）.

問題1選項

A.imminent

B.momentous

C.transient

D.prospective

【答案】A

【解析】考查形容詞詞義辨析。imminent“即將發(fā)生的；迫近的”；momentous“重要的；重大的”；transient“短暫的；路過的”；prospective“未來的；預(yù)期的”。句意：英格蘭南部的暴雨意味著即將有洪水發(fā)生。選項A符合題意。

2.問答題

The(A)fantasticachievementsofmoderntechnologyandthespeed(B)withwhichscientificdiscoveriesare(C)translatedintotechnologicalapplications(D)attesttothetriumphofhumanefforts.

【答案】B；“with”改為“at”。

【解析】考查固定搭配。句意：現(xiàn)代技術(shù)的驚人成就和科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)化為技術(shù)應(yīng)用的速度證明了人類努力的勝利。句中“withwhich”引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾先行詞“speed”，因為有固定搭配“atthespeed”表示“以……的速度”，所以將B項的介詞“with”改為“at”。

4.單選題

）inRwandathatclaimedthelivesofmorethan800,000people.

問題1選項

A.genocide

B.immigration

C.discrimination

D.election

【答案】A

【解析】考查名詞詞義辨析。genocide“種族滅絕，種族屠殺”；immigration“移民”；discrimination“歧視，區(qū)別”；election“選舉；當(dāng)選”。句意：聯(lián)合國安理會于1995年建立了盧旺達(dá)國際刑事法庭，來審判1994年導(dǎo)致八十多萬人死亡的盧旺達(dá)大屠殺中被指控的兇手。選項A符合題意。

5.單選題

Theactivists’energeticworkintheserviceofbothwomansuffrageandthetemperancemovementinthelatenineteenthcentury______theassertionthatthetwomovementswereinimical.

問題1選項

A.diffuses

B.undermines

C.supports

D.underscores

【答案】B

【解析】考查動詞辨析。A項diffuse“擴(kuò)散，傳播”，B項undermine“逐漸削弱（信心、權(quán)威等），漸漸破壞”，C項support“支持，幫助，支撐”，D項underscore“強(qiáng)調(diào)，劃線于……下”。根據(jù)句子可知，句子缺少一個謂語動詞，由Theactivists’energeticworkintheserviceofbothwomansuffrageandthetemperancemovement（積極分子為婦女選舉權(quán)和禁酒運動所做的積極工作）和theassertionthatthetwomovementswereinimical（這兩個運動是敵對的斷言）可判斷，這兩者的關(guān)系是“削弱”，B項符合。句意：19世紀(jì)晚期，積極分子為婦女選舉權(quán)和禁酒運動所做的積極工作削弱了這兩個運動是敵對的論斷。因此，該題選擇B項。

6.單選題

（

）wecontinuetoworkhard,wecanfinishthetaskaheadofschedule.

問題1選項

A.Assoonas

B.Asfaras

C.Solongas

D.Sofaras

【答案】C

【解析】考察固定搭配。assoonas一…就；asfaras至于；sofaras到目前為止；solongas“只要”，句意：我們只要繼續(xù)努力工作，就能在計劃之前完成工作。選項C符合句意。

7.單選題

Indeed,almosteveryscientistnowfindsitisimpossibletoreadalltheworksrelevanttohisownsubject,______extensivelyoutsideofit.

問題1選項

A.muchmoretoread

B.muchlesstoread

C.muchlessreading

D.stillmorereading

【答案】B

【解析】【選項釋義】

A.muchmoretoread要讀得更多

B.muchlesstoread更不用說去讀

C.muchlessreading更不用說讀D.stillmorereading仍然更多的閱讀

【考查點】比較級的用法。

【解題思路】句子中謂語動詞find的真正賓語是toread…，所以比較成分中同樣要用to的不定式；而muchless為常見用法，表示“更不用說”，符合句子意思。故該題選擇B項。

【干擾項排除】

A選項不符合句子意思，與主句語意相矛盾；

C、D選項中的reading和主句中賓語成分結(jié)構(gòu)不對等。

【句意】事實上，幾乎每一位科學(xué)家現(xiàn)在都發(fā)現(xiàn)，要讀完與自己學(xué)科相關(guān)的所有著作是不可能的，更不用說廣泛閱讀學(xué)科之外的著作了。

問題1選項

A.witheyesopento

B.ingoodeyesat

C.withaneyeto

D.byaneyeat

【答案】C

【解析】詞組辨析。withaneyeto“著眼于，指望著”為固定搭配。沒有A、B和D項的搭配，可排除。句意：五年前，那對夫婦買下這所房子，希望能很快從中獲利。選項C符合題意。

【答案】第1題:C

第2題:B

第3題:A

第4題:D

【解析】1.【試題答案】C

【試題解析】推理判斷題。由題干可以定位到文章第一段最后一句Inveryfewthingscanwebesureoffuturesalability,andinasocietywherepeoplearefreetostudywhattheywant,andworkwheretheywant,andinvestastheywant,thereisnowaytokeepsupplyanddemandinlaborinperfectaccord.（在一個人們可以自由學(xué)習(xí)他們想要的東西、在他們想要的地方工作、在他們想要的地方投資的社會里，我們不可能使勞動力的供求完全一致）可知作者沒有特地支持哪一種教育，而是支持他們自由地學(xué)習(xí)。C選項“自由的教育”，符合文章內(nèi)容，C選項正確。A選項“教授一些實用的技能，這些技能可以在當(dāng)前的就業(yè)市場上得到銷售”，作者在文中寫到，不確定哪些技能值得推銷，可排除A選項。B選項“隨時代變化的靈活課程”，文章沒有提到此內(nèi)容，可排除。D選項“保持勞動力市場供求平衡”，文章提到并不能做到勞動力供求一致，D選項可排除。因此C選項正確。

2.【試題答案】B

【試題解析】推理判斷題。由題干可以定位到文中第一段Homeconstructionskillsareanotherexampleofvaryingsalability,asthejobmarketfluctuates（隨著就業(yè)市場的波動，住房建造技能的變化是銷售能力變化的另一個例子）。選項B“不規(guī)則的變化”，文章所說，就業(yè)市場的波動，可以理解為不規(guī)則的變化，選項B正確。選項A“保持穩(wěn)定”，不符合文章的內(nèi)容，可排除。選項C“依照成法”，不符合文章內(nèi)容，可排除。D選項“日就衰敗”，不符合文章內(nèi)容，可排除。因此B選項正確。

3.【試題答案】A

【試題解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)題干可以定位到文章第二段第三句Butifthoseskillsweremorethansalable,ifstudygavethemabetterunderstandingoftheworldaroundthemandgreateradaptabilityinachangingworld,theyhavenotbeencheated.Theywillfindsomekindofjobsoonenough（但如果這些技能很受歡迎，如果學(xué)習(xí)能讓他們更好地了解周圍的世界，并能更好地適應(yīng)不斷變化的世界，那么他們就沒有受騙。他們很快就會找到工作的）。由此句可推測，那些擁有自學(xué)能力的人，可以在高失業(yè)率下找到工作。A選項“有自學(xué)能力的人”，符合文章內(nèi)容，A選項正確。B選項“建筑工人”，文章沒有提到此內(nèi)容，B選項排除。C選項“汽車修理工”，文章沒有提到這個內(nèi)容，可排除。D選項“一個有相當(dāng)多的銷售技巧的人”，一所完全致力于銷售技能的學(xué)校，尤其是在高失業(yè)率的時候，就是把男女送進(jìn)虎穴，可排除D選項。因此A選項正確。

4.【試題答案】D

【試題解析】細(xì)節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)題干可以定位到文章第二段最后一句Peoplewhohavelearnedhowtolearncanlearnoutsideofschool.Thatiswheremostofushavelearnedtodowhatwedo,notinschool.Learningtolearnisoneofthehighestliberalskills.（學(xué)會了如何學(xué)習(xí)的人可以在校外學(xué)習(xí)。那是我們大多數(shù)人學(xué)會做我們所做的事情的地方，而不是在學(xué)校。學(xué)會學(xué)習(xí)是最高的自由技能之一）。由此句可推測，要學(xué)會如何學(xué)習(xí)，關(guān)注適應(yīng)變化的能力。D選項“關(guān)注適應(yīng)變化的能力”，符合文章內(nèi)容，因此D選項正確。A選項“預(yù)測技能在未來就業(yè)市場的銷售能力”，銷售能力只是有限的技能，A選項排除。B選項“把當(dāng)前的就業(yè)市場也考慮進(jìn)去”，文章沒有提到這個內(nèi)容，可排除。C選項“考慮什么技能是可以銷售的”，文章沒有提到這個內(nèi)容，可排除C選項。因此D選項正確。

10.單選題

Mary（）myletter;otherwiseshewouldhaverepliedbeforenow.

問題1選項

A.hasreceived

B.oughttohavereceived

C.couldn'thavereceived

D.shouldhavereceived

【答案】C

【解析】辨析題。句意：Mary不可能收到了我的信,

否則她早就回復(fù)我了。只有選項C符合句意。

11.單選題

Althoughtherehasbeenagreatdealofconstructionattheuniversityinthelastfewyears,butthecampusstillfeelsfairlyopenanduncluttered.

問題1選項

A.therehasbeen

B.attheuniversityinthelast

C.butthe

D.feelsfairlyopenanduncluttered

E.沒有問題

【答案】C

【解析】連詞多余。去掉but。句子中已經(jīng)有了從屬連詞although，故并列連詞but多余。

12.填空題

Inthe8thcenturygigakufellintodisfavorbecauseitsfrivolous(愚蠢的)character________theJapaneserulersoftheperiod.(please)

【答案】displeased

【解析】【考查點】動詞。

【解題思路】because引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，橫線處為謂語動詞。根據(jù)時間8thcentury，可知句子時態(tài)為一般過去時。這里指的是伎樂愚蠢可笑的特點讓統(tǒng)治者_(dá)_____，因此伎樂不受歡迎，displease的意思為“使惱怒，使生氣，使不悅”，符合語境，其過去式為displeased。

【句意】在8世紀(jì)，伎樂因其愚蠢可笑的特點，當(dāng)時的日本統(tǒng)治者聽了不悅，因此不受歡迎。

13.單選題

Theartisthasmadea()ofcombiningthefirst-ratephotographyanddesignwithadvancedtechnologyineverypieceofworkheproduces.

問題1選項

A.discipline

B.principle

C.proposal

D.principal

【答案】A

【解析】discipline學(xué)科，紀(jì)律，訓(xùn)練，懲罰；principle原則，原理；proposal建議，提議；principal首長，校長。句意：這位藝術(shù)家在他的每一件作品中都把一流的攝影和設(shè)計與先進(jìn)的技術(shù)結(jié)合起來。選項A符合句意。

14.單選題

________theythinkitwillcometoanendthroughthehandsofGod,oranaturaldisasterorapoliticalevent,whateverthereason,nearly15percentofpeopleworldwidethinktheendoftheworldiscoming,accordingtoanewpoll.

問題1選項

A.Either

B.Whether

C.Neither

D.If

【答案】A

【解析】考查固定搭配。句意：一項最新調(diào)查顯示，全世界近15%的人認(rèn)為世界末日即將來臨。要么是通過上帝之手，要么是天災(zāi)或者政治事件。根據(jù)題干中…or…可知空格處應(yīng)填寫與之搭配的詞語，只有either…or…符合要求。因此A選項符合題意。

2.Anycriticalspeechandactivitywillintensifyaggressivestudent’sangerandstiffenhisresistance.

5.Onceanaggressivestudentiswillingtosaysorrywithoutinstruction,itwillhelpsoothothers’hurtfeelingandavoidfutureconflicts.

【解析】1.原文句意是：事件結(jié)束后，與打架的雙方學(xué)生見面，讓他們告訴你發(fā)生了什么，幫助他們化解相互之間的矛盾，同時還要通知家長。通過分析原文句子，該句的意思是兩層：一是在打架后和學(xué)生談話并了解情況，二是通知家長。故該句子可以改寫為Youneedtochatwithcombatantsengagedinthefightsoonafterwards,toknowthedetaileddescriptionofincidentsandhelptoreconcilethebothside,andinformtheirparents（你需要和打架同學(xué)交談，了解事件的詳情，幫助調(diào)解雙方，并告知他們的父母）。

2.原文句意是：任何這些行為都可能加劇他的憤怒和加強(qiáng)他的抵抗。根據(jù)原文可知原句中的thoseactions指的是上文所提到的行為，上文提到Evenifheisyellingatyou,staycalm.（即使他對你大喊大叫，你也要保持冷靜）和Avoidcrossingyourarms,pointingafingerormakingthreats（避免交叉雙臂，用手指或威脅），由此可知，thoseactions指的是言語和動作上的行為，所以該句可以擴(kuò)充改寫為Anycriticalspeechandactivitywillintensifyaggressivestudent’sangerandstiffenhisresistance（任何批評性的言論和活動都會加劇好斗學(xué)生的憤怒，加強(qiáng)他們的反抗）。

3.原文中這個詞語的意思是“懲罰地”；整個句子的意思是：雖然他可能期望你的反應(yīng)是懲罰性的，但讓他驚訝的是你的反應(yīng)是支持的。這里可以把punitively副詞形式改寫為非謂語動詞形式involvingpunishment（設(shè)計懲罰）。

4.原文句意是：用平靜的聲音告訴他，你理解他為什么難過，但強(qiáng)調(diào)他必須用語言來表達(dá)憤怒，而不是用手。原文的clam（冷靜的）可以改為副詞，即calmly（冷靜地）；anger（憤怒）可以換一種說法，即intenseemotion（強(qiáng)烈的感情）；那么整個句子就是Speakingtohimcalmlytotellyourunderstandingabouthisupset,youstressthatheshouldlearntoexpressintenseemotionwithwordsratherthanwithfightingways（平靜地和他說話，告訴他你理解他的難過，強(qiáng)調(diào)他應(yīng)該學(xué)會用語言而不是用爭斗的方式表達(dá)強(qiáng)烈的情感）。

5.原文句意是：如果他愿意這樣做，這將有助于安撫受傷的感情，避免未來的沖突。這個句子我們要理解原句中that所指代的內(nèi)容；原文最后一段第一句提到y(tǒng)oudowanttostronglyencouragehimtomakeamendswiththestudenthehit.（你確實想要強(qiáng)烈鼓勵他向他打過的學(xué)生賠罪），由此可知，that所指代的內(nèi)容就是鼓勵學(xué)生道歉；那么這個句子可以解釋為Onceanaggressivestudentiswillingtosaysorrywithoutinstruction,itwillhelpsoothothers’hurtfeelingandavoidfutureconflicts（一旦一個好斗的學(xué)生愿意在沒有得到指導(dǎo)的情況下說對不起，這將有助于緩解他人受到的傷害，避免未來的沖突）。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:A

第3題:D

第4題:C

第5題:A

【解析】1.細(xì)節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“下列哪些陳述是USPS受到指責(zé)的正確原因？”文章第二段提到報紙頭條嘆息USPS在郵政上幫倒忙并呼吁私有化（Newspaperheadlinebemoanthe“PostalDisservice”andcryforprivatization），由此可知選項A是其中之一，排除；第二段提到俄克拉荷馬州的立法者通過了一項決議，決定改變郵政服務(wù)的免稅狀態(tài)（Oklahomalegislatorshavepassedaresolutionchallengingtheservice’stax-exemptstatus），由此可知選項B是受指責(zé)的原因之一；第二段倒數(shù)第二句話提到USPS投資的全球化優(yōu)先郵件和全球包裹鏈公司的失敗可知選項C是受指責(zé)的原因之一。綜上，選項D“全部都是”符合題意。

2.細(xì)節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“根據(jù)文章，下列哪個陳述是不正確的？”文章第一段前兩句提到自從30年前最后一次實質(zhì)性的改革以來，美國郵政服務(wù)通常都是盈利的：其中一個原因是政府強(qiáng)制的壟斷；另一個原因是規(guī)模（Sinceitwaslastsubstantiallyreformed30yearsago,theU.S.PostalServicehasusuallyturnedaprofit:itsgovernment-mandatedmonopolyisonereason.Butsizeisanother.），因此選項B與D表述是正確的，排除；文章第一段提到“這種壟斷有很多額外的好處。郵遞員可以銷售聯(lián)邦不利，而且不需要支付停車費。這項服務(wù)不需要支付銷售或者資產(chǎn)稅，也不需要為其有車支付許可證費用”（Thismonopolyhasplentyofaddedbonuses.Lettercarriersreceivefederalbenefitsanddon’thavetopayparkingtickets.Theservicepaysnosalesorpropertytaxes,nolicensefeesforitsmailtrucks.），由此可知選項C“避稅是USPS增加利潤的另一種方式”表述正確。綜上，選項A符合題意。

3.細(xì)節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“USPS在當(dāng)今數(shù)字世界中生存的真正機(jī)會是……”。文章第五段第一句話提到“除非進(jìn)行徹底的改革，否則美國郵政服務(wù)的日子可能快到頭了”（Unlessitundergoesradicalreformsoon,theU.S.PostalService'sdaysareprobablynumbered），由此可知選項D“徹底的改變”符合題意。

4.細(xì)節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“在作者看來，USPS與FedEx的聯(lián)合真正受惠者是……”。文章第四段第二句話提到“除了真正實現(xiàn)至某人郵箱‘最后一英里’，聯(lián)邦快遞公司可以通過在郵局大廳設(shè)立了投遞箱來合理安排”，由此可知真正受惠的是FedEx公司，因此選項C符合題意。

5.詞義題。題目問的是“文章最后一段languish這個單詞的意思是什么？”該詞出現(xiàn)在句子Ashearguedforsupportofthepostalreformbillthathaslanguishedincommitteeformanyyears,theUSPSveteranfellbackonasentimentalplea，根據(jù)句子中support與plea可以排除選項B與C；suggest前要有執(zhí)行主語，顯然將其代入句子中缺少執(zhí)行主語，因此只有選項A符合題意。

21.翻譯題

改革開放以來，中國找到了一條適合自己國情的促進(jìn)和發(fā)展人權(quán)的道路。中國是一個歷史悠久、人口眾多、資源和財富相對短缺的東方發(fā)展中國家。在這樣一個國家促進(jìn)人權(quán)，既不能照搬西方發(fā)達(dá)國家的人權(quán)發(fā)展模式，也不能因襲其他發(fā)展中國家的做法，只能從中國的國情出發(fā)，探索具有自身特點的發(fā)展道路。改革開放以后，中國在總結(jié)歷史經(jīng)驗和教訓(xùn)的基礎(chǔ)上，找到了一條真正符合中國國情的促進(jìn)人權(quán)發(fā)展的道路。這就是：將生存權(quán)和發(fā)展權(quán)放在首位，在改革、發(fā)展、穩(wěn)定的條件下，全面推進(jìn)人權(quán)。這條道路的特點是：在發(fā)展人權(quán)的基本方向上，堅持發(fā)展生產(chǎn)力和共同富裕的原則，立足于改善全國人民的生活和促進(jìn)全國人民人權(quán)的發(fā)展。在促進(jìn)人權(quán)的輕重緩急上，強(qiáng)調(diào)生存權(quán)、發(fā)展權(quán)的首要地位，同時兼顧公民的政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)、社會、文化權(quán)利和個人、集體權(quán)利的全面發(fā)展；在促進(jìn)和保障人權(quán)的方式上，強(qiáng)調(diào)穩(wěn)定是前提，發(fā)展是關(guān)鍵，改革是動力，法制是保障。20多年來，由于中國堅持了這條正確的發(fā)展道路，不僅使全國人民的生活狀況和精神風(fēng)貌大為改觀，而且形成了一整套比較完備的保障人民民主權(quán)利的政治制度和法律體系，從而使人權(quán)建設(shè)在制度化、法律化的軌道上取得了長足的進(jìn)展，人權(quán)狀況呈現(xiàn)出不斷改善的良好態(tài)勢。
