参考答案

1.B解析：本题属主旨题。文章第一句已提示本文的主旨所在：新科技的发展已经促进了农业的巨大进步。

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

3.B解析：文章第三段第二行“Thebuyingofthehugenorthernlandmassseemedatfirstsomethingfoolishlydone.”以及第六行的内容，表明正确答案为B项。

4.C解析：根据句子“Basically,AandBcannotbemixed．AandBcannotreceiveAB”可以推论出，A型可以接受A型和O型的血。

5.D本题属对全文主题归纳理解题。其关键词是passageingeneral。这是有关全文主题的问题，而不是枝节问题。因此不要只注意细节信息，结果顾此失彼。各项内容虽然在文章中都有提及，但却不是主流，不能概括全文。通篇是讲Halley是如何作出hisdiscovery的，故D项最符合全文主题，是正确答案。

6.D解析：参见第一段最后一句。

7.C第三段中提到作者以佛罗里达州一条搁浅的鲸鱼为例，证明鲸鱼一旦搁浅就注定死亡。C项是正确的。

8.A文中第一段第一句中提到了建筑物的高度是因地震受到限制，因此A项的表述不合适，高大的建筑物并不是东京要向地下发展的原因。

9.B解析：本题属细节题。文章第一段倒数第三句已明确点明。

10.D解析：由第一段最后一句和第二段可知。

11.A根据第一段的段首句可知应选A项。

17.A文中的deeper指“人睡得深，睡得沉”，可以用heavier代替。

18.C解析：第一段中写到从南到北、从东到西大约是3百多英里，因此本题中从英格兰中部到南海岸应该是300英里的一半：150英里。

19.D

20.B解析：从第三段可知，远程教育的好处是方便。时间、地点可自由选择。

21.A解析：文章最后一段提到all-purposeculturalviewthatshemadeherlastingfame.故正确答案直为A。
