28、强调用语言、绘画等艺术形式来展现或刻画)”，paint“用颜料等画，描绘，逼真地描述”，均与题意不符，故排除。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.distinctive B.specialC.distinguishedD.prominent解析：解析：本题考查形容词辨析及上下文语义。根据上下文，此处句意为“我们特别关注一些比较_特性”。因此 Adistinctive“与众不同的，有特色的”符合题意，为正确答案。special“特别的，特殊的，专用的”，distinguished“卓越的，杰出的”，prominent“卓越的，显著的”，均与题意不符，故排除。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A
29、.characterB.featureC.essence D.manner解析：解析：本题考查名词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为“这些特征构成了一个人的_”。空格所在的定语从句修饰先行词 trait(特性)，也就是一个人最本质的东西。所以正确答案是 Cessence“本质；精髓”，指一类事物固有的、不会改变的性质。character“性格”，feature“特征”，manner“方式”，均与题意不符，故排除。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.collectivelyB.consistently C.remarkablyD.annually解析：解析：本题考查副词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为“
30、某一个人可能特别焦虑，另一个人_很可靠，而又一个却是生龙活虎”。因此 Bconsistently“一贯地，始终如一地”符合题意，为正确答案。collectively“全体地，共同地”，remarkably“非常，显著地，引人注目地”，annually“一年一次地，每年”，代入原文均说不通，故排除。(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.by B.againstC.fromD.with解析：解析：本题考查固定搭配。此处句意为“根据他们的关键个性来辨别他们”。四个介词中可以和identify 搭配的只有 by 和 with。identifyby意为“根据来辨别”，identifywith意为“认为是
31、一致的；同情，理解”。因此 Aby 符合句意，为正确答案。(6).【C6】（分数：2.00）A.if B.whenC.whyD.that解析：解析：本题考查语法结构及上下文语义。此处句意为“本和艾伦通过问大学生们是一贯友好还是只是偶尔友好”。空格处缺一个连词或引导词，引出的从句作 ask 的间接宾语，所以，可以首先排除that；when 引导时间状语从句，why 引导原因状语从句，都不符合句意。因此，只有 Aif“(用于间接疑问句时意为)是否”符合题意，为正确答案。(7).【C7】（分数：2.00）A.askedB.askC.asking D.asks解析：解析：本题考查语法结构。联系上下文可
32、知 tested this idea by first askingand then_中 and 连接两个并列结构，其中，first 与 then 相对，空格处与 asking 相对，因此正确答案是 Casking。(8).【C8】（分数：2.00）A.how much B.how oftenC.how wellD.how long解析：解析：本题考查语法结构及上下文语义。后面的连词 and 连接并列结构，根据下文提示 how quickly they_a conversation 可以判断出空格所在部分的大意应该是“他们在小团体里面说话的多少”。所以正确答案是 Ahow much。how o
33、ften“多久”表频率，how well“多好”，how long“多长”，均与题意不符，故排除。(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）A.covered upB.started up C.brought upD.set up解析：解析：本题考查短语辨析。此处句意为“他们与陌生人_一段对话有多快”。根据句意，只有Bstarted up“使开始，启动；引起”符合题意，为正确答案。cover up“盖住，盖好；包庇”，bring up“提出，引出”，set up“建立，成立，提出”，均与题意不符，故排除。(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）A.friendly B.talkativeC.easy-g
34、oingD.passionate解析：解析：本题考查形容词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为“那些认为自己一直友好的大学生确实比更有可能在两种条件下都_”，根据上文提示 who considered themselves consistently friendly were indeed可以直接选出正确答案 Afriendly。talkative“健谈的”，easy-going“随和的”，passionate“热情的”，均与题意不符，故排除。(11).【C11】（分数：2.00）A.rankedB.scoredC.rated D.evaluated解析：解析：本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为
35、“那些认为自己一直友好的大学生确实比那些_自己只是偶尔友好的大学生，更有可能在两种条件下都友好”，根据上文 considered 和平行结构的提示，可知正确答案为 Crated“认为是”。rank“排列；位列”，score“给打分”，evaluate“评价”，均与题意不符，故排除。(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）A.Beyond B.SoC.ExceptD.After解析：解析：本题考查逻辑关系。此处句意为“_，一直友好的大学生的家长和同龄人对其是否友好的评价，也与大学生的自我评价非常相似”。根据上下文可知，本句和前一句显然是递进关系。所以，正确答案是 ABeyond。Beyond th
36、at 此处意为“除此之外”。So“因此”，Except“把除外”，After“在之后”，均与题意不符，故排除。(13).【C13】（分数：2.00）A.asB.to C.likeD.with解析：解析：本题考查固定搭配。此处句意为“除此之外，一直友好的大学生的家长和同龄人对其是否友好的评价，也与大学生的自我评价非常相似”。be similar to 是固定搭配，意为“与相似，类似于”。因此 Bto 为正确答案。(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）A.indicatedB.predicted C.propelledD.reflected解析：解析：本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。根据下文 acc
37、urately how they would act 的提示，可知Bpredicted“预知(强调通过某一事实存在可以预知、得出)”符合题意，为正确答案。indicate“指出，象征，预示(强调暗示、表明)”，propel“推进，驱使”，reflect“表明(作为某人行动的结果显示出)”，均与题意不符，故排除。(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）A.interpretB.understandC.knowD.judge 解析：解析：本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。该句里面 and 连接两个并列结构 we can_ourselves accurately and that others can r
38、ate us very well 根据下文 rate 的提示，可以直接选出正确答案为Djudge“评价，评定”。interpret“解释；理解”，understand“理解”，know“知道”，均与题意不符，故排除。(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）A.butB.orC.that D.and解析：解析：本题考查逻辑关系。此处意为“其他人则根据我们身上表现出来的特性对我们做出很好的评价”。空格后是动词原形。根据句意，正确答案是 Cthat。that 是引导词，在定语从句中作主语。but表示转折，or 表示选择或并列，and 表示并列，均与题意不符，故排除。(17).【C17】（分数：2.00
39、）A.match B.meetC.satisfyD.identify解析：解析：本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为“我们必须要求情形与的标志特性一致”，空格处单词需与 with 搭配。根据句意，正确答案是 Amatch“使一致，使协调”, match with 意为“使相配”。meet“满足，实现”, satisfy“满足，使满意”，identify“识别，鉴别，把和看成一样”，均与题意不符，故排除。(18).【C18】（分数：2.00）A.neededB.involved C.relatedD.correlated解析：解析：本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。此处句意为“我们必须要求情形与
40、_者的标志特性一致”，很明显应该是受测试的人，the person involved 符合题意，因此选 Binvolved。involve 意为“有关的”，强调所包含的，身在其中的。needde“需要的”，related“相关的，有联系的”，correlated“有相互关联的”，均与题意不符，故排除。(19).【C19】（分数：2.00）A.notB.otherC.another D.two解析：解析：本题考查固定搭配。此处句意为“那些明显是这种或那种性格的人”，one type or another 为固定搭配，意为“这种或那种类型”，故 Canother 符合题意，为正确答案。(20).【
41、C20】（分数：2.00）A.orB.while C.sinceD.however解析：解析：本题考查逻辑关系及上下文语义。很明显，空格前谈的是“不是这种个性就是那种个性的人们的情况”，空格后谈的是“那些性格特征不太容易归类的人们的情况”，前后显然是对比关系。所以，正确答案是 B。while。其他均与题意不符。The Earths daily clock, measured in a single revolution, is twenty-four hours. The human clock, 【C1】_, is actually about twenty-five hours. That

47、ect.（分数：40.00）(1).【C1】（分数：2.00）A.however B.otherwiseC.likewiseD.therefore解析：解析：本题考查逻辑关系。此处句意为“以一次单独的旋转来测量，地球每天的时钟是 24 小时。_，人类的时钟实际大约是 25 小时。”根据上下文的意思以及提示词 actually，可以判断出本句与上句是转折关系。所以，正确答案是 Ahowever。otherwise“否则，不然”，likewise“照样，而且”，therefore“总之，因此”，均不符合题意。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.theB.what C.becauseD.many解析：解析：本题考查语法知识。句子的谓语是 is，空格处缺的必然是一个连词或关系词。Bwhat 是关系代词，在从句中作表语，符合题意。what 引导的这个表语从句比较复杂：who study sleep 是定语从句，修饰 scientists；定语从句 who live for several weeksday
