[模拟]考研英语模拟93多项选择第1题:Whatunusualquestionmaydoctorsaskwhengivingkidsacheckupnexttime?A.Howmuchexercisetheygeteveryday.B.Whattheyaremostworriedabout.C.Howlongtheirparentsaccompanythemdaily.D.Whatentertainmenttheyareinterestedin.参考答案:D答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(what)的归纳。题目要求考生回答医生下次给孩子做体检时会问什么不寻常的问题。独白一开始就出现和这个题题干相同的表达,“下次带孩子来检查身体(Nexttimeyoubringyourkidsinforacheckup),医生会询问孩子们对什么娱乐活动感兴趣(tastesinentertainment)w,可见正确答案是D选项。这是听力材料的第一句话,从这句话可知整个短文的主题与children和entertainment有关。这道题再次提醒了材料首句的重要性。录音接着提到:上周,美国医协会和一些孩子的家长一起做了一个调查,评估孩子们看多少电视,看些什么电视,玩什么电游,在网上访问哪些网站,是否在没有父母陪伴的情况下看少儿不宜的片子,喜欢什么音乐和读什么书。上述这些调查问题都是和娱乐活动有关的,其中很多词汇,如video,computergames,websitesontheInternet,watchTV等给考生答题都给出了提示。C选项中parentsaccompany具有干扰性,A、B选项的干扰词都来自录音后面部分。考生注意不要光寻听关键词,一切还是应以听懂为主。第2题:Theacademysuggeststhatchildrenunderagetwo.A.getenoughentertainmentB.havemoreactivitiesC.receiveearlyeducationD.haveregularcheckups参考答案:B答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(what)的推理。题目要求考生推断医学院建议两岁以下的儿童应该做什么。考生一共会听到很多次
1"academy",所以应该仔细辨认,是否同时还听到与"childrenunderagetwo”相关的内容。接着上一题的内容,录音谈到“(调查结果使)医生很担忧,孩子们在电视机前花的时间太多,没有充分地锻炼身体,并且可能超重。协会也担心孩子们从娱乐媒体中得到的信息会使他们更具攻击性,性方面更积极”。听到这里,考生可以预测协会的建议应该是“少看电视和其他娱乐节目,多锻炼身体”。果然考生接着听到"Childrenneedactivitiestostimulatethebrainduringthefirsttwoyearsoflife”,从而推知B选项”参与更多的活动”是正确答案。错选A选项“参与足够的娱乐活动”表明考生未听懂文章大意,还不明白医生的立场和倾向。错选C选项“接受早期教育”或D选项“进行常规体检”则表明是考生只听到个别单词而猜测的答案。第3题:Accordingtothereport,children'sbedroomsshould.A.benoplaceforplayB.benearacommonareaC.havenoTVsetsD.haveacomputerforstudy参考答案:C答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(how)的归纳。题目要求考生回答根据调查报告,儿童的卧室应该是怎样的。在独白的最后部分是协会主席的一段话:儿童需要反馈和社会化。大一点的孩子应该在一个公共的场所里看电视。他们的卧室应该是无电子媒介地带,这样他们就能有一个安静的地方读书、学习、玩耍或仅仅是放松一下。当听到bedrooms,考生应捕捉住答案"electronicmedia-free"zones及后面的解释,它们可以帮助考生判断出其含义就是C选项“不放置电视机”。考生错选其他选项可能是因为只捕捉到前后的几个单词"play"、wcommonarea和"study”。第4题:Accordingtothespeaker,whatshouldonepayspecialattentiontoifhewantstosaveup?A.Familydebts.B.Banksavings.C.Monthlybills.D.Spendinghabits.参考答案:D答案解析:
2本题考核的知识点是:判断thespeaker意图。题目要求考生回答据thespeaker所言,如果想要存钱应该特别注意什么。该段材料的内容是围绕存钱而展开的。录音一开始谈到的是存钱对于年轻人的必要性:“20刚出头,有了第一辆自己的车,你的职业生涯也或多或少开始走上正轨了,现在准备拥有自己的家了。但是你开始担忧。也许你欠了一些债,或许你攒钱没攒多少。就你现在的开销来说,你好像不能马上攒很多钱”。显然,接下来thespeaker会论述怎样攒钱:“如果你想要知道怎样减少费用(cutcorners),有一个明显的方面需要注意,那就是消费习惯(Spendinghabits)”。要答对这道题,考生需要把握thespeaker的观点和思路,对录音内容的大意有个了解。其次在录音中考生可多次听到Spendinghabits或habit,并且thespeaker举出了大量的例子来说明它的重要性,因此它就是正确选项。第5题:habit?A.;B.:C.;D.:Howmuchcanapersonsavebyretirementifhegivesuphispack-a-day000.000.000.$1000000.$190$330$500参考答案:B答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(howmuch)的记忆。题目要求考生回答如果有人改掉每天一包烟的习惯,到退休时他能够存多少钱。录音中点出了主题spendinghabits后,开始具体论述怎样攒钱。这个题目的选项都是关于钱的数字,而且数额都比较大,因此考生在听的过程中可以有目的地去听。它实际上考查了考生对句子的理解和对数字的记忆。录音中出现的数字比较多,先是谈把喝汽水的钱攒下来:whenyou)resettoretire...youraccountisshortby$190000,接着是攒吃饭的钱:over40years,goingouttodinnertwiceamonthat$40eachtimeamountstohalfamillion,然后是省下抽烟的钱:Evenapack-a-daycigarettehabitwilllightenyourretirementaccountby$3300000至此,考生首先要利用题干中的关键词pack-a-day区分出所需要的数字,其次从thespeaker罗列的一系列节约消费行为的表述中,考生也不难猜出lighten(yourretirementaccount)的大概含义是“节省,减少”。第6题:Whatshouldonedobeforepayingmonthlybills,ifhewantstoaccumulatewealth?A.Investintoamutualfund.B.Usethediscounttickets.C.Quithiseating-outhabit.D.Useonlypaperbillsandsavecoins.参考答案:A答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(what)的记忆。题目要求考生回答如果有人要积攒钱财,他在付每月的账单前应该做什么。接着上一题的内
3容,录音继续罗列其他节省开销的形式:不看有线电视和不买时尚的耳环。然后,录音中的so表明thespeaker开始总结以上谈话。“积累财富(accumulatingwealth)的第一个提示是:关注自己的消费习惯。这里提供几个小窍门帮助你省钱,即便你发誓你无法做到"。可见,下面要继续介绍其他省钱的方法。首先是停止买那些正在贬值的东西。在你付每月的账单前,先拿出25美元存入共有基金中。考生注意,四个备选项都可以说是accumulatewealth的方法,关键是要听到payingmonthlybills时才找到了正确答案。考生可能不熟悉mutualfund这一表达,但是A选项保留了原词,因此考生也无须过多地去考虑它到底是什么意思,就把它当做一种有利可图的投资就行了。第7题:Whichwordbestdescribesthelawyer'spredictionofthechangeindivorcerate?A.FallB.Rise.C.V-shape.D.Zigzag.参考答案:A答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(how)的记忆。题目要求考生回答哪个词最恰当地描述了律师对离婚率的预测。首先当我们听到一位女士向Mr.Glieberman提问“您觉得婚姻破裂的高比率有没有改变”时,应立刻敏感地知道被采访的律师应该是下面将要回答问题的男性。该律师一开始就谈到“离婚率正开始达到稳定并且在未来一两年内开始下降,虽然下降的速度不大”,因此A选项“下降”是正确答案。B选项“上升”、C选项“V字形,即先下降后上升”和D选项“Z字形,曲折上升”都不对。第8题:Whatdopeoplenowadaysdesiretodoconcerningtheirmarriage?A.Toembracechangesofthought.B.Toadapttothedisintegratedfamilylife.C.Toreturntothepracticeinthe'60sand'70s.D.Tocreatestabilityintheirlives.参考答案:D答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(what)的记忆。题目要求考生回答当前人们对于他们的婚姻最想做什么。律师回答第一个问题中,预测了未来离婚率的变化,然后分析其原因“紧缩的经济使婚姻出现危机的夫妇很难独立地去承担离异后要面对的家庭开支。而且我认为自动荡的60年代和70年代后,有一种思想的回归,即认为家庭有价值。在这种多变和家庭瓦解的潮流下,人们看起来更想营造生活中的稳定”。正确答案D选项就是对话中的原话。其他三个
4选项出现了录音中的个别词汇changes,thought,disintegratedfamily和’60sand'70s,可见考生还是要以听懂录音为前提,不能光听关键词。第9题:Whydidsomepeoplechoosenottodivorce20yearsago?A.Theyfearedthecomplicatedprocedures.B.Theywantedtogoagainstthetrend.C.Theywereafraidoflosingface.D.Theywerewillingtostaytogether.参考答案:C答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(why)的归纳。题目要求考生回答20年前人们为什么不选择离婚。当女士提第二个问题“现在的离婚率如何”时,律师谈到,“现在三分之一的婚姻以离婚告终,这个比率比20年前要高很多,那时候人们的哲学是‘不论怎样我们也要熬过去,因为社会要求这样,为了面子,我们要呆在一起'(forappearances'sake;westaytogether)wo根据题干中的关键词20yearsago,考生寻找到所需的信息并加以理解,从而可知C选项“他们害怕丢面子”是正确答案。第10题:Yearsagoadivorcedmaninacompanywouldhave.A.beenshiftedaroundthecountryB.haddifficultybeingpromotedC.enjoyedahappierlifeD.tastedlittlebitternessofdisgrace参考答案:B答案解析:本题考核的知识点是:对特定信息(how)的推理。题目要求考生回答几年前公司中的离婚男子会怎样。律师在回答第二个问题时接着谈到“离婚不再是很不体面的事情”,他先拿离异的罗纳德•里根仍然在1960年当选为总统,与以前的政治家因为离异而落选作比较。然后谈到公司结构的情况也一样,“离婚者很少能够被提升到领导岗位(moveduptheexecutiveladder),而现在公司欢迎离过婚的人,因为公司可以把他派到全国各地去(shifthimaroundthecountry)而不用担心要安置他的家人或确保他的家庭生活愉快”。由此我们可以推断出,数年以前离婚男子是不受公司欢迎的,所以很难被提拔。B选项是正确答案。考生关键要从上面一段录音中推测出moveduptheexecutiveladder就是指提升。多项选择Theflower-sellingbusinessrestsinnosmallpartonhumandrama.Oneblossomcanfuelaflamingpassion,calmaragingjealousy,salveasickness.Backinthe1960syoucouldjointhesocialrevolutionjustbystickingaflowerinyour

6直到前十年,在世界范围的花卉生产大多数是家庭经营,同样的农场培育一代一代的同样的花。但是现在美国人一年花在花木上将近150亿美元,是上代人的四倍,有3万花商和2万3千个超市。花业第一次成为庞大的全球性企业,充满无情的竞争和政治斗争。顾客购买花卉甚至已发展成通过互联网与互不见面的公司进行交易。再普一家都是旧金山市场上的老手。威豪的父亲1921年从意人利移民来开始建立家庭农场。市场上人人都知道的再普说,“这是穷人的职业,人人都可以搞”。几十年来家庭职业发展兴旺,即使在30年代的大萧条时期也是如此。当时美国人很穷连肉都买不起,但是仍然设法买“一个吉祥和一幸福的小东西”放在桌上。在60年代再普扩大远程运花,为加州30多位农民装运花卉,送往全国各大市场。有一个时期,他成为当地广播台的名人,每天早晨向旧金山人介绍该在当地花商处购买什么花。他说他要尽力说服人们要象在老欧洲的人们那样,每天都用花,而不只是在特殊场合用。但这不是老欧洲。象许多其他移民一样,再普一家人在将成为硅谷的地方创建了加州花场。到80年代后期,他们发现自己以及蝴蝶花,金鱼花以及郁金香处在高技术革命的中心。再普说,“每个人都想买我们,因此我们成了房地产开发商”。他们拆了温室,把资产租给技术公司。但是离开旧金山花市是难以想象的,他说,“我爱这个市场;只想看看人民以及来自个世界的花。”第11题:Tostickaflowerinyourhairhelpsyou(to).A.makeyoucalmdownB.fuelahighpassionC.takepartinsocialrevolutionD.sellflowers参考答案:c答案解析:C参加社会革命。细节题,见首段第三句,不过用的同义词join.A让你冷静。B燃起高的热情。这两项文中提到,但是另一种场合,不合题意。D卖花。文中未提。第12题:Byfacelessismeant.A.alossoffaceB.notshowingfaceC.notsawingfaceD.shameless参考答案:B答案解析:B不露脸。词语理解题。根据上下文,指网上交易不露面。A丢脸。C不顾脸面。D无耻。这三项很具迷惑性,往往猜错。注意上下文就会避免。第13题:WhichstatementisNOTtrue?A.DuringtheDepressionthefamilybusinessdecreased.B.DuringtheDepressionAmericanswereverypoor.C.William,sfathercamefromItaly.D.Thefamilyfarmin1921wasapoorman'sprofession.参考答案:A
7答案解析:A经济萧条期间花业衰退。细节排除题。与三段三句所说相反。B经济萧条时期美国人很穷。C威廉父亲来自意大利。D1921年家庭农场是穷人的行当。这三项都在文中提到,故可排除。第14题:Whichstatementistrue?A.InoldEuropeflowerswereusedforspecialcases.B.Zapponcebecameafamouspersononradio.C.Everymorningthelocalpeopleaskedhimwhattobuy.D.Therearemorethan30Californiaflorists.参考答案:B答案解析:B再普一度成为无线电台的名人。细节题。见三段倒数二句,不过用词不同,文中用Forawhile,和once同义,celebrity也就是famousperson。A在归的欧洲花只用于特殊场合。C每天早晨当地人民问他该买什么,这两句皆与文相反。D有30多加州花商,不全面。第15题:WhydidheleavetheSanFranciscoflowermarket?A.BecausehewenttoworkinSiliconValley.B.Forarealestatedeveloperboughthisgreenhouses.C.Becauseitisunthinkabletoworkinaflowermarket.D.Fortechnologycompanieslenthisproperty.参考答案:D答案解析:D因为许多技术公司租用了他的地产。推理题。见末段倒数第二句。注意原文是“租给"lease和lend“租用”反义。A因为他去硅谷工作。B因为一个房地产开发商买了他的温室。C因为在花市工作不可思议,这三项皆与文不符。WildBillDonovanwouldhavelovedtheInternet.TheAmericanspymasterwhobuilttheOfficeofStrategicServicesintheWorldWarIIandlaterlaidtherootsfortheCIAwasfascinatedwithinformation.Donovanbelievedinusingwhatevertoolscametohandintheagreatgame”ofespionage—spyingasa“profession”.ThesedaystheNet,whichhasalreadyre-madepastimesasbuyingbooksandsendingmail,isreshapingDonovan,svocationaswell.Thelastrevolutionisn,tsimplyamatterofgentlemenreadingothergentlemen,se-mail.Thatkindofelectronicspyinghasbeengoingonfordecades.Inthepastthreeorfouryears,theworldwidewebhasgivenbirthtoawholeindustryofpoint-and-clickspying.Thespookscallitaopensourceintelligence,andastheNetgrows,itisbecomingincreasinglyinfluential.In1995theCIAheldacontesttoseewhocouldcompilethemostdataaboutBurundi.Thewinner,byalargemargin,wasatinyVirginiacompanycalledOpen-SourceSolutions,whoseclearadvantagewasitsmasteryoftheelectronicworld.AmongthefirmsmakingthebiggestsplashinthenewworldisStraitford,Inc.,aprivateintelligence-analysisfirmbasedinAustin,Texas.

9的邮件那么简单了。像那样的电子特务都问世好几十年了。在过去约三四年中,从环球网(万维网)产生了一个完善的“点击”式间谍产业。间谍们称之为“开放资源情报业”,而随着网络的发展,它变得越来越有影响。1995年间,中央情报局举行了一个看谁能收集到最多关于Burundi情报的这样一个竞赛。一个来自弗吉尼亚的名叫Open-SourceSolutions的小小情报公司以大比分优势最终成为赢家,而这家公司的显著优势便是它对网络世界的精通。Straitford,一个在得克萨斯Austin的情报分析公司,是在这个新兴行业中取得巨大成功的公司之一。Straitford通过将获得的情报(覆盖面从Chile到Russia)卖给像McDermottInternational这样的能源服务公司来赚钱。它的许多预报都可以从www.straitford,com上得到。Straitford总裁GeorgeFriedman讲到他把网络世界视为信息获取和散发的工具,这也正是一个间谍头子的梦。上周,他的公司从世界各地收集来情报,并预告了Ukraine的一次危机。“报告一发出,我们便收到了500名来自Ukraine的网民登录我们的网站。"Fradman,一位前政治学教授讲道,“他们还将会与我们联系。”当然,由于很难辨别真假情报,开放资源间谍业具有它的冒险性。但这正是Straitford维持其生计之处。Friedman在Austin仅依靠几个雇员而已。其中有几位还有军事情报背景。他认为公司的外在形象是它成功的关键。Straitford的理念却不像华府那样扭扭捏捏;在对外公开情报时,他们总会担心出错。"Straitford以它独立的声音而骄傲。"Friedman说道。第17题:Donovan'sstoryismentionedinthetexttoA.introducethetopicofonlinespying.B.showhowhefoughtfortheU.S.C.giveanepisodeoftheinformationwar.D.honorhisuniqueservicestotheCIA.参考答案:A答案解析:问题是:在文中Donovan故事的提起,是用来Donovan这个名字在作者展开文章后,就从此消失。很显然作者提到他的目的是引导读者接触到本文的主要话题,即onlinespyingoC、B项文章没有提到;D项内容不是文章重点。第18题:Thephraseamakingthebiggestsplashn(line1,paragraph3)mostprobablymeansA.causingthebiggesttrouble.B.exertingthegreatesteffort.C.achievingthegreatestsuccess.D.enjoyingthewidestpopularity.参考答案:C答案解析:文章在谈过"netspying"这一行业在美国欣欣向荣后,第三段第一句作者讲到“AmongthefirmsmakingthebiggestsplashinthenewworldisStraitford.”。这句话到底是什么意思?下一句aStraitfordmakesmoneybysellingtheresultsofspying“。可见,amakingthebiggestsplashn和
10“makingmoney”在上下文中指的是同一个意思。这也正是C项内容(achievingthegreatestsuccess)。第19题:Itcanbelearnedfromparagraph4thatA.Straitford,spredictionaboutUkrainehasprovedtrue.B.Straitfordguaranteesthetruthfulnessofitsinfonnation.C・Straitford'sbusinessischaracterizedbyunpredictability.D.Straitfordisabletoprovidefairlyreliableinformation.参考答案:D答案解析:文章第四段最后两句中提到“open-sourcespying”也有它的风险,因为判断信息的真假往往十分困难。这也正是Straitford在这种情况下还能赚到钱的原因所在。换句话说,Straitford可以提供来源可靠的信息,即D项内容。“earnone'skeep"意思是赚钱。第20题:StraitfordismostproudofitsA.officialstatus.B.nonconformistimage.C.efficientstaff.D.militarybackground.参考答案:B答案解析:文章最后一段讲到Straitford以他独立的声音而自豪。而这“independentvoicew是与前句中“usualWashingtonbackandforth”形成对比,来显示Straitford的“unusual"。这与B项内容相符©Nonconformist的意思是“不遵守常规者”。Thereweretwowidelydivergentinfluencesontheearlydevelopmentofstatisticalmethods.Statisticshadamotherwhowasdedicatedtokeepingorderlyrecordsofgovernmentalunits(stateandstatisticscomefromthesameLatinroot,status)andagentlemanlygamblingfatherwhoreliedonmathematicstoincreasehisskillatplayingtheoddsingamesofchance.Theinfluenceofthemotherontheoffspring,statistics,isrepresentedbycounting,measuring,describing,tabulating,ordering,andthetakingofcensusesallofwhichledtomoderndescriptivestatistics.Fromtheinfluenceofthefathercamemoderninferentialstatistics,whichisbasedsquarelyontheoriesofprobability.Descriptivestatisticsinvolvestabulating,depicting,anddescribingcollectionsofdata.Thesedatamaybeeitherquantitative,suchasmeasuresofheight,intelligence,orgradelevel—variablesthatarecharacterizedbyanunderlyingcontinuumorthedatamayrepresentqualitativevariables,suchassex,collegemajor,orpersonalitytype.Largemassesofdatamustgenerallyundergoaprocessofsummarizationorreductionbeforetheyarecomprehensible.Descriptivestatisticsisatoolfordescribing

15B肯定在公元前700年之前,为推理细节题。文中无700年,但有公元前776年的数字,公元前700年在776年之后,所以肯定是B。其他各项时间皆不对。A、D时间太晚。C时间又过早。第27题:InthefinalstagesoftheancientOlympicGames,anycompetitorhadtobe.A.GreekB.unmarriedC.maleD.neitheraslavenoraforeigner参考答案:C答案解析:C男性,为细节题。从2段可看出此答案。C未结婚者,有迷惑性。文中指不准结婚的妇女观看。D既非奴隶又非外国人。1段中讲后期允许外国人参加。第28题:TheorderofathleticeventsattheancientOlympics.A.hasnotdefinitelybeenestablishedB.variedaccordingtothefullmoonC.wasdecidedbyZeus,inwhosehonourtheGameswereheldD.wasconsideredunimportant参考答案:A答案解析:A没有明确规定。为词义及细节题。从2段4句可看出,但文中用的是sequence与题中order同义,都是顺序的意思。B根据满月时间而改变,文中未提。C由运动会所尊敬的宙斯决定,是荒谬之谈,宙斯是希腊主神。D也是文中未提及的。第29题:AtthebeginningoftheGamesinthehostcountry.A.atorchisignitedatsunriseB.alightedtorchisbroughtintothestadiumC.relaysofrunnerslighttheirtorchesinthestadiumD.atorchisignitedbytheGreekambassador参考答案:B答案解析:B一个点燃的火炬被带入会场。为细节题。由6段1句可看出此答案。A火炬是在日出时点燃,为迷惑项。文是说是由日光点燃。C接力赛队员在运动场点燃他们的火炬。D火炬由希腊大使点燃,皆与文不符。第30题:ThemodernOlympicscomparedwiththeancientonesare.
16A.inspiredbythesameidealsB.completelydifferentineveryrespectC.morerestrictedinthevarietyofeventsD.toomuchconcernedwithinternationalrivalry参考答案:A答案解析:A受同一理想的鼓舞。由6段3句可推出此答案,为推理细节题。文中说“象征着古代希腊比赛理想的继续”说明同一性质。B各方面完全不同。C在许多方面有更多限制。D过分关注国际对抗。此三项皆未提及。多项选择Musiccomesinmanyforms;mostcountrieshaveastyleoftheirown.[1]theturnofthecenturywhenjazz(爵士乐)wasborn,Americahadnoprominent[2]ofitsown.Nooneknowsexactlywhenjazzwas[3],orbywhom.Butitbegantobe[4]intheearly1900s.JazzisAmerica,scontributionto[5]music.Incontrasttoclassicalmusic,which[6]formalEuropeantraditions.Jazzisspontaneousandfree-form.Itbubbleswithenergy,[7]moods,interests,andemotionsofthepeople.Inthe1920sjazz[8]likeAmerica.And[9]itdoestoday.The[10]ofthismusicareasinterestingasthemusic[11],AmericanNegroes,orblacks,astheyarecalledtodayweretheJazz[12].TheywerebroughttotheSouthernstates[13]slaves.Theyweresoldtoplantationownersandforcedtoworklong[14].WhenaNegrodiedhisfriendsandrelatives[15]aprocessiontocarrythebodytothecemetery.InNewOrleans,abandoftenaccompaniedthe[16]Onthewaytothecemeterythebandplayedslow,solemnmusicsuitedtotheoccasion.[17]onthewayhomethemoodchanged.Spiritslifted.Deathhadremovedoneoftheir[18],butthelivingweregladtobealive.Thebandplayed[19]music,improvising(即兴表演)onboththeharmonyandthemelodyofthetunes[20]atthefuneral.Thismusicmadeeveryonewantodance.ItwasanearlyformofJazz.第31题:A.ByB.AtC.InD.On参考答案:B答案解析:第32题:

22Vocabularyeccentric[n.]怪人quantitative[adj.]数量的,定量的symposia[n.]座谈会formalize[v.]正式化,形式化□第51题:Theofficialcasefor^academicmobilitynisnowoftenstatedinimpressivetermsasafundamentalnecessityforeconomicandsocialprogressintheworld,anddebatedinthecorridorofEurope,butitiscertaintynothingnew?参考答案:现在“学术流动性”的官方说法常常充满了高调,说它是世界经济和社会进步的基本需要,在欧洲走廊人们也会就这一主题进行辩论,但这的确不是一个新名词。详细解答:K解析U本句的主体结构是由“but”连接的并列句,注意在第一个并列分句中,debated与stated是对等的。【文章导谈】不断加强的全球经济和政治的一体化进程,从而带动文化和学术交流日益频繁。在国际环境中从事学习、教学、科研、生活和交流的学生、教师和科研人员的数目不断增加,证实了这一总体发展趋势。国际学术流动,有助于实现全球学术资源的共享,开阔学者们的眼界,拓宽他们的研究思路。第52题:Itmustalsohavebeencomfortingtoknowthatotherpeopleinotherpartsoftheworldwereabouttomakethesamediscoveryorwerethinkingalongthesamelines,andthatonewasnotquitealone,confronted:byridiculeorneglect?参考答案:如果了解到世界上其他地区的其他人将会有相同的发现,也正在按同一思路思考,尽管我们受到嘲弄和忽视,但我们并不孤独,因为有他们与我们作伴,这样我们肯定会感到宽慰。详细解答:K解析Hit是形式主语,真正的主语是不定式短语,但这个不定式比较复杂,其中包括动词know的两个宾语从句。注意"confrontedbyridiculeorneglect”这―•过去分词短语修饰one,与这一分句的谓语部分构成逻辑上的让步关系,这一点在译成汉语时表现得比较明显。如果没有理清各个词组、分句前后的逻辑关系,在翻译时就会处处受制。第53题:Thevehiclewhichhasmadethispossiblehasofcoursebeentheairplane,makingcontactbetweenscholarseveninthemostdistantplacesimmediatelypossible,andprovidingfortheveryrapidtransmissionofknowledge?参考答案:
23使这成为可能的工具当然非飞机莫属。飞机能使即使相距最遥远的学者之间的交流马上成为可能,并且为知识的迅速传播提供了条件。详细解答:K解析Uwhich引导定语从句修饰vehicle,making和providing两个分词引起的现在分词短语作定讲修饰aSplane。第54题:Associatedwiththisisthegrowthofspecialistperiodicals,whichenablescholarstobecomeawareofwhatishappeningindifferentcentersofresearchandtomeeteachotherinconferencesandsymposia?参考答案:与此相关的是专业期刊的发展。这些专业性期刊使学者们得以了解各个研究中心的研究进展,并使他们能够在学术会议和座谈会上见面交流。详细解答:K解析》注意本句的主句中主语和表语位置的互换,这样做一是为了更流畅地承接上文,更主要的是因为主语部分中的periodicals这个词后面有一个很长的定语从句,如果全部放在句首,则整个句子失去平衡。作文A.Studythecirclegraphgivenbelow(图4—6)andwriteanessayinabout200words.B.Youressayshouldcoveralltheinformationprovidedandmeettherequirementsbelow:1.Explainthemajorroadaccidents.2.Pointoutthepossiblemeasurestocorrectthesituation.第55题:MajorCausesofRoadAccidentsWiththerapiddevelopmentofoureconomy,manyhighwayshavebeenconstructedlikecobwebsalloverChina.Whilewearehappytoseethatcarsarerevolutionizingourlives,wearegettingmoreandmoreworriedaboutthefactthatthenumberofroadaccidentsisspiralingupwardeveryyear.RecentstudiesshowedthatthreemajorcausesareresponsiblefortheroadaccidentsinChina,asshowninthepiechart.Firstly,12.5%oftheaccidentsreportedarecausedbypedestrians.Sometimes,peoplearecarelesswhentheywalkalongoracrossstreets,whichmakesaccidentsmorelikely.Secondly,33%oftheaccidentsresultfrombicycles.ItiswellknownthatmillionsofChineseridebicycles,especiallyinbigcities.Ifbicycleridersignoretrafficregulations,
