47、. Therefore C. Furthermore D. However(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查逻辑关系。上一句指出成年人一般每个晚上需要七至九小时的睡眠才能感到精力非常充沛并以最佳状态正常工作,下一句则指出美国人的睡眠时间比过去少了。由此可知,表示转折的However“然而,但是”符合上下文的逻辑关系,是正确答案。Otherwise“否则”表示条件,Therefore“因此”表示结果,Furthermore“而且”表示递进,都不符合题目的要求。(2).A. averaged B. attained C. allocated D. alleged(分数:2.50)
48、A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。从语意分析,allocate“分配,分派”和 allege“断言,宣称”与宾语的搭配都不合理。由于本句涉及的是一项调查结果,average“平均有”一词把美国人的平均睡眠时间清楚地表达了出来,故正确答案为 Aaveraged。而 attain“达到,获得”的意思显然与文意不符。(3).A. in B. since C. over D. before(分数:2.50)A.B.

B.C.D.解析:解析 考查形容词辨析。从本段第四句的相关内容 their cognitive ab
