    [A] rather regretful

    [B] less ambitious

    [C] more cautious

    [D] speculative


    正确答案:C

    本题考查推理引申。文章最后一段第二句提到,一直以来作为美国国债最大的外国买家的亚洲中央银行最近改变了过去的做法。接着该段以具体数据说明外国买家购买美国国债的数量下降。从文中“swallowing American government debt like there was no tomorrow”可看出作者认为大举购买国债的做法是“不谨慎”的,而下文“have had second thoughts”他表明它变得更加慎重,因此[C]为正确答案。

    ◆Topic 7: Living Alone  Questions for Reference:  1. More and more people are living by themselves today. Explain the reason.  2. What’s the advantages and disadvantages of living alone?  3. Which is the best way to have a happy life according to your understanding?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    You come home alone after a long day at work. You open the door to your home. No one is there. Is it blessed silence you hear -or echoing emptiness?
    Millions of people who live alone today may have either experience. Some love living alone, yet others wish they didn’t have to.
    When they open that door at night, people who live alone do not have to put up with demands or listen to someone’ s noise or meet anyone’ s dinner deadlines. They do not have to debate about which TV program to watch or stay off the phone because someone else is expecting an important call. No one else messes up their kitchen.
    But when they are sick, no one else will bring them an aspirin or call the doctor. Preparing dinner for one can be difficult, and eating dinner for one night after night can be very lonely. Perhaps no one really cares what they did all day. If they are feeling sad, there may be no one to cheer them up. Some people who live alone say the worst times come when something very good happens because there is no one to share the joy.
    During the course of a lifetime, one may sometimes live with others and sometimes live alone.
    Each way of life has its advantages. Learning to take advantage of them is one key to contentment.

    单选题
    According to the fifth paragraph, we can infer that______.
    A

    the total number of cops in Cerritos is no less than 53.

    B

    gang members of nearby cities enjoy immunity in Cerritos.

    C

    the crime rates in Cerritos are relatively low.

    D

    Los Angeles country sheriff is responsible for the expense of policing Cerritos.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    推断题由题干定位到文章第五段。该段第四句提到,这一年共记录了53起严重袭击案,平均每个警察不到一起,由此可推测,Cerrito的警察数量超过了53个,故可排除A项。由尾句可知,附近的犯罪团伙偶尔在这里打球是因为这里治安良好,不会遭到对手的袭击,故可排除B项。由该地警察被视为最轻松的工作和严重袭击案件的数量之少可知,Cerrito的犯罪率极低,而不是相对较低,故排除C项。该段第二句提到,尽管与洛杉矶的县法院之间有一个维持治安的合同,但Cerrito还是承担了修建工作和配备警员的费用,由此可以推测,根据所签合同,洛杉矶县法院应该承担Cerrito维持治安的开销,故答案为D项。

    According to the passage, what happens to those who exercise regularly?They can eat more, and still lose a large amount of ____.

    正确答案: body fat
    解析:
    细节辨认题。录音最后提到“Therefore, those who exercise regularly can eat more and still lose a large amount of body fat”,即经常锻炼的人吃的多,但是失去的脂肪也多,答案为body fat。
    【录音原文】
      In the U.S.A, 30% of the adult population has the weight problem. To many people, the cause is obvious—they eat too much. But scientific evidence doesn’t support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days, people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn’t watch television.
      Several modern studies have shown that fatter people don’t eat more than thinner people. In fact, some investigations report that fat people eat less than thinner people. Recently, a study of a research group found the following interesting fact: thinner people are more active than fatter people; therefore, those who exercise regularly can eat more and still lose a large amount of body fat.
    Q11: About how many adult American have the weight problem?
    Q12: In many people’s opinion, what is the cause of getting fat?
    Q13: Why were the Americans in 1910 thinner than today?
    Q14: What was the result of a recent study?
    Q15: According to the passage, what happens to those who exercise regularly?

  • 第17题:

    问答题
    Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People are never satisfied with what they have; they always want something more or something different. Write a composition of about 400 words to state your view on the issue.

    正确答案:
    Satisfaction is only a temporary feeling of being content, for human desire, stimulated by both physical and mental needs, connects with changes in our world, our society and ourselves. It is true that people are never satisfied with what they have in the long run and they always want something more or something different. This unsatisfactory perception, together with the desire for something more or different, exists perpetually for three major reasons.
    First of all, the continuous emergence of new products constantly motivates people's desire to get things new and different for better. For example, people replace their computers with new ones that are quicker in speed and more in functions long before their machines get worn-out. This happens as a result of the rapid development of science and technology that enables improved computers and softwares to come out into the market at a much faster speed than the speed for a computer to get old. Nobody will not be satisfied with iphone4 when iphone5 appears. People are always longing for something new and better.
    Secondly, people's improvement in financial status invites their dissatisfaction with what they have. A good example of this is the purchase of a newer house on a better location with a nicer view when one has saved enough or when one gets a raise knowing that paying back a mortgage is not a problem. From this perspective, people's dissatisfaction goes along with the development of economy.
    Finally, the vanity to keep up with the neighbors and friends also spark off people's dissatisfaction with what they have. A car is originally meant to be a means of transportation. However, there are people who trade in their nice cars for a Benz, BMW, Volvo or a Luxury simply because their friends or neighbors drive these makes. When food is no longer a problem, people began to pursue a life of high quality.
    Superficially, people's endless discontents with what they have sounds greedy and unpleasant. But it is, in fact, this discontent of our humans' that pushes our society to continuously create things new and different to meet people's desire.
    解析:
    题目里提到人从不满足,作者在第一段里肯定了这一说法,并在接下来的三段分别进行论证。其中使用了First、Second、Finally等衔接词使文章脉络清晰,此外还用的了逻辑推理和举例法使论据更加丰富。最后一段总结全文。

    According to the passage, what would happen to healthy cells within 48 hours of exposure to radio waves?
    A

    The number of healthy cells will keep declining as more and more of them die.

    B

    The number of healthy cells will initially drop before recovering rapidly.

    C

    The number of healthy cells will be on steady increase throughout the process.

    D

    The scientists have not yet arrived at any conclusion on this issue.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    事实细节的找寻和判断。根据上题解析可知,暴露在无线电波之下24小时,被杀死的白血病细胞比正常细胞数量多出20%。但录音中同时指出“longer exposure to the radio waves triggered genes in the surviving cancer cells to divide aggressively”,可知若接受超过24小时(48小时)的连续辐射后,残余癌细胞中的基因会大量繁殖。但对于健康细胞的影响,有关科学家表示“We don’t know what the effects would be on healthy human cells”,由此可知,选项D与录音原文相符。

    D

    文章第三段的主题句是其第一句话,所以本段的主旨是“现如今能够很快地晋升到高层”。而且,第二个句子用具体数字表明人们从第一份工作到最后担任要职所用的平均时间缩短了。选项B的内容与之完全相符,因此答案选B。

    What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that _____.
    A

    there is more and more waste to be recycled

    B

    it is difficult for TerraCycle to recycle everything

    C

    TerraCycle is trying to meet the challenge of new waste

    D

    TerraCycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste
