24、4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Communication devices will become dirt-cheap）解析：解析 细节题。第一段倒数第二句提及communications devices become dirt-cheap and multiple，由此可知，它们的价格变得非常便宜，数量也将成倍地增加。(4).Why is the number of satellites likely to increase?（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Because launching space vehicles is becoming very lnuch c

25、heaper）解析：解析 细节题。文中第二段第二句明确指出 Because launching space vehicles is about to become very much cheaper，由此不难得出答案。(5).What will happen to the current towers and masts of future globa communications network?（分数：4.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：They might be replaced by low-orbit satellites）解析：解析 推断题。由第二段第四句low-orbit sa

26、tellites you can establish a global communications network that completely does away with towers and masts 可知，towers and masts 很可能会被 low-orbit satellites 代替。do away with 意为“废除，弄死”，例如：Many European countries have done away with death penalty许多欧洲国家都废除了死刑。二、Cloze(总题数：1，分数：60.00)Music comes in many form

31、n both the harmony and the melody of the tunes (20) at the funeral. This music made everyone want to dance. It was an early form of jazz.（分数：60.00）A.At B.ByC.InD.On解析：解析 惯用搭配题。at the turn of 是惯用搭配，意为“在之初”，故选 A。A.musicB.songC.melodyD.style 解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。由文章第一句中的 have a style of their own 和下文可知，当时的美国没有自

32、己的音乐风格，所以 D 正确。A.discoveredB.actedC.invented D.designed解析：解析 词义辨析题。invent 意为“发明，创造”，结合句意“没有人知道爵士乐是在什么时候由谁_的”可知，C 正确。discover 意为“发现”，act 意为“表演”，design 意为“设计”，均排除。A.noticed B.foundC.listenedD.heard解析：解析 词义辨析题。notice 意为“注意(到)”，结合句意“爵士乐在 20 世纪初开始被_”可知，A 正确。find 意为“发现”，listen 不用于被动语态，hear 意为“听见”，均排除。A.cl

33、assicalB.sacredC.popular D.light解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。下文把 jazz 和 classical music 进行对比，由此可知，jazz 属于 popular music(流行音乐)，所以 C 正确。A.inB.byC.to D.up解析：解析 惯用搭配题。in contrast to 是惯用搭配，意为“和形成对比”，故选 C。in contrast to，in contrast with 和 in contrast 都意为“和形成对比”，但 in contrast 后面不能直接接宾语，且一般要用逗号隔开。A.follows B.formsC.approach

34、esD.introduces解析：解析 词义辨析题。follow 意为“遵循”，结合上下文可知，古典音乐遵循正规的欧洲传统，所以 A 正确。form 意为“形成”，approach 意为“接近”，introduce 意为“引进，传入”，均排除。A.energy B.humourC.waterD.light解析：解析 词义辨析题。由前句的 spontaneous 和 free-form 及本句的语境可知，A 正确，其他选项都不属于爵士乐作为 popular music 的风格，故排除。bubble 意为“起泡，沸腾”，惯用搭配为 bubble over/with(充满的感情)，例如：Mary w

35、as bubbling wich joy玛丽满心喜悦。A.asB.so C.eitherD.neither解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题可采用排除法。空格前的 and 是并列连词，连接的两个成分应是平行结构，所以 and 之后也应该是一个句子。as 引导的应为从句，排除；either 和 neither 从结构和句意上都不符合，排除；故选 B，意为“现在的爵士乐听起来也是具有美国特色的”。so+主语+系动词(助动词或情态动词)句型的主语与前一句的主语相同，因而主谓不倒装。该句型表示说话者对前句所提到的情况或事实表示赞同，其中 so 意为“不错，确实如此”，例如：He studies hardso

36、 he does他学习很努力。确实如此。A.interesting B.interestedC.usefulD.far解析：解析 语法结构题。本题重在区分 interesting 和 interested。interesting 一般修饰物，而interested 一般修饰人，此处用来修饰爵士乐，故应选择 interesting，as interesting as 意为“和一样有趣”，所以 A 正确。A.playersB.followersC.fansD.pioneers 解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。结合上文提到的 origin 可知，此处应该指黑人是爵士乐的创造者。player意为“演奏者”；f

37、ollower 意为“追随者”；fan 意为“爱好者”；pioneer 意为“先锋，开拓者”。结合句意可知，D 正确。A.forB.as C.withD.by解析：解析 词义辨析题。as 意为“当作”，本句的意思是“他们被带到南部各州当奴隶”。其他选项都没有此意，所以 B 正确。A.toldB.willingC.forced D.asked解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。force 意为“强迫”，其被动形式 be forced 意为“被迫”。结合句意可知，奴隶们是被强迫劳动的，故选 C。be told to do sth和 be asked to do sth都是“被要求做某事”，但没有被强迫之意，b

38、e willing to do sth意为“情愿或乐意做某事”。A.demonstratedB.composedC.hostedD.formed 解析：解析 惯用搭配题。form a procession 意为“形成队列”；demonstrate 意为“示范，示威”；compose 意为“组成，写作”，惯用搭配为 be composed of“由所组成”；host 意为“招待”。结合句意可知，D 正确。A.farmB.ceremonyC.houseD.cemetery 解析：解析 词义辨析题。farm 意为“农场”；ceremony 意为“仪式”；house 意为“住宅”；cemetery 意

39、为“墓地，公墓”。结合句意可知，D 正确。A.demonstrationB.procession C.bodyD.march解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题属于同义复现，上文出现过 form a procession，而此处是指“有一个乐队给队伍伴奏”，所以 B(队伍)正确。demonstration 意为“示范，示威”，body 意为“身体；团体”，march 意为“行军”，均排除。A.EvenB.ThereforeC.FurthermoreD.But 解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。根据下文的 the mood changed 可知，空格处应表示转折之意，故选 but，其余三项均不合句意，应排除。A.

40、alive B.liveC.livelyD.life解析：解析 词义辨析题。alive 意为“活着的”，在此为形容词作表语，其他选项都不合句意。A.sadB.solemnC.happy D.funeral解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题属于反义复现，由上文提到的 slow 和 solemn 可知，此处应与之形成对比，所以 C 正确。A.whistledB.sungC.presented D.showed解析：解析 词义辨析题。whistle 意为“吹口哨”；sing 意为“唱”；presented 意为“表演”；show 意为“展示”。只有 present 能与 the tunes 搭配，所以 C

41、 正确。三、Translation(总题数：5，分数：20.00)1.Her first performance for the amateur dramatic group was a success, in spite of 1(她以前从未表演过).（分数：4.00）解析：解析 本题考查 in spite of 的用法，其意为“尽管，虽然”，后接名词或名词性短语作状语。故此题答案为 her never having acted before。2.Just as the soil is a part of the earth, (大气层也是).（分数：4.00）解析：解析 本题考查固定搭配。

42、Just as，so为固定结构，意为“正如，也”。该句意为：“正像土壤是地球的一部分，大气层也是。”3.Jenny has just arrived, but 1(直到昨天我才知道她来).（分数：4.00）解析：解析 从句的时间状语是“直到昨天”，所以从句要用过去时。“直到昨天”译成 until yesterday，故此题答案为 I didnt know she was coming until yesterday。4.The small mountain village 1(被大雪封住达一个多月).（分数：4.00）解析：解析 本题考查固定搭配。主要难点就是“封住”，若不知道相应的单词，可以用学过的同义短语代替。cut off 意为“切断；使隔断”，用被动式同样能表达“被大雪封住”的意思。5.Loudspeakers were fixed in the hall 1(以便每个人都有机会听到讲座).（分数：4.00）解析：解析 “以便”可以译成 so that 或 in order that，“有机会做”译成 have an opportunity to do sth。故此题答案也可以为 in order that everyone may have an opportunity to hear the speech。
