第2题【单选题】

【阅读选择】Duringthehourswhenyoulabourthroughyourworkyoumaysaythat

you're"hot".That/strue.Thetimeofdaywhenyoufeelmostenergeticiswhenyour

cycleofbodytemperatureisatitspeak.Forsomepeoplethepeakcomesduringthe

morning.Forothersitcomesintheafternoonorevening.Noonehasdiscovered

temperature-and-energypeakintheevening.Muchfamilyquarrellingendsv/hen

husbandsandwivesrealizewhattheseenergycyclesmean,andwhichcycleeach

accordingtothepassage?

A、Unawarenessofenergycycles.

B、Familiarmonologues.

C、Achangeinafamilymember/senergycycle.

1

D、Attemptstocontroltheenergycycleofotherfamilymembers.

【正确答案】A

【答案解析】本题的关键是看懂本段的最后一句(即："Muchfamilyquarrellingends

whenhusbandsandwivesrealizewhattheseenergycyclesmean,andwhichcycle

eachmemberofthefamilyhas.z,),同时联系本段的第四句和第五句(即："Forsome

peoplethepeakcomesduringthemorning.Forothersitcomesintheafternoonor

evening.〃)的意思。该句的直接意思是〃如果丈夫和妻子能明白能量周期是怎么

回事，以及家庭每个成员有什么样的周期，很多家庭争吵就会停止。〃也就是说，

家庭争吵的发生是因为丈夫和妻子不了解能量周期是怎么回事，更谈不上了解每

个家庭成员有什么样的能量周期了。因此A项：Unawarenessofenergycycles(不

知道能量周期)应是正确答案。

A、hasourcountrybeen

B、hasbeenourcountry

C、ourcountryhasbeen

D、ourcountrybeenhas

【答案解析】本题考查名词从句中的虚拟语气。译文:我已经从老板那得到指令，

这项工作在今天下午五点钟之前要完成。详细解答：that引导同位语从句，说明

order的内容。同时从句要用虚拟语气，从句谓语用should+动词原形的形式，

should可以省略。

【正确答案】D

onceaweek,theyinventnewwaystomeettheseneedsandbuildmodelsoftheir

creations可知答案为De句中的aid意为"帮助"，与help同义。

第9题【单选题】

【阅读判断】Overthev/eekend,HillaryRodhamClinton,wifeofformerpresidentBill

Clinton,announcedherrunfor2008presidency.Thisispartlyduetothebiased

contender.Q:OneofHillary'scampaignpromisesistoreformthenation'shealthcare

system.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正确答案】C

【答案解析】答案选C。问题句说"Hillary的一个竞选承诺是改革国家的医疗制度J

而本段只是说“女人做教育和医疗方面的工作有优势〃，没有说Hillary的一个竞选

承诺式改革国家的医疗制度，因此问题句的信息在文章中没有被提到。

第10题【单选题】

（填句补文】Arms.Howyouholdyourarmsshowshowopenandreceptiveyouare

topeopleyoumeet.Ifyoukeepyourarmstothesidesofyourbodyorbehindyour

back,thissuggestsyouarenotafraidoftakingonwhatevercomesyourway.

C、However,itwillprobablystillbenoticed,andpeoplewillknowyou'renot

pleased.

D、Ifyouarepleased,youusuallyopenyoureyeswideandpeoplecannoticethis.

【正确答案】A

【答案解析】本题可以采用线索词来定位。空格处的前后两个句子都是对arms

在具体情况下具体动作的描述。那么用以补充的句子也应是如此，即选项A开朗

的人和沉默寡言的人手臂的动作，符合条件。

第11题【单选题】

[2007.04]Thecentraltheatrehasaseatingofmorethan3,000people.

A、capability

B、capacity

C、ability

D、facility

【正确答案】B

【答案解析】本题考查词义辨析。ability主要指天赋的能力或应用知识的才能，

应该是属于那种己经具备并发展较快的能力。如"Hehasunusualabilityinscience"。

capability与ability不同的是，它不仅能用于人,也可用于物,如：Electronic

refinements,however,havegreatlyextendedtheusesandcapabilitiesofsomeof

theolderelectricaldevices,capacity指容纳或吸收事物的能力，可用于人和物。

如"Thehallhasaseatingcapacityof500”。根据句意,本题应该选capacity。

第12题【单选题】

.Thismakesbreathingmoredifficult,whichinturncanmakeyoufeel

nervousoruncomfortable.

inwards.

B、Bodylanguageisabroadtermforseveralformsofcommunicationusingbody

movementsorgestures.

C、Bodylanguagediffersfromculturetoculture.

D、Ifyouareatinterviews,trytokeepthemstill.

【正确答案】A

【答案解析】本段讲的是身体姿势。填充句后一个句子提到“this〃会使呼吸更加

困难，this显然指的是一种不太好的身体姿势，因此本题答案为A。

第13题【单选题】

C、shegaveherlifesavingstohelpothersthroughuniversity

【正确答案】C

woman说她有些特别的地方，接着第二自然段就讲Inthesummerof1995,

McCartygave$150,000,mostofthemoneyshehadsavedthroughoutherlife,to

【答案解析】答案选Co题目说的是"这五位百岁老人生活在一个非常友好的社
