26、ed as a workplace asset in the years to come. /(分数:50.00)(1).A. assumes B. believesC. thinks D. holds(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。四个选项都可以表示“认为”,但意义侧重各有不同。A:assumes表示“假定,设想”,根据上下文可知,人们常认为智商高的人所取得的成就也越多,但这种观点却缺乏科学的依据来证实,由此可以断定,A:assumes为正确答案。B:believes强调“相信某事是真实的”;C:thinks表示“持有某种观点”;D:holds强调“持有某种信念,坚
27、定地相信某事是真实的”,均可以排除。(2).A. some B. moreC. many D. less(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 副词辨析题。联系上下文可知,人们普遍认为智商高的人所取得的成就比普通人要多。故空白处应填入表示“更多”的比较级more,因此B正确。A和C不是比较级,故排除;D:less“更少”,与原文意义相悖,故排除。(3).A. choose B. makeC. allow D. distinguish(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。A:choose“选择”,符合文意,故为答案。B:make“制造”,学校是不可能制造孩子的,故排除;
28、C:allow可与for搭配,有两种方式,直接搭配构成短语allow for,表示“估计到,考虑到;对留有余地”,例如:allow for the circumstances“估计到当时的情况”。还可以用作allow sth. for sth. “为留出;分配”;例如:The schedule allows time for a coffee break. 时间表留出了喝咖啡的休息时间。因此该项与原文不符,也应排除;D:distinguish“区别”,也与文意不符,故排除。(4).A. levels B. testsC. courses D. works(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:
29、解析 名词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,并列连词and连接的空白处应该与gifted programs“天才项目”是并列的成分,C:courses与advanced连用,表示“高级课程”,符合文意,故为答案。选项中A:levels“水平,层次”、B:tests“考试,测试”和D:works“著作”均不能与gifted programs“天才项目”形成并列关系,故均可排除。(5).A. as B. forC. with D. by(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 介词辨析题。A:as“当作,作为”,符合文意,故为答案。B:for“为了”、C:with“用,和在一起”和D:by“通过,经过
30、”均与文意不符,故排除。(6).A. know B. judgeC. say D. determine(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。B:judge表示“评价,评判”,和介词with连用,常表示“用评判”,因此B正确。A:know“了解”、C:say“说”和D:determine“决定”均与文意不符,故排除。(7).A. Certainly B. HoweverC. Yet D. Moreover(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 语篇衔接题。上文提到过去人们常认为智商高的人取得的成就也比较多;本句指出研究者发现实际情况并不一定这样。可见,本句与上文是转折关
31、系,再加上空格后有逗号,就可以断定空白处应填入一个表示转折关系的连接副词,选项中只有However符合题意,故B正确。A:Certainly“当然”,表示肯定,与文意不符,故排除;C:Yet“然而,依然”,但一般不用在句首,故排除;D:Moreover“而且,此外”,表示递进,与文意不符,故排除。(8).A. mental B. intellectualC. emotional D. affectional(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。文章前半部分讨论的是智商(IQ),后半部分讨论的是情商(emotional intelligence),本句在讨论情商,因此C:e
32、motional“情感的”为正确答案。A:mental“心理的,精神的”、B:intellectual“智力的”和D:affectional“情感上的,爱情的”均与文意不符,故排除。(9).A. fields B. levelsC. points D. walks(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 固定搭配题。all walks of life是固定搭配,表示“各个方面,各行各业”,因此D:walks为正确答案。(10).A. including B. involvingC. consisting D. taking(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 语法题。分析句子结构可
33、知,此处应该填入一个介词,选项中只有including为介词,故A为正确答案。B:involving“包括,涉及”、C:consisting“由组成”和D:taking“拿走”都是现在分词,不合语法要求,故排除。(11).A. named B. madeC. called D. introduced(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。introduce表示“引进,采用”,符合文意,故D为正确答案。A:named“命名”、B:made“创造”和C:called“称呼”均与文意不符,故排除。(12).A. term B. nameC. phrase D. idiom(分数:2
34、.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。emotional intelligence是一种术语,而选项中只有term一词表示“术语”,且前一句中已经有明显的照应,故A为正确答案。B:name“名字”、C:phrase“短语”和D:idiom“习语”均不适合用来描述“情商”一词,因此这三个选项均应排除。(13).A. perfectly B. correctlyC. properly D. precisely(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 副词辨析题。properly“适当地”,常用于表示行为的恰当,因此选C。A:perfectly“完美地”、B:correctly“正确地
35、”和D:precisely“精确地,正好”均与原文意思不符,故排除。(14).A. invented B. createdC. publicized D. popularized(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。D:popularized表示“使普及,推广”,符合文意,故为答案。A:invented意为“发明”,B:created意为“创造”,由上文可知,“情商”这个术语并不是由Daniel Goleman第一次提出或创造的,因此排除A和B;C:publicized“出版,发行”不能与term搭配使用,故排除。(15).A. Teachers B. DoctorsC.
36、Researchers D. Workers(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。文章第二段第二句提到“研究者们发现并不一定这样”,并在下文中以Mayer博士和Salovey博士以及心理学家Goleman的研究为例进行说明;由此可见,对emotional intelligence进行研究的人是研究工作者researchers,因此C正确。A:Teachers“老师”、B:Doctors“博士;医生”和D:Workers“工人”均与原文内容不符,故排除。(16).A. for example B. for instanceC. such as D. about(分数:2.50
37、)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 介词短语辨析题。A:for example,B:for instance和C:such as都可以表示“例如”,但such as之后常接具有并列关系的词组,因此应选C。D:about“关于”,不符合句意,故排除。(17).A. maturity B. ripenessC. familiarity D. mellowness(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。这四个选项都可以表示“熟”,但意义侧重各有不同。A:maturity侧重“人格的成熟;计划的完备”,因此可以用psychological maturity来表示“心理成熟度”,故A正确。B
38、:ripeness主要指“食物、果实的成熟”;C:familiarity指的是“熟悉,亲密”;D:mellowness强调“水果的成熟,甘美多汁”,后三项都与原文不符,故均排除。(18).A. effect B. operationC. use D. power(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 固定搭配题。根据原文可知,此句讨论的是在“情商”这个术语开始被使用前,人们如何研究情商的。四个选项都可以和come into搭配,但意义不同。C:come into use表示“开始被使用”,根据文意可知C正确。come into effect表示“开始生效”;come into opera
39、tion表示“开始运转”;come into power表示“执政,掌权”,故A、B以及D均不符合文意,可排除。(19).A. uncover B. unsettleC. unlock D. undress(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。四个选项都有否定前缀un-,分别具有不同的意思:A:uncover表示“揭开,揭露”,联系原文内容可知,A:uncover为正确答案。B:unsettle表示“使不安”;C:unlock表示“开启,揭开”,作“揭开”解时,宾语常为mystery,puzzle等;D:undress表示“脱下衣服”,均可以排除。(20).A. As fo
40、r B. As toC. According to D. As regards(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 介词短语辨析题。A:As for“至于,就某人而言”、B:As to“关于,至于”、D:As regards“至于,关于”这三个选项均不能引起某人说的话,故排除。C:According to“依据,依照”,符合文意,故为正确答案。A scientist who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior.
