wintheirwork.A、presentB、preliminaryC、neglectD、necessity【正确答案】A【答案解析】[express]表达；present提出；介绍；呈现。第48题【单选题】Thegovernmenthascalledforanindependent[inquiry]intotheincident.A、requirementB、examinationC、analysisD、investigation【正确答案】D【答案解析】[inquiry]调查，质询。investigation调查。参考译文：政府要求对这一事件进行独立调查。第49题【单选题】The_____isexpectedtobepassedinthenextparliament.A、legislationB、toleranceC、graduateD、instrument【正确答案】A【答案解析】instrument仪器；工具；乐器；手段；器械。第50题【单选题】AfterYangLiweisucceededincirclingtheearth,________ourastronautsdesiretodoiswalkinspace.A、whereB、whatC、thatD、how【正确答案】B【答案解析】句意：杨利伟成功环绕地球后，我们的宇航员所要做的就是太空行走。当that引导定语从句时，通常用作关系代词，而引导名词性从句时，是个不充当任何成分的连接词。宾语从句和表语从句中的that常可省略。What只能引导名词性从句，用作连接代词，作从句的具体成分，且不能省略。第51题【单选题】Thehurricanewasincredibly[devastating]andleftthousandshomeless.A、forcefulB、mightyC、destructiveD、dangerous【正确答案】C【答案解析】[devastating]毁灭性的。destructive破坏（或毁灭）性的。参考译文：飓风以其难以令人置信的破坏力使得成千上万的人无家可归。第52题【单选题】Thecountrywasaplacewheremenworkedfromdawntodark,andthelabourerlivednotinthesun,butinpovertyanddarkness.A、在农村，人们从早到晚都得干活，劳动者并不是沐浴在阳光下，而是生活在贫困和黑暗之中。B、在农村，人们从早到晚都得干活，劳动者不是沐浴在阳光下，而是贫困和黑暗。C、在这个国家，人们从早到晚都得干活，劳动者不是生活在阳光下，而是挣扎在贫穷和黑暗之中。D、在这个国家，人们从早到晚都得干活，劳动者不是沐浴在阳光下，而是贫穷和黑暗。【正确答案】A【答案解析】答案选A。本题考查的知识点为理解原意。有些很普通的词语，我们很熟悉，一见到，便首先想到他们最基本的含义或最常见的含义。在此题中，“country”并不是“国家”，而是指“农村”。第53题解答题Manyanimalstesttheirlegsandtotterforthonlyhoursaftertheyareborn,buthumansneedayearbeforetheytaketheirfirst,hesitantsteps.Issomethingfundamentallydifferentgoingoninhumanbabies?Maybenot.(1)[Anewstudyshowsthatthetimeittakesforhumansandallothermammalstostartwalkingfitscloselywiththesizeoftheirbrains.](2)Inpaststudiestodevelopanewanimalmodelforthebrainsineventsthatsupportmotordevelopment,neurophysiologistMartinGarwiczdiscoveredthattheschedulesbywhichferretsandratsacquirevariousmotorskills,suchascrawlingandwalking,arestrikinglysimilartoeachother;theprogresssimplyhappensfasterforrats.Thatmadethemwonderhowsimilarthetimingofmotordevelopmentmightbeamongmammalsingeneral.(3)Theycomparedthetimebetweenconceptionandwalkingin24speciesandlookedathowwellthisdurationcorrelatedwitharangeofvariables,includinggestationtime,adultbodymass,andadultbrainmass.Astheyreportinthisweek'sissueofPNAS,brainmassaccountsforthevastmajority(94%)ofthevarianceinwalkingtimebetweenspecies.Specieswithlargerbrains,suchashumans,tendtotakelongertolearntowalk.(4)Strikingly,amodelbasedonadultbrainmassandwalkingtimeintheother23speciesalmostperfectlypredictswhenhumansbegintowalk."We'vealwaysconsideredhumanstheexception,"Garwiczsays,"Butinfact,westartwalkingatexactlythetimethatwouldbeexpectedfromallotherwalkingmammals."Twoothervariables—gestationtimeandbrainmassatbirth—alsocorrelatenicelywithageofwalkingformostanimals,butnotforhumans.Thatmakessense,theresearcherssay:Humansspendanunusuallysmallportionoftheirdevelopment—andbuildanunusuallysmallfractionoftheirbrainmass——inthewomb.(5)Themodelisabletoaccommodatethisquirkofhumandevelopmentbecauseitusesthetimeittakesbabiestolearntowalkfromconception,notbirth.(Attheotherextreme,animalssuchashorses,whohavealonggestationandthenwalkalmostimmediatelyaftertheyareborn,alsofitthemodel.)BarbaraFinlay,aneuroscientistatCornellUniversity,saysthefindingssupporttheexistenceofakindofadevelopment"clock"formammals.Inherownwork,Finlayhasfoundthatvariousmammalshavesimilartimetablesforbraindevelopmentbeforebirth.Butshehadimaginedthatapostnatalmilestonesuchaswalkingwouldbemoreidiosyncratic."Iwassurprised,"shesays."Ithoughttheclockwouldstarttofracture."Itwillbeinteresting,shesays,toseeiftheclockwillkeeptimeforlatermilestones,suchaseventsrelatedtoreproduction.【正确答案】(1)一项新的研究显示，人类和其他所有哺乳动物开始行走的时间与各自的脑容量有着密切的关系。(2）在之前为支持运动神经发育的大脑活动而建立的一个新动物模型的研究中，神经生理学家MartinGarwicz发现，雪貂和小鼠获得不同运动技巧的时间表——例如攀爬和行走——彼此具有惊人的相似性，只不过小鼠的发育稍微快一些。(3)他们比较了24个物种的妊娠和开始行走的时间，并且观察这段时期与一系列变量间隔之间的关系，这些变量包括怀孕时间、成年后的体积及成年后的脑容量。(4)很明显，基于其他23种物种的成年脑体积及行走时间所建立起来的模型，几乎可以准确地预测人类开始行走的时间。(5)这一模型还能够适用于人类发育的突发事件，这是因为它所考虑的恰好是婴儿在妊娠期学习行走的时间，而非出生之后。第54题【单选题】Economicfactorsaside,the[imbalanced]distributionofeducationalresourcesalsoaffectsfairnessofeducation.A、unjustB、impartialC、unevenD、improper【正确答案】C【答案解析】[imbalanced]不平衡的，不均衡的。uneven不均衡的。参考译文：除经济因素外，教育资源分配不均同样影响到了教育的公平性。第55题【单选题】ThedeltaandnarrowNileValleytothesouthmakeuponly3percentofEgyptslandbutarehometo96percentofherpopulation.A、三角洲和南边狭窄的尼罗河河谷组成了埃及土地的百分之三，却有百分之九十六的人口住在这里。B、三角洲和通向南边的狭窄的尼罗河河谷组成了埃及土地的百分之三，却有百分之九十六的人口住在这里。C、三角洲和南边狭窄的尼罗河河谷只占埃及土地的百分之三，却有百分之九十六的人口住在这里。D、三角洲和南边狭窄的尼罗河河谷只占埃及土地的百分之三，但却是百分之九十六的人口的家园。【正确答案】C【答案解析】答案选C。arehometo…若译作“是…的家”则不顺，所以把名词改为动词，译作“…住在这里”。第56题【单选题】IrecognizedthatthesitessuchasAssociatedContentcanprovideafertilegroundforlearninghowtobecomeabetterwriter.Icouldseethatthiswasanopendoorforsystematicallylearningsomebasicwritingskillswithoutpayingcollegetuitionforclassesandleavingthecomfortofmyownhome.Intheeyesoftheauthor,thesiteAssociatedContent__________.A、offersyoualotofnovelstoreadB、isgoodforyourbecomingawriterC、asksyoutostudywritingregularlyD、isratherexpensivebutconvenient【正确答案】B【答案解析】答案选B。根据本段的…canprovideafertilegroundforlearninghowtobecomeabetterwriter确定B答案。其余选项与原文意思不符。A与D选项所表达内容在文中并未提及，可以被排除。C选项中regularly一词并未在文中得到体现。第57题【单选题】AndyetalthoughtheMayasknewaboutthewheel，theyneverusedit.Neitherdidtheyusemetalsotherthancopper.Whatisevermoresurprisingisthattheysuddenlyabandoned(抛弃)manyofthecitiesandbuiltnewonesinthejungle.SometimearoundAD900，Mayancivilizationcollapsed.Bytheyear1200，theirlastgreatcapital，ChichenItza，wasdeserted.OneofthemostsurprisingfindingsaboutMayaswasthat______.、A、theydevelopedaccuratesystemmeasuringtime.B、theyknewhowtobuildpyramidswithstones.C、theydesertedtheircitiesandmovedtonewones.D、theybuiltcitieswhichtheyneverlivedin.【正确答案】C【答案解析】对应点为Whatisevermoresurprisingisthattheysuddenlyabandonedmanyofthecitiesandbuiltnewonesinthejungle.是对原文语意进行了转化，最高级代替了比较级。第58题【单选题】Manythingsmakepeoplethinkartistsareweird.Buttheweirdestmaybethis:artists-onlyjobistoexploreemotions,andyettheychoosetofocusontheonesthatfeelbad.Thiswasn’talwaysso.Theearliestformsofart,likepaintingandmusic,arethosebestsuitedforexpressingjoy.Butsomewherefromthe19thcenturyonward,moreartistsbeganseeinghappinessasmeaningless,phonyor,worstofall,boring,aswewentfromWordsworth’sdaffodilstoBaudelaire’sflowersofevil.BycitingtheexamplesofpoetsWordsworthandBaudelaire,theauthorintendstoshowthat______.A、poetryisnotasexpressiveofjoyaspaintingormusicB、artgrowsoutofbothpositiveandnegativefeelingsC、poetstodayarelessskepticalofhappinessD、artistshavechangedtheirfocusofinterest【正确答案】D【答案解析】答案选D。事实细节题。根据题干信息我们定位到第2段，该段可以分成两部分：第一部分是前两句，事实并非一直这样（艺术家将焦点投向消极的情感），最早的艺术形式是最适合表达快乐的；第二部分提到了华兹华斯的《水仙花》和波德莱尔的《恶之花》为例。按照议论文的论点论据的关系特点，首先提出论点然后以论据论证这个观点的正确性。本题举例部分为第2段第3句中as引导的时间状语从句，该句主句部分以及上文第2句就是论点所在。第3句句首but一词暗示了“改变”。D是论点的概括。第59题【单选题】Theopportunitytoescapetherealitiesofeverydaylifeis,Ithink,themainattractionofabookshop.Therearenotmanyplaceswhereitispossibletodothis.Amusicshopisverymuchlikeabookshop.Youcangotosuchplacesasmuchasyouwish.Ifitisagoodshop,noassistantwillapproachyouwiththegreeting:“CanIhelpyou,sir?”Youneedn’tbuyanythingyoudon’twant.Inabookshop,anassistantshouldremaininthebackgrounduntilyouhavefinishedreading.Youmaywanttofindoutwhereaparticularsectionis.Then,andonlythen,arehisservicesnecessary.Butwhenhehasledyouthere,theassistantshouldleavepolitelyandlookasifheisnotinterestedinsellingasinglebook.Accordingtotheauthor,thebestwaytoescapetherealitiesofeverydaylifeis______.A、tochatwithassistantsinabookshopB、totakeawalkinthestreetsC、tomakesomeappointmentinabookshopD、tostayreadingbooksofvariouskindsinabookshop【正确答案】D【答案解析】答案应该在本段中找Theopportunitytoescapetherealitiesofeverydaylifeis,Ithink,themainattractionofabookshop.利用这样的机会逃避庸常的现实生活是书店的主要吸引人之处。第60题【单选题】Itisamusingthatshe________herfather’sbadtemperaswellashermother’sgoodlooks.A、inheritedB、retainedC、preservedD、maintained【正确答案】A【答案解析】本题的B、C和D选项虽然意思有些相近，但从题句意来看只有A符合题意。inherit“经遗传而得（性格、特征等）”。第61题【单选题】Hesaid________hewaslateforschoolagainand________theteacherwouldpunishhim.A、that不填B、不填不填C、wherethatD、不填that【正确答案】D【答案解析】如果两个宾语从句并列，第一句的宾语从句的引导词可以省略，但后一句的引导词that不可省略，故应选D。第62题【单选题】Ihavefinishedalargepartofthebook;therest________moredifficult.A、isB、areC、wasD、were【正确答案】A【答案解析】therest=therestpartofthebook，是不可数的，所以谓语动
