问题1选项

A.depress

B.default

C.degrade

D.deteriorate

【答案】C

【解析】考察动词词义辨析。degrade“降低，降级，退化”；deteriorate“恶化，变坏”；default“拖欠，不履行义务”；depress“压抑，使沮丧”。根据句意“科学家对于生物体随着年龄增长会____是必然结果这种说法表示怀疑”，可知空格处应该填表示“退化”此类意思的词，degrade强调功能的退化，deteriorate强调身体状况的恶化，显然选项C符合题意。

【答案】第1题:B

第2题:A

第3题:A

第4题:D

第5题:C

【解析】1.语义推测题。由题干关键词“Butangerisespeciallyendemictowork”定位到文章第一段“…peoplegetangryatanaverageof10to14timesaday.Butangerisespeciallyendemictowork.Ifyouhaveajob,you’reguaranteedtogetangry.”可知人们平均每天会生气10到14次。但是生气在工作中尤其普遍。如果你在工作，你肯定会生气。可判断出愤怒在工作中是不可避免的，会令人感到不适。故选项B符合题意。

2.语义推测题。由题干关键词“Upwouldhavegonemyhand”定位到文章第二段“Upwouldhavegonemyhand,hadIbeenintheroomandheardthatlastremark.AndIwouldhaverespectfullydisagreed.”，可知如果我当时在房间里，听到最后两句话，我也会举起我的手。并且会尊重性地表达我的反对意见。可判断出作者会举手表示对这个观点的赞同。故选项A符合题意。

3.事实细节题。由题干关键词“Anger-managementexperts...guidelines”定位到文章第四段“Anger-managementexpertsdoofferafewcommon-senseguidelinestominimizework-relatedanger:don’tletitfaster;don’tlookforsnubsinwhatarepurelyinnocentincidents;don’tgetcaughtupinotherpeople’sgripes;ifyoustarttolosecontrol,takeabreak.”，可知愤怒情绪管理专家确实提供了一些常识性的指导方法来抑制工作愤怒：不要太快；不要因为一些平白无故的困难而怠慢工作；不要被别人的抱怨所困扰；如果情绪开始失控，休息一下。可判断出愤怒情绪管理专家提出的解决方法包括及时冷静下来并且寻找解决方法。选项A符合题意。

4.判断推理题。由题干关键词“ScienceandHealthwithKeytotheScriptures”定位到文章第九段“‘Man(includingwoman)istheoffspring,notofthelowest,butofthehighestqualitiesofMind,’wroteMaryBakerEddy,theauthorofScienceandHealthwithKeytotheScriptures.ThisdivineMind,orGod,isexpressingineachofusthese“highqualities”asourrealnature,respectfulandloving,andrevealingouractualrelationtooneanotherassonsanddaughtersofGod.”，可知玛丽•贝克•艾迪在书中提到男人（包括女人）不是低等人的后代，都是最具智慧的神的后代。这个神圣的上帝，在我们每个人身上体现出一些高尚的品质，这些品质都是我们的本性——尊敬和爱，并显示我们作为上帝的儿女彼此之间的真实关系。可判断出作者在书中想给读者表达出来的意思是：人类是上帝创造的，具有高尚善良的品质；人的真实本性是像上帝一样恭敬有礼貌的；我们都是上帝的后代，我们与他人的关系是情同手足，所以没有理由产生冲突。故选项D符合题意。

5.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“So,insteadofbracingforashowdownwithafellowworker,youcanarriveatworkfilledwiththeconvictionthatyouandyourcolleagues,clients,andcustomers,areallinherentlygood-natured—God-natured—theoffspringofatotallylovingcreator.You’recertaintohavehigher-expectations,morecompassion,morepatience.Arealpeacemakerattitude.”，可知你可以满怀信心地去工作，相信你和你的同事、客户、顾客都是天性善良的人，都是慈爱的造物主的后代。你肯定会有更高的期望值，更有同情心，更有耐心。会具有一种真正的和平主义者的处事态度。最后一段为全文的主旨段，可判断出作者认为我们应该提倡基督教的氛围，让每个人都觉得自己是上帝的儿女，人人平等，以减少工作场所的愤怒情绪。故选项C符合题意。

3.翻译题

问题1选项

A.aheadof

B.backof

C.independentof

D.abreastof

【答案】A

【解析】考查词组辨析。aheadof“在……之前”；backof“在……后面”；independentof“不受……支配的”；abreastof“保持与……并列”。句意：一些经济学家担心，股价……公司盈利，这在一定程度上让人想起上世纪80年代末日本股市崩盘前的情景。可知前半句应表示“股票价格超过了公司盈利”。因此A选项符合题意。

第20题:C

【解析】（1）考查形容词词义辨析。positive“积极的；真实的”；negative“消极的”；mild“温和的”；slight“轻微的”。空格处前面内容提到“世界上所有事物中，我最不喜欢的就是填表”，并且提到了原因，对填表有恐惧（horror），四个选项中，选项Apositive有“真实的”意思，“真实的恐惧”符合前后文情境，因此符合题意。

（2）考查动词词义辨析。attend“参加”；register“注册”；invite“邀请”；work“工作”。根据空格处后面的关键词eveningcourse“晚间课程”可以知道是“注册课程”，因此选项B符合题意。

（3）考查固定搭配。involvedoingsth.“涉及做某事”，因此可以排除选项A与B；由前面的“applying”,”booking”等可知此处不需要用完成时，所以选项C符合题意。

（4）考查词组辨析。空格处所在句子的大意是：现在几乎每处都需要提供关于个人生活和习惯的信息，而这些信息跟手头上的事情没有什么关系。inhand“手头上的”，所以选项B符合题意。

（5）考查固定搭配。beofinterestto“对……是有意义的，对……有趣的”。选项D符合题意。

（6）考查同义词词义辨析。prospective“未来的，预期的”；coming“即将发生的”；existing“目前的,现存的”；on-going“正在进行的,继续的”。从whenapplyingforajob可知是在“申请工作”，那么面对的是“将来的雇主”，选项A符合题意。

（7）考查should的用法。should常用在以why,how开头的疑问句中，因此选项C符合题意。

（8）考查动词词义辨析。bid“投标，出价”；invite“邀请，招待”；request“要求，请求”；require“要求，命令”。request是有礼貌的要求，而require有种强迫的意味，从后文的demand处可以看出require符合题意。

（9）考查固定搭配。putsth.tosb.“把（观点、建议）等告诉某人”，选项A符合题意。

（10）考查分词短语的用法。分词短语可以相当于一个时间状语，表示在做某事的过程中，发生某事或做某事。“面对问题”在文中是被动含义，表示作者是被迫来面对这样一些不愿意回答的问题，因此，应该用when+过去分词，选项B符合题意，如果是主动含义，则用现在分词。

（11）考查动词词义辨析。ensure“确保”，ensuresth,/that；insure“投保”；assure“保证；担保”，assuresb.ofsth.或者assuresb.（that）；reassure“使安心”。根据后文Iwas“delicate”可知，此处省略了that，选项C符合题意。

（12）考查固定搭配。contactlenses“隐形眼镜”，选项A符合题意。

（13）考查动词词义辨析。agree“同意”；connect“联系”；relate“相关”；apply“申请；使用”,applyto“适用于”。空格处所在句子的大意是：我戴着隐形眼镜，补着牙齿，但是也许“缺陷”这个词适用于我的性格。因此选项D符合题意。

（14）考查动词词义辨析。decline“下降；婉拒”；deny“否认”；admit“承认”；reject“拒绝”。空格处所在句子的大意是：我是不是会被猜测应该承认自己爱赌博，早上起不来呢？选项C符合题意。

（15）考查主谓一致。根据be动词are可以判断空格处应该填B，其他选项后面应该使用单数形式。

（16）考查逻辑关系。根据后面的“terrified”这个单词，可以推断出在作者眼里，找工作是件糟糕的事情，选项D符合题意。

（17）考查名词词义辨析。day“一天”；date“日期”；offer“提议；出价；录取通知书”。该句讲述作者在填写表格里“教育”这一栏，需要提供具体日期，选项B符合题意。

（18）考查名词词义辨析。declaration“宣布，公告，声明”;witness“证人，目击者”；publication“出版物，发表”：announcement“公告，宣告”。空格处所在句子的大意是：被表格底部那些如果填写错误声明吓到了的我，拼命去回想我之前通过了哪些考试，在哪些公司上过班。选项A符合题意。

（19）考查逻辑连词。前面提到拼命回想以前的经历，空格处后提到还是有一年或者两年的经历不太确定，两者是转折关系，因此选项D符合题意。

（20）考查固定搭配。leaveblank“留空格”，选项C符合题意。
