1、Whatisthescientists'newdiscovery?

A^One'shairgrowthhastodowiththeamountofwatertheydrink.

B、Aperson'shairmayrevealwheretheyhavelived.

C、Hairanalysisaccuratelyidentifiescriminalsuspects.

D^Thechemicalcompositionofhairvariesfrompersontoperson.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：定位于笫一段，B选项为其同义表达。

2、Whatdoestheauthormeanby"You'rewhatyoueatanddrinkM（Line1,Para.3）?

A、Foodanddrinkaffectone'spersonalitydevelopment.

B>Foodanddrinkpreferencesvarywithindividuals.

C、Foodanddrinkleavetracesinone'sbodytissues.

D^Foodanddrinkareindispensabletoone'sexistence.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：答案在定位点的前后段都可以得出，比较简单。

3、WhatissaidabouttherainfallinAmerica'sWest?

A、ThereismuchmorerainfallinCaliforniathaninUtah.

B、Thewaleritdeliversbecomeslighterwhenilmovesinland.

C^Itschemicalcompositionislessstablethaninotherareas.

D、Itgathersmorelightisotopesasitmoveseastward.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：定位在原文第五段。这段范围的意思大致是“氢和氧这两种原子有同

位素（同位素对于学理的同学要好理解一些，就是同是氢氧原子，有的原子量大一

些，水就重一些，原子量小一些，水就轻一些，但这点原文并没有解释，所以加大

了这里理解的难度），最重的雨会首先降下来，结果导致了在太平洋洋面上形成的

雨会在离海岸较近的加利福尼亚州先降下来，所以选B。（此时的雨比较重，是含

大原子量同位素的水，而轻一点的雨会等到更内陆的地方比如犹他州再降下来。）

4、WhatdidCerling'steamproduceintheirresearch?

A、Amapshowingtheregionaldifferencesoftapwater.

B、Acollectionofhairsamplesfromvariousbarbershops.

5、WhatisthepracticalvalueofCcrling'sresearch?

A、Ithelpsanalyzethequalityofwaterindifferentregions.

B、Ithelpsthepolicedeterminewhereacrimeiscommitted.

C、Ithelpsthepolicenarrowdownpossibilitiesindetectivework.

D、Ithelpsidentifythedrinkinghabitsofthepersonunderinvestigation.

标准答案：C」

知识点解析：根据文章最后可得出答案。

6、Accordingtothispassage,whichofthefollowingconstitutestheuniquecharacterof

U.S.?

A、Itsexcessiveuseofair-condilionintz.

Itsadvancedcomputerizedcivilization

C、Itspublic'sretreatingintoself-pursuit.

D、Itsgreatestcontributiontohumancivilization.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：推断题。定位到"TodaymostAmericansneedtotakeair—conditioning

forgrantedtohomes,offices,factories,theatres,shops,studios,schools,hotels,

andrestaurants.”一句可知美国人在生活中认为空调是理所当然之物。因此不难推

断，他们在没必要使用空调的地方也在过多地使用空调，因此A为正确答案。

take...forgranted意为“认为某事理所当然

7、Accordingtothepassage,thechiefconsequencebroughtaboutbythewide

applicationofair-conditioningis.

A、thelossofhumancapacitytoadapttochangesinclimate

thereductionofsocialcommunicationsofneighborhoodlife

C、theactivelifestyleofallitsusers

D、thedecreasedhumanproductionandpower

标准答案：B

知识点解析:定位到原文最后•段”...forcedfamiliesintoretreatingintofamilieswith

closeddoorsandshutwindows,reducingtheinteractionsofneighborhoodlife.”一句

可知：空调使得人们窗门紧闭，从而使社区之内人际互动交流大大减少

neighborhoodlife意为“社区生活”。需注意的是，选项A并未对应题干中的

Accordingtotheauthor...,而是对应原文中的somemedicalexpertssuggestthat...,

千万不要被此类的命题圈套蒙蔽了。

8、Thetoneofthispassagerevealsthatair-conditioning.

A、haslittleeffectonitsusers

hasmoreeffectonbodythanonmind

C>bringsmorebenefits:handamagetoitsusers

D、doesharmaswellasgoodtoitsusers

标准答案：D

知识点解析:定位原文最后一句Ifso,air-conditioningisonlylikemanyothergreatly

usefultechnicaldcvelopments（好的方面）thatliberatemallfromnaturebyincreasinghis

productivityandpowerinsomeway——whileindirectlyweakeninghiminothers（不好的

方面），丁是doesharmaswellasgoodtoitsusers是正确答案。

9、Whobenefitstheleastfromair-conditioningaccordingtotheauthor?

A、Medicalexperts.

Manufacturers.

C、Factorylaborers.

D、Consumers.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：Consumers是坡精确的。原文直接批判空调的一句话是“…forced

familiesintoretreatingintofamilieswithcloseddoorsandshutwindows,reducing（he

interactionsofneighborhoodlife,显然accordingtotheauthor,consumers”为从空调

中受益最少的。而ABC三个选项中，B,C可以作为byincreasinghisproductivity

的受益者，A的工作性质则完全与空调无关。

10,Whatistheauthor'soverallattitudetowardsair-conditioning?

A、Neutral

B、Objective

C^Critical

D、Compromising

标准答案：C

知识点解析：推断题。定位到原文“Ithas,atwill,forcedfamiliesintoretreatinginto

familieswithcloseddoorsandshutwindows,reducingtheinteractionsofneighborhood

life.”一句。此句听起来很像批判。atwill意为“随意、任意”。

A、universityresearchersknowlittleaboutthecommercialworld

B、thereislittleexchangebetweenindustryandacademia

CNfewindustrialscientistswouldquittoworkinauniversity

D、fewuniversityprofessorsarewillingtodoindustrialresearch

标准答案：C

知识点解析：文章第一段就说"Itisprettymuchaone-waystreet.Whileitmaybe

commonforuniversityresearcherstotrytheirluckinthecommercialworld,thereis

verylittletrafficintheoppositedirection.”高校研究者至U商界去碰运气可能很常见，

但是相反的方向却人很少。也就是说很少有商界的人愿意回归学校做纯学术研究。

所以选C,很少有工业科学家愿意放弃自己的工作而去一个高校工作。indusirial

scientists在文中指的就是商界人士。

12、Theword"dctcrrcnt"(Iinc3,Para.l)mostprobablyreferstosomethingthat.

A、keepssomeonefromtakingaction

helpstomovethetraffic

CNattractspeople'sattention

D、bringssomeoneafinancialburden

标准答案：A

知识点解析：上文说的是很少有商界的人愿意回高校的。原因就在于薪酬(pay),

后面接着具体解释：没人能接受换个高校的工作后工资下降。所以delerrenl这个

词是表明原因的，要么是A选项阻碍因素，要么是C选项促进因素。而从上下文

看薪酬是阻碍商界人士去高校工作的，也就是阻碍因素，所以选A。

13、WhatwasHelenLee'smajorconsiderationwhenshechangedherjobinthemiddle

ofhercareer?

A、Flexibleworkhours.

B、Herresearchinterests.

C、Herpreferenceforthelifestyleoncampus.

D、Prospectsofacademicaccomplishments.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：Hermainreasonforreturningtoacademiamid-careerwastotake

advantageofthegreaterfreedomtochooseresearchquestionso利用更大的自由来选择

研究的问题。也就是说之前不在academia的时候，没有那么多的选择空间：什么

赚钱做什么，现在可以自己根据自己的喜好来choose了。所以选B。

14>GuyGrantchosetoworkasaresearcheratCambridgeinorderto.

A、dofinanciallymorerewardingwork

B、raisehisstatusintheacademicworld

C、enrichhisexperienceinmedicalresearch

D、exploitbetterintellectualopportunities

标准答案：D

知识点解析：第三段的最后一句话是这么说的：Hetooka30%salarycutbutfeltit

worthwhileforthegreaterintellectualopportunities.所以这题选Do

15、Whatcontributioncanindustrialscientistsmakewhentheycometoteachina

university?

A、Increaseitsgraduates*competitivenessinthejobmarket.

Developitsstudents5potentialinresearch.

C、Helpittoobtainfinancialsupportfromindustry.

D、Gearitsresearchtowardspracticalapplications.

标格答案：A

知识点解析:答案在最后一段:Theyarcalsowellplacedtobringsomethingextrato

thetcachingsidcofanacademicrolethatwillhelpstudentsgetajobwhenthey

graduateo他们给学术九色的教书面带来了一些额外的东西，这些东西在学生毕业

时可以帮助他们找工作。所以选A：提高毕业生在就业市场上的竞争力。

标准答案：D

知识点解析:根据第一段Thisiscallcd^knockingdownthegoods,forthebidding

endswhentheauctioneerbangsasmallhammeronatableatwhichhestands.“可知结

束之所以叫做knockingdown是因为主持拍卖会的人会在物品卖出时拍案成交，故

D正确。

A^becauseittookplaceatthenight

B、asignalforthecrowdtogather

madewhileitstayedalight.可知之所以点蜡烛是为了限定拍卖的时间,故D正确。

20、Anauctioncataloguegivesprospectivebuyers.

A、thecurrentmarketvaluesofthegoods

B>detailsofthegoodstobesold

26、[Ri]

标准答案：C

知识点解析：看前后邻句，找不到再扩大范围找。此题前句没看头，看后句：Ms

similartothemusicyoulistento…捉住主语it及它对应的music,从7个句子中选出

唯一用music开头的C句即可。

27、[R2]

标准答案：B

知识点解析：前句whenpeoplearemoretired.根据指代原则，确定答案在B加F

里面：B.Themusicgivesthemextraenergy.及F.Theygetasmuchas$4milliona

yeariftheirsongsareused.F明显不符合文章发展逻辑。因此选B。

28、[R3]

标准答案：F

知识点解析：利用因果关系。前句why?其他人高兴什么?从剩下的A,D,E,F里

找原因，就能发现F选项中“钱”是很自然的原因。

29>[R4]

标准答案：D

知识点解析：前一句描述tiredofficeworkers,后一句描述supermarketshoppers,

后句出现Supermarketshoppersbuy38percentmoregroceries.利用并列关系，可推

断D为正确答案。Factoryworkersproduce13percentmore.主语和百分数都是---

对应关系。

30、[R5]

标准答案；A

知识点解析:利用并列原则，后面有Butotherpeopleenjoyhearing...,故选择

A.Somepeopledon^likeMuzak.

31、[R6]

标准答案：M

知识点解析：take…fbrgranted,“把……视作理所当然

32、[R7]

标准答案：H

知识点解析：the后面需要一个名词。通常我们的朋友数量不多。这里应该平均来

讲，学生一般有6个朋友，所以选H。

33、[R8]

标准答案：C

知识点解析：the后面需要一个名词。这里要表示的是朋友之间的亲密“程度”和他

们分享兴趣爱好的原因大不相同，选C。

34、[R9]

标准答案：J

知识点解析：参考上题解析。

35、[R10]

标准答案：B

知识点解析：oaccount,“把...列入考虑

36、[R11]

标准答案：I

知识之解析：but前后表示转折。前面说的是友谊是建立在争论和讨论上的，but后

应该说通常情况下有共同的想法、共同的爱好的人更容易成为朋友。

37、[R12]

标准答案：G

知识点解析：参照上题解析。

38、[R13]

标准答案：A

知识点解析：此处需要动词原形。Relyon,“依赖，依靠”。朋友之间越亲密，越

相互依赖。

39、[R14]

标准答案：E

知识点解析：此处需要动词原形。朋友之间应当忍耐不好的习惯和包容不同的观

点。所以选E。

40、[R15]

标准答案：O

知识点解析：此处需要名词作breakdown的宾语。朋友之间应该打破年龄、等

级、种族的“障碍”，所以选0。
