8、[Pl]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：c

知識點。析：本段開頭介紹了最大的一起信用卡盜竊案，空白處前一句講的是一個

如何作案。選項C符合題意。

9、[P2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點解析：空白處上文闡述了這一犯罪的嚴(yán)重性，前一句講的是信貸公司每年賺

1.3萬億，其中2%的攻入被騙子詐取。后一句講的是就目前，你自己該采取防范

措施了，顯然空白處要選擇銀行方面防護(hù)薄弱的句子。選項D：“So,thcreHittle

financialincentivefbrthemtomaketheapplicalionprocessmoresecure."意為：“因

此，幾乎沒有任何金錢的刺激來促使他們把申請過程做得更安全一些?！狈项}

意。

10、[P3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

11、[P4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

Eo

12、[P5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識點解析：空白處前一句講的是假設(shè)你住在免費服務(wù)的城市，則后文就需要選擇

題意。

19、[Cll

A^Although

B、Since

23、[C5]

A、to

into

C、over

D、by

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點解析：介詞by能和動詞pass搭配，意為“經(jīng)過”。

24、[C6]

A、lead

B、connect

C、collect

D^communicate

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：本句中的聯(lián)系副詞Furthermore說明本句是對上一句的進(jìn)一步補充和

信息的增加，由此可推測本句句義為高速公路不僅經(jīng)過風(fēng)景區(qū)和鄉(xiāng)村，通常還“將

龐大的都市中心區(qū)連接起來故正確答案為B。

25、[C7]

A、when

B、for

D、that

備此語法功能。

27、[C9]

A、unless

B、if

C、as

D、since

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

28、[C10]

A^relatively

B、regularly

C、respectively

D^reasonably

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點解析：根據(jù)主句中的“older…roads”可推斷此空需要填一個比較意義的副

詞，以構(gòu)成對比關(guān)系，故選項A,relatively"相應(yīng)地，相對地”為正確答案。其他三

詞詞義分別為：regularly”彳j規(guī)律地，定期地“，respectively“各自地”，reasonably4%/

理由地”。

29、[C11]

A、and

less

CNmore

D、or

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：根據(jù)此空前后詞及結(jié)構(gòu)可斷定此空應(yīng)使用比較級，故可排除A和

Do另外根據(jù)上下文可推測此空應(yīng)為less,因為moreheavilytraveled意為“車輛擁

擠的“公路，與常識不符。

30、[C12]

B、Several

C、Lots

D、Some

B、cliffs

C、roads

D、paths

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：根據(jù)上文的slopes和下文的hillsides就可以斷定這里需要一個表示路

況不好的詞，選項A,rocks意義不符，故只有B,cliffs'、懸崖”為正確答案。

32、[C14]

A、lying

B、laying

C、laid

D、lied

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點解析：根據(jù)題目和選項可斷定此空應(yīng)為（owns的后置定語，由此可猜測句義

為“位于深谷中的城鎮(zhèn)”，“位于"lie是不及物動詞，不能以過去分詞的形式出現(xiàn)做名

詞的后置修飾語，故正確答案為lie的現(xiàn)在分詞形式lying。

33、[C15]

A^there

B、when

C、which

D^where

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點解析：定語從句修飾places用where來引導(dǎo)。
