參考答案

1.A解析：文章第三段提到“Insteadofstealingcars,heletssomeoneelsedoitandthenwaitsforthecar-ownertoplaceanad(啟事)inthenewspaperaskingforhelp.”故正確答案應(yīng)為A。

2.A解析：文章第一段的最后兩行，作者說戰(zhàn)爭結(jié)束他們就可以回到倫敦了。由此可見，他們在第二次世界大戰(zhàn)前是住在倫敦的，而第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間是住在一個小鎮(zhèn)。選項A是正確的。

3.D

4.A

5.C解析：參見最后一段。

6.C從短文第一段第一句Advertisement…tobuyorsellgoodsorservices．可知廣告的作用是推動銷售。

7.B

8.B解析：本文講的是大學校園里如何禁止學生酗酒。倒數(shù)第二段中提到，學校規(guī)定入校新生必須上規(guī)定的特殊課程——酒精教育課。這門課的目的是讓學生了解酒精的危害。

9.B44．第二段。燃燒垃圾既補充了能源又省了地。選項B是正確的。

10.C36．答案為C

此題考查主題思想判斷。注意文章中的第1段和最后一段，發(fā)現(xiàn)有wildandfarmbirdsoftengetafluvirus，thebestwaytostopthespreadofbirdflu，注意下劃線部分。主題思想一般位于文章的第1段或最后一段，故選C為答案。

11.A解析：細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第一段第一行“Duringthesummervacationtherewillbearevisedscheduleofservicesfortheuniversitycommunity”可知本文是要介紹夏季校園的一些服務(wù)時間的變化。

12.C解析：見原文最后一段。1909年，馬可尼與德國科學家分享了諾貝爾獎。

13.C解析：第二段。這段解釋什么是冬眠。前面說的是發(fā)生在冬天睡眠的現(xiàn)象，最后總結(jié)這個現(xiàn)象就是冬眠。選項C是正確的。

14.D

15.B解析：參見第二段。

16.D49．從全文來看，Jones逃離監(jiān)獄、參加海軍、并領(lǐng)導海軍贏得勝利。所以說他是勇敢的、無畏的。選項D是正確的。

17.B解析：本題屬主旨判斷題。文章第一段主要講：第一輛汽車的重要性，第二、三段主要講：汽車是怎樣發(fā)動起來的。

18.C本題為細節(jié)判斷題。從第二段第二句“Those材signsareasfollowing：whentoshakehandsandwhattosaywhenmeetpeople，Whenandhowtogivetips，howtomakepurchases，whentoacceptandrefuseinvitations，whentotakestatementsseriouslyandwhennot”可知，文化沖突會使我們不知所措。而C項卻不是文化沖突所造成的。

19.C解析：第四段。羊是最承受艱苦的動物。它可以在非常貧瘠的土地上生存。選項c是正確的。

20.D文中第二段指出。MaryOuterbridge將lawntennis這項運動從Bermuda帶到了美國紐約，并且1874年春天，她在美國打了第一場比賽。

21.B根據(jù)文中第四段第一句可知，哥白尼起初沒有將他的發(fā)現(xiàn)公布于世。

22.C

23.C48．倒數(shù)第二段第二句話。選項C是正確的。

24.D解析：通讀全文可知作者客觀地評述了話題。

25.D解析：參見原文最后一句。

26.A

27.B解析：這篇文章主要講的是藥物對感冒的作用。第一段講到，人們提出一個疑問，科學家都能讓人類上月球，為什么就不能治愈感冒呢?因為，感冒的病毒成千上萬，而我們又不能確定患的是哪種病毒引起的感冒，所以無法治療。

28.A解析：在第六段，Cusick說，馬戲團在雇用他時就已經(jīng)知道他是艾滋病病毒攜帶者，因此在他花費長時間的準備之后，又沒有讓他登臺演出就解雇他是不公平的。

29.B解析：全文都在講獲取幫助的策略，故選B。

30.B

31.D解析：參考下文，It'sactuallyratherdifficulttosay．．．可知，此處表達的是與difficult相反的意思，因此應(yīng)選擇easy為答案。因有兩個與easy有關(guān)的備選答案，需進一步分析。因easy修飾單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞，因此只有選擇aneasy。

32.C解析：然后叔叔轉(zhuǎn)向男孩問他做了什么事。

33.A注意寫在黑板上的信息。

34.D解析：根據(jù)上下文，可以看出這里講的是對假樹的清潔工作：清洗和除塵。Sweepthemoff把樹掃掉，washthemoff把樹洗掉，tidy整理。都不符合文章含義。選項D是正確的。

35.D

36.C此題測試理解、辨詞和推理能力。在該句中，英文aroundthem，意為“在它們周圍”，及下旬中aroundthecity，意為“在城市周圍”都提示了．此處的填充詞應(yīng)表達一個“郊區(qū)的”的意思。但如沒有掌握英文suburban一詞，可用排除法。city為“城市”，urban為“城市的”，countryside

為“農(nóng)村”，因而只剩一個suburban，它必定是答案。

37.A久和平的基礎(chǔ)上的相互信任邁出了第一步。

38.C解析：Itissuggestedthat．．．意為“表明……”，其后不用should加動詞原形的虛擬式。

39.B

40.B解析：keepdoingsth，表示“持續(xù)做某事”。

41.C解析：讀懂全句可知，該句的意思是“美國人的獨立精神是使轎車大眾化的原因”。which可作關(guān)系代詞，但在句中無先行詞；可作疑問代詞，但句中無此意。that可作關(guān)系代詞，但句中無先行代詞；可作連詞，但從句中無主語。where可作關(guān)系代詞，但無先行詞，從句中也無主語；可作疑問副詞，但句中無主語。what可作表語從句的主語，引導名詞從句，相當于thatwhich。

42.C解析：本題屬詞選題。dark(黑的)與后面的"black"相對應(yīng)。

43.A

44.A

45.A

46.B根據(jù)theindefiniteneeds可知應(yīng)選擇serving，意思為“滿足不同的需要”。

47.A

48.C解析：本題測試運用介詞的能力。本題中與介詞搭配的是被其他詞修飾的mornings，根據(jù)語法規(guī)則應(yīng)該用On，這與詞組inthemorning中的用法不同。

49.C23．答案為C

根據(jù)本段后面的細節(jié)或第三、四段的段首句可知此處應(yīng)為“贊成某事”而非反對，因此應(yīng)選介詞for與argument搭配。

50.D固定搭配題。

【應(yīng)試指導】George一家住在公園對面的街道上。acrossfrom在……的對面：

51.Astandfor“代表”；standout“突出，出色，支撐住”；standup“站起”；standby“遵守袖手旁觀”。

52.A顯然空格里需填入一個副詞來形容，以過去分詞形式出現(xiàn)的形容詞taught，所以首先排除B，C，此外oneof…之后須加入一個最高級形式，所以A正確。

53.Alet的句型是：letsth．+be+過去分詞；make的句型為：makesth．+過去分詞；allow的句型是：allow+賓語+帶t0的動詞不定式；do在此不合語法。

54.Dtakeapart指“拆開(機器)”等；takein指“接受，吸收”；takeover指“接收，接任”；takeup“拿起，占去，占據(jù)”。

55.C14．答案為C

wasmaking星動詞的過去進行時，表示在過去某一時間里，動作正在進行；

56.C解析：本題測試形似詞辨義。require意為“要求”；acquire意為“獲得”；inquire意為“打聽”；squire意為“鄉(xiāng)紳”。本句大意為：昨天主任向我了解我們的工作情況。

57.D表示更詳盡的細節(jié)應(yīng)用further。Father更遠的(距離上的)。給我更多一點細節(jié)好嗎?

58.B解析：thinksthover表“仔細思考，考慮”。

59.B解析：本題測試動詞辨義。convince意為“使……信服”；compel意為“迫使”；conceive意為“構(gòu)思”；conquer意為“征服”。結(jié)合句意，應(yīng)選B。本句大意為：不可能逼迫一個愛國者背叛其同胞。

60.B解析：時間狀語從句中要用一般現(xiàn)在時表示將來。湖北省荊門市成考專升本英語學校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
