1、[Cl]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：N

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空為“spendtimedoing”的結(jié)構(gòu).所以應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞ing形式。再根據(jù)后

面緊接賓語grandkids可知，應(yīng)選spoiling(寵愛)，意為“花更多時(shí)間去寵孫子

2、[C2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：K

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空后接形容詞different,可知需填副詞。選項(xiàng)中mysteriously（神秘

地）、radically（根本地）、separately（分開地），能與differentideas構(gòu)成搭配，花合句

意的是radically表示夫妻在此問題上有著根本不同的觀點(diǎn)。因此，正確答案是K。

3、[C3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此處缺少謂語動(dòng)詞，且要與on構(gòu)成搭配，可知為不及物動(dòng)詞。

disagreeon（執(zhí)不同意見），符合原文、、夫妻對(duì)于退休時(shí)是否繼續(xù)工作存在異議”之

意。因此，正確答案是C。

4、[C4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：O

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空為謂語動(dòng)詞，且but為并列連詞，前半句為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，此空也

應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞原形。把握此句大意的關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)在于but,前半句表達(dá)妻子一般能正確判斷

丈夫的退休年齡，由此可推斷出丈夫不能準(zhǔn)確判斷。選項(xiàng)中underestimate（低估）符

合此意。因此，正確答案是0。

5、[C5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：I

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空為表語，且前面有副詞slighUy修飾，可知此空應(yīng)填形容詞。選

項(xiàng)中confidential（機(jī)密的）、forthcoming（即將到來的）、optimistic（樂觀的），和后面生

活標(biāo)準(zhǔn)構(gòu)成搭配的只有“樂觀的”符合。因此，正確答案是I。

6、[C6]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：M

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空與副詞together構(gòu)成并列，因此，應(yīng)保持詞性一致。or連接相反

的含義，separably與logelher恰互為相反狀態(tài)，因此，止確答案是M,

separately（由?獨(dú)地）。

7、[C7]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空為該句謂語，所以需填動(dòng)詞。時(shí)態(tài)與并列的后半句保持一致，為

一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。此句含義“他們以為他們意見一致“，可知assume（假設(shè)）更符合此意。

因此，正確答案是A。

8、[C81

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：L

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：前一句表達(dá)他們以為意見一致，是自己認(rèn)為與想象的，but轉(zhuǎn)折語

氣，可知事實(shí)上相反。此句意為“事實(shí)是他們甚至都沒有談?wù)撨@個(gè)話題”。因此，正

確答案是L,teality（事實(shí)）。

9、［C9］

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空后接名詞“退.休日期“，可知需填形容詞。此句意為“常常是馬

上要來臨的退休日成為退休計(jì)劃的催化劑即人們?cè)诮咏诵輹r(shí)才會(huì)被迫開始做

計(jì)劃。因此,正確答案是E,forthcoming（即將到來的）。

10、［C10］

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：j

知識(shí)點(diǎn)點(diǎn)斤：此空前的冠詞an透露簟要填寫可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，符合條件的有

formula（公式），package［包裹，一攬子計(jì)劃），結(jié)合上下文可知caHy-retiremcnt

package意為“提前退休計(jì)劃”，因此，正確答案是J。

11、[CI]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞could和副詞significantly,空后是名詞happiness,

故此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，文章第一段提到把錢花在別人身上可以買到快樂，由此可推

知.每天為別人花5美元可以增加快樂感。選項(xiàng)中，B項(xiàng)boost意為“增加，促

進(jìn)”,O項(xiàng)improve意為“改善,提高”，improve和boost均可以用來修飾

happiness,不過boost語氣更強(qiáng)烈，與文市空前副詞significantly相呼應(yīng)，更符合

句意。因此選擇boost"增加，促進(jìn)

12、[C2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是be動(dòng)詞were,空后是形容詞比較級(jí)happier,則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)

副詞，聯(lián)系上下文，可準(zhǔn)知此句意為“即使實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)象認(rèn)為為自己花錢會(huì)更快樂，但

實(shí)際結(jié)果顯示，他們?yōu)閯e人花錢時(shí)其實(shí)更加快樂D項(xiàng)actually意為“事實(shí)上，實(shí)

際上因此選擇actually”事實(shí)上，實(shí)際上

13、[C3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：M

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是動(dòng)賓結(jié)構(gòu)，則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)詞或形容詞，該空所在句破折號(hào)

前句意為“實(shí)際結(jié)果顯示，他們?yōu)閯e人花錢時(shí)其實(shí)更加快樂”，破折號(hào)后是由evenif

引導(dǎo)的與前半句意思相反的句子，由此可推知，此空所在句意為“即使實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)象認(rèn)

為為自己花錢會(huì)更快樂”。M項(xiàng)happier意為“更快樂的因此選擇happier”更快樂

的”。

14、[C4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是人禰代詞ihey,they前是名詞money,那么此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)

詞，和they結(jié)合構(gòu)成money的后置定語，此空所在句是由asimportantas將前后部

分聯(lián)系起來，此空和spend對(duì)應(yīng)，花錢和賺錢對(duì)應(yīng)，則此處應(yīng)填earn。因此選擇

earn“獲得，掙得

15、[C5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是asksb.to結(jié)構(gòu),空后是名詞〔heirgeneralhappiness,則此處

應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，根據(jù)下一段內(nèi)容“為別人花更多錢的人稱自己的快樂感增強(qiáng)，而為

自己花較多錢的人則沒有這種感受這是作者對(duì)志愿者針對(duì)自己快樂感的評(píng)價(jià)的

轉(zhuǎn)述，C項(xiàng)rale意為“評(píng)價(jià)”。因此選擇rate“評(píng)價(jià)”。

16、[C6]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：1

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)此空所在句后半句內(nèi)容“為別人花更多錢的人稱自己的快樂感增

強(qiáng)，而為自己花較多錢的人則沒有這種感受。”可推知，前半句應(yīng)是一個(gè)讓步狀語

從句，I項(xiàng)regardless與空后of結(jié)合構(gòu)成短語regardlessof,意為“無論，不管，因

此選擇regardless”不管,不顧”。

17、[C7]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案；H

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是profit-sharing（分紅制），空后是具體的金額范圍，則此處應(yīng)填

一個(gè)與金錢有關(guān)的名詞，選項(xiàng)中H項(xiàng)bonus意為“獎(jiǎng)金”，加之下文中多次出現(xiàn)

bonus,故bonus符合題意。因此選擇bonus“獎(jiǎng)金

18、[C8J

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析:空前是定語從句引導(dǎo)詞who,空后是名詞moreoftheirbonus,則此

處應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，聯(lián)系上下文推知此句意為“這些員工領(lǐng)到獎(jiǎng)金后，將較多錢花在

別人身上的人快樂感更強(qiáng)”，選項(xiàng)中G項(xiàng)devoied意為“奉獻(xiàn)”，與介詞to搭配，意

為“將……奉獻(xiàn)給……”，符合題意。因此選擇devoted“奉獻(xiàn)”。

19、[C9]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：K

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是形容詞important,空后是介詞of.則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)名詞，聯(lián)

系上下文推知，此句意為'、他們支配這筆錢的方式比獎(jiǎng)金本身的多少對(duì)快樂感的影

響更大?！边x項(xiàng)中K項(xiàng)prediclor意為“預(yù)測(cè)器”，即他們支配這筆錢的方式是更重要

的快樂感的預(yù)測(cè)器，這是一種打比方的說法，符合原文意思。因此選擇

predictor“預(yù)測(cè)器”。

20、[C10]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：L

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是形容詞clear,空后是介詞。n,則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)名詞，根據(jù)此

段已有內(nèi)容“研究人員向志愿者們分發(fā)了5美元至20美元金額不等的錢……結(jié)果發(fā)

現(xiàn)，將錢用于別人或其池事情的人感到更快樂.”推知，研究人員告訴其中一組人

花錢的方式，這樣才會(huì)使兩組實(shí)驗(yàn)人員形成對(duì)比。L項(xiàng)instruction意為”指示，指

導(dǎo)”,符合文意。因此選擇instruction”指示,指導(dǎo)”。

21、[Cl]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：j

知識(shí)點(diǎn)3析：本文主要講述了不良的飲食習(xí)慣導(dǎo)致工作效率下降的問題.由此可推

知，此空所在句意為“三分之一的上班族早上寧愿多睡幾分鐘，也不愿起床吃早

餐”。選項(xiàng)中，J項(xiàng)extra意為“額外的”,符合句意。因此選擇extra“額外的”。

22、[C2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：M

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前是形容詞losl(喪失的)，則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)名詞，結(jié)合句意推知，

員工不良的飲食習(xí)慣導(dǎo)致工作效率喪失，從而給公司造成了巨大損失。M項(xiàng)

productivity意為“效率，生產(chǎn)力”，符合句意。因此選擇productivity“效率，生產(chǎn)

力”。

23、[C3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：I

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前的中心詞是名詞officestaff,空后是動(dòng)詞skip,則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)

副詞，修飾動(dòng)詞skip,根據(jù)后半句中的withthesepooreatinghabits可推知，此處指

的是不良的飲食習(xí)慣，那么應(yīng)該指經(jīng)常不吃午餐的員工。I項(xiàng)regularly意為“經(jīng)常

地”，符合句意。因此選擇regularly“經(jīng)常地”。

24、[C4I

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空所填的詞與副詞never并列，故應(yīng)填一個(gè)具有否定意義的副詞，

選項(xiàng)中，只有B項(xiàng)rarely(很少地)是具有否定意義的副詞，填進(jìn)去后句意為“令人擔(dān)

憂的是，在那些很少或從來不吃午餐的人中，27%的人也從不吃早餐。符合原文意

思，因此選擇rarely“很少地”，

25、[C5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前的中心詞是Thesurvey,空后是省略掉【hat的從句，故此處應(yīng)填

一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，根據(jù)前文類似句子“withthesepooreatinghabitsestimatedtobecosting

companies17billionpounds($34billion)ayearor97millionlostworkingdays.結(jié)合備

選動(dòng)詞中C項(xiàng)estimated“估計(jì)”，K項(xiàng)specified“明確”，O項(xiàng)rocketed“快速增加”可

知，C項(xiàng)動(dòng)詞estimated符合題意。

26、[C6]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：N

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：此空所填詞和ability并列，故應(yīng)填一個(gè)名詞，根據(jù)常識(shí)判斷，不吃

早餐的人很難長(zhǎng)時(shí)間集中注意力，也就是“是否吃早餐與注意力集中時(shí)間長(zhǎng)度、學(xué)

習(xí)能力及總體幸福感有關(guān)”。選項(xiàng)中N項(xiàng)span意為“跨度，范圍”，符合句意。因此

選擇span“跨度，范圍”。

27、[C7]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：0

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前句意為“如果將其他一些不良的飲食習(xí)慣也算上，如早餐和午餐

都不吃或不吃早餐而吃零食，公司所遭受的損失……”，空后是具體數(shù)據(jù)：近170

億英鎊，與上一段中提到的“81億英鎊”對(duì)比，突顯出損失額的增加幅度之大。選

項(xiàng)中O項(xiàng)rocketed有“快速增加”之意，與介詞to搭配，意為“迅速增加到"，符合

句意。因此選擇rocketed''快速增加”。

28、[C8]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前主謂結(jié)構(gòu)完整，空后中心詞是drinks,故此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)形容詞，

根據(jù)常識(shí)，科學(xué)的飲水習(xí)慣是每天喝八杯水左右，即每天喝八杯水左右是受人推薦

的飲水習(xí)慣。選項(xiàng)中，F(xiàn)項(xiàng)recommended意為“被推薦的”，符合句意。因此選擇

recommended”被推薦的

29、[C9]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前中心詞是be動(dòng)詞are,空后是形容詞energetic,故此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)

副詞.吃早餐的人更具活力，當(dāng)然指的是身體狀態(tài)，A項(xiàng)physically意為“身體上

地”，符合句意。因此選擇physically”身體上地”。

30、[C10]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：空前句結(jié)溝完整，空后是名詞theirproductivity.則此處應(yīng)填一個(gè)動(dòng)

詞的現(xiàn)在分詞形式，表伴隨意義。根據(jù)此段內(nèi)容“研究人員稱，不吃早餐的人記憶

力測(cè)試得分約低15%。血且早上小吃飯的人之后可能會(huì)吃甜食和高脂肪食

品……”，可知，前后兩甸是遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，故此句應(yīng)為否定意義，即“降低他們的效

率”,G項(xiàng)reducing意為“減少”，符合句意。因此選擇reducing"減少
