問題1選項

A.againstthegrain

B.againstthesalt

C.withagrain

D.withasalt

【答案】A

【解析】語法題。根據題意，非暴力的直接行動違背公眾的意見，為了讓自己在自我利益、漠不關心和日常的干擾中引人注目。所以這里是指與公眾的意見相違背。選項C和D可排除。搭配“againstthegrain”的意思為“格格不入，違反意愿”。選項A符合題意。

2.單選題

問題1選項

A.As

B.For

C.While

D.Although

【答案】D

【解析】考查邏輯知識。前半句中“sermonsretainedtheirpreeminence”表示肯定意義，后半句提到“theyaregraduallylosingthatcentralplaces”，可知語氣出現了轉折。因此D選項符合題意。

第20題:D

【解析】1.考查動詞辨析。根據原文可知，這里是說“在找工作或升職的過程中……”選項D最符合語境。apply一般和介詞for連用；do表示“做”；offer表示“提供”，均不符合原文。

2.考查副詞辨析。A選項quickly“快速地”；B選項easily“容易地”；C選項roughly“粗糙地”；D選項decidedly“果斷地”。根據句意“閱讀和理解的能力是關系到成敗的關鍵”，選項A最符合句意。

3.考查上下文語義。A選項good“好的”；B選項curious“好奇的”；C選項poor“貧窮的，匱乏的”；D選項urgent“緊急的”。根據“Yettheunfortunatefact”以及“Mostofusdeveloppoorreading”可知，前后應該是相反的情況，也就是說大多數人都不擅長閱讀。所以選項C正確。

4.考查名詞辨析。A選項training“訓練”；B選項habits“習慣”；C選項situations“狀況”；D選項custom“習俗”。根據句意“我們大多數人在很小的時候就養成了不好的閱讀習慣，并且從來沒有改掉。”選項B符合句意。

5.考查動詞辨析。A選項liein“在于”；B選項combine一般和介詞with搭配；C選項touchin“增改”；D選項involvein“涉及，卷入”。根據句意“其最主要的缺點在于語言本身的實際內容——詞。”選項A符合句意。

6.考查上下文語義。根據句意“單獨來看，單詞本身幾乎沒有意義，只有當串聯成短語、句子和段落時才有意義。”表示幾乎沒有意義用“little”，所以選項C符合句意。

7.考查上下文語義。根據關鍵詞however可知，這里是表示轉折的情況。上文提及單詞本身沒有意義，所以這里想表達“不幸的是，未經訓練的讀者不會閱讀句群。”選項D符合語境。

8.考查動詞辨析。A選項reuse“重復使用”；B選項reread“重讀”；C選項rewrite“重寫”；D選項recite“背誦”。根據原文可知，未經訓練的讀者費勁地一次讀一個單詞，并且經常退回去重讀單詞或段落。選項B符合語境。

9.考查關系詞。根據句意“倒退，也就是回頭看剛讀過的東西的傾向，是閱讀中常見的壞習慣。”填空處缺少的詞引導的是賓語從句并且在從句中做主語成分，只有選項A符合要求。

10.考查詞組辨析。A選項scaledown“按比例減少”；B選項cutdown“削減”；C選項slowdown“減速”；D選項measure“測量”，一般不和介詞down搭配。根據原文可知，這里是在講述另一個降低閱讀速度的壞習慣，選項C符合語境。

11.考查上下文語義。破折號后面的句子是對“vocalization”的解釋，發聲是指一個人在閱讀的時候，口頭上或心里讀出每一個單詞。所以這里應該用one來指代“任何一個人”，選項B正確。

12.考查名詞辨析。A選項accelerator“加速器”；B選項actor“演員，行動者”；C選項amplifier“放大器，擴音器”；D選項observer“觀察者”。which后面引導的非限制性定語從句是對填空處的解釋說明。根據句意“將條子(或簾子)以預定的速度沿書頁向下移動”，再結合上下文可知，這種設備是用來提高閱讀速度的，所以選項A符合語境。

13.考查介詞辨析。根據關鍵詞“faster”可知，這里應該使用比較級；再根據句意“為了‘伸展’讀者的閱讀能力，書中的條子設置得比讀者感到舒服的速度稍快一些。”由此可知，只有選項D符合句意。

14.考查動詞辨析。A選項enable“使能夠”；B選項lead“領導，導致”；C選項make“使得”；D選項indicate“表明”。根據句意“加速器迫使讀者快速閱讀，使逐字閱讀成為不可能。”makesth.impossible“使...成為不可能”，選項C正確。

15.考查名詞辨析。A選項meaning“意義”；B選項comprehension“理解”；C選項gist“主旨，要點”；D選項regression“倒退，復原”。根據原文可知，閱讀速度提高了，相對應犧牲的是對文章的理解，所以選項B符合語境。

16.考查固定句型搭配。notonly…but(also)…為固定句型，意為“不僅…而且…”，這里是說“當你學會閱讀思想和概念時，你不僅會讀得更快，而且你的理解力也會提高。”所以選項A正確。

17.考查代詞辨析。句子的主語是“Manypeople”，所以這里應使用代詞their，所以選項C正確。

18.考查介詞辨析。根據關鍵詞“forinstance”可知，這里是以CharlceAu為例，對作者提出的觀點進行論證。以…為例用介詞“take”，所以選項B正確。

19.考查介詞辨析。根據下文的內容可知，這里表達的是“在訓練之前，CharlceAu的閱讀速度是1分鐘172字”，所以選項D正確。

20.考查動詞辨析。A選項master“精通，掌握”；B選項goover“復習，重溫”；C選項present“贈送，展現”；D選項getthrough“完成，到達”。根據句意“他很高興他能在短時間內讀完更多的閱讀材料。”選項D符合語境。

4.單選題

Theplanthasbeen（

）ofthemoneyitneedsformodernization.

問題1選項

A.deleted

B.extracted

C.deprived

D.convinced

【答案】C

【解析】考查動詞詞義辨析。delete“刪除”；extract“提取；榨取”；deprive“使喪失，剝奪”；convince“說服；使確信，使信服”。句意：該工廠已經喪失其進行現代化所需的資金。選項C符合題意。

【答案】清明節是中國的傳統節日之一。它通常是在陽歷的4月4日、5日或6日。這個節日最初是為了慶祝大自然的復興并且標志著種植季節和其他戶外活動的開始。在這個節日里，人們以跳舞、唱歌、野餐和春游來慶祝它。后來它逐漸演變成紀念祖先的日子。如今，每逢清明節來臨，所有的中國人都會為先人掃墓。掃墓活動通常包括除草、掘土、祭祀、燒紙錢、放鞭炮等。

【答案】因此，大學教授遇到的學生往往是這樣的：除了會在試卷上寫簡要答案之外，從不動筆寫任何東西，不怎么讀書，缺乏基本的數理技能，卻對自己的能力信心滿滿，還拒絕接受任何針對其作業的批評，甚至到了大哭大鬧的地步。

稍加批評，就得施以各種贊美鼓勵來緩和，以防引發對立情緒，或者情緒完全崩潰。

由于時間壓力，越來越多的大學老師自問：“給學生什么樣的成績才能保證他們不抱怨，更糟糕的是，才不會因為作業要求是否清晰而引發紛爭?”

因此，就不得不招進更多不合要求的學生，還不得不留下他們，從而將爭取學業成功的負擔從學生身上轉嫁到老師身上。

如果有時間，教師可以進行單獨輔導。但是學生的整體能力決定了在課堂上能夠嚴格要求他們的程度。

【答案】三分之一的美國醫生年齡在65歲以上，這一比例預計還會上升。隨著嬰兒潮一代的醫生年滿65歲，許多人面臨著越來越大的經濟壓力，因此不愿退休。當然，許多醫生在70多歲以后仍然保持著他們的技能和敏銳的頭腦。但是醫生很難對帕爾登森病、中風和其他衰老疾病免疫。一些專家警告說，保護病人免受那些不應該再執業的人傷害的保障措施太少了。諾克羅斯博士說：“我的猜測是，人們認為有某種故障安全機制可以保護他們免受不稱職的醫生的傷害。然而，實際上是沒有的。”

A.EducationandModernCivilization

B.TheSignificanceofModernEducation

C.EducationalInvestmentandtheProfitItBrings

D.Education:AComparisonbetweenPastandPresent

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:B

第3題:A

第4題:C

第5題:D

【解析】1.根據原文句意：由于深信教育的重要性，現代國家“投資”于學習機構，培養一大批開明的，有可能成為領導的青年男女，以此來獲得“回報”。“invest”和“interest”相對應，所以選項B正確。

2.根據第三段第一句“Itistheidealconditionofthe“equalstart”whichonlyourmostprogressiveformsofmoderneducationtrytoregain.”這是“平等起步”的理想狀態，只有我們最先進的現代教育形式才試圖恢復這種理想狀態。由此可以推斷，作者似乎贊同原始文化中的平等教育傳統，所以選項B符合原文。

3.根據第二段的最后兩句，在我們喜歡稱之為野蠻人的人群中，所有由傳統繼承的知識都為所有人所共享;它被教導給部落的每一個成員，因此在這方面，每個人都是平等地為生活做好準備。由此可知，野蠻人已經達到了“平等起步”的目標，所以選項A正確。

4.根據第三段“...ourowncompulsoryschoolattendancebecamelawinGermanyin1642,inFrancein1806,andinEngland1876,andisstillnon-existentinanumberof“civilized”nations.”德國于1642年將義務教育列入法律條文，法國在1806年，英國是在1876年，但是在一些“文明”國家仍然不存在。由此可知，并非所有的國家都有義務教育，選項C符合原文。

5.結合全文內容可知，本文主要將過去的教育和現代的教育進行對比，指出現代教育的不足之處，選項D最能概括全文，所以正確。
