2017英語一答案

1A.BesidesB.UnlikeC.ThroughoutD.Despite

【答案】A

【解析】根據(jù)本句句內(nèi)邏輯關(guān)系，“itturnsoutthathugs…”說明擁抱還有其他結(jié)果。因此，

前文的邏輯關(guān)系應(yīng)該為“除此以外”，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，A.Besides（除此之外）最為合適。

2A.equalB.restrictedC.connectedD.inferior

【答案】C

【解析】本題實(shí)為邏輯關(guān)系題。根據(jù)句子前后結(jié)構(gòu)“helpingyouffeelcloseand（2）”,

我們可以判斷，由于空格處與前面內(nèi)容通過and連接，說明我們要選擇一個(gè)單詞與feelclose

同義，并且要與后面介詞to連用。因此，通過對(duì)于四個(gè)選項(xiàng)含義判斷，C選項(xiàng)有“關(guān)聯(lián)的”

含義最為符合。

3A.viewB.hostC.lessonD.choice

【答案】B

【解析】此題為固定搭配?！癮host。廣表示大量的。其他選項(xiàng)搭配不合理。

4A.avoidB.forgetC.recallD.keep

【答案】A

［解析］根據(jù)題干信息“awarmembracemightevenhelpyou_____（4）gettingsickthiswinter."

中，出現(xiàn)“even”，表示“甚至“，說明此句話與上一句話存在贏曲邏輯關(guān)系。上一句話的語

義表示“擁抱可以帶來大量的好處”，因此，這句話也應(yīng)該表示擁抱的好處。根據(jù)四個(gè)選項(xiàng)含

義,A.avoid（避免）B.forget（忘記）C.recall（回憶）D.keep（保持），A選項(xiàng)“避免

生病”最符合文意。

5A.collectingB.affectingC.guidingD.involving

【答案】D

【解析】本題考查現(xiàn)在分詞做后置定語，需要選擇一個(gè)現(xiàn)在分詞修飾前面的“study"，因此，

結(jié)合四個(gè)選項(xiàng)A.collecting（收集）B.affecting（影響）C.guiding（引導(dǎo)）D.involving（涉

及、卷入），根據(jù)句子含義，應(yīng)該表達(dá)“關(guān)于涉及400人”的研究。因此正確選項(xiàng)應(yīng)為D

6A.onB.inC.atD.of

【答案】A

【解析】本題為固定搭配。根據(jù)句義“examined
