16.nono解析：本句話的意思是“那些趾高氣揚(yáng)的人不可能是那些平易近人的人”。這是否定的意思，故答案為no。

17.InsteadInstead解析：由本句句意“…修一臺烤箱或一臺收音機(jī)，買一臺新的、扔掉舊的更容易、更便宜…”可知，肯定是“不修”，又因?yàn)橛薪樵~of，所以應(yīng)填intead。insteadof意為“不做某事”，是固定短語。

18.onon解析：“…的決定”英語表達(dá)為“decisiononsth.”這里介詞需要用on。故答案為on。

19.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他們不認(rèn)為自己比別的不重要的人更好、更優(yōu)秀?！边@里比較的是down-to-earthpersons和別人。故答案為those。

20.butbut解析：這里表達(dá)的前后句意是一種轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。前面說“hemayhavedreams，”而后面“hedoesnotallowthemtoblockhisknowledge…”的意思卻是“但是他也不會讓這些夢想阻擋自己對什么是現(xiàn)實(shí)的理解?！惫蚀鸢笧閎ut。

21.ageage解析：此段話均是在比較不同年齡段的人之間寫字的不同，故此空應(yīng)填“年齡”。

22.pollpoll解析：此句意為“Synovate市場研發(fā)公司的調(diào)查顯示”，poll的意思為“民意調(diào)查”。因此答案為“poll”。

23.accordingaccording解析：accordingto意為“根據(jù)”，為固定短語，本句句意為“根據(jù)對…的嚴(yán)格調(diào)查，…?！?/p>

24.ofof解析：deprivesb．ofsth．為固定短語，意為“剝奪某人的某東西(或某權(quán)利)”。

25.toto解析：“shift”意為“轉(zhuǎn)變”，“從…到…的轉(zhuǎn)變”應(yīng)該用介詞“to”。所以此處應(yīng)填“to”。

26.C解析：由第三段最后一句“Lifeinsuranceisan…isnotsubjecttotaxes，incontrasttootherpersonalinvestments．”可知。

27.C解析：由C中的第一段“Themonastery-likepalace…wasthereligiousandpoliticalcenterofoldTibetandthewinterpalaceofDalaiLamas.”可知。

28.B解析：文中提到，在一家企業(yè)中，最昂貴的資源是人力資源。

29.A解析：由短文第一段最后一句“…managersandprofessionalsspendmorethanhalfoftheirtimeincommunicatingwitheachother．”可知，作者引用Straussmann的話主要是為了表明交流能力的重要性。

30.B解析：由第五段可知雖然美國人聲稱自己攝入的卡路里量下降，但這并不是真的，故A項(xiàng)是錯誤的。美國人總是在食物攝入量上撒謊，所以并不能推出他們知道自己吃了多少，故C項(xiàng)不正確。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句話可以知道D項(xiàng)不正確。

31.EE解析：文章的最后一段中指出“averyfew”、“theelitefew”，而選項(xiàng)中的“averysmallgroupof‘scholars’”也正是指出了這種情況，故應(yīng)選E。

32.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。兩個病人不能證明fatlash運(yùn)動高漲。故D項(xiàng)是錯誤的。

33.C解析：由第二段中的“Second，theyhavetoadoptacomputersystemcalled…”可知。

34.B解析：由短文第二段中的“Differentkindsoftaxeshelptospreadthetaxburden…Thatiswhythethreelevelsofgovernmentinthiscountry．．．thisspreadstheburdenoftaxesamongmorepeople．”。

35.DD解析：此處的上面提到了兩個問題，而選項(xiàng)D中也對兩個問題做出了相應(yīng)的解釋。故應(yīng)選D。

36.B解析：由B中“BarnessitsjustacrosstheriverfromHammersmithinsouthwestLondon，butitcouldnotbemoredifferentfromthenoiseandbustleoftheoppositebank．”可以看出Barnes與其對岸喧囂吵鬧的城市完全不同。所以此處答案為B。

37.A解析：文章第一句話對用基因療法治療Ashanthi所患罕見疾病的成功給與了很高的評價，并在第一段未指出醫(yī)生們對基因療法寄予了極高的期望。因此正確答案為A。

38.D解析：由D中的最后一段“andsoistodescribeitsimplyasamovieaboutgangsters．”可知。

39.D解析：由D中的第三段“Inthesecondpart，thediscussionisextendedtoincludethepossibilitiesofpreventingorabatingemissionsinrelationtothreemodels:．．．”可知。

40.C解析：由短文倒數(shù)第二段可知美國只有四個州沒有importtaxes。美國一共50個州，所以應(yīng)該有46個有importtaxes。

41.C由C中的第二段“Itisnowconsideredthecenterofindustry，transportation，commerceandfinanceinthemid—westarea．”可知答案為C。

42.D由D中的advantage中的第四句話“Windfarmscanbetouristattractions．”可知答案為D。

43.B由短文第三段第一句“Incometaxesarethemainsourceoffederalrevenues．”。

44.B由B中的“However，foldingtherearseattoincreaselug-gagespacewaseasy．”可知。

45.BA

《家有仙妻》這部電影改編于1964—1972年在ABC公司陸續(xù)播出的一部情景喜劇。講的是一個野心勃勃的女巫師與一個凡人的婚姻愛情故事。劇中主角Isabel由NicoleKidman扮演。而Isabel是一名真正的巫師。Isabel厭倦了巫術(shù)給自己帶來的一切，決定回到SanFemand0山谷中的家，靠自己的雙手生活，但是后來卻被Wyat發(fā)現(xiàn)，讓她出演片中的女巫師角色。這樣，一個真正的巫師卻飾演一個虛構(gòu)的巫師。

B

二戰(zhàn)對于美國乃至世界來說都是一件關(guān)鍵性的事件，它具有很強(qiáng)的影響力，而影片《拯救大兵瑞恩》中的故事就發(fā)生在二戰(zhàn)期間。米勒將軍(漢克斯主演)要去營救四兄弟中最小的一個，也是惟一的幸存者——瑞恩(戴蒙主演)，他認(rèn)為要通過敵軍的封鎖線是戰(zhàn)爭中最大的挑戰(zhàn)，但是最艱難的任務(wù)是尋找并安全帶回瑞恩。這個感人的故事為硝煙彌漫、戰(zhàn)事紛雜的l944年涂上一抹莊重的色彩。

C

《美國之隊(duì)：世界警察》這部電影諷刺了各種的政治觀點(diǎn)、主要的電影制作者，甚至別的國家?？催@個題目就感覺美國是世界老大，不管別人承認(rèn)與否。電影場景從法國巴黎開始，通過說明巴黎離美國多遠(yuǎn)。顯示了美國的民族優(yōu)越感。同時劇情反恐的故事反映了美法之間的緊張局勢。隨著劇情的展開，美國這種自豪感越發(fā)的上升。最后說明天下沒有免費(fèi)的午餐的道理。

D

作者認(rèn)為《教父》這部電影盡管看了許多次，但是都沒有找出瑕疵。從電影的各個角度來說，它被認(rèn)作是當(dāng)今最好的5部電影之一。《教父》的影響之大，以至于后來的“團(tuán)伙犯罪”電影都摻雜了這部影片的電影元素在里面。但是這并不是說這部電影只是一部關(guān)于暴力的電影，其他方面，如社會環(huán)境、道德價值、靈魂，權(quán)勢等對人的影響都有所體現(xiàn)。
