11、的。valuable珍贵的;appropriate合适的,适当的;convenient方便的,便利的;favorite最喜欢的。语言并不是人类选择的结果,而是人类在进化过程中慢慢发展起来的,对人类来说,应当是珍贵的。 3.A 此处意思是:语言的发展增加了人类未来的成就和文化进步的可能性。attainments成就;feasibility可行性;entertainments娱乐;evolution进化. 4。D此处意为:许多语言学家认为进化使人们产生和具备了语言的能力。固定短语be responsible for对负责,是的原由。其它选项不与for搭配。 5。C 根据语法分析,空格后应是一个宾语
12、从句,而A,B,D三项后都不能接从句做直接宾语。confirm(确认)+名词;inform(通知)sb.of sth.;convince(使某人确信) sb。of sth. 6.D 固定搭配provide sb.with sth.意为“向(人)提供(物)” 7.B 此处意为:我们高度发达的大脑是我们具备了其它低等动物所不具备的语言能力。显然,这里是把人和低等动物相比较。因此选organisms有机体,生物体。 8。A 此句意思是:人类的语言能力是与生俱来的,但语言本身也在逐渐发展,所以这种能力应该是潜在的.potential潜力;performance履行;preference偏爱;passi
13、on激情。 9.A 此句句义是:语言本身作为童年时期大脑生长的一种功能,其发展是缓慢的.as (作为,当作)合乎题意.Like作为介词的意思是“像一样”. 10.B 此句意为:语言的发展有一个关键期,人体的成长是生物变化的过程.biological生物的;ideological思想上的;social社会的;psychological心理的。 11。A 此处意为:目前人们对“先天论”评论观点不一,但是支持某些天生能力的证据却是确凿无疑的。reviews评论;reference参考;reaction反应;recommendation推荐。 12.C 从11题可看出,作者是倾向于先天论的,为了进一步
14、证明先天论是有道理的,作者选择了以学校为例加以说明,因此这里应填一个表示递进关系的词Indeed(甚至)。 13.D 此处意思是:越来越多的学校发现在什么年级学外语较容易,根据常识(低年级学外语较容易)以及后文的Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults可以选定答案. 14.B 此处意为:通过接触多种语言,孩子们可以学会好几种语言。be exposed to是固定搭配,接触到。reveal(显露)sth.to sb,不合题意,因本题中的them指languages。其余选项
15、不与to搭配。engage in从事;be involved in参与。 15.C 此句意思是:一旦母语的规则被深深印入脑海中,成年人就很难再学好另一种语言.rules规则,规律;regulations规定;formations构成,构造;constitutions宪法,章程。 16.A 分析上下文的逻辑关系,从句意思是:语言的某些方面肯定是先天的。主句意思是:语言不会在与人隔绝的状况下自行发展。前后应为转折关系。 17。D 此句意为:与人隔绝的儿童不能掌握好一门语言。isolated孤立的,与人隔绝的;distinguished区别的,杰出的;different不同的;protected受到
16、保护的。 18。D 此句总结前几句,意为:必须通过与他人交往,语言才能够发展。interaction相互作用;exposition暴露;comparison比较;contrast对比。19。A 根据分析,本句中的“this”和“even more basic”分别指代上句的“interaction with other human beings”和“necessary,此处所填词对应上文中的language development。也就是说,language acquisition语言习得。appreciation欣赏,感激;requirement要求;alternative转移,转变,转换。
17、 20.C 本句功能是以另一种方式解释前文中的“imitative, learned behavior.(模仿性的后天行为)。In other words换言之,换句话说;As a result结果是;After all毕竟;Above all首先。完形填空2 Many students find the experience of attending university lectures to be a confusing and frustrating experience.

32、.Another habit which _10_ down the speed of reading is vocalizationsounding 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 sl

38、1.D 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。A 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。C 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.B 此处的意思是“大多数人早
39、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.A 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.C 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.D 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;I
40、n fact事实上;Logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。 Unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句义。 8。B 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.A 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。C 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.B 本段前文已经出现you,在此选one(
41、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。A 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.D 前面的faster决定了应当选than,构成比较级。 14.C 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 (
42、使,使得)最合适。 15.B 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.A 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.C 本句中的主语是第三人称复数,物主代词必然是their。 18。B 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。D 这里提到受训之前与受训之后进行比较,对比,因此选before。 20。D 此处意为:在较短时间内,
43、读完众多的材料。master掌握;go over复习;present呈现,展现;此三项均不妥;只有get through (读完)最恰当. 完形填空4If you were to begin a new job tomorrow, you would bring with you some basic strengths and weaknesses。Success or _1_ in your work would depend, to _2_ great extent, _3_ your ability to use your strengths and weaknesses to the
44、 best advantage。_4_ the utmost importance is your attitude。A person _5_ begins a job convinced that he isnt going to like it or is _6_ that he is going to ail is exhibiting a weakness which can only hinder his success.On the other hand, a person who is secure _7_ his belief that he is probably as ca
