来为学生操场买地和设备。”可知，约翰逊非常喜欢孩子。

24.B解析：第三段。整日被高声叫嚷的声音包围，好像已经习以为常了。但还不能说不关心。选项B是正确的。

25.A

26.A由文章第一段可知，吉姆在为自己的懒惰找借口。

27.D

28.D48．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。

29.D解析：第一段。选项A、B、C都与文中所说相反。重量大则密度大，同样大小但未必同样的重量，不同的重量则密度不同。选项D是正确的。

30.D解析：这里指的是鸽子主人的一些特性，所以选D。

31.B此段讲述不同背景成员的婚姻关系，用However引出。

32.D解析：如果有机会，选择能够集中精力的座位就座。

33.C前面已经说授予的是和平奖，因此这里肯定指的是表彰他们在北爱尔兰的冲突问题上采用了和平的解决方式。

34.D该空后面的stillmoredifficult就是提示。

35.D解析：意为“沿着小道走”。

36.C解析：购物的人要精心写购物单，为的是要省钱。这也是这篇文章要表明的主要意思，用save填空，在语义上和逻辑上均成立。

37.B

38.A文章的第一句话就说你不到真正老的时候是不会感觉到老的。作者紧接着说，自己已经50岁了。刚过半百，可以猜到作者一定还未感觉到老。选项B是正确的。

39.B解析：从后面的叙述可以肯定是一个事件(incident)。

40.D解析：刘翔认为瑞士洛桑是他的幸运之地。

41.A解析：也就是在新总统正式任职的前两个星期在国会计票。

42.B24．答案为B

【应试指导】最小的孩子Teddy想坐火车周游世界，而哥哥姐姐向他解释说那是不可能的。explain解释。

45.A

46.A

47.C介词后面必须跟名词性短语。所以，of后只能跟doing。beinglate也是一个常用短语。有了手机反倒不怕迟到了。

48.D此句意为：那也不是说父母应忽略孩子的作业。

49.A解析：这个学校的主管告诉双方的军官，如果军队住进学校，会发生什么。

50.C许多人都认为鸡蛋是健康食品。

51.B10．答案为B。虽然我承认他不完美，但我真的很喜欢这个人。while表示“虽然”，有转折意味；since“既然”；before“在……之前”；unless“除非”。根据句意，只有选B。

52.Ctakenoticeof是固定搭配，意思是“注意”。remark是“说话，评论”；attention是“注意”，常用payattentionto；observation是“观察”。

53.A本题考查日常交际用语。

【应试指导】句意：——非常抱歉，我把你的桌布脏了。——没关系。Nevermind“没关系”。

是答对方道歉的用语；Sorry“对不起”，是向对方道歉的用语；Don’tmentionit“不要再提它了”，是回答对方感谢的用语；That’sallright“没关系，不客气”，是回答对方感谢的用语。

54.D18．答案为D

“酒店住一晚上收费多少钱?”“100美元”。take花(时间)；spend“花费”，后接花费的数额或时间；offer“出价，报价”；charge“要价”，可与for连用。

56.A解析：在“require+动名词”这一结构中，动名词有被动之意。

57.D解析：本题考查动词短语的辨别。turninto使变成，turnup发现、找到，turnin归还，turnout生产，故选D。

58.B解析：throwaway“扔掉”；putaway“收拾好”；giveaway“泄密”；carryaway“带走”。

59.B结合句意可知B项是正确答案。bestrict，with意为“对……要求严格”；beinterestedin意为“对……感兴趣”:besatisfiedwith意为“对……满意”:bebusydoing意为“忙于做……”。

60.C解析：本题测试动词词义。convince意为“使相信”；stress意为“强调”'．seetoit意为“确保”；ensure意为“担保”。本句大意为；为了培养我们的动手能力，母亲确保我们能分担家务。广东省广州市成考专升本英语学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
