参考答案

1.D

2.B解析：这个小题考查对作者在本文中持有的观点的理解。作者在文章一开头就指出：Thetraditionalbeliefthatawoman'splaceisinthehomeandthatawomanoughtnottogoouttoworkcanhardlybereasonablymaintainedinpresentconditions.意思是：“妇女的位置是在家庭里以及妇女不应当外出工作这一传统观念，在今天的环境中已经没有理由再保持下去了。”在最后一段中，又说：Itisextremelywastefultogiveyearsoftrainingatpublicexpenseonlytohavethequalifiedteacherornursemarryafterayearortwoandbelostforevertoherprofession.Thetraining,itistrue,willhelpherinherdutiesasamother,butifshecontinuedtowork,herservicewouldbemorewidelyuseful.意为：“以公费获取多年的培训之后，那些取得了资格的教师或护士一、两年后就结婚并永远地离开了她们的职业，这真是极大的浪费。”而另一方面，Manyfactoriesandshops,too,arelargelystaffedbywomen,manyofthemmarried.Whileherethequestionoftrainingisnotsoimportant,industryandtradewouldbeseriouslyshortofstaffifmarriedwomendidnotwork.意思是“许多工厂和商店也雇用大量妇女为其工作，虽然在这些地方，所受的培训不是那么重要，但是如果已婚妇女都不工作，那么工业和商业的劳动人员就会大大短缺。”也就是说，作者认为，不论是否受过专业教育，已婚妇女还是应该继续工作。B选项allmarriedwomenshouldhavesomeoccupationoutsidethehome“所有已婚妇女都应该出门参加工作”，反映了作者所持的观点。A选项therightplaceforallwomen,marriedorotherwise,isthehome,notelsewhere.“所有已婚或未婚妇女的位置都应该在家庭里，而不是在其他任何地方。”这是传统观念，而不是作者的观点。C选项amarriedwomanshouldgivefirstprioritytoherdutiesasamother“已婚妇女应该优先履行母亲的职责”，这点虽然看起来没有错，但不是作者在本文里想要阐述的观点。D选项itisdesirableforuneducatedmarriedwomantostayathomeandtakecareofthefamily的意思是：“未受过足够教育的已婚妇女应该待在家里照顾家人。”从最后一段可以看出，这也不符合作者的观点。

3.B解析：由第二段可知，Devon和Cornwall在英格兰西南部。在西南部冬季不下雪。

4.A

5.B解析：本题为词义推理题。从最后一段中，我们可以推知"tokeneconomies"指的是给学生如何判分，如何通过打分来激发学生，激发他们的创造性。

6.C从哥白尼学的是天文学(astron—omy)，研究的是太空中的太阳、地球等可知，astronomy就是对太空中天体的研究.

7.D文中第四句提到加拿大的娱乐节目所占的比例是44％，是最高的。

8.C解析：从keepsb.alive可以得知。

9.A

10.C解析：第三段和最后一段都点明了主题。科学家对动物的冬眠仍有很多疑问。选项C是正确的。

11.B解析：本题属细节题。根据文章第二段第三句的意思，就可找出答案。

12.D文中第二段第二句“Edisonhadsolvedcertainproblems．makingitpossibleforotherinventorsmoveaheadwiththeirowndevices．”给出了答案。

13.C

14.D解析：根据第一段“whichistheoppositeofthepopularly-heldimageofunhappyteenagerslockedintheirroomafterendlessfamilyquarrels。”可知(青少年)普遍的形象是和父母无休止争吵完后把自己锁在屋子里，所以给人的印象是常常和其他家庭成员争吵。

15.A

16.B

17.C解析：参见第三段：加利福尼亚州要求到2003年，加州的道路上应有10%的新车是不排放污染气体的。

18.A解析：本题属深层理解题。文章最后一段中的“themarketistellingyousomething”，就是市场具体存在的表现。

19.A解析：由后三段可知，纳迪亚的数学非常好，她“handledeveryquestiontheteachergaveher”。

20.B见原文第三段。这条大鲸重18，100公斤，就等于大约18，000，000克。

21.A

22.A解析：见原文第二段。马可尼没有得到意大利政府的资助便前往英国从事研究工作。

23.C解析：本题为是非判断题。从全文来看，作者总的是要说城市太大使得人们脱离了自然，对生活有许多不利方面的影响。但并不是说最简单的事物都被强加于人们头上。显然，C项是作者没提到的。

24.A根据第三段第四句，水手们能感觉到鲸鱼的胃里有东西在剧烈地晃动。A项是正确的。

25.D

26.B根据最后一段可知选B项。A、C、D三项的内容均与文章不符。

27.A

28.B在第四段中提到“911”这个电话号码，根据上下文推断，可知这个号码应该是在紧急情况下拨的号码。

29.B34．答案为B。根据第一段第一句，urbanAmericansbeganamassmovetothesuburbsinsearchoffreshair，elbowroomandprivacy作出该项选择。

30.B32．答案为B

第二段中choosewhatwordsyouneedtoknowandwhatwordsyoucanskiporscan可猜出scan是指不太重要可略读的语句。

31.D解析：前面提到她学习的是音乐，并想当歌手或钢琴家。后面的but转折，说她还是决定改变。所以这句中的wouldnever强调与改变相反的事：弹钢琴。因此，这里应是永远不会放弃。Giveback归还，givein屈服，giveoff放出，giveup放弃。选项D是正确的。

32.D此处是“with+n．+adv．”构成的复合结构作伴随状语。

33.B解析：havesomefreetime意思是“有些闲暇时间”。

34.B

35.B

36.Dsocialcontacts意为“社交”。

37.B解析：通过Everyonewantstobeyoung可以确定选B选项，意思是“年龄”。

38.C谓语动词题。

【虚试指导】坐过飞机的英语表达方式是havebeenonaplane，而不用ride，fly等动词。

39.B

40.B解析：本题属词形题。根据前边的swimming和后边的running断定这里应该选动名词skiing(滑雪)。

41.A从下文“不希望被打扰”推出应当是“关掉手机”。turnoff意为“关掉”；turnon意为“打开”；setoff意为“出发”；seton意为“着手做”。

42.A此题为一道理解题。此空白处所要填充的是一个前面已两次涉及过的概念，即在文章第2段中的it'sdifficulttodefinewhatacityis和同一段中的itisn'teasytodetermineacity'sboundaries。如能很快查到或记起相关论述，就能很快断定出此处所需填充的是一个表示“边界”或“范围”的英文词。、当limit用来表达“界限”、“界线”和“范围”时，通常使用其复数形式。

43.C解析：本题属词选题。此空应是形容词，故silence(安静)不符。fast快速的，loud大声的，均与音乐会场景不符。

44.A

45.B解析：但有些人带的显然是非常危险的物品。

46.D21．答案为D

此处测试基本句型。看选项，注意其中的is和are，它们都可以与tohave连用。英文中的betodo为一种句型，beto后面接动词不定式，用于表示“责任、义务、意图、约定、可能性”等，一般翻译成“必须”。在本句中，决定be的形式的词为people，故选D为答案。

47.B32．过去完成时态，表示在做这个动作之前作者不知道腿是可以拆卸的。选项B是正确的。

48.C解析：我说：“我在伦敦谁都不认识。”又加了一句：“我喜欢跟其他孩子们玩，我也喜欢读书。”

49.C该句前面是inadditionto引导的介词短语，可以确定不是定语从句，再分析句子结构，可知该句应为therebe句型。

50.B

51.B本题考查动词词组辨析。

【应试指导】句意：如果她履行了自己的诺言，她就会进入耶鲁大学了。该句是由if引导的非真实条件句转换而来的倒装句，描述的事情与过去事实相反。lookupt0尊敬，敬仰；keepupwith跟上．追上；comeupwith想出，提出；liveupt0遵守，履行。故B项符合题意。

52.B本题考查名词修饰名词的用法。

【应试指导】句意：现在，在商务信函中，人们在女经理前用Ms来替代Miss或者Mrs。名词作定语时，该名词一般用单数形式，但man和woman作定语时，其单复数的形式要与被修饰的名词保持一致。A项前应加不定冠词a。故选B。

53.A6．答案为A

你明天来的时候一定不要忘了把信用卡带来。forgettodosth．

“忘记要做某事”；forgetdoingsth．“忘记做过了某事”。bring表“带来”，take表“带走”。

54.Acomearound“苏醒过来”；comeagain“再说一遍”；comeback“回来”；comeon“跟着来，进步”。

55.BInadditionto“除了，另外”；Inspiteof“尽管”；Inreturnfor“作为……的报答”；Insteadof“代替”。

56.D

57.Dif如果；however但是；whether是否；unless除非。句意为：我不会相信你，除非你可以给我一个完美的解释。

58.A解析：besensitiveto意为“对…敏感”。

59.B解析：happento表“偶然”“碰巧”。

60.B解析：comeacross有“偶然发现(遇见)”的意思。comeabout“发生”。吉林省吉林市成考专升本英语学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
