__________________________________________________________________________________________ 解析:

"On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog," read the title of a famous Peter Steiner cartoon,【C1】______nowhere is it truer than Internet dating. The experience is by now familiar: the 【C2】______mate who seemed just your【C3】______in a profile turns out to be a disappointment in person. There may be ways, however, to【C4】______a lying person before you find yourself 【C5】______from him or her at a table lit by candles. Researchers from Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison compared the【C6】______heights, weights, and ages of 78 Internet dating participants to their profiles on four dating websites. They noticed several 【C7】______from people who were less than【C8】______. For example, they were less likely to 【C9】______to themselves as "I"; used indirect expressions,【C10】______"not boring" instead of "exciting" to describe themselves; and stuck to【C11】______descriptions. "People do this because they want to【C12】______themselves from their misleading statements," explained Catalina Toma, an author of the study, in a statement. Using these indications, the researchers【C13】______identified liars about 65 percent of the time. People lied most frequently about their 【C14】______, with women slimming down, on average, by 8.5 pounds, and men by 1.5 pounds. At least half the subjects【C15】______their height, and nearly 20 percent changed their age. Despite the【C16】______of lies, volunteers proved【C17】______at catching them. Fortunately, Toma and the team's research【C18】______up the possibility of a software that could【C19】______lies for you, though Internet dating participants should be careful what they wish for—nearly everyone in the study lied in some【C20】______way.(分数:40.00)

A.only

B.innocent

C.unique

D.potential √

(4).【C4】(分数:2.00)

A.spot √

B.locate

C.trust

D.fight

解析:解析:第1段主要说明网络恋爱可能有被欺骗的危险。由本句的however可推断此处给出了减少上当受骗的方法。空格后为a lying person(说谎的人),因此应选A项,spot指“发现难以察觉的东西”。

(5).【C5】(分数:2.00)

A.away

B.across √

C.off

D.apart

解析:解析:上一段最后一句提到见面却大失所望,因此推断这里是表示见面约会的意思,约会一起吃饭的时候,按常识也知道是相对而坐,故选B项across“(位置)在另一边”。

A.average

B.overall

C.actual √

D.acceptable

A.precise

B.objective

C.short √

D.clear

解析:解析:根据常识推断,说谎的人不会用precise“准确的”、objective“客观的”或clear“清晰的”语言描述自己,因此C项short“简短的”为最佳答案,用语越简短越不容易暴谎言。

(12).【C12】(分数:2.00)

A.protect

B.distance √

C.save

D.rescue

A.possibility

B.disappearance

C.frequency √

D.crime

解析:解析:根据常识可知人们在网络中说谎的现象很常见,故C项frequency“频繁”符合语义。

How does literary style evolve? Surprisingly, 【C1】______lie in words with seemingly little meaning, such as "to" and "that". By analysing【C2】______writers use such "content-free" words, Daniel Rockmore and colleagues at Dartmouth College in Hanover were able to conduct the first, large-scale style analysis of literature. Content-free words are【C3】______of writing style, Rockmore says. While two authors might use the【C4】______content words to describe a similar event, they will use content-free words to【C5】______their content words in a different way. Using the Project Gutenberg digital library, Rockmore's team analysed 7733 English language works written since 1550,【C6】______how often and in what【C7】______content-free words appeared. As you might expect, they found that writers were【C8】______influenced by their predecessors. They also found that as the number of literature works grew, the influence of older works【C9】______. Authors in the 【C10】______periods wrote in a very similar way to one another, the researchers found, probably because they all read the same【C11】______body of literature. But approaching the modern era,【C12】______more people were writing and more works were【C13】______from many eras and numerous styles, authors' styles were still very similar to those of their【C14】______contemporaries. "It's as if they find dialects in time," says Alex Bentley. "Content is what makes us【C15】______, but content-free words put us in different【C16】______." 【C17】______writers should be most influenced by their contemporaries【C18】______the great works of the past is interesting, Rockmore says, because it challenges the【C19】______of "classic" literature. When it comes to style【C20】______, perhaps we aren't so strongly influenced by the classics after all.(分数:40.00)

(1).【C1】(分数:2.00)

A.proofs

B.clues √

C.data

(2).【C2】(分数:2.00)

A.where

B.why

C.whose

D.how √

解析:解析:将四个选项代入句中,首先排除C,语义不通。作家“在什么情况下(where)”、“为什么(why)使用”虚词,与研究文学风格的演化没有关系。因此本题选D。

https://www.360docs.net/doc/d812807352.html,cking

B.indicative √

C.free

D.specifying

解析:解析:上文提及洛克摩尔团队分析了7733部文学作品。而虚词的使用频率在分析时是需要统计追踪的。故选A项track“追踪”。

(7).【C7】(分数:2.00)

A.format

B.order

C.context √

D.amount

解析:解析:填入的词需与介词in搭配,空格后面的appeared提示本题应选C项context“语境”。

(8).【C8】(分数:2.00)

A.weakly

A.continued

B.shrank √

C.disappeared

D.increased

(11).【C11】(分数:2.00)

A.small √

B.entire

C.extensive

D.diverse

解析:解析:下句提及到现代,涌现出的文学作品更多了(more works),因此推断“相比之下早期的文学作品数量较少”,故选A项small“小的”,a small body of表示“数量少”。

A.because

B.when √

C.unless

D.if

解析:解析:分析句子结构,空格所在处为从句的引导词,且该从句为定语从句。从句的主谓宾结构完整,空格前提到表“时间”的the modern era,因此选B项when。

(13).【C13】(分数:2.00)

A.distinct

B.separate

C.available √

D.forthcoming

解析:解析:此处意为“写作的人越多,更多作品就——”,C项available“可得到的”代入空格,句意通顺。

(14).【C14】(分数:2.00)

A.famous

B.international

C.young

D.immediate √

(15).【C15】(分数:2.00)

A.unique √

B.respectable

C.noticeable

D.successful

解析:解析:内容能将作品区分开来,因此选A项unique“独一无二的”。

(16).【C16】(分数:2.00)

A.moods

B.directions

C.groups √

D.situations

解析:解析:根据上文可知,虚词体现了写作风格,即虚词能将作品归人不同的类别,C项groups“组别”正确。

(17).【C17】(分数:2.00)

A.That √

B.Since

C.What

D.As

C.essence

D.reach √

解析:解析:由上文的influenced等可知此处强调的是同代入的影响而非过去作品的影响.因此选D项reach“(影响的)程度”。

(20).【C20】(分数:2.00)

A.at least √

B.at large

C.at best

D.at random

解析:解析:本句的意思是“谈到写作风格的时候,似乎我们并未受到经典文学的强烈影响。”此处将经典文学的影响范围缩小至写作风格,A项at least“至少”符合语境。

The human nose is an underrated tool.Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals,1 this is largely because,2 animals,we stand upright.This means that our noses are 3 to perceiving those smells which float through the air,4 the majority of smells which stick to surfaces.In fact5,we are extremely sensitive to smells,6 we do not generally realize it.Our noses are capable of 7 human smells even when these are 8 to far below one part in one million.

To help homeless people 3 independence, the federal government must support job training programs, 4 the minimum wage, and fund more low-cost housing. 5 everyone agrees on the numbers of Americans who are homeless. Estimates 6 anywhere from 600,000 to 3 million. 7 the figure may vary, analysts do agree on another matter: that the number of the homeless is 8 , one of the federal government's studies 9 that the number of the homeless will reach nearly 19 million by the end of this decade. Finding ways to 10 this growing homeless population has become increasingly difficult. 11 when homeless individuals manage to find a 12 that will give them three meals a day and a place to sleep at night, a good number still spend the bulk of each day 13 the street.

Many others, 14 not addicted or mentally ill, simply lack the everyday 15 skills needed to turn their lives 16 .

Passage One However important we may regard school life to be, there is no denying (否认) the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom. Therefore, the great influence of parents cannot be ignored by the teacher. They can become strong help to the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously go against the learning aims. Administrators have been aware of the need to keep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools. Many principals have conducted lectures explaining such matter as the reading readiness program, manuscript writing and developmental mathematics. Moreover, the classroom teacher, with the permission of the supervisors, can also play an important role in enlightening parents. The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year, as well as new ways of reporting pupil′s progress, can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home. To illustrate, suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly inter If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics, and at the same time, enjoying the work. Too often, however, teachers′ conferences with parents are devoted to pretty accounts of children′s misbehaviors, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestion for punishment and rewards at home. What is needed is more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional adviser, plants ideas in parents′ minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom. In this way, the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngst ers′ capacities. (355) 1.The central idea expressed in the above passage is that [A]home training is more important than school training because a child spends so many hours with his parents. [B]teachers can and should help parents to understand and further the aims of the school. [C]there are many ways in which the mathematics program can be implemented at home. [D]parents unconsciously have gone against the teaching aims. 2.The author directly discusses the fact that [A]parents drill their children too much in arithmetic. [B]principals have explained the new art programs to parents. [C] a father can have his son help him construct articles at home. [D]a parent′s misguided efforts can be properly directed. 3.It can reasonably be inferred that the author [A]is satisfied with present relationships between home and school. [B]feels that the traditional program in mathematics is slightly superior to the developmental program. [C] [D]is of the opinion that teachers of this generation are inferior to those of the last generation. 4.The author implies that [A]participation in interesting activities relating to a subject improves one′s achievement in that area.[B]too many children are lazy and have poor work habits. [C]school principals do more than their share in interpreting the curriculum to the parents. [D]teachers should occasionally make home visits to parents. 5.We may infer that the writer of the article does favor [A]a father′s helping his son with the latter′s studies.
