    A

    simile

    B

    metaphor

    C

    metonymy

    D

    personification


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    词义题。metonymy（换喻或转喻）是一种一个词或词组被另一个与之有紧密联系的词或词组替换的修辞手法，本体与喻词均不出现，直接用喻体来代替本体。simile明喻，直喻。metaphor隐喻，暗喻。personification拟人（法）；人格化。因此“political and financial muscle”应是换喻，实际上指的是“政治和经济力量”。故选C。

    细节题。第三段首句指出Wal-Mart和其他企业试图说服南方那些地区解除禁酒令，却遭到some church groups and religious leaders的强烈反对。该段接下来就提到“他们争辩道解除禁酒就意味着更多的家庭暴力…”，由此可看出此处的they指的就是前面一句中提到的some church groups and religious leaders。因此选D。

    正确答案： A
    解析：

    正确答案： B
    解析：
    “dissemination”所在句指出“铁路和蒸汽船的出现促进了消息和信息的长距离dissemination”，由此可推断出dissemination指的是“（信息、消息的）传播”，因此与distribution表达意思相近。plantation栽培；殖民；大农场。reception接待；接收。

    people in their thirties and forties

    D

    解析：

    答案：A
    解析：
    词义题。根据画线词定位到第二段。该段描述了婴儿在子宫中听到的声音是来自于周围的语言。另外文章倒数第二段中也提到了“Newborns ‘not only have memorized…of their respective surroundinglanguage…”。所以“ambient”与“surrounding”的意思接近，本题选A。familiar“熟悉的”，foreign“ 外国的”，local“当地的”。

    superficially

    C

    imaginatively

    D

    actually


    正确答案： D
    解析：

    B

    fish

    C

    D

    flesh


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    指代题。第一段首句指出microscopic organisms会以一种不知名的毒素麻痹鱼类，然后把鱼吃掉。该句意为“他们也许会使人类得病”。可知microscopic organisms对鱼类和人都会造成危害，因此此处的they指的即是前面的microscopic organisms。

    bother


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    语义题。threat意为“威胁”，其在文中所在句指“这种疾病对30个国家的人们构成严重威胁”。risk有“威胁，隐患”的意思，与threat表达意思相符。debate争论；辩论。humiliation羞辱，蒙耻。bother麻烦，烦扰。

    childhood


    正确答案： A
