【答案】第1題:B
第2題:A
第3題:A
第4題:C
第5題:D
【解析】1.作者態度題。根據文章第二段,“…Acomputerizeduniversitycouldhavemanyadvantages,suchaseasyscheduling…”,可知作者一方面認為網絡大學存在很多優勢,比如課程安排等等。根據文章第三段,“YettheInternetUniversityposesdangers…”,作者認為網絡大學也有很多隱藏著的危險,所以優缺點都有體現。選項B符合題意。
2.細節理解題。根據文章第三段,“…marketedunderthebrandnameofafamousinstitution,andheavilyadvertised,mighteventuallycometodominatetheglobaleducationmarket…sucha“collegeeducationinabox”couldunderselltheofferingsofmanytraditionalbrickandmortarinstitutions,effectivelydrivingthemoutofbusinessandthrowingthousandsofcareeracademicsoutofwork…”,可知大學存在的危險包括由幾位明星教師編著的課程大肆宣揚后會主宰教育市場,并且降低實體教育的意義,使教職工失業等,文中并未提及互聯網課程的費用問題。選項A符合題意。
3.細節理解題。根據文章第五段第二句,“…insteadofreceivingprimarilytechnicaltrainingandbuildingtheirindividualcareers,universitystudentsandprofessorscouldfocustheirlearningandresearcheffortsonexistingproblemsintheirlocalcommunitiesandtheworld?”,可知大學的教育的根本使命就是基本的技術訓練和培養學生的職業技能,選項A符合題意。
4.細節理解題。根據文章第六段和第七段,“…Somewouldactasbrokers…Asecondgroup,mentors…Athirdnewroleforfaculty,andinGidley’sviewthemostchallengingandrewardingofall,wouldbeasmeaning-makers..”可知,未來大學教師的三種角色是經紀人、導師和決策制定者。根據文章第六段,“…charismaticsagesandpractitionersleadinggroupsofstudentscolleaguesincollaborativeeffortstofindspiritualaswellasrationalandtechnologicalsolutionstospecificreal-worldproblems.”,第三種教師角色是帶領著學生同事共同尋找解決某些特定現實世界問題的精神的以及合理的和技術性的方法。所以他們的任務更加艱巨了。選項C符合題意。
5.考查文體。縱觀全文,第一段進行了導入,簡短地介紹了《轉型中的大學》這個本書,接下來第二段和第三段分別闡述了網絡大學的優點和缺點,緊接著闡述了網絡大學可能給未來帶來的影響,以及教師們的角色的變化等等,所以本文對網絡大學進行了一系列的說明和闡述,為說明文,選項D符合題意。

【答案】第1題:A
第2題:D
第3題:B
第4題:C
第5題:D
【解析】1.細節事實題。根據文章第一段的OneJanuary,Ihadtoofficiateattwofuneralsonsuccessivedaysfor“fullofyears”astheBiblewouldsay;bothyieldedtothenormalwearingoutofthebodyafteralongandfulllife(那是在一月,我連著為兩位年邁的老人主持葬禮,正如圣經中所說,這兩位老人都是在經歷了漫長和完整的人生之后的身體正常耗盡)可知選項A“兩位老人終其天年”與文章意思相符。
2.判斷推理題。題目是問“作者需要為兩位老人辦理喪事的原因有可能是什么。選項A:因為作者想安慰這兩個家,B:因為作者是那個社區的公務人員,C:因為作者對死者懷有無限同情和D:因為作者是當地教堂的牧師,并且根據原文Ihadtoofficiateattwofuneralsonsuccessivedaysfor“fullofyears”as...中的關鍵詞officiate“主持宗教儀式”和onsuccessivedays“連續”可知極有可能的原因是選項D。
3.細節事實題。根據題干信息Peoplefeelguiltyforthedeathsoftheirloved定位至第三段:Priestsknowthatanytimethereisadeath,thesurvivorswillfeelguilty.,而后面緊接著說到原因:Becausethecourseofactiontheytookturnedoutbadly,theybelievedthattheoppositecourse—keepingMotherathome,postponingtheoperationthatwouldhaveturnedoutbetter(當他們的行動計劃引起了壞的結果時,他們就會相信如果當初采取不同的行動計劃,如將母親留在家里以及將計劃延期,那么結果就會好很多),由此可知人們通常會對至親的去世感到內疚是因為他們認為自己對于至親的去世負有貴任,即選項B。
4.語義題。第四段主要是對我們常常會感到自責的原因之一的介紹,根據這—段中的Thefirstisourpressingneedtobelievethattheworldmakessense,thatthereisacauseforeveryeffectandareasonforeverythingthathappens.“一方面是因為我們非常相信世界自有其道理,也就是說世間的一切都有某發生存在的原因”可知theworldmakessense意思是世間的一切都有其發生存在的原因,故答案選項為C。
5.細節事實題。根據文章最后一句話Veryoften,wedonotcompletelyoutgrowthatinfantilenotionthatourwishescausethingstohappen.“通常,我們都沒有從那個嬰兒時期形成的觀念中擺脫出來,即一切事件都發生都取決于我們自身的意念”,故答案選項為D“他們自身的意念是導致一切發生的根本原因”。
3.單選題
Hewas()fromthecompetitionbecausehehadnotcompliedwiththerules.
問題1選項
A.forbidden
B.barred
C.disqualified
D.excused
【答案】C
【解析】考查動詞詞義辨析。A:forbid“禁止,指禁止某人進入某地、或禁止某人用某物或做某事”;B:bar“禁止,指用障礙物阻止或禁止”;C:disqualify“取消……的資格”;D:excuse“原諒”。句意:他被禁止參加比賽,因為他沒有遵守比賽規則。結合句意,故C為正確答案。

【答案】第1題:A
第2題:B
第3題:B
第4題:C
第5題:A
【解析】1.事實細節題。根據第一段第四句Thoughtheseraidswereonasmallscale,Drakeachieveddramaticsuccess,addinggoldandsilvertoEngland’streasuryanddiminishingSpain’ssupremacy.(雖然這些突襲的規模很小,但是德雷克取得了引人注目的成功,為英格蘭國庫增加了黃金和白銀,削弱了西班牙的霸主地位。),supremacy的意思為“至高無上;最大權力;最高地位”,所以A選項“無限力量”正確。B選項“無限制的增長”,C選項“領土”和D選項“條約”不符合題意。因此A選項正確。
2.事實細節題。根據第二段第二句hemarshaled130sailingvesselsofalltypesandrecruitedmorethan19,000robustsoldiersand8,000sailors.(他指揮了130艘各類帆船,招募了19,000多名強壯的士兵和8,000多名水手。),robust的意思為“強壯的;強勁的”,在這里B選項“強壯的”正確。A選項“好戰的;軍事的”,C選項“技藝高超的”和D選項“膽小的”不符合題意。因此B選項正確。
3.推理判斷題。根據第二段第三句Althoughsomeofhisshipslackedgunsandotherslackedammunition,PhilipwasconvincedthathisAmadacouldwithstandanybattlewithEngland.(盡管他的一些船只缺少槍支和彈藥,但菲利普堅信他的無敵艦隊可以抵抗任何與英國的戰爭。),可知這支艦隊是用于軍事的,所以B選項“軍事的”正確。A選項“完整的”,C選項“獨立的”和D選項“孤立的”:根據第三段第一句ThemartialArmadasetsailfromLisbon,Portugal,onMay9,1588,butbadweatherforceditbacktoport.(1588年5月9日,“無敵艦隊”從葡萄牙里斯本起航,但惡劣的天氣迫使它返回港口。),這里沒有提到是否是整支艦隊參與行動,并且這些參與行動的船只一起行動,并沒有獨立和孤立,故錯誤。因此B選項正確。
4.事實細節題。根據第三段第四句ThetwobattlesleftSpainvulnerable,havinglostseveralshipsandwithitsammunitiondepleted.(這兩場戰役使西班牙變得脆弱不堪,損失了幾艘戰艦,也耗盡了彈藥。),vulnerable意思為“易受攻擊的”,所以C選項“易受攻擊”正確,A選項“接受改變”,B選項“大獲全勝”和D選項“戰敗”不符合題意。因此C選項正確。
5.事實細節題。根據第三段倒數第二句Blockedononeside,theSpanishshipscouldonlydriftawaytheircrewsinpanicanddisorder.(西班牙船只被堵在一邊,船員們只能在恐慌和混亂中漂流。),Blocked意思為“封鎖”,所以A選項“封鎖”正確。B選項“破壞”,C選項“單獨的”和D選項“包圍的”不符合題意。因此A選項正確。
5.翻譯題
假如預期實際油價的上漲幅度將超過替代資產的回報率,生產者會把石油留在地下不開采。因此決定當前價格的,是預期的未來價格。最重要的推動因素是新興國家(尤其是中國)需求的預期增長情況,以及對替代能源供應的擔憂。中國經濟的迅速增長及其資源高度密集型的增長方式,是最重要的因素。

)experimentalresultstoflirthertheirowncareers.
問題1選項
A.reinforced
B.validated
C.exterminated
D.fabricated
【答案】D
【解析】考查動詞詞義辨析。reinforce“加強”;validate“證實;使生效”;exterminate“根除”;fabricate“制造;捏造”。句意:科學家的原始聲譽:即作為對真理進行無私追求的信徒已被近來的證據連累,該證據表明一些科學家為了促進自己的職業生涯發展而故意捏造實驗結果。由compromised與experimentalresults可知“捏造”符合語境,故D項正確。

【答案】【參考譯文】世界對香港的評價很高,有關香港的溢美之詞不勝枚舉。香港在國際上最堅定的支持者是那些很了解它的人,和那些自香港回歸以來踏足香港的外地朋友。人們普遍認為,香港與中國大陸毗鄰的地理位置以及香港商界的經商經驗對香港來說都是巨大的優勢。如果香港商界想要充分利用那些優勢,那么必須快速地行動起來。
香港面臨的另一個挑戰是,在面對看似高昂的商業和生活成本時,需要認識到更好地宣傳其所提供的重要附加值的必要性。香港人,以及他們努力工作和擁有創業精神的聲譽被看成是香港最主要的資產之一。然而,香港商界的一些人擔心,政府現在沒有采取足夠的措施去維持高水平的英語語言能力,尤其是進入職場的年輕人的英語能力。

第4題:A
第5題:D
【解析】26.觀點態度題。根據“…butmoreoftenweareleftwithdry-as-dustcliche.(但更常見的情況是,我們只剩下枯燥無味的陳詞濫調)”“Lastwordsareforfoolswhohaven’tsaidenough(遺言是留給那些話還不夠多的傻瓜們的)”即可得出本題答案。
27.
事實細節題。根據題干關鍵詞“Francisco‘Pancho’Villa”,可將信息點定位至原文第二段,根據“Admittedly,it’snotexactlyfairtoexpectdeepinsightsintolife’smysterieswhenthedyingclearlyhaveotherthingsontheirminds—hell,forinstance,orunspeakablepain.(誠然,將死亡的人心里顯然還有其他事情——比如地獄,或者難以言喻的痛苦——時,期望對生命的奧秘有深刻的洞見是不公平的。)”即可得出本題答案。
28.
細節推斷題。根據題干關鍵字“Byron,GoetheandWilde”,可將信息點定位至原文第二段第五到第六句。根據“Byroncouldn’tbebotheredtoworkupadecentrhyme:“NowIshallgotosleep.Goodnight.”(拜倫不厭其煩地寫了一首優美的詩:“現在我要睡覺了。晚安。”)”“Goethe’slastwordweresodullbiographershavebeenobligedtoeditcreatively(歌德的臨終遺言如此乏味,傳記作家不得不創造性地編輯)”,即可推斷得出本題答案。
