PartIReadingComprehension SectionA本文以时间为顺序介绍了妇女在教学工作中所起的重要作用O26.J)。从句法的角度看,这里缺少的是能充当谓语的动词。从语义的角度看,这句话是在说明教育的作用,即它为我们提供机遇。所以,只需从prOvides和Offers两项中选择即可。从词语的搭配来看,我们通常说Offersb.sth.(或Offersth.tOsb.)和prOvidesb.withsth(或prOvidesth.fOrsb.),所以,这里应该选择prOvides。27.G)。从语法的角度看,不定式后面要求接动词原形。从语义衔接的角度看,WOmen,spartiCipatiOnasteaChersisanimpOrtantpartOfhistOry,tO.这句中出现的partiCipatiOn一词暗示了空缺的是和它相对应的动词,即partiCipate。28.C)。从语法的角度看,这里缺少的是表示程度的副词。因此,只需从COmpletely和mainly二者中选择即可。从作者叙述的态度看出,他的语气是不绝对的,带有揣测的意味(这点也可从usually这个频度副词中看出)；并且从后文sChOlsstilfOCusedmainlyOneduCatingbOys这句看,这里应选择后者。29.M)。从语法的角度看,这里缺少的是形容词。因此,只需从是形容词的选项中选择即可。而从下文的nOtastriCtsChOlmaster可推测出,这里应该选择striCt。30.O)。从语义衔接的角度看,even一词后面的内容比前面提到的内容在意思上更进一步；而前面说女老师年轻(yOungwOman)。因此,这里应选择teenagers。31.E)。从句法的角度看,这里缺少的是能充当谓语的动词。从语义的角度看,该词要和supOrt之意相关；再从下面的nOtastriCtsChOlmaster可以看出家长们的态度,即教师对待他们的孩子应是循循善诱的,而不是严厉苛刻的。因此,这里应选择nurture(培养,教养)。32.N)。从句法的角度看此处缺少一个形容词。从语境来看,文章先是说peOplewantedateaCherwhOwOuldnurtureandsupOrttheirChildren,nOtastriCtsChOlmaster.后面又提到Bythe1850snearlyalteaCherswerewOmen,espeCiallyintheelementarysChOls.由此可见,家长认为女性更适合从事教学工作,N)suited意为“合适的”,符合文意。33.A)。从和上文InCOlOnialtimes,sChOlwasmainlyfOrbOys意义上的衔接来看,这里说明的是上学的女孩子仍然很少。因此,选择attended(attendsChOl,上学)。34.K)。从语义的角度看,这里要说明的是哪种类型的教育是免费的。显然,只有publiCeduCatiOn是免费的。35.I)。从句法的角度看,这里缺少的是能与名词teaChing起同位作用的名词。选项中符合这一要求的只有prOfesiOn(职业,行业)一词。SSectionB本文围绕当今人们缺乏情感力量、普遍感到疲惫的现象来展开讨论，并通过具体事例介绍有效的方法来增加自身情感的力量OHighenergypeOplemanagetOfindsOmethingenjOyableineverysituatiOn.E)段提到,高能人士设法从周围找到有趣的事,该段最后一句还提到如果给你的一天中加入一点快乐的事,你的能量就会快速增加。题干所述与该段文意相符,故E)为答案。37.C)。由题干中的smalchanges定位到原文C)段末句:YOu，ldiscOverthesesmalthingsadtOyOuremOtiOnalenergy.题干中的smalchanges对应原文中的smalthings；increase对应原文中的ad,而无论是题干还是其对应的原文都在说emOtiOnalenergy,可见题干与该处原文意思一致,故C)为答案。38.F)。由题干中的sadmemOriesOfthepast定位到原文F)段第二、三句:EveryOne，spastis…thatkeepusfrOmmOvingfOrward.题干将F)段原文中的keepsbfrOmdOingsth.改写为finditdificulttOdOsth.,题干所述与该处原文意思一致,故F)为答案。39.A)。由题干中的lOkingfOr,emOtiOnalenergy定位到原文A)段倒数第六、七句:WhatrgyA)段倒数第六、七句指出,你所寻找的不是体力,而是情感力量。题干所述与该处原文意思相符,lOkingfOr是对原文seeking的同义转换,故A)为答案。40.G)。由题干中的decisiOn-making定位到原文G)段末句:QuitthinkingthatyOuhavetOmaketherightdecisiOn；instead,makeachOiceanddOn，tlOkback.G)段末句提到,停止你必须做出正确选择的这个想法,做出选择,不要回想。题干将dOn，tlOkback改成了withOutlOkingback,题干与此处原文意思一致,故G)为答案。41.A)。由题干中的energycrisisinAmerica定位到原文A)段首句:There，sanenergycrisisinAmerica,andithasnOthingtOdOwithfOsilfuels.A)段首句明确指出此处讨论的energycrisis与fOsilfuels(矿物燃料)并无关系,与题干表述相符。原文中的ithasnOthingtOdOwithsth.表示“与……无关”,与题干中的dOesn，trefertO意思相近,故A)为答案。42.H)。由题干中EmOtiOnalenergy,different,themOreyOugive定位到原文H)段第二、三句:EmOtiOnalenergy…ThemOreyOugive,themOreyOugetback.Thisisthedifference…H)段第二、三句指出,情感能量和体力的不同之处在于,情感能量付出的越多,得到的越多。题干将H)段原文ThemOreyOugive,themOreyOugetback.和ThisisthedifferencebetweenemOtiOnalandphysicalenergy.两句话综合到了一起,符合该处文意,故H)为答案。43.B)。由题干中的emOtiOnalenergy,genetically定位到原文B)段第七句后半部分:…emOtiOnalenergyisunlimitedandhasnOthingtOdOwithgenesOrupbringing.B)段倒数第五句中的genes对应题干中的genetically,题干中说不是geneticallydetermined,原文说的是hasnOthingtOdOwithgenes,可见题干与此处原文相符,故B)为答案。44.D)。由题干中的Ivy,pOrchildren定位到D)段最后两句:ShestartedaprOgram…tOpOrchildren.IntheprOces,Ivyfilledherlifewithmeaning.题干是对D)段最后两句话的概括,题干中的launching“发起”对应文中的started；原文中的关键词pOrchildren,filledherlifewithmeaning在题干转述时没有任何改变,故D)为答案。45.B)。由题干中的LauraHillenbrand定位到原文B)段第六句:ItwasemOtiOnalenergythathelpedhersucceed.四级41B)段中作者以LauraHillenbrand为例,说明有些人即使在艰难的境遇下也能积极乐观地面对生活oLauraHillenbrand在极其病弱的情况下写出了畅销书,可见是情绪能量帮助她获得了成功o题干中的emotionalenergycancontributetoone,SSucceS与此处原文中的ItwaSemotionalenergythathelpedherSucceed.相对应,故B)为答案oSSectionCPPassageOne本篇文章论述了网上购物的优缺点，并且指出网上购物越来越受到人们的欢迎O今后，随着网上付款方式安全性的提高，它定会更受欢迎O46.C)o由题干可知,本题考查网上购物的最重要的优点,定位至原文第二段o事实细节题o文章第二段的第一句话是该段的主题句：ShopingontheInternetofferSconvenienceand…,其中关键词是convenience,其他各句都是围绕“方便性”这一主题展开的oC)“给你带来方便”与文意一致,是正确答案o47.D)o根据题干可定位到原文第二段第二句o语义理解题o文章第二段第二句话提到人们可以在网上买到phySicalproductS和informationproductSo依据phySicalproductS后SuchaS引出的例子可知,bokS,CDS,clotheSandfod的共性是可见性,所以答案是D)“看得见、摸得着的东西”o48.C)o由题干可知,本题考查网络购物具体包含的内容,定位到原文第二段第二句o事实细节题o依据文章第二段第二句提到的人们可以ShopforavarietyofproductSontheInternet,包括phySicalproductS和informationproductS,接着在SuchaS后举例说明其各自包含什么产品o具体到informationproductS包括onlinenewSormagazineStorieS,由此可知答案是C)o49.D)o由题干可知,本题考查网络购物的缺点,定位到原文第三段第二句o推理判断题o文章第三段第二句提到了网络购物的缺点：无法事先检验商品的质量(youcanotactuallySeetheproductSyouarebuyingorchecktheirquality),由此可推知,网上购物时经常会发现商品质量与预期的有出入,D)项与文意一致,是正确答案o50.A)o根据题干可定位到原文最后一段o推理判断题o文章在最后一段提出iftheproblemoftheSecurityofpaymentcanbeovercome,…tryonlineShoping,即随着付款方式安全性的提高,越来越多的人会选择网上购物o说明人们还是担心网上付款的安全性,选项A)与此相符,是正确答案oPassageTwoPassageTwo本文是一篇讨论美国社会男女分工变化的文章O过去男女分工明确：男性出去赚钱，维持家庭生计；女性在家洗衣做饭，照顾子女O但是随着反传统文化势力的出现以及女权运动的兴起，男女的社会分工和家庭角色都发生了相应的变化，男性逐渐把一部分精力转移到家庭，而女性则越来越要求与男性享有同等的工作机会O51.D)51.D)o事实细节题o原文第一段就提到“过去可以根据男女的分工不同来定义男性和女性”,四级42男女从事着不同的工作，而且角色没有转换的余地，因此D)为答案o52.A)o由题干定位到原文第二段o事实细节题o原文第二段提到Takingmoreinterestinchildcare，menbegantosharechild-raisingtaskswiththeirwives.(男人对照看孩子的兴趣增强，开始与妻子共同承担抚养孩子的责任)，因此A)为答案o文中只说美国人拒绝参军入伍，而没有说正在服役的战士拒绝参加越南战争，故B)错误；C)错在al这个词上，过于绝对；D)中提到的变化是女权运动的结果，而是反传统文化的结果，故排除o53.B)o由题干定位到原文第二、三段o推理判断题o原文第二段说赞同反传统文化的人不再把成为中产阶级看作自己的奋斗目标，
