23、ween di(总题数:20,分数:10.00)1.(分数:0.50)A.similar B.feasibleC.inferiorD.incredible解析:选项与释义 Asimilar 相似的,类似的 Bfeasible 可实行的;有理的 Cinferior 次于的;劣等的;下级的 Dincredible 难以置信的;惊人的考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本段从第二句起论述“供求关系是大多数产品背后的原动力”。该论述暗示:支持越橘发展到目前程度的原动力与大多数产品背后的原动力一样。本段尾句“Thus was the cycle kept churning”(供求关系的循环就这样持续滚动
24、着)暗示“一种循环往复性”,那无差异、无变化性。由此可以推断本题的正确答案是 A“similar”(相似的,类似的)。2.(分数:0.50)A.qualifyingB.incorporating C.denotingD.coining解析:选项与释义 Aqualifying 限定,修饰 Bincorporating 包含;结合 Cdenoting 表示;意味着 Dcoining 创造,杜撰(新词语)考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句前半部分的含义是“美洲印第安人给越橘起了若干名字”。由此可以推断本句的后半部分应该讲:许多名字包含表达“苦”或“鲜艳”之意。可见本题的正确答案是B“incor
25、porating”(包含)。3.(分数:0.50)A.fromB.to C.offD.beyond解析:选项与释义 Afrom 从起;从中;由于 Bto 归于,属于 Coff 从离开;从向下 Dbeyond 超出;非所及考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查“be native to”(某地所特有的)这一固定表达形式。故本题的正确答案是 B。4.(分数:0.50)A.commandB.yieldC.demand D.quantity解析:选项与释义 Acommand 掌握;运用能力;命令 Byield 产量 Cdemand 需求 Dquantity 数量;分量考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句
26、结尾的含义是“创造产生供应(sup ply)”。这就暗示前面应该是“demand”(需求),因为“供(supply)”和“demand”(求)是一对关系,有“求”才有“供”。可见本题的正确答案应该是 C“demand”。5.(分数:0.50)A.in B.forC.byD.through解析:选项与释义 Ain(表示手段和原材料等)以、用 Bfor 为了;适合于 Cby(表示方法、手段)靠,用,通过 Dthrough 经由,以;(指空间)穿过,通过考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查介词“in”的正确使用。本句所欲表达的含义是“印第安人主要以肉糜压缩饼的方式吃越橘”。“以方式”应该用介词“in”,
27、故选项 A是正确答案。6.(分数:0.50)A.signB.trailC.symbol D.mark解析:选项与释义 Asign 标志(牌);标记;征兆;迹象 Btrail 痕迹;足迹;残迹 C symbol 象征;符号 Dmark 记号;符号;标记考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查同义名词的辨析与使用。本句所欲表达的含义是:“越橘是圣诞节的象征”,故本题的正确答案只能是选项 C“symbol”(象征)。7.(分数:0.50)A.when B.whetherC.albeitD.whereas解析:选项与释义 Awhen 当时候 Dwhether 是否 Calbeit 尽管,即使,虽然 Dwher
28、eas 鉴于;而、却、反之考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查连词的辨析与正确使用。本句前半部分的含义是:“当越橘被烘烤时,越橘保持耐咀嚼的质地特征”。可见,选项 A“when”(当时候)应该是本题的正确答案。本句中“when baked”等于“when they(cranberries)are baked”。8.(分数:0.50)A.immensityB.inadequacyC.immunityD.incentive 解析:选项与释义 Aimmensity 广大;无限;大量 Binadequacy 不充分;不足之处 C immunity免除;免疫(力) Dincentive 动机;刺激;鼓励,奖

30、e”,因为“cycle”表达一种“循环轮转”的相互关系。10.(分数:0.50)A.offB.thanC.itselfD.still 解析:选项与释义 Aoff(better off)(尤指经济上)境况好起来,生活富裕起来 Bthan (better than)比好 Citself(better oneself)改善自己地位(或经济状况等) Dstill (修饰比较级)更,还要考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查副词 still与比较级语法形式的搭配使用。“Better still”的含义是“更好的是”。本题的正确答案是 D“still”。考生对此类固定搭配使用方法要予以高度重视。11.(分数:0
31、.50)A.dilemmas B.remedyC.ingredientD.remains解析:选项与释义 Adilemmas 窘境,困境,进退两难 Bremedy 治疗法;药物 Cingredient 配料;成分;要素,因素 Dremains 残余;遗骸考点解析 本题是一道并列平行结构题,考查由“and”一词构成的名词类并列平行结构。本句“and”一词前面的名词“opportunities”(机遇)暗示其后的名词应该是“困难”,由此可以推断本题的正确答案应该是 A“dilemmas”(困境)。12.(分数:0.50)A.whileB.if onlyC.long beforeD.if 解析:选项
32、与释义 Awhile 当时候 Bif only 只要 Clong before 早在之前 Dif 如果考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查连词的辨析与使用。本句结尾部分的含义是:“如果越橘被溢洒出来,很难把桌布清理干净”。故本题的正确答案是 D“if”(如果)。本句中的“if spilled”等于“if it is spilled”。13.(分数:0.50)A.intrinsicallyB.marginallyC.intuitivelyD.mysteriously 解析:选项与释义 Aintrinsically 内在地;固有地;本质上 Bmarginally 在边上,边沿地 Cintuitivel
33、y直觉地 D mysteriously 不可思议地;难以理解地;神秘地考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句话后半部分欲表达的含义是:许多名字包含表达“苦的”或更难以理解地“过分鲜艳的”词语。谈到词语固然是“容易理解”或“令人难以理解”这两种情况。由此可以推断本题的正确答案是 D“mysteriously”。14.(分数:0.50)A.mercuryB.mush C.muscleD.mess解析:选项与释义 Amercury 水银 Bmush 软绵绵的东西;软块 Cmuscle 肌肉;力量,实力 Dmess凌乱状态;一团糟考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句中的“unlike”(与不同)
34、一词十分重要,暗示此词前后两部分的语意应该存在某种对立关系。“unlike”一词前面的含义是“越橘保持一种耐咀嚼的质地特征”;该词后面的部分应含有“不耐咀嚼的”含义。由此可以推断出本题的正确答案是 B“mush”(软绵绵的东西)。15.(分数:0.50)A.memberB.number C.kindD.flavor解析:选项与释义 Amember 成员 Bnumber 许多(any number of 许多) Ckind 种类 Dflavor 风味考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查“any number of”这一固定的表达形式。“any number of”的含义是“许多”。本题的正确答案是
35、B。考生在解题时一定要避免“想当然”,因为这毕竟是考研英语。16.(分数:0.50)A.deliciousB.dubiousC.durable D.deliberate解析:选项与释义 Adelicious 美味的,可口的 Bdubious 含糊的;怀疑的 Cdurable 持久的;耐用的 Ddeliberate 审慎的;蓄意的考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句中的特殊标点符号(冒号)暗示:本句冒号后面的含义应该与冒号前面所表达的含义相同。冒号后面的含义是:“FFPS 的保质期是两年”。故冒号前面应该填入一个表达“时间”概念的词语,由此可以推断选项 C“durable”(持久的)是本题的
36、正确答案。17.(分数:0.50)A.progress B.propositionC.prophetD.proportion解析:选项与释义 Aprogress 发展;前进 B proposition 命题;论点;提议 Cprophet 预言者,先知 Dproportion 比例考点解析 本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本题空白处后面的“from colonial curiosity to business-school case study”(从殖民地时期的奇品到商学院的案例研究)暗示本题的正确答案应该是一个表示事物“发展”的名词,故本题的正确答案应该是 A“progress”(发展)。18.(分
37、数:0.50)A.obtainB.mouldC.assimilateD.lies 解析:选项与释义 Aobtain 获得,得到 Bmould 使形成;塑造 Cassimilate 吸收 Dlies(抽象事物)存在,在(于)考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查固定动词形式“lie in”(存在于)的用法。该句破折号后面部分的含义是:“对于现代饮食的机遇和困境更深刻的理解存在于越橘从殖民地时期的奇品到商学院案例研究这一发展传说中”。故选项 D是正确答案。本题的难点在于本句破折号后面是一个倒装句,以至于“lie”和“in”这个词分开,这就加大了解题的难度。考生要注意倒装句,因为这通常是考点。19.(分数
38、:0.50)A.althoughB.only ifC.because D.as though解析:选项与释义 Aalthough 尽管,虽然 Bonly if 除非才 Cbecause 因为 Das though仿佛,好像考点解析 本题是一道词汇题,考查连词的辨析和应用。本题所欲表达的含义是“因为,白人定居者给这种美味重新起名字”。这里所表达的是一种因果关系,故应该用“be cause”。可见本题的正确答案是 C“because”。20.(分数:0.50)A.at every turnB.in turn C.to a turnD.by turns解析:选项与释义 Aat every turn
39、事事;处处;经常 Bin turn 转而;反过来;依次,轮流 Cto a turn正好,恰好 Dby turns 轮流,交替考点解析 本题是一道句间语意连接题。本题前一句讲:“需求推动了供给”。本句讲“供给推动需求”。可见,这两句话论述一种相对关系,故本题的正确答案应该是 B“in turn”(转而;反过来)。三、Section Reading Co(总题数:0,分数:0.00)四、Part A(总题数:0,分数:0.00)五、Text 1(总题数:5,分数:10.00)21.Which of the following can be inferred from the text?(分数:2.

41、:大多数人在处理佣人问题的方法上采取了新的作法。故选项 C应该是正确答案。考生在解题时一定要注意转折词的出现和使用,更要注意尾段对全文主旨论题的总结性概括和点题。22.How does the author feel about Mr Alan?(分数:2.00)A.His dismal thought is impractical.B.His relevant argument is acceptable. C.His apparent solution is implausible.D.His clear-sighted report is most trust-worthy.解析:考点解

43、s resignation.B.refute the conclusion made by Mr Kerit.C.describe the presidents nomination.D.illustrate the persistent servant problem. 解析:考点解析 这是一道文章结构题。第二、三段首句的“In Britain”和“In America”暗示这两段是对第一段“both sides of the Atlantic”的展开论述。考生在解题时一定要注意通过段落主题句去捕捉全文结构和主旨内容。24.According to the text, the servant
44、 problem is to the ruling class what(分数:2.00)A.the political problem to the ruler.B.the embarrassment to the home secretary.C.the chronic ailment to the patient.
