    _________(57)
    A:prefer
    B:refuse
    C:choose
    D:like

    答案：A
    解析：
    词义辫析题，devotion的意思是“热爱”。例如：His devotion to work is highly appreciated．人们很欣赏他对工作的热爱。trust“信任”、faith“信仰”、belief“信仰”均不合适。
    根据语法和词义判断选项B正确，since意为“自从”，本句为“自人生的早期起他们就被训练……”。
    根据上下文含义和句子逻辑可以看出美国人自小就被培养成对自己的人生境遇和命运负责的独立的人。separate在这里意为“独立”，所以此题选D。
    逻辑题。在前面说到美国人接受的教育是让他们成为独立的个体，所以他们就不应把自己看作是某些组织体成员。interdependent意为“互相依赖的”，因为是用来描述家人之间的关系，所以比起dependent“依赖的”更合适。
    family , religious groups , nation都是collectivity，即“集体”的一种形式，所以选择C。
    opportunity意思是“机会”，用在“每个小孩子都被给予_____来作决定”这个句子中很合适。
    原句的意思是“美国人给孩子自己选择的机会，甚至在选择哪种糖果棒上都要问孩子更喜欢哪个”，因此prefer“更喜欢”比choose“选择”和like“喜欢”更合适。
    这里需要一个表示在两者间选择的词，所以whether表示“其中的一个” 合适。本句的意思是“他是想坐在妈妈身边还是爸爸身边”。
    前面提到的是让孩子选择更喜欢什么或更想要怎么做，这些都可以用 preference来归纳。其意思是“偏爱”，放在此句中最符合逻辑。
    根据语法，through符合要求。through作为介词意思是“通过”，这里的意思是“通过这种惯常的做法……”。其他三项在此处都不能和practice搭配。
    此段开始讲美国有许多书都指出家长们的目标是培养出一名负责任的、独立的个体，很明显是对前面几段的承接，只有表示肯定的indeed(确实）合适。
    这里考查的是词汇的使用。此处是“关于如何抚养孩子的书”,raise意为 “养育”用在，这里是正确的。feed意为“喂养”,grow意为“成长”，而bring若要表示“养育”的意思，通常需要和up搭配。例如：It must have been very difficult to manage to bring up four children.
    make有“使成为……”的意思，符合句意。本句意思是“家长们的目标是使他们的孩子成为一名负责任的、独立的个体”。
    前面提到在美国家长均志在培养出“a responsible, independent individual"，所以根据逻辑孩子到了18岁就应该做好搬出父母家的准备。move out:搬出，符合句意。 withdraw：撤退，abandon:抛弃，give up：放弃，均不符合句意和使用习惯。
    固定搭配题。这里要表达的意思是“靠自己谋生”。 make a living为固定搭配，而其他各项均无此意，因此选C。

  • 第8题：

    问答题
    Scientific and technological advances have improved our daily lives. However, in many fields scientists cannot solve the problems they have created themselves. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give your reasons. Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic.

    正确答案：
    Scientific and technological advances have, admittedly, improved people's daily lives and dramatically changed the way people live. People nowadays actually owe a great debt to the inventors who have pushed forward the development of science and technology. However, I am a strong believer in the claim that scientists in many fields cannot solve the problems they have created themselves, for the following reasons :
    The creation of a new scientific and technological product is a purely academic matter, but its application may be affected by political, historical and military factors. For example, the original purpose of cloning was simply scientific—to change undesirable genes at the embryo stage, and to alleviate pain and illness of the patients. However, some people with ulterior motives may take advantage of this technique to clone human genes. This is sure to cause serious moral uncertainty and chaos for the human race. The inventors of cloning might have never imagined that the technology is now used for dishonorable purposes, and they can only rely on the government to prohibit human cloning by enforcing strict laws.
    Sometimes it is impossible for researchers and scientists to predict the future application of the product they are working on. Atomic energy is a case in point. Its study and research are conducted with the aim of saving the world's limited energy resources and optimizing the use of current energy sources, such as water. Yet people are saddened by the news that atomic technology is used to manufacture dangerous weapons for the purpose of threatening or even destroying other countries and innocent people. For example, to retaliate Japan's attack on its Pearl Harbour, the United States dropped two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing huge mortality and destruction, which were absolutely never dreamed by the scientists who invented the weapon. And once it was put into military use, the inventors could do nothing to change the fearful result.
    In conclusion, scientists in many fields find themselves helpless when it comes to controlling the application of the technology they have labored so hard to produce and to solve the problems they have created.
    解析：
    针对“科学家无法解决一些科技进步带来的问题”这一观点，范文作者在第一段末表示赞同。第二、三段具体解释了赞同的原因。首先，科技的应用受到政治、历史和军事因素的影响。其次，科学家不能完全预测产品的未来用途。其中恰当地运用了实例支持分论点。结尾段简洁地总结了中心思想。
