    单选题
    According to Karen Norberg, ______.
    A

    among children born out of wedlock there were more girls than boys.

    B

    the chance of a woman giving birth to a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived.

    C

    for parents who were not cohabiting, boys were born 51.5% of the time.

    D

    women who have not been living with a man are more likely to have daughters.


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    录音中Karen Norberg在研究中发现“the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived”，可见在他看来一个女人在怀孩子之前与一个男人一起生活那么她生男孩的几率就相对较大，因此选项D的推断正确。
    【录音原文】
    Can household arrangements affect the human sex ratio? According to Karen Norberg, of the National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, they can. In a review of data from almost 60, 000 American families, Dr Norberg found that the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived. To be specific, for parents who were living together, boys were born 51.5% of the time, while when the parents were not cohabiting only 49.9% of births were male. This difference may seem small, but statistically it is highly significant, which suggests it is the result of evolution.

  • 第7题：

    单选题
    The most significant finding of the original research was __________.
    A

    lighting had no consistent effect on production

    B

    production sometimes increased when lighting was reduced to the level of ordinary moonlight

    C

    that lighting was no more important than the other factors of temperature and humidity

    D

    the results were unexpected and confusing


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    本题是细节题。参考第82题的解析可知，研究开始时认为照明是最重要的，可是“The researchers found that lighting had no consistent effect on production”，即是研究人员却发现照明没有对生产产生一致的作用，因此答案为A。

    B

    to have been deserted

    C

    to be deserted

    D

    having been deserted


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    此句中having been deserted用于描述explorers的状态，是已经被遗弃在雨林里。选项A中缺少被动态，可以排除。to do表示打算、计划做，to have done则是表示本来打算做但实际上没做，是虚拟语气的用法。因此选项B和C都可以排除。余下的选项D为正确答案。

    正确答案： C
    解析：

  • 第12题：

    A

    The rescue operation involved many people.

    B

    The cause of the explosions has been determined.

    C

    Rescue efforts were stopped on Thursday.

    D

    The explosions didn’t destroy the building.


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    细节题。根据“We are now investigating all possible reasons for the explosions ...”可知爆炸原因还未确定，下文中提到的oxygen canisters只是一种可能；文中也没有提及救援工作停止；而由“... a series of explosions reduced it to rubble.”可见大楼已化为瓦砾，故可排除选项B、C、D，新闻一开始提到几百位营救者在营救，因此A项是正确的。
    【录音原文】
    　　Hundreds of emergency workers combed the site of a five-story apartment building in southern Ukraine Thursday after a series of explosions reduced it to rubble, authorities said. The blasts Wednesday night in the Black Sea resort town of Yevpatoria left at least 17 people dead and 24 others missing, according to Igor Krol, a spokesman for the Ukraine’s Emergency Situations Ministry. 21 people have been rescued. “We are now investigating all possible reasons for the explosions,” Krol said. Volodymiyr Shandra, the Ukrainian Emergency Situations minister, told local media that oxygen canisters being stored in the basement of the building could have triggered the blasts. Television footage showed the rescuers trying to free people buried underneath fallen debris, while others scrabbled through wires, construction rods and boulders.

    10. How many people were rescued from the apartment building?

  • 第15题：

    Question 53-54 refer to the following information.
    An earthquake of magnitude 6.1 struck southwestern China on Sunday, resulting in the death of nearly 600 people in a remote area of Yunnan province as well as collapse of thousands of building, including a school. The earthquake also triggered more landslides that have blocked rivers and created rapidly growing bodies of water that could unleash more destruction on survivors of the disaster. More than 10000 soldiers and hundreds of volunteers have rushed to Ludian Country to clear roads and dig out possible survivors from the debris, but landslides and bouts of heavy rain have
    complicated rescue efforts. An estimated 80000 houses were destroyed and 12400 seriously damaged.

    Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

    A. Landslides have brought about more destruction on the survivors.
    B. It is soldiers who have undertaken a huge proportion of relief work.
    C. The rescuing work has been going on quite smoothly with no interference.
    D. The rain and the Landslides have added to the difficulty of rescue efforts.

    答案：D
    解析：
    细节题。据第二句话显示，对幸存者造成更大毁灭力量的不是滑坡，而是迅速上涨的洪水，因此A 项错；B 项说是士兵承担了大部分的救援物资工作，这与原文的信息有所出入，士兵是进行救援任务，而不是分发救援物资；C 选项说救援工作不受任何干扰地顺利进行着，这显然与原文不符，原文提到滑坡和雨水都会使救援工作变得更加复杂。根据段落倒数第二句话，可以看出是雨水和滑坡增加了救援的难度，与D 项相符。

    C

    D

    正确答案： A
    解析：
    句意：你现在可以脱掉雨衣。雨似乎已经停了。按本题首句规定的语境，[B]是符合常理的选择，因为不定式的完成时态用于表达已经发生的事。[C]则只适用于某种特定情景(如以人工手段制止降雨，但这并不现实)。

    正确答案： helpful

  • 第20题：

    B

    C

    D

    didn’t she


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    虚拟语气及反义疑问句题。一般来说，反义疑问句要与主句的主语和谓语相对应，主句的谓语部分为would have been…，主语为Laura，在反义疑问句中用she指代，所以本题应选C。

    D

    正确答案： A
    解析：
    细节题。录音最后提到教育部门为吉普赛小孩成立特殊学校让他们接受教育，故选A。
    【录音原文】
    　　Around the year 1000A.D., some people from Northwest India began to travel westwards. Nobody knows why. After leaving their homes, they did not settle down again but spent their lives moving from one place to another. Their later generations are called the Romany people or Gypsies. There are Gypsies all over the world. And many of them are still traveling with no fixed homes. There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in Eastern Europe. Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews. And nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler’s death camps. Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing, and they often work in fairs and traveling shows. Travelling is very important to them and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsies children to go to school. And Gypsies are often unable to read and write. In some places, the education authorities try to arrange special travelling schools for Gypsy children so that they can get the same education as other children.
    Questions 1 to 3 are based on the passage you have just heard.
    1. Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?
    2. What is the attitude of some people towards Gypsies?
    3. What measure has been taken to help Gypsy children?
