英语专业四级考试历年完形填空题答案

短文大意:这篇文章介绍了气体与液体的特性及相关理论。

26.答案:B【试题分析】本题考查对固定搭配的掌握。

【详细解答】under与condition搭配,表示“在……条件或状况下”;on与condition搭配,表示“在……条件下”;in与condition构成习惯短语,表示“身体状况良好”,而be out of condition”则表示“身体状况不好”。

这里是说“在地球表面通常的温度和压强条件下……”,故选项B为正确答案。

27.答案:A【试题分析】本题为语法题,考查对句子结构的理解。

【详细解答】由于所填词前有and这一并列连词,这里缺少一个谓语与前面的“can be”并列。

谓语动词fill意思是“使……充满”,具有使动意义,其后直接跟宾语,故选项A是正确答案。

28.答案:B【试题分析】本题为动词词义辨析题。

【详细解答】intend意为“打算,意图”,主语通常是人;tend意为“有……倾向”,后接不定式,主语可以是人也可以是物;incline意为“使(某人)倾向于,使(某人)有意思(做某事)”,常用于被动语态be inclined to;contend意为“争夺;争辩”。

这里是说“但(气体)往往会扩散到任何可能的空间”,故选项B为正确答案。

29.答案:D【试题分析】本题为语法题,考查连词的用法。

【详细解答】however表转折意为“然而”;nevertheless也表转折,意为“然而”;so表结果,但常放于句首; therefore表结果,意为“因此,所以”。

这里是说气体容易扩散,所以必须保存在密闭的容器里。

因此此处需要一个表结果关系的连词,故选项D为正确答案。

30.答案:B【试题分析】本题考查对固定搭配的掌握。

【详细解答】in the event of表示“如果发生……,万一……”;in the case of表示“在……的情况下,就……而言”; with a view of或者with a view to,意思是“以……为目的;为……起见”;with reference to意思是“关于”。

Not everyone who picks up a fishing rod or goes out with a gun is a sportsman. The sportsman first of all obeys the fish and game laws, not because he is liable to be punished as a violator, but because he knows that in the main these laws are made for his best interests.The following are some of the things that those who would qualify for membership in the sportsmanship fraternity (圈Take no more game than the bag limit provided for by the fish and game laws. The person who comes back from a trip boasting about the large number of fish or game taken is not a sportsman but a game hog (贪得无厌的捕猎者) .2. Observe the unwritten rules of fair play. This means shooting game birds only when the birds are “on the wing”. For the same reason, do not use a shotgun to shoot a rabbit or similar animal while it is sitting or standing still.3. Be careful in removing illegal or undersized fish from the hook. This should be done only after wetting the hands. This is necessary because the body of the fish is covered with a thin, protective film which will stick to your dry hands. If the hands are dry when the fish is handled, the film is torn from the body of the fish. Without the protective film, the fish is more easily attacked by diseases. If you wish to release a fish that is hooked in such a way that it will be impossible to be close to the hook as convenient. In a remarkably short time, the hook will break down and the fish will remain almost unharmed. Fish have been known to feed successfully while hooks were still in their lips.4. Be sure of the identity of your target before you shoot.
