A.define
B.mark
C.identify

define意为“定义,解释”,mark意为“标志,做标记于”,identify意为“识别;鉴别”,specify意为“指定,详细说明”。

结合本题语境,选项中只有mark与a significant transition 符合上下文意思搭配,意为“标志着一个重大转折”,故只有B选项符合题意。

C.unconvincing
D.unceasing

解析:本题考查形容词语义搭配。

四个选项皆为以un-(表示否定)为前缀的动名词形式,但语义却完全不同,unavailing意为“无效的;徒劳的;无益的;无用的”,unassuming意为“谦逊的,不出风头的”,unconvincing意为“不足以令人相信的”,unceasing意为“不断的,不停的”。

结合本题上下文,只有unceasing 能修饰buzz,意为“不断的嗡嗡声”,故只有D选项符合题意。

四个选项均以a开头,均为贬义词,abandonment意为“放弃;放纵”,absurdity意为“荒谬;谬论;荒谬的言行”,accident意为“事故;意外”,aggression意为“侵略;进攻;侵犯”。

正确答案:D
解析:本题考查动词词义辨析。

四个选项中的词较为常见,考生需对此类词加强记忆。

由an attempt to…two different tendencies(试图……两种不同倾向),以及后半句中的although…they might seem inconsistent(尽管……它们似乎不一致)可知,harmonize最符合句意,故选D。

A.unrest
B.unease

四个选项,vault意为“跳跃;撑杆跳过”,bounce意为“弹跳;弹起,反跳;弹回”,attack意为“攻击;抨击”,hurdle意为“克服;跳过”。

四个选项均以ex-开头,且意思有相近之处,容易混淆,考生作答时应仔细斟酌。

excursion意为“偏移;远足;短途旅行”,exploration意为“探测;探究”,expedition意为“远征;探险队”,experiment意为“实验;试验;尝试”。

本题题干中缺乏主语,结合句意,只有expedition符合上下文意思,故选C。

A.testimony
B.announcement
C.indictment
D.oath
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查名词意义辨析。

四个选项中的单词均与法律诉讼相关,但意义各不相同。

testimony意为“证词,证言;证据”,announcement意为“公告;宣告;发表;通告”,indictment意为“起诉书;控告”,oath意为“誓言,誓约;诅咒,咒骂”。

结合题干后半部分大意“帮助该市跟上诉讼程序,并彰显正在转动着的正义车轮”来看,开头部分应是testimony与key搭配,意为“重要的证词”,故选A。

容易造成混淆。

archive意为“档案馆;档案文件”,record意为“档案;履历;唱片;最高记录”,file意为“文件;档案;文件夹”,literature意为“文学;文献;文艺;著作”。

根据本题语境,literature最符合上下文意思,an extensive literature on agriculture意为“大量农业方面的文献”,故选D。

A.influential
B.internal
C.intelligent
D.interior
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查形式相近的形容词的语义辨析与词语搭配。

四个选项的单词均以前缀in-开头,但四个单词的意思各有侧重。

influential意为“有影响的;有势力的”,internal意为“内部的;里面的;体内的”,intelligent意为“智能的;聪明的;理解力强的”,interior意为“内部的;本质的;国内的”。

结合本题语境,和后半部分用到的leaked to,可推测应是internal与police report搭配最符合本题题意,故选B。

17.Men and women should limit their alcohol______to less than a bottle and a half of wine three days a week to minimize health risks.

较为常见,recommend意为“推荐,建议;介绍;劝告”,require意为“需要;要求;命令”,recognize意为“确认;认出;识别”,relate意为“涉及;有联系”。

A.conspicuous
B.contentious
C.contemptuous
D.controversial

conspicuous意为“显著的;显而易见的”,contentious 意为“诉讼的;有异议的;有争论的”,contemptuous意为“轻蔑的;侮辱的”,controversial意为“有争议的;有争论的”。

因为前半句假设“侵略和暴力是人类的组成部分”,所以当一个社会“缺少暴力行为”时,会引人注目,故conspicuous 最符合句意。

20.Instead of taking center stage, the leader of European soccer’s ruling organization was ______under the terms of his provisional 90-day FIFA suspension that forbid him from any involvement in the sport.
A.blemished

SECTION 2 V ocabularly ReplacementThis section consists of 15 sentences; in each sentence one word or phrase is given in the brackets.

Choose the word or phrase that can replace the part without causing any grammatical error or changing the basic meaning of the sentence. There is only ONE right answer.
21.The degree of a beach’s downward slope depends on its composition of deposits as well as on the action of waves across its surface.
A.sediments
B.segments
C.substances
D.sources
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查形近词辨析。

四个选项均为以s开头的复数名词,A选项意为“沉积物;沉淀物”,B选项意为“环节;部分;段落”,C选项意为“物质,材料;实质,内容”,D选项意为“来源,产地”,选项之间的意义无交叉。

题干替换词意为“沉淀物”,语句中its指代beach,沙滩的构成应该是某种物质,因此可以排除完全无关的B、D选项,再按照沙滩、坡度、海浪冲刷等提示的语境选定答案为A。

22.The American dancer Loie Fuller used incense to create special effects during her performances.
A.prop
B.monologue
C.narration
D.scent
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查名词辨析。

题干句描述了一种表演的场景,关键提示信息有dancer,create,special effects,performances等。

A选项意为“支撑物;支柱;后盾”,B选项意为“长篇大论;独白”,C选项意为“叙述,故事”,D选项意为“香味;嗅觉;气味”。

题干替换词意为“香,焚香时的烟”。

从词语搭配的角度出发,B选项也可能是正确答案,但若对艺术略有了解,就知道跳舞时用独白做特效的可能性非常小,而声光影等才是常见的特效手段。

23.One kind of female butterfly mates only once in its life, and then it closes its wings to avoid “harassment” when pursued by persistent males.
A.approach
B.molestation
C.injury
D.harm
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查近义词辨析。

A选项意为“方法;途径;接近”,B选项意为“折磨;骚扰,干扰,调戏”,C选项意为“伤害;损害;受伤处”,D选项意为“危害;损害”。

题干替换词意为“骚扰”。

本题抓住题干并列句关系是解题关键,前面讲mates(交配),后面讲then…avoid…(之后……避免……),前后讲的都是动物求偶,显然C、D选项过于严重,不符合题意。

24.Although Tom is too ill to live alone, he is a headstrong man and obstinately refuses to move into a nursing home.
A.strong
B.capricious
C.emotional
D.sloppy
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“强大的,强健的”,B选项意为“任性的,变化无常的”,C选项意为“易动感情的,感情脆弱的”,D选项意为“懒散的,草率的”。

题干替换词意为“刚愎自用的,任性的”。

A选项最有可能被误选,但病重的情况下不接受看护,与强大与否无关,D选项的语义明显与too ill…refuses…无关,C选项可能对某些病人成立,但根据although...,即可排除。

25.Unless you want your stomach lining to be eaten away, stick to a bland diet.
A.skittish
B.diversified
C.mild
D.nutritious
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“易激动的”,B选项意为“多样化的”,C选项意为“轻微的;温柔的;温暖的”,D选项意为“有营养的;滋养的”。

题干替换词意为“清淡的”。

原句暗示需要保养身体,考生易排除A选项,但抓住结构unless...stomach lining...eaten away(尽管lining可能是生词,但可以将stomach lining看成身体某器官),并可推测eaten away为一种损坏,进一步推出题干语义不是保证饮食多样化也不是保证营养吸收,而是保证不吃使胃部受损的饮食,故C选项最接近原意。

26.Biofuel is neither a cure nor a pariah, but like all technologies, it represents both opportunities and challenges.
A.treat
B.panacea
C.methodology
D.solution
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“招待,款待;治疗”,B选项意为“灵丹妙药”,C选项意为“方法论,方法学”,D选项意为“解决方案,处理手段”。

题干替换词意为“解决方案”。

本题要注意几处容易混淆的地方,treat和cure在医学上相关,前者是治疗,后者是治愈。

D选项需考虑搭配,且和B选项有着程度上的差异,详见拓展。

27.Central Park, with its streams and vast greenery, seems bucolic; however, one is quickly reminded that the park is in the middle of a major metropolis.
A.cheerful
B.jubilant
C.rural
D.tranquil
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“令人愉快的;欢乐的,高兴的”,B选项意为“喜气洋洋的;欢呼的:开怀”,C选项意为“乡下的,农村的;田园的;地方的”,D选项意为“安静的;宁静的”。

题干替换词意为“乡村的;乡村生活的;田园的”。

本题描述中央公园的景色,并使用系表结构中的替换词bucolic来进行描述,这种描述和后面的“…however…middle…metropolis”形成对比,通过对比,C选项最符合语义。

28.The mayor is ideologically consistent. His long-term commitment to education reform, for example, is not a sign of fickleness.
A.coolness
B.carefulness
C.calmness
D.capriciousness
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

四个选项均以-ness名词后缀结尾。

A、B、C选项均为熟词,A选项意为“冷静;冷淡”,B选项意为“仔细,慎重”,C选项意为“平静,冷静”,D选项意为“反复无常;善变”。

题干替换词意为“变化无常;善变”。

本题由两个简单句构成,但分析语义可知,前句的…consistent和后句的long-term…是观点和例证的关系,再结合not a sign of,可推知替换词大意为“非长期的”。

只有D选项符合替换词词义。

29.Under the attack of its enemies from all sides, the empire was about to crumble.
A.disintegrate
B.disembark
C.disgrace
D.disengage
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查形近词辨析。

题干替换词意为“崩溃”,故选A。

30.Old photos of Lisa suggest that she was a sullen child who seemed to wear a permanent frown.
A.sad
B.screwy
C.surly
D.snobbish
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“悲伤的”,B选项意为“古怪的,荒唐的”,C选项意为“脾气不好的,态度粗暴的”,D选项意为“势利眼的,恃才傲物的”。

题干替换词意为“闷闷不乐的,缄默的”。

从句描述的惯常行为一定和前文对先行词的定性(sullen)有关,因此需从后文的“总是皱眉”这一行为判断前文所说的性格。

A选项常修饰消息、情绪等,B、D选项可以轻易排除。

31.Despite her relaxed style, Ms. Flagen is a canny businesswoman who knows how to aggressively market her brand.
A.thrifty
B.shrewd
C.cunning
D.amicable
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查近义词辨析。

A选项意为“节俭的;节约的”,B选项意为“精明的;敏锐的”,C选项意为“狡猾的,奸诈的”,D选项意为“友好的,友善的,温和的”。

题干替换词意为“精明,狡猾”,多用在商业和政治领域。

从businesswoman和后面的定语从句可以推断,本题的语义和商人的特性有关,同时结合despite her relaxed style,可排除A和D选项。

此外,推销自己的品牌是正常的商业行为,是一种专业且有上进心的形象,不是狡猾奸诈,可以排除较易混淆的C选项。

32.After people began to make the transition from gathering food to producing food, human societies followed markedly disparate courses; some adopted herding while others took to farming.
A.distinctive
B.diverse
C.discretionary
D.diverting
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查形近词辨析。

A选项意为“独特的,有特色的;有区别的”,B选项意为“不同的,多种多样的;变化多的;形形色色的”,C选项意为“任意的;自由决定的”,D选项意为“有趣的,令人快乐的”。

题干替换词意为“迥然不同的”。

注意句中的分号,可表示前后句之间的密切关系。

再观察替换词后的courses(道路)为复数,分号后正好是这些道路的详述(some…,others…),可以推断得出替换部分的语义应该为“不同的,相左的”,只有B选项符合条件。

33.If researchers can determine exactly what is wrong with people who suffer from this condition, they may be able to suggest treatments that could relieve the effects of the damage.
A.mitigate
B.modify
C.mend
D.masticate
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“使缓和;使平息”,B选项意为“修饰;改变,减轻”,C选项意为“修补;改正”,D选项意为“咀嚼;粉碎,磨烂”。

题干替换词意为“缓和;减轻;使解脱”。

本题要注意替换动词与后面的effects of damage的搭配,语义应为“减轻”,B和C选项为大纲基础词,排除无难度。

识别A选项和D选项无捷径,需要多积累形近词。

34.The problem of avoiding duplicate names, such as for E-mail accounts, is particularly acute when only a finite number of possibilities are allowed.

A选项意为“庄严的,隆重的”,B选项意为“严肃的,严厉的”,C选项意为“严厉的,僵硬的”,D选项意为“严重的,严峻的;严厉的;剧烈的;苛刻的”。

题干替换词意为“十分严重的”。

35.The environmentalists’warning against the blatant pursuit of industrialization without caution seems especially prescient.
A.precarious

C.foresighted
D.mysterious
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“危险的;不确定的”,B选项意为“表面上的;肤浅的”,C选项意为“有先见之明的,深谋远虑的”,D选项意为“神秘的,玄妙的”。

题干替换词意为“预见性的”。

注意warning的语义场,和它一起出现的词不会有B选项和D选项,A不符合全句语义。

36.Britain is attractive to worldwide advertisers because it is a homogenous market, so there is no need to tailor advertisements to different parts of the country.
A.global
B.local
C.foreign
D.uniform
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查近义词辨析。

A选项意为“全球的,整体的”,B选项意为“当地的,局部的”,C选项意为“外国的,异质的”,D选项意为“统一的”。

题干替换词意为“同质的”。

看后文的…no need…different parts of the country,可以推断替换部分语义是与全国各地相对的“全国统一性质的”,A选项略有迷惑性,但其多指全球范围。

37.The addition of stabilizing devices impaired the aesthetics of the bridge.
A.compromised
B.endangered
C.removed
D.determined
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“妥协,折中”,B选项意为“危及;使遭受危险”,C选项意为“移除,去除”,D选项意为“决定;了结”。

题干替换词意为“削弱”。

增加稳定装置是为了牢固,若为了美感,建筑会更多考虑线条外观,因此替换的动词应该具有某种“此消彼长”的意思,A与其最接近。

38.When she first came to the U.S. from Columbia, she was hardly the diligent student she later made herself out to be, since she had access to considerable family wealth.
A.assiduous
B.determined
C.impetuous
D.thrifty
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“刻苦的,勤勤恳恳的”,B选项意为“有决心的”,C选项意为“鲁莽的,冲动的”,D选项意为“节俭的,节约的”。

题干替换词意为“勤奋的”。

有钱人家的孩子,在学业上不会怎样呢?抓住这个语境,就会发现“鲁莽,冲动”“节俭”都不符合句意,B略有一些迷惑性,但是A选项。

刻苦的,,与student更搭配。

39.It was her view that the country’s problems had been exacerbated by foreign aid, so asking for such assistance would be counterproductive.
A.mitigated
B.ascertained
C.worsened
D.overlooked
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“减轻;减缓”,B选项意为“弄清,
查明”,C选项意为“使恶化”,D选项意为“忽略,忽视”。

题干替换词意为“恶化,加剧”。

先抓后文的counterproductive(若不认识,可求助构词法知识,productive 意为“富有成效的”,counter意为“相反的”),再理顺原句语义关系:因为aid(援助)+替换动词+宾语problem,所以求助是适得其反的。

可见替换部分的意思是问题非但没有解决,反而更严重了,因此C最接近。

40.Early studies often concluded that the public was susceptible to the influence of mass communication. However, a recent study indicates mass communication seldom produces marked changes in social attitudes.
A.imperceptible
B.sensible
C.acceptable
D.liable
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查词义辨析。

A选项意为“感觉不到的,细微的,逐步的”,B选项意为“明智的,通情达理的”,C选项意为“可接受的,认同的”,D选项意为“有责任的,易受……影响的”。

题干替换词意为“受影响的”。

本句要抓住however前后两句的转折关系,先看后句,抓住…seldom…change…,所以前面的早期研究一定是相反的结论,对于大众传播的影响倾向于肯定。

该题还要注意选项词的搭配,如sensible指人们的判断能力的时候,可以用作表语,也可以修饰idea等,不能加to。

41.The one word that sums up the attitude of the silent filmmaker is enthusiasm, conveys most strongly before formulas took shape and when there was more room for experiments.
A.conveyed
B.conveying
C.to convey
D.being conveyed
正确答案:B
解析:本题重点考查非谓语动词作伴随状语的用法。

句子的主干部分是the one word is enthusiasm,所以conveys most strongly应该是作句子的附属成分,convey应该以非谓语动词的形式出现。

四个选项中,A和D选项都表被动意义,语义上不合适。

C选项是不定式的一般式,表将来,语义上不衔接。

B选项是现在分词表伴随状况,故选B。

42.The book is useful because it offers not just philosophy and theory but also advising you for everyday living.
A.advises you
B.advice
C.to you advice
D.to advise you
正确答案:B
解析:本题重点考查常见并列结构的用法。

在本题的原因状语从句中有一个并列结构not just…but also…,连接的应该是两个平行的成分。

从句子中可以看到,not just后面是名词词组,因而but also后面也应当跟名词。

四个选项中,根据前面的分析,首先排除A和D选项。

C选项中的to you是多余的,即使要用,也应该是advice to you,才符合offer sth.to sb.这种表达方式。

故选B。

43.Psychologists advise that before making any major changes in their lives, they need to focus on one’s goals.
A.a person needs to focus on his goals
B.people need to focus on their goals
C.one needs to focus on one’s goals
D.a person needs to focus on one’s goals
正确答案:B
解析:本题重点考查代词的指代用法。

画线部分的错误在于代词they的指代不明确,在宾语从句中找不到它的先行词,从语义上来看也不可能是指代主句中的psychologists。

因为前文中有in their lives,表明从句的主语应是复数代词,故选B。

44.The company which is investigating side effects of various drugs have won them their enviable reputation among scientists.
A.have won it its
B.have won them an
C.has won it an
D.has won them its
正确答案:C
解析:本题重点考查常见集体名词单复数用法辨析。

本句的主语是the company,是当作一个整体概念来看待,所以其后的谓语动词应该用单数。

四个选项中,A和B选项都是谓语动词的复数形式。

D选项的错误在于其中的代词them。

C选项中的谓语动词为单数,代词是单数,故选C。

45.Alongside the trail on which we ride our bikes every morning run a crooked line of rugged old oak trees.
A.there runs a crooked line of rugged old oak trees
B.there run rugged old oak trees in a crooked line
C.run rugged old oak trees in a crooked line
D.runs a crooked line of rugged old oak trees
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查倒装句中的主谓一致。

本句是一个倒装句,主语是a crooked line of rugged old oak trees。

中心词是line,所以谓语动词应该用单数。

四个选项中,首先可以排除B和C,因为它们都把主语看成了复数名词trees。

A选项中的there是多余的,因为前面有一个alongside the trail,已经明确地指出了地点。

D选项的动词是第三人称单数,故选D。

46.A discovery in New Jersey actually contributed to the early economic development of the U.S. and, in 1714 a worker uncovered a green rock containing copper.
A.when, in 1714,
B.thus, in 1714,
C.it was in 1714
D.till in 1714
正确答案:A
解析:本题重点考查状语从句用法辨析。

画线部分使用了连词and,因此and 前后两个句子在语法上就形成了并列关系,但从句子意思来看,推动经济发展是果,发现含铜石块是因,而且有时间的先后,因此使用and是错误的。

四个选项中,B选项中的thus表示结果,是错误的。

C选项中缺乏连词。

D选项中till通常与not共同使用。

A选项中的when引导一个时间状语从句,在逻辑上表示原因。

47.Never we had seen anything like this style of architecture before, we thought we were looking at giant sculptures, not buildings.
A.Never to see
B.Never seeing
C.Never having seen
D.Never seen
正确答案:C
解析:本题重点考查现在分词作状语的用法。

画线部分位于句首,而且是以否定词never开始,按照英语语法规则,该句应该是倒装句,但画线部分并不是主谓倒装,所以是错误的。

四个选项中,首先可以排除A选项,因为主句用了过去式。

D选项也不对,其逻辑主语应该是主句的主语we,所以不能用动词的过去分词表示被动。

B选项用的是动词的现在分词形式,没有体现出see和think 之间在时间上的先后关系。

C选项体现了两个动词在时间上的先后关系(现在分词完成式表示其动作在谓语动词的动作之前完成)和因果关系,故选C。

48.The furnace exploded, blowing off the door, spraying greasy soot all over the basement floor, and it would rattle furniture and windowpanes throughout the。
