40、ntion, allowing the couple no time to (19) liking and friendship, as well as love, (20) them exclusive parental roles.（分数：70.00）A.whatB.which C.whoD.that解析：语法结构题。分析句子结构可知，填入的词引导非限制性定语从句修饰 move，故选 B。该句意为“当今的趋势是解放妇女，这最终会巩固婚姻关系”。A.difficultyB.obstacle C.lossD.handicap解析：词义辨析题。difficulty 意为“难度”，obstacle
41、 意为“障碍”，loss 意为“损失”，handicap意为“障碍，阻碍”。结合句意“或许婚姻和睦的最大_是夫妻间通常看到对方的_”可知，此处表达的是影响夫妻和睦的不利因素，故应选 obstacle。A.amount B.numberC.mountD.account解析：词义辨析题。amount 意为“数量，总计”，侧重总数、总量；number 意为“数字，数量”，通常与确定的数字连用；mount 意为“山”；account 意为“计算，账目”。结合句意(见第 2 题解析)和下文提到的 the strain of daily，year-long cohabitation“长久相处所带来的紧张状
42、态”，可知此处表示的是夫妻看到对方多少的问题，故选 amount。A.triedB.examinedC.tastedD.tested 解析：词义辨析题。try 意为“尝试”；examine 意为“考试，检查”，多指上级对下级的检查；taste意为“品尝”；test 意为“测试，检验”。结合文意“通常意义上说，夫妻间的感情不是通过长久相处所带来的紧张状态来_的”，在该空中应该填入的是有“测试，衡量”之意的词，故 test 最符合文意。A.separate B.sameC.variousD.own解析：篇章逻辑题。此题的考点在 as well as“同样，也”，它指出的是一个问题的两个方面，因此
43、as well as 前部分的意思应与后部分的 shared ones“共同的爱好”相对应，即应该有各自的爱好。选项中various 虽然也表示“不同的”，但强调的是多样性而非个性，故只能选 separate“个别的，各自的”。A.basicallyB.primarilyC.mutually D.barely解析：词义辨析题。basically 意为“基本上，主要地”，primarily 意为“首先，起初”，mutually 意为“互相地”，barely 意为“仅仅，刚刚”。上文提到夫妻双方除了应有各自的兴趣外，还应有共同的兴趣，即两人相互的，故选 C。A.toB.for C.inD.at解析
44、：短语搭配题。exert oneself 意为“努力，尽力”，其后可接动词不定式 to do sth.也可接 for sth./sb.，表示为某事/某人尽力做某事，故选 B。原句意为“夫妻双方可能会尽力地为客人服务：逗大家开心或是与他们富有激情地讨论问题、表达看法，当客人离开之后他们就会陷入无聊、筋疲力尽的_中”。A.debateB.restC.silence D.sleep解析：篇章逻辑题。分析句子结构，该句中有两个破折号：第一个破折号进行解释说明，第二个破折号后的内容与前文客人在时的 amusing，discussing with passion 对比，结合空格前的形容词 dull 可知选
45、silence 最合文意。A.deficientB.effectiveC.efficientD.sufficient 解析：词义辨析题。deficient 意为“缺乏的，不足的”，effective 意为“有效的”，efficient 意为“有效率的，生效的”，sufficient 意为“充分的，足够的”。结合句意“就像在所有关系中一样，夫妻双方应该尽量吸引对方，花_时间分享共同的活动来增进双方共同的爱好”和下文提到的 But at the same time they must spend enough time.可知，此处同样指“足够的时间”，故选 D。A.preserve B.searc
46、hC.seekD.deserve解析：习惯搭配题。preserve 意为“保护，保持”，search 意为“搜寻，探求”，seek 意为“寻觅，追求”，deserve 意为“应受，值得”。结合句意“同时他们需要花足够的时间在各自的兴趣上以_和发展各自的个性特点，进而使他们的关系保持_”，可知填入的词与 develop 在语义上并列，选项中能与 personalities 搭配的只有 preserve，意为“保持个性”。A.permanentB.fresh C.closeD.relaxed解析：词义辨析题。permanent 意为“永久的，持久的”，fresh 意为“新鲜的”，close 意为“
47、亲密的”，relaxed 意为“轻松的”。根据常理推断，夫妻之间保持各自的特性会给彼此新鲜的感觉，故选 B。A.purelyB.especiallyC.merelyD.highly 解析：词义辨析题。purely 意为“纯粹地，完全地”，especially 意为“尤其，特别”，merely 意为“仅仅，只不过”，hihgly 意为“高地，非常地”。该段主要就 intelligent working women 和下文中的 highly intelligent working men 对家的不同理解进行阐述，根据同词复现可知本题应选 D。A.responsibilitiesB.obligati
48、ons C.dutiesD.privileges解析：词义辨析题。responsibility 意为“责任，职责”，obligation 意为“义务，职责”，duty 意为“职责，职务”，privilege 意为“特权”。原句意为“对于很多高级职业女性来说，家庭代表的是繁琐的_，因为丈夫仅仅_她的工作但自己并不_家务”，由此可知职业女性并非发自内心地想做家务，家务对她们来说是不得不承担的义务，故选 B。A.tolerates B.encouragesC.endowsD.provides解析：词义辨析题。tolerate 意为“忍受，容忍”，encourage 意为“鼓励”，endow 意为“捐
49、赠，赋予”，provide 意为“提供”。根据下文“对于许多高级职业男性来说，家庭代表的是无聊和_，因为妻子不能鼓起_从一个过度依赖的人转变为一个非常独立的人”可知，丈夫对女性工作的态度并非提倡，而是忍受，故选 A。A.attendB.takeC.participate D.enroll解析：词义辨析题。attend 意为“参加，出席”时是及物动词，take 和 in 搭配时意为“接受，吸收，欺骗”，poarticipate in 意为“参与，参加”，enrou in 意为“登记，注册”。结合句意(见第 13 题解析)可知选 C。A.praisesB.complaints C.complimentsD.quarrels解析：词义辨析题。praise 意为“表扬”，complaint 意为“诉苦，抱怨”，compliment 意为“称赞，恭维”，quarrel 意为“吵架，争论”。由并列连词 and 可知填入的词与 dullness 在词性和意思上应该是并列的，结合句意和常识可知 complaint 最符合文意。A.courage B.moneyC.timeD.property解析：词义辨析题。根据句意(见第 1
