1、[RlJ

标准答案：E

知识点。析：文章开头提出，大多数人都把通货膨胀与单个产品或服务的价格上涨

联系起来，而句E认为：“一杯咖啡的价格上涨不能证明发生了通货膨胀。”这是对

第1句提出的人们对通货膨胀错误认识的反驳，并且接着3句提出：“我们必须仔

细区分单个产品的价格上涨与通货膨胀的差别”，说明单个产品的价格上涨不等于

通货膨胀，因此E正确。

2、[R2]

标准答案：G

知识点解析：空缺的是第1段最后一句，前面叙述了单个产品价格上涨不是通货膨

胀，而句G提出：“通货膨胀是价格平均水平的上涨，而不是单个价格的上涨。”

文章先从错误的认识入手，然后加以反驳，进而提出正确的认识，使人印象更加深

刻。

3、[R3]

标准答案：F

知识点解析：第2段第1句提出“如果想要知道超市里水果的平均价格”，很显然这

是一个隐藏的问题，即如何知道水果的平均价格，按照人们正常的逻辑思维，有问

题就会有相应的答案。句F说：“很显然你不可能挑选出你经常吃的水果——没人

知道你到底在想什么”，找水果的平均价格不能从一般水果开始，因为这是不存在

的。下文的“howeve尸是一个转折，”如果找出苹果、橘子、樱桃、桃这些水果的

价格倒是可行的也就是句F先否定了一些错误的想法，为下文的正确做法做铺

垫v

4、[R4]

标准答案：H

知识点解析：句4之前提出了如何计算水果的平均价格，但计算水果的平均价格有

什么用呢?句H提出：“每天计算水果的平均价格就可以发现是否水果的平均价格

在变化。“这是计算水果平均价格的下一步。

5、[R5]

标准答案：C

知识点解析：第3段开头提出：“测量整个经济的通货膨胀就是用这样的方法。先

确定整个产品的平均价格水平，然后看这个平均水平有没有变化。”但还没有提到

什么样的变化才是通货膨胀，因此句C”平均价格的上涨就是通货膨胀”正确。

6、[R6]

标准答案：B

知识点解析：第4段开头提出，“平均价格水平也有可能下降”句B“平均价格的下

降就是通货紧缩”与前一句紧密相关，为正确答案。

7、[R71

标准答案：A

知识点解析：此处缺少的是段落的主题句。第2句是举例说明如果苹果的价格上涨

而其他水果的价格下降，则水果的平均价格不变。既然是举例就是对上一句的具体

说明，因此缺少的句子应该是对这种现象的概括。句A意为：“由于通货膨胀和通

货紧缩是以平均价格水平来衡量的，有可能单个产品价格变化而不影响平均价格水

平。”显然句A为正确答案。

8、[R8]

标准答案：D

知识点解析：前一句提到“如果苹果的价格上涨而其他水果的价格下降，则水果的

平均价格不变句D提到“在这种情况下，变化的是相对价格而非平均价格”。最

后一句提到“苹果的相对价格提高只是说明苹果比其他水果贵“，是解释相对价格

的。由单个水果价格上涨与平均价格的关系，提到相对价格，进而对相对价格做出

解释，层层相扣，因此D为正确答案。

26、[Cl]

A^answers

responses

C、decisions

D、changes

标准答案：A

知识点解析：从文章第一句得知，科学家希望得知疾病从哪里来，如何阻止它的传

播。在它们寻找答案的研究中，有些科学家会去访问地方博物馆。"answer”是“答

案”，科学家的研究是寻找答案。

27、[C2]

A、Therefore

B、Whatsoever

C、Instead

D、Since

标准答案：C

知识点解析：去博物馆并不是科学家在休息，而是要从博物馆的收集物中，找到答

案。因此,选择“instead”，意为“而是”,此处为转折。

28、[C3]

A、consequences

B、clues

C>efforts

D、results

标准答案：B

知识点解析：“lookingforclues”意思是“寻找线索”，以帮助科学家研究疾病，挽救

C^outcast

D、outfall

知识点解析：“hantavirus”是“汉他病毒”，从virus我们可以得知是一种病毒，此处

为举例说明一个疾病暴发时候，科学家从博物馆中找到线索。所以此处应填写

“outbreak”,疾病的爆发。

B、chooses

C、confirms

D、compares

D、source

标准答案：D

知识点解析：“sourceoftheoutbreak”，意思是“疾病爆发的来源”，后面的句子告诉

我们，有些人甚至怀疑是恐怖主义者所为，可见此处是表达未知的才是疾病的来源

和原因。其他选项的词义不符。

32、[C7]

A、consid
