參考答案

1.C解析：參見句子：Thehumansenseofsmell，however，isreallyquitegood．

2.D

3.D詞義猜測題。

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】從第一段最后一句可知，back．groundmusic是人們工作時聽的音樂。

4.B解析：文章第2行講到“gainingamajority”，過半數(shù)即為大部分，故選B。

5.C文章最后一段最后一句it"snicetoknow…atleastyourcountryisbest意思是在某一方面你們國家是最好的，選C。

6.A

7.B解析：參見原文第三段。他們拖著沉重的身體慢慢地爬行，如同爬山一樣?？梢韵胂笃淦D苦。

8.D

9.C文章第二段第三句“…themoregracefulandleisurely…oldFrenchstyle”指出過去法國人的生活特點。A、B、D項都屬現(xiàn)代法國人生活的內(nèi)容，因而答案應(yīng)是C項。

10.B解析：第1段首句講textbooks為了“inform”，第2段第5行講其他寫作是為了“persuade”，所以textbookwriters比其他著者更加客觀，選B。

11.C解析：第二段。除了第一段提到的非常方便、實用、周到的生活設(shè)施外，離這個野營地不遠的別墅村還提供了多種娛樂場所、設(shè)施和活動。

12.B解析：第三段說，馬戲團的發(fā)言人申明解雇Cusick是為了保護其他人的安全。

13.D

14.B

15.C

16.D答案為D。根據(jù)題干在第二段最后一句，ThemostfamoussleighbellsintheworldbelongtoSantaClaus作出該項選擇。FatherChristmas是SantaClaus的另一種說法。

17.C解析：本題為主旨歸納題。由第二段“Babieswilllearntobehaveinwaysthatproduceresultsintheworldwithnorewardexceptthesuccessfuloutcome”，作者否定了為了獲得“報償”而學(xué)習(xí)的觀點，并指出他們是為了成功而學(xué)習(xí)。在最后一段作者再一次指出“itwasthesuccesstheywereachievinginsolvingtheproblem…”。

18.B解析：本題屬細節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第二段第三句的意思，就可找出答案。

19.D解析：細節(jié)辨認題。根據(jù)第四段中“Inthe1840s，MauryhadbeenresponsibleforencouragingvoyagesduringwhichsoundingsweretakentoinvestigatethedepthsoftheNorthAtlanticandPacificOceans"可得出正確答案為D。

20.C

21.D

22.A解析：summit意為“頂點”。

23.C解析：文中第三段談到了對抗能量周期的事情，可知答案是C項。

24.D解析：本題屬主旨題。文章主要介紹：glaciers的變化及真對北美洲造成的影響。

25.C

26.D36．答案為D

根據(jù)文章第1段第4句Itwasanoldroadthatusedtobeverybusy—anddangerOtis—beforethemotorwaywasbuilt，我們可以斷定D正確。

27.B

28.C解析：從第二段最后兩句可以推斷出正確答案應(yīng)為C。

29.D

30.A解析：從上下文來看，野狗在獲取獵物后先喂飽小狗。作者認為此舉是非凡的。

31.B解析：從后半句里taken一詞，可以斷定答案應(yīng)為B選項pictures。這個詞和上一句里的photos同義，都表示“照片”之意。英語里“拍照片”就是takeaphoto或者takeapicture。A選項。rules“規(guī)則”，C選項handbooks“手冊”和D選項performances“表演”在此都不適用。

32.C解析：本題測試辨別詞形相似詞的能力。raise是及物動詞，后面不跟from；rouse和arouse均有“喚醒”之意；arise則意為“出現(xiàn)，產(chǎn)生”，常與from連用。

33.B解析：下面是考試的五個步驟。

34.B根據(jù)上下文，該句的意思是“那就是……的原因(That"swhy…)”。

35.B解析：根據(jù)句意，報紙上不僅刊登回信，而且把問詢信也刊登在報紙上。alongwith...意為“和……一起”。

36.C

37.B解析：excursion意為“短途旅行;”journey意為“(從一地到另一地的)長距離，具體的旅途”；travel意為“旅行，旅游，海外旅行”；trip意為“旅行，遠足”。

38.D通過女孩后面所說的話判斷，她喜歡聽著音樂做功課。

39.A解析：讓孩子聽著音樂做作業(yè)，這是一種“新的”方式。

40.A解析：根據(jù)上文內(nèi)容可知，修車工早就預(yù)料到“我”會誤入歧途，因此應(yīng)選A項。

41.B解析：詞義辨析題。alargenumberof…意為“大量的……”。

42.Acharge收費，cost花費，bill開賬單，budget預(yù)算。根據(jù)上下文，30個人用餐，他每人收費1500英鎊。選項A是正確的。

43.D解析：本題測試從篇章水平上理解文章意思的能力。從其后所跟的nevertotouchit可以看出作者在此想表達很強的轉(zhuǎn)折意義。

44.C

45.A

46.D解析：本題屬句法題。名詞性物主代詞可以單獨使用，me所有格形式是mine，指代上文中的mymistake。

47.A解析：他的父親為此非常難過以至離開了這個世界。

48.A解析：where在從句中引導(dǎo)地點狀語從句。

49.A解析：本題屬推理題。本句話要表達的意思是：他們忘記了游客能給他們國家的經(jīng)濟帶來多大的好處。故答案為A．forget(忘記)。

50.A解析：本題考的是固定搭配。addto是一個詞組，表示“增加”的意思，符合該句的意思。

51.C15．答案為C

你很少做飯，不是嗎?seldom“很少……”，帶否定意味，因此反意疑問句用肯定形式。而且主句中haveto為情態(tài)動詞，不是實義動詞。

52.B15．答案為B

與將來事實相反的虛擬語氣，只能選should。

53.DSoshehas意思是“她是進來了”。因為第一句中有助動詞has，第二句必須用has，所以A、B。都不對。因為第二句的主語與第一句的主語是同一人，所以不倒裝。如果不是同一人時，要倒裝，所以C不對。

54.C6．答案為C

指到過去某叫為止的事情。

55.Dsuggest后必須接動名詞。A．go是動詞原形；B．togo是不定式，兩者都不可以用；C．thatgo，that后沒有主語，也不符合。

56.B解析：條件狀語從句中常用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)表示將來。

57.B

58.C

59.B

60.A16．答案為A

參考譯文：現(xiàn)在要去做的事情就是我首先急切想要知道的事。但是我如何才能知道呢?第一個空what是在不定式短語中，意思是要去做的“事情”。第二個空what是引導(dǎo)表語從句，意思是要知道的“事情”。此題其他選項that或which都不能代替這種意義。山東省濟南市成考專升本英語學(xué)校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
