50.refreshed作者在同班同學之間做了一個關于午后小睡的調(diào)查。文章介紹了調(diào)查結果。41.考查副詞。該空做時間狀語，故要填副詞recently。42.考查動名詞。句意：最近，我做了一個關于午后小睡的調(diào)查。該空做介詞on的賓語，故填動名詞taking。43.考查冠詞。forawhile意為“一會兒”。44.考查固定句式。prefertodosth.意為“寧愿做某事”，是prefer的固定用法，故該空填to。45.考查謂語動詞。句意：他們經(jīng)常選擇在家里睡覺。該句主語為they，該空作謂語，且該句陳述的是客觀事實，故該空要用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)。填choose。

46.考查連詞。句意：他們經(jīng)常選擇在家里而不是在教室或宿舍里睡覺。根據(jù)句意，該空填or。47.考查名詞。該控在句中做主語，填名詞。makearrangements/makeanarrangement意為“進行安排”，故填arrangement。48.考查名詞所有格形式。句意：經(jīng)過了一上午的努力學習之后，同學們可以好好地休息休息。該空修飾名詞hardwork，故應填名詞所有格形式。49.考查被動語態(tài)。句意：學生們不應該被要求做額外的作業(yè)。主語students和ask之間是被動關系，故該句應用被動語態(tài)，故填asked。50.考查形容詞。該空和energetic并列，做系動詞feel的表語，故該空填形容詞refreshed，意為“精神抖擻的，恢復精力的”。20.RobertF.Kennedyoncesaidthatacountry’sGDPmeasures"everythingexceptthatwhichmakeslifeworthwhile."WithBritainvotingtoleavetheEuropeanUnion,andGDPalreadypredictedtoslowasaresult,itisnowatimelymomenttoassesswhathewasreferringto.ThequestionofGDPanditsusefulnesshasannoyedpolicymakersforoverhalfacentury.Manyarguethatitisaflawed(有缺陷的)concept.Itmeasuresthingsthatdonotmatterandmissesthingsthatdo.Bymostrecentmeasures,theUK'sGDPhasbeentheenvyoftheWesternworld,withrecordlowunemploymentandhighgrowthfigures.Ifeverythingwasgoingsowell,thenwhydidover17millionpeoplevoteforBrexit,despitethewarningsaboutwhatitcoulddototheircountry’seconomicprospects.Arecentannualstudyofcountriesandtheirabilitytoconvertgrowthintowell-beingshedssomelightonthatquestion.Acrossthe163countriesmeasured,theUKisoneofthepoorestperformersinensuringthateconomicgrowthistranslatedintomeaningfulimprovementsforitscitizens.RatherthanjustfocusingonGDP,over40differentsetsofcriteriafromhealth,educationandcivilsocietyengagementhavebeenmeasuredtogetamoreroundedassessmentofhowcountriesareperforming.Whileallofthesecountriesfacetheirownchallenges,thereareanumberofconsistentthemes.Yes,therehasbeenabuddingeconomicrecoverysincethe2008globalcrash,butinkeyindicatorsinareassuchashealthandeducation,majoreconomieshavecontinuedtodecline.Yetthisisn'tthecasewithallcountries.SomelypoorEuropeancountrieshaveseenhugeimprovementsacrossmeasuresincludingcivilsociety,incomeequalityandtheenvironment.Thisisalessonthatrichcountriescanlearn:WhenGDPisnolongerregardedasthesolemeasureofacountry'ssuccess,theworldlooksverydifferent.So,whatKennedywasreferringtowasthatwhileGDPhasbeenthemostcommonmethodformeasuringtheeconomicactivityofnations,asameasure,itisnolongerenough.Itdoesnotincludeimportantfactorssuchasenvironmentalqualityoreducationoutcomesallthingsthatcontributetoaperson’ssenseofwell-being.ThesharphittogrowthpredictedaroundtheworldandintheUKcouldleadtoadeclineintheeverydayserviceswedependonforourwell-beingandforgrowth.Butpolicymakerswhorefocuseffortsonimprovingwell-beinginsteadofsimplyworryingaboutGDPfigurescouldavoidtheforecasteddoomandmayevenseeprogress.Title:HighGDPBut____71____Well-being,aUKLessonPassageoutlineSupportingdetailsDifferentopinionsofGDP·RobertF.Kennedybelievedthateverythingwasmeasuredbyacountry'sGDPexcept___72___madelifeworthwhile.·ManypeopleholdbeliefthatGDPmeasureswhatisunimportantandmisseswhat____73____GDPasthemeasureof___74___iswidelydefiedintheUK.·DespitethefacttheWestemworldhasenviedtheUK'sforitshighGDPwithhigh___75___andhighgrowthfigures,over17millionpeoplevotedtoleavetheEuropeanUnion.·Arecentannualstudyshowsthatinthe163countriesmeasured,theUKisoneofcountries,whichhavemost____76____transformedeconomicgrowthintomeaningfulimprovementsforitscitizens.Mainassessmentsofacountry’s___77___·Over40____78____ofcriteriafromhealth,educationandcivilsocietyengagement.·Environmentalqualityoreducationoutcomes-allthings____79____inaperson'ssenseofhappiness.FactorsconsideredbeyondGDPPolicymakers,whodon'tsimplyworryaboutGDPfigures,insteadthink______80______ofimprovinghappiness,canavoidforecastingdoomandmayevenseeprogress.

80.highly/much本文是一篇說明文，介紹了據(jù)GDP顯示，英國擁有令西方國家羨慕的低失業(yè)率和高增長數(shù)據(jù)，但英國民眾的幸福感不強，這說明GDP不能真實地反映出民眾的幸福指數(shù)，政策制定者應該將精力重新集中在改善民生上，而不僅僅是擔心GDP數(shù)據(jù)?！?1題詳解】考查形容詞。根據(jù)第一段中的“Ifeverythingwasgoingsowell,thenwhydidover17millionpeoplevoteforBrexit,despitethewarningsaboutwhatitcoulddototheircountry’seconomicprospects.”可知，如果英國真擁有令人羨慕的低失業(yè)率和高增長數(shù)據(jù)的話，為什么還有那么多英國民眾不顧本國經(jīng)濟前景而支持英國脫歐呢？由此可知，英國雖然擁有高GDP，但是英國民眾的幸福感不足，修飾名詞well-being用形容詞，故填Inadequate?！?2題詳解】考查主語從句。根據(jù)第一段中的“RobertF.Kennedyoncesaidthatacountry’sGDPmeasures"everythingexceptthatwhichmakeslifeworthwhile.”可知，RobertF.Kennedy認為，GDP衡量了除了讓生活與意義以外的所有東西，從句中缺少主語，故填what?！?3題詳解】考查動詞。根據(jù)第一段中的“Itmeasuresthingsthatdonotmatterandmissesthingsthatdo.”可知，GDP衡量的是無關緊要的東西，而忽略了真正重要的東西，故填counts/matters?！?4題詳解】考查名詞。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“WhenGDPisnolongerregardedasthesolemeasureofacountry'ssuccess,theworldlooksverydifferent.”可知，GDP被視為衡量一個國家成功與否的唯一標準受到民眾的廣泛質(zhì)疑，故填success?！?5題詳解】考查名詞。根據(jù)第一段中的“Ifeverythingwasgoingsowell,thenwhydidover17millionpeoplevoteforBrexit,despitethewarningsaboutwhatitcoulddototheircountry’seconomicprospects.”可知，如果英國真擁有令人羨慕的低失業(yè)率和高增長數(shù)據(jù)的話，為什么還有那么多英國民眾不顧本國經(jīng)濟前景而支持英國脫歐呢？低失業(yè)率對應高就業(yè)率，故填employment?！?6題詳解】考查副詞。根據(jù)第二段中的“Acrossthe163countriesmeasured,theUKisoneofthepoorestperformersinensuringthateconomicgrowthistranslatedintomeaningfulimprovementsforitscitizens.”可知，在確保經(jīng)濟增長轉(zhuǎn)化為對本國居民有意義的改善方面，英國是表現(xiàn)得最差的國家之一，修飾動詞transformed用副詞，故填poorly?！?7題詳解】考查名詞。根據(jù)第二段中的“RatherthanjustfocusingonGDP,over40differentsetsofcriteriafromhealth,educationandcivilsocietyengagementhavebeenmeasuredtogetamoreroundedassessmentofhowcountriesareperforming.”可知，人們不僅關注GDP，還衡量了來自衛(wèi)生、教育和公民社會參與等40多套不同標準，以更全面地評估各國的表現(xiàn)，故填performance?！?8題詳解】考查名詞。根據(jù)第二段中的“over40differentsetsofcriteriafromhealth,educationandcivilsocietyengagementhavebeenmeasuredtogetamoreroundedassessmentofhowcountriesareperforming.”可知，人們衡量了來自衛(wèi)生、教育和公民社會參與等40多套不同標準，故填varieties/ranges?！?9題詳解】考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Itdoesnotincludeimportantfactorssuchasenvironmentalqualityoreducationoutcomesallthingsthatcontributetoaperson’ssenseofwell-being.”可知，它不包括重要的因素，如環(huán)境質(zhì)量或教育成果，所有有助于一個人的幸福感的事情，resultin表示“導致”，things與result之間是邏輯上的主謂關系，表示主動，用現(xiàn)在分詞作后置定語，故填resulting?！?0題詳解】考查副詞。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Butpolicymakerswhorefocuseffortsonimprovingwell-beinginsteadofsimplyworryingaboutGDPfigurescouldavoidtheforecasteddoomandmayevenseeprogress.”可知，如果政策制定者將精力重新集中在改善民生上，而不僅僅是擔心GDP數(shù)據(jù)，就能避免預測中的厄運，甚至會看到進展，thinkhighly/muchof表示“重視、看重”，故填highly/much。三、閱讀理解21.Chinahasannouncedit'sabolishingitsone-childpolicy.Whatdifferencehasitmade,statisticallyspeaking?400millionbirthspreventedTheone-childpolicy,officiallyinplacesince1979,hasprevented400millionbirths.Parentshavefacedfinesandotherpunishmentsforhavingmorechildren.ThemajorityofthedecreaseinChina'sfertility(生育)ratehappenedinthe1970s.Itdroppedfrom5.8childrenperwomanin1970t02.7in
