  • 第8题:

    单选题
    It can be inferred from the passage that the manufacturers mentioned in paragraph 1 expected that the measures they implemented would _____.
    A

    encourage innovation

    B

    keep labor output constant

    C

    increase their competitive advantage

    D

    permit business upturns to be more easily predicted


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    由“manufacturers in the United States have been trying to improve productivity—and therefore enhance their international competitiveness—through cost-cutting programs”可知,C为正确选项。第三段提到,cost cutting并不能encourage innovation,所以A错误。B项是对cost cutting的解释。

  • 第9题:

    It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that ______.
    A

    data leakage is more severe in Europe

    B

    FTC’s decision is essential to data security

    C

    California takes the lead in security legislation

    D

    legal penalty is a major Solomon to data leakage


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    推断题。从最后一段的第一句(The current state of affairs may have been encouraged though not justified by the lack of legal penalty for data leakage.)和末句(… America on notice that regulators will act if firms fail to provide adequate data security)可以看出法律惩罚是避免数据泄漏的一个很有效的方法。

  • 第10题:

    单选题
    It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that Christopher Lash is most probably ______.
    A

    a reform advocate

    B

    a senior psychologist

    C

    a reputed poet

    D

    a social historian


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    推断题。答案来自第二段。从文中Most societies derive consensus from a long history可知本段是在说人们在从历史中获得共同点,与历史有关。而后文中的it has been emphasized that an asocial, narcissistic personality has become characteristic of Americans表现的是美国一种缺乏社交、自恋过于独立的社会现状。由这两点整合来看,D选项最为贴切。

  • 第11题:

    单选题
    It can be inferred from the passage that ginkgo ______.
    A

    can improve memory

    B

    works after the first pill

    C

    can produce several side effects

    D

    causes mild stomach discomfort


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    本题答案的原文在第四段第四、五行。题干是“从原文中我们可以推断出ginkgo……”。选项A“能改善记忆力”,D“引起轻度胃部不适”均在原文中提到,不属于推断出的意思。B项“吃过第一片之后就发现管用了”在原文中推断不出来。由“The package warned that in addition to any other problems,ginkgo can cause“mild stomach discomfort””可以推断出C选项的意思。故选C。

  • 第12题:

    单选题
    It can be inferred from the first paragraph that mankind _____.
    A

    has just begun to exploit the natural resources of the earth

    B

    believes that natural resources can be used in stages

    C

    has discovered that there are unlimited sources of raw materials

    D

    believes that the entire earth can be used as raw materials


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    文中第一段在提出一些人的“仓库式”观点后指出“Instead, the fact seems to be that the first storehouse in which man found himself was only one in a series”,与此相反,事实上似乎那第一个仓库只是一系列仓库中的一个。可见,人们对现有的自然资源的开发和利用还只是初步的阶段,总会有新的探索和发现,故答案为A。B选项不严密,似乎是说人们主观能动地把自然资源分阶段使用,而事实并非如此。C选项在文中有明确提及,不属“推断”的范畴。

  • 第13题:

    It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____.

    [A] the dream to build interplanetary Internet can be fulfilled in the future

    [B] interplanetary Internet will be commercialized in 100 years

    [C] the research of Internet took 50 years

    [D] it will take a long time to build interplanetary Internet


    正确答案:A

    本题考查考生的推理引申能力。文章最后一段所做的假设(在今后50年内仅仅是研究项目的东西,在100年后完全有可能商业化)以及与因特网发展历程的比较,都是塞尔夫为了说明建立星际因特网在未来是有可能实现的,所以[A]项正确。文中提到100年只是一种假设,[B]项将其确定为商业化实现的时间,不正确。同样,[C]项将假设中的50年确定为因特网的研究年限,也不正确。该段中塞尔夫的一番话表达了他对星际因特网的建立怀有比较乐观的态度,而不是说明它需要花很长时间才能实现,[D]项不正确。

  • 第18题:


    It can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage that the chairperson who resigned from the panel to develop a coordinated federal program for radiation regulation most likely did so because( )

    A.he or she disagreed with the findings of the Senate committee
    B.regulatory efforts have been balked by disputes,confusion,and bureaucratic delays
    C.he or she supported the position of the National Academy of Sciences Committee and opposed regulation of radiation exposure
    D.he or she was disorganized and inconsistent in chairing the panel

    答案:B
    解析:
    推断题。由最后一段可知:对辐射的定期监管杂乱无章、支离破碎,且没有连续性,而且这些监管的特点有互相推诿和官僚主义导致的延误等。故本题选B。参考译文:辐射有三种自然来源:环境中的放射性物质,如土壤、岩石或建筑材料,宇宙射线,以及人体内的物质,如骨骼中的放射性钾以及组织中的放射性碳。这些来源使美国人每年暴露在大约100毫雷姆的辐射下。人造辐射的最大单一来源是医用X射线,虽然大多数科学家认为,医用X射线造成的危害远没有武器试验产生的放射尘的危害大,因为锶90和碳14会融合到体内,而这种辐射会伴随人的一生。然而,这种看法绝不是没有争议的。近20年来人们进行了大量的测试,关于低水平辐射影响的争议也从未间断,这开始于1958年联合国科学委员会原子辐射影响研究小组发布的一项报道,该小组在报道中称“即使是最小量的辐射也可能造成有害基因或躯体效应”。英国的一项调查证实,曾用X射线治疗脊椎关节炎的病人感染癌症的概率异常得高。另一项研究显示,如果母亲接受了产前骨盆X射线辐射,孩子患癌症的概率会非常高。这些研究表明,人类有必要重新审视这一假设:即接触低线性能量转移后,罹患癌症的风险也很小。近日,为生产专用于核武器的钚的西海岸工厂的已故员工们做的一次死亡证明表明,这些人死于胰腺癌、骨髓癌和淋巴系统癌的概率远高于正常人群。虽然美国国家科学学术委员会将这种差异归因于化学因素或其他环境因素而不是辐射,但是其他科学家依然认为,任何辐射接触,无论多小,都会增加患癌症的风险。一些科学家认为,一雷姆的剂量如果持续多代的话,婴儿出生时患有严重基因缺陷的风险会增加1个百分点,也有可能导致每百万个新生儿中就有1 000个基因紊乱。同时,定期监管杂乱无章、支离破碎,且没有连续性,而且这些监管具有互相推诿和官僚主义导致的延误等特点。一份参议院的报告总结称,管辖权的争议和混乱使得相关部门和机构共同监管、协调参与变得不太可能。一家联邦机构在努力获得足够的资金和人力以加强执行现有辐射法律方面一直未成功,而专门为发展协调一致的联邦项目而建立的专家组主席也辞职了。

  • 第19题:

    单选题
    What can be inferred from the example of the ant-lion in the first paragraph?
    A

    Instincts of animals can lead to unreasonable reactions in strange situations.

    B

    When it is engaged in a chain actions it cannot be interrupted.

    C

    Environment and heredity are two supplementary factors in the evolution of insects.

    D

    Along the lines of evolution heredity becomes less and environment more important.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    本题可参照第一段中间一句话“if such a lonely animal is engaged upon a chain of actions and is interrupted, it either goes on vainly with the remaining actions ... or dies in helpless inactivity”,从中可知,蚁狮会执著地做出本能的反应。因此B项为正确答案。

  • 第21题:

    单选题

    curtail some cultural activities

    C

    open more theaters

    D

    work out some rules for donation


    正确答案: A
    解析:
