"They are relics (纪念物)of different historical periods still found in our kitchens."Take the six-pack, whose contents first fizzed at the dawn of civilization.BeerThe ancient Sumerians, who built advanced city-states in the area of present-day lraq, began fermenting(发酵)beer from barley at least 6,000 years ago."When people started agriculture the first crops they produced were barley or wheat. You consume those crops as bread and as beer," Standage noted. "It’s the drink associated with the dawn of civilization. It’s as simple as that."Beer was popular with the masses from the beginning."Beer would have been something that a common person could have had in the house and made whenever they wanted," said Linda Bisson, a microbiologist at the Department of Viticulture and Enology at the University of California, Davis."The guys who built the pyramids were paid in beer and bread," Standage added. "It was the defining drink of Egypt and Mesopotamia. Everybody drank it. Today it’s the drink of the working man, and it was then as well."WineWine may be as old or older than beer—though no one can be certain.Paleolithic humans probably sampled the first "wine" as the juice of naturally fermented wild grapes. But producing and storing wine proved difficult for early cultures."To make wine you have to have fresh grapes," said Bisson, the UC Davis microbiologist. "for beer you can just store grain and add water to process it at any time."Making wine also demanded pottery that could preserve the precious liquid."Wine may be easier to make [than beer], but it’s harder to store," Bisson added. "For most ancient cultures it would have been hard to catch [fermenting grape juice] as wine on its way to [becoming] vinegar."Such caveats and the expense of producing wine helped the beverage quickly gain more cachet(威望)than beer. Wine was originally associated with social elites and religious activities.Wine snobbery may be nearly as old as wine itself. Greeks and Romans produced many grades of wine for various social classes.The quest for quality became an economic engine and later drove cultural expansion."Once you had regions [like Greece and Rome] that could distinguish themselves as making good stuff, it gave them an economic boost," Bisson said. "Beer just wasn’t as special."SpiritsHard liquor, particularly brandy and rum, placated (安抚)sailors during the long sea voyages of the Age of Exploration, when European powers plied the seas during the 15th, 16th, and early 17th centuries.Rum played a crucial part of the triangular trade between Britain, Africa, and the North American colonies that once dominated the Atlantic economy.Standage also suggests that rum may have been more responsible than tea for the independence movement in Britain’s American colonies."Distilling molasses for rum was very important to the New England economy," he explained. "When the British tried to tax molasses it struck at the heart of the economy. The idea of ’no taxation without representation’originated with molasses and sugar. Only at the end did it refer to tea."Great Britain’s longtime superiority at sea may also owe a debt to its navy’s drink of rum-based choice, grog(掺水烈酒),which was made a compulsory beverage for sailors in the late 18th century."They would make grog with rum, water, and lemon or lime juice," Standage said. "This improved the taste but also reduced illness and scurvy. Fleet physicians thought that this had doubled the efficiency of the fleet."CoffeeThe story of modern coffee starts in the Arabian Peninsula, where roasted beans were first brewed around A.D. 1000. Sometime around the 15th century, coffee spread throughout the Arab world."In the Arab world, coffee rose as an alternative to alcohol, and coffeehouses as alternatives to taverns(酒馆)—both of which are banned by Islam," Standage said.When coffee arrived in Europe it was similarly hailed as an "anti-alcohol" that was quite welcome during the Age of Reason in the 18th century."Just at the point when the Enlightenment is getting going, here’s a drink that sharpens the mind," Standage said. "The coffeehouse is the perfect venue(聚会地点)to get together and exchange ideas and information. The French Revolution started in a coffeehouse."Coffee also fuelled commerce and had strong links to the rituals of business that remain to the present day. Lloyds of London and the London Stock Exchange were both originally coffeehouses.TeaTea became a daily drink in China around the third century A.D.Standage says tea played a leading role in the expansion of imperial and industrial might in Great Britain many centuries later. During the 19th century, the East India Company enjoyed a monopoly on tea exports from China."Englishmen around the world could drink tea, whether they were a colonial administrator in India or a London businessman," Standage said. "The sun never set on the British Empire—which meant that it was always teatime somewhere."As the Industrial Revolution of 18th and 19th centuries gained steam, tea provided some of the fuel. Factory workers stayed alert during long, monotonous shifts thanks to welcome tea breaks.The beverage also had unintended health benefits for rapidly growing urban areas. "When you start packing people together in cities it’s helpful to have a water-purification technology like tea," which was brewed with boiling water, Standage explained.Coca-colaIn 1886 pharmacist John Stith Pemberton sold about nine Coca-colas a day.Today his soft drink is one of the world’s most valuable brands-sold in more countries than the United Nations has members."It may be the second most widely understood phrase in the world after ’OK’," Standage said.The drink has become a symbol of the United States—love it or hate it. Standage notes that East Germans quickly reached for Cokes when the Berlin Wall fell, while Thai Muslims poured it out into the streets to show disdain for the U.S. in the days leading up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq."Coca-cola encapsulates what happened in the 20th century: the rise of consumer capitalism and the emergence of America as a superpower," Standage said. "It’s globalization in a bottle."While Coke may not always produce a smile, a survey by the Economist magazine (Standage’s employer), suggests that the soft drink’s presence is a great indicator of happy citizens. When countries were polled for happiness, as defined by a United Nations index, high scores correlated with sales of Coca-Cola."It’s not because [Coke] makes people happy, but because [its] sales happen in the dynamic free-market economies that tend to produce happy people," Standage said.1. The passage gives a brief description of the content of a new book, A History of the World in 6 Glasses.2. The ancient Sumerians began fermenting beer from barley at least 6,000 years ago.3. Today beer is the drink of the working man, which was not the case before.4. Greeks probably sampled the first "wine" as the juice of naturally fermented wild grapes.5. The caveats and the expense of producing wine helped it quickly gain more cachet than beer.6. Standage suggests that tea may have been more responsible than rum for the independence movement in Britain’s American colonies.7. Coffee is the best drink according to Standage.8. Sometime around the 15th century coffee spread throughout ________.9. During the 19th century, the monopoly on tea exports from China is ________.10. Coca-Cola has become a symbol of ________.“成千上万人疯狂下载。

12月CET4模拟试卷及答案
12月CET4模拟试卷及答案12月CET4模拟试卷及答案篇1professor kumar bhatt, founder and head of warwick manufacturing group(wmg), and rob meakin, a personnel director at marconi, have developed a partnership to train engineers and managers to becomee-literate. the new knowledge partnership will include a team of 40 marconi managers in what professor bhatt calls electronic engineering management or e2. a wide range of engineering and non-engineering companies has expressed interest in these exciting programs.professor bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing the business environment to a huge extent. many chief executives do not understand the power of the new technologies and, in some cases, are actually resisting change. he says that “as long as enough industry leaders realize its potential benefits, e-businesswill make possible a second productivity revolution in britain. this could take the economy close to eliminating the still substantial competitiveness gap with its main rivals. over the last five years in the us there has been a 30% improvement in manufacturing sector productivity because of information technology. in britain we can achieve more than that and successful e-business will be worth billions to the uk economy.”already britain makes more use of computer-aided design and manufacture (cad/cam) and management information technology systems than other european countries, and has a government that actively promotes e-business. but, observes professor bhatt, britain has never used technology as a growth driver. “the thing about electronic engineering management is that you can keep your legacy systems; you just need tolink those systems with an information engine. at the touch of a buttonit will allow project managers to see the status of a project, identify problems precisely and make virtually immediate decisions based on information that will be much more complete than in the past.”the e2 program is the result of an alliance by the warwick manufacturing group with america’s leading e-commerce studycenter,carnegie mellon. the latter will be responsible for training many of the marconi managers in america, where the group has half its business. in britain, professor bhatt has linked up with sun microsystems, oracle and parametric technology, to set up amulti-million pound e2 design and manufacturing center at theuniversity which will be used for training and research.professor bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing business tosuch an extent that wmg is likely to be renamed warwick electronicmanufacturing group. but, he warns “the move to globalize because ofe-commerce is racing ahead. although the net allows british industryto overtake their european peers, it also offers asian countries toleapfrog(相互超越) the west. for the first time it is not the privilegeof the western world because this technology is universal.”a) they do not understand a possible second productivity revolution in britain.d) they sometimes are against the change resulted from new technologies.23.according to the passage, what do you know about e-business in britain?d) e-business has great potential and will make changes in the country.a) britain can be competitive to us in the area of information technology.b) britain has already taken the advantages of running engineering management.c) as with many other european countries, britain has made use of computer-aided systems.d) e-commerce has offered opportunities to european countries to eliminate the competitiveness gap with all the rivals.a)britain is going to catch up with all other european countries in the field of electronic engineering managementc)the e-commerce has offered asian countries the chance to overtake britain and the rest of europeemotional maturity means knowing that another person cannot fill up the hole in your heart. that is your responsibility. you need to love and affirm yourself day-by-day, moment-by-moment. that is the spiritual challenge of your life and everybody’s life. without your love for yourself, nothing works. no amount of love from your partner is enough. the search for love from other people is like the alcoholic’s search forhappiness in a bottle. the more he drinks, the less satisfied he feels and the more he wants to drink.we are all addicted to falling in love. but after we’ve “fallen” a few times and broken our emotional bones, we hopefully wise up a bit. we know that the high of falling in love is not going to last. we know that sooner or later we will have to get real with each other. that is the difference between romance and partnership. romance is an attempt tokeep the addiction going. it has a very short half-life. partnership is the dance of two ordinary people learning to live together day by day.it is a very challenging school that we enroll in. it is sometimes a lot more work than play. and it certainly requires a lot more psychological adjustment than years of therapy! we don’t just graduate from this school in a year or two. it takes many years, perhaps even a lifetime,for us to master the curriculum. your partners are imperfect human beings, just like you. they were not the “wrong” partners any morethan you were. probably, they reflected your own level of realism and emotional maturity. that’s usually the way it works. so don’t wasteyour time thinking you simply made some bad choices. the only bad choice you made was forgetting who has the full time job loving you. i knowthat you know who this is !we keep remembering that they are not perfect, nor we are. love isnot a game of perfection. it is a game of overwhelming imperfection.the amazing thing is that love survives all of our mistaken attempts to control our partners and our relationships.d) love lies in the maturity of emotion which is essential to a partnership or relationship27.which of the following statements is true according to the passage?b) as long as we are emotionally mature, we can always enjoy the high of falling in love.c) love doesn’t die even if we make wrong attempts to control our partners.a) the more we try to control our partners and relationships, the better we can enjoy loveb) the more frequently we fall in love, the more intelligent we’ll bec) the more emotionally mature a couple are, the more harmonious they will live29.by saying “they were not the ‘wrong’ partners any more than you were.”(para 3), the author means ___.b) in some partnership or relationship, he or she tries to control the other.c) through psychological adjustment and therapy, one will feel satisfied with love.d) partnership is a school from which it is not easy for us to graduate.in a growing number of conflicts around the world, one or both sides attempt to label the other as “terrorist” in an effort to win support for their own causes. yet as the so-called “terrorists group” often proclaim, a clear distinction between a terrorist action and a non-terrorist military operation is frequently difficult to establish. most governments argue that terrorism is defined by violent methods to achieve political ends which are undertaken by organizations not recognized bythe world community as legitimate representatives of a nation; furthermore, random acts of violence, like attacks on school buses or shopping centers, are labeled as “terrorist”. political organization as the ira(irishrepublican army) and the plo (palestine liberation organization) have been dubbed(称为) “terrorists”, by the governments of england and israel because of their tactics and their non-official statuses as representatives of accurately defined nations. in the case of the plo, however, its election to power under yasser arafat has now confused its former recognition as terrorist. even the ira is earning status as an authentic opposition voice to the continued presence of british troops on irish soil.all this simply highlights the problems of separating what is a legitimate political organization with “the right” to employ violence to achieve political ends from so-called terrorist groups. inseparable from this issue is historical precedence(地位先后) and the degree of power and prestige an organization or nation has on the world stage. for example, while most independent observes would agree that the ira setting off a bomb in a london subway station confirms its notoriety, they would be less certain that israel’s recent bombing of a refugee camp is equally “terrorist”, despite the fact that many more innocent people were killed and injured in the latter incident than in the former. this raises the question, though certainly not for the first time, whether legitimate, even democratically elected, governments are also capable of terrorist action. is there always a clear moral distinction between the behavior of normally respected nations and that of “rogue”(流氓) organizations? what does seem clear from these reflections is not that terrorist actions are in any way justified, but that the use of such labels is sometimes based on a political needrather than on superior moral or ethical grounds.a) non-official status of a political organization involves terrorist suspicion.it is curious how much one despises and condemns the vices which one does not happen to possess. i am indeed not a severe man, nor would i permit myself to become intolerant of those failings which i share with others. but, having no particular temptation to be untruthful, i find myself believing that when one comes to think of it, truth is the major virtue and lying the most blameworthy of all the vices.i should like, therefore, to get my mind a little clearer on the truth question. i flatter myself, as i have said, that i am a truthful man: a man who, when he tells a lie, is careful not to forget that he has done so, andwho takes infinite precautions to prevent his being found out. this, in the end, is the only test by which you can distinguish the liar from the man of truth. the latter which is bothered by untruthfulness, is worried and anxious. the real liar, however, is merely amused: he doesn’t mind in the least even if he is subsequently exposed: he regards the truthful man as somewhat of a fool.but this surely is one of the many false statements with which the real liar will try hard to idealize his failing. it may be inevitabe and even just to tell lies, but it cannot seriously be argued that such habits are intelligent. a lie is always an act of mental cowardice, whereas intelligence is brave. and yet there was bismarck, and yet there was napoleon-surely intelligent man, and surely liars. the problem, therefore, is not so simple as it seems. it was simple enough, in those old days, to define with approximate accuracy when a given statement ceased to be the truth and became a lie. the essential test was whether the maker of a false statement knew that he was saying something false, and consciously wished his audience to accept, and to remain under, this false impression. life in civilized communities is a process of adjusting the personal to the social, of conforming the individual impression to the joint impressions of the common people. this process of adjustment leads inevitably and rightly to a certain unconscious deception. absolute truth, whether unconscious or even conscious, is thus impossible. it is to relative truth only that we can hope to aspire.a) a person shows strong disapproval of the vices an individual doesn’t havec) one may be tempted to untruthfulness when one comes to think of itd) untruthfulness is a serious fault of character which he condemns strongly38.the essential distinction between a truthful person and a liar lies in the fact that ___.b) the latter takes great care to hinder his untruths from being exposedc) the former is willing to confess his untruthfulness when he tells a liec) argue that their habits of telling lies are intelligent rather than foolishb) in modern society,

2021年12月英语四级真题完形、翻译点评
2021年12月英语四级真题完形、翻译点评最新、最完整的英语完形填空部分答案,以下是完整内容。
完形填空此次四级考试已经尘埃落定,纵观本次考试的完形填空题型,难度较往年相比差别不大。
文章中有关逻辑关系的题目出现频率较高,但难度不大。
例如,70,72,78,80,81,83,85,86都是在考察逻辑关系。
对于此类题型,考生应考时切忌目无全牛,一定要瞻前顾后,把握住句与句之间的逻辑关系。
比如说第72道题,句中出现了表示并列逻辑关系的逻辑词and。
and之前说老年人的数量很多,因而之后的意思应该与此前相近,故而填写over,带入文中大致意为“享受养老金贴的人也很多”。
另外,本次完形填空中还呈现出一个很有趣的现象,即出现了三道复现题,分别为70,71和73道题。
在70道题之前刚刚出现了一个challenges,所以70道题选择C)challenges。
而对于71道题来说,全文中出现了retirement,retire,oldest和later stages 等词,所以71题选择B)retirement。
最后,73道题选择B)Learning,因为全文多次出现Learning“学习”这样的字眼。
除了以上的逻辑关系有所考察之外,词义辨析和固定搭配也有涉及。
比如,82道题,transition后面跟to。
选词填空点评此次四级考试15选10的难度与往年差别不大。
每年考试文章各异,但是依然需要按照三步法则来进行破解:1、对给定的单词按词性进行分类;(15选10只考察4种词性,分别是名词、动词、形容词和副词。
)2、看文章时,尤其是遇到空格时,首先要去判断空格的词性;3、分析上下文逻辑关系,以近一步减小搜寻范围;例如,本次考试的第47道题,文中说“Researchers __47__ 92 families from 11 child…”。
首先判断词性,因为缺少谓语,故知道需要填写动词,此题选择K)recruited 招募。

This has led to some debate over whether students should be given this much power.There are several factors that students consider when choosing a lecturer, including the teaching style of the lecturer, the lecturer's academic background, and the lecturer's reputation among students. The ideal lecturer is onewho has an interesting teaching style, a diverse academic background, and a good reputation among students.There are both positive and negative aspects to allowing students to choose their lecturers. Giving students the choice encourages them to take ownership for their classes, and also puts pressure on teachers to improve their teaching quality.However, the factors that students consider might not be the ones that lead to the highest quality of education. Schools might end up with lecturers who teach interesting classes without much content.Part II Reading comprehension (skimming and scanning) (15 minute)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minute to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer sheet1 For questions 1-7,markY(for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N(for NO) if statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG(for NOT CIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.for question 8-10 ,complete the sentenced with theinformation given in the passage.HighwayA government study recommended a national highway system of33,920 miles, and congress passed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1944,which called for strict, centraky controlled desert criteria.The interstate highway system was finally launched in 1956 and has been hailed as one of the greatest public works projects of the century .To build its 44,000-mile web of highways, bridge. and tunnels hundreds of unique engineering designs and solutions had to be worked out. Consider the many geographic ,features of the country: mountains,steep grades,wetlands,rivers,desorts and plains.

Innovative, designs of roadways, tunnels, bridges,overpasses,and interchanges that could run through or bypass urban areas soon began to weave their way across the country ,forever altering the face of American .Long-span, segmented-concrete, cable-stayed bridges such as Hale Boggs in Louisiana and the Sunshine Skyway in Florida, and remarkable tunnels like Fort Machinery in Maryland and Mr.bakerin Washington developed under the nation's physicalchallenges, Traffic control systems and methods of construction developed uder the interstate program soon influenced highway construction around the world, and were invaluable in improving the condition of urban streets and traffic patterns.Today .the interstate system links every major city in the U.S, and the U.S with Canada and Mexico, Built with safety in mind the highways have wide lanes and shoulders, dividing medians, or barriers, long entry and exit lanes,ourves engineered for safe turns, and limited access, The death rate on highways is half that of all other U.S roads (0.86 deaths per 100 million passenger miles compared to 1.99 deaths per 100 million on all other roads)By opening the North American continent, highways have enabled consumer goods and services to reach people in remote and rural areas of jobs, access to the growth options in terms of jobs access to cultural programs health care ,and other benefits. Above all, the interstate system provides individuals with what they enrich most: personal freedom of mobility.The interstate system has been an essential element of the nation's economic growth in terms of shipping and job creation:more than 75 percent of the nation's freight deliveries arrive by truck.and most products that arrive by rail or air use interstates for the last leg of the journey by vehicle.Not only has the highway system affected the American economy by providing shipping routes, it has led to the growth of spin-off industries like service stations ,motels,restaurants,and shopping centres.It has allowed the relocation of manufacturing plants and other industries from urban areas to rural.By the end of the century there was an immense network of paved roads, residential streets, expressways, and freeways built to support millions of vehicles, The high way system was officially renamed for Eisenhower to honor his vision and leadership. The year construction began he said:"Together, the united forces of our communication and transportation systems are dynamic elements in the very name we bear -United States.

洛基英语,中国在线英语教育领导品牌第四篇For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In __1__ a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend __2__ can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are __3__ readers. Most of us develop poor reading __4__ at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency __5__ in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have __6__ meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. __7__ , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to __8__ words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over __9__ you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which __10__ down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as __11__ reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an __12__ , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate __13__ the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch”him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, __14__ word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first __15__ is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, __16__ your comprehension will improve. Many people have found __17 __reading skill drastically improved after some training. __18__ Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute __19__ the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can __20__ a lot more reading material in a short period of time.1.A.applying B.doing C.offering D.getting2.A.quickly B.easily C.roughly D.decidedly3.A.good B.curious C.poor D.urgent4.A.training B.habits C.situations D.custom5.A.lies bines C.touches D.involves6.A.some B.A lot C.little D.dull7.A.Fortunately B.In fact C.Logically D.Unfortunately8.A.reuse B.reread C.rewrite D.recite9.A.what B.which C.that D.if10.A.scales B.cuts C.slows D.measures11.A.some one B.one C.he D.reader12.A.accelerator B.actor C.amplifier D.observer13.A.then B.as C.beyond D.than14.A.enabling B.leading C.making D.indicating15.A.meaning prehensionC.gist D.regression16.A.but B.nor C.or D.for17.A.our B.your C.their D.such a18.A.Look at B.Take C.Make D.Consider19.A.for B.in C.after D.before20.A.master B.go over C.present D.get through第四篇答案+解说:1.【答案】D【解析】本句意思是“谁如果想谋得一份差事”。
applying需加for,意思是“申请”;B.doing做;C.offering提供此三项均不符题意,只有D.getting(获得)适合。
2.【答案】A【解析】本句意为“快速阅读与理解的能力,是关系到成败的关键所在”只有quickly与原意吻合。
easily(容易地);roughly (粗略地);decidedly(果断地)均与原文内容不符。
3.【答案】C【解析】英语中,阅读速度快的人称为good reader,反之,就是poor reader。
根据上下文的内容,多数人都属于poor reader,因此选poor(差的)。
其它选项不妥。
4.【答案】B【解析】此处的意思是“大多数人早期养成看书慢的习惯”因此选habits(习惯)。
training (训练,培训);situations(形势);custom(风俗习惯)。
5.【答案】A【解析】此处说的是“主要的困难在于语言的自身要素,即单词”。
combines 联合;touches接触;involves包括,这三项的词义与原文不符。
而lies与in构成搭配,意为“在于”。
6.【答案】C【解析】这里的意思是“如果单个地看这些字,它们并没有什么意义”。
some 有点;A lot许多;dull单调的。
此三项不合题意。
只有little(很少)是否定词,合乎逻辑。
7.【答案】D【解析】此句意为“作者对未受过阅读训练的人的不良习惯感到遗憾”。
Fortunately幸运地;In fact事实上;Logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。
Unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句义。
8.【答案】B【解析】此句意为“在阅读时经常重读(反复读)”因此,选reread重读。
reuse 再使用;Rewrite改写;recite背诵。
9.【答案】A【解析】此处所填的词既是look back over的宾语,又是you have just read 的宾语,只有what能充当这种双重成分。
10.【答案】C【解析】scales down按比例减少;cuts down削减;此两项不合题意。
measures不能与down搭配。
只有slow与down搭配的意思“放慢”,在此合适。
11.【答案】B【解析】本段前文已经出现you,在此选one(泛指人们,我们,你)来代替you。
some one无此用法。
如果用reader,前面应加定冠词。
he不能与该段逻辑一致。
12.【答案】A【解析】此句意为“训练快速阅读所使用的工具必然与提高阅读速度有关”,因此选accelerator (快读器)。
actor演员;amplifier放大器;observer观察者。
13.【答案】D【解析】前面的faster决定了应当选than,构成比较级。
14.【答案】C【解析】此句意为“快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度,使你再也不能逐字阅读,回顾前文内容或者默读”。
enabling相当于making possible;leading引导;indicating指出,表明。
都不合题意。
只有making (使,使得)最合适。
15.【答案】B【解析】这里的意思是“速读最初会影响理解”,所以选comprehension(理解力)。
meaning意义,意思,指词或词组表示的意义;gist大意,要旨regression 回顾16.【答案】A【解析】与前半句中的not only相呼应,构成句式“不仅……,而且……”,只有选but,而nor;or或for均不能构成固定用法。
17.【答案】C【解析】本句中的主语是第三人称复数,物主代词必然是their。
18.【答案】B【解析】take与后面的for instance构成短语,意为:“以……例”,其它三项不能构成搭配。
19.【答案】D【解析】这里提到受训之前与受训之后进行比较,对比,因此选before。
20.【答案】D【解析】此处意为:在较短时间内,读完众多的材料。
