1. 答案 c【on】
解析:本题为语义题。本题查询和题干中a winter day分配的介词,c项on与具体某一天资配时,标明在某日,最契合原文语义。所以本题选c。
烦扰选项:a选项in(在……内),b选项towards(朝……),d选项till(直到……中止),均不契合原文语义。
2. 答案a【match】
解析:本题为语义题。本题查询契合主语culinary pleasures和宾语it的动词词义。复原it指代的内容,为sunday roast。few标明很少,几乎没有的,标明否定,在句中起加强口气的作用。a项match标明相配、比得上,最契合原文语义:几乎没有啥饮食能比得上一顿周日烤肉大餐所带来的高兴。所以本题选a。
烦扰选项:b选项express(表达),c选项satisfy(使满足),d选项influence(影响),均不契合原文语义。
3. 答案b【enjoyment】

烦扰选项:a选项patience(耐性),c选项surprise(惊喜),d选项concern(担忧),均不契合原文语义。

解析:本题为逻辑题。题干中的another guilty pleasure标明另一种罪恶的高兴,to damage our health标明损伤咱们的安康,根据二者的语义共同联络,可知,罪恶暗示出对身体安康构成的损伤是断定的。d项guaranteed标明断定的,最契合原文语义。所以本题选d。
烦扰选项:a选项intensified(强化的),b选项privileged(有特权的),c选项compelled(被强逼的),均不契合原文语义。

烦扰选项:a选项under(在……下),c选项for(为了),d选项by(经过),均不契合原文语义。

解析:本题为逻辑题。根据and可知,并排联接的语义附近,根据另外两个动词reject(回绝)和and后的only toast(只烤)可知,并排的语义倾向为否定的。d项avoid标明避免,最契合原文语义。所以本题选d。
烦扰选项:a选项forget(忘掉),b选项regret(后悔),c选项finish(结束),均不契合原文语义。
8. 答案a【partially】
解析:本题为逻辑题。根据题干中的and可知,并排各成分的语义附近。根据空白处前的reject thin-crust pizzas(回绝薄皮披萨)可推知,and后的语义与回绝温度过高附近,a项partially标明有些地、不完全地,最契合原文语义:面包只烤半分熟。所以本题选a。
烦扰选项:b选项regularly(守时地),c选项easily(简略地),d选项initially(起先地),均不契合原文语义。
9. 答案d【while】
解析:本题为逻辑题。题干中studies have shown that…标明,研讨标明,丙烯酰胺能致使老鼠的神饱尝损。there is no…标明没有丙烯酰胺在人类中致癌的根据。根据二者语义联络可知,两个分句存在让步联络,d项while标明尽管,最契合原文语义。所以本题选d。

烦扰选项:a选项secondary(非有必要的),b选项external(外部的),d选项negative(否定的),均不契合原文语义。
11. 答案c【likely】
解析:本题为逻辑题。根据题干中的but可知,but前后语义相反,have no hard scientific proof标明没有科学根据,所以c项likely标明很有可以的,最契合原文语义。所以本题选c。
烦扰选项:a选项insufficient(缺乏的),b选项bound(必定的),d选项slow(弛禁的),均不契合原文语义。

14. 答案 d【after all】
解析:本题为逻辑题。根据空白处逻辑词的方位可知,本题查询上下两句的逻辑联络。分析两句语义:根据避免原则,有人认为遵循fsa的主张是正确的;在有根据证明吸烟与癌症有关之前,我们就一向在谣传吸烟会致癌。由两句语义可知,后句和前句间存在让步联络,d项after all标明究竟,归于让步联络,最契合原文语义。所以本题选d。
烦扰选项:a选项as usual(像往常相同),b选项in particular(特别),c选项by definition(依照界说),均不契合原文语义。
15. 答案c【connection】
解析:本题为逻辑题。根据题干可知,before联接的两个语句存在时刻上的先后次序,即smoking和cancer间存在因果联络的谣传在先,根据(evidence)在后。c项connection标明相关,最契合原文语义:在有根据证明吸烟与癌症有关之前,我们就一向在谣传吸烟会致癌。所以本题选c。

解析:本题为逻辑题。根据空白处逻辑词的方位,可知,本题查询上下两句的逻辑联络。上句语义为:那样的话,日子还值得一过吗?空白场地址句的语义为:fsa说这并不是要告诉我们中止吃烧烤食物,而是要告诉我们削减烧烤食物的摄入。由二者语义可知,空白场地址句在对上句的疑问进一步阐释和弄清。a项to be fair标明说真话、公正来讲,最契合原文语义。所以本题选a。
烦扰选项:b选项for instance(例如),c选项to be brief(简言之),d选项in general(总的来说),均不契合原文语义。
18. 答案 b【entirely】
解析:本题为逻辑题。根据题干中的not … but可知,前后两个分句间存在转机联络:后半句reduce their lifetime intake标明削减摄入;前半句cut out roast foods ____ 标明中止吃烧烤食物____。b项entirely标明完全地,最契合原文语义:fsa并不是说让我们完全不吃烧烤食物,而是削减摄入量。所以本题选b。
烦扰选项:a选项reluctantly(牵强地),c选项gradually(逐步地),d选项carefully(留心肠),均不契合原文语义。
19. 答案c【campaign】
解析:本题为语义题。题干指出,他们的____存在给人一种过于强逼和过火维护的形象的风险。复原代词their,为fsa’s。联系上句可知,fsa发布的警告会让我们误认为烧烤食物完全不能吃。c项campaign标明为完成某种意图而进行的活动,最契合原文语义。所以本题选c。

read the following four texts. answer the questions below each text by choosing a, b, c or d. mark your answers on the answer sheet. (40 points)
text 1
a group of labour mps, among them yvette cooper, are bringing in the new year with a call to institute a uk “town of culture” award. the proposal is that it should sit alongside the existing city … but they generally lack the resources to put together a bid to beat their bigger competitors. a town of culture award could, it is argued, become an annual event, attracting funding and creating jobs.
some might see the proposal as a booby prize for the fact that britain is no longer able to apply for the much more prestigious title of european capital of culture, a sought—after award bagged by glasgow in 1990 and liverpool in 2008. a cynic might speculate that the uk is on the verge of disappearing into an endless fever of self-celebration in its desperation to reinvent itself for the post-brexit world: after town of culture, who knows what will follow village of culture? suburb of culture? hamlet of culture?
it is also wise to recall that …to the community. the really successful holders of such titles are those that do a great deal more than fill hotel bedrooms and bring in high-profile arts events and good press for a year. … but it can be done: glasgow’s year as european capital of culture can certainly be seen as one of a complex series of factors that have turned the city into the powerhouse of art, music and theatre that it remains today.
a “town of culture” could be not just about the arts but about honouring a town’s peculiarities—helping sustain its high street, supporting local facilities and above all celebrating its people and turn it into action.
21. copper and her colleague argue that a “town of culture” award would ______.
[a] consolidate the town city ties in britain
[b] promote cooperation among britain’s towns
[c] increase the economic strength of britain’s towns
[d] focus britain’s limited resources on cultural events
答案【c】increase the economic strength of britain’s towns
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词“town of culture”定位到第一段最终一句:a town of culture award could, it is argued, become an annual event, attracting funding and creating jobs。所以本题选c。
22. according to paragraph 2, the proposal might be regarded by some as ______.
[a] a sensible compromise
[b] a self-deceiving attempt
[c] an eye-catching bonus
[d] an inaccessible target
答案【b】a self-deceiving attempt
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词paragraph 2定位到第二段,在第二段中首要谈论了批判者对这一奖项的观点,其间在②句中说到:the uk is on the verge of disappearing into an endless fever of self-celebration…。其间a self-deceiving attempt是self-celebration的同义替换。所以本题选b。
23. the author suggests that a title holder is successful only if it ______.
[a] endeavor to maintain its image
[b] meets the aspiration of its people
[c] brings its local arts to prominence
[d] commits to its long-term growth
答案【d】commits to its long-term growth
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词title holder定位到第三段③句,该句提出此类头衔成功的持有者做的作业,而在前一句中说到的糟糕的文下一年无法给社区带来耐久的利益:leaving no lasting benefits to the community,②句与③句构成了比照。所以本题选d。
24. “glasgow” is mentioned in paragraph 3 to present ______. [a] a contrasting case
[b] a supporting example
[c] a background story
[d] a related topic
答案【b】a supporting example
解析:本题为例子题。此题查询了学生对论据的判别。根据题干要害词glasgow和paragraph 3定位到第三段最终一句:but it can be done: glasgow’s year as european capital of culture can certainly be seen as one of a complex series of factors that have turned the city into the powerhouse of art, music and theatre that it remains today。所以本题选b。
25. what is the author’s attitude towards the proposal?
[a] skeptical
[b] objective
[c] favorable
[d] critical
答案【c】favorable
解析:本题为情绪题。题干问询作者对the proposal的情绪,而整篇文章是作者一对这个提议的分析,其间最终一段:a “town of culture” could be not just about the arts but about honouring a town’s peculiarities—helping sustain its high street, supporting local facilities and above all celebrating its people and turn it into action是对第一段最终一句:a town of culture award could, it is argued, become an annual event, attracting funding and creating jobs的进一步必定。所以本题选c。

scientific publishing has long been a licence to print money. scientists need journals in which to publish their research, so they will supply the articles without monetary reward. other scientists perform the specialised work of peer review also for free, because it is a central element in the acquisition of status and the production of scientific knowledge.
with the content of …when the rest of the publishing industry is in an existential crisis.
the dutch giant elsevier, which claims to publish 25% of the scientific papers produced in the world, made profits of …figures seem to rise unstoppably despite increasingly desperate efforts to change them.
the most drastic, and thoroughly illegal, reaction…passing on copies they have themselves legally accessed, shows the legal ecosystem has lost legitimacy among its users and must be transformed so that it works for all participants.
in britain the move towards open access publishing has been driven by funding bodies. in some ways it has been very successful. more than half of all british scientific research is now published under open access terms: either freely available from the moment of publication, or paywalled for a year or more so that the publishers can make a profit before being placed on general release.
yet the new system has not … preparing an article. these range from around 500 to $5,000. a report last year pointed out that the costs both of subscriptions and of these “article preparation costs” had been steadily rising at a rate above inflation. in some ways the scientific publishing …. firms who run the market places. in both cases, we need a rebalancing of power.
26. scientific publishing is seen as “a licence to print money” partly because .
[a] its funding has enjoyed a steady increase
[b] its marketing strategy has been successful
[c] its payment for peer review is reduced
[d] its content acquisition costs nothing
答案【d】its content acquisition costs nothing
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词a licence to print money定位到第一段①句,但此句是第一段的观念句,因而需要在后边语句中找答案:第一段②句supply the articles without monetary reward和第一段③句perform the specialised work of peer review also for free。d项its content acquisition costs nothing是对这两句内容的归纳。所以本题选d。
27. according to paragraphs 2 and 3, scientific publishers elsevier have .
[a] thrived mainly on university libraries
[b] gone through an existential crisis
[c] revived the publishing industry
[d] financed researchers generously
答案【a】thrived mainly on university libraries
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词elsevier定位到第三段:the dutch giant elsevier … made profits of more than 900m last year, while uk universities alone spent more than 210m in 2016 to enable researchers to access their own publicly funded research。所以本题选a。
28. how does the author feel about the success of sci-hub?
[a] relieved.
[b] puzzled.
[c] concerned.
[d] encouraged.
答案【d】encouraged
解析:本题为情绪题。根据题干要害词the success of sci-hub定位到第四段②句:the legal ecosystem has lost legitimacy among its users and must be transformed so that it works for all participants。所以本题选d。
29. it can be learned from paragraphs 5 and 6 that open access terms . [a] allow publishers some room to make money
[b] render publishing much easier for scientists
[c] reduce the cost of publication substantially
[d] free universities from financial burdens
答案【a】allow publishers some room to make money
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词open access terms定位到第五段③句:so that the publishers can make a profit before being placed on general release。所以本题选a。
30. which of the following characteristics the scientific publishing model?
[a] trial subscription is offered.
[b] labour triumphs over status.
[c] costs are well controlled.
[d] the few feed on the many.
答案【d】the few feed on the many.
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词the scientific publishing model定位到第六段⑤句:huge profits are made by a few big firms who run the market places。所以本题选d。

progressives often support diversity mandates as a path to equality and a way to level the playing field. but all too often such policies are an insincere form of virtue-signaling that benefits only the most privileged and does little to help average people.
a pair of bills sponsored by massachusetts state senator jason lewis and house speaker pro tempore patricia haddad, to ensure “gender parity” on boards and commissions, provide a case in point.
haddad and lewis are…and commissions will be required to set aside 50 percent of board seats for women by 2022.
the bills are similar to a measure recently adopted …brown admitted that the law, which expressly classifies people on the basis of sex, is probably unconstitutional.
the us supreme court frowns on sex-based classifications unless they are designed to address an “important” policy interest. … the constitutional guarantee of “equal protection”.
but are such government mandates even necessary? female participation on corporate boards may not currently mirror the percentage of women in the general population, but so what?
the number of women on corporate … the boards of global corporations increased by 54 percent.
requiring companies to make gender the primary qualification for board membership will inevitably lead to less experienced private sector boards. that is exactly what happened when norway adopted a nationwide corporate gender quota.
writing in the new republic, alice lee notes that increasing the number of opportunities for board membership without increasing the pool of qualified women to serve on such boards has led to a “golden skirt” phenomenon. where the same elite women scoop up multiple seats on a variety of boards.
next time somebody pushes … self-serving measures that make their sponsors feel good but do little to help average women.
31. the author believes that the bills sponsored by lewis and haddad will ______.
[a] help little to reduce gender bias
[b] pose a threat to the state government
[c] raise women’s position in politics
[d] greatly broaden career options
答案【a】help little to reduce gender bias
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词the bills sponsored by lewis and haddad定位到第二段。段末谈论provide a case in point回指上文第一段的does little to help average people。所以本题选a。
32. which of the following is true of the california measure?
[a] it has irritated private business owners.
[b] it is welcomed by the supreme court.
[c] it may go against the constitution.
[d] it will settle the prior controversies.
答案【c】it may go against the constitution.
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词california定位到第四段。由第四段末句is probably unconstitutional可知加州的办法可以违宪。所以本题选c。
33. the author mentions the study by catalyst to illustrate ______.
[a] the harm from arbitrary board decision
[b] the importance of constitutional guarantees
[c] the pressure on women in global corporations
[d] the needlessness of government interventions
答案【d】the needlessness of government interventions
解析:本题为例子题。根据题干要害词the study by catalyst定位到第七段,该比方要证明的观念在上文第六段,由问句but are such government mandates even necessary?可知作者对该做法的必要性标明质疑。所以本题选d。
34. norway’s adoption of a nationwide corporate gender quota has led to ______.
[a] the underestimation of elite women’s role
[b] the objection to female participation on bards
[c] the entry of unqualified candidates into the board
[d] the growing tension between labor and management
答案【c】the entry of unqualified candidates into the board
解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词norway’s adoption of a nationwide corporate gender quota与lead to定位到第8段①②句,原文①句中的lead to less experienced private sector boards与c项是同义表达。所以本题选c。
35. which of the following can be inferred from the text?
[a] women’s need in employment should be considered.
[b] feasibility should be a prime concern in policymaking.
[c] everyone should try hard to promote social justice.
[d] major social issues should be the focus of legislation.
答案【b】feasibility should be a prime concern in policymaking.
解析:本题为主旨粗心题。根据首段末句but all too often such policies… does little to help average people可以判别全文的豪情基调是对某方针的质疑。所以本题选b。

last thursday, the french senate passed a digital services tax, which would impose an entirely new tax on large … to targeting advertising based on user data, and the tax applies to gross revenue from such services. many french politicians and media outlets have referred to this as a “gafa tax,” meaning that it is designed to apply primarily to companies such as 谷歌, apple, facebook and amazon—in other words, multinational tech companies based in the united states.
the digital services tax now awaits the … , with the united states trade representative opening an investigation into whether the tax discriminates against american companies, which in turn could lead to trade sanctions against france.
the french tax is not just a unilateral …. these have included britain’s dpt (diverted profits tax), australia’s maal (multinational anti-avoidance law), and india’s sep (significant economic presence) test, to name but a few. at the same time, the european union, spain, britain and several other countries have all seriously contemplated digital services taxes.
these unilateral developments differ in their specifics, but they are all designed to tax multinationals on income and…. in other words, they al1 share a view that the international tax system has failed to keep up with the current economy.
in response to these many unilateral measures, the organization for economic cooperation and development (oecd) is currently working with 131 countries to reach a consensus by the end of 2021 on an international solution. …
france’s planned tax is a clear warning: unless a broad consensus can be reached on reforming the international tax system, other nations are likely to follow suit, and american companies will face a cascade of different taxes from dozens of nations that will prove burdensome and costly.

[b] protect french companies’ interests
[c] impose a levy on tech multinationals

[b] the current international tax system needs upgrading
[c] tech multinationals’ monopoly should be prevented

解析:本题为细节题。根据题干要害词unilateral 与 share the opinion定位到第四段末句:in other words, they all share a view that the international tax system has failed to keep up with the current economy,b项needs upgrading是对原文failed to keep up with的合理判别。所以本题选b。

we know that a typical infant will instinctively gaze into its mother’s eyes, and she will look back. this mutual gaze is a major part of the attachment between mother and child. in adulthood, looking at someone else in a pleasant way can be a complimentary sign of paying attention. it can catch someone’s attention in a crowded room. “eye contact and smile” can signal availability and confidence, a common-sense notion supported in studies by psychologist monica moore.

neuroscientist bonnie auyeung found that the hormone oxytocin increased the amount of eye contact from men toward the interviewer during a brief

interview when the direction of their gaze was recorded. this was also found in high-functioning men with some autistic spectrum symptoms, who may tend to avoid eye contact. specific brain regions that respond during direct gaze are being explored by other researches, using advanced methods of brain scanning.
43.
with the use of eye-tracking technology, julia minson of the harvard kennedy school of government concluded that eye contact can signal very different kinds of messages, depending on the situation. while eye contact may be a sign of connection or trust in friendly situations, it’s more likely to be associated with dominance or intimidation in adversarial situations. “whether you’re a politician or a parent, it might be helpful to keep in mind that trying to maintain eye contact may backfire if you’re trying to convince someone who has a different set of beliefs than you,” said minson.
44.
when we look at a face or a picture, our eyes pause on one spot at a time, often on the eyes or mouth. these pauses typically occur at about three per second, and the eyes then jump to another spot, until several important points in the image are registered like a series of snapshots. how the whole image is then assembled and perceived is still a mystery although it is the subject of current research.
45.
in people who score high in a test of neuroticism, a personality dimension associated with self-consciousness and anxiety, eye contact triggered more activity associated with avoidance, according to the finnish researcher jari hietanen and colleagues, “our findings indicate that people do not only feel different when they are the centre of attention but that their brain reactions also differ.” a more direct finding is that people who scored high for negative emotions like anxiety looked at others for shorter periods of time and reported more comfortable feelings when others did not look directly at them.
41. 答案【c】eye contact can be a friendly social signal.
解析:本题下段中pleasant和complimentary对应c项中的friendly,且下段中多次呈现sign、signal。所以本题选c。
42. 答案【e】biological factors behind eye contact are being investigated.
解析:本题下段呈现neuroscientist、hormone oxytocin和autistic spectrum symptoms等生物学名词,对应e项中的biological factors。且本题下段中explored与e项中investigated是近义词。所以本题选e。
43. 答案【g】eye contact can also be aggressive.
解析:因为本题下段呈现了friendly和signal,考生易错选c项。可是本题下段偏重的是it’s more likely to be associated with dominance or intimidation in adversarial situations(在仇视的情况下,目光交流更可以与分配或威吓联络在一同),g项是对这句话的总结概略。所以本题选g。
44. 答案【a】eye fixations are brief.
解析:本题下段多次呈现的pause(中止)是a项中fixations(固定)的近义词。且a项中的brief是对原文three per second的归纳总结。所以本题选a。
45. 答案【d】personality can affect how a person reacts to eye contact.
解析:本题下段首句呈现要害词personality。所以本题选d。

(48) despite attempts by the church to suppress this new generation of logicians and rationalists, more explanations for how the universe functioned were being made, and at a rate that the people could no longer ignore. it was with these great revelations that a new kind of philosophy founded in reason was born.

主题:培育习气的重要性
范文:
as is vividly depicted in the first photo, a girl who is absorbed in her homework thinks that only by finishing it as soon as possible could she be reassured, which successfully attracts our attention. opposed to the former, what makes the second photo more attractive is the fact that a boy who is lounging on the sofa just waits until the last minute to do the homework. clearly, the photos have shown an implied meaning that it is necessary to develop good habits, which needs to be given further analysis.
leading factors behind the above phenomenon vary with each person. however, from my standpoint, the following two should rank the top two. on the top of the list is that positive and correct notions on how to deal properly with this kind of phenomenon have been highly publicized. in addition, there is the other point that no one can ignore. it is also widely accepted that more and more people view the quality of having good habits as a lifelong process and reality involve themselves in various forms of improvement.
in summary, the analysis i have made so far should at least make readers aware of the event. of all the measures, it is people’s actions that matter. if a person desires to achieve his own success, he should act in this way.
