参考答案

1.C解析：参见第三句：《美国英语辞典》于1828年出版二卷，已被公认为美国用法的权威。

2.C解析：第二段。根据上下文，不同的水果，其树的摇数也不同，是特定的。所以选项C是正确的。

3.B解析：本题属主旨题。通读全文，本文主要讲：市场是什么，市场的一些具体表现和方式。A只是市场的一种行为表现；C叙述错误，除了producing，还有buying；D叙述错误，文章谈了市场与消费者两方面。

4.C解析：细节题。将第三、四两段中提到的几个数字相加可知C项正确。

5.B解析：第2段第1句讲到amultitudeoffactors．．．influence...,故选B。

6.D42．答案为D

因为全文讲述的都是一些有关“钥匙儿童”的情况，再根据文章第2段最后一句Slowly，shelearnedtheywerehousekeys可知孩子们脖子上戴的是串钥匙，推知此题答案为D。

7.A解析：根据每段大意：第一段为“社会习俗与行为方式因时而异”；第二段为“社会习俗与行为方式因地而异”；第三段为、“英美在匀俗与行为方式上的异同点”；最后一段介绍“社会习俗与行为方式方面应注意的一个重要原则”。每段都围绕“社会习俗与行为方式”这一主题，故选A。

8.C解析：本题为客观细节题。在Papousek的实验中，一个婴儿喝足了牛奶后不愿再喝牛奶但却愿意继续学习动作，因为这个动作给它带来快乐。

9.D解析：第一段。说明大赦国际这个组织完完全全是一个民间的国际志愿者组织。是靠捐赠的钱(subscription，donation)来维持运作，与任何政治、宗教、政府、经济等团体或组织无关。

10.B

11.C参考文章第二句。

12.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。

13.C见原文第一段。RulonGardner，摔跤运动员，在奥林匹克运动会上获得冠军。

14.D文章第二段第三行Thisreputationgrew…atcollegeconcerts说明表演增加了他的名声。

15.B

16.C

17.D

18.D41．答案为D

此考题为细节题。文章第2段告诉我们：...(Mrs．Robson)wassadatthethoughtof，leavingthehouse．

asitwasfullofsomanymemories．Butatthesame

time

shewaslookingforward

tospendingherlastyearsnearthesea，因此我们应选择D。

19.D解析：第三段中的“Certainmenwereverycleveratmeasuringthetimeofdayaccordingtothebeatingoftheirownhearts.”和第四段中的“Theylearnedtousetheshadowscastbythesun.Theymarkedthehoursoncandles,usedsandinhour-glasses,andinventedwater-clocks.”可判断出人们曾经通过数自己的心跳、观察太阳投下的阴影、使用蜡烛、沙漏以及发明水钟来计算时间，但没有讲使奴隶整日整夜地忙碌，所以选项D是错误的。

20.C解析：根据表中GSOH出现的两个出处：withaGSOH和IhaveaGSOH可以判断GSOH应该是指人个性的缩略语。

21.D46．答案为D

此考题为细节题。根据文章第3段首句Theofficer...allowedthemtoflytheplaneforafewsecondsiftheywerenottoofrightenedtotry...，即可断定D正确。

22.C

23.C解析：参见第二段。

24.B解析：本题属理解判断题。文章的最后一句已明确指出答案。

25.D

26.B解析：本题属判断正误题。文章第三段第一句已明确点明：在每年的12月10日，举行诺贝尔颁奖典礼，就是为了纪念他的去世。

27.D

28.A根据文章第二段第二句，作者举例而言：“earlytextile—millentrepreneurs，…，mademuchoftheassumptionthatwomenwerebynatureskill—fulatdetailedtasksandpatientincarryingoutrepetitivechores；themillownersthusimportedintothenewindustrialorderhoarystereotypes”。由此可知A项为正确的，而B项和D项文章未谈及，至于C项，根据文章第三段第二句，即使有经济利益，雇主也不愿改变它。

29.D解析：社会学家更关心古董的实用价值，选D。

30.D

31.A23．答案为A。any指前一句中的them，完整的说法是ifanyofthem...。根据此意，选项C和D应排除；又由于missing使此句成为意义上的否定，不能选B。

32.C

33.C

34.C解析：这一句的意思是“那位前台服务员请那位女游客留下未用过的胶卷，并许诺她将负责拍摄迪斯尼在PolynesianLuau的其余的表演节目”。A选项printed的意思是“洗印出来的”，B选项shot意思是“拍摄出来的”，C选项unused的意思是“未使用过的”，D选项recorded的意思是“记录下来的”。比较几个词义，只有C选项最符合上下文的意思。

35.C解析：
