11.B

12.A

13.B

14.Makebusinessefficient/achievegoal

15.A

16.whowho解析：此空后的句子应为teacher的定语从句，故此空处应填who，引导修饰人的定语从句。

17.foundfound解析：此句意为“1,000名受访者中有70%的发现，相对于其他设备来说，在使用手机时人们表现出最差的礼仪”，所以答案为“found”。

18.fromfrom解析：keepsth．fromdoingsth：意为“防止某事…”，为固定短语。

19.fromfrom解析：“来自…的数据”，要用介词“from”。所以此处应填“from”。

20.thatthat解析：参见32题解析，idea与bigachievementsrarelycomeeasilyandquickly是同位语，故此空应填that，引导同位语从句。

21.dailydaily解析：此句意为“但是不要使他们的…工作仅仅成为一长串令人心烦的差使。”显然，此空应填“每日的，日常的”。

22.offoff解析：turnoff是“关掉”的意思，此题考查动词短语的用法，根据上下文语境，这里意思是“关掉你的手机”。所以用副词“off”。

23.rationalrational解析：从文章的后面可以知道，顾客们已经要结算了，认为都买了该买的商品。但是售货员在他们等着付账的过程中巧妙的利用顾客们的购物冲动向他们推销，而不是理性购物。故答案为rational。

24.customercustomer解析：从这个句子的宾语“…thatheorshehasdoneagoodjobofchoosingtheitems．”可以看出，这里说的是顾客的行为，他们认为自己买这些商品是很理性的。故答案为customer。

25.dailydaily解析：此句意为“但是不要使他们的…工作仅仅成为一长串令人心烦的差使。”显然，此空应填“每日的，日常的”。

26.AA解析：由此空的上下两段可以得到答案。上段说的如何去看人的两种方法，而后面的一段接着说的地点问题。所以这里的“dependingonwherethemeetingtakesplace.”符合句意，故应选A。

27.C解析：由C中的第二段“Itisnowconsideredthecenterofindustry，transportation，commerceandfinanceinthemid—westarea．”可知答案为C。

28.A解析：第六段中男主人看到清理垃圾的车，误以为是Mickey来了，正要出去澄清误会，把上次的小费补上，却遭到了回收员的蔑视，所以他感到澄清误会的机会是很渺茫了，对于假期小费的事情他已经绝望了。因此正确答案为A。

29.FF解析：由此空上下文可以看出，选项中只有F放在此处符合逻辑，上下文才能连贯。

30.C解析：由第一段可知NAAFA认为肥胖无害，故A项是错误的。B项文章中未提到。第一段倒数第二句话说到基因决定人的胖瘦，故C项是正确的。NAAFA只是认肥胖对人体无害，并没有说有好处，故D项是错误的。

31.C解析：瓦萨利在文中第一段说到“VasariexpressedanuneasewithBotticelli'swork，…”说明他的态度是反对的，后来在最后一段中间部分“However,HomearguedthatBotticelli…emphasizedcleardepletionofastory,auniqueachievement…”表明霍姆的态度是肯定的。故应选C。

32.C解析：由C中的howitworks中的第一条“Thiswasoriginallydevelopedinordertoprovideelectricityforsatellites，…”可知答案为C。

33.D解析：由短文第六段可知答案为D。

34.A解析：“Itwaslikeofferingtodropasafeonmyheadtocuremyheadache．”意为“就像给我提供一个保险箱放我头上来治愈我的头痛一样。”含蓄讽刺地说技术员提供的建议不可采取。所以本题应选A。

35.B解析：由B中的第一段“…andglobalbiodiversityisbeinglostbyreasonofthousandsofyearsofhabitatconversions．”可知。

36.C解析：通过全文的理解，我们可以发现作者在列数了经济形势不好的局面之后，也表明了人们对此依然存在着乐观态度，有的人还能从中受益，所以作者的态度应该是“对此加以注意，但不要惶恐。”故应选C。

37.D解析：由短文第二段中的“…showedthatthosewithnormalbloodpressureunderwentnochangeatallwhenplacedonanextremelylow—saltdiet，…”可知。

38.A解析：由第二段最后一句话可知A项正确。B项不能从文中推知。C项文中没有提及。男性工人的健康在法律中是得到考虑了的，故D项不正确。

39.B解析：由文章倒数第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetailtothehead．”可知。

40.B解析：由B中的第一段“Globalenvironmentalproblemsariseoutoftheaccumulatedimpactsfrommanyyears'andmanycountries'economicdevelopment．”可知。

41.C短文赏析

世界贸易组织的建立加强了世界贸易体系，更加有效地管理国际货物及服务贸易。第一，通过大幅度降低贸易壁垒、关税及农业保护，将增加贸易自由化程度。第二，世贸组织的建立可以增强国际贸易条例的实施，减少贸易保护主义，更加有效地解决贸易争端。第三，建立了新的多边规则，如服务及知识产权保护。这将促进全球自由贸易体系的建立。世贸组织的建立改变了世界经济结构，孤立的经济体被联系到一起，国内金融市场融入世界体系，跨国公司日益成为投资资本和生产地点分配的主体。

答案解析：

由短文第一段中的“TheWTO，whichsucceedstheGATT"，…”可知，WTO应诞生于GATT之后。

42.B对于妇女的惯常思维没有因为法律而变化，所以A项不正确。根据第二段第一句话可知B项正确。从常识判断，雇主是不会主动提出提高妇女权益保护的，所以他们的保护不会比立法前多，故C项是不正确的。D项从文中不能推断出。

43.D由整篇短文的主旨“低盐并不适于所有人”可知，此处“eventheveryvocal‘lowsalt’exponent”意为“即使是强力推荐的‘低盐”’。

44.D由短文第六段可知答案为D。

45.F此空填入F，上下文衔接，意思连贯。2021年河南省许昌市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
