13、mories are set down as permanent neuronal (神经的) circuits 24 to be activated (激活) when the information is needed.

26、 timeC.on timeD.right now 解析：解析 “just now”意思为“刚才”；“in time”意思为“及时”；“on time”意思为“准时”；“right now”意思为“就现在”。只有 D项最符合语境。A.emergedB.rootedC.originated D.appeared解析：解析 “originate”意思为“起源于”，放在这里最符合语境。A.there B.thenC.whichD.where解析：解析 本题的正确选择与前面的地点有关系。注意，D 项的错误在于“where”引导的定语从句不应该与前面的句子用句号分开。前面的句号说明这是两个独立的句子，只

27、能用“there”。A.climate B.weatherC.soilD.land解析：解析 此处指的是大的气候环境，不能用天气(weather)一词。“mild climate”意思为“温和型气候”。“mild”一词不能修饰“soil”和“land”。A.nowhereB.everywhereC.elsewhereD.anywhere 解析：解析 数字前面的引导代词，只能用“anywhere”，意思为一棵柠檬树可以结果在 200至 1500个柠檬之间。A.plantB.sowC.bloomD.harvest 解析：解析 harvest 意思为“成熟、丰收”，最适合上下文的语境。A.thoug

28、hB.as C.whileD.when解析：解析 由于前面说的是地点“阳台”，后面的引导词只有可能用“where”以及表示因果关系的“as”。“as”引导一个原因状语从句，可以翻译成“因为”。A.probablyB.literallyC.likelyD.preferably 解析：解析 此处讲的是柠檬树的习性，更喜欢靠着墙“preferably against a wall”。其他选项的意思不符合语境。A.closedB.covered C.packedD.buried解析：解析 为了防冻，只有 B和 D项有可能。但是将柠檬树盖(covered)起来的可能性更大一些。只是对诸如葡萄的藤类一般是

29、埋在(buried)土里过冬的。There once was a master who came to India, perhaps from Persia. When he got there, he saw a lot of 11 . In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is expensive.

30、f the fruit and started 12 it. But after he ate some of it, his eyes and mouth 13 and burned, and his face became red. He coughed and choked, jumping up and down. But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were 14 him said, “Those are hot peppers! People use them as a flavor, but only

31、a little bit to put into food for 15 . You can“t just eat them 16 that; they“re not fruit!“ But the stupid master said, “No, I can“t stop! I 17 money for them, and now I“ll eat them. It“s my money!“ And you think that master was stupid, right? 18 , we sometimes do a lot of things like that. We inves

33、money he“d paid.（分数：25.00）A.basketsB.peppersC.fruit D.people解析：解析 此处出现的词汇必须与下面一个句子的内容相对应。由于后面的句子中有“fruit”，所以此处应该选择 C。其他选项放在此处从上下文看意思讲不通。A.consumingB.sellingC.bitingD.eating 解析：解析 “biting”意思为“咬一口”。由于后面说了他吃了很多辣椒，此处应该用“eating”，并且与后面句子的动词保持一致。A.watered B.waterC.wateringD.waters解析：解析 应该注意后面的“and”是连词，紧跟的动

34、词“burned”是过去式。连词的前后动词形式应该保持一致，所以前面的动词形式应该是过去式“watered”。A.dealing withB.looking atC.laughing at D.playing with解析：解析 由于他大口地光吃辣椒，当地人肯定会感到好笑。从语法上判断，B 项的 “looking at(旁观)”和“laughing at(嘲笑)”都正确。但是，此处“嘲笑”的可能性更大一点。A.smellB.taste C.nutritionD.health解析：解析 辣椒的主要作用是为了增加味道“taste”。A.like B.asC.forD.with解析：解析 “like

35、 that”意思为“像那样一样”。“like”是介词，后面跟代词“that”。“as”是连词，后面要求跟句子，所以放在此处不正确。其他选项意思有误。A.spentB.madeC.earnedD.paid 解析：解析 应该特别注意“spend”与“pay”的区别。它们的搭配不同，也就是说后面所跟的名词有区别。一般“spend”后面跟具体的数额，例如，“spend$20 for”。而“pay”后面跟 “money, price”等。也请参考文章的最后一个句子“the money he“d paid”。A.TraditionallyB.HopefullyC.Similarly D.Unexpecte

36、dly解析：解析 应该判断此处前面和后面两句话的层次关系。此处是一个并列关系，所以应该用“similarly(同样的)”。A.whenB.ifC.because D.since解析：解析 此处的考点还是需要判断句子的层次关系。此处是一个因果关系，“因为，我们还是坚持这样做。”A.suffered B.enjoyedC.investedD.complained解析：解析 辣椒吃多了肯定难受，所以此处应该使用“suffer(遭罪)”一词。其他选项的意思有误。Working memory, or short-term memory, involves the ability to hold and

37、use information in the immediate future. 21 is only held in working memory for about 20 seconds.

41、KnowledgeD.Ability解析：解析 本题应该注意上下文的线索。由于前后两个句子中都有“information”一词出现，而其他选项的词汇在上下文中找不到支持线索，意思也不符合语境。A.haveB.takeC.face D.hold解析：解析 本题是一个动词与名词的固定搭配，“face the challenge”意思为“面临挑战”。其他选项的动词与“challenge”一词不搭配。A.slipping B.turningC.movingD.stepping解析：解析 “slipping away”意思为“流失”。其他选项的动词与后面的介词“away”不搭配。A.usefulB.go

42、odC.openD.ready 解析：解析 “ready to be activated when”意思为“当的时候立刻被激活”。其他选项的形容词在此意思讲不通。A.usuallyB.oftenC.well D.soon解析：解析 由于空格前面是一个一般动词，后面只能使用一个程度副词，所以 C项是最佳答案。此外，这是一个时间句，前面已经有了一个时间词“when”，后面就不用其他选项时间词了。A.DuringB.ByC.Like D.Unlike解析：解析 此处意思为“正像锻炼肌肉一样”。A 项“during”后面不能跟动名词。B 和 D项 则意思错误。A.in B.atC.fromD.with

43、解析：解析 注意固定搭配词组“result in”意思为“导致，引起”，原因在前结果在后。而“result from”意思为“由导致”，结果在前原因在后。“result”一词与 B和 D项的介词没有搭配。A.whereB.whichC.whatD.who 解析：解析 本题为语法题。应该注意动词“leave”词尾没有加“s”，后面的从句是复数名词“hikers”的定语从句，所以引导词应该是“who”。其他选项都不符合语法要求。A.stronger B.weakerC.longerD.shorter解析：解析 注意连词“and”前后为一个并列关系，“reinforced”意思为“加强”与后面的“s

44、tronger”一词从意思上互相呼应。其他选项词义意思不符合。A.over B.backC.offD.on解析：解析 A 项搭配和意思最符合上下文要求。Where do our favorite foods come from? The truth may 31 you. Did you know curry (咖喱) isn“t Indian?

49、”一词。所以答案只能是 C。A.in detailB.in shortC.in turnD.in reality 解析：解析 “in reality”意思为“事实上”，在这里最符合上下文的背景；“in detail”意思为“详细的”；“in short”意思为“简而言之”；“in turn”意思为“按照顺序”。A.before B.afterC.whenD.while解析：解析 注意这几个时间关系词之间的区别。下文讲到咖喱在英国人去印度之前早就存在了，所以此处应该选 A。A.cooksB.familiesC.dishes D.places解析：解析 注意代词“these”的用法，后面的名词应该在前面出现过，并且要求意思上讲得通，只有C“这些咖喱菜”先是英国富人家庭享用，后来也传到英国其他地方。A.Compared toB.AS for C.But forD.In addition to解析：解析 “As for”意思为“至于”，最符合本句话的意思。“Compared to”意思为“比较”；“But for”意思为“要不是”；“In addition
