加拿大移民条例虽不把英籍香港华人与其他英国殖民地人民一视同仁,然加拿大比美国较为关心香港移民却是千真万确的事。1962年,加拿大方面鉴于香港难民众多,在各方呼吁下,自动提出愿意接受香港方面100个家庭单位来加。多伦多《明星报》(TorontoStar)在3月23日的社论中还讥讽其为一种姿态罢了。其实,移民局早已着手调查,寻找符合条件并愿意赴加的家庭。还有一些组织和机构,如“教会联合总会”(GeneralCounciloftheUnitedChurch)于9月开会时曾大声疾呼加拿大应该容纳香港难民10000名。11月21日第一批来自香港的家庭抵加,至年底计有62个家庭单位,合共人数139名由港抵加。11月16日,贝尔宣布调查中国移民舞弊案结束。移民局长表示那些在加华人如愿归化入籍,手续将加以简化。反对党派、舆论界、加拿大华人团体一致拥护移民局的这项宣布。

【答案】第1题:B

第2题:A

第3题:D

第4题:B

第5题:C

【解析】1.推理判断题。题干要求推断美国53,000人死亡的原因。根据关键词fifty-threethousand定位到文章第一段最后一句可知,这些人的死因是由于exposuretosecondhandsmoke,即“暴露于二手烟中”,由此可以推断死亡者本人不抽烟,故B项“尽管他们不吸烟”正确。而A项“由于吸烟”和C项“因为他们的父母吸烟”明显错误;D选项“尽管他们的父母不抽烟”属于过度推断。因此本题正确答案为B项。

2.细节事实题。根据题干Non-smokers可定位到原文第二段第四句,再根据下一句...almostallofusbreathetobaccosmokeattimes,whetherwerealizeitornot可知,不管我们有没有意识到,我们几乎都吸入烟草的烟,所以非吸烟者身体受损的原因是“因为他们吸入有毒的烟”,故A项正确。B选项原文没有提及,C选项与第二段最后一句不符,故排除;D选项根据第二段第三句“甚至非吸烟者身体内有过量的这些化学物质”可以排除。

3.细节事实题。题干要求找出错误选项。A选项“非吸烟者也许会被动吸入二手烟”,根据常识可判断正确;根据第一段最后一句可知非吸烟者可能死于二手烟,所以B选项“有些非吸烟者可能因为吸二手烟而死于肺癌”正确;根据第二段almostallofusbreathetobaccosmokeattimes,whetherwerealizeitornot可知,C选项“我们都多多少少遭受二手烟的痛苦”正确;D选项“二手烟比抽烟本身伤害更大”在原文中并未提及,属于无中生有。因此本题答案为D项。

4.细节事实题。题干要求判断四个选项中哪一个不是二手烟对孩子的消极影响。根据题干定位至原文最后一段。由thesechildrenaresickmoreoftenthanthechildrenwholiveinhomeswherenoonesmokes可知,这些孩子比家里没有人吸烟的更容易生病,故A选项正确,可排除;B选项“他们更可能患心理疾病”在原文中并未提及。根据原文倒数第三句可知,C选项“孩子们长大了也会受二手烟的影响”正确,可排除。根据原文最后一句“父母吸烟的孩子长大后患肺癌的概率是父母不吸烟的孩子的两倍多”可知,D选项“一些非吸烟者可能由于二手烟死于肺癌”正确,可排除。故本题正确答案为B。

5.推理判断题。题干要求判断以下那种孩子受二手烟的伤害最大。根据关键词children定位至最后一段可知,“父母都抽烟的孩子患肺癌的风险更高”。A选项为“5岁以下生活在无人抽烟的家庭的孩子”;B选项为“5岁以下生活在父亲或母亲一方抽烟的家庭的孩子”;C选项为“5岁以下生活在父母都抽烟的家庭的孩子”;D选项“5岁以下不和父母一起生活的孩子”。因此,本题正确答案为C项。

12.单选题

Thereisno()tothehousefromthemainroad.

问题1选项

A.access

B.avenue

C.exposure

D.edge

【答案】A

【解析】考查名词辨析。access“通道,机会”;avenue“林荫大道,方法”;exposure“暴露”;edge“边缘”。句意:没有通道从主路通往那个房子。A项符合题意。

13.填空题

I’msurprisedthatshehasagreedtomarryJohn.Iknewthathe(1)goingtopropose,butI(2)hertosayno.I(3)whatledhertoaccepthisoffer.She’scertainlynotinlovewithhim!

【答案】1.was

2.considered

3.wonder

【解析】1.固定搭配。begoingtodo打算做…,前面的谓语动词knew用的过去式,因此这里也用过去式was。

2.固定搭配。

considersb.todosth.认为某人会…。

3.语义题。句意:我在想是什么让她决定接受他的求婚的。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:C

【解析】1.根据文章第一段最后一句‘Thereistheinevitablepushandpulloftimetables,anxietyabouthavingenoughtimewiththeboys,andparticularlyaboutwhetherwe'reequippingthemtocopewiththeacademicandsocialpressuresthatlieahead.时间安排不可避免地会带来压力,孩子们会因为有足够的时间而焦虑,尤其是我们是否准备好让他们应付未来的学业和社会压力。’确定D选项‘要使孩子们适应各种压力是很困难的’符合题意。

2.根据文章第二段第二句话‘threequarters(75percent)feltthatlongworkinghoursmadeitdifficulttospendenoughtimewiththeirfamily.四分之三(75%)的人认为长时间的工作让他们很难有足够的时间和家人在一起。’确定C选项‘四分之三’符合题意。

3.根据文章倒数第二段确定TimGill的观点是当今的孩子们的压力比之前的大得多,所以C选项符合题意,正确。

4.根据文章最后一句‘Happily,therearesignsthatsomeparents,schoolsandevenpoliticiansarenowstartingtowiseup.高兴地是,已经有兆头显示有一些父母和学校甚至政治家已经意识到这个问题‘确定A选项‘在这个问题上看到一些变化是乐观的’正确。

【答案】D

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:A

【解析】第1题:细节事实题。第一段最后一句指出:Justtomaketheexplanationassimpleaspossible,supposescienceisdefinedasclassifiedknowledge(facts)(为了尽可能简化该定义,假设科学被定义为分类知识(事实))。因此D项“分类知识”正确。

第2题:细节事实题。根据题干关键词theconstructionofamicroscope定位至最后一段:Somediscoveriesseemsosimplethatoneisamazedtheywerenotmadeyearsago;however,oneshouldrememberthattheconstructionofthemicroscopehadtoprecedethediscoveryofthecell(有些发现似乎如此简单,以至于人们惊奇地发现,它们在多年前没有被发现;然而,人们应该记住,显微镜的构造必须先于细胞的发现)。由此可知,B项“一定先于导致细胞的发现的应用科学”正确。

第3题:细节事实题。第四段指出:One,aimedatsatisfyingcuriosity,isreferredtoaspurescience.Theotherisaimedatusingknowledgeforspecificpurposes---forinstance,improvinghealth,raisingstandardsofliving,orcreatingnewconsumerproducts.Inthiscaseknowledgeisputtoeconomicuse,suchanapproachisreferredtoasappliedscience(一种是为了满足好奇心,被称为纯科学。另一个是为了将知识用于特定目的,例如改善健康、提高生活水平或创造新的消费品。在这种情况下,知识被用于经济用途,这种方法被称为应用科学),因此C项“纯科学”正确。

第4题:判断推理题。A:做理论研究的科学家不必为忽视其发现的应用方面而受到指责。最后一段最后一句指出:Thehostofscientistsdedicatingtheirlivestopuresciencearenotapologeticaboutignoringthepracticalsideoftheirdiscoveries(许多致力于纯科学的科学家并不为忽视他们发现的实际一面而感到抱歉),由此可知A项正确。B:现在很少有人对科学的含义有任何概念。第一段第一句指出:Thewordscienceisheardsoofteninmoderntimesthatalmosteverybodyhassomenotionofitsmeaning(科学这个词在现代是经常听到的,几乎每个人都对它的含义有一些概念),由此可知B项错误。C:在科学领域,不难辨别虚实。第二段第一句指出:Eveninthetruesciencesdistinguishingfactfromfictionisnotalwayseasy(即使在真正的科学中,区分事实和虚构并不总是容易的),因此C项错误。D:有实践头脑的人能理解纯科学的定义和目标。第五段第一句指出:Sometimespractical-mindedpeoplemissthepointofpurescienceinthinkingonlyofitsimmediateapplicationforeconomicrewards(有时,有实践头脑的人忽视了纯科学的意义,而只考虑即时的经济回报),由此可知D项错误。

第5题:主旨大意题。文章第一段至第四段探讨科学的本质,最后一段探讨科学家的本质,因此A项“科学和科学家的本质”最适合做文章标题。

【答案】第1题:D

第2题:B

第3题:C

第4题:A

第5题:C

【解析】41.推理判断题。定位在第二段的最后一句casesofhiringdiscriminationoftengoundetected.(许多年龄歧视没有被发现)说出了事实,接下来第三段开始说明原因。根据第三段的最后一句Forthemostpart,othergroupsdonotsuebecausethecostsofalawsuitoutweighthepotentialbenefits.(其他群体不提出诉讼主要是因为诉讼费远远超过潜在的利益。)由此可知,许多年龄歧视的案例未被发现主要是因为提出诉讼的价格高,而给本人带来的利益也有限。因此D选项“打赢官司的好处可能不足以支付费用”正确,符合题意。A选项“年龄歧视法是最近才出台的”,B选项“除白人外,其他受歧视的群体不起诉”根据原文Mostofthosewho
