C、Bodylanguagediffersfromculturetoculture.

D^Ifyouareatinterviews,trytokeepthemstill.

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】本段講的是身體姿勢。填充句后一個句子提到"this"會使呼吸更加

困難，this顯然指的是一種不太好的身體姿勢，因此本題答案為A。

【閱讀判斷】FiveneighborsatacentralMissouriretirementcommunitywhoareall

centenarians（百歲老人）getaskedallthetime：”Howdidyoulivetobe100?"Q:The

fivecentenariansliveinaveryfriendlycommunity.

A、True

B、False

C^NotGiven

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】答案選Co題目說的是"這五位百歲老人生活在一個非常友好的社

區”，文章開頭部分提到了"community（社區）”，但該句并沒有說這五位百歲老人

生活的社區是否是一個友好的社區，因此判斷問題句的信息在文章中沒有提到。

第15題【單選題】

【正確答案】B

【答案解析】本段文字講的是：受到工業污染的土壤含有重金屬，而重金屬很穩

定不容易降解，其中的某些微量重金屬能使人致癌或中毒。可以看出其中心內容

是：受污染土地的潛在危險，選擇B。

C、Addingirontopatchesofoceancanmakeplanktonbloomtemporarily.

D^Asplanktondieandsettleontheoceanfloor,theircarbonissupposedly

lockedupintheseabed.

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】這個問題可以根據引號來作答，因為空格后面有"says"這個詞，它

預示著所填入的句子應該是帶引號的。A的意思是：這些是比較新的也是比較好

的模型。

第17題【單選題】

numberofpeoplelivingalone.

C>Itseemsthatmanygrown-upstodayarerealizingthatchildhooddream.

D^MoreandmoreAmericansarelivingalone.

"婦女有好的工作，增加了獨身的人數"與前句內容正好呼應。

第18題【單選題】

Itcontributedtoourlives.

A、save

B^saving

C>havesaved

D、saved

【答案解析】contributeto中的to是介詞，所以空格中要用動名詞的形式。

contender.Q:OneofHillary'scampaignpromisesistoreformthenation'shealthcare

system.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

9

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】答案選C。問題句說"Hilary的一個競選承諾是改革國家的醫療制度」

而本段只是說"女人做教育和醫療方面的工作有優勢"，沒有說Hillary的一個競選

承諾式改革國家的醫療制度，因此問題句的信息在文章中沒有被提到。

A、shutdown

B^doneaway

C、goneoff

D^calledoff

【正確答案】D

【答案解析】本題考查詞義辨析。calloff：取消，符合句意。shutdown：關閉（工

廠）；（工廠）停工，關閉。doaway常與with搭配，構成doawaywith。gooff：

爆炸，（鬧鈴）響。

A^KillingPowerofAncientVolcanicEruptions

B^AccountingfortheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

11

C、CalculationoftheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

D、AMassExtinction

【正確答案】c

【答案解析】本段第一句話是說:Wignallcalculatedthe"killingefficiency"forthese

volcanoes...；Wignall計算了這些火山的"滅絕效率"..；其中killingefficiency與

killingPower意思差不多，屬于同義詞轉換，因此選擇B或C,但是accountfor意

思是：（在數量方面）占；說明（原因等）不符合句意，因此不選擇B。

髓）tothebrain,andbackdownagain.

C、Thefirstmessageisthewarningsignal.

12

D、Theothermessagemovesataspeedofonlyonemeterasecond.

【正確答案】B

【答案解析】第一句講的是疼痛的感覺是由兩種信號signals組成的，所以緊接

著就提到兩種信號的傳播路線。B項恰恰照應了首句意思。

accordingtothepassage?

A、Unawarenessofenergycycles.

B、Familiarmonologues.

C、Achangeinafamilymember'senergycycle.

D^Attemptstocontroltheenergycycleofotherfamilymembers.

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】本題的關鍵是看懂本段的最后一句(即："Muchfamilyquarrellingends

whenhusbandsandwivesrealizewhattheseenergycyclesmean,andwhichcycle

eachmemberofthefamilyhas.同時聯系本段的第四句和第五句(即：Z/Forsome

peoplethepeakcomesduringthemorning.Forothersitcomesintheafternoonor

evening.〃)的意思。該句的直接意思是〃如果丈夫和妻子能明白能量周期是怎么

14

回事，以及家庭每個成員有什么樣的周期，很多家庭爭吵就會停止。”也就是說，

家庭爭吵的發生是因為丈夫和妻子不了解能量周期是怎么回事，更談不上了解每

個家庭成員有什么樣的能量周期了。因此A項：Unawarenessofenergycycles（不

知道能量周期）應是正確答案。
