c)suffer d)play85a)field b)scope c)target d)goal86a)radical b)truthful c)meaningful d)initial答案及解析：67a 解析：aim可以与at和to构成固定搭配。但是at为介词，后面接名词或动词；而to为不定式符号，后面接动词原形。此空格后为动名词，故只能选a项。68d 解析：此句意为“各个大学之间对大学教学或科研的功能的重视程度不尽相同。”此处vary作“有不同”解，可以构成vary fromto短语，意为“因而异”。例如：it varies from person to personb项ranges是一个很强的干扰项但它表示在某个幅度或范围内变动，与题意不符，不能选。a项和c项与语境所要求的意义相去甚远。都不能选。69c 解析：四个选项都可以和空格前的介词in搭配。in prospect意为“期望中”。例如：a bumper harvest is in prospectin place意为“在适当的位置”，例如：have you got a11 the lights in place? in control(of)意为“掌管着，控制着”，例如：she may be old，but shes still in controlin favor意为“受宠，赞成”。例如：that child is clearly in favor；she has been given an extra biscuitand为并列连词，而空格后面讲的是根据学校现有的资源，那么空格前的并列部分。也应是讲学校自身的某一因素。people in control指“掌管的人”，这儿即指学校的主管人员。符合文意，应选c项。70b 解析：a项occupy意为“占领”；b项possess，意为 “拥有，具备”；c项involve意为“包含，卷入”；d项spare意为“腾出，舍不得”。本句意为“规模较小或是新建的大学并不拥有可以在规模比较大的学校开展的大型研究的工作人员和设备。”可见只有b项符合句意，其他几项均不符合句意。71d 解析：句中的smaller，newer，larger等词给予提示。d项vast意为“巨大的，广大的，庞大的”，符合句意。又如：he is responsible for running a vast organizationa项maximum意为“最大限度最大量”，b项medium意为“中间的，中等的”，c项virtual意为“实际上”。都不符合句意。72a 解析：空格前写到：规模较小或是新建的大学并不拥有可以开展大型研究的工作人员和设备。空格后写到：专家们认为，为了使学生和教师能够及时了解学科发展的最新信息，搞科研是很有必要的。显然这儿缺少一个表示转折意味的并列连词。因此，选用a项。73b 解析：注意：essential的名词形式为essence，而be essential to意为“对至关重要”。符合句意。又如：sun and water are essential to the growth of crops而a项natural意为“自然的”。c项functional意为“实用的。机能的”，d项optional意为“任意的，可自由选择的”，都与句意相差甚远。74c 解析：此句意为“搞科研就得让师生员工能够及时了解他们学科的前沿信息。”in touch with意为“联系，接触”，符合句意，故选c项。又如：im trying to get in touch with my brother另外，要注意keep sbin touch with sbsth意为“使某人与某人，某物保持联系，接触”，而in coordination with意为“协调，配合”，in accordance with意为“根据”。75a 解析：此处意为“学生上大学主要是为了获取知识。”acquire意为“获得(技能、知识等)”，与knowledge搭配，符合句意。表示“获取”知识还可以用gain，obtain等动词。“吸收知识”为absorbassimilate knowledge；“积累知识”则为accumulatebuild up knowledge。76b 解析：根据常识可知：学生上大学主要是为了获取有关他们所选择的职业的知识。b项profession意为“职业”，符合句意。a项procession意为“行列行进”，c项possession意为“拥有”，d项preference意为“偏爱”。均不符合文意。77d 解析：a项typical意为“典型的”，c项mere意为“只不过的，仅仅的”，都不符合句意。空格前一句讲到：学生上大学主要是为了获取知识。空格后一句讲到：大学的目标在于所培养的人才不仅仅学识应渊博，而且还要有判断能力、明智。因此，获取知识不是惟一目标。可见，d项符合文意。78a 解析：with可作“具备，持有”解，在此引出一个介词短语作定语，符合文意。又如：he married a woman with a large fortune其他几项均不符合文意。不能选。79c 解析：前文提到：获取知识不是学生上大学的惟一目标。学校希望培养出有判断力、明智的人。因此，它们应鼓励学生去结识其他兴趣广泛的人。c项encourage意为“鼓励。鼓舞”常用于encourage sbto do sth句型中符合句意。a项prompt意为“促使，驱使”；b项provoke“激起刺激，驱使”；d项anticipate意为“预期，期待”，均不符合题意。80c 解析：b项expressions意为“表达法”；d项curiosities意为“好奇，奇事；古董”以及a项histories显然都不符合句意。interest作“兴趣、关心”解时为可数或不可数名词；作“利益”解时，为可数名词；作“利息”解时为不可数名词。此处它作“兴趣”解，符合句意，故选c项。又如：she and her husband shared the same tastes and interests，81a 解析：b项lengthen意为“延长”；c项enforce意为“实施，强制”；d项specify意为“具体指定，明确说田”，均不符合文意。此处若为broaden their understanding in many fields of study则意为“增进对许多学科的了解”。完全符合上下文。其他能与understanding搭配的动词还有：acquirearrive atgainobtainadvancedeependevelopenhanceenrichimproveincreaselackhaveshowreflect等。82b 解析：空格后的a secondary school course以及interested enough等给予解题提示。此处说的是：学完中学的课程之后，学生应当对某一学科有足够的兴趣乐于获取这一学科的知识。a项、c项、d项显然都说不通只有b项符合文意。83d 解析：a项、b项、c项均无法与前面的for his own构成符合上下文的搭配只有d项符合文意。这里要注意几个与sake有关的短语的意义与用法：for the sake of sthdoing sth意为“为了获得或保持某事物”：例如：she changed into old clothes for the sake of comfortfor the sake of sb，sth或for sbssths sake意为“为了某人或某物起见”：例如：i11 help you for your sisters sakefor sbs own sake则意为“为了自己的利益”。例如：i hope hes told her the truth for his own sake 84c 解析：此处指学生为了自己的兴趣爱好做出牺牲。make a sacrifice意为“做出牺牲”，为固定搭配，符合文意。又如：parents often make sacrifices for their children85a 解析：a项field意为“田野，(研究、活动等的)领域，场地”；b项scope意为“(活动、影响等的)范围，余地，机会”；c项target意为“靶，目标”；d项goal意为“目标，目的”。显然，a项为答案。上文的be interested enough in a subject to enjoy gaining knowledge给予解题提示。86c 解析：空格所在句子与文章首段第二句相互呼应。大学办学的目的之一就是要开展科研活动，扩展人类的知识，而大学生也应有为人类知识做出贡献的抱负。当然这些贡献是富有意义的，可见c项符合文意。又如：the statistics are not very meaningful when taken out of contexta项radical意为“根本的，激进的”，d项initial意为“最初的初期的”以及b项truthful均不符合句意。test 2 【cet-4：2007.12】one factor that can influence consumers is their mood slatemood may be defined 67 a temporary and mind positive or negative feeling that is generalized and not tied 68 any particular circumstancemoods should be 69 from emotions which are usually more intense, 70 to specific circumstance, and often conscious. 71 a sense, the effect of a consumers mood can be thought of in 72 the same way as can our reactions to the 73 of our friends-when our friends are happy and “up”, that tend to influence us positively, 74 when they are “down”, that can have a 75 impact on us. similarly, consumers operating under a 76 mood state tend to react to stimuli(刺激因素)in a direction 77 with that mood state. thus, for example, we should expect to see 78 in a positive mood state evaluate products in more of a 79 manner than they would when not in such a state. 80 , mood states appear capable of 81 a consumers memory.moods appear to be 82 influenced marketing techniques. for example, the rhythm, pitch and 83 of music has been shown to influence behavior such as the 84 of time spent in supermarkets or 85 to purchase products. in addition, advertising can influence consumersmood which, in 86 , are capable of influencing consumers reactions to products.67a)with b)about c)as d)bv68a)up b)to c)under d)over69a)divided

sth为固定搭配，意为“给下定义”，c项正确。又如：the oxford dictionary defines the“sportsman”as a good fellowd项有强烈的干扰作用但是它所接词语应是施动者，而此空格后面的词语显然不是施动者，故不能选d项。68b 解析：be tied to sth为习惯表达法，意为“联系在一起，依附于”，故b项正确，又如：the fiat is tied to the job69d 解析：a项divided意为“分开”，b项derived意为“来自，源于”，c项descended意为“来自，起源于”，d项distinguish意为“区分开”，都可以和介词from搭配。只有d项符合语境。70b 解析：d项associated意为“联想，交友”，常与介词with搭配，故可先排除。a项referred意为“论及，参照有关”；b项related意为“与有关叙述”：c项attached意为“附属，安装”，都可以和介词to搭配。根据上题解析的提示，此处意为“与特定的环境有关”。故b项为正确答案。71a 解析：in a sense等于in a way，为习惯表达法，意为“在某种意义上”。又如：what you say is true in a sense72c 解析：空格位于in the same way这一短语中。所选的词应可以用来修饰the same。much the same意为“几乎一样”。其他选项均不能用来修饰the same只能选c项。注意：此语言点在2006年6月四级考试的第78题出现过。73a 解析：b项gesture意为“手势”；c项signal意为“信号”；d项view意为“视野，观点”，从空格后面所出现的破折号可知，破折号后面的句子应该是对前面所填的词的解释，而句中的happy，up以及down显然指的是我们的朋友的行为。其他选项均与文意相差甚远。此外，第二段出现的behavior也给予解题提示。74d 解析：空格后的down给予解题提示。down与前句的up相互呼应，说明两个when引导的句子互为转折关系。a项for引导原因从句，b项provided和c项unless引导条件状语从句。75b 解析：第74题空格前的positively给予解题提示。此外，本段第二句出现的negative也强烈暗示此处应选b项。76c 解析：a项fixed意为“固定的，不变的”；b项granted意为“不错，承认”；c项given意为“特定的”：d项driven意为“迫切的”。根据句意，应选c项given。句首的similarly和句末的with that mood state给予解题提示。空格处所在的短语意为“相类似的是，消费者处于某种特定情绪之中时”。77d 解析：根据空格后的介词with可知，所填的词必须能与其搭配使用。a项insistent为insist的形容词。与介词on搭配，意为“坚信的”；b项resistant为resist的形容词，与介词to搭配，意为“对具有抵抗力”；c项persistent为persist的形容词，与介词in搭配，意为持续的。只有d项consistent是与介词with搭配的。be consistent with意为“(与)一致，符合”，又如：his story is not consistent with the facts78b 解析：前一句所出现的consumers给予强烈提示。此外，根据常识可知，对商品进行评头品足的应当是消费者，而不是商人、零售商或制造商，故选b项。79c 解析：根据consumers in a positive mood可知，空格处应填一个褒义词。a项casual意为“偶然的”；b项serious意为“严肃的”；d项critical意为“重要的”，它们均为中性词语。c项favorable意为“有利的赞同的”，符合逻辑也符合句意。80a 解析：b项however意为“然而，可是”；c项nevertheless意为“然而，不过”都可表示转折；d项otherwise意为“否则，不然”，表示相反，均不符合句意。从空格前后两个句子的语义上看，这儿应是递进关系。a项moreover意为“并且，此外”，符合要求。81d 解析：空格后“消费者的记忆”应为空格处所填的词的宾语。四个选项中只有d项enhance能与a consumers memory搭配。此处，enhance作“增强提高”解。又如：the attractiveness of the book is much enhanced by mark stevens drawings82b 解析：下一句所举的例子给予解题提示。b项readily意为“容易地”，例如：the book can readily be bought anywhere本句意为“情绪似乎很容易受促销手段的影响”。a项rarely意为“几乎不”，c项currently意为“当前”d项cautiously意为“谨慎地”，都不符合文意。83a解析：空格后的of music限定包括空格在内的前面三个词。空格前的rhythm和pitch给出提示。the rhythm，pitch and volume of music意为“音乐的节奏、音调和音量”。a项volume意为“体积，容量，音量”，符合文意；b项speed意为“速度”；c项step意为“步伐，阶段”：d项band意为“乐队，波段”，均不符合文意。84c 解析：表示时间的量，即多长时间用amount。a项extent意为“程度”；b项scope意为“范围”；d项range意为“范围”。85c 解析：空格后为不定式。四个选项中只有a项capacities与c项intentions一般接不定式作定语。但是capacity作“能力，容量”解。例如：the studentsreasoning capacity must be developed不符合文意。b项facilities意为“设施”，不符合文意；d项reflections意为“反射。反思”，通常与介词of搭配，也不能选。86a 解析：根据语境可知，广告影响消费者的情绪，而消费者的情绪反过来，可以影响他们对商品的反应。in depth意为“深入地”，in total意为“总共”。in detail意为“详细地”，均不符合文意。a项in turn意为“反过来”，符合文意。test 3【cet-4：2007.6】an earthquake hit kashmir on oct. 8, 2005. it took some
