roil表示“钻探石油”；alotofluck本意表示的是“运气”，在本句中可以翻译为“偶然性”。第13题【单选题】Thebuilding______nowwillbefinishedintendays.A、buildingB、tobebuiltC、beingbuiltD、built【正确答案】C【答案解析】句意：现在正在建的楼十天后完工。表示正在进行，用现在分词，因为是被建，所以选C。beingbuilt相当于whichisbeingbuilt。第14题【单选题】Ifyouweretoexaminethebirthcertificatesofeverysoccerplayerin2006’sWorldCuptournamentyouwouldmostlikelyfindanoteworthyquirk:elitesoccerplayersarelikelytohavebeenbornintheearliermonthsoftheyearthaninthelatermonths.IfyouthenexaminedtheEuropeannationalyouthteamsthatfeedtheWorldCupandprofessionalranks,youwouldfindthisstrangephenomenontobeevenmorepronounced.Whatmightaccountforthisstrangephenomenon?Hereareafewguesses:a）certainastrologicalsignsconfersuperiorsoccerskills.b）winter-bornbabiestendtohavehigheroxygencapacitywhichincreasessoccerstamina.c）soccermadparentsaremorelikelytoconceivechildreninspringtimeattheannualpeakofsoccermania.d）noneoftheabove.Theword“mania”（Paragraph2）mostprobablymeans________.A、funB、crazeC、hysteriaD、excitement【正确答案】B【答案解析】答案选B。词义理解题，考查考生利用上下文推测词义。文章第1段介绍一个奇怪的现象，即高水平的足球运动员多半是一年中头几个月出生的。第2段试图解释这一现象，对这一现象做出种种猜测，即“某些星相赋予人们高超的足球技能”，“冬天出生的婴儿氧气足，这会增加足球运动所需的耐力”，“足球迷的父母往往容易在春天孕育新生命”等等。本段中的“mania”一词出现在第三种猜测中，句子的前半部分有“soccermad”，意思是对足球痴迷、疯狂的，由此可以推断“mania”一词与“soccermad”接近，即“疯狂”。因此正确答案是B。第15题【单选题】Parentsoftendecideonthebasisofwhattheirchildrenwant.Cathy,amothertoldus,“Mychildrenhavepackedlunches,becausetheysaytheyhateschooldinners.Imake3packedluncheseverymorning,soourkitchenislikeasandwichbarinthemorning.”However,anothermother,Susanmadeherchoicebasedonthenutritiousvalueofthefood.Shesaid,“Mydaughteralwayshasschooldinners.IthinksheprobablygetshealthierfoodbyhavingacookedlunchatschoolthanshewouldifImadeafewsandwiches.”WhichofthefollowingisTRUEaccordingtothepassage?A、Katzthinkschipsaregoodforhiskids.B、Susan’sdaughterlikeseatingsandwiches.C、Cathymayhaveatleastthreechildren.D、Jamielikesburgersandpizzas.【正确答案】C【答案解析】答案选C。细节查找并简单推断题。从本段，特别是Imake3packedluncheseverymorning…可知Cathy有三个孩子在上学，有没有不上学的孩子不得而知，故选项C为最佳选项。其他三项均与原文意思不符。第16题【单选题】Spidersarenotinsects,asmanypeoplethink,norevennearlyrelatedtothem.A、正如许多人认为的那样，蜘蛛并不是昆虫，甚至和昆虫一点关系都没有。B、蜘蛛并不像许多人认为的那样是昆虫，它和昆虫一点关系都没有。C、正如许多人认为的那样，蜘蛛就是昆虫，和昆虫密不可分。D、蜘蛛正像许多人认为的那样不是昆虫，它和昆虫一点关系都没有。【正确答案】B【答案解析】本题需要注意asmanypeoplethink，表示的是“许多人认为蜘蛛是昆虫”；此外nor在此处表示的是否定，即“它和昆虫一点关系都没有”。第17题【单选题】Theproblemisthatsuchanimpulseishardtosustain.Acrossthecountry,manysimilarfamilieswereunabletomaintaintheinitialboostinmorale.Forsome,thehardshipsoflifewithoutsteadyworkeventuallyoverwhelmedtheirattemptstokeeptheirfamiliestogether.Thedivorcerateroseagainduringtherestofthedecadeastherecoverytookhold.Whatwillthecurrenteconomiccrisiseventuallydotosomemarriedcouples?A、Itwillforcethemtopulltheireffortstogether.B、Itwillunderminetheirmutualunderstanding.C、Itwillirreparablydamagetheirrelationship.D、Itwillhelpstrengthentheiremotionalbonds.【正确答案】C【答案解析】答案选C。推理判断题。文章本段最后两句提到，工作的不稳定、生活的艰辛最终会使得一些美国人维系家庭的努力消失殆尽，危机过后的数十年中随着经济复苏离婚率再次上升。由此可见，目前的经济危机最终会伤害夫妻关系至无法弥补，故答案为C。A“会迫使他们齐心协力”是经济萧条初期会出现的情况，可以排除；B和D在文中均未提及。第18题【单选题】Thereisnohighorsoundinthehouse,theymusthavegonetothecinema,_____?A、didn’ttheyB、don’ttheyC、mustn’ttheyD、haven’tthey【正确答案】D【答案解析】答案选D。反义疑问句，主句是完成时态，疑问部分也要用对应的时态，答案选D。第19题【单选题】Inthisworldofchangeandcomplexity,theneedforinformationisofgreatestimportance.Thosepeoplewhohaveaccurate,reliableup-to-dateinformationtosolvetheday-to-dayproblems,thecriticalproblemsoftheirbusiness,socialandfamilylife,willsurviveandsucceed"Knowledgeispower"maywellbethetruestsayingandaccesstoinformationmaybethemostcriticalrequirementofallpeople.Wecanlearnfromtheparagraphthat_______.A、itisnecessarytoobtainasmuchknowledgeaspossibleB、peopleshouldmakethebestuseoftheinformationaccessibleC、weshouldrealizetheimportanceofaccumulatinginformationD、itisofvitalimportancetoacquireneededinformationefficiently【正确答案】D【答案解析】答案选D。本段作者指出：“当今世界多变、复杂，信息对人至关重要。人们要学会利用准确、可靠、最新的信息来解决日常问题及他们工作和社会交往、家庭生活中的重大问题，只有这样的人才能生存、才能成功。‘知识就是力量’，获取信息是对所有人的最重要的要求”。从该段中我们得知D项"itisofvitalimportanttoacquireneededinformationefficiently"（有效地获取所需信息是至关重要的）为正确答案。而A项只强调信息的量；B项强调充分利用所获得的信息，而原文强调的是"需要"信息；C项强调应该意识到积累信息的重要性，这在该段中并未提及。第20题【单选题】Thistelevisionprogramprovokedaspirited[debate]intheUnitedKingdom.A、disputeB、issueC、lumpD、prejudice【正确答案】A【答案解析】[debate]辩论；辩论会；dispute辩论；争吵。第21题【单选题】Watchingmepullingthecalfawkwardlytothebarn,theIrishmilkmaidfoughthardto[holdback]herlaughter.A、checkB、keepC、stopD、retain【正确答案】A【答案解析】[holdback]抑制，控制。check克制，抑制（做某事或表露感情）。参考译文：看见我笨手笨脚地把牛牵向牲口棚，那位爱尔兰挤奶女工竭尽全力克制自己不笑出声来。第22题【单选题】Itisamusingthatshe________herfather’sbadtemperaswellashermother’sgoodlooks.A、inheritedB、retainedC、preservedD、maintained【正确答案】A【答案解析】本题的B、C和D选项虽然意思有些相近，但从题句意来看只有A符合题意。inherit“经遗传而得（性格、特征等）”。第23题【单选题】He______morethan5000Englishwordswhenheenteredtheuniversityattheageof15.A、haslearnedB、wouldhavelearnedC、learnedD、hadlearned【正确答案】D【答案解析】掌握了5000多个单词并非在15岁上大学时发生，而是早在之前就完成了，过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时。句意：在他15岁上大学时，就已经掌握了5000多个单词了。第24题【单选题】Thefarmissetrightnexttoabeautifulfloodplainandthepropertyishometotreesthathavelivedforthousandsofyears.AllofthevillagesthroughoutBotswana（博茨瓦纳）
