完型填空 Section I Use of English这篇文章出自纽约时代（New York Times, June, 30th , 2011）中一篇文章Ethics, Politics and the Law，主题是有关政治和法律的话题。
选项里的大多数单词都能认识，但不一定能选对，这属于考研英语词汇的一大考点—熟词生义。
原文如下：1—5 BABDC 6—10 BDBAB 11—15 ACCDA 16—20 CACDDThe ethical judgments of the Supreme Court justices became an important issue in the just completed term. The court cannot 1. maintain its legitimacy as guardian of the rule of law 2. when justices behave like politicians. Yet, in several instances, justices acted in ways that 3. weakened the court’s reputation for being independent and impartial. Justices Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito Jr., for example, appeared at political events. That kind of activity makes it less likely that the court’s decisions will be 4. accepted as nonpartisan judgments. Part of the problem is that the justices are not 5. bound by an ethics code. At the very least, the court should make itself 6. subject to the code of conduct that 7. applies to the rest of the federal judiciary. …………It issued a devastating blow to consumer rights by upholding the arbitration clause in AT&T’s customer agreement, which required the signer to waive the right to take part in a class action.Finally, in the complex Wal-Mart case, the conservative majority, going beyond the particular issues in that case, made it substantially more difficult for class-action suits in all manner of cases to move forward. These and other decisions 8. raise the question of whether there is still a 9. line between the court and politics, an issue since the Republican-led Rehnquist court decided Bush v. Gore in 2000, though the federal judiciary’s shift to the right has been happening since the administration of Ronald Reagan.The framers of the Constitution envisioned law 10. as having authority apart from politics. They gave justices life tenure 11. so they would be free to 12. upset the powerful and have no need to 13. cultivate political support. Our legal system was designed to set law apart from politics precisely because they are so closely 14. tied.Constitutional law is political because it results from choices rooted in fundamental social 15. concepts like liberty and property. When the court deals with social policy decisions, the law it 16. shapes isinescapably political — which is why decisions split along ideological lines are so easily 17. dismissed as partisan.The justices must 18. address doubts about the court’s legitimacy by making themselves 19. accountable to the code of conduct. That would make their rulings more likely to be seen as separate from politics and, 20. as a result, convincing as law.。

2012年英一完形填空2012年考研英语一完形填空真题及答案文章：The idea that some groups of people may be more intelligent than others is one of those theories that dare not speak its name. But Gregory Stock, a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at UCLA, has 1 such ideas. His main 2 is the stock of human genes, and the changing way those genes are expressed in a body. Stock’s 3 is based on the belief that an individual’s intellectual 4 is not determined by a single gene, but by a group of genes. His argument is that while 5 is seen as a single trait, in reality it is not so simple. There are many intellectual and artistic abilities that 6 a person’s overall intelligence. His belief is that even people who are not particularly good in either category can still be considered intelligent if they have a high degree of personal or emotional intelligence.In his book, Genetics and the Destiny of the Intellect, Stock 7 that the combination of human genes can determine intellectual 8. He pointsout that human evolution is not simply the result of natural selection, but also of “gene expression”. He also 9 that natural selection no longer acts as strongly on intelligence as it once did.However, the view that genes determine human behavior has 10 a number of scientists. They believe that intelligence is not determined by a single gene, but by many genes. These genes not only affect how a person learns, but also determine his or her 11 to diseases. In addition, some scientists believe that environmental factors also play a key r ole in determining a person’s intelligence. They point out that people who grow up in poor environments may not develop their intellectual 12 as fully as those who grow up in more favorable environments.In conclusion, the debate about whether genes or the environment play a greater role in determining a person’s intelligence is still ongoing. While some scientists believe that genetic factors are more important, others believe that environmental factors are more significant. Therefore, we cannot 13 which of these factors has more impact on intelligence at this time.答案：1. challenges2. focus3. argument4. performance5. intelligence6. contribute to7. maintains8. potential9. suggests10. persuaded11. vulnerability12. abilities13. determine。

(40 points)Text 2TEXT2Pretty in pink: adult women do not remember being so obsessed with the colour, yet it is pervasive i n our young girls’ lives. It is not that pink intrinsically bad, but it is a tiny slice of therainbow and, though it may celebrate girlhood in one way, it also repeatedly and firmly fused girls’ identity to appearance. Then it presents that connection, even among two-year-olds, between girls as not only innocent but as evidence of innocence. Looking around, despaired at the singular lack of imagination about girls’ lives and interests.Girls' attraction to pink may seem unavoidable, somehow encoded in their DNA, but according to Jo Paoletti, an associate professor of American Studies, it's not. Children were not colour-coded at all until the early 20th century: in the era before domestic washing machines all babies wore white as a practical matter, since the only way of getting clothes clean was to boil them. What's more, both boys and girls wore what were thought of as gender-neutral dresses. When nursery colours were introduced, pink was actually considered the more masculine colour, a pastel version of red, which was associated with strength. Blue, with its intimations of the Virgin Mary, constancy and faithfulness, symbolised femininity. It was not until the mid-1980s, when amplifying age and sex differences became a dominant children's marketing strategy, that pink fully came into its own, when it began to seem innately attractive to girls, part of what defined them as female, at least for the first few critical years.I had not realised how profoundly marketing trends dictated our perception of what is natural tokids, including our core beliefs about their psychological development. Take the toddler. I assumed that phase was something experts developed after years of research into children's behaviour: wrong. Turns out, according to Daniel Cook, a historian of childhood consumerism, it was popularised as a marketing gimmick by clothing manufacturers in the 1930s.Trade publications counselled department stores that, in order to increase sales, they should create a "third stepping stone" between infant wear and older kids' clothes. It was only after "toddler" became common shoppers' term that it evolved into a broadly accepted developmental stage. Splitting kids, or adults, into ever-tinier categories has proved a sure-fire way to boost profits. And one of the easiest ways to segment a market is to magnify gender differences – or invent them where they did not previously exist.26 By saying "it is ... The rainbow"(line 3, Para 1), the author means pink _______.A should not be the sole representation of girlhoodB should not be associated with girls' innocenceC cannot explain girls' lack of imaginationD cannot influence girls' lives and interests27 According to Paragraph 2, which of the following is true of colours?A Colors are encoded in girls' DNAB Blue used to be regarded as the color for girlsC Pink used to be a neutral color in symbolizing gendersD White is preferred by babies28 The author suggests that our perception of children's psychological devotement was much influenced by ________.[A] the marketing of products for children[B] the observation of children's nature[C] researches into children's behavior[D] studies of childhood consumption29. We may learn from Paragraph 4 that department stores were advised ________.A focuses on infant wear and older kids' clothesB attach equal importance to different gendersC classify consumers into smaller groupsD create some common shoppers' terms30. it can be concluded that girl's attraction to pink seems to be _____.A clearly explained by their inborn tendencyB fully understood by clothing manufacturersC mainly imposed by profit-driven businessmenD well interpreted by psychological expertsText 331．32．33．34．35．Text 436．37．38．39．40．Part BDirections:For questions 41-45, choose the most suitable paragraphs from the list A-G and fill them into the numbered boxes to form a coherent text.

2012考研英语全真模拟题答案1-20题
Section ⅠUse of English 参考译⽂ 许多没有到过⼤不列颠的外国⼈把这⾥的所有居民都叫做英格兰⼈，因为他们习惯于把⼤不列颠群岛认为是英格兰。
实际上，⼤不列颠群岛上有许多民族，只有英格兰的⼈才把⾃⼰称为英格兰⼈。
⽽其他⼈称⾃⼰为威尔⼠⼈、苏格兰⼈和爱尔兰⼈，事情可能就是这样。
把他们⼀概统称为“英国⼈”，常会使他们感到有点⽣⽓。
即使在英格兰也有许多地区性特点和⾔语⽅⾯的差别。
主要区别存在于南英格兰与北英格兰之间。
从布⾥斯托到伦敦的连线以南,⼈们说的英语就是外国学⽣通常所学的那种英语,尽管有些地⽅性差异。
再往北的⽅⾔通常⽐英国南部⽅⾔的差异“更⼤”。
北部⼈往往声称他们⽐南部⼈更勤奋,因⽽更纯正。
他们真诚和殷勤。
外国⼈常常发现，他们很快就与北部⼈交上朋友。
北部⼈⼀般⼼宽体胖胃⼝好，例如,到兰开郡或约克郡的参观者在吃饭时可以有望得到丰盛的饭菜。
在⼝⾳和特征⽅⾯，⽶德兰(英格兰中部地区)的⼈代表了从南部型英格兰⼈到北部型英格兰⼈的逐渐变化。
在苏格兰,字母“r”所表⽰的⾳是强⾳,并且“r”常常在有些词中读出声来,在南部英语中这些词中的“r”是不发⾳的。
据说，苏格兰是⼀个严肃、谨慎、节俭的民族，更有创造⼒并且有点神秘感。
英伦三岛的所有凯尔特⼈种(威尔⼠、爱尔兰⼈、苏格兰⼈)常被描述成⽐英格兰⼈更加“脾⽓暴躁”。
他们具有与英格兰⼈完全不同的⾎统。
1. [答案] [D]In fact [注释] 逻辑搭配。
in fact 实际上;常表⽰语⽓的转折。
in consequence因此; in brief简短地;总⽽⾔之; in general ⼀般来说。
从上下⽂的逻辑意思看，in fact最为贴切。
2. [答案] [C]refer [注释] 词义型结构搭配。
refer to...as 把…称做…; confine...to 把…局限于;管制;attach...to 缚上,系上,贴上,使…依附于,使…依恋; add to (= increase) 增加。

It is of great pleasure to anticipate your coming soon.As foreign students, you will find everything on our campus quite different, fresh and alien. Therefore, after arriving, you can take full advantage of every opportunity to communicate with us directly to bridge the gap.

The Chinese characters above inform our readers of the message that various folks take different attitudes toward the same event. （参见黄涛冲刺班作文讲义第8页第一段首句必杀句型）How impressive this drawing seems to be in depicting one of the most prevalent themes that attitudes make everything in our life.After careful reflection and mediation, we examinees come to understand the enlightening drawing. I contend that this thought-provoking image conveys one profound layer of implication concerning attitude or optimism. It is universally acknowledged that life is by no means perfect and whether we feel optimistic or not depends on what attitudes we take. (参见黄涛冲刺班讲义第3页作文经典句型必备)When confronted with an adverse situation, some youths feel in low spirits and fall into depression. Others, on the contrary, look at the positive side of the situation and remain cheerful. As a consequence, it is our attitude rather than the situation itself that determines how we feel. (参见启航冲刺讲义第13页第30个段落正反论证法)In my personal sense, the message applies to our youths especially. In such a rat-race society, everyone is bound to encounter hardships and difficulties. In this sense, I should keep an optimistic attitude to pullthrough any hardship. Just as a famous figure puts it, it is our attitude that has changed everything in our life. （参见作文冲刺讲义第7页作文九大高分句式之引用名人名言）更多经典高分句型可以参考40页的黄涛作文冲刺资料，按照自己喜欢的背诵的高分句子来造就自己的高分作文。

完型填空 Section I Use of English这篇文章出自纽约时代（New York Times, June, 30th , 2011）中一篇文章Ethics, Politics and the Law，主题是有关政治和法律的话题。
选项里的大多数单词都能认识，但不一定能选对，这属于考研英语词汇的一大考点—熟词生义。
原文如下：1—5 BABDC 6—10 BDBAB 11—15 ACCDA 16—20 CACDDThe ethical judgments of the Supreme Court justices became an important issue in the just completed term. The court cannot 1. maintain its legitimacy as guardian of the rule of law 2. when justices behave like politicians. Yet, in several instances, justices acted in ways that 3. weakened the c ourt’s reputation for being independent and impartial.Justices Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito Jr., for example, appeared at political events. That kind of activity makes it less likely that the court’s decisions will be 4. accepted as nonpartisan judgments. Part of the problem is that the justices are not 5. bound by an ethics code. At the very least, the court should make itself 6. subject to the code of conduct that 7. applies to the rest of the federal judiciary. …………It issued a devastating blow to consumer rights by upholding the arbitration clause in AT&T’s customer agreement, which required the signer to waive the right to take part in a class action.Finally, in the complex Wal-Mart case, the conservative majority, going beyond the particular issues in that case, made it substantially more difficult forclass-action suits in all manner of cases to move forward.These and other decisions 8. raise the question of whether there is still a 9. line between the court and politics, an issue since the Republican-led Rehnquist court decided Bush v. Gore in 2000, though the federal judiciary’s shift to the right has been happening since the administration of Ronald Reagan.The framers of the Constitution envisioned law 10. as having authority apart from politics. They gave justices life tenure 11. so they would be free to 12. upset the powerful and have no need to 13. cultivate political support. Our legal system was designed to set law apart from politics precisely because they are so closely 14. tied.Constitutional law is political because it results from choices rooted in fundamental social 15. concepts like liberty and property. When the court deals with social policy decisions, the law it 16. shapes is inescapably political — which is why decisions split along ideological lines are so easily 17. dismissed as partisan.The justices must 18. address doubts about the court’s legitimacy by making themselves 19. accountable to the code of conduct. That would make their rulings more likely to be seen as separate from politics and, 20. as a result, convincing as law.。
