参考答案

1.C解析：由“ThePronounProblem”部分第二段最后一句“In1879，forexample，amovetoadmitfemalephysicianstotheall-maleMassachusettsMedicalSocietywaseffectivelyblockedonthegroundsthatthesociety'sby-lawsdescribingmembershipusedthepronounhe．”可知拒绝女医生加入协会的原因是该协会的细则在描述其成员时用的是代词“he”。因此；原文只是说明了拒绝接纳女成员的原因，并没有提及多少人被拒之门外。故信息不充分。此句判断为NOTGIVEN。

2.receivetreatmentreceivetreatment解析：本题缺的是题干后半句的谓语，而根据关键信息somecitizensfearpeoplewithAIDS，butothers寻读原文可确定本题应填的是：havegreatsympathyfor。

3.B解析：细节题。由题目中的newwhite-collarworld找到小标题Fifth下第一段第三句，Hencemybeliefthatwhileittookaboutacenturytorevolutionizeblue-collarjobpractices,thisbravenewwhite-collarsocialsystemwillbemostlyinstalledinatenthofthattime—10years.(因此，我认为蓝领工作

4.suitablematchessuitablematches解析：推理判断题。此处要求填入名词性成分作find的直接宾语；原文非常详细地罗列了网站要求用户填写的关于个人外貌特征的细节，根据上下文便可容易地推出，用户被要求详细描述自己的外貌是为了找到合适的配对(suitablematches)，因此该短语即为本题答案。

5.religiouscelebrationreligiouscelebration解析：根据关键词originatedfrom以及后面的辅助信息thatwereheldtoshowrespecttheGodsoftheGreeks,不难把本题定位到原文，文中叙述的是：在为了表示对神的敬仰而举行的宗教活动中，举办了最早的奥运会。

6.A解析：本题问“如今在美国聚会上什么食物非常流行?”根据题文中“foodareverypopular”可将相关部分定位于小标题为“FoodforFun(食物的乐趣)”部分。其中第六自然段第三句话提到“Andbelieveitornot,Asianfoodsarenowinfashion.”，即“不管你信不信，现今亚洲食物风靡时尚。”这里“infashion”和题文中“popular”意思相近。因此，A项“亚洲食物”正确。

7.escapepredatorsanddistinguishbetweennightanddayescapepredatorsanddistinguishbetweennightandday解析：从“Theskeletonsofbrittlestars，whichareseacreaturesrelatedtostarfishandseaurchins(海胆)，containthousandsoftinylensesthatcollectivelyform.asingle，distributedeye．Thisenablesbrittlestarstoescapepredatorsanddistinguishbetweennightandday．”中可以找到答案。

8.2020解析：根据第1个标题下面的第3段第的2句：Inoneyearofaveragereadingbyanaveragereaderfor15minutesaday，20bookswillberead，可知盲目读20本书。

9.D解析：细节辨认题。根据原文可知，睡觉时呼吸暂停最普遍的治疗方法就是usingaContinuousPositiveAirwayPressure(orCPAP)machine，故答案为D。

10.atisfactionrests。解析：根据题干中的信息词firstsixquestions和makeupthebase定位到倒数第五段，可知需要注意的是，如果12道问题中的大多数你都能给出肯定的答案，但你无法给出肯定答案的少数问题在前6个之中，那你的工作可能就没你想的那么好，因为前6个问题是工作满意度的基础所在，由此可得答案。

11.B解析：参见第二段最后一句：Sinceitwassolightandstrong，peoplestartedcallingit“mithril”—thenameofahighlyprizedtypeofarmorusedinTheLordofRings．可见，世界各地的人们开始将这种超轻、超强的材料称做“mithril”，此名源于《指环王》中一种珍贵的铠甲。

12.B解析：(Callat661-294-2510)从文章第一段中很快可以找到答案。

13.tradeandagriculturetradeandagriculture解析：根据题干中的信息词melting和newopportunities定位到最后一个小标题下的第一段，可知对于生活在该地区的人而言，冰川融化带来的既有好消息，也有坏消息，坏消息是他们现有的生活方式和主食将会改变，而好消息就是融化后更为开阔的海洋将给他们带来贸易和农业的新机会，由此可得答案。

14.B解析：原文该句中的…wasborn…表明Auto-Tune是在:1996年发明出来的，因此本题应选B。选项A的数字40是Hildebrand退休的年龄，但他发明Auto-Tune那一年是否就是他退休那一年，原文并无提及。

15.mentionsmentions解析：文章第一段最后—句可以看出该书虽然没有专门章节谈论这一问题,但还是有所涉及的。

16.improvethesituationimprovethesituation解析：细节题。根据题干定位到倒数第二段首句MartinusVanSchalkwyk...saidthereweremeasuresinplacetoimprovethesituation，即：环境和观光事业部长Schalkwyk参观了德尔班南部的盆地，并指出还是有措施可以改善现状的，故得答案。

17.B解析：通观全文，Chan确实在讲话中提到建立健全卫生体系实现集体安全等概念，但并没有提到她认为国际社会在增进公共卫生方面合作不够。

18.A解析：参见第9段：Therearetwosystemsforanalyzingrisk:anautomatic，intuitivesystemandamorethoughtfulanalysis．Ourperceptionofriskliveslargelyinourfeelings，somostofthetimeweareoperatingonsystemNo.1.systemNo.1指的是自动直觉系统。

19.A解析：题干涉及到了改变多和改变少的比较，从而锁定文章第十一段。该段第三句提到Sometimes…majorchanges…areeasierthanminorones…。题干中的changeourdietalot对应文中的majorchanges；changeitalittle对应minorones；can对应sometimes，故答案为Y。

20.2200institutions2,200institutions解析：本题空白处问“有多少人参加了欧洲的关于为学生出国工作做准备的Erasmus计划”。根据题干关键词"Erasmusprogram"定位在文章第五段。该段讲述的是“学校鼓励学生获得国际游学经历”，进一步定位在本段的第二句。该句首先说“每年有超过140000学生参与到theErasmusprogram中来”，后面又说“这些学生在2200个参与Erasmus计划的研究机构中通过学习课程来获得学分”。题干最后面的"topreparestudentsforglobalcareers"是来自后面一句的干扰信息。该题空白处应填与"2，200participatinginstitutions"相对应的主要主语成分。因此，答案为2，200institutions。

21.B解析：Whatdoestheprofessorsayaboutclipperships?

文中有对两处对clippership(快速大帆船)的形象描述：第一处theenormousYankeeclipperswithhugesailsreachingnearlytwohundredfeetintosky说明其很大(large)；第二处inlessthanthreemonthsandcleartoChinainjusthalfayear．Atthattimethisseemedunbelievablyfastandefficient说明其速度非常快(surprisingly，fast)，由此可知B项正确。

22.ThisdocumentstatedthatallhumanbeingsarecreatedfreeandequalindignityandrightsThisdocumentstatedthatallhumanbeingsarecreatedfreeandequalindignityandrights解析：Thispaperclaimedthatallmanarebornfreeandequalindignityandrights

23.twentieth

24.wearing

25.A解析：由文章首句Sothecounselingservicesweofferdealwithanyproblemsarisingfromyourstudies,orinyourlifeoutsidetheuniversity可知这是校园生活场景，内容涉及大学的咨询服务。之后谈的均是针对海外学生在学习生活中所出现的问题；该机构所能提供的多方面的帮助和服务，这也即是该篇短文的主题所在，故答案是A。B，C，D只是该机构提供服务的具体方面，不全面，故排除。

26.D

27.A

28.C解析：Whatistheauthor'sopinionconcerninganimals'health?

29.C解析：原文中说"Stretchuptothepointwhereitwouldstarttohurt,thenstopimmediately",即拉升到疼痛的时候应立即停止。

30.D解析：文章明确指出人们对梦做出了各种解释，但是多数不可信，故本题选择D。

31.D解析：概括推断题从对话中可以看出教授的课很受学生欢迎，课后很多学生还会和教授讨论交流，由此可以判断他们师生之间合作得很好。
