14.B

15.B

16.atat解析：某大學(xué)的教授，應(yīng)為“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案為介詞“at”。

17.firstfirst解析：根據(jù)題意，作者想在這里做一個(gè)比較，而比較的對(duì)象是目的。這里作者僅僅給出了兩個(gè)目的，所以這里是和第一個(gè)目的進(jìn)行比較。故答案為first。

18.alsoalso解析：由35題解析，拼寫有問題的學(xué)生必定握筆習(xí)慣不好。

19.fastfast解析：由上一句句意“不耐心代表了年輕的腦力工作者們的特點(diǎn)。”可知，本句“他們想…成名”中的空處應(yīng)填“快速地”。

20.reasonsreasons解析：本段的第一句話提出問題，問為什么在結(jié)算處擺設(shè)了那么多的商品。很明顯，后面的文章對(duì)這個(gè)問題進(jìn)行回答，并列舉了原因。故答案為reasons。

21.onon解析：focuson意為“集中于”，為固定短語(yǔ)。

22.diddid解析：據(jù)38題解析，由于while意為“盡管”，才有后面起強(qiáng)調(diào)作用的did，意為“確實(shí)”，言下之意有轉(zhuǎn)折之意。

23.whowho解析：此空后的句子應(yīng)為teacher的定語(yǔ)從句，故此空處應(yīng)填who，引導(dǎo)修飾人的定語(yǔ)從句。

24.oftenoften解析：本句話的意思是“那些自我感覺很了不起、內(nèi)心充滿驕傲的人，總是不需要理由的就被人認(rèn)為是趾高氣揚(yáng)的人?！惫蔬@里答案為often。

25.populationpopulation解析：由下一句“越來(lái)越多的人正在制造更多的、垃圾?！笨芍?，此處應(yīng)指“膨脹的人口”，即explodingpopulation。

26.B解析：由第一段可知，兩人是因?yàn)榉逝侄凰瓦M(jìn)醫(yī)院的，故B項(xiàng)正確。A、C項(xiàng)文章中未提到。兩個(gè)病人不能證明fatlash運(yùn)動(dòng)高漲。故D項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的。

27.C解析：由文章第二段可知C不對(duì)，而A、B、D文中均提到了。

28.C解析：A、B、D在文中均提到，是正確的，而C不對(duì)，文中提到“Youwouldexpectthemtofindtheirfriendsfromtheirprofessionalassociates，butthisisnotthecase．Rather，theyprefertomakefriendswiththenormalfolkintheirdistricts．”

29.D解析：由本文第二段可知A、B、C均正確，只有D不對(duì)。

30.B解析：由文章倒數(shù)第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetalltothehead．”可知。

31.A解析：第二段第二句“Mainlybecauseprivatecompanieshavehadlittleincentivetopursueit．”意思是說(shuō)“私企生產(chǎn)流感疫苗的積極性不高”。接下來(lái)作者介紹了制作疫苗的復(fù)雜工序，由此可以推斷出流感疫苗生產(chǎn)工藝復(fù)雜、成本高。第二段又明確指出了私企不愿意生產(chǎn)流感疫苗的其他原因：利潤(rùn)率低、需求不穩(wěn)定、此外由于流感病毒每年都不同，因此生產(chǎn)數(shù)量不能過大，由此也可推斷出生產(chǎn)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)性大，如果生產(chǎn)多了就會(huì)損失很大。因此正確答案為A。

32.A解析：由第四段最后兩句話可知，基因并不能決定一切，因此減肥不會(huì)因?yàn)榉逝只虻母蓴_而沒有任何作用，故A項(xiàng)正確。B項(xiàng)和作者的觀點(diǎn)是相反的。D項(xiàng)文中未提到。

33.A解析：由A中的第一段“Thepopulationofthecityisabout800,000anditcoversanareaofover69squaremiles．”可知答案為A。

34.C解析：由第三段中的“Forthosecompaniesusingtechnology，theperdocumentcostofinformationprocessingisonlyafractionofwhatitwasafewyearsago．”可知。

35.C解析：越來(lái)越多的人贊成Stiglitz的觀點(diǎn)，批評(píng)自由貿(mào)易和全球化，從“Suchclaimsarenolongereredible，forStiglitzispartofasmallbutgrowinggroupofeconomists，sociologistsandpoliticalscientists…”growing一詞可以看出答案。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

36.B解析：talkshop意為“談公事”。

37.B解析：由B中的第四句話“ThenorthernpartoftheTempleiscircularwhilethesouthernpartissquare,”可知。

38.D解析：由短文第一句“Opinionpollsarenowbeginningtoshowthat，whoeveristoblameandwhateverhappensfromnowon，highunemploymentisprobablyheretostay．”可知。

39.D解析：fib意為“撒小謊”。

40.B解析：由B中的第二段最后幾句話“Millerisorderedtotakehissquadbehindenemylinesonadangerousmissiontofindandretrieveoneman：PrivateJamesRyan．”可知。

41.E由上下兩段可知，只有E放在此處可使上下文銜接。

42.C短文解析

A

艾爾斯米爾學(xué)校是過去兩年內(nèi)國(guó)內(nèi)發(fā)展最快的私立學(xué)校之一。增長(zhǎng)帶來(lái)了100萬(wàn)美元的投資項(xiàng)目和新的低年級(jí)學(xué)校的建立。高年級(jí)學(xué)校中提供住宿，有多種A層次課程，并率先使用可視會(huì)議技術(shù)。學(xué)校內(nèi)各種設(shè)施齊全多樣，設(shè)有體育場(chǎng)館及劇院。走讀學(xué)生有校車接送，住宿學(xué)生可以住進(jìn)整修一新的宿舍。這里的學(xué)術(shù)水準(zhǔn)很高，提供有很多獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金，鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生充分發(fā)揮其潛力。

B

埃奇希爾學(xué)校擁有l(wèi)00多年的歷史，教育具有獨(dú)立思想的學(xué)生，使他們能夠適應(yīng)快速發(fā)展的技術(shù)世界。學(xué)校注重早期教育，重視學(xué)術(shù)水準(zhǔn)，鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生發(fā)揮其特長(zhǎng)。學(xué)校的校訓(xùn)是“超越完美”，并已獲得全國(guó)的承認(rèn)。另外，學(xué)校還重視傳統(tǒng)、紀(jì)律和道德價(jià)值的教育。未來(lái)世界的要求和家庭方式的變化都在教育中得到考慮，使學(xué)生在任何領(lǐng)域內(nèi)都做到出類拔萃。

C

學(xué)校擁有出色的學(xué)術(shù)設(shè)施。小教堂、醫(yī)學(xué)中心、體育設(shè)施一應(yīng)俱全。學(xué)校招收中上水平的女童，不僅僅強(qiáng)調(diào)學(xué)習(xí)，音樂、戲劇、公共演講、辯論能力都被鼓勵(lì)。六年級(jí)學(xué)生可以學(xué)到傳統(tǒng)的課程和比較流行的其他課程。另有商業(yè)研究和健康社會(huì)護(hù)理可以提供直接就業(yè)的途徑。這里強(qiáng)調(diào)每個(gè)女孩充分發(fā)揮其潛力，人盡其用，培養(yǎng)自信和服務(wù)社會(huì)的精神。

D

瓦爾帕萊索大學(xué)建于1859年，是一所私有獨(dú)立的路得教會(huì)的大學(xué)，由于具有杰出學(xué)術(shù)造詣，又注重深造而聞名。學(xué)院設(shè)置了5個(gè)本科學(xué)院——藝術(shù)科學(xué)院、工商管理學(xué)院、工程學(xué)院、護(hù)理學(xué)院以及基督學(xué)院，還有許多研究生項(xiàng)目，包括法律、工商管理方向的碩士點(diǎn)。在校生4000多人。90％的教職工擁有博士學(xué)位或其專業(yè)的最高學(xué)位。由于優(yōu)秀的生源以及認(rèn)真的教職工使得學(xué)校成為本地區(qū)數(shù)一數(shù)二的學(xué)校。畢業(yè)6個(gè)月內(nèi)．超過90%的畢業(yè)生進(jìn)入專業(yè)領(lǐng)域工作或繼續(xù)深造。

答案解析:

C中提到“Theschoolcatersforgirlsofaverageabilityandabovebutitisnotnarrowlyacademic．”。

43.D第二段第一句提到“…butoldwastefulhabitsdiehard”，可知雖然美國(guó)人開始回收利用一些物品，但是那種浪費(fèi)的舊習(xí)慣依然不好消除。最后一句話“．．．itCanbecomestrongeronlyasAmericansseetheneedforitmoleclearly．”也說(shuō)明了只有當(dāng)美國(guó)人真正意識(shí)到環(huán)保的重要性，他們才能更好的具有環(huán)保意識(shí)，言外之意就是說(shuō)他們依然沒有完全意識(shí)到環(huán)保的重要性。故應(yīng)選D。

44.B由B中的第二段最后幾句話“Millerisorderedtotakehissquadbehindenemylinesonadangerousmissiontofindandretrieveoneman：PrivateJamesRyan．”可知。

45.BB第一段提到“…h(huán)asfourmoledevastatingdisastersthantheoldversion”。2021年廣東省茂名市公共英語(yǔ)五級(jí)(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學(xué)校:________班級(jí):________姓名:________考號(hào):________
