2、TheUnitedStatescallsforsomecountriestoresearchthebionicssince1960.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：C

知识点解析：第三段第一、二句话”…theresearchhequestionedinvolvesafieldof

sciencesonewthatmostpeoplehaveneverheardofit.NamedbionicsinI960,this

scienceisthestudyoflivingcreatures,astudyinsearchofprincipleapplicableto

engineering”.并未提到美国号召各国进行此项目的研究，由此可知题干内容在文

中未提及。

3、SAGEneedsamechanicalfrog^eyetoseparatetheimportantdetailsfromthe

unimportantonespickedupbyitsinternationalnetworkofradar"eyes".

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析：第五段倒数第一、二句话指出"Ilsinlernationalnetworkof

radar'EYES'suppliesatremendousmassofunimportantdetails...buildamechanical

frog'seyeintoSAGE…”需要能够区分重要与非重要的细节的雷达装置植入一只机

械青蛙眼，由此可知题干是符合原文的。

4、Themosquitoisunderstudybecauseitssonarismuchmoreefficientthanman-made

sonar.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析：第七段第二句话叙述了"Thebatisunderstudybecausethebat'ssonaris

muchmoreefficientthanman-madesonar".之所以研究蝙蝠的声呐系统是因为蝙蝠

的声纳系统比人造声纳更有效，而不是研究蚊子。由此可知题干不符合原文意思。

5、Transducersareinstrumentslikeamicrophone,TVcamera,radioorphonograph,

whichconvertoneformofenergyintoanother.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析:第九段中间一句话指出"…transducers—instrumentslikea

microphone,TVcamera,orphonographpickuparm-whichconvertoneformof

energyintoanother”.像麦克风、电视摄像头、留声机等传感器可以把一种形式的

能量转换为另一种形式，与题干表达的意思正好相符，因此答案正确。

6、ThefirstformalbionicsmeetingwasheldbytheU.S.NAVYin1962.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析：第十段倒数第二句话指出"Thefirstformalbionicsmeeting―calledby

theU.S.AirForce—washeldin1960".题干提到的1962年与原文不符。

7、TheU.S.RubberCompanyismakingtestsofusingtheelasticskinofadolphinfor

dolphin".用橡胶“皮”进行测试而不是用弹性好的海豚皮来做测试，题干与原文不

符。

8、GeneralElectric'sVisilogisbeingdeveloped,hopefully,topermitaplannedmoon-

proberockettomakeasoftlandingonthemoon'ssurface.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析：笫十三段倒数二、三句话指出"GeneralElectric'seye…hopefUHy,io

permitaplannedmoon-proberockettomakeasoftlandingonthemoon'ssurface".UJ

以允许使用准备好的月球探测火箭在月球表面进行软着陆，与题干相符。

9、Bionicistsdoresearchontheuniquequalityofowls'sensitiveheatingandengagein

designing.

标准答案：sensitivemechanicearsforlisteningtoenemysonar

知识点解析：文章第十四段最后一句话指出”…thoseengagedindesigningsensitive

mechaniccarsforlisteningtoenemysonar…”设计敏感性听觉系统探测敌人的声呐装

置，由此可知此处该填sensitivemechanicearsforlisteningtoenemysonaro

10、TheFoundationbelievesthatthesyntheticnosecanbeusedtodetectfoodspoilage

andwarn.

标准答案：industrialandmilitarypersonnelofthepresenceofpoisonousvapors

知识点解析：文章倒数第三段最后一句话指出"TheFoundationthinksthatitcanbe

usedinearlydetectionoffoodspoilage,andtowarnindustrialandmilitarypersonnelof

thepresenceofpoisonousvapors".基金会认为此种装置可以监测食品的早期腐烂，

在早期被用来检测食品腐烂及存在的有毒气体，并向工业及军事人员提出警告，由

止匕可知止匕处该填industrialandmilitarypersonnelofthepresenceofpoisonousvaporso

11、Bionicswilleventuallyimprovematterswithacomputerthatimitatesthebrain.Itis

quitepossiblethatmanwill.

标准答案：notunderstandthesecretsofthehumanbrainduringthiscentury

知识点解析：根据文章最后一段的第一、二句话可知，只要小小的鸽子的大脑功能

依然无法得到科学的解释，那么在本世纪也无法阐释人脑的秘密，故nol

understandthesecretsofthehumanbrainduringthiscentury即是答案。

A.createI.shockB.worseJ.easilyC.additionalK.benefitD.superiorL.motiveE.

challengeM.forgetF.recallN.helpfulG.importantlyO.uselessH.unexpected

48、[SI]

标准答案：M

知识点解析：联系空格后的宾语从句，父母们对自己年轻时的感受要不是忘记要不

就是回忆，答案在recall与forget中选择。既然年轻人对父母小满(becriticalof),

而且又责怪父母与他们之间有误会，说明在孩子们看来，父母们已经忘记了自己年

轻时的感受，所以才造成了今天的误会。

49、[S2]

标准答案：E

知识点解析：空格前面的a提示所填词应为名词。而该句前面的冒号说明该句是对

前面doingthingsonspurofthemoment的解释，年轻人容易冲动，经常心血来潮，

因此往往更容易接受挑战，故这里应填challenge。本空不能填入shock,年轻人思

想比较简单，往往是更不容易承受shock,并且该词在上下文中没有语义联系c

50、[S3]

标准答案：J

知识点解析：空格所在位置决定此处所填词应为能修饰worry的副词，列表中只有

importantly和easily,而根据后文所述大多数老年人会事先做计划，因此填easily

才能使上下文语义通顺。

51、[S4]

标准答案：H

知识点解析：所填词应能修饰something,而该空的位置决定所填词应为形容词，

因为形容词在修饰something时需要后置。前文指出老年人处理事情都会事先做计

划，而能打乱他们的计划的肯定是没有预料到的事情，因此选unexpected。

52、[S5]

标准答案：I

知识点解析：空格前面的liketo结构提示所填词就为动词原形。而从该段的层次可

以看出后面的一句是对该句的具体解释，而他们所说的内容都是令父母感到不可思

议的，观察列表中能表达这一意思的动词应为shock。

53、[S6]

标准答案：0

知识点解析：空格前的it指代的应该是finalexaminations,前文提到“wewon't

studyforourfinalexaminations”，破折号提示后面的内容是对前面的进一步解楷，

因此应选useless。注意这里如果填helpful的话，前后的意思就无法连贯了，故排

除helpful。

54、[S7]

标准答案：L

知识点解析：空格前面的their和main决定此处所填词应为名词。可一句指出年轻

人会irritatetheirparentswiththeirchoicesinclothesandhairstyles,后面给出原因，

他们这么做是因为feelcutofffromtheadultworld,结合列表中的单词可以看出他

们惹怒父母并不是主要动机，选motive。注意这里motive是名词，意思是“动机，

目的“，而不是形容词.

55、[S8]

标准答案：A

知识点解析：分析本句结构可知所填词应为谓语动词。而前面的So提示前后两句

属于因果关系，前一句指出他们感到自己被隔绝于成人世界之外，后一句是得出的

结果，因此这里应选create,所以他们就建立了自己的文化和群体。

56、[S9]

标准答案：C

知识点解析：空格的位置决定所填词应能修饰enjoymenl。空格前的ihis指代前一

句话：他们的音乐或穿着激怒了父母，这给他们带来enjoyment,前文提到，激怒

父母并不是他们的主要目的，因此这里应该是additionalenjoyment它指得就是后

面一句：年轻人觉得自己是leadersinstyleandtasteo

57、[S10]

标准答案：D

知识点解析：后面的and提示两个that从句并列，后面指出theyareleadersinstyle

andtaste,观察列表中，能体现这个意思的应该是superior。同时从上义提到的

irritatetheirparentsgivesthemadditionalenjoyment也可以推测出这里的意思。
