21、drilling holes in (3) with their beaks. They have several characteristics that help. in their survival. For example, their short, strong legs have four (4) toes.

First, there are those words (1) which we become acquainted in daily conversation, which we (2) , that is to say, from the (3) of our own family and from our familiar associates, and (

Our (13) acquaintance with them comes not from our mothers (14) or from the talk of our

31、schoolmates, (15) from books that we read, lectures that we (16) , or the more (17) conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular (18) in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual (19) of everyday life. Such words are called “ (20) “, and the distinction between

32、 them and the “popular“ words is of great importance to a right understanding of linguistic process.（分数：20.00）A.atB.with C.byD.through解析：解析 惯用搭配题。由选项可知本句属于“介词+which”的定语从句结构，修饰先行词 those words；从句中谓语动词部分的 acquainted 常和 with 构成短语，意为“认识，了解”，故 B 正确。A.studyB.imitateC.stimulateD.learn 解析：解析 词义辨析题。由空格后的线索词 t

33、hat is to say(也就是说)可知，第二个 which 从句是对第一个 which 从句的解释。另外，that is to say 作为插入语，分析句子结构时可以忽略。因此本题的解题点就是要找一个与 from 连用的动词。study 意为“学习”，可与 from 连用，但常指比较深入的学习或研究，而且学习对象又常常是科学、艺术或其他需要深入探讨的学科，不是单纯地获得技巧；imitate意为“模仿”，用作及物动词；stimulate 意为“刺激，激发”；learn 意为“学习，学会”，常与 from连用，指通过学习、练习或别人教授以获得某种知识或技能，故 D 正确。A.matesB.re

34、lativesC.members D.fellows解析：解析 惯用搭配题。此题可由常用表达 family member(家庭成员)得出答案，即 members of our own family。A.which B.thatC.thoseD.ones解析：解析 语法结构题。本题所属的句子看似结构复杂，其实是限制性定语从句，和前面 1、2 题所在句并列，共同修饰先行词 those words。所以由三个并列的由 which 引导的定语从句可以推知选 A。that和 which 都可以引导定语从句，但在以下情况下只能用 that 来引导：先行词为 all，little，something，any

35、，many，anything，nothing 时；先行词 all，the same，the only，few，much，some，any，no 修饰时；当先行词既有人又有物时；当先行词被最高级或表示次序的词修饰时。非限制性定语从句只能由 which，who，whose，when，where，as 引导。A.mindB.concern C.careD.involve解析：解析 词义辨析题。mind 和 care 意为“介意，计较”，concern 意为“涉及”，involve 意为“卷入；包含”，结合句意可知，B 正确。A.hireB.applyC.adoptD.use 解析：解析 词义辨析题。

36、hire 意为“雇用”，apply 意为“运用，申请”，adopt 意为“采用，采纳”，use 意为“使用”，本题的宾语为 the language，所以 D 正确，即“使用语言”。A.BothB.EachC.Such D.All解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。由后半句 since 引导的原因状语从句可知，such 意为“这样的，这种”，符合句意，指代之前所讲的一类 words。A.rightB.privilege C.shareD.possession解析：解析 词义辨析题。right 意为“权利”，指一种“法律主张”，是抽象的概念；privilege 意为“特权”，被一部分人所拥有的权利；shar

37、e 意为“份额”，指人们所拥有的一部分；possession 意为“拥有”，指拥有的状态。由本句末尾的 limited class 可知，是说特定阶级的特权，所以选 B。A.consistsB.comprises C.constitutesD.composes解析：解析 词义辨析题。consist 是不及物动词，后面需要接 of，意为“由组成”；comprise 是及物动词，意为“包括，由组成”；constitute 是及物动词，意为“组成，构成”；compose 作“构成，组成”讲时，为及物动词，常用于 be composed of(由组成)；结合句意可知，B 正确。consist 和 co

38、mprise 意为“由组成”，constitute 和 compose 意为“组成，构成”，两组词词义相反。A.seldom B.muchC.neverD.often解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。seldom 意为“很少，不常”，从形容第一种词汇的 daily，common，popular等词可推断，第二种词汇应为比较少用的，故选 A。A.breedingB.cultivatingC.educated D.learning解析：解析 词义辨析题。用过去分词 educated 作定语修饰 people，意为“受过教育的人”，符合句意，故选 C；其他选项分别是意为“养育”、“培养”和“学习”的现在分词形

39、式，不可直接修饰people，均排除。A.prospectB.wayC.reasonD.necessity 解析：解析 词义辨析题。necessity 意为“必要性”，本句是指在家里或集市上没有必要使用这些词汇；prospect 意为“前景”，way 意为“方式”，reason 意为“理由”，均排除。A.primaryB.first C.principalD.prior解析：解析 词义辨析题。first 意为“起初，首先”，本句的意思是“我们最初既不是从母亲嘴里也不是从同学那里了解这些单词的”；primary 意为“首要的；最初阶段的”，principal 意为“主要的，首要的”，prior

40、意为“优先的，在前的”，后三个词都暗含在重要性方面的比较，但文中并未体现此意，故排除。A.tipsB.mouthC.lips D.tongue解析：解析 惯用搭配题。from ones lips 是惯用搭配，意为“从某人嘴里”，故选 C。A.besidesB.andC.orD.but 解析：解析 惯用搭配题。由上一句comes not from和本句_from可推知，该空应为notbut的惯用搭配，所以 D 正确。notbut 意为“不是而是”，连接两个并列的成分，表示意思上的转折，可连接表语、谓语、宾语和主语。连接两个主语时，谓语动词要与紧靠它的主语在人称和数上保持一致，例如：Not the

41、 students but the teacher is hoping to go there不是学生而是老师希望去那儿。A.hearB.attend C.goD.listen解析：解析 惯用搭配题。attend a lecture 是惯用搭配，意为“参加讲座”，故选 B。A.formerB.formulaC.formal D.formative解析：解析 词义辨析题。formal 意为“正式的”，从上文的相关信息词 books，lectures 和 highly educated speakers 可知，C 正确，即“更加正式的交谈”；former 意为“以前的”，formula 意为“公式

42、，方程”，formative 意为“形成的”，均排除。A.themeB.topic C.ideaD.point解析：解析 词义辨析题。topic 意为“话题”，本题指讨论的话题，故选 B；theme 意为“(谈话的)题目，(文章的)主题”，idea 意为“主意，观点”，point 意为“观点，论点”，因此可知 B 符合句意。A.borderB.linkC.degreeD.extent 解析：解析 词义辨析题。degree 和 extent 均可表示程度，但 degree 多用来衡量质量、感情和能力，而 extent 可表示“范围”。本句意为“讨论问题的方式超越了日常生活的范围”，所以 exte

43、nt 正确；border 意为“边界”，link 意为“连接”，均排除。A.usedB.learned C.knownD.new解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。本题属于反义复现，由第一种词汇 popular 以及文中所说的第二种词汇的出处可知答案为 learned，即“学术上的”。We have spoken of marriage as a formal contract. It should be noted, however, that this contract does not (1) the same form in different societies. In Western soci

They remain (18) children even (19) the wife subsequently leaves him to live with (20) man.（分数：20.00）A.makeB.getC.take D.do解析

47、：解析 惯用搭配题。take the form of 是惯用搭配，意为“采取形式”，故选 C。A.conditionB.differenceC.union D.divorce解析：解析 词义辨析题。union 意为“结合”，即“在西方社会，男女的结合只有由政府认可的官员登记后才算合法婚姻”，所以 C 正确；condition 意为“条件”，difference 意为“区别”，divorce 意为“离婚”，均不符合句意。A.is B.areC.wasD.were解析：解析 语法结构题。谓语动词的主语是 the union，为单数，且联系上下文的时态可知，空格处应填入一般现在时，故选 A。A.re

48、cognizingB.recognizeC.recognizesD.recognized 解析：解析 语法结构题。recognized 意为“经过验证的，认可的”，过去分词短语 recognized by the state 作定语修饰 official，即“被认可的官员”，故选 D。A.however B.yetC.thoughD.still解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。结合上下文可知，marriage has nothing to do _ an official registration of this kind 与given the status of legal marriage by b

49、eing registered by an official 形成对比，所以空格处应填入表转折的词，排除 C、D 项；由于空格前后用逗号隔开，故选 A。A.with B.fromC.forD.to解析：解析 惯用搭配题。have nothing to dowith 是惯用搭配，意为“与无关”，故选 A。A.exchange B.contactC.communicationD.connection解析：解析 词义辨析题。exchange 意为“交换”，结合句意“婚姻通过正式的货物取得合法地位”可知，A 正确；contact 意为“接触”，communication 意为“交流，交换(消息)”，connection 意为“连接”，均排除。A.thatB.thisC.oneD.it 解析：解析 语法结构题。此处考查强调句型，即 It iswho/that 结构，it 作形式主语，故选 D。A.oftenB.sometimes C.alwaysD.sometime解析：解析 逻辑衔接题。由句首的 Generally
