參考答案

1.B解析：根據(jù)第七段可知，大腦衰老最慢的人群是律師。

2.B解析：第一段以及通篇。這篇小故事講的就是開(kāi)車司機(jī)在進(jìn)入主路時(shí)見(jiàn)停車標(biāo)志要停車，看見(jiàn)減速標(biāo)志要降低速度開(kāi)慢車。故事中的情景是有的路段是停車標(biāo)志，而有的路段是減速標(biāo)志，這才有故事的發(fā)生。

3.A文中第五句提到除了加拿大和意大利之外，所有國(guó)家給予教育類節(jié)目的時(shí)間都比其他節(jié)日(信息或娛樂(lè)類)多。

4.D

5.D

6.D解析：?jiǎn)柲囊环N訂票方式可能會(huì)有附加費(fèi)用。答案為Bypost。依據(jù)是Bypost項(xiàng)下說(shuō)：oradd50ptothetotalamounttocoverpostage.意思是“或者是在票價(jià)總額上再加上50便士的郵資”。

7.B解析：細(xì)節(jié)辨認(rèn)題。由第四段"Thewrittenexamination,whereallthestudentsaretestedonthesamequestions,wasprobablynotknownuntilthenineteenthcentury.Itperhapscameintoexistencewiththegreatincreaseinpopulationandthedevelopmentofmodernindustry"可得出正確答案為B。

8.B37．第四段。文中說(shuō)，“保護(hù)警報(bào)”機(jī)構(gòu)就是將誘拐兒童的信息報(bào)告給各電臺(tái)、電視臺(tái)，通過(guò)它們傳給公眾。但如果是父母誘拐了自己的孩子，就不用于此機(jī)構(gòu)。既然如此，各電臺(tái)就不會(huì)報(bào)導(dǎo)此消息。選項(xiàng)B是正確的。

9.A48．答案為A

此考題為細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第2段第2句Peoplemadenoiseinancienttimestodriveawaytheevilspiritsfromtheirhomes，就可肯定A正確。

10.A解析：參見(jiàn)句子：Asdidmanyotherboysofhisday，Twaindreamedoftravelingonriverboatsandofsomedaybecomingariverboatpilot．

11.A54．答案為A

此考題為細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第2段的前兩句...itsclear，sunny，rain-freeweather，

whichallowedpicturestobetakenalltheyearround．Also，itwasknownthateverykindofsceneneededforfilms，whethertown，country，sea，desertorsnow-cappedmountains，couldhefoundwithintheareaofCalifornia，我們便可以認(rèn)定正確答案為A。

12.B

13.C解析：見(jiàn)原文第二段。鳥(niǎo)利用螞蟻為它整理羽毛是一種不尋常的方式。根據(jù)上下文可以判斷出詞義。

14.D解析：文中第四段第三行“…mostpeoplevisitAlaskainordertoseetheendlessbeautyofnature…”，表明Alaska吸引游客的地方是它美麗的景色。

15.B解析：參見(jiàn)文章第一句。

16.A解析：第2段第1，第4行分別說(shuō)明了亞裔成功的兩個(gè)原因，點(diǎn)明了題意。

17.B解析：本題屬細(xì)節(jié)題。文章第五句已明確點(diǎn)明。

18.B參考第一段第二句。

19.D解析：文章從消費(fèi)市場(chǎng)、影視、學(xué)校、健康護(hù)理等方面講老齡化給美國(guó)社會(huì)方方面面帶來(lái)的影響，與D項(xiàng)符合。

20.D解析：從上下文進(jìn)行推測(cè)可知。

21.C解析：?jiǎn)栕髡呔芙^接受小費(fèi)是為什么。這道題可以從第三段一、二句得出答案C。Themanagerandeveryoneelsewhowereastepabovetheboxboysoftenshoutedorders．Oneofthesewas：youcouldn’taccepttips．作者從親身經(jīng)歷中感覺(jué)到顧客給小費(fèi)是一種自然的表示感謝的做法。而aboxboy拒絕接受小費(fèi)往往會(huì)傷害顧客的感情。一方堅(jiān)持要給而另一方拒不接受，會(huì)影響顧客和超市之間的友好關(guān)系。而aboxboy接受小費(fèi)又會(huì)違反超市的規(guī)定。注意第三段Acceptingtipswasafriendlythingandmadethecustomerfeelgood．Ijustcouldn’tunderstandthestrangenessofsomepeople’sideas．句中somepeople指的是那些規(guī)定禁止收取小費(fèi)的人。這段最后一句Iwouldhavehadtothrowthequarteratheroreatenitorsomething．是虛擬語(yǔ)氣?？梢钥醋魇∪チ薸fIhadtriednottobreaktherule(要是我想要不違反規(guī)定)，我就不得不把那個(gè)25美分的硬幣扔回去，或吞下去，或什么的。

22.C解析：參見(jiàn)句子：hepickeditupjustintimetorushofftohisplane．

23.D

24.D解析：2000年是克林頓在任美國(guó)總統(tǒng)的最后一年。

25.C解析：這篇文章主要講了Williams寫(xiě)這本書(shū)的目的是讓人們找寶。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。其他三項(xiàng)都只是文章中整個(gè)事件的一部分，不是主題。

26.D

27.D解析：服務(wù)生說(shuō)的是旅館的安排，可見(jiàn)史密斯太太沒(méi)理解服務(wù)生的話。

28.C

29.A解析：根據(jù)文中第三段第五行“Thousandsofpeoplelinedtheroutetoencouragehim…”可知，答案為A項(xiàng)。

30.A42．答案為A

根據(jù)第二段的描述可知McGaritygirl面對(duì)饑餓的孩子無(wú)動(dòng)于衷，自私又冷酷，因此選A。

31.A解析：這里是介紹對(duì)鐵路持反對(duì)觀點(diǎn)的人的看法，故A項(xiàng)station即“車站”符合題意。

32.D操持語(yǔ)言的人數(shù)可以估計(jì)，但人們掌握語(yǔ)言的程度就很難估計(jì)了，所以用impossible。

33.D27．前面已經(jīng)說(shuō)了，在座位間進(jìn)出不方便，是因?yàn)橥鹊K事。Intheway擋道兒，固定短語(yǔ)。選項(xiàng)D是正確的。

34.D解析：asitis“正是如此”，固定搭配。

35.B解析：keepup此處指“使速度不降下來(lái)”。

36.D解析：Mere僅僅的、純粹的，very恰恰(起強(qiáng)調(diào)作用)，just僅僅、正好，only唯一的。選項(xiàng)D是正確的。

37.D解析：詞義辨析題。quiteafew…表示“相當(dāng)多的……”，切合題意。

38.B解析：瑪麗同她的兄弟一起為許多博物館、科學(xué)家等提供了整理好的化石標(biāo)本。

39.B

40.B解析：只有“好奇的”符合句意，故用B。

41.C解析：總之，兩千是二十個(gè)一百。

42.A23．后面說(shuō)，雞蛋可以作為一餐的一部分，那么也就可以不與其他的飯菜相配了。選項(xiàng)A是正確的。

43.D解析：regulate規(guī)范，管理。此處作后置定語(yǔ)，主謂關(guān)系。

44.B

45.D解析：本題屬詞選題。本句要說(shuō)的意思是：他們開(kāi)始討厭游客，并對(duì)他們不禮貌。Treatthemimpolitely是對(duì)……不禮貌的意思。

46.A解析：guilty表“有罪的”，與下文“innocent”(無(wú)罪的)對(duì)應(yīng)。

47.B解析：本題屬推理分析題。這句話要表達(dá)的意思是：旅游帶來(lái)了太多的人流車輛，所以居民們就很厭煩和不高興(unhappy)。

48.D這是since的句型。前面是現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，后面是一般過(guò)去時(shí)。自從買了手機(jī)，他的日子就沒(méi)安靜過(guò)。

49.D解析：grateful感激的。

50.B戶外鍛煉，定時(shí)飲水，避免晚飯吃得過(guò)晚和憂愁，都有助于睡眠。因此答案應(yīng)該是exercises。

51.D本題考查固定句型。

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：——我經(jīng)常乘火車旅行?！獮槭裁床辉囋嚦孙w機(jī)呢?Whynot后應(yīng)跟動(dòng)詞原形；trydoingsth．試著做某事：

52.C本題考查名詞性從句的引導(dǎo)詞。

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：她對(duì)我們來(lái)說(shuō)是非常重要的，我們已經(jīng)做好一切準(zhǔn)備來(lái)拯救她的生命。

whatever引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句，在從句中作賓語(yǔ)；用whichever引導(dǎo)，則表示“任何哪個(gè)”，與題意不符。

53.A本題考查虛擬語(yǔ)氣的用法。

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：教師們建議：為了安全起見(jiàn)，父母不應(yīng)讓l2歲以下的孩子騎自行車去學(xué)校。這里是recmmend引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句，從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用“should+動(dòng)詞原形”，should可以省。

54.Ctakeadvantageof為固定搭配，其余為干擾項(xiàng)。

55.B主語(yǔ)是表示人的名詞或代詞時(shí)，要用pay…for這一搭配，不可用take或cost，所以C和D都不符合。spend可以用，但要用sped…on這一搭配。

56.C解析：考副詞的位置。副詞應(yīng)置于助動(dòng)詞和動(dòng)詞之間。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。

57.C表示否定的“也”的句型常用neither(nor)+助動(dòng)詞+主語(yǔ)，這是一種倒裝用法。

58.D

59.D本題考查疑問(wèn)代詞的選擇。主句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞show“展示，顯示”用來(lái)說(shuō)明how“怎樣”最為合適。

60.D解析：這種插入語(yǔ)以一般疑問(wèn)句的形式置于特殊疑問(wèn)詞之后，該結(jié)構(gòu)中的特殊疑問(wèn)句用正常的陳述句語(yǔ)序，不可倒裝。故正確答案為D。2022年江西省宜春市成考專升本英語(yǔ)學(xué)校:________班級(jí):________姓名:________考號(hào):________
