D^Childrenwhoareeducatedathomeareknownas"home-schoolers."

義，因此選D。

A^ImpactonSchoolEducation

B>AChangedViewofIntelligence

C、MainResultsofRecentResearches

D、EffectofEnvironmentonIntelligence

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】本題使用了同義詞替換的選擇技巧，段落中主要講述的是智力本質(zhì)

的現(xiàn)代簡潔必定會(huì)對(duì)學(xué)校教育產(chǎn)生影響(boundtohavesomeeffectonourschool

system.),選項(xiàng)A中只是將名詞effect換為impact。

第6題【單選題】

3

A、shehadmanagedtosavesomuchmoney

B>shegavehermoneytoAfricanAmericans

C、shegaveherlifesavingstohelpothersthroughuniversity

D、sheonlyspentmoneyoncheapthings

【正確答案】c

【答案解析】答案選C。only是絕對(duì)詞，在選項(xiàng)D中出現(xiàn)，根據(jù)經(jīng)驗(yàn)排除D；對(duì)

照原文第一自然段最后一句話therewassomethingquiteexceptionalaboutthis

woman說她有些特別的地方，接著第二自然段就講Inthesummerof1995,

McCartygave$150,000,mostofthemoneyshehadsavedthroughoutherlife,to

theUniversityofSouthernMississippiinherhometown.她把大部分積攢的錢捐獻(xiàn)

給了家鄉(xiāng)的大學(xué)，A和B表達(dá)都不全面，答案是C。

第7題【單選題】

【閱讀判斷】Backin1969,USPresidentRichardNixonconfidentlypredicted:"Inthe

next50years,weshallseeawomanpresident,perhapssoonerthanyouthink."

Today,nottoofaroffNixon'sdeadline,Americaislookingatthatpossibility.Overthe

weekend,HillaryRodhamClinton,wifeofformerpresidentBillClinton,announced

herrunfor2008presidency.Q:Uptothepresent,nowomanhasbeenelected

presidentintheUS.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選Ao問題句說"迄今為止在美國沒有一個(gè)女人曾經(jīng)被選舉為

總統(tǒng)”。本段說的是“1969年，美國總統(tǒng)RichardNixon很有信心地預(yù)測(cè)：'在下一

個(gè)50年里，我們將會(huì)看見一個(gè)女總統(tǒng)，這或許比你想象的更快些"今天距離

Nixon總統(tǒng)給出的最終期限已經(jīng)不遠(yuǎn)了，美國人現(xiàn)在正關(guān)注這可能性”。相鄰語句

的句意相關(guān)，顯然，定冠詞結(jié)構(gòu)"thepossibility"指答案相關(guān)句中提到的"可能出現(xiàn)

美國女總統(tǒng)"。從該句中可以推斷出“從1969年到現(xiàn)在為止，美國還沒有出現(xiàn)女

4

總統(tǒng)〃。因此問題句提供了正確信息。

第8題【單選題】

Iftheoperationcarefullyprepared,itwouldnothavebeensuccessful.

A、wasnot

B、hasnotbeen

C、hadnotbeen

D^werenot

【正確答案】c

【答案解析】題目意思：如果這個(gè)操作（或手術(shù)）沒有充分準(zhǔn)備就不能成功了。

本題是語法題：虛擬語氣。本題是與過去的事實(shí)相違背

第9題【單選題】

【閱讀判斷】Overtheweekend,HillaryRodhamClinton,wifeofformerpresidentBill

Clinton,announcedherrunfor2008presidency.Thisispartlyduetothebiased

thinkingthatwomenareweakonnationalsecurity,thoughtheymightbestrongon

contender.Q:OneofHillary'scampaignpromisesistoreformthenation'shealthcare

system.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】c

【答案解析】答案選c。問題句說“Hillary的一個(gè)競(jìng)選承諾是改革國家的醫(yī)療制度」

而本段只是說"女人做教育和醫(yī)療方面的工作有優(yōu)勢(shì)"，沒有說Hillary的一個(gè)競(jìng)選

承諾式改革國家的醫(yī)療制度，因此問題句的信息在文章中沒有被提到。

第10題【單選題】

Inourdepartment,everystudentafter-schoolactivities.

5

A、goinfor

B>goesinfor

C、takepart

D、takespart

【正確答案】B

A、aggression

B、advantage

C、alternative

D、ambition

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】本題考查詞義選擇。譯文：如果我們收不到付款，那就只好訴諸法

律了。A挑釁、侵犯；B優(yōu)勢(shì)、優(yōu)點(diǎn)；C選擇、取舍；D野心、抱負(fù)。

effectively.RobotsarelesspopularinBritaintodaypartlybecause.

A>toomuchenergy

B、basedonAmericandesigns

C、theyaretoocostly

D^theyarenotreliable

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】本段第二句就是講的兩個(gè)原因，即人們的工資水平太低，也就是沒

有能力使機(jī)器人發(fā)揮出創(chuàng)造財(cái)富的作用，言下之意就是成本高。第二個(gè)原因就是

人們逐漸意識(shí)到了操縱機(jī)器人不是件容易的事情，所以使用率就下降了。所以應(yīng)

該選C。

第14題【單選題】

【閱讀判斷】Herculesservedaking.Thekingwasafraidofhim.Soagainandagain

hesenthimondifficulttasks.Onemorningthekingsentforhimandtoldhimto

fetchthreegoldenapplesforhimfromthegardenoftheSingingMaidens（歌女）.But

nooneknewwherethegardenwas.Q:Herculeswasgivenmanydifficulttasks

becausethekingwantedtogetridofhim.

A>True

B^False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選A。句子的意思是：國王想除掉Hercules,所以交給他很多

艱巨的工作去做。這個(gè)信息在短文第二句和第三句中提到了，與短文的意思相符

7

（國王很害怕Hercules,多次交給他艱巨的工作去做），由此可以推斷本題的正確

選項(xiàng)為A。

第15題【單選題】

【填句補(bǔ)文】""Geochemistsjustwantanintuitivesenseofwhat'sgoingonwiththe

C、“Iimaginecontourlineswouldbegoodforundergraduates/

D^Buthehasaddedcontourlinestochargedensity,helpingtoexplainwhichions

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】這一段是劍橋大學(xué)的AlbertGaly的原話，我們可以從引導(dǎo)整個(gè)關(guān)鍵

點(diǎn)得出答案。即：〃地學(xué)化學(xué)家們只想通過直覺判斷元素的活動(dòng)。我想等高線對(duì)

學(xué)生們有好處〃。

第16題【單選題】

A、inlargemeasure

B^totheminimum

C、inshortsupply

D、tothemaximum

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】本題考查短語意義辨析。這個(gè)地區(qū)在一年中的這個(gè)時(shí)候魚的供應(yīng)不

足，價(jià)格昂貴。inshortsupply：缺貨、供貨不足。

第17題【單選題】

[2007.04]Havingdecidedtorentaflat,wecontactinghousingagencies

inthecity.

A、setabout

B^setdown

C、setout

D^setup

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】本題考查關(guān)于set的短語。contactinghousingagencies：聯(lián)系房屋

中介。根據(jù)句意，應(yīng)該選setabout。setabout：開始做某事。setdown：放下，

擱下；記下，記載，寫下。setout：出發(fā)，開始，后面跟tod。sth。setup：建

立（事業(yè)）；成立（組織）；為某人提供必需品或有用的東西。

第18題【單選題】

When,waterwillbeturnedintosteam.

A、heated

B、heating

C、beingheat

D、havingheated

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】水被加熱時(shí)會(huì)變成蒸汽。因?yàn)橹骶渲髡Zwater和從句謂語heat的

關(guān)系是被動(dòng)的，所以用過去分詞。

第19題【單選題】

A>shutdown

B、doneaway

C、goneoff

D>calledoff

【正確答案】D

9

【答案解析】本題考查詞義辨析。calloff：取消，符合句意。shutdown：關(guān)閉（工

廠）；（工廠）停工，關(guān)閉。doaway常與with搭配，構(gòu)成doawaywith。gooff：

爆炸，（鬧鈴）響。
