）thelittlerainthatfelllastnight.

問題1選項

A.skipped

B.soaked

C.retrieved

D.absorbed

【答案】D

【解析】【試題解析】考查動詞辨析。A選項skip“跳躍、遺漏”；B選項soak“浸濕”；C選項retrieve“檢索、恢復(fù)”；D選項absorb“吸收、承受”，由題干可推測地面快速“吸收”雨水，句意為：這么多星期沒有下雨，地面很快吸收了昨晚的少量雨水。故正確答案選D。

3.單選題

問題1選項

A.atrandom

B.athightide

C.indrymounds

D.ingreatquantities

【答案】D

【解析】考查詞組辨析。inabundance表示“大量的”。A項atrandom“胡亂地，隨便地”，B項athightide“處于高潮中”，C項indrymounds“在干土堆中”，D項ingreatquantities“大量”。句意：海灘上有大量的沙子，經(jīng)常被吹到內(nèi)陸形成沙丘和沙山。根據(jù)題意該題選D。

4.單選題

問題1選項

A.generatenewseeds

B.newseedsgenerated

C.generatesnewseeds

D.newseedsaregenerated

【解析】考查語法知識。本句的that用來引導(dǎo)定語從句修飾先行詞seeds，定語從句中有三個并列的動作：fall，takeroot，generate；三個動作形式保持一致，因此A選項符合題意。

5.單選題

）womanI’veeverknown.

問題1選項

A.artificial

B.merry

C.considerate

【解析】形容詞辨析題。artificial人造的；merry愉快的；considerate體貼的，考慮周到的；brilliant杰出的。句意：奶奶總是關(guān)注身邊人的需求、愿望和感受。她是我所認識的最體貼的女人。選項C符合語境。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:C

第3題:A

第4題:C

第5題:D

【解析】1.細節(jié)事實題。文章第一段第二句提到他們真正的期望是獲得足夠的教育來為社會提供人力（Whattheyreallymeanistogetjustenougheducationtoprovidemanpowerforyoursociety），因此選項D符合題意。

2.判斷推理題。文章第二段提到高中文憑是必要的，如果沒有的話，除非你是蕭伯納或者愛迪生，如果你是他們，你小學輟學都行（unlessyournamehappenstobeGeorgeBernardShaworThomasAlvaEdison,andyoucansuccessfullydropoutingradeschool），因為他們就算沒有文憑，也在各自領(lǐng)域中脫穎而出，因此選項C符合題意。

3.細節(jié)事實題。文章第五段倒數(shù)第一句話提到美國失業(yè)或未充分就業(yè)的博士人數(shù)比世界上其他國家要多（TherearemorePh.D.sunemployedorunderemployedinthiscountrythananyotherpartoftheworldbyfar），由此可知選項A符合題意。

4.判斷推理題。根據(jù)文章第五段可知很多博士就業(yè)問題并不是很理想，由此可知選項C表述是錯誤的，符合題意。

5.判斷推理題。無論是雇主、雇員還有博士生本人都是屬于社會中的一員，一系列狀況都是社會發(fā)展導(dǎo)致的，因此作者批判的是這個社會，因此選項D符合題意。

7.單選題

Youhavetopaya(n)premiumforexpressdelivery.

問題1選項

A.extratip

B.extrabonus

C.extracharge

D.extraprice

【答案】C

【解析】【選項釋義】

A.extratip額外的小費B.extrabonus額外的獎勵

C.extracharge額外費用D.extraprice額外價格

【考查點】名詞辨析

【解題思路】原句的意思是如果要寄特快專遞的話，就要收取額外的費用，原詞premium“附加費”，C選項extracharge“額外的服務(wù)費”符合該語境。

【干擾項排除】

A選項extratip“額外的小費”，小費一般是給服務(wù)員的，如餐廳服務(wù)員或者理發(fā)師，為了感謝他們的服務(wù)；

B選項extrabonus“額外的獎勵”，原句是要收費，而不是給獎勵；

D選項extraprice“額外價格”，側(cè)重于指溢價，比如快遞費本來是8元，但是由于疫情，快遞小哥少，寄快遞漲價了（假設(shè)），要10元，中間漲的2元就屬于extraprice“額外價格”。

【句意】寄特快專遞的話，你得付額外費用。

8.單選題

（）oftheburdenofice,theballoonclimbedupanddriftedtotheSouth.

問題1選項

A.Tobefree

B.Tofree

C.Freeing

D.Freed

【答案】D

【解析】句意:擺脫了冰塊的負擔之后，氣球向上朝南方飄去。

語法題?？疾榉侵^語動詞。句子的后半部分已經(jīng)完整，因此空格處應(yīng)填入動詞的非謂語形式，前半部分作為整句的狀語。句子的主語是“氣球”，動詞free與其之間是被動關(guān)系，故選D項。

9.單選題

Maryhasjustboughtherself______dress.

問題1選項

A.anexpensivebluecotton

B.acottonblueexpensive

C.ablueexpensivecotton

D.acottonexpensiveblue

【答案】A

【解析】【選項釋義】

A.anexpensivebluecotton一條昂貴的藍色的棉質(zhì)的B.acottonblueexpensive一條棉質(zhì)的藍色的昂貴的

C.ablueexpensivecotton一條藍色的昂貴的棉質(zhì)的D.acottonexpensiveblue一條棉質(zhì)的昂貴的藍色的

【考查點】形容詞排序。

【解題思路】英語中當名詞前有多個形容詞做定語時，這些形容詞通常遵循一定的排序規(guī)則：限定詞（冠詞、指示代詞、物主代詞、數(shù)詞等）+表示觀點的描述性形容詞+形狀、大小、長短、高低+年齡、新舊+顏色+國籍、地區(qū)+物質(zhì)材料+中心詞；所以這里的空格應(yīng)該填anexpensivebluecotton，A項正確。

【干擾項排除】B、C、D選項都不符合形容詞排序規(guī)則。

【句意】瑪麗剛給自己買了一件昂貴的藍色棉質(zhì)裙子。

10.單選題

Whenthecrowdsawthemoviestaronthestreet,shoutsandcheers（

問題1選項

A.brokethrough

B.brokeup

C.brokeforth

D.brokeoff

【答案】C

【解析】考查詞組辨析。breakthrough“突破”；breakup“分手，打碎”；breakforth“噴發(fā)，爆發(fā)”；breakoff“暫?！薄＞湟猓寒斎藗冊诼飞峡吹诫娪懊餍菚r，歡呼聲爆發(fā)了。選項C符合題意。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:A

第3題:B

第4題:D

第5題:C

【解析】第1題:1.主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知，本文是一篇傳記，主要講述的是現(xiàn)代舞的先驅(qū)——IsadoraDuncan對舞蹈的巨大貢獻。所以選項D正確。

2.判斷推理題。題干問的是“對IsadoraDuncan來說，大自然代表了什么？”根據(jù)第二段的一、二句“她對自然運動形式的探索使她進入了自然。她認為運動應(yīng)該像樹木的搖擺和大海的波濤一樣自然，應(yīng)該與大地的運動協(xié)調(diào)一致。”也就是說，IsadoraDuncan把大自然當做舞蹈運動的模型，將舞蹈和自然相結(jié)合。所以選項A正確。

3.細節(jié)事實題。原文第三段主要講述的是Duncan對舞蹈動作的改變；第四段主要講述的是對舞蹈服裝的改變；第五段主要講述的是對音樂運用的改變。所以只有選項B“舞臺”的改變在原文中沒有提及。

4.判斷推理題。根據(jù)原文第四段的內(nèi)容“她摒棄了紫色內(nèi)衣，芭蕾舞鞋和具有限制性的服裝，取而代之的是飄逸的希臘寬松外衣、光著腳和披散著的頭發(fā)?！庇纱丝芍珼uncan的服裝是輕松自由的，相對于芭蕾服裝來說，沒有那么多的限制性，所以選項D正確。

5.判斷推理題。根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容“她的個人生活就像她的舞蹈一樣令人興奮和古怪?！庇纱丝赏茢?，接下來可能要講到的內(nèi)容是Duncan生活的其他方面。選項C正確。

Weareallforyourproposalthatthediscussion（）.

問題1選項

A.beputoff

B.wasputoff

C.shouldputoff

D.istoputoff

【答案】A

【解析】句意:我們都贊成你關(guān)于推遲討論的提議。

語法題?？疾閟hould的用法。名詞proposal(提議，建議)引導(dǎo)的同位語從句應(yīng)該用should(可省略)+動詞原形。而且，discussion與putoff之間是被動關(guān)系，因此A項符合正確表達。

【答案】第1題:A

第2題:C

第3題:C

第4題:D

第5題:B

【解析】1.判斷推理題。文章第一段作者在描寫奧爾島及周圍環(huán)境時，用了大量關(guān)乎情感色彩的形容詞和動詞加以述說，充分調(diào)動讀者的想象，引起感官上的共鳴。A選項“情感上有吸引力，富有想象力”；B選項“理性的，邏輯上精確的”；C選項“事實詳細的，客觀的”；D選項“模糊不清的”。因此A選項正確。

2.細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)題干可定位到文章第三段“Thebestroomwasshutupanddarkened,withonlysomuchlightascouldfallthroughalittleheart-shapedholeinthewidow-shutter,forexceptonsolemnvisits,orprayer-meetings,orweddings,orfunerals,thatroomformednopartofthedailyfamilyscenery.（最好的一間屋子關(guān)得嚴嚴的，昏暗的，只有從百葉窗上一個心形的小洞透進來的光線，因為除了在莊嚴的拜訪、祈禱會、婚禮或葬禮上，這間屋子是不構(gòu)成家庭日常生活的一部分的。）”，由此可知A選項“它的許多窗戶都用木板封住了”；B選項“已經(jīng)把家具搬走了”以及D選項“是家里最忙的房間”都不正確，C選項“只在正式和隆重的場合使用”符合題意。因此C選項正確。

3.判斷推理題。根據(jù)題干可定位到文章第四段“Atablescouredtosnowywhiteness,andalittlework-standwhereonlaytheBible,theMissionaryHerald,andtheWeeklyChristianMirror,beforenamed,formedtheprincipalfurniture.（一張擦得雪白的桌子，一個小針線架，上面放著事先提到的《圣經(jīng)》《傳教士傳令報》和《基督教鏡報》，構(gòu)成了這里的主要陳設(shè)。）”，由此可推斷出房子的主人可能是位宗教信徒。A選項“很少有客人”；B選項“喜歡現(xiàn)代宗教”；D選項“不喜歡做家務(wù)”說法都不夠確切，C選項“可能是宗教信徒”符合題意，因此C選項正確。

4.判斷推理題。聯(lián)系全文，隨處可見筆墨眾多的環(huán)境靜態(tài)描寫，而描寫房子時并未提到有人物活動的動態(tài)描寫。因此可推斷出該房子是死者的。A選項“很少有人參加葬禮”；B選項“捕魚是一份有保障的職業(yè)”；C選項“這個島人口密集”都不準確，只有D選項“該房子屬于死者”符合題意，因此D選項正確。

5.細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)題干可定位到文章最后一段“Onefeature,however,mustnotbeforgotten,agreatsea-chest,whichhadbeenthecompanionofZephaniahthroughallthecountriesoftheearth.（然而，有一件事不能忘記，那就是一個航海用的大箱子，這是西番雅周游世界的伙伴。）”，由此可推斷出Zephaniah可能是個水手，且游歷全球時只有一個從海底撈起來的箱子做伴，略顯孤獨。A選項“他身材魁梧”；C選項“總是待在家里”；D選項“他很節(jié)儉，省了很多錢”說法都不準確，B選項“寧愿過水手的孤獨生活”準確，因此B選項正確。

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:B

第3題:C

第4題:A

【解析】1.細節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“在作者的國家，哪類人受益于經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展？”文章第四段最后一句話提到“所有人都在新經(jīng)濟中發(fā)展”(AlltypesofpeopleareflourishingintheNewEconomy)，因此選項D符合題意。

2.細節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“下列哪個表述是正確的？”文章第五段提到“非技術(shù)勞動力的償付水平與以前不同了……”（Unskilledlaborisnotvaluedtothedegreethatitoncewas,andunskilledworkersarepaidaccordingly），選項B“非技術(shù)人員傾向貧窮”符合題意。

3.細節(jié)事實題。題目問的是“作者認為收入差距將……”。文章第三段第一句話提到“收入差距是驅(qū)動經(jīng)濟引擎的汽油”（Incomedisparityisthegasthatrunsoureconomicengine），因此它不可能消失，所以選項C“一直存在”符合題意。

4.主旨大意題。題目問的是“最后一段的主要思想是什么？”文章最后一段第一句提到變得富有并不是每個人的最終目標（Itisalsoimportanttorememberthatitisnottheultimategoalofeverypersontobefabulouslyrich），因此選項A符合題意。

【解析】1.判斷推理題。根據(jù)第一段的內(nèi)容，在倫敦股市收復(fù)了9.11以來的全部損失后，投資者被鼓勵繼續(xù)將他們的儲蓄投入股市。盡管美國道瓊斯工業(yè)平均指數(shù)在紐約被診斷出炭疽病例后在周五暴跌，該建議還是出現(xiàn)了。九月份，美國的消費支出也下跌了超過經(jīng)濟學家預(yù)測的三倍，將股價推回到襲擊前的水平之下。由此可知，“9?11”事件后，英國富時100指數(shù)立即下跌，選項A符合原文。

2.細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)第二段最后兩句“SomecommentatorspredictthatAmericawillendurearecessionlastingsixmonths.TheyalsoexpectBritaintosufferasharpslowdown.Butanalystssaythemarketiswellplacedtoabsorbanyfurtherbadnews.一些評論家預(yù)測，美國將經(jīng)歷長達6個月的經(jīng)濟衰退。他們還預(yù)計英國經(jīng)濟將急劇放緩。但分析師表示，市場已經(jīng)做好準備，可以消化任何進一步的壞消息?！盇選項“美國經(jīng)濟將能夠抵御進一步的衰退”和B選項“紐約的道瓊斯指數(shù)將很快停止下跌”在文中沒有
