23、ce六、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：15.00)The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: mor

And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.（分数：15.00）(1).According to the author, a bachelor resists mar

35、mammals,“ he added in a telephone interview. “They go through pregnancy and hormonal changes.“ Kinsley said he hoped public health officials and researchers will look to see if having had children protects a woman from Alzheimer“s and other forms of age-related brain decline. “When people think abou
36、t pregnancy, they think about what happens to babies and the mother from the neck down,“ said Kinsley, who presented his findings to the annual meeting of the Society of Neuroscience in Orlando, Florida. “They do not realize that hormones are washing on the brain.

43、he cinema; _.（分数：1.00）A.Jane did tooB.Jane didn“t as wellC.so did JaneD.nor did Jane 解析：解析 句意：迪克很忙，所以很少有时间去看电影；简也一样。该题考查的是倒装结构。题干中横线前面的句子有副词 rarely，表示否定的概念，横线上要填的部分表示和前面提到的情况相同，因此要用代词 nor 引导倒装结构。如果前面所说的情况是肯定的，并同样适用于另外的人，就应用 so 引导的倒装句。根据题意，该题的正确答案为 D。19.The May Day Holiday _ over, we must now get dow
44、n to work.（分数：1.00）A.beB.being C.to have beenD.to be解析：解析 句意：五一假期结束了，我们现在必须开始认真工作了。该题考查的是分词短语和它的逻辑主语构成的独立主格结构。如果分词和逻辑主语是主动关系，就用现在分词；如果是被动关系，则用过去分词。题干中的 holiday 和 be over 就是主动关系，因此用现在分词形式 being，选择 B 项。20.I haven“t met him _ the last committee meeting.（分数：1.00）A.forB.since C.atD.before解析：解析 句意：自上次委员会会
45、议以来，我一直没见过他。完成时中常使用 since 或 for 引导时间状语。since 引导的时间状语(从句)表示“自从以来；从起一直”；而 for 引导的时间状语多指一段时间。at 后面接时间点；before 意为“在之前”，均不符合题意。二、Cloze(总题数：1，分数：30.00)Children model themselves largely on their parents.
