考研英语一完形填空真题

考研英语一完形填空真题

考研英语一完形填空真题【考研英语一完形填空真题】In recent years, there has been a growing recognition that creativity is not a special talent possessed only by certain individuals, but a skill that can be developed and nurtured in every person. Numerous studies and experiments have suggested that creativity is closely connected with divergent thinking, which refers to the ability to generate multiple solutions to a problem. Therefore, in order to enhance our creative thinking skills, it is important to foster and encourage divergent thinking in various aspects of our lives.Firstly, one effective way to cultivate divergent thinking is to engage in brainstorming sessions. During a brainstorming session, individuals are encouraged to express their thoughts and ideas freely, without any judgment or evaluation. By creating an open and non-judgmental environment, brainstorming allows for the exploration of unconventional ideas and perspectives, which can often lead to breakthrough innovations. Moreover, brainstorming sessions can also promote collaboration and teamwork, as people build upon each other's ideas and collectively generate creative solutions.Secondly, exposure to diverse stimuli and experiences can greatly stimulate our divergent thinking skills. Engaging in activities such as reading books from various genres, traveling to different countries, or participating in multidisciplinary projects can broaden our horizons and expose us to new perspectives and ideas. This exposure to diverse stimuli helps to challenge our existing assumptions and encourages us to think outside the box.Additionally, maintaining a curious and open mindset towards learning and acquiring knowledge is crucial in nurturing our creative thinking abilities.Furthermore, embracing failure and adopting a growth mindset are essential in developing our creative thinking skills. Failure should not be seen as an endpoint, but rather as an opportunity for learning and improvement. When faced with challenges or setbacks, it is important to analyze and understand the underlying causes, and use this knowledge to generate new strategies or alternative solutions. By embracing failure and persevering through obstacles, we develop resilience and develop the ability to think creatively in order to overcome difficulties.In conclusion, creativity is a skill that can be cultivated and enhanced through the practice of divergent thinking. By engaging in brainstorming sessions, exposing ourselves to diverse stimuli, and embracing failure, we can foster a creative mindset and generate innovative solutions to various problems. It is important to recognize that creativity is not limited to a select few, but a skill that can be developed by anyone willing to put in the effort and adopt the necessary mindset. Let us embrace and nurture our creative thinking abilities, as they are crucial in addressing the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.。

2005-2010年考研完形填空真题及答案

2005-2010年考研完形填空真题及答案

2005年考研完形填空答案1.[C]。

文章开头第一句提出观点:人类的鼻子是一个被低估的器官。

第二句接着说,和动物相比,人类经常被认为嗅觉不够灵敏。

这和作者的观点相悖,所以接下来会推翻这一说法,由此可推断,此处应该用转折的语气。

所以[C] but为正确选项。

[A] although表示让步;[B] as表示原因;[D] while表示轻微的转折,但常常用于事物间的对比,而原文中未体现出对比的意思,均可排除。

2. [B]。

空格处需要体现we和animal之间的关系。

由已知信息:我们可以直立行走,但动物是不可以的。

可知这句话旨在表达我们“不同于”动物。

因此[B] unlike“和……不同”符合文意。

而[A] above表示“(位置、地位等)高于;胜过”不符合语境;[C] excluding 和[D] besides都表示“除……之外”,文意不通,排除。

3. [A]。

这句话解释了人类的直立行走对嗅觉产生的影响。

该词后的介词to的宾语是perceiving those smells which float through the air(觉察飘浮在空气中的气味)。

把四个选项代入句子构成的词组,其意义分别是:be limited to“局限于”、be committed to“忠诚于”、be dedicated to“献身于”和be confined to“受限于”。

通过对比可知,原文倾向于“局限”之意。

其中[D] confined易与[A] limited混淆。

confined指“因(空间或地区)狭窄受限制的”,而后者所适用的范围较广。

由于原文没有“因为狭窄而受限制”之意,故排除[D]。

4. [C]。

空格处后接的宾语是the majority of smells which stick to surfaces(大部分附着在物体表面的气味),而主语是our noses。

由前文中的“只闻到了飘浮在空气中的气味”可以推断,人类闻不到物体表面的气味。

2005-2015历年考研英语一完形填空真题

The human nose is an underrated tool.Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals,1 this is largely because,2 animals,we stand upright.This means that our noses are 3 to perceiving those smells which float through the air,4 the majority of smells which stick to surfaces.In fact5,we are extremely sensitive to smells,6 we do not generally realize it.Our noses are capable of 7 human smells even when these are 8 to far below one part in one million.Strangely,some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another,9 others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers.This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate 10 smell receptors in the nose.These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send 11 to the brain.However,it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell 12 can suddenly become sensitive to it when 13 to it often enough.The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that brain finds it 14 to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can 15 new receptors if necessary.This may 16 explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells we simply do not need to be.We are not 17 of the usual smell of our own house but we 18 new smells when we visit someone else's.The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors 19 for unfamiliar and emergency signals

burn longer,that there is an 4 in not being too terrifically bright.Intelligence,it 5,is a high-priced option.It takes more upkeep,burns more fuel and is slow 6 the starting line because it depends on learning-a 7 process-instead of instinct.Plenty of other species are able to learn,and one of the things they've apparently learned is when to 8.Is there an adaptive value to 9 intelligence?That's the question behind this new research.I like it.Instead of casting a wistful glance 10 at all the species we've left in the dust I.Q.-wise,it implicitly asks what the real 11 of our own intelligence might be.This is 12 the mind of every animal I've ever met.Research on animal intelligence also makes me wonder what experiments animals would 13 on humans if they had the chance.Every cat with an owner,14,is running a small scale study in operant conditioning.We believe that 15 animals ran the labs,they would test us to 16 the limits of our patience,our faithfulness,our memory for terrain.They would try to decide what intelligence in humans is really 17,not merely how much of it there is.18,they would hope to study a 19 question:Are humans actually aware of the world they live in?20 the

America's National Research Council sent two engineers to supervise a series of industrial experiments at a large telephone-parts factory called the Hawthorne Plant near Chicago.It hoped they would

dimmed.It did not what was done in the experiment;something was changed,productivity rose.A(n)that they were being experimented upon seemed to be to alter workers' behavior itself.After several decades,the same data were to econometric the analysis.Hawthorne experiments has another surprise store the descriptions on record,no systematic was found that levels of productivity were related to changes in lighting.It turns out that peculiar way of conducting the experiments may be have let to interpretation of what happed.,lighting was always changed on a Sunday.When work started again on Monday,output rose compared with the previous Saturday and 17 to rise for the next couple of days.,a comparison with data for weeks when there was no experimentation showed that output always went up on Monday,workers to be diligent for the first few days of the week in any case,before a plateau and then slackening off.This suggests that the alleged"Hawthorne effect"is hard to pin

However, the typical teenage lifestyle is already filled with so much competition that it would be __27__ to plan activities in which there are more winners than losers, __28__, publishing newsletters with many student-written book reviews, __29__ student artwork, and sponsoring book discussion clubs.

The latter may commit crimes __27__ lack of adequate parental control.

This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other __37__ causes of offensive acts include frustration or failure in school, the increased __38__ of drugs and alcohol, and the growing __39__ of child abuse and child neglect.

For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into of the numbered blank there are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(10 points)Canada’s premiers (the leaders of provincial governments), if they have any breath left after complaining about Ottawa at their late July annual meeting, might spare a moment to do something, together, to reduce health-care costs.They’re all groaning about soaring health budgets, the fastest-growing component of which are pharmaceutical costs.41. ____[E] According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, prescription drug costs have risen since 1997 at twice the rate of overall health-care spending. Part of the increase comes from drugs being used to replace other kinds of treatments. Part of it arises from new drugs costing more than older kinds. Part of it is higher prices.____ What to do? Both the Romanow commission and the Kirby committee on health care -- to say nothing of reports from other experts -- recommended the creation of a national drug agency. Instead of each province having its own list of approved drugs, bureaucracy, procedures and limited bargaining power, all would pool resources, work with Ottawa, and create a national institution.42. ____[C] What does “national” mean? Roy Romanow and Senator Michael Kirby recommended a federal-provincial body much like the recently created National Health Council.____But “national” doesn’t have to mean that. “National” could mean interprovincial -- provinces combining efforts to create one body.Either way, one benefit of a “national” organization would be to negotiate better prices, if possible, with drug manufacturers. Instead of having one province -- or a series of hospitals within a province -- negotiate a price for a given drug on the provincial list, the national agency would negotiate on behalf of all provinces.Rather than, say, Quebec, negotiating on behalf of seven million people, the national agency would negotiate on behalf 31 million people. Basic economics suggests the greater the potential consumers, the higher the likelihood of a better price.43. ____[G] Of course the pharmaceutical companies will scream. They like divided buyers; they can lobby better that way. They can use the threat of removing jobs from one province to another. They can hope that, if one province includes a drug on its list, the pressure will cause others to include it on theirs. They wouldn’t like a national agency, but self-interest would lead them to deal with it.____A small step has been taken in the direction of a national agency with the creation of the Canadian Coordinating Office for Health Technology Assessment, funded by Ottawa and the provinces. Under it, a Common Drug Review recommends to provincial lists which new drugs should be included. Predictably, and regrettably, Quebec refused to join.A few premiers are suspicious of any federal-provincial deal-making. They (particularly Quebec and Alberta) just want Ottawa to fork over additional billions with few, if any, strings attached. That’s one reason why the idea of a national list hasn’t gone anywhere while drug costs keep rising fast.44. ____[F] So, if the provinces want to run the health-care show, they should prove they can run it, starting with an interprovincial health list that would end duplication, save administrative costs, prevent one province from being played off against another, and bargain for better drug prices.____Premiers love to quote Mr. Romanow’s report selectively, especially the parts about more federal money. Perhaps they should read what he had to say about drugs: “A national drug agency would provide governments more influence on pharmaceutical companies in order to constrain the ever-increasing cost of drugs.”45. ____[B] Or they could read Mr. Kirby’s report: “the substantial buying power of such an agency would strengthen the public prescription-drug insurance plans to negotiate the lowest possible purchase prices from drug companies.”____So when the premiers gather in Niagara Falls to assemble their usual complaint list, they should also get cracking about something in their jurisdiction that would help their budgets and patients.[A] Quebec’s resistance to a national agency is provincialist ideology. One of the first advocates for a national list was a researcher at Laval University. Quebec’s Drug Insurance Fund has seen its costs skyrocket with annual increases from 14.3 per cent to26.8 per cent![B] Or they could read Mr. Kirby’s report: “the substantial buying power of such an agency would strengthen the public prescription-drug insurance plans to negotiate the lowest possible purchase prices from drug companies.”[C] What does “national” mean? Roy Romanow and Senator Michael Kirby recommended a federal-provincial body much like the recently created National Health Council.[D] The problem is simple and stark: health-care costs have been, are, and will continue to increase faster than government revenues.[E] According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, prescription drug costs have risen since 1997 at twice the rate of overall health-care spending. Part of the increase comes from drugs being used to replace other kinds of treatments. Part of it arises from new drugs costing more than older kinds. Part of it is higher prices.[F] So, if the provinces want to run the health-care show, they should prove they can run it, starting with an interprovincial health list that would end duplication, save administrative costs, prevent one province from being played off against another, and bargain for better drug prices.[G] Of course the pharmaceutical companies will scream. They like divided buyers; they can lobby better that way. They can use the threat of removing jobs from one province to another. They can hope that, if one province includes a drug on its list, the pressure will cause others to include it on theirs.

learning-a 7 process-instead of instinct.Plenty of other species are able to learn,and one of the things they've apparently learned is when to 8.Is there an adaptive value to 9 intelligence?That's the question behind this new research.I like it.Instead of casting a wistful glance 10 at all the species we've left in the dust I.Q.-wise,it implicitly asks what the real 11 of our own intelligence might

would try to decide what intelligence in humans is really 17,not merely how much of it there is.18,they would hope to study a 19 question:Are humans actually aware of the world they live in?20 the

America's National Research Council sent two engineers to supervise a series of industrial experiments at a large telephone-parts factory called the Hawthorne Plant near Chicago.It hoped they would learn how stop-floor lighting workers' productivity.Instead,the studies ended giving their name to the"Hawthorne effect",the extremely influential idea that the very to being experimented upon changed subjects' behavior.The idea arose because of the behavior of the women in the Hawthorne plant.According to of the experiments,their hourly output rose when lighting was increased,but also when it was dimmed.It did not what was done in the experiment;something was changed,productivity rose.A(n)that they were being experimented upon seemed to be to alter workers' behavior itself.After several decades,the same data were to econometric the analysis.Hawthorne experiments has another surprise store the descriptions on record,no systematic was found that levels of productivity were related to changes in lighting.It turns out that peculiar way of conducting the experiments may be have let to interpretation of what happed.,lighting was always changed on a Sunday.When work started again on Monday,output rose compared with the previous Saturday and 17 to rise for the next couple of days.,a comparison with data for weeks when there was no experimentation showed that output always went up on Monday,workers to be diligent for the first few days of the week in any case,before a plateau and then slackening off.This suggests that the alleged"Hawthorne effect"is hard to pin

Theories21 on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior 22 they were not sufficiently penalized for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through 23 with others. Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes in 24 to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status 25 as a rejection of middle-class values.Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from disadvantaged families, 26 the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes 27 lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are28 to criticism.Changes in the social structure may indirectly 29 juvenile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that 30 to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment31 make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain. The resulting discontent may in32 lead more youths into criminal behavior.Families have also 33 changes these years. More families consist of one parent households or two working parents; 34 , children are likely to have less supervision at home 35 was common in the traditional family 36 . This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other 37 causes of offensive acts include frustration or failure in school, the increased 38 of drugs and alcohol, and the growing 39 of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act, 40 a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.21.[A] acting [B] relying [C] centering [D] commenting22.[A] before [B] unless [C] until [D] because23.[A] interactions [B] assimilation [C] cooperation [D] consultation24.[A] return [B] reply [C] reference [D] response25.[A] or [B] but rather [C] but [D] or else26.[A] considering [B] ignoring [C] highlighting [D] discarding27.[A] on [B] in [C] for [D] with28.[A] immune [B] resistant [C] sensitive [D] subject29.
