参考答案

1.lessless解析：文章第十自然段最后一句说世界生育状况调查表明在发展中国家只有较少数的夫妇生育子女少。

2.smallwar-surplusenginessmall,war-surplusengines解析：由第六段第一、二句“In1946，heestablishedtheHondaTechnicalResearchInstitutetomotorizebicycleswithsmall，war-surplusengines．ThesebikesbecameverypopularinJapan．”可本见田把战争剩下的小引擎装在自行车上。这种有了动力的自行车在日本很受欢迎。故本题答案为“small，war-surplusengines”。

3.apotentialdangerofautomationapotentialdangerofautomation解析：文章第十二自然段第一、第三句说明此点。自动化具有的潜在危险之一是使工人变成自动化机器的奴隶。

4.contentanalysiscontentanalysis解析：参见第3个小标题DecodingtheMeanings下的第1段的第2行：Hossusesacomputer-basedapproachcalledcontentanalysistointerpretthecolorsindreams．由此可知，霍斯是利用计算机来解释梦中的颜色，此方法被称作内容分析法。

5.impartialityimpartiality解析：本题定位信息是negotiator，从而锁定Whatarethealternatives?部分。该部分第一段中提到，…meetwithatrainedandimpartialnegotiatortoclarifytheissues，discusstheavailableoptions,andreachdecisionsacceptabletoyouboth…heorsheisnottheretopromoteeitherperson'sinterests。由此可推断出，调解人在调解过程中应遵照公平的原则。根据题干要求，文中的形容词impartial应转换成其名词形式impartiality。

6.theyreallyenjoytheyreallyenjoy解析：空白处应为定语。题干中的concentrateon是对原文该部分末句中的focuson的同义改写，可见what后的内容为本题答案。

7.A解析：本题根据文章第二段而设置，具有一定的难度。该段介绍了圣经对耶稣受难的记述，即被犹大出卖，被滑稽地定罪，然后被处死在十字架上。题目正是对该段的概述．因此，表述是正确的。

8.afterthefallofQingdynastyafterthefallofQingdynasty解析：见小标题History下第四段最后一句话。

9.fitthemfitthem解析：由题干中的exercises和onlyiftheykeepdoingthem定位到文章末段的第三、四、五句...theexercisesworkonlyifyoustickwiththem,Instillinghabitsiscrucial.Anotherkey:"fit",orhowwelltheexercisematchestheperson.此处需要填入条件从句的另一个谓语成分。题干中的keepdoingthem“坚持训练”是对原文中stickwiththem的同义转述。原文第五句点出了另外一个因素是fit，即训练是否适合这些人，因此答案为fitthem。

10.C解析：题目中指出LisaPerez在得到新工作后后悔没有早点做义务工作，而这一点在文章中并没有提到。文章标题CommunityInvolvement的最后一段只提到Perez决定不管以后的工作多么繁忙，她也会抽出时间从事义务工作。

11.spendonplantsthemselvesspendonplantsthemselves解析：文章第八段第三句话“…pointtothefactthatpeoplenowseemtospendfarmoreonmachineryandchemicals，andmoreagainonbenches，barbecues，potsandsun-loungers，thantheyspendonplantsthemselves．”指出：人们似乎花在园艺机械及化学制品上的钱要比花在花草本身的钱还要多，因此正确答案为“spendonplantsthemselves”。

12.A解析：由题干中的weekends和eatingandsleepinghabits定位到第一个小标题的第1点内容的第3句Emotionalstresscanalsocausemigraineheadaches，ascan…aninterruptioninroutineeatingandsleepinghabits…题干中的Somepeoplesufferheadachesonweekends和原文中的“weekend”headachessufferedbysomepatients表述一致；题干中的usualeatingandsleepinghabits…suddenlybroken与原文中的aninterruptioninroutineeatingandsleepinghabits属同义转述，因此题干与原文意思一致。

13.overpopulationinthenationoverpopulationinthenation解析：参见小标题A.PopulationPolicyintheUnitedStates下面的第3句：Inthemid-20thcentury,astherestoftheworldawakenedtothepotentialcrisisbroughtonbyuncheckedpopulationgrowth,theU.S.governmentexaminedthepossibleimpactofoverpopulationinthenation．由此可知，在20世纪中叶，美国政府调查了国家人口过剩可能带来的冲击。

14.can'tachieveluciddreamingontheirowncan'tachieveluciddreamingontheirown解析：空白处应为谓宾结构。原文该段第2句开头的oneexample表明本句内容是对上一句的补充说明，因此NovaDreamer的功能在上一句应该可以找到，上一句开头的forthosewho…描述了NovaDreamer的目标用户。对比原文和题干的结构可以确定，空白处应填写can'tachieveluciddreamingontheirown。

15.B解析：由题干关键词psychologicalprofile可将答案定位至第一标题下第四段第二句。Investigatorscreatethisprofileintheabsenceofphysicalevidenceoreyewitnessdescriptions,ortosupplementsuchdescriptions。由此证明本题陈述错误。

16.themerchant'saccountthemerchant'saccount解析：由题干中youraccount和host'saccount可定位到第四个小标题下第三句Ifthecardholderisrequestingcash,...customer'sbankaccounttothehostprocessor'saccount和第五句Theprocessorthetransfersthecardholder'sfundsintothemerchant'sbankaccount。此处要求填入名词性短语作介词to的宾语。本题考查账户中钱是怎样流动的。根据第四个小标题下第三句的主干结构可知，当持卡人需要现金时，现金的流动是从thecustomer'sbankaccount(即题干中的youraccount)到thehostprocessor'saccount；而后再如第五句所言，从thehostprocessor'saccount到themerchant'sbankaccount。因此themerchant'saccount符合原文意思，也符合题干语法要求，是本题答案。

17.A

18.B解析：参考文章Booksandseminarscanbevaluable，butoftenprovetobeaone—timefix．Incontrast，TheOrganizedExecutivearriveseverymonth．SOitservesasaconstantreminder，alwaysfeedingitssubscribersnewideasandmotivatingthemtoupgradetheirknowledgeandcapabilities．从文中可以看出，作者更加看重《规划的执行官》杂志的意义。

19.D解析：题干中的reconsidertomakenaturalgasasafuelsource与原文中的broughtrenewedinterestinnaturalgasasafuelsource属于同义转换，而且时间也一模一样。本题要问的是20世纪60年代末70年代初，人们重新考虑用天然气作燃料的原因。根据定位句，不难看出theoilshortages即是原因所在，故本题答案为D。

20.drillingwellsintotheearth．drillingwellsintotheearth．解析：本题涉及天然气的开采方式。小标题FromFieldtoFord下首段首句Weextractnaturalgastrappedinundergroundreservoirsbydrillingwellsintotheearth为答案出处。题干将原文的主动语态转换成了被动语态。

21.A解析：文中提到“In1838,attheageof10,Durantwastakenbyhisfathertovisitprison...madehimdcterminetodosomethingforallwhowereoppressedanddepriredoftheirliberty.”是随父亲参观监狱的经历让他决心为罪犯和奴隶以及所有受压迫的和被剥削自由的人做点事。故正确答案为A。

22.C

23.agricultural

24.C解析：M:Iranallthewaytothebusstop,butthemanattheticketcountertoldmethebusleftonly5minutesago.

W:That'stoobad.Thosebusesleaveonlyevery50minutes.

Q:Howlongdoesthemanhavetowait?

四个选项都是关于时间的词语，由此可以推断，本对话的问题可能与时间有关。

男士说上一辆公共汽车5分钟之前刚刚离开，女士说，每两辆公共汽车驶出间隔长达50分钟(every50minutes)。所以男士不得不再等待45分钟。故C)为正确答案。

25.A解析：事实细节题女士的话说明了做实验一小时是不够的，至少要一下午。

26.D解析：Slightly?是女方重复男方的话，这里表示一种怀疑。

27.forbidden

28.D解析：根据最后两段关于他们饮食情况的描述，得知他们很奢侈，但举止很不文明，所以选择答案D。

29.B解析：除了最后一次Mike都投了币。可见他一共的投币次数是2次。

30.A解析：语气推断题母亲的反意询问实际是告诉孩子，遇到难题应该学会怎么去解决。

31.TheHeartAssociationadvisesthatalcoholifconsumedatallshouldbelimitedtoonedrinkperdayforwomenandtwoperdayformenTheHeartAssociationadvisesthatalcohol,ifconsumedatall,shouldbelimitedtoonedrinkperdayforwomenandtwoperdayformen

32.B解析：综合推断题。男士说华盛顿有许多博物馆、艺术馆和餐馆，无论天气如何，他都非常高兴到那里去，由此推断，男士不在乎天气，所以B正确。

33.C解析：WhatwillthewomanprobablydoonThursdayafternoon?

四个选项都是描述一件事，由此可以推断，本题内容可能是关于对某件事情的选择。

女士说她星期四下午有一节课(haveaclassonThursdayafternoon)，不能去参加集会，由此可知，女士星期四下午会去上课。故正确答案为C)。

34.A解析：细节题。男士提到他看电视看到那么晚是因为他郁闷，而他郁闷的原因是leftmymealticketsinthecafeteria(把饭票丢在了餐厅)。选项B是说食堂的饭很难吃；C选项是说他错过了他喜欢的电视节目；D选项是说他的电视坏了。都与原文不符，因此答案是A。

35.A解析：男士说Michael是班里最有趣的人，他能够让其他同学笑。女士没有直接赞同或反对男士的话，而是说人们必须要习惯Michael的幽默，言外之意就是她必须学会理解Michael的那种幽默。因此答案为A。

36.B解析：信息明示题。文中提到butunlikemosttwins，BettyandAbbysharepartsofthesamebody(不像大多数孪生姐妹一样，Betty和Abby是共享一些器官的)，由此可以推知正确答案为B。

37.A解析：InwhicheventdidWilmaRudolphsetanewOlympicrecord?
