　　答案與題解：

　　1. A 這個(gè)句子的意思是說，最初的人類文明出現(xiàn)于水在周圍的環(huán)境中起著重要作用的地方。所以要用where引導(dǎo)一個(gè)表示地點(diǎn)的狀語叢集。又如：The young people should go where the country needs them the most.

　　2. C 在英語中，表示“對(duì)……的挑戰(zhàn)”的意思要用 a challenge to … 。

　　3. D 這個(gè)句子的主語是 the Babylonians，謂語是后面的invented laws … �？梢�，都好后面的成分要做補(bǔ)充說明用。根據(jù)已有的信息，我們可以推出這里who是正確的，它同后面的部分組成一個(gè)非限制性的定語從句，修飾主語。注意，that雖然也可以引導(dǎo)定語從句，但它不能引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句。

　　4. D 這里只能填regulating，該詞同后面的短語構(gòu)成現(xiàn)在分詞短語，修飾上文的laws。整個(gè)名詞短語的意識(shí)是“管理用水的法律”。

　　5. B 當(dāng)一個(gè)名詞修飾另一個(gè)名詞時(shí)，該名詞往往用其單數(shù)形式(當(dāng)然并非總是如此，下面這樣的句子也是有人說的：We had a two weeks holiday.)。根據(jù)這一原則，1000-后接mile,像上文的 the 365-day就是遵循了這一原則。又如： a four-hour ride，a twenty-mile trip ,a five-room house, a six-storey building。

　　6. A remain in use 表示仍然在使用。 in use 是“在使用”的意思。又如：The textbook is no longer in use. If this is not in use, I’d like to borrow it.

　　7. B ancient 既是形容詞也是名詞，the ancients 尤指古代文明的人。

　　8. A 前文有so，這里應(yīng)該填入that，that引導(dǎo)的小句表示一種結(jié)果。又如：The weather was so bad that the children stayed indoors the whole day.

　　9. B death 是可數(shù)名詞，也是不可數(shù)名詞。作可數(shù)名詞時(shí)，是指某種類型的死(如：He died a natural death.)也可指死了多少人。 damage 是不可數(shù)名詞，它的復(fù)數(shù)形式 damages 主要用在法律領(lǐng)域，指損害賠償。如：The court ordered him to pay $1,000 damages to the person he had hurt. ruin 是不可數(shù)名詞。可數(shù)形式ruins 常指“遺跡”、“廢墟”等，如： The majestic ruins of Rome impressed her immensely.可以看出，在這三個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有deaths 是合適的。 cause 是使役動(dòng)詞，可以說“… it caused a million people to die.”但不可以說*“… it caused a million people.”所以填入people是錯(cuò)誤的。

　　10. D 正確的答案是 civilization，意思是“印度河谷的人類文明”。

　　11. C 量詞 many, a lot of, lots of 和much是一個(gè)連續(xù)統(tǒng)一體。具體地說，many只修飾可數(shù)名詞，much是、只修飾不可數(shù)名詞，而a lot of 和lots of 處于兩者之間，既可限定可數(shù)名詞，也可限定不可數(shù)名詞。lots of 比 a lot of 在口氣上更隨便些。下面是一些具體的用 a lot of 和lots of 的例子：I remember a lot of things. / A lot of our land is used to grow crops for export. / There are lots of things I could do. / I want lots of food. 英語中沒有l(wèi)ot of 和 a lots of 這樣的兩次， land在此處是不可數(shù)名詞，因此，唯一合適的選擇是much。

　　12. B 正確的答案是填入as ，此處的as 引導(dǎo)的是表示方式的狀語從句，整個(gè)句子的意思是說“今天，水就像它一直控制人類一樣仍然在控制著人類”。由于原文前后兩個(gè)句子之間沒有一種因果關(guān)系，所以填入for 或because 都是不對(duì)的。而whereas 一詞通常表示對(duì)比關(guān)系，如：The boys are singing whereas the girls are dancing.所以填入這個(gè)詞在語義上是不合適的。

　　13. A 這個(gè)句子的意思是說，水的存在決定著人們選擇安家建城的位置。Govern 和control都有“控制”和“支配”的意思。Govern可以是人的支配，也可以使自然法則或自然力量的控制或支配。所以，govern是一個(gè)合適的詞。lead的意思是“引導(dǎo);領(lǐng)導(dǎo)”。Influence的意思是“影響”。

　　14. C 如(9)中所說，cause是使役動(dòng)詞，只說“… can cause man or his herbs or his crops ”句子不完整。Violate一詞的后面可以跟 a rule, a law，但不能說是man。Damage一詞的后面常跟物質(zhì)的東西，如a house, a village, crops等，也不能接man 。所以只有kill一詞是正確的選擇。注意 kill可以跟“活著的東西”，所以kill his crops 在語義上完全成立。又如：The cold weather has killed the flowers.

　　15. D link 一詞可跟to 搭配，又如：The bridge links this city to that village.

　　An Early Form of Jazz Music

　　Music comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own. At the turn of the last century, ____1 jazz was born , America had no prominent ____2 of its own. No one knows exactly when was invented or by whom. But it began to be ____3____ in the early 1890s. Jazz is America's contribution to

　　____4_____ music. In contrast to classical music, which __5__ formal European traditions, jazz is spontaneous and free in form1. It bubbles with energy, __6__ the moods, interests, and emotions of the people. In the' 1920s jazz __7__ like America. And so it does today. The __8__ of the music are as interesting as the music itself. American Negroes, or blacks, as they are called today, were the jazz pioneers. They were brought to the Southern states __9__ slaves. They were sold to plantation owners and forced to work long hours. When a Negro died his friends and relatives __ 10 ___ a procession to carry to body to the cemetery. In New Orleans, a band often accompanied the 11 . On the way to the cemetery the band played slow, solemn music, suited to the occasion. __12__ on the way home the mood changed. Spirits lifted. Death had removed one of their number2, but the living were glad to be 13__. The band played 14 music, improvising on both the harmony and the melody of the tunes3 15 __ at the funeral. This music made everyone want to dance. It was an early form of jazz.

　　詞匯：

　　Jazz [d?æz] n. 爵士樂 spontaneous [sp?n'teinj?s,-ni?s] adj.自發(fā)的

　　bubble ['b?bl] v. 充溢 Negro ['ni:ɡr?u] n.黑人

　　cemetery ['semitri] n.公墓 improvise ['impr?vaiz] v. 即興

　　注釋：

　　1. jazz is spontaneous and free in form 爵士樂是自發(fā)的，不拘形式

　　2. Death had removed one of their number 死亡帶走了他們中的一員，number這里是(人或單位的)總和、全體

　　3. …improvising on both the harmony and the melody of the tunes 根據(jù)曲調(diào)的和聲和旋律即興演奏

　　練習(xí)：

　　1. A) while B) when C) since D) as

　　2. A) music B) songs C) melodies D) tunes

　　3. A) listened B) noticed C) heard D) found

　　4. A) classical B) sacred C) popular D) serious

　　12. A)Furthermore B)Similarly C)But D)Therefore

　　13. A)live B) alive C)life D)there

　　14. A)sad B)solemn C)happy D)funeral

　　15. A)sung B)showed C)played D)expressed

　　答案與題解：

　　1. B when jazz was born 是定語從句，修飾at the turn of the last century, 所以這里需要填入的是一個(gè)引導(dǎo)定語從句的關(guān)聯(lián)副詞，只有when具有這一功能。

　　2. A 當(dāng)時(shí)美國還沒有明顯屬于自己的音樂，其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)的詞義都十分具體，美國不可能沒有。

　　3. C 爵士是音樂，所以noticed 和 found 都不合適，listen 是不及物動(dòng)詞，如果要用，也應(yīng)該有個(gè)to，而這里是‘聽到’，不是‘聽著’的意思，所以應(yīng)該用heard。

　　4. C 爵士樂不屬于古典音樂，也不屬于嚴(yán)肅音樂或圣樂，只可能是流行音樂。

　　5. B 古典音樂發(fā)端于歐洲，所以它遵循的是歐洲傳統(tǒng)。

　　6. C 從跟后面這幾個(gè)詞moods, interests, emotions 的搭配考錄，只能選expressing

　　7. A 爵士是音樂，是有聲音的，所以只能選sounded, 在二十世紀(jì)二十年代，爵士樂聽上去就像當(dāng)時(shí)的美國。

　　8. D 下面要講的是有關(guān)爵士樂的起源，所以只能找origins，其他選項(xiàng)的詞義都不對(duì)。

　　9. C 黑人是作為奴隸被帶到南方各州來的。

　　10. B 他們自發(fā)形成一支隊(duì)伍，只能說form a procession, 其他三個(gè)詞的搭配都不對(duì)。11. C 根據(jù)前一句很容易就可以判斷應(yīng)該選 procession。

　　12. C 這句和前一句形成對(duì)比，所以應(yīng)該選But。

　　13. B 與‘死’相對(duì)的是‘還活著’，英語就是alive。

　　14. C 可以想見，在回家路上他們演奏的音樂一定是比較輕快的。所以選happy,另外三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都和happy的意義相悖。

　　15. C 能和 tunes搭配的只有 sung和played兩個(gè)，但是上文中提到在新奧爾良葬禮上總有一個(gè)樂隊(duì)在演奏，所以這里應(yīng)該選 played 而不是 sung。

　　The Ideal Husband

　　In the study by Daniel Kruger at the US's University of Michigan, 854 subjects viewed a series of ___3____ head shots that had been digitally changed to exaggerate or minimize masculine. traits2 They then ____ 4____ questions about how they expected the men in the photos to behave.

　　Most participants said that those with more masculine features were ____5____ to be risky, competitive, and more apt to fight, challenge bosses, cheat on spouses and put less effort into parenting. Those with more feminine ___6___ were seen as good parents and husbands, hard workers and emotionally supportive mates.

　　But, despite all the negative characteristics, when asked who they would choose for a short-term relationship, women selected the more masculine

　　___7___ men. Brad and George, both chiseled jaws and well-defined brows, then would be good for a ___8____ romance, not for something longer.

　　The study was published in the December issue of the US journal Personal Relationships.

　　Kruger said that from an evolutionary perspective, this ___9___ sense. The key is testosterone, the hormone responsible ___10___ the development of masculine facial features and other sexual characteristics. It has been found to affect the body's ability to fight disease: men with high levels of the hormone are typically ___11___ and healthy - traits women want to pass on to their children.

　　However, increased testosterone has also been linked to ___12___ and violence in relationships. So, these men ___13___ produce high quality offspring, but they don't always make great parents or faithful mates, Kruger says.

　　The scientific community3 have ___ 14____ skepticism toward physiognomy, which links facial characteristics to certain behavioral traits. But Kruger argues that the research is a valuable tool for understanding mating strategies. And, of course, for explaining why Tony Leung and Takeshi Kanesshiro have millions of female ___15___ . It might have to do with their genes. Or something to do with ours.

　　14. A) shown B) told C) stated D) said

　　15. A) spouses B) fans C) partners D) mates

　　答案與題解：

　　1. B 這四個(gè)詞的意思是：make:做;judge:判斷; date:約會(huì);meet:見面。本文的主題是講女人找伴侶。從所在句子的表示方式的介詞短語 by how masculine their features are(根據(jù)他們男性特征的情況)，選擇judge在語義上比較一致。

　　2. C 前后兩個(gè)小句表達(dá)的是一種對(duì)比，因此用while是對(duì)的。

　　3. D female: 女性的;beautiful:漂亮的;attractive: 吸引人的;male:男性的。該提問的是：854個(gè)調(diào)查對(duì)象看了一系列什么樣的頭部鏡頭?在第一題的題解中我們說到，本文的主題是講女人找伴侶，同時(shí)也說到女人是根據(jù)男性的特征來選擇配偶的。因此在這四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選male是對(duì)的。

　　4. A answer: 回答; ask: 問;construct: 構(gòu)造;build: 建造。 該提問的是：這854個(gè)調(diào)查對(duì)象看完一系列的男性的頭部鏡頭后還要做什么?顯然，應(yīng)該是回答問題而不是提問題。因此選answered 是對(duì)的。

　　5. A likely: 可能的;possible:可能的;probable:可能的; necessary: 必然的。合適的選項(xiàng)是likely。其它的選項(xiàng)填入后生成的都是錯(cuò)誤的句子。

　　6. D body: 軀體; hand: 手;arm:手臂; face:臉。由于調(diào)查對(duì)象看的是男士的頭部，因此選face是對(duì)的。

　　7. C seem:好像;appear:出現(xiàn);look:看上去;pretend: 假裝。我們可以說： These men look very masculine.這些男人看上去非常男性。也可以說these masculine looking men。因此用looking 是對(duì)的。

　　8. B fast:快;brief:短暫;quick:快;swift: 快。這里有三個(gè)表示“快”的英文詞，肯定不是合適的選項(xiàng)。另外，緊隨其后的短語是重復(fù)，其中有l(wèi)onger(更長一點(diǎn))這個(gè)詞，這就提醒我們應(yīng)該用brief這個(gè)詞。

　　9. A make:制造; cause:使得;do:干; form: 形成。make senses 是“說得通的意思，是固定的用法。”

　　10. C 這四個(gè)都是介詞。responsible 后面跟for。

　　11. D normal:正常的; ordinary:普通的;weak:弱;strong:強(qiáng)。And是個(gè)并立詞。主意并立詞要求所銜接的詞、詞組或句子在語義上能匹配�？梢钥闯�"strong and healthy"是匹配的，但是"weak and healthy" 就不匹配。

　　12. D 這事同一個(gè)詞表現(xiàn)出的不同形態(tài)變化。Link后面的to 是介詞to 而不是不定式to, 因此須用cheating。

　　13. B must:必須;might:可能;have to: 必須; should: 應(yīng)該。女人根據(jù)男人的特征選擇伴侶這只是一個(gè)因素，因此下結(jié)論應(yīng)該留有余地，用 might是比較合適的。

　　14. A show:顯出; tell: 告訴; state: 陳述; say: 說。除 shown 之外, told、stated 或said 填入后生成的句子都是錯(cuò)的。

　　15. B spouse:配偶; fan:狂熱仰慕者;partner:配偶; mate:伴侶。我們的世界知識(shí)告訴我們，任何人都不可能有數(shù)百萬的配偶，所以只有fans是合適的選擇。
