For now, it is more【C20】_to treat fat patients than to try to make them slim.(分数:40.00)(1).【C1】(分数:2.00)A.soB.orC.thusD.and 解析:解析:本题考查语法结构。此处的结构是“祈使句+andthen+含有一般将来时态或带有情态动词的陈述句”。这种句型的祈使句表示一种条件或假设陈述句表示结果
31、。(祈使句部分可用 if 引导的条件状语从句,此时主句去掉 andthen。)所以 Dand 为正确答案,且句意为“找个办法和肥胖对抗的话,说不定就会大赚一笔”。or 的干扰性较大,但是在“祈使句+or+简单句”的结构中,or 后的简单句通常是不理想的结果,故排除此项。(2).【C2】(分数:2.00)A.chanceB.progressC.riskD.step 解析:解析:本题考查名词辨析。此处的句意为“2013 年 2 月 22 日,Vivus 制药公司朝着这个目标前进了一小步”。take a step“迈出一步,采取措施”符合题意,故 Dstep 为正确答案。take a chance“
32、冒险,碰运气”,take a risk“冒危险,冒风险”,根据句意排除 A、C 项。progress 是不可数名词,且常用固定搭配为 make progress“取得进步”,故排除 B 项。(3).【C3】(分数:2.00)A.Above allB.After allC.However D.Therefore解析:解析:本题考查逻辑关系。根据此空前一句中的 recommended 和后一句的 approval may not come可知,前后显然为转折关系,故 CHowever“但是,然而”为正确答案。Above all“首先,最重要的是”表递进,After all“毕竟,终究”表让步,Th
33、erefore“因此,所以”表目的,三项均不符合本题的逻辑关系,故排除。(4).【C4】(分数:2.00)A.turns B.modifiesC.altersD.converts解析:解析:本题考查动词辨析及固定搭配。根据文章和选项,可知此处意为“公告主要是提醒人们,这是一场点肥成金的斗争”,turn sbsthinto sth意为“使(从)变成”,故 Aturns 指外形、颜色、气味、性质等方面的变化,为正确答案。modify 强调起限定作用的变化或变更,常含“缓和、降调”的意味;alter 常指轻微的改变,强调基本上保持原物、原状的情况下所进行的部分改变;convert 指进行全部或局部改
34、变以适应新的功能或用途,三项均不符合题意,故排除。(5).【C5】(分数:2.00)A.interested inB.good at C.soft onD.addicted to解析:解析:本题考查短语辨析。此处句意为“制药和医疗器械公司非常_解决肥胖带来的问题但是他们无法帮助消费者减轻体重”,be good at“擅长”,符合题意,故 Bgood at 为正确答案。be sott on“在方面表现软弱”,根据 However 表示的前后转折关系,排除 C 项。be interested in“对感兴趣”,be addicted to“对上瘾,感兴趣”,均不能准确表达题意,故排除。(6).【C
35、6】(分数:2.00)A.reduceB.lose C.decreaseD.cut解析:解析:本题考查动词辨析及固定搭配。根据选项可知,此处想表达的句意为“但是他们无法帮助消费者减轻体重”,lose weight“减轻体重,减肥”是固定搭配,准确地表达了题意,故 Blose 为正确答案。其他三项分别表示“减少、减小、削减”,但不符合固定搭配。减肥的常用表达为 lose weightgo on a diet,第一个是泛指,第二个是指节食减肥。(7).【C7】(分数:2.00)A.laterB.beforeC.enoughD.earlier 解析:解析:本题考查副词辨析。此处句意为“用束带绕住患者
36、胃的上部,这样患者会在吃饭时_有腹饱感”,根据逻辑推断,可知此处应选 earlier“提早,早期”,只有这样才能达到减轻患者体重的目的,故 D 项为正确答案。later“较晚的,后来”,根据句意很容易排除;before 在此处的用法不正确;enough“足够的,充足的”,干扰性较大,但 D 项表意更准确到位。(8).【C8】(分数:2.00)A.increasingB.risingC.constrainingD.shrinking 解析:解析:本题考查动词辨析。由 but 可知,此句的前后两部分为转折关系,前一部分讲的是“Allergan 公司在全球胃部束带市场占有率达 70”,则后一部分必然
37、是消极、负面的信息,故排除increasing 和 rising。shrink 在此处用作不及物动词,指“收缩,退缩,畏缩”,符合句意“但是如今销量却有所收缩”,故 Dshrinking 为正确答案。constraining“限制,约束”是及物动词,需接宾语,故排除。(9).【C9】(分数:2.00)A.had B.madeC.takenD.found解析:解析:本题考查语法知识。英语语法中,have+sth(宾语)+过去分词(宾语补足语)意为“让叫使请别人做某事”。宾语 sth后面用过去分词作宾语补足语,说明 sth与过去分词表示的动作之间是被动关系。此处应填 have 的过去分词,故 Ah
38、ad 为正确答案,句意为“有些病人甚至让医生取下束带”。其他三项均不符合文意,故排除。(10).【C10】(分数:2.00)A.incompetentB.inefficientC.insufficientD.ineffective 解析:解析:本题考查形容词辨析。根据 slipped or proved_可知,此处填的形容词应与动词slipped“滑,滑脱”表达的意思一致。ineffective“无效的,没有效果的;(指人)工作效率低的”,符合文意,故 Dineffective 为正确答案。incompetent“不合格的,不胜任的”,inefficient“效率低的,效率差的;(指人)不能胜
39、任的,无能的”,insufficient“不足的,不够的”,均不符合题意,故排除。(11).【C11】(分数:2.00)A.targetsB.accessesC.merits D.usage解析:解析:本题考查名词辨析。文章第二段后半部分谈到 Allergan 公司胃部束带的销量在收缩,一方面由于它比较昂贵,另一方面由于束带没有效果。这些都是 Allergan 公司不利的地方或其缺点,故此处表达的意思为“(Allergan 公司首席执行官)目前试图让保险公司也看到胃部束带的优点”。故Cmerits“优点,价值”为正确答案。target“对象,目标”;access“接近,入口”;usage“使用
40、”,是不可数名词,三项均不符合题意,故排除。(12).【C12】(分数:2.00)A.opportunitiesB.troubles C.advantagesD.conditions解析:解析:本题考查名词辨析及固定搭配。文章第二段首句提到“但是它们(医疗器械公司和制药公司)无法帮助消费者减轻体重”,接着整段都在谈一家医疗器械公司以及遇到的麻烦;第三段首句使用了比较级,快速浏览下文可知,第三段讲制药公司遇到的麻烦。所以,此处应选 Btroubles“麻烦,烦恼,故障”。opportunity“机会”,advantage“有利条件,有利因素”,condition“条件”,均不符合题意,故排除。(
41、13).【C13】(分数:2.00)A.prescription B.descriptionC.transcriptionD.ascription解析:解析:本题考查名词辨析。此处考查的医学常识,句意为“从美国食品药物管理局批准减肥药为处方药到如今已经过了十三年”,故 Aprescription“医药方,处方;处方药”为正确答案。其他三项都有相同的名词后缀,但 description“描写,叙述”,transcription 作为可数名词指“抄写,抄本”,ascription“归属,归因”,是不可数名词,故此三项均不符合题意。(14).【C14】(分数:2.00)A.famousB.noted
42、C.well-knownD.notorious 解析:解析:本题考查形容词辨析。由空格后修饰的 side-effects“副作用”可知。此处填的形容词应该是贬义的,故 Dnotorious“臭名昭著的,臭名远扬的,声名狼藉的”为正确答案,且句意为“瑞士罗氏制药公司的 Xenical 臭名昭著,该药会引发副作用”。famous“著名的,出名的”,noted“闻名的,著名的”,well-known“出名的,众所周知的”,利用做完形填空的“三一原则”,此三项均表示褒义,只有 D 项表示贬义,故 D 项正确。(15).【C15】(分数:2.00)A.affairsB.concerns C.matter
43、sD.worries解析:解析:本题考查名词辨析。根据空格后的 for 和此句的句意“美国食品药物管理局于 2010 年拒绝批准 Vivus 公司的 Qnexa,因为_该药对孕妇的安全造成伤害和该药会加快患者的心率”可知,此处应该填表示“担心,忧虑”的单词,故 Bconcerns 为正确答案,此处是可数名词,指后面的两件“担心、忧虑的事情”。affair“事情”;matter“事件”;worry 作为可数名词指“使人担心(或发愁)的问题,烦心事”,其后通常接 about,故三项均排除。(16).【C16】(分数:2.00)A.repelB.remarkC.reject D.require解析:
44、解析:本题考查动词辨析。第四段首句承上启下,第三段最后一句谈到“2013 年 Virus 公司新的数据显然让管理局的咨询委员会满意”,而第四段首句的 But 表明了转折关系,故此处句意应为“但是该局还是可能拒绝批准该药”,Creject“拒绝,抛弃,扔掉”为正确答案。repel“击退,使厌恶”,remark“评论,察觉”,require“要求,需要”,均不符合文意,故排除。(17).【C17】(分数:2.00)A.Even if B.As long asC.If onlyD.So long as解析:解析:本题考查逻辑关系。此处句意为“_Qnexa 获得批准,患者会不会买账仍不明了”,由空格后
45、的 approved“批准”和空格后的 unclear“不明白的,不清楚的”可知,AEven if“即使,纵然”为正确答案,表示一种假设或推断,引导让步状语从句。As long as“只要,既然”,If only“只要,但愿”,So long as“只要”,三项均缺少让步的含义,故排除。(18).【C18】(分数:2.00)A.violatesB.separatesC.combines D.imitates解析:解析:本题考查动词辨析。此部分句意为“Qnexa_了两种市面上已有的药物。这两种药物都是非专利药”,结合上下文以及四个选项可知,Ccombines“(使)结合,(使)组合”准确表达了文
46、意,为正确答案。violate“违反,妨碍”,separate“分开,分离”,imitate“模仿,效仿,仿造”,均不符合文意,故排除。(19).【C19】(分数:2.00)A.recommendB.prescribe C.advocateD.suggest解析:解析:本题考查动词辨析。此处考查的是医学用语,根据句意“这说明医生可能会给患者_已有的药而不选择 Qnexa,而后者更贵”可知,此处表达的意思为“医生开药”,故Bprescribe“开(药,处方)”为正确答案。recommend“推荐,劝告”,advocate“提倡,倡议”,suggest“建议,提议,暗示”,均不符合文意,故排除。(
47、20).【C20】(分数:2.00)A.importantB.quickC.profitable D.helpful解析:解析:本题考查形容词辨析。根据文章首句“肥胖症对某些人来说是传染病,对别的一些人来说则是机遇”和第二段前两句“医疗器械公司和制药公司非常善于解决肥胖带来的问题,但是它们无法帮助消费者减轻体重”可知,医疗器械公司和制药公司利用这一机遇,通过治疗肥胖患者来获利。故Cprofitable“有利可图的,可赚钱的”为正确答案。important“重要的”,quick“迅速的”,helpful“有益的,给予帮助的”,均不符合文意,故排除。The countrys inadequate mental health system gets the most attention after instances of mass violence that the nation has seen repeatedly over the past few months. Not all who【C1】_these sorts of cruelties are mentally ill, but【C2】_have been. After each, the national discussion quickly, but tempora
