15.Thecompleteanswers

16.onon解析:“…的决定”英语表达为“decisiononsth.”这里介词需要用on。故答案为on。

17.olderolder解析:grow只能是年龄越来越大。

18.ofof解析:“对现实的了解”的英文表达是“theunderstandingofreality”,这里的介词用of。故答案为of。

19.atat解析:某大学的教授,应为“aprofessorat…university”,所以答案为介词“at”。

20.reasonsreasons解析:本段的第一句话提出问题,问为什么在结算处摆设了那么多的商品。很明显,后面的文章对这个问题进行回答,并列举了原因。故答案为reasons。

21.thethe解析:此处缺冠词,在年轻人之间,用the表示特指。所以此处应填“the”。

22.acrossacross解析:getacross意为“使(观点等)被理解或接受,讲清自己的意思”,此句意为“给他们讲清巨大的成功不会轻易、快速地到来很重要。”

23.notnot解析:此空前半句意为“我们真地生活在污染中,呼吸着它”,而后半句意为“它开始…我们的健康、幸福和文明。”显然,这是因果关系,故中间的surprisingly前只能加个否定词not。

24.pollpoll解析:此句意为“Synovate市场研发公司的调查显示”,poll的意思为“民意调查”。因此答案为“poll”。

25.andand解析:“both…and…”为固定搭配,“两者都”。所以此处应填“and”。

26.CC解析:由此空上几段看,均是在讲述Louis-Dreyfus的事,而下一段则提到另一个人MichaelMichalsky,故此空应为C,因为C中讲述的仍是Louis—Dreyfus的事。

27.B解析:talkshop意为“谈公事”。

28.A解析:由文章第二段“…intheThirdWorldtowardfamilysizeandadawningrealisationthatenvironmentaldegradation…”。

29.D解析:此题问技术员的回答如何。文章中“ButIdoneedit.”“Yes.butyoudon’thaveit.”Wewentonlikethisforawhile.Finally,heofferedtowalkmethrough…可以看出“技术员最后是在敷衍作者,没有提出一个合理的解决办法”。所以本题应选D。

30.BB解析:由上一段段意可知,B放在最后一处最合适。

31.B解析:文中提到,在一家企业中,最昂贵的资源是人力资源。

32.A解析:由A中将打算建“nighttimeeconomy”可以看出。所以此处答案为A。

33.C解析:由文章中作者描述联合国世界领导人会议的口气看,他对待该会议的态度应是critical的。

34.B解析:由第四段中的“Thehorsesarelessaffectedthanamanwouldbe,andwhentheelectriceelshaveexhaustedthemselves,theycanbecaughtwithoutdanger.”可知。

35.A解析:从文章最后一句话“BecauseofHome’semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart,thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli’sachievements.”可以看出,作者认为波提切利的作品在二十一世纪会被重新的认识,人们会重新认识他作品的成就。故应选A。

36.B解析:书评二中提到许多经济学家,甚至布什政府的官员都赞成Sfiglitz的论点,认为“economicchangeinthedevelopingworldmustevolvemorewithlocalconditions”。所以本题应选B。

37.A解析:由A中的第三段“WashingtonistheheadquartersofallthebranchesoftheAmericanfederalsystem:Congress,theSupremeCourtandthePresidency.”可知答案为A。

38.C解析:文章开始就提出“WhatnewvaluesshouldAmericansadopt?”指出美国人应该具有什么样的价值观念。接着作者列出了自己的观点,所以整个文章是围绕着“价值观念”的论点展开。故应选C。

39.A解析:由全文看,作者支持的一种观点是“为所有人创造工作机会是不可能的”。

40.C解析:A、B、D在文中均提到,是正确的,而C不对,文中提到“Youwouldexpectthemtofindtheirfriendsfromtheirprofessionalassociates,butthisisnotthecase.Rather,theyprefertomakefriendswiththenormalfolkintheirdistricts.”

41.B短文赏析

对于一般人来说,最大的一种风险就是早逝。因此,购买人寿保险是最为划算也是最为廉价的一种选择。但是,保险公司的投保品种却不止这一种。投资于保险可以免税。但是,保险作为一种投资也有缺点,就是承保范围可能会需要费用成本。很多公司的大病保险可以立即支付1/4的保费,但保险业在提供多种产品的同时也使选择更加复杂化和困难。

答案解析:

由文章第一段第一句“Insuranceissupposedtoprovideprotectionagainstfinancialrisks…”可知。

42.B由B中的后面部分“Themostimportantconstructions...HeavenKitchen....0thersofhistoricinterestandscenicbeauty.”可知。

43.B由下一段第—句“Thepoker-lovingLouis—Dreyfusknew...”可知此空处填B最合适,因为“Louis—Dreyfus,scionof...”必定在下一段之前逻辑上才讲得通。

44.C由C中的第一段“Lookatthetitleofthemovie,TeamAmerica:WorldPolice.ThisdefinitelysoundslikeAmerica,thebigbrothertotheworld,whetherpeoplewantUStobeornot.”可知。

45.B短文赏析

本文介绍了税的历史及税种。从古至今,各国的统治者曾经征收过各种各样奇怪的税种。税种多可以分散纳税压力。不同的人纳税负担是不同的,因此三级政府有不同的税种,最为常见的就是所得税、财产税、销售税、资产税、遗产税和礼物税。其中,所得税是联邦收入的主要来源,最古老的税种是财产税。销售税是向购买行为征收的税。另外,每个人在死后转移资产的时候,如果超过一定数量还要支付资产税。

答案解析:

由短文第一段中的“Andaccordingtolegend,therewasaTurkishrulerwho...Topayforthewearandtearonhisteeth.”。2021年黑龙江省鸡西市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
