24、ess, or because it is connected with their religious 20 .（分数：40.00）A.besidesB.exceptC.except forD.in addition解析：解析 语义衔接和介词辨析题。该句话的意思是“除了人类，大自然赋予了各种动物遮盖物，比如毛皮、羽毛、毛发、厚厚的兽皮等”。besides表示“除之外还有”；in addition单独使用，表示“此外”，如果后面接宾语，用法为in addition to，也表示“除此之外还有”；except for表不“要不是，若无”，指出前面所述事实的不足之处；except表示“把某人或某物
25、排除在外”，表示不包括，符合语意。A.covetingB.coverC.skinD.mask解析：解析 名词辨析题。covering是“遮盖物”；cover是“罩子，套子，封面”；skin是“皮肤”，mask是“面具”。第一题已经解释过该句的意思，此处指“遮盖物”，故用covering，而且下一句再次提到了该词。A.skinB.hideC.hairD.fur解析：解析 名词辨析题。人不同于动物，没有毛皮羽毛等，人有的只是皮肤，故用skin一词。A.travelledB.strodeC.walkedD.wandered解析：解析 动词辨析题。travel是“旅行”；strode是stride的过
26、去式，表示“大踏步地走”；walk是“步行，行走”；wander是“漫游、闲逛”，后面接介词about。所以D为正确答案。A.butB.thereforeC.thoughD.as解析：解析 逻辑关系题。该句的意思是“人类只有薄薄的一层皮肤，上千年来人类就这样没有任何遮盖物的漫游在这世上，只不过早期的人比现代的人多点皮毛而已”。此处需要填一个表示让步关系的词，四个选项中只有though符合题意。A.oldB.ancientC.newD.modern解析：解析 语义衔接题。通过句子里的the earliest men和than，我们可以判断该句在拿最早的人类和现代的人，所以四个选项中只有moder
27、n符合题意。A.afterB.whenC.beforeD.then解析：解析 逻辑关系题。四个选项都可以和only连接，但根据题意，只有when符合题意，表示“只有当人们开始思考穿衣服的目的时才意识到穿衣还有很多其他的原因，这些原因与气候或取暖的需求是无关的”。only after表示“只有在之后”；only before表示“只有在之前”，这句话没有明显的先后关系；only then表示“只有在那时”，不符合此处的意思。A.thatB.becauseC.forD.as解析：解析 语法结构题。此处考查的是定语从句，根据上下文，所填的词必须是个关系代词，引导定语从句，在从句中作主语。四个选项中只
28、有that符合要求。A.fireB.beautyC.fashionD.warmth解析：解析 语义衔接题。该句告诉读者，人类穿衣服除了基本的要求之外还有许多其他原因，比如下文着重讲的装饰。根据常识以及选项分析，warmth是最为正确的解释，人类穿衣很大程度上是为了取暖，而fire, beauty, fashion等词均不符合题意。A.inB.withC.toD.by解析：解析 介词固定搭配题。to some extent意为“在某种程度上”，符合题意，所以C为正确答案。A.warmerB.plainerC.more gracefulD.thicker解析：解析 形容词衔接题。该句的意思是“人类
29、穿衣在某种程度上是为了装扮自己，尽可能让自己看起来更得体更优雅”，所以more graceful最符合题意，而不是看起来更暖和(warmer)，更朴素(plainer)或更厚重(thicker)。A.fashionableB.plainestC.expensiveD.cheapest解析：解析 形容词语义辨析题。该句的意思是“文明人所穿的衣服，即使是最简单朴素的也有纽扣、领子等，作为一种装饰”。该句含有让步的关系，fashionable和expensive不符合语意，cheapest是“最便宜的”的意思，便宜不代表简单，所以也不符合题意，故B为正确答案。A.decorationB.styleC
30、.formatD.structure解析：解析 名词衔接题。根据上句的动词decorate，可以判断该句中“纽扣、领子等起到一种装饰作用”，故用decoration。style是“式样，风格”；format是“生产方式，安排方式”；structure是“结构，构造”，均不符合题意。A.fitB.suitable forC.fit forD.suits解析：解析 动词辨析题。分析句子结构发现，在该长句中，that引导一个定语从句并在从句中作主语，we think是一个插入语，所填词必须是一个及物动词，表示“适合”的意思。suit和fit都有“合适，合身”的意思，但此处fit用的是原形，应该为第三
31、人称单数；suitable for和fit for也表示“合适”的意思，但它们是形容词词组，在语法上不符合要求，因此只有suits是正确答案。A.whatB.whichC.whoD.that解析：解析 语法结构题。此处要填的词应该和looks nice一起构成宾语从句，在该从句中作主语，根据语意，只有what符合要求，表示“看起来漂亮的衣服”。A.ExceptB.As forC.BesidesD.Owing to解析：解析 逻辑关系题。根据上下文，此处表示一种递进的关系，意思为“穿衣服除了装扮自己，还会将我们与我们一起生活的人群联系起来”。分析选项，只有besides表示递进的关系，故为正解。
32、A.connectB.makeC.takeD.link解析：解析 动词固定搭配题。link up with是固定搭配，表示“与连接，联系着”，为正确答案。connect只与with搭配，make可以与up with搭配，但表示“和某人和好”的意思；take up with表示“同意，采纳，使专注于”，不符合题意。A.shamefulB.uncomfortableC.angryD.worried解析：解析 形容词衔接题。该句的间断为“如果人们的衣服看起来不合适，他们就会感到不自在”，uncomfortable符合语意，为正确答案。shameful是“羞愧的，羞耻的”；angry是“生气的”；wo
33、rried是“担忧的”，都不符合题意。A.whoB.whoseC.whichD.what解析：解析 语法结构题。分析句子结构，发现those后面要填的词引导一个定语从句，在从句中作wear的宾语，意思是“如果他们不熟悉与我们年龄、性别、国家和时代相同的人都穿些什么”。四个选项中只有which符合要求。A.beliefsB.ideasC.viewsD.commissions解析：解析 名词辨析题。belie堤“信仰”；idea是“主意，想法，观点”；view是“景色，视野，观点”；commissions是“任务，委托”。和religious(宗教的)搭配的一般是belief一词，故A为正确答案。
34、Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offered them and a child rarely dislikes food 21 it is badly cooked. The 22 a meal is cooked and served is most important and an 23 served meal will often improve a childs appetite. Never ask a child 24 he likes or dislike
35、s a food and never 25 likes and dislikes in front of him or allow 26 else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother 27 vegetables in the childs hearing, he is 28 to copy this procedure. Take it 29 granted that he likes everything and he probably 30 . Nothing healthful should be om
36、itted from the meal because of a 31 dislike. At meal times it is a good 12 to give a child a small portion and let him 32 back for a second helping rather than give him as 33 as he is likely to eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child 15 meal times, but let him get on with his food; and do
37、 not 34 him to leave the table immediately after a meal or he will 35 learn to swallow his food 36 he can hurry back to his toys. Under 37 circumstances must a child be coaxed 38 forced to eat.（分数：30.00）A.ifB.untilC.thatD.unless解析：解析 语义衔接题。这句话的意思是“对于有着健康食欲的孩子，往往是给他什么就吃什么，他们很少有不喜欢吃的东西，除非食物做得太难吃了”。注意句
38、子里的双重否定：rarely dislike，表示“几乎没有不喜欢的”，后面应该用unless引导一个条件状语从句。所以选择D。A.procedureB.processC.wayD.method解析：解析 名词辨析题。procedure是“手续，步骤，程序，常规”的意思；process也有“程序，步骤”的意思，但它侧重“制作的方法”；way是“方法，办法”，最为常见和普遍；method是“方法，办法，教学法”的意思。本句强调的是“一顿饭如何制作与呈现是非常重要的”，故用process。A.adequatelyB.attractivelyC.urgentlyD.eagerly解析：解析 副词辨析
39、题。adequately是“充足地，充分地”；attractively是“吸引人地”；urgently是“紧急地”；eagerly是“急切地”。句子要表达的意思是“一顿诱人的饭食是很能引起孩子食欲的”，所以应该选择attractively，B为正确答案。A.whetherB.whatC.thatD.which解析：解析 逻辑关系题。此处是一个宾语从句，只有whether可以和or搭配，表示“是否”。句子的意思是“不要问一个小孩他喜欢还是不喜欢某种食物”，所以选择A。A.remarkB.tellC.discussD.argue解析：解析 动词辨析题。句子的意思是“不要当着孩子的面讨论对食物的喜恶
40、”。remark是“评说，谈论，谈到”；tell是“讲述，告诉”；discuss是“讨论，商议，辩论”，可以及物；argue是“讨论，辩论”，但一般后面要接介词about, for, against等。所以正确答案为C。A.everybodyB.anybodyC.somebodyD.nobody解析：解析 语义衔接题。句子的意思是“不要当着孩子的面讨论对食物的喜恶，也不要让其他人这样做”。句子是以never开头的，表示否定，所以用anybody，正确答案为B。A.opposesB.deniesC.refusesD.offends解析：解析 动词辨析题。opposes表示“反对”；denies表
41、示“否认，否定”；refuses表示“拒绝”；offends表示“冒犯”。句子的意思是“如果父亲说他讨厌吃肥肉，母亲说她反对吃蔬菜，那么孩子就很有可能跟着父母学了”，所以应该选择oppose，因此正确答案为A。A.willingB.possibleC.obligedD.likely解析：解析 固定搭配题。be likely to do sth.表示“很可能做某事”，该句的意思“孩子们很有可能跟着父母学”。be willing to do sth.表示“心甘情愿地做某事”；be obliged to do sth.表示“有义务或被迫做某事”；没有sb. be possible to do sth
42、.的用法。因此正确答案为D。A.withB.withC.overD.for解析：解析 固定搭配题。take it for granted表示“认为是理所当然的”，所以正确答案为D。A.shouldB.mayC.willD.must解析：解析 情态动词辨析题。句子的意思是“你想当然地认为孩子喜欢吃什么，他很有可能会喜欢吃什么”，此处应该用will表示意愿，所以C为正确答案。A.supposedB.provedC.consideredD.related解析：解析 形容词辨析题。此处是四个过去分词作形容词，修饰dislike。supposed表示“假想的，以为的”；proved表示“被证实了的”；c
43、onsidered表示“思考过的”；related表示“相关的”。句子的意思是“任何有营养的食物都不能因为你认为孩子不喜欢而从饭食中去掉”。所以正确答案是A。A.pointB.customC.ideaD.plan解析：解析 名词辨析题。该句的意思是“吃饭时先给孩子很少的一份，让他吃完了自己再要是个很好的主意”，所以应该选择idea。custom是“风俗”，plan是“计划”，均不符合题意。C为正确答案。A.askB.comeC.returnD.take解析：解析 动词固定搭配题。come back表示“回来”的意思，根据上下文，此处的意思是让孩子吃完了碗里的一份再来要更多的，因此B为正确答案。
44、A.muchB.littleC.fewD.many解析：解析 语义衔接题。句子的意思是“不要一次性给孩子可能吃下的量”，食物是不可数的，所以用as much as，因此A为正确答案。A.onB.overC.byD.during解析：解析 介词辨析题。根据选项进行判断，over有“在期间”的意思，和during同义，如果句子的意思是“在吃饭的时候”，那么这两个选项都可以选，故而排除。句子的意思应该是“到吃饭的时候不要跟孩子说太多”，所以应该选择by，C为正确答案。A.agreeB.allowC.forceD.persuade解析：解析 动词辨析题。句子的意思是“不要允许孩子一吃完饭就立刻离开饭桌
45、，这样的话他就会狼吞虎咽，为的是尽快地去玩他的玩具”。允许某人做做事用allow sb. to do sth.。agree是“同意”；force是“强迫”；persuade是“劝说”，都不符合题意。因此B为正确答案。A.hurriedlyB.soonC.fastD.slowly解析：解析 副词辨析题。前一题已解释了该句的意思，此处需要一个表示“匆忙地，飞快地”的副词，选项中只有hurriedly最合适，因此A为正确答案。A.so thatB.untilC.lestD.although解析：解析 逻辑关系题。此处so that引导一个目的状语从句。其余选项均不符合题意，故A为正确答案。A.someB.anyC.suchD.no解析：
