9、媽”，“爸爸”，因此，應(yīng)選clarity“清晰”。填入其他選項(xiàng)emotion(感 情)，sentiment(多愁善感)，affection(友愛)不合邏輯。答案：A3A.recite Brecognize Cread Drepeat解析：根據(jù)后面的over and over again，應(yīng)選“repeat”。答案：D4A.volume Bnoise Cvoice Dpitch解析：小孩想去動(dòng)物園，便不停地發(fā)出尖叫聲，故選“voice”。A項(xiàng)shrill voice與scream的意思接近。volume(音量)；noise(噪音)；pitch(音調(diào))均不合要求。答案：C5A.close Bshu

11、須接介詞in，意為“居住”；cultivating耕種；reclaiming開墾；只有exploring有探察的意思。答案：D9A.increase Binclude Cadd Denrich解析：add to相當(dāng)于increase增加。其余選項(xiàng)后面都不接to。答案：C10A.later Bfurther Cthen Dsubsequently解析：later on為固定短語，“后來”。答案：A11A.attendant Bkeeper Cmember Daide解析：attendant仆人；keeper可理解為“飼養(yǎng)員”，但是a student keeper容易被誤解為“收留學(xué)生的人”；ai

12、de有“助手”之義。作者一邊上學(xué)，一邊在動(dòng)物園里打工，只能當(dāng)助手。答案：D12A.luckily Bgladly Cnearly Dsuccessfully解析：因?yàn)殄X是在動(dòng)物園打工掙的，選successfully更能體現(xiàn)其含義。答案：D13A.pay Bprovide Callow Dfinance解析：finance my first trip意為“支付我的旅行費(fèi)用”；pay后應(yīng)接介詞for；其他選項(xiàng)的意思相差甚遠(yuǎn)。答案：D14A.normally Bregularly Cusually Doften解析：此句為現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)，選regularly比較貼切。答案：B15A.expecta

13、tions Bsorrows Cexcitement Ddisappointments解析：此句是由though引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句，應(yīng)與主句意思相對(duì)立。選項(xiàng)中，sorrows和disappointments與主句的appeal to相對(duì)立，但sorrows的分量太重。答案：D.閱讀理解What does it mean to say that we live in a world of persuasion?
