參考答案

1.B

2.B

3.C

4.B

5.Duringthe1960s．

6.B

7.A

8.Corn．

9.A

10.InNorthernEurope

11.Timeforthinking

12.A

13.Male-and-femalerelationshipchanged．

14.D

15.B

16.muchmuch解析：參見43題解析。顯然，此空處應為“太多的”。

17.fastfast解析：由上一句句意“不耐心代表了年輕的腦力工作者們的特點。”可知，本句“他們想…成名”中的空處應填“快速地”。

18.acrossacross解析：getacross意為“使(觀點等)被理解或接受，講清自己的意思”，此句意為“給他們講清巨大的成功不會輕易、快速地到來很重要。”

19.somesome解析：關鍵是注意and前后一致。“somerationaland…emotional”，前面說促使顧客購買的動機有很多，有的是理性的，有的卻是沖動。所以這里應該是some。故答案為some。

20.nono解析：本句話的意思是“那些趾高氣揚的人不可能是那些平易近人的人”。這是否定的意思，故答案為no。

21.butbut解析：這里表達的前后句意是一種轉折關系。前面說“hemayhavedreams．”而后面“hedoesnotallowthemtoblockhisknowledge…”的意思卻是“但是他也不會讓這些夢想阻擋自己對什么是現實的理解。”故答案為but。

22.betweenbetween解析：“…relation…actionsandtheirconsequences”意為“…行動和它們的結果…關系”，空處顯然缺“之間”。

23.airair解析：由前面的smog可知，此空處應填與smog相應的物質，又由后面的“hoversovercities”可知，此物質只能是“臟空氣”。

24.thatthat解析：此空后的內容為maintain的內容，即此空后的句子為maintain的賓語，應填一個可引導賓語從句的詞。

25.suchsuch解析：“poorposture，leaningtoo…tothedesk，using…”均是對characteristics的舉例說明，而舉例用英語說應為“suchas”。

26.D解析：由D中Smithadds，“Investment-wise，King’sCrossisagoodbet．Thereisabigrentalmarkethereandpriceswillgoup．Therearestillcheaperpropertiesavailable，onetotwobedroomflatsinVictorianconversions，orex—councilproperties．Butpeopleareholdingontothemfordearfifeinthehopetheywillgoupinvalue．Ifyoufindone，itisworthinvestingin．”可以看出在King’sCross投資將會物有所值。所以此處答案為D。

27.B解析：由短文第三段第一句“Incometaxesarethemainsourceoffederalrevenues．”。

28.B解析：由B中的disadvantage中“Althoughnotmuchwasteisproduced,itisvery，verydangerous.Itmustbesealedupandburiedformanyyearstoallowtheradioactivitytodieaway.”可知答案為B。

29.D解析：由D中的最后一段“andsoistodescribeitsimplyasamovieaboutgangsters．”可知。

30.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend,andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

31.C解析：由C中的第二段“Itisnowconsideredthecenterofindustry，transportation，commerceandfinanceinthemid-westarea．”可知答案為C。

32.A解析：由文章第二段“…intheThirdWorldtowardfamilysizeandadawningrealisationthatenvironmentaldegradation…”。

33.CC解析：由上下兩段看，只有C放在此處可以使上下文銜接，意思連貫。

34.AA解析：由此空的上下兩段可以得到答案。上段說的如何去看人的兩種方法，而后面的一段接著說的地點問題。所以這里的“dependingonwherethemeetingtakesplace.”符合句意，故應選A。

35.B解析：原文的第三段最后“Whattheydidnotknow…followedapattern—whatisreferredtoas”artificialgrammar“.Yetthereductionsinresponsetimeshowedthat…”說明了這種內在模式，也就是“artificialgrammar”，對于記憶的重要性。故應選B。

36.B解析：由B中的第二段最后幾句話“Millerisorderedtotakehissquadbehindenemylinesonadangerousmissiontofindandretrieveoneman：PrivateJamesRyan．”可知。

37.A解析：由A中的第二段“…toillustratehowenvironmentalqualitycanbeincludedformallyinmeasuresofnationalincome，socialwelfareandsustainability．”可知。

38.A解析：在第三段最后一句“…oneculture-basedproducthasbeenclearedformarketinginEurope．”里出現了“cleared”一詞。根據下文中“marketing”和讀者有關藥品上市前應該得到批準的常識，可以判斷出，該詞在本句中的意思是“得到官方的批準”。因此正確答案為A。

39.EE解析：第一段引出了人們對未來的擔心，認為老齡化將會帶來各種問題。第三段是對老齡化社會的肯定，認為這是文明發展的成果。“myth”一詞含有杜撰的意思。一些人的擔心是多余的。E起到承上啟下的作用。

40.B解析：書評二中最后幾句話提到了Stiglitz對RubinandSummers，Fischer，theNO.2officialanddefactochiefexecutiveoftheIMF的批評，“…theyhadtoomuchfaiththatmarketscouldtransform.poorcountriesovernight．Helabelsthesethreemenmarketfundamentalists”都可以看出題目中包含的信息。所以本題

41.C由全文可以看出，學生們對歷史研究其實沒有多大興趣。

42.BB第一段提到“…serveuphundredsofnewbuildingsthat．．．”。

43.C短文賞析

孩提時代的快樂是神奇的，無窮無盡的，但是到了青少年時代，快樂就稍稍變了樣子，種種煩惱開始出現，而成年之后，快樂就變得更加復雜，不再能夠簡單定義。作者認為，快樂應該被定義為享受的能力。我們應當能夠從一切中得到樂趣，看到自己的幸福所在。每個人都有不同的快樂之源，與他人閑聊、接聽電話、開快車等，都可能給不同的人帶來快樂的感覺。心理學家說追求快樂應該能夠放松，工作滿意。作者認為，擁有金錢并不一定會帶來快樂，快樂與否取決于個人對人生的態度和看待生活的方式，只有享受周圍的一切才能與快樂相會。

答案解析：

文章第二段講的是“Intheteenageyears”的事，故第三段順理成章應講“Inadulthood．．．”。

44.B短文賞析

過去的時代常常用某一種材料命名。未來的材料科學時代將迎來許多新的技術。新材料出現的關鍵在于研究者越來越能夠在分子層次上操縱材料。科學家制造了硬度更高的抗熱瓷器。同樣，塑料也經歷了轉變。高強度塑料被用來作為建筑材料，還出現了能夠發電的塑料，塑料回收再利用功能得以增強，而用塑料制成的化合物甚至被用于制造戰斗頭盔。由玻璃制成的電纜將電話訊號傳遞到全國各地。但是，新材料的影響只有制成產品才能夠被看到。因此，技術的商業化將決定一個國家未來的成敗。

答案解析:

由短文第一段最后一句“Exoticplastics，glassandceramicswillshapethefuturejustassurelyashavegeneticengineeringandcomputerscience．”可知，本文提到了三種新材料。

45.C由C中的howitworks中的第一條“Thiswasoriginallydevelopedinordertoprovideelectricityforsatellites，…．”可知答案為C。2021-2022年湖南省長沙市公共英語五級(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
