参考答案和解析
答案：B
解析：
逻辑关系题。选项A.Therefore表示因果逻辑;B.However表示转折;C.Like-wie表示并列;D]Although表示让步。该空上一句提到“语音会占越来越大的份额”,这是明显的肯定表述。该空下一句指出“要充分发挥潜能,语音技术还需要更多突破,而且必须解决由它引发的问题”。很明显,该句对语音的表述是否定的。故本空上下文是明显的“前肯后否”,即转折逻辑,故B.为本题答案。

    63._________
    A:to
    B:on
    C:from
    D:about

    答案：C
    解析：
    研究中心的建立应该用set up（建立，设立，创办）来表示，其他选项都不能表示建立的意思。 make up组成，弥补北妆，编造；put up举起，张贴，提高；hold up举起，支撑。
    研究中心研发新技术，用的应该是研究技巧和相关设施。facility设施，设备；furniture家具；faculty能力，才能，全体教职工；factory工厂，制造厂。
    根据常理可知，研究中心研究新科技，服务的对象应该是国内的芯片厂。docile温顺的，驯服的；domestic家用的，国内的；domicile住所，永久住处，定居地；foreign国外的。
    本句中that引导的定语从句表明，远东国家的芯片厂从别国购买几乎过时的技术。这是一种处境或者情况，选项中只有situation能表达这个意思。sight景物，景象；skeleton骨架，骨骼，梗概；scene场面，现场，景象。
    结合上下文可知，该句描述的是目前芯片厂的处境，因此选择D项。traditionally传统上；surprisingly令人吃惊地，令人惊讶地；conventionally按照惯例，照老例；currently目前，当前。
    根据常理可知，外国政府不允许别的国家从他们国家进口最先进的技术。外国政府不能阻止别的国家发明或创造先进技术，而别的国家又没有先进技术可供出口，根据排除法也可知D项正确。create创造；export出口；invent发明；import进口。
    外国政府之所以不让别的国家进口最先进的技术，是因为害怕他们用于军事目的。military军事的，军用的；social社会的，社交的；industrial工业的，产业的；economic经济的，经济学的。
    reason后跟for表示“……的原因”。根据空格后的介词for可知，高额的licensing fees是他们决定是否依靠自己的原因之一。affect影响，假装，感动；effect影响，效果，印象；result结果，后果；reason原因，理由。
    该分句主要讲的是主流芯片生产技术的更新换代，四个选项中只有shift能够表示技术的更新换代。transport运送，运输；control控制；shift（意见、情况、政策）有所变动，变换，改变，常与from…to…连用；turn转动，旋转。
    根据空格前一句中的“new technology”与转折连词“while"，可知空格处的词的意思与new相对，只有outdated符合条件。outdated过时的，旧时的，落伍的；outgoing爱交际的，友好的，外向的；outward向外的，朝外面的；fashionable流行的，时尚的，时髦的。
    由常理可知，设备落伍的工厂将被边缘化。march前进，进军，进展；margi nalize使处于社会的边缘，忽视，排斥；mark做标记，留下痕迹；smash粉碎，撞击，打碎。
    大部分钱财应该是流向海外的设备经销商，vendor有“商贩，经销商”的意思。venture冒险，冒险事业，冒险行动；buyer买家，买主，买方；customer客户，主顾。
    该句子主要对设备供应商和技术拥有者的国籍进行说明，用from来表示这些人来自日本和新加坡。to 向，朝着，表示方向；on在……之上，表示位置；from来自……，表示来源；about关于，表示对象。
    这个句子的大意是：这个国家正在发展综合技术。comprehensive全面的，综合的；perspective透视画法；aggressive好斗的，挑衅的；conclusive决定性的，确凿的。
    这个句子的大意是：大部分投资将用于与技术人员和知识产权所有者建立联盟。agreement协定，协议；motivation动力，动机；together同时，在一起；alliance同盟，联盟，联姻。

    A.spot
    B.noLice
    C.point
    D.note

    答案：C
    解析：
    名词辨析题。[A]spot地点；[B]notice通知；[C]point观点，论点；[D]note笔记，音符。根据搭配proves his____“证明他的一”，四个选项中唯一符合语义的是“point”一词。作为名词noIe表示“笔记，音符”，与上文提到的“noted Arthur C．Clarke”一句不同，上文中的noted是动词“指出”之意，故可以排除该项干扰。

    A.interact
    B.interacting
    C.communicate
    D.Using

    答案：B
    解析：
    题意想要表达的意思是交互技术，再加上of后面加动名词形式比较多，所以正确答案为B。interact：互动;相互作用;互相影响。附（参考翻译）：计算机将会变得越来越高级而且更易于使用。识别速度的提升将使计算机的操作更加容易。虚拟现实是使用人的感觉不计算机迚行交互的一种技术，它也会使得人机界面更好。另外，各种新奇的计算模型正在不断发展，如生物计算使用人的器官、分子计算使用具有特定属性的分子、DNA计算采用遗传的基本单元来存储数据和执行操作。到目前为止，这些都还属于未来计算平台，能力非常有限，并且只限于理论方面的研究。科学家们之所以研究这些计算模型，原因在于嵌入硅片中的微型芯片的体积的局限性，以及即使是非常小的晶体管所产生的热量方面的局限性。

You should base your composition on the following requirements.　　1. Give examples to show how advanced technology has changed the way we learn.　　2. Tell the advantages of the application of advanced technology in learning.

    正确答案：
    【参考范文】
    Advanced Technology Is Changing the Way We Learn With the development of technology, every aspect of our life has been changed and the way we learn is no exception. The use of computer is a good example. With the help of the computer and Internet we can learn a great amount of knowledge without going to the classroom and asking professors to answer the questions, and we can also get access to the books we want to read in various libraries through the Internet.
    With the application of advanced technology we can learn more easily and efficiently. For example, when we meet some new words while reading English articles, we don’t have to look the new words up in a dictionary. With a click, the computer’s electronic dictionary will immediately tell us the meaning of the new words. In addition, the computer can help us analyze our research data and finish papers more easily.
    In a word, advanced technology has changed the way we learn and has helped us a lot in our study.
