149.lookingattheirpales该题定位在倒数第二段的首句。10.theGoliathspider扫读全文的时候注意有最高级的地方。由此我们可以将该题定位在文章最后一段的首句。PartIIISectionA11.B12.D13.B14.A15.C16.B17.D18.B11.M:Iforgottobringmypencilandpapertotakenoteswithinclass.W:That’sallright.Ihaveenoughforbothofus.Q:Whatwillthewomanmostprobablydonext?12.W:WhenisJasoncoming?M:Well,hesaidhe’dbehereatseven-thirty,butifyouknowhim,itwillbeatleasteighto’clock.Q:WhatdoweknowaboutJason?13.M:Areyoureadytocheckout?W:Yes.I’llpaythebillandyou’llcallthedeskandhaveourbaggagetakenouttothetaxi.Q:Wheredoesthisconversationmostprobablytakeplace?14.M:Remember,youpromisedtohelpmewithmyhomeworkforEnglishclass.W:ButIwanttowatchthisprogramfirst.Itisalmostover.Waitamoment,please.Q:Whatdoesthewomanmean?15.M:Iwasterriblyembarrassedwhensomeoftheaudiencegotupandleftinthemiddleoftheperformance.W:Well,somepeoplejustcan’tseemtoappreciatereal-lifedrama.Q:Whataretheytalkingabout?

2052.【答案】M【解析】faint昏迷、晕倒,最符合句意。53.【答案】L【解析】；atleast至少；atlength详细地。atleast最符合句意。54.【答案】O【解析】hesitation犹豫。hesitation最符合句意。符合语境55.【答案】H【解析】本句意为把飞行员挪到一边。aside意为一边、旁边，符合句意。56.【答案】F【解析】本句意为：这个人坐到飞行员的座位上，认真听发自下面机场通过无线电发出的紧急指令。anxious焦急的不符合句意。只urgent合适。SectionBPassage1文章导读：许多人认为数字化给落后的国家带来了一个迅速发展的机会，而另一些人认为数字化加大了富国和穷国之间的距离，使穷国更加落后。作者分析了穷国的情况，认为穷国应该在更加基础的方面得到帮助，而不是迅速普及电脑等先进设施。57.B从第二段我们可以看出，作者认为，穷国的人民关心更加现实的东西，比如食物、医疗和安全保障。即使提供给他们许多先进的数字设备，他们也会因为缺乏知识或没有电力而不能用。所以与其提供这些，不如提供更加基础的援助，所以选B。第一段最后一句话说，作者认为只是数字技术使穷国变富是一个神话，所以A错误。作者只是从数字设备和基础设备两个方面比较，而不是笼统的说富国应该帮助穷国变富，所以C错，从第二段可以看出，作者说即使提供给世界上每个家庭一台计算机，也不会有太多作用，显然问题不在于能不能负担起计算机，所以D错。58.Adivide的意思是分离，隔开。digitaldivide可译成“数字鸿沟”，即数字化使世界的贫富差距越来越大。所以A正确。在没有数字化之前，世界上就存在贫富分化。数字化的出现只是使其差距更大，而不是产生的原因，所以B，C，D错误。59.D

21文章的大意是穷国更需要基础设施和帮助，而第二段作者通过举例和论证说明了论点，所以本题选D。第二段虽然说了，穷国的人民因为没有文化而不能使用计算机，但这不是全部的原因，所以A错。答案B过于笼统，只说穷人无法使用电脑，而文章说明了穷人不能使用电脑是有具体原因的，所以B错。让每个家庭都有一台电脑是作者的一个假设，用于说明穷人无法使用电脑的原因，而不是讨论这个假设可不可能实现，所以C错。60.C文章的第二段第二句说明了穷国更多关注的是"food,healthcareandsecurity."所以选C。作者分析了数字化在现阶段大多数穷国没有太多好处，但是并没有否定数字技术的作用，所以A错误。在第一段的最后一句，作者说在给他们电脑和网络等高级设备之前，应该先晋级基础设备。在这里移动电话只是基础设施的一个例子，并不是说一定要先拥有移动电话才能用电脑，所以答案D错。61.B本题用排除法：移动电话只是一个例子来说明更加基础的设备，所以答案A错误。建造乡村电脑中心的好处与文章说明的问题无关，所以答案C错误。解决粮食、健康、安全保障的问题范围过于宽广与本文主旨无关，所以答案D错，最后得出答案为B。Passage2文章导读：太空是个充满了神秘的地方，同时也藏着危险。其中来自外太空的辐射尤为恐怖，但是，看完这篇文章，你会相信聪明的人总会找到一些解决办法的。62.A问题问的是为什么大气层对人类是至关重要的。文章的第四句说到了大气层屏蔽了大量的外来射线。63.BA，C，D选项内容在文章中均没有明确肯定，只有B对应了原文的第二段的第四句话---问题在于很难发现辐射对人的损伤，当事人当时可能感觉良好，但是他的遗传细胞可能受到损伤，将会影响到他的孩子，甚至后代。64.D从文章中我们得知，到现在为止还没有报告显示阿波罗号受到辐射损害，所以A，B，C选项均与文章意思相悖，只有D相对正确。65.D该题对应了原文的最后一段。文章说虽然到现在为止还没有报告显示阿波罗号受到辐射损害，但毕竟它登月的时间短。人类能否长时间接受辐射照射还是个未知数。防辐射的药虽然已经研制出来，但只能削减辐射对人类的损害，还谈不上根治。所以说防太空辐射不是容易的事情。66.D此文主要是谈辐射的危害大以及防辐射的一些措施。D最准确。PartV67.A【解析】just在此为副词，意为“刚刚”，做状语。此句意为“一个事件刚刚发生，街上就有报纸报道详情了。说明报纸对新闻的反应之快。68.A

22【解析】togive和giving都合乎语法，但giving强调的是正在发生的动作，而此处重点表达的是“反应快”，不是正在做什么。69.A【解析】消息，信息要靠收集。70.D【解析】后面的不定式短语表示目的。71.C【解析】提供信息的目的是为了让他人知道，所以选C。72.B【解析】other意为“其他的”。此句意为：无线电，电报，电视，及其它发明，成为报纸的竞争对手。73.A【解析】根据句中的merely及其后所述内容，应选however，表转折。74.D【解析】使用更新，更快的通讯工具，目的是提高速度。75.C【解析】报纸是印出来的，先印后看(读)。76.D【解析】keepsb.+过去分词是一种复合结构，sb.与过去分词为被动关系，意为保持这种关系的继续。此句的意思是：报纸不断地为读者提供新闻信息。77.C【解析】关于politics之类的严肃话题,只能选educate。78.B

23【解析】此句意为：报纸通过广告影响读者在经济生活中的选择。79.B【解析】大多数报纸依靠广告收入来维持生存，此现象人人皆知。80.C【解析】报纸的售价之低，不足以抵付成本的一小部分。符合上下文关于广告收入的说法。81.A【解析】收入来源应该用source。因为source指河流，泉水的发源地；常指抽象事物的根源或来源以及资料，信息的出处或来源。origin起源，起因。指事物后来发生,发展变化的最初起点,或指人的出身和血统。82.D【解析】succeedin为固定短语。此句意为：广告业务的成功，取决于报纸在客户(要打广告的人)心中的价值。83.C【解析】根据上下文，此处应该用一般现在时的被动语态，此句意为：报纸在客户心中的价值，是靠发行量衡量的。84.C【解析】该句意为：发行量的大小，很大程度上取决于发行部门的工作及报纸所提供的服务功能和娱乐功能。85.B【解析】offered作services和entertainment的定语。86.D【解析】information后面接介词about，表示“关于”。PartVI87.Itisnotuntiltheyloseit.强调句的基本结构是:Itis/was...that/who88.withdirtyclotheswith(without)引起的状语结构+买
