2026雅思英语阅读高频考点模拟卷附答案解析及备考指导一、单选题（共20题） 1：In the following text, which word is most likely to be a synonym for "vital"? A. Essential B. Harmful C. Temporary D. Unimportant 答案：A 解析：The word "vital" means extremely important or necessary. "Essential" is a synonym for "vital" as it also implies something that is crucial or indispensable. "Harmful" means causing damage or injury, "Temporary" means lasting for a short time, and "Unimportant" means not significant or worth considering. Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 2：Choose the word that best completes the sentence: "The speaker's enthusiasm was so __________ that it was contagious." A. Dull B. Engaging C. Boring D. Flat 答案：B 解析："Engaging" means holding one's attention or interest, which fits well in the context of the sentence, suggesting that the speaker's enthusiasm was so captivating that it spread to others. "Dull" and "Boring" both mean lacking interest, which does not fit the context. "Flat" means lacking depth or excitement, also not fitting the context. Thus, "B" is the correct answer. 3：Which of the following sentences is an example of active voice? A. The book was written by the author. B. The author wrote the book. C. The book has been written by the author. D. The author has written the book. 答案：B 解析：Active voice is used when the subject of the sentence performs an action. In option B, "The author wrote the book" clearly shows that the subject, "the author," is performing the action of writing. The other options use passive voice, where the subject is acted upon. Therefore, "B" is the correct answer. 4：What is the main purpose of the following paragraph? "The Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate. It has made it possible to connect with people from all over the world instantly. This has had a profound impact on our daily lives, making information more accessible and our relationships more diverse." A. To describe the history of the Internet B. To discuss the impact of the Internet on communication C. To analyze the benefits of the use of the Internet D. To argue against the use of the Internet 答案：B 解析：The paragraph focuses on how the Internet has changed communication and the effects this has had on daily life. It does not aim to describe the history of the Internet, analyze benefits, or argue against its use. Therefore, "B" is the correct answer. 5：Choose the word that is closest in meaning to "dispel." A. Confirm B. Distract C. Eliminate D. Misrepresent 答案：C 解析："Dispel" means to remove or drive away (a belief, fear, or suspicion). "Eliminate" is the closest in meaning as it also implies removing something. "Confirm" means to establish as true, "Distract" means to divert attention, and "Misrepresent" means to give a false or misleading account. Thus, "C" is the correct answer. 6：The author uses the following example to illustrate the concept of "cognitive dissonance." What is this concept? "The man who has been driving a car for many years suddenly switches to a bicycle and finds himself constantly reminding himself that he is safe on the bike." A. The discomfort that arises from holding two contradictory beliefs B. The satisfaction of achieving a goal C. The fear of change D. The excitement of new experiences 答案：A 解析："Cognitive dissonance" refers to the discomfort that arises from holding two contradictory beliefs or from engaging in behavior that conflicts with one's beliefs or values. The example of the man constantly reminding himself of his safety on the bike illustrates this discomfort when his behavior (riding a bike) conflicts with his beliefs (safety in a car). Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 7：Which of the following sentence structures is most effective for emphasizing the importance of the subject? A. The subject + verb + object B. It is the subject + that + clause C. The subject + to be + adjective D. The subject + verb + adverbial clause 答案：B 解析: To emphasize the importance of the subject, using "it is the subject + that + clause" (also known as the nominalization of the subject) is effective. This structure draws attention to the subject by placing it in a subordinate clause. The other structures do not emphasize the subject in the same way. Thus, "B" is the correct answer. 8：In the context of the text, what does the word "ineluctable" most likely mean? "The ineluctable march of time is a constant reminder of our own mortality." A. Irresistible B. Temporary C. Unpredictable D. Unnecessary 答案：A 解析："Ineluctable" means something that cannot be avoided or resisted. In the given sentence, it is used to describe the unstoppable nature of time, which is a constant reminder of mortality. "Irresistible" fits this context as it implies something that cannot be avoided. "Temporary" means short-lived, "Unpredictable" means not able to be predicted, and "Unnecessary" means not needed. Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 9：The following sentence contains a sentence error. Which part of the sentence needs to be corrected? "The more you exercise, the healthier you will become, and the more you eat, the healthier you will become." A. "The more you exercise" B. "the healthier you will become" C. "and the more you eat" D. "the healthier you will become" 答案：C 解析: The sentence contains a logical error because the two clauses are not related in a way that makes sense. The clause "the more you eat, the healthier you will become" is incorrect because eating more does not necessarily lead to better health. The correct sentence would be "The more you exercise, the healthier you will become, but eating too much can be harmful." Thus, "C" is the correct answer. 10：Choose the word that best fits the blank in the following sentence: "The evidence presented was so __________ that it was accepted without question." A. Convincing B. Disputable C. Doubtful D. Questionable 答案：A 解析: "Convincing" means likely to persuade someone, which fits the context of the sentence where the evidence was accepted without question. "Disputable" means capable of being disputed, "Doubtful" means not certain, and "Questionable" means open to doubt. None of these words fit the context as well as "convincing." Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 11：The author suggests that the following statement is an example of a fallacy. What fallacy is it? "The sky is falling! We have to prepare for the end of the world!" A. False Dichotomy B. Hasty Generalization C. Appeal to Fear D. Straw Man 答案：C 解析: The statement is an example of an appeal to fear, where an argument is based on creating fear to persuade others. "False Dichotomy" is presenting a situation as having only two possibilities when there are more, "Hasty Generalization" is making a broad generalization based on a small sample, and "Straw Man" is misrepresenting an opponent's argument to make it easier to attack. Therefore, "C" is the correct answer. 12：Which of the following is the correct form of the verb "begin" in the past tense? A. Begun B. Begins C. Begging D. Beginned 答案：A 解析: The correct form of the verb "begin" in the past tense is "begun." "Begins" is the present tense form, "Begging" is the present participle form, and "Beginned" is an incorrect past tense form. Thus, "A" is the correct answer. 13：In the following sentence, what is the main clause? "The fact that he was late for the meeting was due to the heavy traffic." A. "The fact that he was late for the meeting" B. "was due to the heavy traffic" C. "due to the heavy traffic" D. "was due to" 答案：A 解析: The main clause is the independent clause that can stand alone as a sentence. In this case, "The fact that he was late for the meeting" is the main clause because it is complete and independent. The rest of the sentence is a dependent clause that provides additional information about the main clause. Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 14：Choose the word that best fits the blank in the following sentence: "The company's new policy has been met with __________, from both employees and customers." A. Enthusiasm B. Contempt C. Indifference D. Approval 答案：C 解析: "Indifference" means a lack of interest or concern, which fits the context of the sentence where both employees and customers have responded with a lack of interest. "Enthusiasm" means excitement or interest, "Contempt" means scorn or disdain, and "Approval" means acceptance or consent. None of these words fit the context as well as "indifference." Therefore, "C" is the correct answer. 15：What is the purpose of the following sentence in the text? "It is important to note that while technology has brought many benefits, it also has its drawbacks." A. To introduce a new topic B. To summarize the previous points C. To provide a counterargument D. To explain a complex concept 答案：C 解析: The sentence is used to introduce a counterargument, acknowledging that while technology has benefits, it also has drawbacks. This is a way to present a balanced view or to address potential criticism. It is not introducing a new topic, summarizing previous points, or explaining a complex concept. Therefore, "C" is the correct answer. 16：Choose the word that best completes the sentence: "The author argues that the traditional method of teaching is no longer __________ in the face of the advancements in technology." A. Effective B. Viable C. Practical D. Acceptable 答案：B 解析: "Viable" means capable of being successfully maintained or operated, which fits the context of the sentence discussing the effectiveness of traditional teaching methods in the presence of technological advancements. "Effective" means successful in producing a desired or intended result, "Practical" means capable of being done, and "Acceptable" means capable of being accepted. None of these words fit the context as well as "viable." Therefore, "B" is the correct answer. 17：The author uses the following example to illustrate the concept of "overgeneralization." What is this concept? "The student who received an A on the first test believes they will receive an A on all future tests." A. The tendency to generalize from a small sample size B. The act of simplifying a complex issue C. The process of forming conclusions based on personal experiences D. The belief that one's own opinions are always correct 答案：A 解析: "Overgeneralization" is the tendency to generalize from a small sample size or to make broad assumptions based on limited evidence. The example of the student assuming they will receive an A on all future tests because of one good performance is an example of overgeneralization. "The act of simplifying a complex issue" refers to oversimplification, "The process of forming conclusions based on personal experiences" refers to personal bias, and "The belief that one's own opinions are always correct" refers to egocentric bias. Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 18：Which of the following is the correct form of the verb "remember" in the past perfect tense? A. Remembered B. Remember C. Remembering D. Remembered 答案：A 解析: The correct form of the verb "remember" in the past perfect tense is "remembered." This tense is used to describe an action that was completed before another past action. "Remember" is the simple past tense, "Remembering" is the present participle form, and "Remembered" is the past perfect tense as well, but the question asks for the correct form, which is "A." 19：Choose the word that best fits the blank in the following sentence: "The company's new product line has been a success, with sales figures that are __________ year-on-year." A. Increasing B. Decreasing C. Stable D. Fluctuating 答案：A 解析: "Increasing" means growing larger or higher, which fits the context of the sentence where the sales figures are improving year-on-year. "Decreasing" means getting smaller or lower, "Stable" means not changing, and "Fluctuating" means changing unpredictably. None of these words fit the context as well as "increasing." Therefore, "A" is the correct answer. 20：The author concludes the text by stating that the following. What is the main point of the conclusion? "The debate over whether technology is beneficial or detrimental to society is ongoing. However, it is clear that we must approach it with a balanced perspective and consider the long-term consequences of our actions." A. Technology is the only solution to societal problems B. Technology has no negative effects on society C. A balanced perspective is necessary when considering the impact of technology D. The long-term consequences of technology use are not yet known 答案：C 解析: The conclusion emphasizes the need for a balanced perspective when considering the impact of technology and the importance of thinking about the long-term consequences of our actions. It does not claim that technology is the only solution, that it has no negative effects, or that the long-term consequences are not yet known. Therefore, "C" is the correct answer. 二、多选题（共10题） 21：Which of the following factors contribute to the effectiveness of a presentation? A. Clear and concise language B.

The speaker's ability to engage the audience is crucial for maintaining their interest. D. A strong opening statement can capture the audience's attention right from the start. E.

Therefore, "ABCD" are the correct options, while "E" is not a contributing factor to the effectiveness of a presentation. 22：In the given text, the author uses which of the following techniques to develop an argument?

Addressing common misconceptions can clarify misunderstandings and support the author's position. E. Emotional appeal may be used, but it is not specified in the text that this technique is employed.
