参考答案

1.A文中第一段第五句“Beforethedawnofthetwentiethcentury．．．”表明是在二十世纪之前发生的。

2.A解析：文章第一段提到itisresponsibleforsocialprogressandprosperity，正好和选项A相符。故正确答案为A。

3.D54．第二段。戴维斯湖有许多小河流人，它与许多小湖相通。专家就担心北梭子鱼会借其道流入其他的湖，继而到处泛滥。选项D是正确的。选项B是当地百姓所担心的。

4.B根据上下文推断，以及文中提示的信息，bargain一词正是指代了降价的商品。

5.D

6.D解析：本题属细节题。文章第二句的末尾部分已经提到：公路修理的状态取决于当地行政长官的热心程度。

7.D

8.C解析：本题为客观细节题。在文章的第一段最后一句“Itmaythentakeusalongtimetorenderitintelligentbyloadingintherightsoftware(软件)orbyalteringthearchitecturebutthattoowillhappen”中，作者指出通过安装软件或改变结构去使得机械变得像人一样有智力。

9.B

10.D

11.A参见句子：Theypointoutthatatacircus，forexample，wemayseeelephants，monkeys，dogsandotheranimalsdoingquiteskillfulthings．句中they指的就是scientists。

12.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。

13.B

14.B解析：本题考查的是对细节的把握能力。所谓细节题指原文提到某事物、某现象或理论，题中针对原文具体叙述本身发问。解题时使用“定位法”，即根据题干或选项中的线索词回原文，找到相关句，与选项相比较后，确定答案。该题可以从文章第一段最后一句Inmodernwesternworld,manypeoplearetoobusytobotherabouteatingproperly得出答案。toobusytobotherabouteatingproperly的意思是“太忙以至于怕麻烦而不好好吃饭”。

15.B解析：见原文最后一段。动物保护分子发送警告信，并在信中藏有刀片。说明如果收到信的人没有按照信中所说的去做，必定会遭到暴力的伤害。

16.B本题为句义理解题。文章第三段最后两句讲到“OntheborderbetweenEnglandandWales，…Andnowbookshavereplacedsheepasthetown'smaintrade.”即：在英格兰和威尔士边境的一座小城曾是绵羊交易市场，现在也是很大的书市，目前书已取代羊成为该城镇的主要贸易品种。

19.B最后一段指出这座城市的地下有座被遗弃的煤矿，煤矿坑道的倒塌带动了道路的下沉，整座城市随时都会倒塌。B项是正确的。

20.B解析：参见句子：Somepeoplehave"Sundaydinner".Thisisanespeciallybignoonmeal.

21.A解析：本题为是非判断题。文章从一开始就阐明作者对青少年的叛逆心理的赞许。然而，青少年做得还不够，他们易受流行浪潮的影响，易受家长的影响。由此，我们可知B、C、D三个选项是符合文章内容的。只有A项错误。

22.B解析：这道题问的是我们对美国人的哪一点感到惊讶。答案可以从全文的第一句话得出。Americansareproudoftheirvarietyandindividualityyettheyloveandrespectfewthingsmorethanauniform…。美国人为他们的多样化和富有个性而感到骄傲，然而他们对制服却表现出一种对别的事物很少有的喜爱和尊敬。A选项stilljudgeamanbyhisclothes的意思是“仍然以貌取人”，不符原文意思。B选项thinkhighlyofuniforms的意思是“对制服评价高”，与原文意思一致，为正确答案。C选项lesspreferwearingcivilianclothes的意思是“不太喜欢穿平民的衣服”，也不符合原文意思。D选项respectaliftoperator
