34、率,速度”;degree 意为“程度”;extent 意为“宽度,广度”;scale 意为“范围,规模”。根据句意“最新的研究不支持法官、陪审团、律师以及警察所提供的目击者证词的可信_”并结合选项,应选 B,degree of faith 意为“可信度”。A.ManifestationB.DeclarationC.PresentationD.Testimony 解析:词义辨析题。manifestation 意为“展现,示威运动”;declaration 意为“宣布,声明”;presentation 意为“介绍,陈述”;testimony 意为“证词”。句意为“法律委员会最近发表了一篇名为全面回
35、忆目击者证词的_的教育报告”,上文提到证词的可信度问题,由此判断,此处应为testimony。A.perceptions B.acceptancesC.permissionsD.receptions解析:词义辨析题。perception 意为“理解,感觉”;acceptance 意为“接受,承受”;Dermission 意为“允许”;reception 意为“接受”。结合文意“该报告指出人们普遍所持有的对思维如何工作和我们记忆程度的_往往是错的”,可知填入的词应含有“理解”之意,故选 A。其他三个词都是说接受,原文所指是人们形成的一种固定的理解,而不是被动的接受,故均不合文意。A.subjec
36、t B.liableC.incapableD.attributable解析:词义辨析题。填入空格的词要与 to 构成搭配,选项中只有 A 和 D 符合,be subject to 意为“受支配,从属于”,be attiibutable to 意为“归因于”。结合句意“然而当人的记忆力_变化时,这种变化不应该被低估”,可知 be subject to 最符合文意。A.assess B.appreciateC.calculateD.speculate解析:词义辨析题。assess 意为“评估,评定”;appreciate 意为“欣赏”;calculate 意为“计算”;speculate 意为“推
37、测”。原句意为“在法庭上证人被要求提供有关事件的供词,法官和陪审团_证词的可信度”,由此可知法官和陪审团应是评定证词的可信度,而不是欣赏、推测或计算,故选 A。A.interactivelyB.comparativelyC.horizontallyD.individually 解析:词义辨析题。interactly 意为“相互地”;comparatively 意为“比较地”;horizontally 意为“水平地”;individually 意为“个人地,单独地”。根据句意“该报告指出记忆是复杂的,所有个人的回忆的可信度都应_评定”,结合选项,可知 D 最符合文意。A.descendsB.de
38、clines C.inclinesD.degrades解析:词义辨析题。descend 意为“下降,下来”;decline 意为“衰落,下降”;incline 意为“倾向,倾斜”;degrade 意为“降级”。结合常识可知,人的记忆力应该是随着时间的推移逐渐衰落,故选decline。A.at B.inC.onD.upon解析:短语搭配题。本题较为简单,填入空格的介词与 best 构成搭配,选项中只有 at 符合文意。at ones best 意为“处于最佳状态”。A.beforeB.after C.whenD.until解析:逻辑衔接题。结合常识可知,信息只有在经过大脑编译后才能被大脑存贮、认
39、知,故本题选after。该句意为“记忆和认知的精确性在信息得到立刻编译后处于最佳状态,这种精确性起初下降很快,然后转为一个渐进的过程”。A.with B.inC.atD.on解析:短语搭配题。原句意为“耽搁的时间越长,事件发生后获得的信息就越有可能对原始记忆造成干扰”,由此可知填入的介词与 interfere 搭配,表示“干预,妨碍”,选项中只有 with 符合,故选 A。A.appropriatenessB.accuracy C.originalityD.process解析:词义辨析题。appropriateness 意为“适宜,适当”;accuracy 意为“精确性”;originalit
40、y 意为“创意”;process 意为“过程,步骤”。上文一直提到记忆力的精确程度问题,按照承接原则此处应选 B。A.consequentB.successiveC.subsequent D.preceding解析:词义辨析题。consequent 意为“作为结果的”;successive 意为“继承的,连续的”;subsequent 意为“后来的,并发的”;preceding 意为“先前的”。结合句意“论文同样指出_的采访或是媒体的报道也会对记忆造成扭曲”和常识可知,相关报道应发生在事后,故应选 C。A.distortions B.transformationsC.malfunctionsD
41、.malformations解析:词义辨析题。distortion 意为“扭曲”;transformation 意为“改革”;malfunction 意为“故障”;malformation 意为“畸形”。联系上文可知,采访和报道中的一些夸大或不实的信息会造成对事件的扭曲,故选 A。A.alteredB.transformedC.convertedD.modified 解析:词义辨析题。alter 意为“改变”;transform 意为“改革,改变”;convert 意为“转换,转变”;modify 意为“更改”。结合句意“人们的记忆是容易_”,可知此处是指人的记忆部分或片段地更改,而不是彻底地
42、改变。选项中前三个词都是指对内容的彻底改变,故不合文意,因此应选 modify。A.fade B.diminishC.lessenD.dwell解析:词义辨析题。fade 意为“褪色,消失”;diminish 意为“减少”;lessen 意为“减轻”:dwell意为“居住”。四个选项中能与记忆力搭配的只有 fade,意为“记忆力衰退”。A.misinformation B.mistreatmentC.misguidanceD.misjudgment解析:词义辨析题。misinformation 意为“误报”;mistreatment 意为“虐待”;misguidance 意为“错误的指示”;m
43、isjudgment 意为“错误判断”。文章指出,由于一些不实的报道使目击者的记忆发生更改,误以为报道就是事实,因此选 A。A.associateB.connectC.linkD.integrate 解析:词义辨析题。associate 意为“使联系”;connect 意为“连接”;link 意为“联结,联合”;integrate 意为“使成为整体”。从原文看,目击者把看到的和报道的混为一体了,才使证词不够准确,故填入的词应含有“把看成一体”之意,选 D。A.other B.ratherC.moreD.less解析:短语搭配题。四个选项均可和 than 连用:other than 意为“而不是
44、”;rather than 意为“宁愿”;more than 意为“多于,不仅仅”;less than 意为“少于”。根据文意“目击者很可能事后看到或听到相关的报道,然后把它们混为一谈,继而创造一个_亲身经历的事物”可知,该事物并不是亲自经历的,故选 other than。A.invariablyB.constantlyC.justifiablyD.verifiably 解析:词义辨析题。invariably 意为“不变地,总是”;constantly 意为“不变地,经常地”:justifibly 意为“有理由地”;verifiably 意为“能作证地,能证实地”。结合句意“即使这些记忆_是假
45、的”可知,填入的词应含有“被证明地”之意,因此选 D。三、Part Translation(总题数:5,分数:35.00)1.There are several reasons _(可以说明许多海外留学生为何归来).(分数:7.00)_正确答案:(that may account for the coming back of many overseas students)解析:考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,所译部分对 reasons 进行说明,因而可译为 that 引导的定语从句。“说明”可译为 explain 或 account for;“海外留学生”译为 overseas students。2.Once leaving his parents, John feels that _(依靠自己谋生很难).(分数:7.00)_正确答案:(it is hard to make a living on his own)解析:考查短语搭配。分析句子结构,所译部分为 that 的宾语从句,该从句中主语太长,可译为 it 作形式主语的从句,即 it is+adj+(for sb)to do sth。“谋生”译为常用短语 make a living,“依靠自己”译为 on ones own。3.We hold the belief _(世界上没有我们克服不了的困难).(分数:7.00)_
