【解析】36.考查形容词辨析。A选项possible“可能的；合理的；合适的”；B选项adequate“充足的；适当的；胜任的”；C选项potential“潜在的；可能的”；D选项capable“能干的；能胜任的”。由前一句scientistshavebeentestingasubstancecalledinterferon“科学家们一直在测试一种叫作干扰素的物质”，可知这一物质还在测试中，并未得出确切结果，所以能否成为wonderdrug“特效药”只是一种可能。possible和potential都有可能的意思。potential一般是可以发展成某种东西或在未来能够被发展，具体指潜能方面上的。possible一般指能够做到的可能性。因此A选项符合题意。

37.考查固定搭配。A选项time“时间；时代”；B选项stage“阶段；舞台”；C选项date“日期；约会”；D选项period“期间；经期”。由空格后thenewdrughasprovokednonegativereactionofsufficientsignificance“这种新药还没有引起足够的负面反应”，可知这里指从过去到现在的这段时间内，新药并未引起足够的负面反应。固定搭配todate“迄今为止”。因此C选项符合题意。

38.考查动词辨析。A选项determine“决定；判定；限定”；B选项discourage“阻止；使气馁”；C选项decrease“减少；减小”；D选项disclose“公开；揭露”。因为迄今为止，这种新药还没有产生影响很大的副作用，新药的使用只是对一部分有需求的人而言的，所以这里应该是指不会阻止它的使用。因为这里并没有说使用者的数量，所以可以排除C选项。因此B选项符合题意。

39.考查名词辨析。A选项uniqueness“独特性；独一无二”；B选项peculiarity“特性；怪癖”；C选项feature“特色，特征；容貌”；D选项scarcity“不足；稀缺”。结合第一段末尾句Butinspiteofitssuccess,lastyearonlyonegramwasproducedintheentireworld.“但尽管取得了成功，去年全世界只生产了一克。”由此可知特效药是非常稀缺的，所以第二段承接第一段的内容，开始分析造成稀缺的原因。因此D选项符合题意。

40.考查动词辨析。A选项treating“治疗；对待”；B选项producing“生产；引起；生育”；C选项operating“操作；经营”；D选项handling“处理；操作”。句意：一种特殊的蛋白质，干扰素从一种动物中产生，不能用于……另一种动物。空格后的信息Inotherwords“换句话说”，totreathumanbeings“去治疗人类”，意味着两句的动词一致。因此A选项符合题意。

41.考查形容词辨析。A选项potent“有效的；强有力的”；B选项slight“轻微的；少量的”；C选项obvious“明显的；显著的”；D选项obscure“不清楚的；不著名的”。句意：幸运的是，这种药物是非常……，每次给每个病人的剂量都很小。药品使用的剂量越小越能够说明它更加强效。因此A选项符合题意。

42.考查逻辑关系。A选项However“然而；但是”；B选项Moreover“而且；此外”；C选项Hence“因此”；D选项Instead“反而”。空格前Unlikeantibiotics,interferondoesnotattackgermsdirectly.“与抗生素不同，干扰素不直接攻击病菌。”与空格后itmakesunaffectedcellsresistanttoinfection.“它让未受影响的细胞抵抗感染。”，根据逻辑关系可知主动攻击与保护是相反的，因此D选项符合题意。

43.考查动词辨析。A选项motivate“刺激；使有动机”；B选项prevent“预防；阻止”；C选项strike“打击；罢工”；D选项eliminate“消除；排除”。空格前一句itmakesunaffectedcellsresistanttoinfection“它让未受影响的细胞抵抗感染”，也即是阻止未受影响细胞免受感染。因此and连接的并列句中的动词词义应与前一句保持一致。因此B选项符合题意。

44.考查形容词辨析。A选项restrictive“限制的；约束的”；B选项dramatic“戏剧的；急剧的；引人注目的”；C选项probable“很可能的；可信的”；D选项crucial“重要的；决断的”。句意：正如你可能得出的结论，干扰素最……用途之一是治疗癌症。后一句补充说到汉斯•斯特兰德博士是瑞典著名的卡罗林斯卡研究所的研究医生，他已经用这种新药治疗了一百多名癌症患者。由此可知，干扰素对于治疗癌症有重要用途。因此D选项符合题意。

45.考查介词辨析。A选项With“用；随着”；B选项For“因为；为了”；C选项Among“在……之中”；D选项Within“在……之内”。由空格后的agroupofselectedpatients“一组挑选的病人”，与之后的half“一半（病人）”与theotherhalf“另一半（病人）”，可知是在一群病人之中，分组进行测试。因此C选项符合题意。

46.考查动词辨析。A选项sustained“维持；忍受；支持”；B选项endured“忍耐；容忍”；C选项prepared“准备；使适合；起草”；D选项undergone“经历；经受”。句意：在一组……晚期癌症手术的患者中，一半接受传统治疗，另一半接受干扰素治疗。sustain，undergo，endure都有忍受的意思。undergo一般指忍受治疗。endure一般指长期努力忍耐痛苦、不幸、困难。sustain一般指经历一些不好的事情，常指承受伤害失败等。根据空格后surgicalprocedures“外科手术”可知其一般搭配为undergoasurgicalprocedures“接受外科手术”，句子使用的是过去完成时，因此需要动词的过去分词形式，即undergone。因此D选项符合题意。

47.考查名词辨析。A选项existence“存在；生存”；B选项treatment“治疗；疗法；处理”；C选项survival“幸存；幸存者，残存物”；D选项growth“增长；发展；生长”。连接前一句可知这里还是在讲advancedcancer“癌症晚期”的治疗，空格后rate“比率”的对应知这里应是指“幸存率”，因此C选项符合题意。

48.考查固定搭配。A选项weighed“权衡；称重”；B选项balanced“平衡；使相称”；C选项differentiated“区分；区别”；D选项compared“比较；对比”。句意：在接受干扰素治疗的患者中，70%的人能活过3年，而接受……的患者中只有10%到30%的人能活过3年。由此可知这里是在讲两种治疗方法幸存率的对比。固定搭配：ascomparedwith“与……相比”。因此D选项符合题意。

49.考查逻辑关系。A选项original“原来的；开始的；首创的”；B选项conventional“传统的；常见的；惯例的”；C选项exceptional“异常的，例外的”；D选项desirable“可取的；值得拥有的”。由空格前thosewhoweretreatedwithinterferon“那些接受干扰素治疗的人”根据之前所提及到的两个治疗，halfweregivenconventionaltreatments“一半人被给予传统治疗”可知与之进行测试的是那些接受传统治疗的病人。因此B选项符合题意。

50.考查固定搭配。A选项way“方法；道路”；B选项track“轨道；足迹”；C选项course“科目；路线”；D选项route“路线；航线”。course和route都有路线的意思，course多指（船、飞机、路或河流的）所经之路，强调过程的路线。route多指从起点到终点所采取的方法或路线，强调首尾的路线。句意：在美国，一个由美国癌症协会支持的大型项目正在……。固定搭配：underway“进行中”，因此A选项符合题意。

3.单选题

Thegroom'shandcaressedthesoftmaneofthehorse.

问题1选项

A.provoked

B.combed

C.struck

D.fondled

【答案】D

【解析】根据句意可知，caressed指的是“爱抚，抚摸”。provoked激起，挑衅；combed梳理；struck罢工，打击；fondled抚摸，爱抚。选项D与之意思相近。

4.单选题

Believeitornot,lastyearMattearned（）hisbrother,whohasabetterpositioninabigcompany.

问题1选项

A.astwicemuchas

B.twiceasmuchas

C.astwicemuchas

D.asmuchtwiceas

【答案】B

【解析】考查倍数的表达。倍数应放于asmuchas之前，所以选项B正确。

5.单选题

Alltheflights（

）becauseofthesnowstorm,wehadtotakethetraininstead.

问题1选项

A.werecanceled

B.hadbeencanceled

C.havingcanceled

D.havingbeencanceled

【答案】D

【解析】句意:所有航班因暴风雪都被取消，我们不得不改乘火车。

语法题。考查独立主格结构。题干后半句已经完整,所以前半句是独立主格结构,排除A,B。由于动作发生在“改乘火车”之前,而且是“被取消”,所以用havingbeencanceled。

6.单选题

ThomasJefferson’sachievementsasanarchitectrivalhiscontributions（）apolitician.

问题1选项

A.such

B.than

C.as

D.more

【答案】C

【解析】考查固定句式。As…as…“与……一样”。句意：托马斯•杰斐逊作为建筑师的成就与他作为政治家的贡献不相上下。因此C选项正确。

7.单选题

Onenteringtheroom,he（

）hiseyesrounditbutsawnothingstrange.

问题1选项

A.jerked

B.flung

C.tossed

D.cast

【答案】D

【解析】动词辨析题。A选项jerk“猛拉”；B选项fling“掷，抛”；C选项toss“抛，投”；D选项cast“投掷”。选项B，C，D都要投掷的意思，但只有选项D能与后面的round搭配使用，castround意为“寻找”，句意：一进房间，他就环视四周（寻找），但没有发现什么奇怪的东西。选项D符合句意。

8.单选题

TheEuropeanunion,inparticular,Germany,aresearchingopportunitiestohelpUkraine（）itseconomy.

问题1选项

A.spray

B.sponsor

C.stiffen

D.stabilize

【答案】D

【解析】考查动词词义辨析。A选项spray表示“喷射”；B选项sponsor表示“赞助，发起”；C选项stiffen表示“变硬，变猛烈”；D选项stabilize表示“稳固，安定”。由句意可知，欧盟，尤其是德国，正在寻找机会帮助乌克兰稳定经济。因此，stabilize的词义最符合句意，故本题正确答案为D选项。

9.单选题

Heresented（

）towait.Heexpectedtheminister（

）

himatonce.

问题1选项

A.tobeasked,tosee

B.beingasked,tosee

C.tobeasked,seeing

D.beingasked,seeing

【答案】B

【解析】考查固定搭配。句意：他憎恨等待。他希望总理马上见他。resented后面一般直接接名词或者动词的现在分词形式；expect后面一般接不定式，所以答案选B。

10.单选题

Smallasitis,theantisasmuchacreatureas（

）allotheranimalsonearth.

问题1选项

A.are

B.do

C.is

D.have

【答案】A

【解析】考查语法中的主谓一致。Smallasitis是一个倒装句，是由as引导的让步状语从句，正常语序应为asitissmall，而theantisas...as...第二个as后是一个倒装句，主语为allotheranimals，因此谓语动词应为are。故本题正确答案为A。句意：蚂蚁虽小，但它是和地球上其它动物一样的生物。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:D

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:A

第6题:B

第7题:D

【解析】1.根据第一段的第一句“therehasbeenaclearlydiscernibletrend,especiallyamongthegrowinggroupofcollegestudents,towardearlymarriage.”可知,早婚是一个明显的趋势,所以选项C符合原文。

2.根据最后一段第三句“Satisfactorymarriagesaredeterminednotbychronology,butbytheemotionalmaturityofthepartners.”令人满意的婚姻不是由时间顺序决定的,而是由伴侣的情感成熟度决定的。选项D符合原文。

3.根据第二段第三句“Thesadfactisthatmarriageseldomsolvesone'sproblems;moreoften,itmerelyaccentuatesthem.”可悲的事实是,婚姻几乎不会解决一个人的问题；更多的时候,它只是在强调问题。也就是使问题变得更激烈,所以选项C正确。

4.根据第二段倒数第二句“TheirexpectationsofmarriageareessentiallyUtopian...”可知选项A正确。

5.根据第一段最后两句可知,情感成熟与年龄无关,有的人很早就实现了,有的人从未实现过。由此可知,选项A符合原文。其他选项均表述太绝对,所以不正确。

6.根据第二段第一句“Manystudentsaremarryingasanescape,notonlyfromanunsatisfyinghomelife,butalsofromtheirownpersonalproblemsofisolationandloneliness.”许多学生把结婚作为一种逃避,不仅是为了逃避不满意的家庭生活,也是为了逃避自己的孤立和孤独。由此推断,年轻人早婚的原因有很多。选项B正确。

7.根据最后一段倒数第二句“ifitisenteredintowithrelativelyfewillusionsorfewfalseexpectations,andifitiseconomicallyfeasible,whynot?”可知,选项D与原文描述一致。

12.单选题

B.hasattended

C.attends

D.attended

【答案】A

【解析】考查虚拟语气。表示“建议、要求、命令”等意思的词相关的从句谓语部分要用should+动词原形，should可以省略，因此选A。

句意：最终的建议是试用期雇员一个学期参见一次特殊夜校学习。

13.单选题

）bylungcancerthannon-smokers.

问题1选项

A.gripped

B.stricken

C.attacked

D.ravaged

【答案】B

【解析】考查动词辨析。A选项grip“紧握，抓牢”；B选项strike“击打，碰撞”，指灾难或疾病的爆发；C选项attack“攻击，进攻”，指暴力性的袭击或者战争的攻击；D选项ravage“毁坏”。由lungcancer（肺癌）可知选B符合逻辑搭配。句意：烟瘾大的人患肺癌的几率是不吸烟者的20倍。

【答案】第1题:A

第2题:D

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:C

【解析】第1题:细节事实题。第一段指出:scienceandtechnologyseemedtooffersolutionstoalmosteveryproblem(科学与技术似乎几乎为所有问题提供了解决方案)。由此可知，A项“解决几乎所有存在的问题”正确。

第2题:判断推理题。第一段指出:TwoworldwarsandaGreatDepressionrockedtheconfidenceofmanypeoplethatscientificexpertisealonecouldcreateaprosperousandorderedworld(两次世界大战和一次大萧条动摇了许多人的信心，他们曾认为只有科学知识才能创造一个繁荣有序的世界)。以及:AfterWorldWarII,theacademicworldturnedwithnewenthusiasmtohumanisticstudies,whichseemedtomanyscholarsthebestwaytoensurethesurvivalofdemocracy(第二次世界大战后，学术界对人文主义研究产生了新的热情，这在许多学者看来是确保民主生存的最佳途径)。由此可知，D项“他们认识到仅有科学和技术不能保证一个更好的世界”正确。

第3题:细节事实题。第二段指出:ThereisconsiderableandjustifiedconcernthattheUnitedStatesisfallingbehindmuchoftherestofthedevelopedworldintheseessentialdisciplines(在这些基本学科方面，美国正落后于许多其他发达国家，这个担忧是相当合理的)。因此C项“美国在STEM学科上正落后”正确。

第4题:细节事实题。第三段指出:Humanisticdisciplinesareseriouslyunderfunded,notjustbythegovernmentandthefoundationsbutbyacademicinstitutionsthemselves(政府、基金会和学术机构本身为人文学科所提供的资金都严重不足)。因此A项“资金不足”正确。

第5题:判断推理题。最后一段指出:Buttrytoimagineourworldaswellwithouttheremarkableworksthathavedefinedourcultureandvalues(然而，也试着去想象我们的世界没有定义我们文化和价值的引人注目的作品)。由此可知，作者认为人文主义研究重要是因为人文主义思想帮助定义了我们的文化和价值观。故选C。

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A选项credulous“轻信的；因轻信而产生的”；believable“可信的”；trustworthy“可靠的；可信赖的”；sophisticated“复杂的；精致的；久经世故的”。句意：玛丽如此……，以至于她会相信任何告诉她的事。词组sothat“如此……以至于……”由后半句她会相信你和她说的任何事情，显然易见她是轻信他人的，故选A。
