1、WhatistrueaboutthemarinecreaturesintheBeringSea?

A^Russiatriestosavetheseabystockingfewerfish.

B>Therearestillabundantmarinecreaturesthere.

C、Itwillsoonbestrippedofcommercialfish.

D^Therearetoomanyboatsbuttoofewfish.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：根據題干中的BeringSea定位到第2段第2句。該句末尾用于修飾

BeringSea的后置定語表明白令海峽現在仍然有abundantmarine,因此B正確。C

中的willsoon說的過于絕對了，原文只是有這種擔心，但沒有提到“什么時候”白

令海峽的魚都會被打光；D與第2段第2句中as引出的從句一模一樣，但該從句

講的是全世界范圍的普遍情況，而不是白令海峽的情況。

2、Bysayingthatpollackis"bottom-dwelling"creature,theauthormeansthat

pollack.

A^livesdeepdownintheseabed

B、isfundamentaltogoodhealth

C、isleastinlluencedbyhumans

D、islowdowninthefoodchain

標準答案：D

知識點解析：根據題干中的pollack和“bottom-dwelling”定位至力第3段。如果只看第

3段和第4段第1句，很容易誤選A,但只要看到第4段第2句中的higherupin

thefoodchain,就可以推斷pollack應該處在食物鏈的最底層。關于pollack處在食

物鏈的位置，從第4段最后一句的內容也可得到證實，因此，D才是正確答案。

3、Thepassagemainlytriestoremindustobeaware.

A^ofthevariousthreatstotheBeringSeanow

B、oftheimpactofcommercialactivitiesontheBeringSea

C^thatoverfishingwillendangerthewholeecosystem

D、thatitisessentialtoaccordcommercewithecosystem

標準答案：A

知識點解析：原文共有7段，前六段主要講白令海峽的過度捕撈情況，最后二段提

到了白令海峽facesthreatsthatoriginatethousandsofmilesaway。即海水受到污染和

海水溫度上漲。總結來看，本文主要講的是白令海峽面臨的各種威脅，而前六段的

“過度捕撈/經濟捕撈”只是其中一點，因此，最能全面概括原文所有內容的應為

Ao其他選項都忽略了最后一段的內容。

4、WhenTheDaVinciCodewasfirstpublished,Doubleday.

A、hopedthatitwouldbecomeahistoricpublication

B、onlyexpectedtosellnomorethan85,000copies

C>hadgreatconfidenceinthebookanditsauthor

D、announcedaconservativeprintingofthebook

標準答案：C

知識點解析：根據第1段和第2段第1句可知Doubleday對該書的作者及其作品充

滿信心。故本題應選C,D稍具干擾性，首段表明Doubleday對該書首次出版的數

量其實是充滿信心的，所以用“保守”形容這個數量不合適，因此D不正確。

5、DoubledayonlysellsthehardcoverTheDaVinciCodebecause.

A、theconsumersaresupposedtocontroltheirbudgets

B、thepriceofthepaperbacksistoolowforgreatprofits

C、thebookissopopularthatreadersdon'tmindtheprice

D、thefilmversionisexpectedtobemorepopularthanthebook

標準答案：C

知識點解析：根據題干中的hardcover定位到第4段最后一句。該句中同時提到了

hardcover和paperback兩種版本，通常前者較貴，后者較便宜，句中的sogood

that…表明連較貴的hardcover都賣得很好，所以Doubleday暫時沒想過要推出較便

宜的paperback版本，可.見，這本書很受歡迎，而讀者也并不介意精裝本的高價

格，C綜合了這些內容，故為本題答案。

6、Accordingtothelastparagraph,duringthetimeoftighteconomy,.

A、peoplewereeasilydistractedbyothermedia

B、TheDaVinciCodewasanexceptionalsuccess

C^literarynovelshadtofightagainstcommercialonesformarket

D、thepublichadnootherchoiceofentertainmentbutnonfictionworks

標準答案：B

知識點解析：末段首句中duringatimewhen…，when...暗示在經濟緊縮時期，書

籍的銷量都是不好的，故《達芬奇密碼》的暢銷是一個例外，B正確。A中的

competitionfromothermedia在原文中是與atighteconomy和election-yeartensions

并列的成分，這三點都是導致書市低迷的原因，可見，A并不是在tighteconomy

時必然發生的事。從原文末段首句只能推斷出文藝小說和商業小說都要掙扎求存，

兩者本身并非對立的關系，C中的fighlagainst不正確。

7、KweisiMfumewasabouttheeffectofthe"sweetvictory1'.

A、rational

B、arbitrary

C、ambiguous

D、convinced

標準答案：A

知識點解析：根據題干中的KweisiMfume定位到第2段。該段第2句的however

表明KweisiMFume從正反兩面分析了sweelviclory的影響，他的分析理性、全

面，因此，本題應選A,而同時也可以排除B（武斷的）。在該段中，KweisiMfume

的觀點鮮明，因此，C不正確；至于D.KweisiMfume在原文用的是If…的句式。

表示假設的條件句不可能顯示“確信”的態度。

8、WhathappenedtoHattieMcDanielafterherperfonnanceinGonewiththeWind?

A、ShewasalienatedbytheAfricanAmericans.

B、Shehadtoplaysimilarrolesinotherfilms.

C^Shebegantogiveupherprogressiveview.

D、Shewantedtochangeherstereotypedimage.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：根據題干中的HattieMcDaniel定位到第3段。該段末尾的similar,

stereotyped表明HattieMcDaniel在獲獎后，角色被定型了，因此。B為本題答案。

9、Inthepassage,a"bigot-fodder"mostprobablyreferstoapersonwhois.

A、unique

B、complicated

C、unimportant

D、simple

標準答案：D

知識點解析：根據題干中的bigol-fodder定位到第6段第I句。該句中的ralherthan

表明bigot-fodder的性格應該與前面的partgood,partbad相反，即bigot-fodder應

該是性格單一，不復雜的角色，可見，本題應選D。該句冒號后舉的幾個例子可能

會讓人覺得bigoi-fodder是電影中不重要的角色而選了C,但例子是用來說明前面

的觀點的.不能基于兒個例子就作出脫離前面觀點的推論.

10NAccordingtotheauthor,thedoubleOscarthisyear.

A、triggersthebattleonracisminfilmindustry

B、helpssettletheissueofracisminfilmindustry

C、verifiestheequalitybetweenracesinfilmindustry

D、disclosestheinequalitybetweenracesinfilmindustry

標準答案：C

知識點解析：根據題干中的doubleOscar定位到第6段最后一句。該句中的seallhe

contract字面意思為“在合同上蓋章”，引申為“確認”的意思，該句和上一句結合起

來，表明這一次的doubleOscar“證明”了Thatbattle...wassettled（電影圈種族之訶的

問題很早以前就已經解決了），現在各種族已平等，可見，本題應選C。另外，既

然問題已經解決了，A中的trigger和B中的helpsettle就不對了。

二、簡答題（本題共5題，每題7.0分，共5分。）

PassageOne

11、Whyhasn'tthefur-sealpopulationincreased?

標準答案：Becauseofoverfishingandanailingecosystem.

知識點解析：第4段以海狗、海獅和海鳥的數量說明本段第2句提到的“從食物鏈

上較高的層次可以看到過渡捕撈和病態的生態環境的跡象”，這就表明，過度捕撈

和病態的生態環境是導致海狗數量上不去的原因。

12、WhydoenvironmentalgroupsliketheWorldWildlifeFundurgestrongeraction?

標準答案：Toprotectthehabitatofanimalslivingonthebottom.

知識點解析：根據題干信息定位到第6段。該段最后兩句提到，很多拖網漁船拖拉

著漁網和其他工具穿梭在海床上，使得海底動物的棲息地遭到毀壞。雖然國際條約

對漁網的大小有限制，但是諸如世界野生動物基金會等環保團體還是建議采取更強

有力的措施，由此可見呼吁更有力的措施是為了保護海底動物的棲息地。

PassageTwo

13、WhydidAngelsandDemonsbegintosellwell?

標準答案：BecauseofthesuccessofTheDaVinciCode.

知識點解析：本題可先取據題干中的Brown'spreviousnovels定位到第6段。該段

開頭的Thanks表明，《達芬奇密碼》的巨大成功使得Brown之前創作的G說

的銷量水漲船高。

14、WhathelpsLangdonfindoutthecluestotheimportantsecret?

標準答案：LeonardodaVinci'sart.

知識點解析：倒數第三段提到，達芬奇的藝術作品《蒙娜麗莎》《巖間圣母》以及

《最后的晚餐》都指示著Langdon發現更多的線索。再結合前面提到館長死亡時

被放置得像達芬奇最著名的素描《維特魯威人》以及達芬奇喜歡把信息藏在他自己

的作品當中，由此可以得出，達芬奇的藝術作品在幫助尋找重要秘密的線索起到重

要作用。

PassageThree

15、Whoshouldbebetterrecognizedinthefilmindustry,accordingtothepassage?

標準答案：ActorsandactressesOfminoritygroups.

知識點解析：文章從DenzelWashington和HalleBerry兩位黑人演員獲得奧斯卡金

像獎開始，討論少數族裔演員在好萊塢的地位，直到第8段，SonnySkyhawk希望

更多的少數族裔的表演能得到認同，可見全文關注的就是“少數族裔的演員

B、theonewhohasdonewrongwillultimatelyapologizetoyou

C、youwillhavepowerovertheonewhohasdonewrongtoyou

D^youwillgraduallylosecontroloveryourmindandyourhealth

標準答案：D

知識點解析：題干的關鍵詞foralongtime是原文第3段第4句中onachronicbasis

的同義替換，由文中的eatingaway...ofmind和…immunesystem可知D符合題

意。

2、Theauthorthinkswhenoneforgives,.

B、hetrieshisbesttofbrgetthebadexperience

C、hedoesnotclingtothepastbutwelcomesthebrightsideoflife

D、hedoesnotcarryoutrevengebutremindshimselfoftheoffence

標準答案：C

知識點解析:C中的no〔clingtothepastbutwelcome...是第5段最后兩句中

releasingtheanger和focusingonthegoodpartsofyourlife的另一種說法，因此為正

確答案。

3、Theauthormostprobablywantsto.

A、informthereader

B、instructthereader

C^comparetwowaysoftreatinganger

D、focusontheadvantageofforgiving

標準答案：B

知識點解析：從文章的小標題a)、b)和末段首句和末句可以看出，作者列舉生氣的

缺點和原諒的優點，都是為了最終引導讀者對別人的傷害采取寬容的態度，因此，

本文的目的不是告訴讀者信息，而是教導讀者對待傷害應采取什么態度。由此可

見，B為本題答案。

4、Inallthethreeparts,whichparttellsthereaderthattoforgiveshowsone'sspiritual

virtue?

標準答案:Part(c).

知識點解析：最后一段中的strength,soulfuhicss,moral等詞都表明(c)點與“精

神”(spiritual)有關。而且該段多次提及forgiving,forgiveness,forgiveo

5^Themolarfoundinajarisactually.

A、thesymboloftheroyalfamily

B、oneoftheinternalorgans

C>oneofthemummy'steeth

D、thecoffininwhichthemummylay

標準答案：c

知識點露析：本題解題的關鍵是要注意第5段第1-3句中冠詞和代詞的運用，第5

段第1句中，冠詞a表明molar首次提到，第2句開頭的It和第3句開頭的冠詞

ihe表明il和iheloolh指的就是molar,由此可見，本題應選C。

6、OtherEgyptologistswouldmostlikelytoagreethat.

A、themummywasamemberofroyalfamily

B、Hatshepsutpossiblydiedoffataldiseases

C、DNAtestingisunreliable

D、Hatshcpsufsrelationsarenowheretofind

標準答案：A

知識點解析?：第8段最后一句中木乃伊的左手放在胸前\這表示死者生前是皇室成

員，因此，無論最終是否能證明這具木乃伊是否Hatshepsul,現在起碼能知道她為

皇室成員，因此A正確。第8段第2句提到那具木乃伊很可能患有糖尿病和肝

癌，這與B中的fataldiseases同義，但其他的埃及學家并不能確定這具木乃伊是不

是Hatshepsut,所以，即使那具木乃伊式的死于重病，也不等于Hapshepsut死于重

病，排除B；第9段的notcenain和第10段的cautious都表明埃及亭家對于

Hawass的研究結果抱懷疑的態度，但這并不等于DNA測試完全不可靠，C說得太

絕對：D與倒數第7段的內容相反。

7、HearingaboutHawass,identificationthemummyasHatshepsut,PaulEvansis

A^encouraged

B、cautious

C、arbitrary

D^proud

標準答案：B
