A.visit
B.miss
C.seek
D.know

答案：D
解析：
上下文语义衔接+动词辨析本题空格处考查了动词，解题的关键是确定主语most people（很多人）与宾语their fourth cousins（他们隔三代的表亲）两者之间的关系。空所在的语境为：大多数人甚至不____他们隔三代的表亲，但却设法选择那些____我们亲戚的人作为朋友。根据上下文语义以及文章主旨的导向，不难判断D选项最符合文意，“很多人甚至不认识自己隔三代的表亲”，故答案选择D。

第7题：

Directions: Some people think that all university students should study whatever they like. Others believe that they should only be allowed to study subjects that will be useful in the future, such as those related to science and technology. What′s your view about what subject university students should study? You are required to write a composition within 180 words, but no less than 150 words.

答案：
解析：
People have different views about what subject university students should study, whether the one they like or only the one that will be useful in the future. People who believe students should only study subjects that will be useful in the future list several reasons. First, university courses like medicine, engineering and information technology can provide more job opportunities, career progression, better salaries, and therefore an improved quality of life for students who take them. Second, those subjects play the major role in new inventions, economic growth, and the society' s greater future prosperity. As far as I am concerned, university students should be free to choose their preferred subjects. In my opinion, students can study well if the learning content caters to their interest. Besides, the creative thinking patterns behind some theoretical subjects have potential value. In this sense, more students of art, history and philosophy are needed. In conclusion, although it might seem sensible for students to focus only on the most useful subjects, I personally assert that they have the right to study whatever they like.

正确答案： E

Astronomers at the University of California discovered one of the most distant _____.
A
paradoxes
B
paradises
C
galaxies
D
shuttles

正确答案： C
解析：
句意：加州大学的宇航员发现了最远的星系之一。由从句中的astronomers一词，可以联想到galaxy（星系）和shuttle（航空器）两个词。但所填词应该是discover的宾语，而由one of the most distant也可以判断出后面所指的应该是“星系”。因此C为正确答案。paradox似是而非的论点；自相矛盾的话。paradise天堂，乐园。shuttle航空器。三个选项均与该句逻辑关系不符。

13选？

A.according to
B.rather than
C.regardless of
D.along with

答案：B
解析：
上下文语义衔接+介词短语辨析所填词为逻辑关系短语，空前说选择基因相似的朋友，空后说具有“实用关系”的朋友，可知前后为对立关系，并且根据文章主题，可知肯定前者而否定后者，可锁定B选项rather than。A选项according to（根据）没有体现出对立及取舍关系，因此排除；C选项regardless of（不管）表让步关系，干扰性较强，但文章更强调取前舍后，因此排除；D选项along with（伴随）表顺接，故排除。故答案为rather than。
