Theaddictivenatureofonlinegamblinghasforcedmany______garnerstoseektreatment.

问题1选项

A.sedative

B.fortified

C.compulsive

D.impulsive

【答案】C

【解析】考查词义辨析。A选项sedative“镇静剂”；B选项fortified“（在物质或精神上）加强”；C选项compulsive“欲罢不能的”；D选项impulsive“易冲动的”。句意：在线赌博成瘾的基本特征迫使许多______的赌徒寻求治疗。这里的赌徒对赌博上瘾，不能控制自己停下赌博，C选项compulsive“欲罢不能的”形容他们符合题意。因此C选项正确。

2.单选题

TheMedalofNationalScienceis[A]thehighest[B]awardscientificthatcanbe[C]givento[D]anyindividualintheUnitedStates.

问题1选项

A.thehighest

B.awardscientific

C.given

D.any

【答案】B

【解析】【考查点】形容词语序。

【解题思路】award是名词，scientific是形容词，形容词应该放在名词前面，所以正确语序是scientificaward（科学奖项）。该题选择B项。

【句意】国家科学奖章是美国授予任何个人的最高科学奖。

3.单选题

Thisistheseventhyear___thatthey’vewonthecup.

问题1选项

A.insubstance

B.insuccession

C.insuspension

D.insequence

【答案】B

【解析】考查固定搭配。A选项insubstance“实质上；基本上；事实上”；B选项“接连地；连续地”；C选项insuspension“悬浮中”；D选项insequence“依次；逐一”。句意：这是他们___第七年获得冠军。本句表达“连续第七年”，因此B选项正确。

问题1选项

A.whichrightpermitted...whichinterestprescribed

B.whatrightpermits...whichinterestprescribed

C.whatrightpermits...whatinterestprescribes

D.whichrightpermitted...whatinterestprescribes

【答案】C

【解析】考查宾语从句。由选项和空格前动词短语bringtogether“使结合”可知此题考点，with连接的两个部分作宾语。which和what都可引导宾语从句，但what指代的对象没有限定范围，而which受限制。由句意判断此处应表示“权利允许的一切以及利益要求的一切”，因此都应用what引导。C选项符合题意。

5.单选题

Hehadwanteda25%raiseinpay,butaftertalkingtohisboss,hedecidedthata5%raisewould_______.

问题1选项

A.suffice

B.modify

C.gratify

D.delight

【答案】A

【解析】考查动词辨析。A选项suffice“使满足（表示带有无奈情绪的满足）；足够……用；合格”；B选项modify“修改，修饰；更改”；C选项gratify“使满足（表示超出预想的满足）；使满意，使高兴”；D选项delight“使高兴；高兴”。句意：他本想得到25%的工资涨幅，但在同老板谈话后，他认为他不得不满足于5%的涨幅。因此A选项正确。

6.单选题

Much______IlikedMary,Ihatedthesuperiortonethatshesometimestookwithme.

问题1选项

A.while

B.as

C.since

D.for

【答案】B

【解析】考查让步状语从句。句意：我虽然很喜欢安东妮亚，但也很讨厌有时她对我的傲慢态度。由此可知空格处应填表让步的词，排除C选项和D选项。A选项while引导让步状语从句时，while相当于though／although，则该句语序应为：WhileIlikeMaryverymuch...，不符合题意，故排除A选项。B选项as引导的让步状语从句，句子要求用倒装结构，此时的as相当于though，但比though引导的让步状语从句语意更强烈，表现力更强。句子结构为：副词或动词原形＋as＋主语……，＋主句。因此B选项正确。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:D

第4题:A

第5题:C

【解析】1.判断推理题。根据第二段第一句“Competitioninthesocialhierarchyis,ofcourse,presentinbothgroups,butitislesstemperedbyco-operativeactioninthecaseofmonkeysandapes.当然，社会等级的竞争在两个群体中都存在，但在猴子和猿这两个群体当中，这种竞争较少因合作行为而缓和。”而且，在上一段的最后一句中也提及“Competitivenessanddominanceistheorderofthisday.竞争和统治才是现如今的规则”。由此可以推断出，它们都生活在一个竞争激烈的社会。所以选项D正确。

2.判断推理题。根据关键词“gorillas”定位到第三段。第三段首句提及“因为灵长类动物的食物来源在它们周围，所以它们几乎不需要走很远的路。”野生大猩猩是现存灵长类中最大的一种，而且下文还提及，灵长类动物会生活在一个相当明确的家庭范围内。由此可推断，大猩猩它们会在有限的区域内从一个地方移动到另一个地方，所以选项B符合原文。

3.细节事实题。根据第三段的倒数第二句“theinteractionbetweenonetroopandthenextwillbelessdefensiveandlessaggressivethanisthecasewithcarnivores.与食肉动物相比，一个群体和另一个群体之间的互动会降低防御性和攻击性。”也就说，灵长类动物对其他群体中的同类，如猴子或猿类，不会表现出很大的敌意，所以选项D符合原文。

4.判断推理题。原文最后一段提及，灵长类动物身上没有跳蚤是和跳蚤的生命周期相关。这种昆虫并不在寄主的身体上产卵，而是在寄主睡觉的地方的碎屑中产卵。至少在跳蚤生命的第一个月里，它是与宿主隔绝的。后面又以猴子进行了举例，即使有几只游离的跳蚤碰巧跳到其中一只猴子身上并成功交配，它们的卵也会留在这个灵长类动物群体的身后，当蛹孵化时，没有宿主在“家里”能够继续这种关系了。也就是说，当跳蚤发育完全后，通常已经不在灵长类动物所在的位置了，所以选项A符合原文。

5.判断推理题。根据原文第二段的内容“社会等级的竞争在两个群体中都存在，但在猴子和猿这两个群体当中，这种竞争较少因合作行为而缓和。复杂的、协调的动作也是不必要的：喂食动作的顺序不需要以如此复杂的方式串在一起。这种灵长类动物可以现挣现吃，满足目前对食物的需要。”由此可知，灵长类动物获得食物并不像狼那么困难，所以像狼这样的群体捕猎者身上所表现出的合作精神在灵长类世界中是很少见的。选项C正确。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:D

第3题:A

第4题:D

第5题:A

【解析】1.细节事实题。由文章第一段中的Psychologistsviewthesubjecteitherasamatteroffrustrationorajoke.（心理学家把这个问题看作是一件沮丧的是或是一个笑话）可知A选项表述不正确；由第一段中的Butbeingdifferent,theypointouthurriedly,isnotthesameasbeingbetterorworse.（但他们急忙指出，不同并不等于好或坏）可知B选项表述不正确；由第三段中的Thisisthefirsttimethatastructuraldifferencehasbeenfoundbetweenthebrainsofwomenandmenanditmusthavesomesignificance.（这是第一次发现女性和男性大脑之间的结构差异，它必须具有一定的意义）可知D选项表述不正确。通过排除法排除A、B、D选项，因此选C。

2.细节事实题。由文章第三段中的Wetendtothinkthatitistheinfluenceofsocietythatproducesthesedifferences.（我们倾向于认为，正是社会的影响产生了这些差异）可知选D。

3.细节事实题。由文章倒数第二段中的Butitisn’tallthateasytoexplaintheactualdifferencesbetweenskillsofmenandwomenonthisbasis.（但要在此基础上解释男女技能的实际差异并非易事）可知选A。

4.细节事实题。由文章最后一段中的andwecannotunderstandhowthetwohalvesinteractviathecorpuscallosum.Butthisstrikingdifferencemusthavesomeeffectand,becausethedifferenceisinthepartsofthebraininvolvedinintellect,weshouldbelookingfordifferencesinintellectualprocessing（我们也不知道这两部分是如何通过胼胝体相互作用的。但这种显著的差异肯定会有一定的影响，因为这种差异存在于大脑中与智力有关的部分，我们应该寻找智力加工的差异）可知选D。

5.主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了男性和女性的结构存在差别，科学家对这种差别所做的研究，因此A选项“概述脑结构的研究成果”符合题意。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:A

第3题:C

第4题:D

【解析】1.细节事实题。由文章第一段中的onlyreallyunifyinginthefaceofenmityfromnon-Gypsies（只有在非吉普赛人的威胁面前才能真正团结起来）可知D选项“面对外部威胁”符合题意。

2.细节事实题。由文章第二段中的InEuropetheirpersecutionbythegadjebeganquickly,withthechurchseeingheresyintheirfortune-tellingandthestateseeinganti-socialbehaviorintheirnomadism.InmorerecenttimestheGypsieswerecaughtupinNaziethnichysteria,andperhapshalfamillionperishedintheHolocaust.（在欧洲，非吉普赛人对他们的迫害开始得很快，教会认为他们的算命行为是异端邪说，而政府认为他们的游牧生活是反社会行动。在更近的历史中，吉普赛人被陷入纳粹党歇斯底里的种族迫害中，大约50万人死于大屠杀）可知吉普赛人受到了教堂、政府以及纳粹的迫害，因此选A。

3.细节事实题。由文章最后一段中的WithveryfewexceptionsGypsieshaveexpressednogreatdesireforacountrytocalltheirown—unlikeJews（除了极少数例外，吉普赛人并没有表达出对一个国家的强烈愿望—不像犹太人那样）可知吉普赛人与犹太人的主要区别在于对身份的认同，因此选C。

4.推理判断题。由文章第一段中的Whatisknownnowfromcluesinthevariousdialectsoftheirlanguage,Romany,isthattheycamefromnorthernIndiatotheMiddleEastathousandyearsago（从他们的语言罗曼语的各种方言中的线索可知，一千年前他们从印度北部来到中东）可知D选项“印度北部曾经有一个吉普赛人国家”表示不正确，只能推测吉普赛人从印度北部而来。

10.填空题

11.单选题

问题1选项

A.encounter

B.blend

C.merge

D.adapt

【答案】B

【解析】动词辨析。句意：贝丝在她的访问期间努力地（）当地人中。

encounter遭遇，邂逅，遇到；blend混合，协调，融入；merge合并，使合并，吞，没；adapt适应，改变。

选项Bblendinwith为固定搭配，表示“融入，融合”，符合句意。

12.单选题

）oferrorsismorelikelytobeusefulthanistheestablishmentofprobabletruth.

问题1选项

A.formulation

B.correction

C.detection

D.accumulation

【答案】C

【解析】考查名词词义辨析。formulation“规划；配方”；correction“改正”；detection“侦查；探测”；accumulation“积聚，堆积物”。句意：从科学研究上来说，虽然有证据支撑的报告比不可靠的假说更令人满意，但是事实上与发现错误相比确立可能的真理可能更有用。由discreditedhypotheses“名誉扫地的假设”可推断应该是发现不可靠假说的错误，故C项正确。

【答案】第1题:A

第2题:D

第3题:C

第4题:B

第5题:D

【解析】1.根据第一段的第三句“OnlyrecentlyhasLatinAmericabeguntoreceivesomeattentionaswell.”选项A与原文不符，所以本题选A。

2.根据关键词定位到第二段的一二句“TheNazca“lines”ofPeruwerediscoveredinthe1930s.Theselinesaredeeplycarvedintoaflat,stonyplain,...”选项D符合原文。

3.根据第二段的三四句“Seenatgroundlevel,...—meaningfromanaircraft.”从地面上看，感觉杂乱无章，毫无意义。图像太大所以只能在1000英尺的高度上观看——也就是在飞机上。由此可以推断，越高看得越清晰，选项C正确。

4.根据第三段的第一句“TodaythereisanewandheightenedinterestintheNazcalines.ItisdirectresultofthecreationoftheInternet.”现在人们对Nazca线条有了更多的兴趣，它是因互联网出现而导致的直接结果。所以选项B符合原文。

5.根据最后一段的内容可知,作者认为互联网能够帮助解开更多的未知之谜，这是一个正确的方向。所以，作者的态度是积极乐观的，选项D正确。cautious谨慎的；pessimistic悲观的；uncertain不确定的。

【解析】1.细节事实题。由题干可以定位到文章第二段“Intheirsearchforprecision,scientistshaveturnedtoatomicclocksthatdependonvariousvibratingatomsormoleculestosupplytheir‘ticking’.”，中文翻译为：在追求精确性过程中，科学家们已经转向于原子钟，它依赖于各种振动的原子或分子，以提供它们的“滴答声”。综合可知，B选项符合题意，科学家们希望原子钟更加准确。

2.细节事实题。由题干可以定位到文章第三段中“TheheartofthisAtomichronisacesiumatomthatvibrates9.2billiontimesasecondwhenheatedtothetemperatureofboilingwater.”，中文翻译为：这个原子钟的中心是一个铯原子，当加热到沸水的温度时，它每秒振动92亿次。因此，A项“温度变化影响氨分子的振动速率”正确。

3.推理判断题。由题干可以定位到文章尾段“Placedinanorbitingsatellitemovingataspeedof18,000milesanhour,theclockcouldbroadcastitstimereadingtoagroundstation,wheretheywouldbecomparedwiththereadingsonasimilarmodel.”，中文翻译为：在以每小时18000英里的速度运行的轨道卫星中，时钟可以将其时间读数广播到地面站，并在地面站与类似模型上的读数进行比较。可以推测出C选项“原子钟在太空飞行中将起重要作用”。

4.词义猜测题。由题干关键词“vibration”可以定位到文中“Thisispossiblebecauseeachkindofatomormoleculehasitsowncharacteristicrateofvibration.”，中文翻译为：这是可能的，因为每种原子或分子都有其特有的……速率。以及“Thenitrogenatominammonia,forexample:vibratesor‘ticks’24billiontimesasecond.”，中文翻译为：例如，氨中的氮原子每秒……或“滴答”240亿次。可以得知A选项“振动”正确。

5.主旨大意题。通读全文可知文中主要介绍原子钟的计时精确度、特性和相关原理，以及它在天文领域的一些应用。推测出A选项“和平时期原子的使用”正确。
