21、(分数:70.00)A.declinesB.decreasesC.dirnjnishesD.reduces 解析:解析 D)reduces(降低)指通过人为的方法在数量、规模、范围等方面减少,也可以指在地位、重要性方面降低等级。the shot 明显是治疗流感的人为方法,故答案应为:reduces。A.ifB.but C.whileD.so解析:解析 本分句中的 there 指的是前一分句中的 90%。本分句意思是,你可以将得流感的机会减少的更多,不一定非要停留在 90%。前后两个分句之间存在转折关系,故空格处应为 but。A.significantly B.deliberatelyC.acc
22、ordinglyD.reversely解析:解析 分析本句句意可知,本句需要一个程度副词,起到强调说明 improve 的作用,significantIy(相当地,非常大地)为程度副词,符合要求。A.onB.withC.by D.at解析:解析 f01lowing a few simple rules 很明显是 staying health),的方法,故 following a few simple rules 应在句中做方式状语,备选项中的介词只有 by 符合要求。A.commonB.usualC.average D.normal解析:解析 分析本句句意可知,本句强调的是平均来讲成年人每年都
23、会得 13 次呼吸道疾病,average(平均的,通常的)侧重于平均意义上的一般,符合句子要求,故为答案。A.nearly B.generallyC.commonlyD.basically解析:解析 根据常识可知,引起 respiratory illness 原因有很多种,并不一定全是由 viruses 引起的,所以应选用程度副词 nearly(将近)。A.appearingB.occurring C.arrivingD.showing解析:解析 空格前 them 指代 respiratory illness。冬季是 respiratory illness 的常发季节,故空格处应含有“发生,产
24、生”之意,备选项中含有此意的只有 Occurring(发生)。A.WOrksB.makesC.tends D.turns解析:解析 tend to 意为“有的倾向”,用在句中表明 cold weather 通常会使不好的习惯产生,故答案为 tends。A.itB.which C.whatD.they解析:解析 分析句意可知,空格处所在的分句明显修饰其前整句话,故其应该是一个能引导非限制性定语从句的关联词,故答案为 which。A.probableB.easyC.likelyD.liable 解析:解析 本句中的 to 为介词,“be liable to”意为“易患,易受影 响”,符合本句语法及
25、句意要求,故答案为 liable。A.exercisesB.shotsC.virusesD.colds 解析:解析 由下句中相继出现的 cold,nu 等可知,空格处应是二者的原词复现或同义复现,备选项中的 colds(伤风,感冒)符合要求,故为答案。A.If B.UnlessC.AlthoughD.While解析:解析 本题的分析应该先确定第 75 题的答案。分析该题四个选项可知,B) avoid(避免)用在句中表明你应该避免与携带感冒病毒的人接触,符合句意,故为该题答案。明确了这一点,就不难确定73、74 题的答案。既然要避免与可能会让你感冒的人接触,那么就表明你不想 suffered a
26、nother cold,故 74 题的空格处应表达“否定”含义,故该题 答案为 A)never。C)seldom(不常有,很少)和 D)hardly(几乎不)在否定程度上不符合本句要求。明确了本句中 74、75 题的答案, 就可以知道 73 题空格处应是能引导条件状语从句的连接词,故 73 题 答案为 If。A.never B.everC.seldomD.hardly解析:解析 参见第 73 题解析。A.expelB.avoid C.depriveD.relieve解析:解析 参见第 73 题解析。A.doneB.saidC.tastedD.touched 解析:解析 本段最后一句中的 ski
27、n,furniture and the like 提示,respiratory viruses 也可以通过携带感冒病毒的人接触过的 skin,fuI-niture and the like 传播,touched(接触)用在句中能使句子表达“应避免接触携带感冒病毒的人所接触过的所有东西”之意,符合句子逻辑,故为答案。A.whoseB.that C.whatD.who解析:解析 分析句子结构可知,空格处应能引导定语从句,修饰 those,故答案 为 that。A.comeB.moveC.survive D.appear解析:解析 句中的状语 for hours 提示,空格处应是延续性动词,备选项中
28、只有 C)survive(生存)为延续性动词,其他三个都为终止性动词,故答案为 survive。A.illB.afraidC.ready D.sorry解析:解析 空格处应能与不定式短语搭配使用,故答案为 ready(有准备的)。A.what B.whenC.howD.why解析:解析 空格处既要在主句中做 do 的宾语,又要做从句中 do 的宾语,故答案为 what。A.sourceB.spread C.developmentD.deterioration解析:解析 通常来讲 good hand washing 能够防止 illness 和 respiratory infections 的蔓
29、延,故答案为 spread(传播,蔓延)。二、Exercise 2(总题数:1,分数:70.00)Most worthwhile careers require some kind of specialized trainingIdeally, therefore, the choice of an (62) should be made even before choice of a curriculum in high schoolActually, (63) , most people make several job choices during their working lives

31、(68) benefit of help from a competent vocational (69) or psychologistKnowing (70) about the occupational world, or themselves for that matter, they choose their lifework on a hit- or-miss (71) Some drift fromjob to jobOthers (72) to work in which they are unhappy and for which they are not fittedOne
32、 common mistake is choosing an occupation for its real or (73) prestige Too many high-school students-or their parents for themchoose the professional field, (74) both the relatively small proportion of workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal (75) The imagined or r
33、eal prestige of a profession or a“White collar“job is (76) good reason for choosing it as lifes work (77) , these occupations are not always well paidSince a large proportion of jobs are in mechanical and manual work, the (78) of young people should give serious (79) to these fields(80) making an oc

35、mands as well as its rewards(分数:70.00)A.identificationB.entertainmentC.accommodationD.occupation 解析:解析 整篇文章都与工作的选择有关。本段第一句指出,大多数值得做的 careers 都需要specialized training,本句承接上句而来,故空格处应是 careers 的同义复现,可知答案为occupation(职业)。A.however B.thereforeC.thoughD.thereby解析:解析 上文指出,人们应该在选择中学课程之前就选择好自己的职业,而本句却说大多数人在他们的
36、职业生涯中进行了多次工作选择,这明显与上文的要求相悖,故空格处应是转折连词,即答案为however。A.entirelyB.mainlyC.partly D.his解析:解析 并列连词 and 后的 partly 提示,economic and industrial changes 也应是 “most people make several job choices”的部分原因,故答案为 partIy。A.minimizeB.approveC.overpassD.improve 解析:解析 根据常识可知,人们“make several job choices”很明显是为了对自己的 positio
37、n 有益,故空格处用在句中应能表示 theii。position 发生了好的变化,选项中的符合要求的为 improve。A.sinceB.therefore C.furthermoreD.forever解析:解析 上句指出 the“one perfect job”并不存在,本句是基于这一事实对年轻人提出的建议,也可以说是 The“one perfect job” does not exist 是 “Young people should”的原因,前后两个句子存在因果关系,故空格处应是表因果关系的副词,故答案为 therefore。since 通常引导表因果关系的句子,故不选。A.makeB.f
38、it C.takeD.leave解析:解析 没有 make sbfor sth的用法,故可首先将 A)make 排除。而 C) take 和 D)leave 虽然都可以与 for 构成合理搭配,但无法与 for 的宾语“a field of work”构成合理的逻辑关系,故也可排除。答案只能 为 fit。fit sb.for sth意为“使适合”。A.toB.forC.without D.with解析:解析 本句句首的 Unfortunately 提示,“benefit of”应表达否定或消极含义,选项中的否定词只有 without,故为答案。A.counselor B.counselC.co
39、nductorD.consultancy解析:解析 vocational counselor 为惯用搭配,意为“职业顾问”,故答案为 counselor。A.little B.fewC.muchD.a lot解析:解析 通过本段第一句可知,许多年轻人在没有帮助的情况下作出职业选择,这样的情况势必会造成他们对 the occupational world 了解很少,可知空格处应为否定词,故可将答案限定在 A)little 和 B)few 中。 本句明显需要一个副词,修饰 Knowing,故答案应为 little。A.chanceB.basis C.purposeD.opportunity解析:解
40、析 结合句子大意以及四个选项可知,既符合本句句意,又符合语法的为 basis。on abasis意为“在基础上”。句中的 hit-or-miss 意为 “无目的,无计划的”。A.applyB.appealC.stick D.turn解析:解析 四个选项都可以与 to 构成合理搭配,但 apply 通常用于 apply sth.to sth.结构中;appeal to 意为“呼吁,要求,有影响力”,明显不符合本句句意;turn to 意为“转向,变成,求助于”也明显不符合句意。答案只能为 stick。stick to 意为“坚持”,符合句意。A.imaginableB.imaginaryC.im
41、aginingD.imagined 解析:解析 本段第三句中的“The imagined or real prestige”提示,空格处应是 imagined 的原词复现,故答案为 imagined。A.concerningB.followingC.consideringD.disregarding 解析:解析 “the relativeb,small proportion”和“the extremely high”都是 the professional field 的弊端,但是还是有太多的 high-school students 或 their parents 选择它。他们选择 the p
42、rofessional field 很明显只考虑到了它的优点,而忽略了它的弊端。可知空格处应表达消极含义,故答案 为 disregarding。A.preferencesB.requirements C.tendenciesD.ambitions解析:解析 将四个选项依次带入原文可知,最符合句意的为 requirements。A.aB.anyC.no D.the解析:解析 本段第一句已经指出,为了真实或虚无的声望而选择某种职业是 one common mistake,所以本句要表达的应是:为了虚无或真实的声望而选择某种职业作为终生事业绝不会是 good reason,即空格处应是否定 词,以使
43、 good reason 表达否定含义,故答案为 no。A.ThereforeB.HoweverC.NeverthelessD.Moreover 解析:解析 结合上一句可知,these occupations are not alwrays well paid 是那些有实际或虚无声望的 profession 或 a“White-collar”job 的另一个缺点。 前后两个句子存在并列关系,可知空格处应是表并列关系的副词,故答案为 MoreoveroA.majority B.massC.minorityD.multitude解析:解析 C)minority 明显不符合本句语境,可首先排除。A)
44、majority、B)mass 和 D)multitude 都表示“大量,大多”。但 mass 和 multitude 都只是“数量多”,而 majority 则表示“数量最多”,程度比mass 和 multitude 的要深,能够强调说明“young people 应该”。故答案 为 majority。A.proposalB.suggestionC.consideration D.appraisal解析:解析 D)appraisal 通常与 of 搭配使用,可首先排除。A)proposal 和 B) suggestion 虽然可以用于“give proposal to”或“give sugg
45、estion to”结构中,但 to 后通常接表示“人”的名词做宾语,故可将二者 排除。本题答案为 consideration。“give consideration to”意为“对进行考虑”。A.AfterB.WhenC.Before D.While解析:解析 本句为作者对人们提出的建议,即在作出职业选择,人们应该明确自己想要从生活中得到什么以及为了达到目标,他们打算付出多少的努力。很明显,“have a general idea of what”应该在 making an occupational choice 之前就准备好的,故答案应为 Before。A.turnsB.partsC.choicesD.risks 解析:解析 “take risks”为惯用搭配,意为“冒险”,故答案为 risks。
