參考答案及解析:
1. 【答案】A
【解析】range是“一系列”,rank是“排,行,列”,region是“地區(qū),地帶”,return是“返回,送回”。原文的意思是九個城市的出租車司機說他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了顧客的其他東西,region和return可以排除,rank是指排成一行或一列的東西,比如說a rank of great pines(一排挺拔的松樹),用在這里也不合適,所以答案是A。
2. 【答案】C
【解析】claim是“認領,索取”,find是“找到,發(fā)現(xiàn)”,leave是“丟下,遺忘”,declare是“申報(納稅品、房地產(chǎn)、收益等)”。從文章第一句話可以看出,主題是有關顧客遺忘在出租車上的物品,那么這里選leave的過去式left,C是正確答案。
3. 【答案】C
【解析】空格后的limb是指“肢,臂,腿”,四個選項中能和它搭配的只有artificial,artificial limb的意思是“假肢”,所以答案是C。
4. 【答案】A
【解析】上面一句話說出租車司機發(fā)現(xiàn)顧客遺忘的東西有豎琴,奶瓶,假牙和假肢,這句話說一個司機在車里找到了一個嬰兒,前面提到的都是無生命的東西,把這些東西丟在車上還情有可原,有的人居然能把活生生的孩子也忘在車上,確實讓人難以置信,兩句話在意思上是遞進的關系,所以選擇A。
5. 【答案】B
【解析】handmade是“手工的,手制的”,handheld是“掌上的”,handcrafted是“手工的,手工藝的”,handbound是“手工裝訂的”。四個選項中能和computer搭配的是handheld,所以答案是B。
6. 【答案】D
【解析】把四個選項分別填入空格,就會發(fā)現(xiàn)year和time明顯不正確,因為空格后是of 2004,應該是2004年的某段時間,如果填part,表示的時間段又不明確,所以只能選D,the second half of 2004意思是2004年下半年。
7. 【答案】C
【解析】逗號后是從句,沒有缺失的句子成分,所以不是定語從句,排除which和what,空格前是年份,所以選C。
8. 【答案】A
【解析】carryout是“實行,執(zhí)行,進行”,workout是“想出,解決,理解”,find out是“找出,發(fā)現(xiàn),查明(真相)”,figure out是“計算出,想出,理解”。四個選項中只有carry out能和從句里的主語research搭配,所以選A。
9. 【答案】B
【解析】replace是“替換,代替”,return是“歸還,回報”,recommend是“推薦,介紹”,recreate是“再創(chuàng)作,消遣,娛樂”。因為這篇文章討論的是在出租車上遺忘物品及物品的歸還,所以選擇B。
10. 【答案】D
【解析】find one way是一個固定短語,意思是“設法到達,努力達到”,所以答案是D。 這句話的意思是:“他們說,每五部手機中有四部,每20臺電腦中有19臺物歸原主!
11. 【答案】C
【解析】careful是“小心的,仔細的”,caretaking是“照管,看管”,careless是“粗心的,疏忽的”,careladen是“憂心忡忡的”。根據(jù)文章的主題,這里選擇C。
12. 【答案】B
【解析】前半句的意思是:“倫敦人對筆記本電腦似乎比別人更加粗心”,后半句是說:“丹麥人最容易忘記拿手機”,前后半句是并列的關系,所以選表示轉折的連詞while,B是正確答案。
13. 【答案】C
【解析】fall behind是“落在后面”,stay behind是“依舊落在后面”,leave behind是“不帶,忘了帶,遺留”,drop behind是“落在…的后面”。根據(jù)上下文,應該選left behind,所以選C。
14. 【答案】A
【解析】如果這道題沒有看仔細,可能會在car和taxi間猶豫,但因為空格前有back,這兩個選項都可以排除,backseat是“(汽車、會場等的)后座”,backbench是“(尤指英國下院的)后座議員席,普通議員席”。很明顯,這里應該選A。
15. 【答案】C
【解析】consequence是“后果”,fruit是“成果”,findings是“調(diào)查(或研究)的結果”,conclusion是“結論”。因為文中只列出了調(diào)查的一些結果,并沒有提到有什么結論,所以答案選C。
16. 【答案】A
【解析】四個選項都可以表示“全部的”,但只有total能和number搭配,意思是總數(shù),因此選A。
17. 【答案】C
【解析】turn in是“交還,上交”,turn on是“開,開始”,turnout是“原來是,(最后)證明是”,turnoff是“關,解雇”。turn on和turnoff明顯可以排除,turn in后面要直接加賓語,而這個空格后沒有,答案是C,這句話的意思是:“一位顧客結果是演員休?格蘭特的女朋友。”
18. 【答案】D
【解析】profile是“傳略,人物簡介,輪廓,外形”,pulse是“脈搏,意向,心態(tài)”,preface是“序言,前言”,purse是“錢包,女用小包”。待選項應該和iPod music player,mobile phone構成并列,顯然答案是purse,因此選D。
19. 【答案】A
【解析】deliver是“投遞,送交”,designate是“指明,指定,稱呼”,dedicate是“以…奉獻,把(自己、一生等)獻給”,direct是“給…指路,使向某一方向轉動”?崭窈蟮膭釉~的賓語是items,即Hugh Grant的女友落在出租車上的東西,根據(jù)詞義判斷應該選A。
20. 【答案】C
