［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

A.soundpatterns

B.grammaticalstructures

C.vocabulary

D.bothBandC

答案:C［解析］由第三E殳中间一句："Theyfallbehindourwestern

languagesnotin...butintheirvocabularies...?可知,未开化的

部落的语言跟西方语言相比，其真正落后的一面不是在发音方式或语

法结构上，而是在词汇方面。因此C为正确答案。

2.Theauthorsaysthatgrunt-and-groanformsofspeechare

found.

A.nowheretoday

B.amongtheAustralianaborigines

C.amongeasterncultures

D.amongpeoplespeaking"backward"languages

答案:A［解析］由第三段的第一句:"...studyof'backward,

languagesthatnospokentongueanswersthatdescription

today"可知，只会发哼哼声或呻吟声的语言如今已不复存在。故选

A。

3.Accordingtotheauthor,languages,whethercivilizedor

not,have.

A.thepotentialforexpandingvocabulary

B.theirownsoundpatterns

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

C.anabilitytotransferideas

0.grammaticalstructures

答案:A［解析］由第三段中：nAIIlanguagesseemtopossessthe

machineryofvocabularyexpansionH可知，任何语言者R有扩大词

汇的能力。因此A为正确答案。

4.Theauthorsaysthatprofessionallinguistsrecognizethat

A.westernlanguagesaresuperiortoeasternlanguages

B.alllanguagescomefromgruntsandgroans

C.thehierarchyoflanguagesisdifficulttounderstand

D.thereisnohierarchyoflanguages

答案:D［解析］从第二段的后半句："...justastotheprofessional

5.Whichofthefollowingisimpliedinthepassage?

A.Thestudyoflanguageshasdiscreditedanthropological

B.Thestudyoflanguageshasreinforcedanthropologistsin

theirviewthatthereisnohierarchyamongcultures.

C.Thestudyoflanguagesisthesameasthestudyof

anthropologists.

D.Thestudyoflanguagescastsanewlightupontheclaimof

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

anthropologists.

答案:B［解析］通读全文尤其是最后一段："...allculturesaretobe

viewedindependently,andwithoutideasofrankorhierarchy"

可知，文章主要是为了阐明语言学家对语言没有等级之分的研究，其

目的是为了进一步阐述人类学家的观点，即不同文化之间无等级之分。

因此正确答案为

6.Thetitlethatbestexpressestheideasofthispassageis

A.GoetheandDante

B.TheCharacteristicsofRomanticism

C.Goethe,theRomanticist

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

D.Goethe'sAbundantLife

答案:C［解析］文章通过分析歌德诗歌的艺术特点来说明他是浪漫主

义诗人的代表(Romanticist)。C项正合题意。

7.Goethe'sworkshowsalackof.

A.avisionofreality

B.repetitions

C.formalpolish

0.knowledgeofShakespeare

答案:C［解析］根据第一段末尾："Asaresult,nearlyallhisworks

haveseriousflawofstructure,ofinconsistency,ofexcesses

andredundanciesandexternalities"可知,歌德的诗歌在结构、

连贯性方面存在缺陷，并且过于冗长，因此他的诗歌缺乏规范的修饰。

故正确答案为

Co

8.AcharacteristicofromanticismNOTmentionedinthis

passageis.

A.interestinnature

B.modernityofideas

C.youthfulattitude

0.simplicityoflanguage

答案:D［解析］根据第二段对浪漫主义诗歌特点的描述可知，D项中

"语言的简洁"没有被提及，因此D为正确答案。A项中"对自然

的兴趣"，B项中"观点的现代性"，C项中"年轻的精神”均在文

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

章中提到。

9.Goetheiscalledthepoetofthemodernmanbecause

A.hedevelopedhisfaith

B.helivedlongerthanShelleyandKeats

C.hepresentsmanytwentieth-centuryideas

D.hisworkhasseriousflaws

答案:C［解析］原文第二段倒数第二句："...sincesomany

twentiethcenturythoughtsandattitudesaresimilarlybased

onthestimulusRomanticMovement,GotteStands,as

particularlythemodernman...”,因为二十世纪的思想和态度是

建立在以歌德为代表的浪漫主义的基础上，所以歌德也被看做是现代

人。因此正确答案为C。

10.Accordingtothispassage,Goethe.

A.stimulatedmanymodernideas

B.dislikedDanteandVirgil

C.shouldbecalledaclassicist

D.wasillogical

答案:A［解析］根据文章最后内容可推断很多现代的思想观点都是在

以歌德为代表的浪漫主义运动的刺激下产生的，也就是说在某种程度

上,是歌德促进了这些现代思想的产生。因此A为正确答案。

D.areadingspeedtooslowforanon-seriousbookisalsotoo

答案:B［解析］第一段最后两句意思是:阅读消遣类小说即使阅读速度

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

慢也不会给你带来多大乐趣；而以这种速度去读较有难度且需认真思

考的文章，速度就太快了。因此B符合句意，为正确答案。

15.Whichofthefollowingcanbethetitleofthepassage?

A.Readingandlistening.

B.Differencebetweenhighlyeducatedandpoorlyeducated.

C.Practicereadingskill.

0.Differenceinthespeedandefficiencyofreading.

答案:D［解析］纵观全文可知，作者主要讨论了阅读速度及效率的问

题。因此正确答案为D。

符合题意为正确答案。A是Olmsted和Vaux的生平；B是纽约市的

旅游业；C是纽约市十九世纪艺术的典范。

17.Accordingtothepassage,whichistheprettiesttimeof

A.thesiteofCentralPark

B.thegiftpresentedtoNewYork

C.askyscraperinNewYork

D.theproposeddesignforCentralPark

答案:A［解析］第三段首句："...submittedtheirlandscapingplan

forrectangularparceltwomilesnorthofthetown'scenter"可

知，rectangularparcel位于市中心以北两英里处，这里是他们设计

建造中央公园的地点。因此说rectangularparcel就是中央公园的位

置所在。因此正确答案为A。

19.Accordingtothepassage,beforeOlmstedandVaux

A.aromanticplace

B.aninfertile,marshyspace

C.agreenandhillypark

［大学英语考试复习资料］专升本英语分类模拟72

答案:B［解析］根据第三段中："Thebarrenswampytract...as'a

pestilentialspotwheremiasmicodorstainteverybreathofair'"

可知，这是一片荒凉潮湿的地带，一些人在那里擅自搭建房屋，还有

一家用动物骨头熬制胶水的工厂。据当时的报道，那片区域是一个瘟

疫肆虐、空气腐臭的地带。因此可以判断，那里以前是一个贫瘠、潮

湿而又肮脏的地方。故选B。

20.Itcanbeinferredfromthepassagethattoday's

A.enthusiasmforsport

B.skillatdesigningfactories

答案:D［解析］从文章最后一段中:"Landscapearchitectsstill

speakreverentlyofOlmsted'sgeniusandforesight"可知,环

境美化专家们至今还满怀敬意地谈起Olmsted的天才和预见能力，

现在的纽约已不是130年前的纽约了，而中央公园历经百年直到今

日还吸引着大批的游客。这说明Olmsted对纽约的未来发展有着极

为准确而深远的预见性。故选D。

答案:A［解析］文章没有具体给出"cold-bloodedanimal"的定义,

但给出了"warm-bloodedanimal”的定义:Mammalsare

warm-blooded,thatis,theyhaveameansofkeepingthe

temperatureoftheirbodiesquiteconstantdespitethenormal

temperaturechangesoftheoutsideworld.故可判断出

"coldbloodedanimal"的定义应与之相反。另外给出的

的例子也可知其义,故正确答案为
