28、onomy.（分数：30.00）A.adaptsB.takesC.wastesD.spends解析：解析 空格后的50%longer表示的是时间，“花费时间做某事”常用动词take，而且下文也有takes复现，不难判断这里选B。spend应用“人”作主语。A.whereB.thatC.whatD.how解析：解析 这里需要填入定语从句的引导词，空格后的定语从句不缺主语和宾语，可排除B和C，而how不引导定语从句，所以选A。A.displacedB.distractedC.discardedD.dispersed解析：解析 与concentrate.on相对的状态就是被distract“干扰，分

29、心”，故选B。displace“替换”；discard“丢弃”；disperse“散开”。A.as well asB.as long asC.as far asD.as soon as解析：解析 们可以高效流畅地工作的前提条件是不被打扰，as long as“只要”表示条件，符合语义。as well as“也”；as far as“远到，直到”；as soon as“一就”。A.negativeB.objectiveC.sensitiveD.positive解析：解析 空格处表明专注的思维与外部干扰的关系。四个选项中，只有sensitive“敏感的”填入句中符合逻辑，即“专注的思维对外部的干扰

30、仍很敏感”，选C。negative“消极的”；objective“客观的”；positive“积极的”。A.similarB.equalC.uniqueD.unrelated解析：解析 破折号之间的内容是interruptions的解释。通常干扰因素都是一些不相关的事情，这里用unrelated“不相关的”符合句意。similar“相似的”；equal“平等的”；unique“独一无二的”。A.eraseB.avoidC.easeD.cancel解析：解析 填入的动词应与其后的scramble“扰乱”属于同一范畴。erase指“清除”，这里指“清除并扰乱良好的且优化的大脑状态”，选A合适。av

31、oid“避免”不合逻辑，如果能避免就不会被干扰；ease“减轻”和cancel“删除”后通常接具体事物。A.merelyB.consistentlyC.previouslyD.rarely解析：解析 良好的且优化的大脑状态不会发生在被干扰的时候，一定是受干扰之前的状态，故用preciously“之前地”，选C。merely“仅仅”；consistently“一贯”；rarely“很少”。A.AndB.ButC.YetD.Otherwise解析：解析 空格前后两句话之间并没有转折关系，而是承接关系，故选A而排除其他三项。A.by contrastB.in practiceC.in particu

32、larD.on average解析：解析 当一个人被打断时，需要花23分钟恢复原先状态，这里描述的是一种普遍情况，用on average“平均”符合句意。by contrast“相反”；in practice“在实践中”；in particular“尤其”。A.get downB.get offC.get backD.get up解析：解析 get back to意为“恢复到”，这里指“花23分钟重回到之前的工作”，选C。get down to“开始认真处理”；get off“离开，下车”；get up“起来，起床”。A.onB.upC.overD.upon解析：解析 up to是个固定搭配，

33、意为“长达，高达”，这里指“要恢复到之前工作效率高的流畅状态则需另外加上长达30分钟的时间”，选B。A.soB.afterC.unlessD.because解析：解析 从空格后的内容“人们能再次回到高效的状态”判断，该句与之前的内容是一种承接关系，用so最恰当。A.backB.downC.withD.off解析：解析 介词with不能与knock搭配，首先排除。knock back意为“回敲；猛饮；使大吃一惊”，knock down意为“击倒；拆卸”；knock off意为“停止；将打击掉”。D填入句中表示“你打断别人时，有一半机会会使他们完全脱离工作状态”。A.such thatB.in t

34、hatC.now thatD.as that解析：解析 such that“以至于”，表结果；in that“因为”，表原因；now that“既然”，表原因；没有as that结构。从句子前后逻辑来看，这里需要一个表结果的词组，表示被打扰后的结果，选A。A.enduresB.continuesC.beginsD.ends解析：解析 上文提到被打扰后要花很长时间才能恢复到原先高效的状态，故这里表示“当干扰消失后，他们仍不能马上重新投入到之前的工作”，用end“结束”。endure“忍受”。A.starts fromB.results fromC.ranges fromD.differs fro

35、m解析：解析 此处的that，从句是修饰the actual break的定语从句。这里的break“中断”是由interruption引起的，故用results from“由引起”。start from“从开始”；range from“范围从”；differ from“不同于”。A.longerB.heavierC.quickerD.wider解析：解析 上文提到“你可能觉得你的干扰只是让他们停顿一两分钟”，但从之前提到的恢复时间来看，显然不止一两分钟，而是更长时间，故用longer。A.creativityB.productivityC.authorityD.sensitivity解析：解

36、析 干扰影响的是人们的“工作效率”，四个选项中只有productivity“生产效率”符合句意。creativity“创造力”在文中未提及；authority“权力”；sensitivity“敏感度”。A.influenceB.resultC.costD.feature解析：解析 根据后面提到的表示金额的数字可以判断这里选cost“损失”。Whether we want it or not we are all greedy 21 nature. From the moment we are born and to the last day of our life we 22 have an

37、unsatisfied hunger to 23 more than we have. Greed is a way for us to take care of our needs and to make sure that we have enough in life. If you do not 24 me then look at any child.

41、iving more to it then you will 39 how much more you will receive 40 .（分数：30.00）A.beyondB.byC.fromD.in解析：解析 by nature为固定搭配，意思是“天生地”，此处指“人的本性就是贪婪的”，故选B。A.consistentlyB.graduallyC.regularlyD.constantly解析：解析 根据空格前的内容“从出生到死亡”，以及后面的“有一种无法满足的欲望”，判断这里需要一个具有“一直持续”含义的词。constantly“不断地”符合句意。consistently“前后一致地”；

42、gradually“渐渐地”；regularly“定期地”。A.possessB.involveC.provideD.imagine解析：解析 四个选项能在意思上与空格前的an unsatisfied hunger(无法满足的欲望)呼应的只有possess“具有”，选A。involve“牵涉”；provide“提供”；imagine“想象”。A.confront withB.communicate withC.agree withD.collide with解析：解析 作者在这里举children的例子是为了让读者认同他的观点，这里用agree with“同意”。confront with“面

43、对”；communicate with“与沟通”；collide with“与相撞”。A.followB.fulfillC.adaptD.imitate解析：解析 空格处缺少一个动词，其宾语是前面的norms。选项中能在意思上与norms搭配的只有A和C，但adapt要与to搭配，故选follow。A.whenB.whetherC.howD.that解析：解析 根据空格之后的or，不难判断这里选whether。短语whether.or.意为“无论是还是”。A.WithB.ForC.AsD.To解析：解析 as意为“作为”，这里指“作为父母，我们告诉孩子”，选C。A.howeverB.simil

44、arlyC.soD.consequently解析：解析 前文讲父母告诉孩子要学会分享和慷慨，空格后则是含否定的does not come，两者之间含有转折关系，用however。A.dulyB.readilyC.suddenlyD.naturally解析：解析 上文谈到贪婪是与生俱来的，空格所在句依然在表达这层含义。空格处填入副词，修饰does not come。naturally意为“天生地”，该句表示“慷慨并不是与生俱来的”，故选D。duly“按时地”；readily“乐意地”。A.more efficientB.happierC.more gloomyD.richer解析：解析 从逗号后

45、的内容“感到生活更有意义”来推断，generous people(慷慨的人)应该是过得“更开心”，选B合适。more gloomy“更忧郁的”与文意相反；从逗号后的内容无法推测他们是否“更有效率”或“更富裕”。A.demandB.approveC.produceD.appreciate解析：解析 空格后的it指代前文提到的their life。选项中能与之搭配的只有appreciate“感激”，这里指慷慨的人更感激生活，选D。demand“要求”；approve“赞成”；produce“生产”。A.attachB.coordinateC.associateD.cooperate解析：解析 根据空格后的介词with，首先排除A，attach一般与to搭配，意思是“贴在上”。剩下的选项都可以与with搭配，其中coordinate.with意为“与配合”；associate.with“与联系”
