参考答案

1.B解析：全篇的中心内容为如何选择适合你需要的电脑。另外文章标题往往是对全文内容的概括。本文标题正可用来回答此问题。

【应试指导】从第五段可知，Abe的父亲反对他读书，但是Sarah来到之后，坚持让Abe读书。

4.B

5.B解析：最后一段说JamesBartley自从这个事件后再也没有回到海上。可以推断他很害怕。其他三个选项文中都未涉及。选项B是正确的。

6.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。

7.C解析：第3段最后一句讲的意思与C项符合，故选C。

8.A解析：细节理解题。由第三段的最后两句可知本题选A项。

9.B根据文章内容，可知B项不正确，courttennis并不是MajorWalterWingfield发明的。

10.D文章中提到“Infastfoodrestaurantsthefoodisusuallyreadybeforethecustomerevenordersit”，其中说明了这种情况的发生率是usually．

14.C第三段最后。ArthurLindman预言，巨大的无聊存在于极度的丰富之中。而这还是20多年前的预言，并且，他的预言越来越准确。选项D是第四段中另一本书的时间。

15.B解析：文章主要讲的是到北美的移民，所以选B。

16.A49．答案为A

比较四个选项，只有A“缺乏”是最接近的词义。

17.A在第六段中，Cusick说马戏团在雇用他时就已经知道他是艾滋病病毒携带者，因此在他花费长时间的准备之后，又没有让他登台演出就解雇他是不公平的。

18.D解析：第二段。Fluid的本意是流体、液体。这一段的内容都是以水为主，所以，选项D是正确的。

19.B

20.A解析：参见原文第一段。在非洲，狮子恐怕是众所周知的捕猎能手，而野狗才是最令人不可思议的捕猎者。最后一段。狮子捕到猎物后会蜂拥而至吃掉。而野狗则先让小狗吃饱。这是两者的不同之处。
