D.women

【答案】第1題:C

第2題:D

第3題:A

第4題:B

第5題:D

【解析】1.根據第三段的倒數第二句“AndIbelievethat,inpractice,mostwomenwouldprefersimplefairnesstoeconomicequality.”我認為，實際上大多數女性更喜歡簡單的公平，而不是經濟上的平等。選項C符合原文。

2.根據第二段的最后一句“Buttheyarenottrulyrepresentativeoftheaverageworkingwoman,saddledwithadoubleburdenasshetriestobalanceherjobwithlifeasamotherandhomemaker.”但她們并不能真正代表普通職業女性，在努力平衡工作與母親和家庭生活的過程中，她們背負著雙重負擔。選項D符合原文。

3.第五段的內容主要是講共同體意識也是商業倫理思想者提倡的所謂的“女性”價值之一。它與只著眼于金錢，而不考慮人格和文化特征的全球經濟模式不同。根據第六段提到的，由于未來的商業社會要求采取整體性思維和更具同情心，而女性在這樣的環境中更有發展，所以選項A符合原文。

4.“mug'sgame”指費力不討好的事。這里指商業世界面臨的挑戰已經需要一個全面的視角。說明男性在經濟全球化中不太可能成功。選項B符合原文。

5.根據最后一段的第一句“mostofthefinancialsector'sinnovativethinkingonsociallyresponsiveinvestinghascomefromwomen.”財政部門大多數對社會負責的投資具有創新思維的建議來自女性。說明作者認為女性在未來社會中的地位將會更加舉足輕重。選項D正確。

2.單選題

TheUnitedNationsConferenceonDrugAbuse,whichtookplaceearlierthisyearinVienna,wasavery（

）meeting.

問題1選項

A.productive

B.overwhelming

C.compulsory

D.protective

【答案】A

【解析】考察形容詞詞義辨析。productive“多產的，富有成效的”；overwhelming“壓倒性的”；compulsory“強制的”；protective“保護的”。句意：今年早些時候聯合國在維也納召開的濫用藥品大會取得了相當大的成果。選項A符合題意。

3.單選題

______thedoorthansomebodystartedknockingonit.

問題1選項

A.Ihadclosednosooner

B.Ihadnosoonerclosed

C.NosoonerhaveIclosed

D.NosoonerIclosed

【答案】B

【解析】考查時間狀語從句。句意：我剛關上門，就有人開始敲門。nosooner…than是固定搭配，意為“一……就……”，引導時間狀語從句，主句用過去完成時，than后面的從句用一般過去時，基本用法為：主語+hadnosoonerdonesth.than+主語+did。因此B選項正確。

第3題:C

第4題:A

第5題:D

【解析】1.【選項釋義】

Theauthor’spresentationofAtlantans’car-dependenceismeant____.作者對亞特蘭大人對汽車的依賴性的描述本意是____。

A.tobeironicA.諷刺的

B.topokefuntothemB.為了取笑他們

C.tobefairC.公平的

D.tomakeitnotoriousD.為了讓它臭名昭著

【答案】A

【考查點】推理判斷題。

【解題思路】根據題干信息可定位到第一段第二句“出于感情亞特蘭大人給他們的汽車起名字；通過比較超速罰單，他們小心地守住任何可以停車的小巷。（Atlantanssentimentallygivetheircarsnames;comparespeedingticketsandjealouslyguardanyside-streetwhereitispossibletopark.）”根據作者用sentimentally（多情地）和jealously（妒忌地；猜疑地）兩詞可以看出作者對亞特蘭大人對汽車依賴的描述是諷刺的。因此選A。

【干擾項排除】

B、C、D選項曲解作者意思，屬于曲解原文。

2.【選項釋義】

Whichofthefollowingisnotpartofthe“anti-sprawlmovement”asplannedbyGovernorRoyBarnes?以下哪項不是羅伊?巴恩斯州長所計劃的“反蔓延運動”的一部分？

A.Theconstructionofacommuterraillink.A.通勤鐵路的建造。

B.Hissuccessinre-electioninNovember.B.他在11月成功連任。

C.Theinitiationofshuttlebustransit.C.啟動穿梭巴士過境。

D.Theallocationofmoneytowidenroads.D.用于拓寬道路的撥款。

【答案】B

【考查點】事實細節題。

【解題思路】根據題干信息可定位到倒數第三段“這項計劃專門撥款拓寬道路（Theplanearmarksmoneytowidenroads）；有電動穿梭巴士接送游客穿梭于巴克頭優雅的別墅之間（tohaveanelectricshuttlebusshuttletouristsamongtheelegantvillasofBuckhead）；以及建立一條亞特蘭大和梅肯之間的通勤鐵路（createacommuterraillink）”。由此可知A、C、D選項均有提及，B選項沒有提及，因此選B。

【干擾項排除】

A、C、D選項均是計劃的一部分，屬于反向干擾。

3.【選項釋義】

WhichofthefollowingisNOTmentionedinthetext?文中沒有提到下列哪項？

A.ThefederalhighwayfundswerelostundertheCleanAirAct.A.聯邦公路基金因《清潔空氣法》而損失。

B.Thecountygovernmentsshouldbecooperativeontrafficmatters.B.縣政府應該在交通問題上合作。

C.Atlantansmustabandonbusesandtrainsandbuildmorehighways.C.亞特蘭大人必須放棄公共汽車和火車，建造更多的高速公路。

D.Atlantaleavesabadimpressiononvisitorsintermsofitstraffics.D.亞特蘭大的交通給游客留下了不好的印象。

【答案】C

【考查點】事實細節題。

【解題思路】文中第一段“1998年，13個大都會縣失去了聯邦公路基金，因為它們的空氣污染水平違反了《清潔空氣法》。（In1998,13metrocountieslostfederalhighwayfundsbecausetheirair-pollutionlevelsviolatedtheCleanAirAct.）”因此選項A提到了；文中第三段“為了贏回因《清潔空氣法》而損失的聯邦公路資金，他成立了佐治亞州區域運輸局（GRTA），一個由15名成員組成的委員會，有權讓縣政府、市政府和10個縣的亞特蘭大區域委員會在運輸計劃上進行合作（thecityandtheten-countyAtlantaRegionalCommissioncooperateontransportplans），不管他們喜歡與否。”由此可知縣政府在交通上合作，因此B選項提到了；文中第二段最后“鐵路現在服務于市中心和機場，但其他服務不多；公共汽車站通常靠近看不見的電線桿，沒有顯示哪輛公共汽車可能在那里停，或者什么時候停。”可知亞特蘭大這些服務于公眾的交通并不完善，由此推斷會給游客留下不好印象。因此D選項可以推出。C選項文中沒有提及。因此選C。

【干擾項排除】

A、B、D選項都提到了，C選項沒有提及。A、B、D選項屬于反向干擾。

4.【選項釋義】

ItcanbelearntfromthetextthatGeorgia’sGovernorRoyBarnes____.從文中可以得知，喬治亞州州長羅伊?巴恩斯____。

A.isintyrannouscontroloftheGRTAboardA.對GRTA董事會有著專橫的控制

B.cutsanimpressivenonconformistimageB.給人留下了不墨守成規的印象

C.isboundtowinthere-electioncomingupC.一定會贏得即將到來的連任

D.channelspartoffundstohispersonalassetsD.將部分資金用于個人資產

【答案】A

【考查點】推理判斷題。

【解題思路】根據題干信息可定位到最后一段“由于他可以任命和解雇GRTA的成員，這可能就是故事的結局。巴恩斯先生總是想怎么做就怎么做（Mr.Barneshasatendencytodoashewants）。他在交通問題上的傲慢也可能使他失去選票。”由此可知，巴恩斯先生可以隨意任命解雇成員，并且想怎么做就怎么做，由此可推斷他對GRTA有專橫的控制。因此選A。

【干擾項排除】

B選項“給人留下了不墨守成規的印象”，文中沒有體現，該選項屬于無中生有；

C選項“一定會贏得即將到來的連任”，文中提到“他在交通問題上的傲慢也可能使他失去選票。”因此他不一定能連任，該選項與原文意思相反，屬于反向干擾；

D選項“將部分資金用于個人資產”，文中沒有提及，該選項屬于無中生有。

5.【選項釋義】

Ineyesofthewriter,thebestsolutiontothetrafficprobleminAtlantaseemstoliein____.在作者看來，解決亞特蘭大交通問題的最好辦法似乎在于____。

A.theenforcementoftrafficregulationsA.執行交通規則

B.thechallengetoGovernorBarnes’sarroganceB.挑戰巴恩斯州長的傲慢

C.theincreaseofcommuterandcartaxesC.提高通勤稅和汽車稅

D.theimprovementofitspublic-transportsystemsD.改善其公共交通系統

【答案】D

【考查點】推理判斷題。

【解題思路】根據題干信息可定位到第二段“其他處于同樣困境的城市已經重組了高速公路，征收通勤稅和汽車稅，或者擴大了公共交通系統（expandedtheirpublic-transportsystems）。亞特蘭大不喜歡這些東西。公共交通也是一個令人煩惱的話題。亞特蘭大大都會區分為許多縣政府和較小的市政府，發現這樣很難合作。鐵路現在服務于市中心和機場，但其他服務不多；公共汽車站通常靠近看不見的電線桿，沒有顯示哪輛公共汽車可能在那里停，或者什么時候停。”然后文中講亞特蘭大各縣進行交通方面的合作，GRTA撥款修建道路，建立鐵路通勤線。啟動快速公交服務等等，這些都是在改善亞特蘭大的公共交通。因此選D。

【干擾項排除】

A選項“執行交通規則”，文中沒有提及，該選項屬于無中生有；

B選項“挑戰巴恩斯州長的傲慢”，文中沒有提及，該選項屬于無中生有；

C選項“提高通勤稅和汽車稅”，文中提到“其他處于同樣困境的城市已經重組了高速公路，征收通勤稅和汽車稅，或者擴大了公共交通系統”但是根據后文可知，亞特蘭大選擇改善公共交通而不是提高通勤稅和汽車稅，該選項屬于反向干擾。

5.翻譯題

由于對急劇上漲的油價和氣候變化的日益擔心，生物燃料變成了綠色技術革命的先鋒，除了作為替代能源外，還希望它在此過程中減緩全球變暖趨勢。但是，近期的幾項研究表明，生物燃料不但沒有實現其提倡者的良好愿望，相反卻加劇了全球變暖，并還以拯救地球的名義危害著地球。的確，生物燃料在某種程度上減輕了人們對進口石油的依賴，使某些農民綜合企業致富的同時，也給農民創造了就業機會。但是大多數生物燃料遇到的一個基本問題實際上很簡單：將土地用于生產生物燃料所需的作物，導致儲存了大量碳的森林、濕地和草地被毀，這是研究人員一直沒注意到的問題.

6.單選題

Tomdoesn’tthinkthatthe______situationhereisasgoodashishometown’s.

問題1選項

A.economics

B.economic

C.economy

D.economical

【答案】B

【解析】考查形近詞辨析。A選項economics“n.經濟學；國家的經濟狀況”；B選項economic“adj.經濟的，經濟上的；經濟學的”；C選項economy“n.經濟；節約；理財”；D選項economical“經濟的；節約的；合算的”。economic用以指與貿易、工業或財富等有關的“經濟上的”或“有關經濟學方面”的意義，一般用作定語；economical則指與“節約”同義的“經濟”，相當于notwasteful，既可指人也可指物，既可作表語也可作定語。句意：湯姆認為這里的經濟狀況不如家鄉。因此B選項正確。

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:C

第3題:C

第4題:B

第5題:C

【解析】第1題:文章第一二段提到兒童群體雖然不大，但是他們有一定的購買能力；之后引用了一些兒童帶來的花費的數據來進一步說明兒童是個很大的消費群體。最后提到兒童代表著三個市場。從這些可知全文都是在講兒童的消費問題。所以選項B符合題意。

第2題:文章主要探討兒童消費問題。出于很多原因，兒童已經是一個具有很強購買力的消費者。選項C符合題意。

第3題:文章第一段提到孩子們有很多零花錢自己處理，但是他們容易受到電視廣告的影響（Theyareheavilyinfluencedbythehoursoftelevisionadvertisingtheyseeeachweek），說明他們的錢被亂用了，選項C符合題意。

第4題:文章第一段提到雖然兒童的購買力不強，但是他們會受同伴的影響（Althoughtheirindividualpurchasesaresmall，theybuyregularly,oftenresponsetopeerpressure）。選項B符合題意。

第5題:文章最后一段提到商家們認為兒童代表三個市場：currentconsumers,influentialconsumers,andfuturebuyers。孩子們的品牌意識和產品偏好正穩定發展，總有一天會形成購買力。選項C符合題意。

8.單選題

問題1選項

A.declining

B.defining

C.deceiving

D.defending

【答案】B

【解析】考查形容詞辨析。A選項declining“下滑的；衰退的；傾斜的”；B選項defining“最典型的；起決定性作用的”；C選項deceiving“欺騙性的”；D選項defending“防守型的”。句意：把注意力集中在重要事情上的能力是智慧的一個（）特征。根據語境，defining“最典型的”和intelligence“智慧”搭配比較合理。因此B選項正確。

【答案】長期以來，我們首都的一小部分人攫取了政府的利益，而代價卻由人民來承擔。華盛頓欣欣向榮，人民卻沒有分享到財富。政客們興旺發達，工作機會卻越來越少，工廠紛紛倒閉。他們的勝利不是你們的勝利；他們的成功不是你們的成功；當他們在我們的首都歡呼慶祝時，這片土地上無數掙扎的家庭卻沒有什么值得慶祝的。
