象的；深奥的”；apparent意为“显然的；表面上的”。39．Thiswareissuitablefordecorativepurposebutisnotsuitablefor______.A．convenienceB．meritC．utilityD．benefit正确答案：C解析：译文：这种器皿中看不中用。名词辨析题。utility意为“实用；效用；功用”，符合句意，故[C]为答案。convenience意为“便利；便利的事物”；merit意为“优点，价值；功绩”；benefit意为“利益，好处；救济金”。40．Thismachinehelpsyouto______morejuiceout.A．compressB．squeezeC．jamD．squash正确答案：B解析：译文：这台机器能帮助你挤出更多的果汁。动词辨析题。squeeze意为“挤；紧握”，多指从两面或多面施加压力来压紧、压碎或压出水来，符合句意，故[B]为答案。compress意为“压缩，压紧；精简”，指把某些东西压在一起或使占有较小空间；jam意为“堵塞；挤进，使塞满”，专指“四面八方都压紧或塞满”；squash意为“镇压；把……压扁”，指某物受力被压扁或压碎，故均排除。41．Butwedoneedalittlefreedomfromourleashes______.A．inparticularB．atalleventsC．onoccasionD．bychance正确答案：C解析：译文：有时候我们也确实需要从束缚中获得一点自由。短语辨析题。onoccasion意为“有时；偶尔”，符合句意，故[C]为答案。inparticular意为“尤其，特别”；atallevents意为“无论如何，不管怎样”:bychance意为“偶然；意外地”，均不如onoccasion贴切，均排除。PARTIVCLOZEDecidewhichofthewordsgivenintheboxbelowwouldbestcompletethepassageifinsertedinthecorrespondingblanks.ThewordscanbeusedONCEONLY.[A]accepting[B]analytical[C]battling[D]books[E]concretely[F]critical[G]emerge[H]express[I]fictional[J]immersing[K]positively[L]refugees[M]register[N]resolutions[O]shelvesForauthorsofself-helpguides,nohumanproblemistoogreatortoosmall.Wanttobecomefitter,richerorhappierin2015?Therearebooksforit—【C1】______uponshelvesofthem.Hopingforincreasedefficiency,decisivenessandcreativityinthemonthsahead?Therearetitlesforthat,too.AswesettledowntoourNewYear’s【C2】______,we’llturnindrovestoself-helpbooks,hopingtofindourownbestselvesintheirpages.Butabookneedn’tlecturetoleaveitsimprint.Thetruthisthatallgoodliteraturechangesus,andagrowingbodyofresearchsuggestsyoumightdobetterbrowsingthroughfictionforsupportin【C3】______life’schallenges.Thinkofitlessasself-helpthan“shelfhelp”.Readinghasbeenproventosharpen【C4】______thinking,enablingustobetterdiscernpatterns—ahandytoolwhenitcomestotheoftenbafflingbehaviourofourselvesandothers.Butfictioninparticularcanmakeyoumoresociallyable.Lastyear,theJournalofAppliedSocialPsychologypublishedapapershowinghowreadingHarryPottermadeyoungpeopleintheU.K.andItalymore【C5】______disposedtowardsstigmatised(使蒙上污名的)minoritiessuchas【C6】______.Andin2013,psychologistsattheNewSchoolforSocialResearchfoundthatliteraryfictionenhancedpeople’sabilityto【C7】______andreadothers’emotions.Wethinkofnovelsasplacesinwhichtoloseourselves,butwhenwe【C8】______wetakewithusinspirationfromourfavouritecharacters.A2012studybyresearchersatOhioStateUniversityfoundthatthisprocesscouldactuallychangeareader’sbehaviour.Inoneexperiment,participantsstronglyidentifyingwitha【C9】______characterwhoovercameobstaclestovoteprovedsignificantlymorelikelytovoteinarealelection.Theymaynotpromisetransformationinseveneasysteps,butgrippingnovelscaninformandmotivateus,shortstoriescanconsoleandtriggerself-reflection,andpoetryhasbeenshowntoengagepartsofthebrainlinkedtomemory.Sometimesanauthorhelpsbysimplytakingyourmindoffaproblem,【C10】______yousofullyinanother’sworldandoutlookthatyoutranscendyourself,returningrechargedanddetermined.42．【C1】正确答案：O解析：空格位于介词upon之前，根据此处语境及语法规则可推断，所填词应为名词。由上文可知，对于自助指南类书籍的作者来说，人们所面临的问题都谈不上太大，也算不上太小。无论你想在2015年里更健康、更富有，还是更快乐，都有书籍写过这些内容。根据上下文推断，后面破折号应该是解释这种书籍的数量之多，备选名词里适合此处语境的只有[D]books“书籍”和[O]shelyes“架子”。若选前者，一方面和上文提到的books重复，另一方面booksuponshelves后面加上ofthem说不通；选后者的话则衔接自然，符合此处语境和语法，意思是“这种书很多，一书架接一书架的”，故答案为[O]shelves“架子”。备选的名词，refugees“难民”和resolutions“打算，决心”与上下文语义不符，故均可排除。43．【C2】正确答案：N解析：空格位于NewYear’s之后，据此判断应填入名词。根据句意可知，新年愿景一经确定，我们就会加入自助指南类图书读者的行列，企图在那些书中找到最好的自我，故答案为[N]resolutions“打算，决心”。在备选名词中，[D]books干扰较大，有考生可能会认为是开始准备新年的读书计划，这可能是因为他们对NewYear’sresolutions这个短语不太熟悉，如选择books，语法上虽然没问题，但一方面和上文衔接不紧密，另一方面和后半句中的books重复；另外[L]refugees“难民”，不符合语境，故均排除。44．【C3】正确答案：C解析：空格位于in之后，life’schallenges之前，由此推断应填入动名词形式。根据上下文可知，此句句意为：所有优秀文学作品都改变了我们，越来越多的研究表明，在对抗生活带来的挑战时，从小说中得到的支持可以让人们做得更好，故答案为[C]battling“斗争”。备选动词中，符合搭配要求的还有[A]accepting“接受”和[J]immersing“沉浸于”，“接受挑战”从句意上来说没有问题，但是放在上下文中意思讲不通，故排除；immersing“沉浸于”与文意不符，故排除。45．【C4】正确答案：B解析：空格位于动词sharpen之后，名词thinking之前，由此推断应填入形容词。根据上下文可以推测出空格所在句的意思是：阅读已被证明能够使——思维更敏锐，使我们能够改进识别模式，当我们遇到自己和他人莫名其妙的举动时，它也会成为便捷的理解工具。三个备选形容词中，[B]analytical意为“分析的”，[F]critical意为“批判的，关键的”，[I]fictional意为“虚构的，小说的”。其中[I]能与thinking搭配，故排除；就修饰thinking一词来说，analytical和critical都可以，但是从语境中可知，这种思维能够使我们改进识别模式，没有明确提到“批判”或“关键”之类的意思，因此排除[F]，故答案为[B]analytical“分析的”。46．【C5】正确答案：K解析：由空格前出现的more及空格后的disposed可推知，空格处应填入副词。根据句意可知，《应用社会心理学》期刊发表的一篇论文表明：阅读《哈利·波特》促使英国和意大利的年轻人更——，再根据空格前一句提到的小说尤其能使人变得更善于社交可知，这是一种好的变化，故空格所在句应该是一个积极的事例，故答案为[K]positively“积极地；肯定地”。备选副词[E]concretely“具体地”不符合文意，故排除。47．【C6】正确答案：L解析：由空格前出现的stigmatised(使蒙上污名的)minorities“被污名化的少数派”及suchas可推知，空格处应填入名词，且该名词的意思应包含在stigmatisedminorities之内。根据上下文可知，阅读《哈利·波特》促使英国和意大利的年轻人更积极地对被污名化的少数派产生了好感，再结合备选名词[D]books“书籍”和[L]refugees“难民”可知，[L]refugees“难民”符合题意，为答案。48．【C7】正确答案：M解析：空格位于to之后，并与后面的read形成并列关系，因此推断应填入动词原形。根据句意，2013年，社会研究新学院的心理学家发现，文学小说增强了人们——并读懂他人情感的能力。动词备选项中，首先排除非原形的[A]accepting和[J]immersing，因此答案应在[G]emerge，[H]express和[M]register这三个选项中，动作的对象是others’emotions，读者显然不能express他人的情感；emerge的意思也不符合语境，因此均可排除；而register有“登记；记住；使留下印象”的意思，因此[M]为答案。49．【C8】正确答案：G解析：空格位于when引导的时间状语从句中，且位于主语we之后，因此推断应填入动词，再根据整句的时态推断应填入动词原形。根据句意，我们觉得小说是会迷失自我的地方，但是我们一旦______，就会携有我们从喜欢的角色那里得到的灵感。备选的动词原形中，[G]emerge意为“出现，摆脱出来”，[H]express意为“表达”，前文提到小说会令读者迷失自我，but一词明确了后文的转折之意，那么这两个词中能配合表达转折之意的只有[G]emerge“出现；摆脱出来”，表明摆脱这种自我迷失的状态，故[G]为答案。50．【C9】正确答案：I解析：空格位于不定冠词a之后，名词character之前，由此推断应填入形容词。根据句意，参与者强烈感受到小说中的——人物克服重重困难去投票，那么他们在现实的选举中也更有可能会去投票。对照两个形容词备选项，[F]critical“批评的；关键的”和[I]fictional“虚构的，小说的”，只有fictional“虚构的，小说的”符合语境，可以用来修饰character，且与后面的real形成对比，故[I]为答案。51．【C10】正确答案：J解析：空格位于you之前，分析句子结构可知，空格处所缺词与taking是并列关系，因此推断应填入动名词，且可以和in搭配使用。动词备选项中，首先排除[H]express“表达”；答案在[A]accepting“接受”和[J]immersing“沉浸于”之中，空格所在句提到，作家可以帮助你轻而易举地把注意力从某个问题上转移开来，让你如此完全——作者的世界和人生观中，以至于你超越自我，重新养精蓄锐，坚定信心。根据句意，只有[J]immersing“沉浸于”符合语境,因此[J]为答案。PARTVREADINGCOMPREHENSIONSECTIONAInthissectionthereareseveralpassagesfollowedbytenmultiple-choicequestions.Foreachquestion,therearefoursuggestedanswersmarked[A],[B],[C]and[D].Choosetheonethatyouthinkisthebestanswer.Fernandowasaphotographerandrarelywentbacktothesameplacetwice.Oneday,heandIwerearguingabouthowInevertookanyrealvacations.Iwastryingtobuildacareer,andifsomebodyneededme,Ihadtobeavailable,sowhenhesuggestedwegooffsomewhereforthreeentireweeks,hemayaswellhavesuggestedIbungeejumpofftheChryslerBuilding.“Youcanmakeithappen,”Fernandopushed.“Wheredoyouwanttogo?”Youhavetopickyourbattles,andIknewthiswasafightIwasnotgoingtowin.“Youdecide,”Isaid.HechosealittlefishingvillageoffthecoastofSriLankathathe’dvisitedadecadeago,andheplannedoutanitinerary.We’dlandinBangkokandstayfortwonights.Thenwe’dgotoCambodiatoseethetemplesofAngkor,spendtwonightsinSriLanka’slargestcity,Colombo,visittheteaplantationsinKandy,andendwithaweekonthebeach.OnourfirstdayinBangkok,wecrossedtherivertohavebreakfastatarestaurantwherethewateroutsidethewindowcameuptoourtable.Youknowhowgreateveryonceinawhileyouhaveaconversationthatstayswithyouforever?Welookedoutatthewaterthatdayandtalked,reallytalked,abouthowwehadbothcometothisplaceinourliveswhereweknewwewereexactlymeanttobe,withexactlythepersonweweremeanttobewith.Fernandohadn’thadaneasyrelationshipwithhisfather,andlateron,he’dhadanumberofcomplicatedrelationships.Partsofhispastclearlymadehimuncomfortable.Ontheferrybacktoourhotel,hebecamedistantandquiet.“What’swrong?”Iasked.Hewasworriedthathe’drevealedtoomuch.Thesunwasout,andtheskylookedlikeapearl,andwesatthereontheboatforafewminutes,justfeelingitrockandskimacrosstheriver.“Look,”Isaid,“whereveryouhavebeen,whateveryouhavedoneinyourlife,itdoesn’tmatter.We’retogethernow.“Ourtripwasfullofwonderandfun,butwhenwegottoColombo,ourcharminglyshabbyhotelfailedtocharmFernando,soweleftadayearlyforthebeach.Aswedrove,wepassedtwoorphanages.Christmaswasonlyafewdaysaway,andIfeltthatIshouldstopthecarandtrytodosomethingforthechildren,butIdidn’thavethecourage.IguessIwasafraidofbeingperceivedastherichAmericanguywhoshowsupunannouncedandinvadestheirspace.Iamstillhauntedbymymistake.52．Theauthorusesbungeejumptoshow______.A．thefameoftheChryslerBuildingB．thedifficultyinfindingasuitablejobC．theinterestsofbeingaphotographerD．thehardnessofFernando’ssuggestion正确答案：D解析：推断题。首段第三句提及Iwastryingtobuildacareer，…sowhenhesuggestedwegooffsomewhereforthreeentireweeks，hemayaswellhavesuggestedIbungeejumpofftheChryslerBuilding．即当时作者在创业阶段，根本没空，这个建议实现的难度
