26、ce to live, maintain friendships, and【C19】_a family. Marriages between people of different national【C20】_(but the same race and religion) have been commonplace here since colonial times.（分数：40.00）(1).【C1】（分数：2.00）A.linkingB.concerning C.connectingD.correlating解析：解析：考查动词辨析。根据语境可知，此处强调的是“关于年轻夫妻的第一次婚姻”
27、。Bconcerning 意为“涉及，关于”，符合语境，为正确答案。其他选项：linking，connecting，correlating 表示的是一个动作概念，意为“连接，结合”，不如 concerning 准确与恰当。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.personalB.unusualC.emotional D.magnetic解析：解析：考查形容词辨析。本句子的主语为 Most American marriages(大多数美国人的婚姻)，空格处形容词修饰 attraction and affection(吸引和爱慕)，句子的意思为“尤其是年轻人的初次婚姻依然是_吸引和爱慕的结果”，而
28、且句子中有相对应的成分：practical。因此 Cemotional“情感的”符合句意，为正确选项。personal“个人的”；unusual“不常见的，罕见的”；magnetic“磁石的”，均不符合题意。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.moreB.lessC.rather D.other解析：解析：考查逻辑关系。空格处所在句子的意思为：大多数美国人的婚姻，尤其是年轻人的初次婚姻，依然是情感相吸和互相爱慕的结果，_处于现实的忧虑。空格两边明显是对立的，rather than 意为“而不是”，符合句意，因此正确答案为 Crather。“more than+名词”表示“不仅仅是”，不如ra
29、ther than 恰当：less than 意为“少于”，显然不符合题意；other than 意为“除了”，亦不符合语境。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.dating B.appointmentC.engagementD.matching解析：解析：考查名词辨析。空格处所在句意为：青少年在高中时就开始_，并且通常是通过他们自己的学习和社会_找到伴侣的。根据“find mates”可以确定答案为 Adating“约会”。appointment“任命”；engagement“约定，订婚”，程度较深；matching“匹配，比赛”，均不符合题意。(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.pos
30、itionB.associationC.contacts D.contract解析：解析：考查名词辨析。空格处所在句意为：青少年在高中时就开始约会，并且通常是通过他们自己的学习和社会_找到伴侣的。Ccontacts 意为“交际，接触，联系”，符合句意，为正确答案。position 意为“位置，地位”；association 意为“联盟，协会”；contract 意为“合约，协议”，均不符合题意。(6).【C6】（分数：2.00）A.certainB.embarrassedC.hesitatedD.free 解析：解析：考查上下文语义及形容词辨析。根据原文的已知线索“Though”可知，上下文的
31、逻辑关系为转折。根据下文的“most choose a mate of similar background(大多数人还是选择背景相似的伴侣)”可知，前句应涉及选择伴侣的问题。空格处所在的句意为“尽管年轻人从_群体中选择朋友是_”，Dfree“自由的”，符合语境，为正确答案。certain“确定的”；embarrassed“尴尬的”；hesitated“犹豫的”，均不符合题意。(7).【C7】（分数：2.00）A.similarB.identicalC.differentialD.diverse 解析：解析：考查形容词辨析。空格处所在句子的意思为“尽管年轻人从_群体中选择朋友是自由的，但大多数
32、还是找背景相似的伴侣”。Ddiverse“多种多样的，多样化的”，与后面的 similar 形成对应，且符合句意，为正确答案。similar“类似的”；identical“相同的”；differential“差异的，区别的”，均不符合题意。(8).【C8】（分数：2.00）A.forB.likelyC.due D.because解析：解析：考查惯用搭配。根据语境可知，空格处所在句子与上句是因果关系，即本句是对上句进行解释。due to 意为“由于”，代入句中，意为“这一部分是由于家长的引导”，符合语境，因此 Cdue 为正确答案。其他三项均不符合题意。(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）A.in
33、fluence B.giveC.makeD.offer解析：解析：考查动词辨析。空格处所在句子的意思为：家长虽然不能为子女挑选配偶，但他们通常可以通过_选择。根据语境可知，此处的选择为子女们的选择。Ainfluence“影响”，符合句意，表示父母影响子女的选择，故选 A。give“给予”；make“做出”；offer“提供”，均不符合题意。(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）A.soundingB.avoidingC.expectingD.voicing 解析：解析：考查动词辨析。四个选项均为动词的现在分词形式。空格处所在句子的意思为：家长虽然不能为子女挑选配偶，但他们通常可以通过_对他们认
34、为不合适的人的反对来施加影响。Dvoicing“说出，讲出来”，符合句意，为正确答案。avoid“避免”；expect“期望”；sound 主要用作不及物动词，表示“发音，听起来”，均不符合题意。(11).【C11】（分数：2.00）A.MoreoverB.However C.ThereforeD.Furthermore解析：解析：考查逻辑关系。上一段介绍了年轻人在选择配偶时一般是找背景相似的伴侣，而本段段首讲述了：不同群体问的婚姻正在增加，所以上下文的意思是相反的。BHowever 表转折，符合文意，为正确答案。Moreover“再者，此外，而且”，表递进；Therefore“因此”，表因果
35、；Furthermore“此外，而且”，表递进，均不符合题意。(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）A.mobility B.motiveC.moralD.mission解析：解析：考查名词辨析。空格处所在句子与上文为因果关系，解释不同群体间婚姻增加的原因。句意为：可能是由于今天的年轻人有更大的_，以及。Amobility 意为“流动性，移动性”，符合句意，为正确答案。motive“动机”；moral“道德，品德”；mission“使命”，均不符合题意。(13).【C13】（分数：2.00）A.lessB.ratherC.fewer D.many解析：解析：考查比较结构。根据语境可知，此处为明
36、显的比较结构程度上的比较。空格处所在的句意应为：今天的年轻人比他们的父母更少地受到偏见的束缚。因此答案为 Cfewer，与后面的 than 搭配，表示“少于”。其他选项均不符合题意。(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）A.workB.serve C.stayD.remain解析：解析：考查动词辨析。空格处处于一个关联排比结构。句意为：许多年轻人离开家乡去上大学，在军队中_。Bserve“服务，服役”，在句中表示“在军队中服兵役”，符合语境，为正确答案。其他三项均不符合题意。(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）A.butB.otherwiseC.likewiseD.or 解析：解析：考查逻辑
37、关系。根据语境可知，空格处的连接词连接三个动词形成的排比结构，三个动词平行并列，只有 Dor“或者”符合题意。(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）A.probableB.likely C.reluctantD.readily解析：解析：考查词语辨析。空格处所在句子的意思为：一旦离开了家乡和家庭，他们就更_与不同社会群体的人约会和结婚。由于本段的主题是：不同群体间的婚姻正在增加。所以此处表达的应该为“更可能”。Blikely 表示人做事时的可能性，符合句意，为正确答案。probable“可能的”，主要用于表示“某事可能会怎样”；本句主语为人，故排除；reluctant“不情愿的”，不符合句意；
38、readily“乐意地”，为副词，语法上不正确。(17).【C17】（分数：2.00）A.rare B.scarceC.searedD.relieved解析：解析：考查形容词辨析。空格处所在句子的意思为：在流动性强的美国社会，跨阶层的婚姻既不_，也不令人震惊。Arare“罕见的，稀少的”，符合句意，为正确答案。scarce“缺乏的，不足的”，多指物品、资源的不足；seared“凋零的，干枯的”；relieved“解脱的，减轻的”，均不符合题意。(18).【C18】（分数：2.00）A.inB.atC.on D.for解析：解析：考查固定搭配。on the rise 意为“上升，增长，上涨”代入
39、句中，表示：跨信仰的婚姻正在增多。其他三项均不符合题意。(19).【C19】（分数：2.00）A.raise B.obtainC.growD.unite解析：解析：考查动词辨析。空格处所填动词处于一个排比结构中“to find a place to live，maintain friendships，and_ a family”。我们据此可以推断此处大意应为“组建或者维持家庭”。Araise“养育，抚养”，raise a family 可以表达这种意思，因此答案为 A。obtain“获得，获取”；grow“生长，成长”；unite“联合”，均不符合题意。(20).【C20】（分数：2.00）A
40、.origin B.sourceC.resourceD.base解析：解析：考查名词辨析。句中括号部分内容(相同的种族和宗教)给了明显的提示，答案在 origin 和source 之间。两个词均有“本源，来源”之意，但是表示人的出身、血统时，常用 origin。故答案为Aorigin。resource“资源”，base“基础，基地”，均不符合题意。There is virtually no limit to how one can serve community interests, from spending a few hours a week with some charitable o

46、e who are just looking for something different or unusual to do should not consider【C20】_community service.（分数：40.00）(1).【C1】（分数：2.00）A.overseaB.over seaC.over seasD.overseas 解析：解析：考查词汇知识。从此空所在句的后半句“there are opportunities for overseas service”中的“overseas service”可知，此空应填“overseas”。Doverseas 可做形容词“外国
47、的，海外的”；也可做副词“在海外”。本句前一个 overseas 是副词，后一个 overseas 是形容词。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.asB.so C.thenD.that解析：解析：考查固定搭配。本句意为：_年轻人在参加全职工作前有机会参加海外志愿服务，发展中国家的_技术人员也有机会参加海外服务。“just asso”意为“正如也”。因此 Bso 为正确答案。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.quantityB.qualifyingC.qualityD.qualified 解析：解析：考查词语辨析。根据语境，此处意思应为：一技术人员有机会从事发展中国家的海外服务工作，Dqualified“有资格的，合格的”，符合句意，为正确答案。quantity 意为“量，数量”；qualifying 意为“使具有资格的”；quality 意为“质量，品质”，均不符合题意。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.partiallyB.partlyC.particularly D.passionately解析：解析：考查副词辨析。根据语境，此处意思应为：一些
