【答案】第1題:E

第2題:B

第3題:F

第4題:A

第5題:C

【解析】（1）第一段引出了人們對于未來的擔(dān)心，認(rèn)為老齡化將會帶來各種問題。第三段是對老齡化社會的肯定，認(rèn)為這是文明發(fā)展的結(jié)果。E選項剛好承上啟下。

（2）選項說牛津大學(xué)老齡化研究中心成立各個問題研究組。正好下段提到對myth的揭示。

（3）空前提到了healthservices,故選F。

（4）前面指出研究中心人員提出應(yīng)該給年長的人提供各種培訓(xùn)機會。因此此處選A項(研究表明不同年齡階段的勞動力的融合也有許多好處)合適。

（5）上一段中提出家庭關(guān)系會因為老齡化問題而使親人之間疏遠的擔(dān)心,C中研究中心的倫理學(xué)家對這一問題進行了佐證，年長者對家庭需要貢獻的角色越來越重要，所以這些擔(dān)心都是沒有必要的。

2.單選題

Generally,itisonlywhenanimalsaretrappedthatthey（

）toviolenceinordertoescape.

問題1選項

A.proceed

B.appeal

C.resort

D.incline

【答案】C

【解析】考查動詞詞義辨析。proceed“開始”；appeal“呼吁，請求”；resort“訴諸”；incline“傾向”。句意：通常，動物只有在他們受困想要逃跑的情況下才會采取攻擊行為。選項C符合題意。

3.單選題

Youshould（

）tooneormoreweeklymagazinessuchasTimeorPeople.

問題1選項

A.subscribe

B.order

C.prescribe

D.reclaim

【答案】A

【解析】考查動詞辨析。subscribe訂閱，后接介詞to；order定購，預(yù)定；prescribe開處方；reclaim改造，感化，回收利用；由weeklymagazines可知答案為A。句意：你應(yīng)該訂閱一本或更多的周刊雜志，比如《時代》或《人物》。答案A

4.單選題

Thereisno（）forhardworkandperseveranceofyouwanttosucceed.

問題1選項

A.alteration

B.equivalent

C.alternative

D.substitute

【答案】C

【解析】本題考查了名詞的辨析。alteration“改變；變化”；equivalent“相等的”；alternative“可供選擇的事物”；substitute“代替”，根據(jù)“勤奮和堅持”與“成功”之間的關(guān)系，我們可以知道一般來說“勤奮和堅持”是“成功”的必要條件，所以想要成功，除了“勤奮和堅持”之外就沒有別的選擇符合邏輯，故正確答案為選項C。句意為：你想成功的話，除了勤奮和堅持之外你沒有別的選擇。

5.單選題

Thevastmajorityofpeopleinanygivenculturewill（）totheestablishedstandardsofthatculture.

問題1選項

A.confine

B.conform

C.confront

D.confirm

【答案】B

【解析】考查動詞辨析。A選項confine“限制；禁閉”；B選項conform“符合；遵照；適應(yīng)環(huán)境”；C選項confront“面對；遭遇；比較”；D選項confirm“確認(rèn)；確定；證實”。句意：在任何特定文化中的絕大多數(shù)人都將遵守該文化既定的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。空格處的動詞既要符合句意，又要與to構(gòu)成搭配。因此B項正確。Conformto表示“符合，遵照”。

6.填空題

Tomatoes,whentheywerefirstintroduced,wereconsideredeithermagicalorharmful,dependingonwhichschoolofthoughtyoulistened.Evenwithinlivingmemory,therewasatimewhenvegetableswereconsideredharmfulunless

A

B

C

D

cookedforlong.

【答案】Blistened改為listenedto

【解析】【考查點】固定搭配。

【解題思路】listenedto意思為“聽從”，為固定搭配，這里指的是認(rèn)為西紅柿是怎樣的，就看聽從對西紅柿的哪一種描述。

【句意】西紅柿剛被引進時，人們認(rèn)為它很神奇或者有害，這取決于你聽的是哪個學(xué)派的觀點。即使在現(xiàn)在，人們也有一段時間認(rèn)為蔬菜沒有經(jīng)過長時間的烹飪就是有害的。

【解析】1.根據(jù)題干定位到文章第一段中的Ihavebeenafraidtosleepforthelastfewweeks.Iamsotiredthat,finally,Idosleep,butonlyforafewminutes.譯為：在過去的幾個星期，我一直都害怕入睡。終于我實在是因為太累而入睡了，但是卻也只是瞇了幾分鐘。可知此題應(yīng)選擇F。

2.根據(jù)題干定位到文章第三段“Inherhair,sheworethreesilkribbons,blue,green,andwhite.Theyremindedmeofmychildhood...”譯為：在她的頭發(fā)中有三個絲帶，分別是藍色、綠色和白色。這讓我想起了童年的
