26、clothes, washing dishes is something 20 usually must be done every day. I believe that most people hate it as much as I do.（分数：40.00）A.inB.forC.atD.with解析：解析 介词搭配题。have a dislike for sth.：不喜欢(某事)。A.quicklyB.easilyC.singlyD.regularly解析：解析 语义衔接题。根据下句“so ironing a basket of laundry can take hours”(熨一筐衣

27、服需要几个小时的时间)可知，烫衣服无法很快(quickly)完成。regularly：定期地。A.materialB.fabricC.clothingD.cloth解析：解析 名词辨析题。clothing：衣物的总称，为不可数名词，a piece of clothing：一件衣服。material：材料；fabric：纤维，材质；cloth：布。A.needB.costC.spendD.take解析：解析 动词辨析题。这几个词均有“需要，花费”的意思。cost和take的主语均为事物，take的宾语多为花费的时间，而cost的宾语多为花费的金钱；spend的主语为人，宾语为花费的时间或金钱；n

28、eed表示“需要”，主语可以是人或物，如：The car needs repairing. 车子需要修理了。本句中谓语动词前的“can”为一种猜测的语气，因此不能选用need。A.asB.thatC.whichD.those解析：解析 语法关系题。逗号后面的句子为which引导的非限制性定语从句，表示前半句提到的内容。A.placeB.placingC.placedD.to have placed解析：解析 情态动词用法题。本句中need为情态动词，因此后面为动词原形。当need意为“需要”时，主语为物。A.obeyB.complyC.followD.observe解析：解析 固定搭配题。fo

29、llow directions：按照要求做事。A.rumbledB.greasedC.rippledD.wrinkled解析：解析 形容词辨析题。因为前文提到衣服烫好后要立即挂在衣架上，因此可知不这样做的结果是衣物会wrinkled(起皱)。crumbled：捏成碎屑的；greased：油腻的；rippled：起涟漪的，起波浪的。A.calls forB.calls onC.calls atD.calls up解析：解析 词组辨析题。call for：需要，要求；call on：号召，呼吁；call at：停靠，做短暂访问；call up：使人想起，动员。A.inB.atC.toD.for解析

30、：解析 固定搭配题。attention与介词to搭配，表示“对注意”。A.familyB.homeC.houseD.household解析：解析 名词辨析题。household job：家务工作。household可以是名词，但在这里是一个形容词，意为“与家庭的运行和管理有关的”，如：household appliances：家用电器。home主要指家庭成员在一起生活的地方，既可以指实实在在的家，也有抽象的家的含义；house主要指建筑物、住宅；family主要指家庭成员或者作为社会单位的家庭。A.denyB.claimC.insistD.doubt解析：解析 语义衔接题。后文谈到虽然我们有了

31、洗碗机等电器，但机洗永远不及手洗洗得干净，所以很多人还是自己动手洗碗。因此这里是先提出了一个观点，用claim(声称)一词较为合适。A.whenB.afterC.sinceD.though解析：解析 逻辑关系题。本句的主从句之间应该是因果关系，since表示“既然，因为”。由于从句中有“now”一词，因此when和after都不适用。A.suggestB.indicateC.contendD.argue解析：解析 语义关系题。根据上下文，本句表达的观点应该是人人都同意洗碗机洗的碗不如手洗的干净，而主语为“no one”，因此argue(反对)是正确的答案。suggest：提议；indicate

32、：暗示；contend：声称，主张。这三个词放在句中都表达了相反的意义。A.areB.wereC.doD.did解析：解析 语法关系题。时态上整篇都是现在时，而四个选项中只有do可以替代前面出现的“come out”。A.For this reasonB.In spite of thisC.For fear of thisD.In that case解析：解析 逻辑关系题。“机器洗得不干净”和“继续用手洗”之间应该是因果关系。in spite of his：尽管如此；for fear of this：由于害怕；in that case：在情况下，表示一种假设的情况，而本句并非一种假设的情况。A

33、.with doingB.doingC.doneD.to have done解析：解析 语法关系题。本句是一个“主+系+表”的结构，doing是现在分词做伴随状语。A.skillB.timeC.patienceD.technique解析：解析 语义衔接题。根据常识，wash和dry并不需要很多的技巧，同时因为句子前面提到的是energy(精力)，因此这里用patience(耐心)更为恰当。若选time一词，则前面不可为定冠词the。A.likeB.unlikeC.asD.not as解析：解析 逻辑关系与介词辨析题。根据原文可知，衣服不用每天洗，但碗必须天天洗，因此两者是不同的。此外，like

34、是介词，后面跟动名词；as表示“像一样”必须用作连词，后面不可跟动名词。A.thatB.whichC.asD.one解析：解析 语法关系题。something后面的从句为定语从句，而当定语从句的先行词是不定代词all, something, anything, everything, none, the one, little, much等时，引导词要用that而不用which。All parents push their kids at least a little.

39、ime, and money to push their child on to victory is almost always a sure sign 39 the line between encouragement and pressure has been 40 .（分数：30.00）A.cleanlyB.neatlyC.promptlyD.slowly解析：解析 语义衔接题。neat主要指井然有序的，没有多余或杂乱细碎的东西；clean主要表示事物的表面比较干净。本句表达了父母要求孩子有良好教养的意思，因此吃饭就应该eat neatly，表示吃干净，汤水食物不掉下来等。A.soB.

40、suchC.thatD.very解析：解析 词性辨析题。such为形容词，用以加强语气，常和名词连用，意为“如此的”，“这样的”，如：She is such a kind woman. 她是一个如此善良的女人。而so为副词，因此为She is so kind a woman.；that和very修饰形容词时也是副词，因此是：Shes very/that kind。A.atB.inC.fromD.with解析：解析 固定搭配题。from time to time：时而，不时。A.properB.appropriateC.suitableD.preferable解析：解析 形容词辨析题。prope

41、r：适合的，适当的，如：She wore proper clothes for the party. 她在晚会上的穿着很得体。appropriate：(时机、场合、对象)恰当的，如：This is an appropriate moment to raise the question. 在这种场合提这个问题很恰当；suitable：(对某个人群或目的是)适合的，相配的，强调合乎要求，没有矛盾或不协调之处，如：Jane is the most suitable person for the job. 简是这个工作的最佳人选；preferable：更合适，更可取的，存在比较的含义。A.a rewa

42、rdB.a prizeC.an implicationD.an incentive解析：解析 语义衔接题。本句中提到bonus(奖励)和treat(款待)是一种对孩子说“干得好!”和“接着干!”的手段，因此incentive(激励)是合适的选项。reward(奖励)和prize(奖品)无法体现出父母给予bonus及treat的目的；此外，父母的奖赏并没有implication(暗含的意义)。A.praisingB.commentingC.cheeringD.sponsoring解析：解析 动词辨析题。本句提到父母“at their events(在孩子的活动中)”给予他们鼓励，因此cheer(

43、欢呼，助威)是最恰当的选项。award：给奖励；comment：评价；sponsor：给予资助。A.toB.overC.thanD.above解析：解析 介词搭配题。have an advantage over sb.：比有优势。A.successB.strengthC.pushD.problem解析：解析 语义衔接题。前两段肯定了父母用奖励等方式激励孩子们做得更好，并帮助他们获得竞争优势。而本段则是批评某些父母对孩子有过高、不切实际的要求，从而对孩子造成压力。因此，本句是提出问题的主题句，应选problem一词。A.toB.forC.withD.towards解析：解析 固定搭配题。iden

44、tify with sth.：对有认同感。本句意为父母过于在意孩子的成功与否。A.makeB.meetC.giveD.live解析：解析 固定搭配题。live up to.：达到，满足。这里表示如果孩子未能达到父母设定的不切实际的标准，父母就会感到尴尬。A.stressB.tensionC.intensityD.strain解析：解析 名词辨析题。根据句意，作者想要表示的是父母的行为给孩子造成了不必要的压力(stress)，该词后面与介词on搭配。tension：紧张；intensity：强度；strain：拉力，紧绷。A.inabilityB.inferiorityC.timidityD.s

45、tupidity解析：解析 语义衔接题。后文中提到孩子长大后总认为自己不够好，觉得得不到父母的肯定和尊重，因此产生了自卑感(inferiority)。inability：无力，无能；timidity：胆怯；strain：拉紧，竭力，都与句意不符。A.to believeB.believingC.believedD.to be believing解析：解析 语法关系题。此处为believe的现在分词形式，作grow up的伴随状语。A.narrowB.straightC.clearD.fine解析：解析 语义衔接题。根据后文可见，作者想要表达的是“父母对孩子鼓励和给孩子压力这两者之间的界限还是很明确的”。fine在此的意义为“细微的，细小的”。A.whenB.whereC.thatD.which解析：解析 语法关系辨析题。w
