知识点解析：本题涉及到ARVs的使用和费用问题，从而将答案出处定位到文章首

段。读段第二、三句提到新药ARVs之所以没有得到广泛应用是因为费用原因，题

干中的foMackofmoney对应文中的financialresourcestowardfindingananswer,故

答案为Y。

标准答案:pre-exposureprophylaxis

知识点解析：本题涉及到艾滋病的传播方式.从而将答案出处定位到文章第八段。

该段第二句提至UDrugsforpre-exposureprophylaxis...HIVhavethesameeffectin

知识点解析：本题定位信息是Dr.PeterDiot和ARVs,从而将答案出处定位到文章

第八段。该段介绍了一组将ARVs用于防止艾滋病传播的试验，目的是为了证明

usingARVsbeforeexposuretoHIVmayhavethesameeffectinprotectingpartnerso

Dr.PeterDiot显然支持这种推测，根据题干语法要求，应将原文中的动名词转换为

动词原形。

irresponsible0

O)abundantH)contained

41、[Cl]

标准答案：H

知识点解析：此空位于which引导的定语从句中，从句缺少谓语动词，故此处应填

一个谓语动词(生去式)。选项中有三个动词，均可作谓语，其中强干扰项

C.compose表示“组成"如England,ScotlandandWalescomposetheislandof

GreatBritain.故此处应该用compose的被动语态。H.contained是正确答案，表

示“包含”。

42、[C2]

标准答案：J

知识点解析：仔细观察会发现该句中语法成分完整，故此处应填副词。该句意思

是：很长时间里，地球表面非常热，以至于任何水分一落下来，就“立刻”被转变成

了蒸气。因此J.immediately符合题意。D.continuously表示“不断地，连续地”，

L.successively表示“继续地”，均不合题意。

43、[C3]

标准答案：A

知识点解析：此处考查形容词。在四个形容词中，只有A.ihick能与上下文衔接

上，这句话意思是：这浓密而不断复原的云层如此之厚，以至于没有一丝太阳光可

以穿透它。I.sally表示“有盐分的"，M.worn表示“用旧的；疲倦的”,

O.abundant表示“丰富的“，均不符合题意。

44、[C4]

标准答案：G

知识点解析：观察上下文会发现此空在句中作主语，且谓语动词是复数形式，故此

处应填一个复数的名词。只有G.outlines是复数的，符合题意。原句的意思是：

大陆和空的海洋盆地的“轮廓”在地球表面被勾勒出来。

45、[C5]

标准答案：B

知识点解析：此空位于介词in之后，故应填一个名词。由前一句可知此处讨论的

是地球笼罩在厚厚的云层里，没有阳光，故应用darkness。

46、[C6]

标准答案：D

知识点解析：此处应填副词。注意下文中的dayandnight,表示“日以继夜地，不

停地”，那么此处应该用D.continuouslyo强干扰项L.successively强调的是“接连

地，不间断地”，不符合题意。

47、[C7]

标准答案：N

知识点解析：此句缺少谓语动词，又因其后有一个imo,可见此处填的是一个不及

物动词。选项中只有N.poured符合题意，表示“倾泄，灌注入工

48、[C8]

标准答案：I

知识点解析：此处考查形容词，作系动词后面的表语。由下文可知，该处是说海洋

里原本盐分很少，后来经过雨水冲刷陆地，带来矿物质，海水才变成的。故此处用

I.saltyo

49、[C9]

标准答案：M

知识点解析：此句的意思是：一旦雨开始下起来，便开始侵蚀陆地，将泥土带人海

洋。只有M.worn有“磨损，侵蚀，消耗”的意思，故选M.。

50、[C10]

标准答案：K

知识点解析：此处应填一个名词。强干扰项F.procedure强调的是“程序，步骤，

进程”，而此处指的是这一“过程”从未停止，不可动摇。故选K.processo

B、Workplaceconflictcanarisefromhonestdisagreements.

C>Workerstodayarclessequippedtodealwithworkplaceconflict.

D、Companiesarefindingnewwaystodealwithworkplaceconflict.

标准答案：R

知识点解析：文章第一段第二句中提到的suchsituation是指在第一句中提到的“在

职场中4同事难以相处的情形“，这种情形源于honestdisagreementsoverdesignor

engineeringissues,B.表达的意思与此一致，故为答案。A.中的minefield出现在文

章倒数第三句，该句只提到Thismakestheworkplaceapotentialminefieldfor

interpersonalconflict,但并未提到“雷区在职场变得越来越普遍"，故排除A。

标准答案：C

知识点解析：文章第三段最后一句指出，不能成功处理人际冲突会poteniially

by。按照常理推断，处理不好人际冲突会导致人们在职业生涯中的退步，.

backwater和with…highpaypassingyouby也暗示了这一点。由此可知，选项C.

reduce"减少，降低”与文意病符。
