問題1選項

A.depress

B.default

C.degrade

D.deteriorate

【答案】C

【解析】考察動詞詞義辨析。degrade“降低，降級，退化”；deteriorate“惡化，變壞”；default“拖欠，不履行義務”；depress“壓抑，使沮喪”。根據句意“科學家對于生物體隨著年齡增長會____是必然結果這種說法表示懷疑”，可知空格處應該填表示“退化”此類意思的詞，degrade強調功能的退化，deteriorate強調身體狀況的惡化，顯然選項C符合題意。

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:A

第3題:A

第4題:D

第5題:C

【解析】1.語義推測題。由題干關鍵詞“Butangerisespeciallyendemictowork”定位到文章第一段“…peoplegetangryatanaverageof10to14timesaday.Butangerisespeciallyendemictowork.Ifyouhaveajob,you’reguaranteedtogetangry.”可知人們平均每天會生氣10到14次。但是生氣在工作中尤其普遍。如果你在工作，你肯定會生氣?？膳袛喑鰬嵟诠ぷ髦惺遣豢杀苊獾模瑫钊烁械讲贿m。故選項B符合題意。

2.語義推測題。由題干關鍵詞“Upwouldhavegonemyhand”定位到文章第二段“Upwouldhavegonemyhand,hadIbeenintheroomandheardthatlastremark.AndIwouldhaverespectfullydisagreed.”，可知如果我當時在房間里，聽到最后兩句話，我也會舉起我的手。并且會尊重性地表達我的反對意見?？膳袛喑鲎髡邥e手表示對這個觀點的贊同。故選項A符合題意。

3.事實細節(jié)題。由題干關鍵詞“Anger-managementexperts...guidelines”定位到文章第四段“Anger-managementexpertsdoofferafewcommon-senseguidelinestominimizework-relatedanger:don’tletitfaster;don’tlookforsnubsinwhatarepurelyinnocentincidents;don’tgetcaughtupinotherpeople’sgripes;ifyoustarttolosecontrol,takeabreak.”，可知憤怒情緒管理專家確實提供了一些常識性的指導方法來抑制工作憤怒：不要太快；不要因為一些平白無故的困難而怠慢工作；不要被別人的抱怨所困擾；如果情緒開始失控，休息一下?？膳袛喑鰬嵟榫w管理專家提出的解決方法包括及時冷靜下來并且尋找解決方法。選項A符合題意。

4.判斷推理題。由題干關鍵詞“ScienceandHealthwithKeytotheScriptures”定位到文章第九段“‘Man(includingwoman)istheoffspring,notofthelowest,butofthehighestqualitiesofMind,’wroteMaryBakerEddy,theauthorofScienceandHealthwithKeytotheScriptures.ThisdivineMind,orGod,isexpressingineachofusthese“highqualities”asourrealnature,respectfulandloving,andrevealingouractualrelationtooneanotherassonsanddaughtersofGod.”，可知瑪麗?貝克?艾迪在書中提到男人（包括女人）不是低等人的后代，都是最具智慧的神的后代。這個神圣的上帝，在我們每個人身上體現(xiàn)出一些高尚的品質，這些品質都是我們的本性——尊敬和愛，并顯示我們作為上帝的兒女彼此之間的真實關系?？膳袛喑鲎髡咴跁邢虢o讀者表達出來的意思是：人類是上帝創(chuàng)造的，具有高尚善良的品質；人的真實本性是像上帝一樣恭敬有禮貌的；我們都是上帝的后代，我們與他人的關系是情同手足，所以沒有理由產生沖突。故選項D符合題意。

5.主旨大意題。根據文章最后一段“So,insteadofbracingforashowdownwithafellowworker,youcanarriveatworkfilledwiththeconvictionthatyouandyourcolleagues,clients,andcustomers,areallinherentlygood-natured—God-natured—theoffspringofatotallylovingcreator.You’recertaintohavehigher-expectations,morecompassion,morepatience.Arealpeacemakerattitude.”，可知你可以滿懷信心地去工作，相信你和你的同事、客戶、顧客都是天性善良的人，都是慈愛的造物主的后代。你肯定會有更高的期望值，更有同情心，更有耐心。會具有一種真正的和平主義者的處事態(tài)度。最后一段為全文的主旨段，可判斷出作者認為我們應該提倡基督教的氛圍，讓每個人都覺得自己是上帝的兒女，人人平等，以減少工作場所的憤怒情緒。故選項C符合題意。

3.翻譯題

問題1選項

A.anannualgrowthratemaintainedofover6%

B.maintainedanannualeconomicgrowthrateofover6%

C.maintainedover6%ofannualeconomicgrowthrate

D.6%ofannualgrowthrateofeconomicsmaintained

【答案】C

【解析】考查句子結構辨析。A選項anannualgrowthratemaintainedofover6%“經濟年均增長保持在6%以上”；B選項maintainedanannualeconomicgrowthrateofover6%“保持年均經濟增長6倍以上”；C選項maintainedover6%ofannualeconomicgrowthrate“經濟增速保持在6%以上”；D選項6%ofannualgrowthrateofeconomicsmaintained“經濟保持年均6%的增長速度”。句意：新加坡只有226平方英里的土地，但它在東南亞國家中擁有重要的地位……，結合句意，可知選項C正確。

5.單選題

問題1選項

A.aheadof

B.backof

C.independentof

D.abreastof

【答案】A

【解析】考查詞組辨析。aheadof“在……之前”；backof“在……后面”；independentof“不受……支配的”；abreastof“保持與……并列”。句意：一些經濟學家擔心，股價……公司盈利，這在一定程度上讓人想起上世紀80年代末日本股市崩盤前的情景。可知前半句應表示“股票價格超過了公司盈利”。因此A選項符合題意。

6.單選題

）frompracticeandinturnservepractice.

問題1選項

A.originate

B.restrain

C.modify

D.reflect

【答案】A

【解析】originatefrom為常用詞組,表示“起源于,來源于”。句意:一切理論都來源于實踐,反過來又為實踐服務。選項A符合句意。

）ineverythingthathedoes.

問題1選項

A.takeshistime

B.makestime

C.keepsgoodtime

D.losestime

【答案】A

【解析】考查詞組辨析。A選項“不慌不忙”；B選項“抽出時間”；C選項“（鐘表）走的準”；D選項“耽誤時間，失去時機”。句意：威廉做事不快，他總是（）做他的事。從前面的句子neverworksrapidly可知，這里答案選A“不慌不忙”，其他選項不符合邏輯。

【解析】（1）考查形容詞詞義辨析。positive“積極的；真實的”；negative“消極的”；mild“溫和的”；slight“輕微的”。空格處前面內容提到“世界上所有事物中，我最不喜歡的就是填表”，并且提到了原因，對填表有恐懼（horror），四個選項中，選項Apositive有“真實的”意思，“真實的恐懼”符合前后文情境，因此符合題意。

（2）考查動詞詞義辨析。attend“參加”；register“注冊”；invite“邀請”；work“工作”。根據空格處后面的關鍵詞eveningcourse“晚間課程”可以知道是“注冊課程”，因此選項B符合題意。

（3）考查固定搭配。involvedoingsth.“涉及做某事”，因此可以排除選項A與B；由前面的“applying”,”booking”等可知此處不需要用完成時，所以選項C符合題意。

（4）考查詞組辨析?？崭裉幩诰渥拥拇笠馐牵含F(xiàn)在幾乎每處都需要提供關于個人生活和習慣的信息，而這些信息跟手頭上的事情沒有什么關系。inhand“手頭上的”，所以選項B符合題意。

（5）考查固定搭配。beofinterestto“對……是有意義的，對……有趣的”。選項D符合題意。

（6）考查同義詞詞義辨析。prospective“未來的，預期的”；coming“即將發(fā)生的”；existing“目前的,現(xiàn)存的”；on-going“正在進行的,繼續(xù)的”。從whenapplyingforajob可知是在“申請工作”，那么面對的是“將來的雇主”，選項A符合題意。

（7）考查should的用法。should常用在以why,how開頭的疑問句中，因此選項C符合題意。

（8）考查動詞詞義辨析。bid“投標，出價”；invite“邀請，招待”；request“要求，請求”；require“要求，命令”。request是有禮貌的要求，而require有種強迫的意味，從后文的demand處可以看出require符合題意。

（9）考查固定搭配。putsth.tosb.“把（觀點、建議）等告訴某人”，選項A符合題意。

（10）考查分詞短語的用法。分詞短語可以相當于一個時間狀語，表示在做某事的過程中，發(fā)生某事或做某事。“面對問題”在文中是被動含義，表示作者是被迫來面對這樣一些不愿意回答的問題，因此，應該用when+過去分詞，選項B符合題意，如果是主動含義，則用現(xiàn)在分詞。

（11）考查動詞詞義辨析。ensure“確?！?，ensuresth,/that；insure“投?！?；assure“保證；擔保”，assuresb.ofsth.或者assuresb.（that）；reassure“使安心”。根據后文Iwas“delicate”可知，此處省略了that，選項C符合題意。

（12）考查固定搭配。contactlenses“隱形眼鏡”，選項A符合題意。

（13）考查動詞詞義辨析。agree“同意”；connect“聯(lián)系”；relate“相關”；apply“申請；使用”,applyto“適用于”?？崭裉幩诰渥拥拇笠馐牵何掖髦[形眼鏡，補著牙齒，但是也許“缺陷”這個詞適用于我的性格。因此選項D符合題意。

（14）考查動詞詞義辨析。decline“下降；婉拒”；deny“否認”；admit“承認”；reject“拒絕”?？崭裉幩诰渥拥拇笠馐牵何沂遣皇菚徊聹y應該承認自己愛賭博，早上起不來呢？選項C符合題意。

（15）考查主謂一致。根據be動詞are可以判斷空格處應該填B，其他選項后面應該使用單數形式。

（16）考查邏輯關系。根據后面的“terrified”這個單詞，可以推斷出在作者眼里，找工作是件糟糕的事情，選項D符合題意。

（17）考查名詞詞義辨析。day“一天”；date“日期”；offer“提議；出價；錄取通知書”。該句講述作者在填寫表格里“教育”這一欄，需要提供具體日期，選項B符合題意。

（18）考查名詞詞義辨析。declaration“宣布，公告，聲明”;witness“證人，目擊者”；publication“出版物，發(fā)表”：announcement“公告，宣告”?？崭裉幩诰渥拥拇笠馐牵罕槐砀竦撞磕切┤绻顚戝e誤聲明嚇到了的我，拼命去回想我之前通過了哪些考試，在哪些公司上過班。選項A符合題意。

（19）考查邏輯連詞。前面提到拼命回想以前的經歷，空格處后提到還是有一年或者兩年的經歷不太確定，兩者是轉折關系，因此選項D符合題意。

（20）考查固定搭配。leaveblank“留空格”，選項C符合題意。
