第二部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）

第一节单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）

从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

21.It'snaturalthattheeducationofyoungwillbehotand

serioustopicatthemeeting.

A./；/B.the；a

C./；theD.the；/

解析：选Bo考查冠词的用法。theyoung意为“年轻人”，定冠词用于某些形容词前表

示一类人或事物；第二空填不定冠词，限定可数名词topic。

22.Infact,we'vedevelopedaculturepeoplecontinuallychallenge

themselvestoimproveupontheirsuccesses.

A.whereB.when

C.whichD.that

解析：选A。where此处相当于intheculture。

23.ItisthatMaryisgettingdivorced.She,sjustgotmarriedlast

month.

A.believingB.admirable

C.unbelievableD.unbearable

解析：选Co句意“真不可思议！玛丽要离婚了，她上个月才刚刚结婚。”考查

unbelievable表示“令人难以置信的”之意，符合题意。believing是“信任他人的”；

admirable是“值得钦佩的"；unbearable是“难以忍受的”。

24.IthedinnerIbrokeaglass.

A.wascooking；asB.wascooking；when

C.cooked；asD.cooked；when

解析：选Bo句意“我正做着晚饭，突然打碎了一个玻璃杯。”考查了when用作并列连

词，与进行时连用，表示“正在做某事时，这时候……”之意的用法。

25.—CanIhelpyou,sir?

一I'dliketoexchangethisshirtalargersize.

A.forB.with

C.ofD.to

解析：选Ao句意“先生，我能为您效劳吗？”“我想将这件衬衫换件大一号的”。

exchange意为“交换”。exchange...for...意为“用...换....；exchange...with...

意为“和……换……”。

26.一Howaboutfishingthisweekend?

-great.

A.SoundB.Sounds

C.SoundingD.Sounded

解析：选Bo句意“周末去钓鱼好吗？”“听起来不错”。sound可作系动词，意为“听

起来"oSoundsgreat.=That/Itsoundsgreat.听起来不错。

27.Withthecostoflivingsofast,likemanypeople,Ifindithard

tomakeendsmeet.

A.risingupB.puttingup

C.goingupD.bringingup

解析：选Co句意“由于生活成本迅猛上涨，和许多人一样，我觉得很难让收支平衡”。

riseup意为“起义”；putup意为“修建"；goup意为“上升；上涨"；bringup意

为“抚养，提出”。

28.Thetwovillagesaredividedbyariverandthereisa(n)bridge

overtheriver.

A.smalloldstoneB.oldsmallstone

C.stonesmalloldD.smallstoneold

解析：选Ao句意“在这两个村子之间有一条河，河上有一座古老的小石桥”。多个形容

词修饰名词时，排列顺序通常是关系最密切的离名词最近。我们平时常用“九字令（限、

描、大、形、龄、颜、籍、物、类）”。

29.Hehurriedhome,lookingbehindashewent.

A.forthetimeB.fromtimetotime

C.atnotimeD.innotime

解析：选Bo句意“他赶紧回家，一边走一边不时地向后看。"fromtimetotime表示

“时而不时地”之意，符合题意。forthetime是“在当时”；atnotime是“在任何

时候都不”；innotime是"立刻，马上”,均为干扰项。

30.Hissuccess________hishardwork.

A.resultedinB.resultedfrom

C.resultedofD.ledto

解析：选Bo句意“他的成功源于他的努力工作。”考查resultfrom表示“起因

于……”之意的用法；resultin是“导致……"；leadto是“导致，产生……”。

31.theyhavegreataffectionfortheirparents,manyChinesepeople

remain“tooshy“toexpresstheirloveforthem,accordingtoanonline

survey.

A.UnlessB.Although

C.WhetherD.Since

解析：选Bo考查状语从句。根据句意：一项网络调查发现，尽管很多中国人很爱他们的

父母，但他们还是很害羞来表达对父母的爱。可知句子之间为让步关系，可排除A和Do

whether尽管也能引导让步状语从句，但意思是“不管……”，语意不通，所以选B。

32.—ItissaidthatMr.WanghaswonfirstplaceintheEnglishcontestfor

teachers.

andoneday.

A.Sohashe；sowillyou

B.Sohehas；soyouwill

C.Sohehas；sowillyou

D.Sohashe；soyouwill

解析：选Co考查倒装。第一个sohehas表示对说话人所说的情况的确定：“他的确得

了第一名"；第二个sowillyou表示“你也会的”。

33.Parentsexpressedrelieftheirchildren,whohadbeenathometoo

long,couldreturntoclasssoon.

A.whenB.why

C.thatD.what

解析：选C。考查名词性从句。that引导reli6f的同位语从句。

34.Alltheclassmates________laughterwhenDavidactedoutthefunnyplay.

A.brokeoutB.burstinto

C.turnedoverD.gaveup

解析：选Bo考查动词短语的词义辨析。breakout“发生”；burstinto"突然……起

来"；turnover“打翻”；giveup“放弃”。句意为:看了大卫滑稽的表演，所有的同

学都放声大笑了起来，故选B。

35.一Youarewantedonthephone,John!

一I'mwashingmyhairnow.

A.Takeiteasy!

B.Mindyourownbusiness.

C.Askhimtoleaveamessage.

D.Youarewelcome!

解析：选C。考查情景交际。从后面的J?mwashingmyhairnow可知第二个人现在不能

接电话，所以让打电话的人留个口信，C项符合语境。

第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题L5分，满分30分）

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最

佳选项。

36.A.excitedB.confused

C.discouragedD.worried

解析：选B。大象是庞然大物，“我”对只用一根小绳就能拴住它们感到迷惑不解。

37.A.impossibleB.doubtful

C.uncertainD.obvious

解析：选D。根据句中的“atany.time"，可知这里强调大象能够轻而易举地逃走。

38.A.andB.or

C.butD.so

解析：选C。“theycould"与后面的"theydidn't”形成对比。

39.A.reasonB.result

C.caseD.choice

解析：选A。下段解释了大象不逃走的原因，因此这里选A。

40.A.smallerB.bigger

C.sameD.different

解析：选Co根据文末的"becauseofalimitingbeliefyoudevelopedyears

ago",可知这里是表示同样大小的绳子，在大象小时候能拴住它；大象长大后，仍然相信

这绳子能拴住它。

41.A.stillB.almost

C.narrowlyD.hardly

解析：选A。根据后面的“sotheynevertry^,可知大象认为绳子仍然能拴住它。

42.A.didB.failed

C.triedD.succeeded

解析：选Bo根据下段对"selflimitingbeliefs"的形成所作的解释，可知这里是表示

因为一次“失败”就认定自己不能做某事。

43.A.yourselfB.others

C.yourteacherD.yourpartner

解析：选A。文章讲的是对“自我”的认识，因此这里选A。

44.A.examplesB.stories

C.resultsD.causes

解析：选Ao根据上下文，句中的these指上段末提到的“Icannotdance"、"I'm

notgoodatmath”这些事例。

45.A.responsibleB.honest

C.conciousD.depended

解析：选Ao根据下文对“selflimitingbeliefs"形成的解释，可知这里是表示：你自

己对此负责。

46.A.stoppedB.originated

C.changedD.referred

解析：选B。本句大意为：自我约束的想法源于你对以前失败经历的反应。

47.A.interestedB.inspired

C.boredD.disappointed

解析：选D。D与前面的“embarrassing”对应。本句中，which引导定语从句，修饰前面

的remarkso

48.A.beliefB.experience

C.embarrassmentD.remark

解析：选A。本句中的it与48空指的为同一事物，即指前面提到的“Alimitingbelief

thatsaysyou'repooratmath”。

49.A.representB.compare

C.mixD.replace

解析：选Do此句中的it同样指上文提到的"Alimitingbeliefthatsaysyou,re

pooratmath”。这里是表示用后一个观点（Iamgoodatmath）取代此观点。

50.A.actionB.thought

C.aimD.plan

解析：选析thought与前面的it均指limitingbelief。

51.A.actB.think

C.quitD.win

解析：选Ao后文提到的“takeamathcourseortogoonline”是指为提高数学能力

而做出的具体行动。

52.A.atB.by

C.forD.in

解析：选C。for在这里表示目的。

53.A.improvedB.judged

C.realizedD.recognized

解析：选A。这里选improve与上文的"Iamgoodatmath”对应。

54.A.beginB.continue

C.keepD.finish

解析：选A。本句意思为：整个过程非常简单，你今天就可以开始行动。

55.A.stuckB.involved

C.unfinishedD.changed

解析：选Ao文章前两段提到大象因为一直相信小绳能拴住它们，因此一直被困在那里。

stuck在这里表示“困住的，被难住的”。

第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

B.playingTetriscouldenhancethememoryflashbacksinhealthyvolunteers

C.playingPubQuizincreasedthefrequencyofflashbacks

D.playingPubQuizdeclinedthefacultyofmemoryinthehealthyvolunteers

解析：选Ao细节理解题。第一段提到“InearlierlaboratoryworktheOxfordteam

showedthatplayingTetrisonlineaftertraumaticeventscouldreducememory

flashbacksinhealthyvolunteers.,由此可知“以前的实验证明玩俄罗斯方块游戏可

以减少人们对痛苦的记忆”。

57.Theunderlinedwordinthefifthparagraphprobablycanbereplacedby

A.extendedB.delayed

C.strengthenedD.spread

解析：选Ao词义猜测题。此处表示“时间被延长至六个小时”。故选择extend表示“延

长”之意;而delay是“延误”；strengthen是“加强”；spread是“扩张”。

58.Whatcanweknowfromthetwoexperiments?

A.ThevolunteerswhoplayedtheTetrisexperiencedasmanyflashbacksasthose

C.ThevolunteerswhoplayedTetrishadthefewestflashbacksinthethree

groups.

D.ThevolunteerswhoplayedPubQuizweremoreabletorecallspecificdetails

解析：选Co推理判断题。文中第五段提到"ThosewhoplayedTetrisagainhad

significantlyfewerflashbacksthantheothertwogroups.,由此可知，那些打俄

罗斯方块游戏的志愿者获得的痛苦回忆最少。

59.Thetextwaswrittenmainlytotellus________.

A.playingTetrisisstilleffectivewhateverthesituationis

B.thedifferencebetweenplayingTetrisandplayingPubQuiz

C.howtoreducetheflashbacksoftheinjury

D.playingTetriscanhavethepowertoreducepeople'sflashbacksofinjury

解析：选Do主旨大意题。全文主要描述了打俄罗斯方块的游戏与玩以文字为基础的游戏

相比可以减少人们对痛苦瞬间的回忆。
