參考答案

1.healthandeducationhealthandeducation解析：文章第九段中提到雖然在通貨膨脹的調(diào)整下，工業(yè)產(chǎn)品的價格穩(wěn)步下降，但是作為主要知識產(chǎn)品的醫(yī)療和教育的價格卻翻了三番。

2.medicalcostmedicalcost解析：參見文章第三段中“Buttheyneverhadtoworryaboutcompromisinghiscarebecauseofthecos"以及"Thelong-term-careinsurancepaidmorethan..."。

3.shakeupyourroutinesshakeupyourroutines解析：由題干中potentialclients，customers，orpartners可定位到第八個小標(biāo)題下第二段第三句Butallofthemshakeup．．．toyou，whetherthose．．．，potentialcustomers，orpotentialpartners．此處要求填入動詞短語與and前的動詞不定式短語并列。本題考查潛在的客戶、合作伙伴等對個人的發(fā)展所起的作用，根據(jù)原文意思，原句中與makepeoplepayattentiontoyou并列的shakeupyourroutines即為本題答案。

4.6666解析：參見文中第2段第3、4句：“Alvinhadbroughtresearchestothesamespotlessthantwoyearsearlier，whentheyhadseennoneofthesestrangecreatures．．．．individualtubewormscouldincreaseinlengthatarateof33inchesperyear．．．”當(dāng)Alvin不到兩年前到這個地方時還沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)任何這種奇異的生物，而以往的測定結(jié)果表明單個tubeworm每年增長的長度是33英寸，由此可知此處應(yīng)為66。

5.C解析：adverselyaffectsrice，themajorcropreliantonwatering，aswellasothercashcrops．"可知，即使在中國的南方，主要作物和經(jīng)濟作物也會遭受季節(jié)性干旱。選項與文章矛盾。

6.humanactivitieshumanactivities解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞U.S.scientificreport和trends定位到第八個小標(biāo)題下的第三段，可知美國政府委派的一份科學(xué)報告總結(jié)出，有明確證據(jù)表明人類活動的確會導(dǎo)致氣候變化，該報告指出，過去50年間所見的趨勢無法單獨用自然作用來解釋，由此可得答案。

7.“E911”/“enhanced911”?！癊911”/“enhanced911”。解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞preciselocation和GPSsystems定位到第三個小標(biāo)題下的第二段，可知E911使得處理緊急事故者可以通過全球定位系統(tǒng)確定打手機者的準(zhǔn)確位置，由此可得答案。

8.EastandSouthAsia;ChinaandIndiaEastandSouthAsia;ChinaandIndia解析：參見第小標(biāo)題B．RegionalDistribution下面的第2句：Byregion,overhalftheworld'spopulationwasinEastandSouthAsia;China,withl.3billioninhabitants,andIndia．由此可知，在2000年，超過世界人口一半的人住在東南亞、中國和印度。

9.juveniledelinquencyjuveniledelinquency解析：空白處應(yīng)為名詞(詞組)。原文該段最后兩句表明孩子們從小就被灌輸古代的價值觀與看問題的方法，這使他們在青少年時期很少犯罪，也就是說，這些價值觀與看問題的方法可有助于減少“青少年犯罪”，即juveniledelinquency。

10.alphaorbetaalphaorbeta解析：第3個小標(biāo)題SleepandtheBrain部分的第1段第2、3句：Awakingandrelaxedpersongeneratesalphawaves，whichareconsistentvibrationsatabout10cyclespersecond．Analertpersongeneratesbetawaves，whichareabouttwiceasfast．空白處需要waves的修飾成分。原文中的wakingandrelaxed和alert是awake的兩個方面，故醒著時所產(chǎn)生的腦電波是alpha波或beta波。

11.fattyacidsfattyacids解析：由題干關(guān)鍵詞fishandwalnuts定位到第二個小標(biāo)題下第二段第一句和最后一句。第一句指出魚和胡桃富含脂肪酸，最后一句指出食用含脂肪酸的食品可以使我們精神振奮。也就是說，食用魚和胡桃可以使我們精神振奮，因為它們富含脂肪酸。

12.D解析：事實細節(jié)題。題干問提前退休計劃的第一件需考慮的事是什么。題干中thefirstthingtodo與原文thefirststep相對應(yīng)。原句表語部分tofigureoutexactlyhowmuchmoneyyouhaverightnow回答該問題，即弄清楚自己當(dāng)前有多少財產(chǎn)，D項“準(zhǔn)確弄清你的財富數(shù)額”與原文相符。

13.achieverapidprogressagainstthemtooachieverapidprogressagainstthemtoo解析：細節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干定位到文章末段倒數(shù)第二句Thisgivesusgoodmasontohopethatifweacttosolvetheenvironmentalproblemsthatstillremain，wewillachieverapidprogressagainstthemtoo，即：這給了我們一個很好的理由去希望，如果我們行動起來去解決仍然存在的環(huán)境問題，我們也會在對付這些環(huán)境問題上取得顯著的進步，故得答案。

14.B解析：文章第三段中提到當(dāng)機器人醫(yī)生打開你的腦殼時，被麻醉的是你的頭顱，而不是大腦，你是完全有意識的。

15.expensesforbigthingsexpensesforbigthings解析：在本文的第七段中提到：“Aftercoupleshavepaidtheirfixedexpenses，theyoftenfindthemselvesdisagreeingoverhowtospendwhat'sleft—payoffthecreditcardsorgetthatHDTVoneofthemhasbeencraving”。這說明：夫妻之間在“固定開支(theirfixedexpenses)”方面沒有分歧；他們用錢分歧的焦點是“余錢”怎么開銷。

16.22million22million解析：第6段第1句，在美國，已經(jīng)有2200多萬成年人在使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)。

17.parallelparallel解析：本題涉及混合動力汽車的兩種結(jié)構(gòu)模式。HybridStructure部分為答案出處。綜合該部分首段第二句的Oneway，knownasaparallelhybrid及第二段首句中的Bycontrast，inaserieshybrid可知，混合動力汽車有并聯(lián)和串聯(lián)兩種結(jié)構(gòu)模式。

18.anhonestanddeterminedeffort

19.fossilfuelsfossilfuels解析：本題涉及天然氣和石油都不能再生的原因。小標(biāo)題Disadvantage下第三段首句Finally，itshouldbenotedthatnaturalgas，likegasoline，isafossilfuelandcannotbeconsideredarenewableresource為答案出處。

20.AmericaAmerica解析：根據(jù)文章第八段所言，許多罪犯不是逃到美國以避免受罰的，而是由英國人把他們裝到船上運往美國的，因為對英國人而言，他們不是“好公民”。

21.C解析：關(guān)鍵詞理解題。男士說：“一年我們共賺5萬美元，你都花到什么地方了?你不想給杰克攢大學(xué)學(xué)費了嗎?”女士說：“我都花到什么地方了?難道你一天不吃三頓飯嗎?”所以這是一段很有意思的關(guān)于夫妻吵架的對話，關(guān)鍵詞是“$50,000”和“spend”，由此
