16.whatwhat解析：這句話的意思是“這就是商家和賣(mài)者希望顧客們做的事情”，what引導(dǎo)的是一個(gè)表語(yǔ)從句，故答案為what。

17.areare解析：分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)，這里缺少系動(dòng)詞be來(lái)構(gòu)成動(dòng)詞的被動(dòng)形式。故答案為are。

18.thatthat解析：此空后面的句子為suggesting的內(nèi)容，即應(yīng)為其賓語(yǔ)從句，所以此空處應(yīng)填引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句的詞，即that。

19.FortunatelyFortunately解析：由本句句意“…可以看到有解決辦法的希望了。”可知，此空應(yīng)填“幸運(yùn)的是”。

20.ofof解析：deprivesb．ofsth．為固定短語(yǔ)，意為“剝奪某人的某東西(或某權(quán)利)”。

21.losinglosing解析：根據(jù)上下文的意思，很多年輕一代的日本人已經(jīng)不再尊重父母，不再對(duì)家庭有責(zé)任感，所以這里用losing表示“漸漸失去了”。所以此處應(yīng)填“l(fā)osing”。

22.whosewhose解析：此句意為“StephanieThomas，一位學(xué)習(xí)輔導(dǎo)老師，…發(fā)現(xiàn)已經(jīng)發(fā)表了…?！庇纱丝芍?，空處所填單詞必為whose，引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句，修飾teacher。

23.fromfrom解析：“來(lái)自…的數(shù)據(jù)”，要用介詞“from”。所以此處應(yīng)填“from”。

24.withoutwithout解析：此處意為年輕人更喜歡沒(méi)有重大責(zé)任的簡(jiǎn)單工作。所以此處應(yīng)填“without”。

25.whosewhose解析：這是一個(gè)后置定語(yǔ)從句，用whose來(lái)引導(dǎo)，表示mind與dreamer的所屬關(guān)系。故答案為whose。

26.C解析：通過(guò)全文的理解，我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)作者在列數(shù)了經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)不好的局面之后，也表明了人們對(duì)此依然存在著樂(lè)觀態(tài)度，有的人還能從中受益，所以作者的態(tài)度應(yīng)該是“對(duì)此加以注意，但不要惶恐?！惫蕬?yīng)選C。

27.B解析：原文的第三段最后“Whattheydidnotknow…followedapattern—whatisreferredtoas”artificialgrammar“.Yetthereductionsinresponsetimeshowedthat…”說(shuō)明了這種內(nèi)在模式，也就是“artificialgrammar”，對(duì)于記憶的重要性。故應(yīng)選B。

28.B解析：由短文第一段中的“Andaccordingtolegend，therewasaTurkishrulerwho…ToPayforthewearandtearonhisteeth”。

29.A解析：在第三段最后一句“…oneculture—basedproducthasbeenclearedformarketinginEurope．”里出現(xiàn)了“cleared”一詞。根據(jù)下文中“marketing”和讀者有關(guān)藥品上市前應(yīng)該得到批準(zhǔn)的常識(shí)，可以判斷出，該詞在本句中的意思是“得到官方的批準(zhǔn)”。因此正確答案為A。

30.A解析：由A中第三段中“TheunpopulararchitecturehasledtotheareabeingcalledtheMiltonKeynesofLondon”，A中多處提到Rotherhithe的建筑風(fēng)格很老套。所以此處答案為A。

31.D解析：由D中“TheprojectincludesanewEurostarterminalopeningthisyearandaspruced—upTubestation，alongsidehundredsofnewhomes，officesandleisurefacilitiessettobecompletedin2015．”可以看出將在King’sCross投資建立許多基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。所以此處答案為D。

32.C解析：由第三段最后一句“Lifeinsuranceisan…isnotsubjecttotaxes．incontrasttootherpersonalinvestments．”可知。

33.D解析：由D中的第二段第一句話“…thatelementsofitcanbefoundinvirtuallyevery‘organizedcrimefilm’nowadays；…”可知。

34.D解析：由D中的第三段第二句話“CaliforniaisaleadingstateintheproductionofelectronicproductsandtheareaofLosAngeleshasgrownintoallimportantelectroniccenter．”可知答案為D。

35.A解析：由全文看，作者在講述一種觀點(diǎn)：當(dāng)聯(lián)合國(guó)(UN)猶豫不決時(shí)，第三世界已經(jīng)采取了行動(dòng)。

36.AA解析：由上下兩段可知，只有A放在此處可以使上下文銜接，意思順暢。

37.C解析：選項(xiàng)A即心理學(xué)家已經(jīng)放棄，而生物學(xué)家正在展開(kāi)研究工作。而文中第三句話說(shuō)“Psychologistsviewthesubjecteitherasamatteroffrustrationorajoke．”即心理學(xué)家認(rèn)為這個(gè)研究不是一件沮喪的事，就是一個(gè)笑話，此句和選項(xiàng)A含義不一樣。選項(xiàng)B即大腦區(qū)別顯示出一個(gè)性別優(yōu)于另外一個(gè)性別。而文中第一段最后一句話說(shuō)“Butbeingdifferent，theypointouthurriedly，isnotthesameasbeingbetterorworse．”即他們指出盡管有區(qū)別，但并不能說(shuō)明誰(shuí)優(yōu)誰(shuí)劣，此句和選項(xiàng)B含義不一樣。選項(xiàng)D兩性大腦結(jié)構(gòu)的區(qū)別早已為人所知。而文中第三段第三句話說(shuō)“Thisisthefirsttimethatastructuraldifferencehasbeenfoundbetweenthebrainsofwomenandmen…”即這是第一次人們發(fā)現(xiàn)了兩性大腦結(jié)構(gòu)的不同，此句和選項(xiàng)D含義不一樣。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

38.B解析：由B中的第一段“Theozonelayeristhreatenedbychemicalemissions，theclimateisendangeredfromfossilanddeforestation，…”可知。

39.B解析：文章第二段一開(kāi)頭就說(shuō)：“It'snotentirelyclearwhymedicinehasbeensoslowtobuildonAnderson'searlysuccess．”從時(shí)間上來(lái)看，Anderson采用基因療法的成功嘗試已經(jīng)是1990年的事情了，兩相對(duì)照，可見(jiàn)他的成功沒(méi)有讓醫(yī)學(xué)加速發(fā)展。因此正確答案為B。

40.D解析：由短文第六段可知答案為D。

41.B由短文第二段中的“Differentkindsoftaxeshelptospreadthetaxburden．．．Thatiswhythethreelevelsofgovernmentinthiscountry．．．thisspreadstheburdenoftaxesamongmorepeople．”。

42.A文章后面指出其實(shí)基因治療的原理和克隆的原理兩者完全是可以通用的，具體的解題點(diǎn)在于文章的第五段第一句話“mesameappliestocloning”。故應(yīng)選A。

43.C由C中的第一段“Lookatthetitleofthemovie，TeamAmerica：WorldPolice．ThisdefinitelysoundslikeAmerica，thebigbrothertotheworld，whetherpeoplewantUStobeornot．”可知。

44.A由此空上一段的“…onefriendsaid…”可知此處應(yīng)為：Anotherfriend…。

45.C從第一段最后一句話“Botticelli’Sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste，pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs．”可知，作者講述了那些評(píng)論家，不管是業(yè)余的還是職業(yè)的，他們都不滿意它的作品風(fēng)格。所以這個(gè)詞的意思可能是“對(duì)作品做出評(píng)論的那些業(yè)余人士”。故應(yīng)選C。2021年湖南省永州市公共英語(yǔ)五級(jí)(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學(xué)校:________班級(jí):________姓名:________考號(hào):________
