K)carelessL)unexpectedlyM)determineN)fortunatelyO)instructions

1、(Cl]

標準答案：N

知識點解析：此處需要一個副詞，評說傷勢不重。詞庫中fortunately”所幸的是”符

合句意。

2、[C2]

標準答案：K

知識點解析：填入此處的詞與negligent為并列關(guān)系，應(yīng)為形容詞或分詞。梅?沃德

認為超市公司有疏忽之處，沒有保持地面干凈?？梢姡琧areless符合語義要求。

3、[C3]

標準答案：H

知識點解析：根據(jù)空格前的denied（否認），可知此處需填入動詞過去式。后面的

“有一套合理的體系”說明這是公司在自我辯護，由比確定答案為maintained“堅持

認為

4、[C4]

標準答案：。

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，與前面的apropersystem并列，是公司為自己辯護的

理由。結(jié)合后面的“保持地面整潔''選擇詞庫中的insiructions,表示“保持地面整潔

的指示

5、[C5]

標準答案：I

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)填入形容詞或分詞，且能與介詞t。搭配。沃德太太把公司告

上了法庭是因為她覺得有理由得到賠償，填入的詞應(yīng)表“有權(quán)利”、"有理由''之類的

意思，enlilled符合條件，beentitledtosth.意為“有...的權(quán)利”。

6、[C6]

標準答案：D

知識點解析：不定冠詞a提示此處需填入名詞單數(shù)形式，而且能與makeoul形成

搭配。超市公司認為：只有證明冰激凌如何丟在地上、落在地上多久后才發(fā)生事

故，沃德太太才有理由起訴。case符合語意，makeoutacase意為“找到充分的理

由“。

7、[C7]

標準答案：A

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)填入修飾care的定語，可為形容詞、名詞或分詞。法官認為

公司如果處理得當，這類事件就不會發(fā)生。詞庫中reasonable符合句意。

8、[C8]

標準答案：C

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)填名詞作provide的賓語。句中he指上文樨到的thejudge,法

官一般需要當事人提供“證據(jù)"，故用evidenceo

9、[C9]

標準答案：J

知識點解析：didnol提示此處應(yīng)填入動詞原形，且該詞能與后面的from搭配。這

里法官指出超市公司需提供證據(jù)證明事故不是由他們造成的，即提及了造成事故的

原因，arisefrom"由...引起”強調(diào)起因,符合語境。derive雖能與from搭配,但

derivefrom"從...起源''強調(diào)起源，不符合句意。

10、[C10]

標準答案：B

知識點解析：空格位于would和be之間，應(yīng)為副詞。上文提到，法官認為得由公

司提供證據(jù)，再結(jié)合本句后面的belterposition,可知公司提供證據(jù)肯定比消費者要

容易，obviously符合句意。

12、Therehavebeenwars,murdersandabusesduetoourhumanity.

知識點解析：根據(jù)wars,murders,abuses和humanity定位到H段。該段說，要人

們接受因疾病、饑荒、戰(zhàn)爭、謀殺和虐待而失去生命的確很難，而要喜愛這些也許

13、Theonlywaytofindoutwhattheworldisreallylikeistoobserve.

theworldasitis.

標準答案：E

知識點解析：根據(jù)alternative和accepttheworldasitis定位到E段。作者的建議

喜愛這個真實的世界。本題句子是對原文的同義轉(zhuǎn)述。

17、Itisone'ssufferingthatcontributestohiscommitmentofviolence.

標準答案：I、

知識點解析：根據(jù)commitmentofviolence定位到I段。該段說，導(dǎo)致有的人實施

暴力最根本的原因可能是這個人在生命中的某一個時期在某些方面受到了傷害、遭

到了遺棄、虐待或被人忽視。本題句子的suffering概括了原文的thispersonwas

hurt...orneglectedinsomeway。

18、Itisadvocatedthatoneshouldtrytounderstandbeforemakingajudgment.

標準答案：M

reality.

標準答案：C

知識點解析：根據(jù)perfection和doesnotmatchreality定位到C段。該段指出，這個

世界永遠不會達到這種心拉圖式的理想狀態(tài)，因為這種理想只是脫離現(xiàn)實的一種完

20Whenthereisadiscrepancybetweenidealandthereality,peoplearemostlikelyto

becomedepressed.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：根據(jù)discrepancy定位到D段。該段提到，人們理想中的世界和現(xiàn)實

世界的差異會讓他們感到郁悶。本題句子是對該段后半部分內(nèi)容的概括，題目中的

depressed對應(yīng)原文的unhappiness。

三、仔細閱讀（本題共10題，每題7.0分，共10分。）

21、Whatismentionedaboutthewaveofmergerandacquisition?

A^ItiswarmlywelcomedbytheAmericanandEuropeancountries.

B、Itturnstobeanuncontrollableanti-competitiveforce.

C^Itsweepstheworldwithunprecedentedforce.

D、Itisanewtrendinthebusinessworldthatneverappearedbefore.

標準答案：c

知識點0析：選項C是對首段開頭兩句的概括，為本題答案。

22、TheauthorcitedthemultinationalsinArgentinainorderto.

A、arouseconcernoverthestabilityoftheworldeconomy

B、criticizetheoveremphasisonthedevelopmentofmultinationals

C、beacontrasttotheinsufficientconcernaboutsmallernationalfirms

D、illustratetheincreasingimportanceofmultinationalsininternationaltrades

標準答案：D

知識點解析：作者在第2段前四句提出跨國公司在國際貿(mào)易中所占份額越來越大，

而第5句以阿根廷跨國公司為例就是為了說明這一點，例子中列舉數(shù)字的增長進一

步說明了跨國公司越來越重要，選項D即表達了這一觀點。

23、Theforcesbehindthewaveofmergerandacquisitionwillresultin.

A、enhancedmarkets

B、advantagestocustomers

C、lowertradecost

D、theinitiatingofglobalization

標準答案：B「「

知識點解析：第3段第2句中的allthese指的就是本段首句提到的推動合并和收購

浪潮的力量，而第2句中的beneficialtoconsumers與選項B是同義替換，因此選

項B為本題答案。

24、TheStandardOiltrustwasbrokenupbecause.

A、theideaofmergerwasnotwelcomeacenturyago

B、itbecamesopowerfulthatitendangeredcompetition

C、itgainedonlyveryscantybenefitsfromthemarket

D、theU.S.marketwasnotyetusedtocompetition

標準答案：B

知識點解析：第4段第2句中when事實上指出了一種隱藏的因果關(guān)系，結(jié)果是

when引出的從句，而原因就是其前面主句的內(nèi)容，即標準石油托拉斯被分拆是因

為它對competilion構(gòu)成了ihreals,選項B是對這一意思的另一種表達，為正確答

案。

25>Inthelastparagraph,theauthormostprobablyagreesthat.

A、megabankingmergerswillnotappearbecauseofGreenspan'swarning

B、multihationalsalwaystrytoavoidviolatingfaircompetition

C、theattitudetowardsunfaircompetitionvanesfromnationtonation

D、theU.S.shouldn'thavesuedMicrosoftfbrunfaircompetition

標準答案：C

知識點解析：末段第4句中的shift...fromoneplacetoanother表明有些地區(qū)對違反

公平競爭的行為的限制松緊不一，即這些地區(qū)對違反公平競爭的行為的態(tài)度不相

同，因此選項C為本題答案。

26、Whichofthefollowingisatruestatementaboutthecoloringofleaves?

A、Suddencoldturnsleavesblackordullbrown.

B、Leavesarccoloredbysuddenchangeoftemperature.

C、Bright-colorleavesareseldomfoundinhotseasons.

D^Redisthemaincoloroftheautumnleaves.

標準答案：A

知識點解析:首段提到的sharpfrosts與選項A中的Suddencold同義,選項A就是

首段第2句前半部分的內(nèi)容，為本題答案。

27>Thenutrientsforthetreesareproducedin.

A、thetreefluid

B、theleavecells

C、thetreetrunks

D、thechlorophyll

標準答案：B

知識點解析：題干中的nutrients相當于第3段第2句中的bywhichthewholetreeis

fed,該句開頭的intheirtinycells表明這些營養(yǎng)物形成的地方，而由eir指的就是上

句提到的leaves,由此可推斷選項B為本題答案。

28、Yellowprevailsintheautumnleavesmainlybecause.

A、thefood-makingprocessceaseswhenitbecomescool

B、chlorophyllbreaksupintovariouspigmentsincoolweather

C>theyellowpigmentremainsintheleaveslongerthanthegreen

D、thetransferofchlorophyllinvolvescomplicatedchemicalchanges

標準答案：C\

知識點解析：第4段末句開頭的thus表明該句與前一句構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系，選項C是

對第4段倒數(shù)第2句的近義改寫，為本題答案。

29、Whichofthefollowinghasnothingtodowithchlorophyll?

A^Thenutrients-producingprocessofthetrees.

Leaveswhichturngreeninthespring.

C>Grasswhichbecomesyellowinthespring.

D、Youngleavesthatareredinthespring.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：末段首句和末句表明紅色并非來自葉綠素，末句中的buds與選項D

中的youngleaves同義，由此可見，選項D為正確的說法。

30、Theamountofsunlightmaymostprobablyinfluence.

A、thetimingwhentheleaveschangecolors

B、thequalityofthenutrientsforthetrees

C^thespeedofthefood-makingprocess

D、thevarietyofpigmentsinthechlorophyll

標準答案：B

知識點解析：原文末段第3句暗示強烈的陽光會破壞食物的品質(zhì)，由此可見，陽光

對供給植物的營養(yǎng)物會產(chǎn)生影響，即選項B的說法。

1、Thehotsprings'ownerspreventdevelopinggeothennalpowerbecausetheythinkit

might.

A^reducethetemperatureofhotsprings

B、leadtothedrynessofthehotsprings

C、promoteotherformsofrecreation

D、makethevolcanoserupt

標準答案：B

知識點解析：由題干關(guān)鍵詞hotsprings，和geothermalpower定位到第二段第二句。

由該句可知，他們認為在火山多發(fā)的日本殲采高溫蓄水層會排于溫泉，因此B)“可

能導(dǎo)致溫泉水源枯竭”與定位句的陳述一致，故為正確答案。

2^TheFukushimaaccidentinJapanresultsinthat.

A、onenuclearreactorisshutdownforalimitedtime

B>Japan'selectricityoutputisreducedtoonethird

C^theareanearbyisseriouslypolluted

D、Japanspeedsupthesearchfornewenergysources

標準答案：D

知識點解析：由題十關(guān)鍵詞Fukushimaaccident定位到第三段最后兩句。由這兩句

可知，日本核反應(yīng)堆的暫停使用導(dǎo)致日本的發(fā)電量減少了大約三分之一。這加速了
