24、意，此处选 C项最合适。2.（分数：0.50）A.usingB.used C.useD.be used解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法题。详细解答 本题考查分词作定语的用法。由于主语“The same procedure”与“use for preview skimming”之间的被动关系，所以要用过去分词作定语。所以正确答案为 B项。3.（分数：0.50）A.readingB.understandingC.workingD.skimming 解析：试题分析 本题是一道理解题。详细解答 reading 的含义为“阅读”；understanding 含义为“理解”；working 含义为“工作”；
25、skimming含义为“泛读”。根据上下文，此处要讲的主要是 skimming，所以正确答案为 D。4.（分数：0.50）A.onB.while C.asD.at解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法题。详细解答 本题考查的是分词作状语的语法内容。分词作状语表示时间前面可以再加上“when”，“while”一类的词，但分词的逻辑主语要和主句的主语一致。考查四个选项，选项 B最合适。5.（分数：0.50）A.global B.universalC.unilateralD.partial解析：试题分析 本题是一道词义辨析题。详细解答 global 的含义为“全面的，包括一切的”；universal 的含义
26、为“全体的，共同的”；unilateral含义为“单方面的”；partial 的含义为“片面的”。根据上下文，此处选 A项最合适。6.（分数：0.50）A.gettingB.to get C.gotD.have got解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法题。详细解答 考生要结合上下文来做这道题。从前面可以看出，此处是 in order to引出的不定式的排比形式。所以，此处要用到不定式。因此正确答案为 B。7.（分数：0.50）A.efficiently B.effectivelyC.affectivelyD.effectually解析：试题分析 本题是一道形近词辨析词。详细解答 efficient
27、ly 的含义为“有效率地”；effectively 的含义为“有作用地”；affectingly 含义为“动人地”；effectually 的含义为“(不用于指人)产生预期结果的”。根据文意，此处选 A项最合适。8.（分数：0.50）A.substanceB.resourceC.sourceD.material 解析：试题分析 本题是一道近义词辨析题。详细解答 substance 的含义为“实物(与仅能看到、听到或想象之事物相对)”；resource 的含义为“资源”，特别是自然的，矿产的等；source 含义为“源头，原始资料”；material 的含义为“资料”。根据文意，此处选 D项最合
28、适。9.（分数：0.50）A.whichB.thatC.at which D.at that解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法题。详细解答 本题考查的是定语从句关系代词的用法。“以速度”要加介词 at，文中没有用到 at，所以要用在修饰 speed的定语从句的关系代词前就只能用关系代词 which。因此，正确答案为 C。10.（分数：0.50）A.fistB.histC.gist D.list解析：试题分析 本题是一道形近词辨析题。详细解答 fist 的含义为“拳头”；gist 的含义为“主旨；要点；大意”；list 的含义为“清单，一览表”。根据文意，此处选 C项最合适。11.（分数：0.50）
29、A.reverseB.reviewC.revise D.revert解析：试题分析 本题是一道形近词辨析题。详细解答 reverse 的含义为“相反的事物”；review 的含义为“复查”；revise 的含义为“复查、校订、复习”；revert 含义为“恢复”。根据上下文，此处 C项最合适。12.（分数：0.50）A.onB.aboutC.forD.to 解析：试题分析 本题是一道介词搭配题。详细解答 本题要求考生结合上下文作出正确的选则。由于前面用的动词是 adapt，所以根据 adapt sth.to sth这样的固定搭配，此处应该选择选项 D，其它三项都不适用于此处。13.（分数：0.
30、50）A.WhenB.AsC.After D.Before解析：试题分析 本题是一道理解题。详细解答 when 和 as含义为“当的时候”；after 含义为“在之后”；before 含义为“在之前”。分析上下文，可以看，出此处是要表达“在一次泛读之后”还要做一些事。因此，此处选 C最合适。14.（分数：0.50）A.adapt B.adoptC.changeD.adept解析：试题分析 本题是一道形近词辨析题。详细解答 adapt 的含义为“使某事物适合于某种情况”；adopt 的含义为“收养，采纳”；change 的含义为“改变”；adept 含义为“做某事内行的”。根据此处的句意，所以选
31、项 A为正确答案。15.（分数：0.50）A.is B.areC.wasD.were解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法题。详细解答 本题考生首先要注意时态问题，通读全文不难看出本文通篇时态是一般现在时，所以可排除C、D 两项。其次空格后面直接接的是 one type of reading，所以应该用到单数，因此本题的正确答案为A。16.（分数：0.50）A.implies B.appliesC.hintsD.points解析：试题分析 本题是一道词义辨析题。详细解答 imply 的含义为“含有的意思”；apply 含义为“适用，应用”；hint 的含义为“暗示，示意”；point 的含义为“指”。
32、根据文意，此处 A项最合适。17.（分数：0.50）A.howeverB.neverthelessC.therefore D.thus解析：试题分析 本题是一道词义辨析题。详细解答 however 的含义为“然而”；nevertheless 的含义为“虽然如此，然而”；therefore 的含义为“因此”；thus 是副词，含义为“因此”。根据文意与结构，此处要一个承接连词，所以 C项为正确答案。18.（分数：0.50）A.run throughB.run overC.go onD.go through 解析：试题分析 本题是一道词义辨析题。详细解答 run through 的含义为“快速地穿
33、过或传遍”；ran over 的含义为“从上面轧过”；go on的含义为“继续”；so through 的含义为“研究，检查”。根据此句的句意，选项 D为正确答案。19.（分数：0.50）A.a number ofB.an amount of C.manyD.a few解析：试题分析 本题是一道语法辨析题。详细解答 本题四个选项都有“一些”的含义。但是考查 practice一词，它是一个抽象名词，属于不可数名词，因此在它前面只能能用 B项“an amount of”。20.（分数：0.50）A.requires B.requestsC.requitesD.requisite解析：试题分析 本题
34、是一道词义辨析词。详细解答 require 的含义为“需要”；request 的含义为“要求，请求”；requite 的含义为“回报”；requisite是形容词，含义为“必要的”。根据文意，A 项为正确答案。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.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true of women in pattern families?（分数：2.00）A.They earn
35、 a reliable and comparatively high income.B.They continue to work solely to meet the urgent needs of their family. C.They enjoy the fellowship involved in working with other women.D.They serve as models of behavior for others in the region.解析：试题分析 这是一道事实判断题。详细解答 B 意为：“她们继续只为家庭的急需忙碌”。从第三段对第三类妇女的描述来看，
36、她们的生活已经不再是仅仅围绕着满足生活基本需要。她们不再过迁移的生活，而是有固定的工作，孩子们整年上学，她们也积极开辟生活和就业机会(create new roles for themselves for which no local models exist)，加强学业自修，等等。22._ have an average of three children.（分数：2.00）A.Pattern familiesB.Pattern familiesC.Pattern families D.None of all解析：试题分析 这是一道事实分析题。详细解答 由文章第三段“The greatest
37、 amount of change from pattern I，however，is in pattern families，who no longer migrate at allBoth parents work full time in the area and have an average of three children”可知答案 C是正确的。23.All of the following statements about pattern children express differences EXCEPT _.（分数：2.00）A.they migrate for part
38、 of each year B.they spend less time contributing to family incomeC.they spend more months on schoolD.their parents sometimes work at jobs rather than fanning解析：试题分析 这是一道事实判断题。详细解答 A 意为：“他们每年过一段迁移的生活”。第二段对比了第一种模式和第二种模式的异同。第二种模式的人仍然过着迁移的生活，但迁移时间缩短(on reduced scale)，原因经常是让孩子读完一学期的书。可见，这两种生活方式的人还是过着迁移的
39、生活，只是程度有所差别。24.Which of the following titles best reflects the main focus of the passage?（分数：2.00）A.A Survey of Three Mexican - American Families at Work in Texas.B.Innovative Career Women: Effects on Family Unity.C.Changes in the Life - styles of Migrant Mexican - American Families. D.Farming of Fa
40、mily: The Unavoidable Choice for Migrant Farm Workers.解析：试题分析 这是一道考查文章主旨的题。详细解答 C 意为：“迁移的墨西哥族美国人家庭的生活方式变化”。在第一段作者指出，她研究的对象是正在给美国得克萨斯州内一个小区域的社会生活带来变化的妇女，这些妇女是墨西哥族美国人，属于农业季节工人(migrant agricultural workers)。当然，这一地区的变化不止一种，但是作者重点研究的是三种相关的家庭行为模式。25.The author s attitude towards the three patterns of beha
41、vior mentioned in the passage is best described as one of _.（分数：2.00）A.great admirationB.unbiased objectivity C.dissatisfactionD.indifference解析：试题分析 这是一道事实分析题。详细解答 B 意为：“不加任何偏见的客观性”。本文客观地描述了一个社会调查，并没有对哪种生活模式有褒贬。因此答案 B 是正确的。六、Text 2(总题数：5，分数：10.00)26.The word “demographers“ ( Line 1, Paragraph 7 ) mo
42、st probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.people in favor of the trend of democracyB.advocates of migration between statesC.scientists engaged in the study of population D.conservatives clinging to old patterns of life解析：试题分析 这是一道词义解析题。详细解答 根据全文主题及上下文内容判断，只有选项 C“从事人口统计的科学家”与本篇主题一致，并与前后意思连贯。选项 A“赞同民主倾向的人”及 D“固守
43、旧的生活方式的保守主义者”均与主题无关。而 B“对迁居其他州府持赞成意见的人”亦与前后意思不符。27.We can see from the available statistics that _.（分数：2.00）A.California was once the most thinly populated area in the whole USB.the top 10 states in growth rate of population were all located in the WestC.cities with better climates benefited unanimo
44、usly from migrationD.Arizona ranked second of all states in its growth rate of population 解析：试题分析 这是一道事实分析题。详细解答 作者在第八段中提到：在这次人口普查中，增长速度最快的地区当数落基山脉周围各州，其中 Nevada和 Arizona州增长最快，分别为 63.5%和 53.1%。故选项 D是正确的。排名前十位的是否均在西部?在本段最后一句中可以看到：南部的两个州 Florida和 Texas也在其列；故选项 B是错误的。那么迁移的人口是否都流向气候温和的城市?对此，作者在倒数第四段中作了叙
45、述：逃避城市的拥挤这一因素对由寒带向比较温暖的气温带迁移这一现象产生了一定的影响。随后作者在倒数第二段中又提到：为逃避加利福尼亚的烟雾、罪恶及其它的城市弊端，许多人迁移到 Oregon，Idaho 及 Alaska等比较寒冷的州。由此可见，选项 C是有悖原意的。选项 A也缺乏事实依据。28.The US population in the 1970s is _ largest of the world.（分数：2.00）A.the firstB.the secondC.the third D.the fourth解析：试题分析 这是一道文章细节题。详细解答 由文章第三段“Altogether，
46、the US population rose in the 1970s by 23.2 million people-numerically the third largest growth ever recorded in a single decade”可知，答案 C是正确的。29.The census distinguished itself from previous studies on population movement in that _.（分数：2.00）A.it stresses the climatic influence on population distributionB.it highlights the contribution of continuous waves of immigrantsC.it reveals the Americans new pursuit of spacious living D.it elaborates the delayed effects of yester
