16.byby解析：此空所在短句意為“報(bào)酬經(jīng)常毀掉創(chuàng)造性，…鼓勵(lì)依賴他人的認(rèn)可和禮物?！憋@然，空處應(yīng)填“通過”，在英語中介詞by即可表達(dá)此意。

17.linklink解析：與37題對(duì)應(yīng)，此處應(yīng)填link，表明在“near-pointgripping”和“slow，illegiblewriting”之間存在聯(lián)系。

18.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應(yīng)填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應(yīng)是“年輕的”。

19.especiallyespecially解析：“Around1980manyJapanese，——youngpeople…”，“1980年左右許多日本人，尤其是年輕人…”，所以此處應(yīng)填“especially”。

20.dumpingdumping解析：由本句句意“通過將污水和化學(xué)物質(zhì)…入河流和湖泊，…”可知，此空處顯然應(yīng)為“倒”。又因?yàn)榻樵~后只能用dumping，而不能用dump。

21.workwork解析：根據(jù)上文，對(duì)比的是對(duì)工作的態(tài)度，所以此處應(yīng)填“work”。

22.toto解析：revertto意為“重想，重提”，此句意為“如果你經(jīng)常提到‘我們以前已經(jīng)試著這樣做了，但是不管用’就會(huì)很快地挫傷這種好問的頭腦”。

23.awareaware解析：beawareof，固定搭配，意為“意識(shí)到”。所以此處應(yīng)填“aware”。

24.workwork解析：根據(jù)上文，對(duì)比的是對(duì)工作的態(tài)度，所以此處應(yīng)填“work”。

25.bringbring解析：通過前一句話“suchadreamerCanbebroughtbacktoearth．”中的brought可以知道，這里應(yīng)該填bring，表示“把…帶到”。故答案為bring。

26.BB解析：該空缺下面的段落都是對(duì)每一個(gè)“myth”的揭示。誰來揭示呢?B項(xiàng)中提到牛津大學(xué)老齡化研究中心成立各個(gè)問題研究組。

27.B解析：由第四段中的“Thehorsesarelessaffectedthanamanwouldbe，andwhentheelectriceelshaveexhaustedthemselves，theycanbecaughtwithoutdanger．”可知。

28.B解析：根據(jù)第三段和第四段的論述，我們可以得知作者的總體看法，即特別的勞工防護(hù)法并沒有保護(hù)婦女的權(quán)益，故B項(xiàng)正確。A項(xiàng)與作者的觀點(diǎn)明顯相悖，所以不正確。C項(xiàng)從文中不能推知，故不正確。文中沒有提到男性工人的保護(hù)問題，故D項(xiàng)也不正確。

29.B解析：由文章倒數(shù)第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetalltothehead．”可知。

30.C解析：A、B、D在文中均提到，是正確的，而C不對(duì)，文中提到“Youwouldexpectthemtofindtheirfriendsfromtheirprofessionalassociates,butthisisnotthecase.Rather,theyprefertomakefriendswiththenormalfolkintheirdistricts.”

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

32.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend，andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

33.D解析：由D中的第一段“…ithasahistoryofmorethan1，300”可知。

34.A解析：由A中的第一段“Washington，thecapitaloftheUnitedStates，isinWashingtonD.C.”可知答案為A。

35.B解析：由短文第三段第一句“Incometaxesarethemainsourceoffederalrevenues．”。

36.CC解析：由上下兩段看，只有C放在此處可以使上下文銜接，意思連貫。

37.A解析：劃線單詞所在句子句意為“事情的另一面是：保險(xiǎn)公司已經(jīng)開發(fā)了一些很有創(chuàng)造性的，能與其他替代產(chǎn)品，諸如投資競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的產(chǎn)品。它們能夠滿足任何一種全面投資計(jì)劃的需求?！笨梢姟八鼈儭奔粗浮癱reativeandcompetitiveinsuranceproducts”。

38.D解析：由短文最后一段中的“Butnewmaterialshavenoimpactuntiltheyaremadeintoproducts…willdeterminethesuccessorfailureofacountryinthecomingfuture．”。

39.D解析：原文對(duì)應(yīng)信息是：“Eagertoboosttheirmagazinerankings，whicharebasedinpartonthetestscoresofenteringfreshmen．they’rethrowingmoreaidatsmarterkids——whethertheyneeditornot．”該句話說明“學(xué)校為了提高其雜志排名，就給那些比較聰明的孩子經(jīng)濟(jì)上給予較大的幫助，不管他們需不需要幫助”。由此可以看出，急需幫助的學(xué)生并不一定就能獲得幫助。所以A、B、C均不符合題意。所以本題應(yīng)選D。

40.A解析：由文章第四段中的“Anotherfamousexampleistheelectrical．Thisfishgivesanevenmorepowerfulshock．”可知。

41.B短文賞析

過去的時(shí)代常常用某一種材料命名。未來的材料科學(xué)時(shí)代將迎來許多新的技術(shù)。新材料出現(xiàn)的關(guān)鍵在于研究者越來越能夠在分子層次上操縱材料。科學(xué)家制造了硬度更高的抗熱瓷器。同樣，塑料也經(jīng)歷了轉(zhuǎn)變。高強(qiáng)度塑料被用來作為建筑材料，還出現(xiàn)了能夠發(fā)電的塑料，塑料回收再利用功能得以增強(qiáng)，而用塑料制成的化合物甚至被用于制造戰(zhàn)斗頭盔。由玻璃制成的電纜將電話訊號(hào)傳遞到全國(guó)各地。但是，新材料的影響只有制成產(chǎn)品才能夠被看到。因此，技術(shù)的商業(yè)化將決定一個(gè)國(guó)家未來的成敗。

答案解析:

由短文第一段最后一句“Exoticplastics，glassandceramicswillshapethefuturejustassurelyashavegeneticengineeringandcomputerscience．”可知，本文提到了三種新材料。

42.B由B中的第三段第二句話“NewYorkhasbecomeoneoftheworld’sbusiestportsandalsothefinancial，manufacturing，andtravelcenterofthecountry．”可知答案為B。

43.B由第五段可知雖然美國(guó)人聲稱自己攝入的卡路里量下降，但這并不是真的，故A項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的。美國(guó)人總是在食物攝入量上撒謊，所以并不能推出他們知道自己吃了多少，故C項(xiàng)不正確。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句話可以知道D項(xiàng)不正確。

44.B由本文倒數(shù)第一段中的“Asfortheastronauts’politicalleanings，theyseemtobetowardstheright．”

45.C短文賞析

孩提時(shí)代的快樂是神奇的，無窮無盡的，但是到了青少年時(shí)代，快樂就稍稍變了樣子，種種煩惱開始出現(xiàn)，而成年之后，快樂就變得更加復(fù)雜，不再能夠簡(jiǎn)單定義。作者認(rèn)為，快樂應(yīng)該被定義為享受的能力。我們應(yīng)當(dāng)能夠從一切中得到樂趣，看到自己的幸福所在。每個(gè)人都有不同的快樂之源，與他人閑聊、接聽電話、開快車等，都可能給不同的人帶來快樂的感覺。心理學(xué)家說追求快樂應(yīng)該能夠放松，工作滿意。作者認(rèn)為，擁有金錢并不一定會(huì)帶來快樂，快樂與否取決于個(gè)人對(duì)人生的態(tài)度和看待生活的方式，只有享受周圍的一切才能與快樂相會(huì)。

答案解析：

文章第二段講的是“Intheteenageyears”的事，故第三段順理成章應(yīng)講“Inadulthood．．．”。2022年貴州省六盤水市公共英語五級(jí)(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學(xué)校:________班級(jí):________姓名:________考號(hào):________
