A:and
B:less
C:more
D:or答案：B解析：连接词辫析。although，尽管，since , because , therefore表示原因。本句话是指“尽管笔直、宽阔的现代化公路很好，但是这样的公路并不一直让人满意”，有转折的意思，所以选A。
词汇搭配题。" stable（稳定的）“、 " splendid（杰出的）”和“complicated（复杂的）”一般不能用来修饰“roads"。
由于后面提到了“direct route"，可见指的是很少急转弯的公路，所以选择修饰可数名词的“few"，表达较少的意思。
根据上下文，如果高速公路总是保持笔直，对于驾驶者来说是没有什么乐趣而言的，因此正确答案为“enjoyable"。
介词“by”和动词“pass"搭配表示“经过，逝去的”意思，其他三个词搭配错误。
副词“furthermore”表明它是对上一句的补充，即高速公路不仅经过景区和乡村，往往还把庞大的都市中心区连接起来，所以选B。
词语搭配题。表达“交通拥挤”时，用“heavy”来修饰“traffic"。
前面提到了“rush hours " (交通高峰期），后面跟的是一个非限定性定语从句，选项中只有“when”可以作表示时间的引导词。
从上下文判断，此句应该是条件句，即如果你不着急，还有“always another route to take（另外一条路可选）"，因此选项B正确。
根据主句中的“older……roads”可推断此空需要填一个比较意义的副词，以构成对比关系。relatively“相应地，相对地”为正确答案。其他三个词的意思分别为：regularly“有规律地，定期地”; respectively“各自地”; reasonably“有理由地”。
根据此空前后词及结构可断定此空应使用比较级，故可排除选项A和D。另外，根据上下文可推测此空应为“less"，因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路，与常识不符。
从下文的“others'‘可知此空正确答案为选项D。
根据上文的“slopes”和下文的“hillsides”就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词，选项A (rocks）意义不符，故只有B( cliffs)“悬崖”为正确答案。
根据题目和选项可断定此空应为“towns”的后置定语，由此可猜测句义为“位于深谷中的城镇”, lie是“位于”，是不及物动词，不能以过去分词的形式出现作名词的后置修饰语，故正确答案为“lie”的现在分词形式“lying"。

Highways in the US
The United States is well-known for its network of major highways designed to help a driver get from one
place to another in the shortest possible time.________（51)these wide. modern roads are generally
smooth and well maintained,with__________(52)sharp curves and many straight sections,a direct route
is not always the most__________________(53)one.Large highways often pass_________(54)scenic areas and
interesting small towns.Furthermore,these highways generally_______________(55)large urban centers which
means that they become crowded with_(56)traffic during rush hours,when the"fast,direct"
way becomes a very slow route.However,there is_____________(57)always another route to take if you are not
in a hurry.Not far from the____________(58)new"superhighways",there are often older,________________(59)
heavily traveled roads which go through the countryside._________(60)of these are good two-lane roads;
others are uneven roads ________ (61)through the country.These secondary routes may go up steep
slopes along hilly__________ （62)or down frightening hillsides to towns___________(63)in deep valleys.
Though these are less direct routes,longer and slower,they generally go to places____________(64)the air
is clean and the scenery is beautiful,and the driver may have a chance to get a fresh,clean_____________ （65)
of the world._________(52)
A:little
B:few
C:much
D:many答案：B解析：根据后面的“a direct route is not always...”可知，这里需要表示让步的连词。
Although引导的状语从句说的都是公路好的、有利的方面，道路上急弯少也是有利的方 面。弯道是可数名词，所以选B。
前面的状语从句说的是公路好的、有利的方面，但后面的语气一转，提到“一条直的路 线并不总是令人愉快的”。所以选C。
pass by是固定搭配，意为“经过”，符合句意。pass to意为“转到”;pass into意为“变 成”;pass over意为“忽略”。
该句的意思是：这些公路一般都连接着大城市中心。connect意为“连接，相连”，符合 句意。
heavy traffic是“交通拥挤”的意思，符合句意。
此句意思是：如果你不着急，几乎总能有另一条路可走。almost意思是“几乎，差不多”, 符合句意。
空格后是形容词new，该空格处应填副词。后面句子中的older是比较级，所以new也 应有比较的意思。所以选A。
在此空格前出现比较级“older"，本空格与“older”为并列成分，也应为比较级。根据句 意“通往乡村的路一般情况一下不会出现交通阻塞”，所以选择一含有否定意义的“less”最为恰当。
后面有others，表示“另一些”，则此空应表示“一些”。故选D。
drive驾驶；cross穿过；curv。沿曲线行进；travel通过，旅游。这里句子的意思是“这些道 路，有些是平坦的双车道，有些则不平坦，蜿蜒经过乡下”。故选C。
空前的意思是：这些辅线可以爬上陡峭的斜坡。。从上下文看，爬上陡峭的斜坡必然沿 着悬崖延伸，而不可能沿着岩石、大道或小路延伸。
lying意思是“坐落”,lying是lie的现在分词形式。
这是一个定语从句，关系副词where引导的句子修饰先行词places。
此句的意思是“有机会欣赏到人间清新、洁净的景色”。view意为“景色”，符合句意。 -

空格前一句“We can say that, as nation, America begins with that hope.”（我们可以认为，美国是随着对新生活的美好希望开始的。）与“When does American literature be-gin?”（美国文学是什么时候开始的）是转折关系。but但是，表转折，后面不用逗号； however但是，表转折，后面需用逗号；and和，与，表并列；so所以，表原因。故选B。

A:Although
B:Since
C:Because
D:Therefore答案：A解析：连接词辫析。although，尽管，since, because, therefore表示原因和结果。本句话是指“尽管笔直、宽阔的现代化公路很好，但是这样的公路并不一直让人满意”，有转折的意思，所以选A。
词汇搭配题。"stable（稳定的）”、"splendid（杰出的）”和“complicated（复杂的）”一般不能用来修饰“roads" 。
由于后面提到了“many straight sections"，可见指的是很少急转弯的公路，所以选择修饰可数名词的“few"，表达较少的意思。
根据上下文，如果高速公路总是保持笔直，对于驾驶者来说是没有什么乐趣而言的，因此正确答案为“enjoyable"。
介词“by”和动词“pass"搭配表示“经过，逝去”的意思，其他三个词搭配借误。
副词“furthermore”表明它是对上一句的补充，即高速公路不仅经过景区卜乡村，往往还把庞大的都市中心区连接起来，所以选B。
词语搭配题。表达“交通拥挤”时，用“heavy”来修饰“traffic"。
前面提到了“rush hours"（交通高峰期），后面跟的是一个非限定性定语从了，选项中只有“when”可以作表示时间的引导词。
从上下文判断，此句应该是条件句，即如果你不着急，还有“always another route to take（另外一条路可选）"，因此选项B正确。
根据主句中的“older ...roads”可推断此空需要填一个比较意义的副词，以构成对比关系。relatively“相应地，相对地”为正确答案。其他三个词的意思分别为：regularly“有规律地，定期地”；respectively“各自地”；reasonably“有理由地”。
根据此空前后词及结构可断定此空应使用比较级，故可排除选项A和D。 另外，根据上下文可推测此空应为“less"，因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路，与常识不符。
从下文的“others”可知此空正确答案为选项D。
根据上文的“slopes”和下文的“hillsides”就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词，选项A (rocks）意义不符，故只有B( cliffs)“悬崖”为正确答案。
根据题目和选项可断定此空应为“towns”的后置定语，由此可猜测句义为 “位于深谷中的城镇”,lie是“位于”，是不及物动词，不能以过去分词的形式出现作名词的后置修饰语，故正确答案为“lie”的现在分词形式“lying"。

第10题：
问答题Power and Cooperation: An American Foreign Policy for the Age of Global Politics The age of geopolitics in American foreign policy is over; the age of global politics has begun. Throughout the twentieth century, traditional geopolitics drove U. S. thinking on foreign affairs: American security depended on preventing any one country from achieving dominion over the Eurasian landmass. That objective was achieved with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Now the United States finds itself confronting a new international environment, one without a peer competitor but that nonetheless presents serious threats to American security. The terrorists who struck the World Trade Center and the Pentagon neither represented a traditional state-based threat nor were tied to a specific geographical location. Nevertheless, nineteen people with just a few hundred thousand dollars succeeded in harming the most powerful nation on earth. For more than three centuries, the dynamics of world politics was determined by the interplay among states, especially the great powers. Today, world politics is shaped by two unprecedented phenomena that are in some tension with each other. One is the sheer predominance of the United States. Today, as never before, what matters most in international politics is how—and whether—Washington acts on any given issue. The other is globalization, which has unleashed economic, political, and social forces that are beyond the capacity of any one country, including the United States, to control. American primacy and globalization bring the United States great rewards as well as great dangers. Primacy gives Washington an unsurpassed ability to get its way in international affairs, while globalization enriches the American economy and spreads American values. But America’s great power and the penetration of its culture, products, and influence deep into other societies breed intense resentment and grievances. Great power and great wealth do not necessarily produce greater respect or greater security. American leaders and the American people are now grappling with the double-edged sword that is the age of global politics.正确答案： 【参考译文】
权力与合作:全球政治时代美国的外交政策 美国外交政策的地缘政治时代已经结束,全球政治的时代已初露端倪。整个20世纪,传统的地缘政治是美国外交事务的基点:美国的安全在于阻止任何其他国家在亚欧大陆上取得主导地位。这一目标随着苏联的解体而最终得以实现。如今,美国人发现,自己所处的国际新环境中虽然没有可以与之匹敌的国家,但是却存在着对美国安全的严重威胁。袭击世贸中心和五角大楼的恐怖分子,既不是传统的基于国家的威胁,也不能被锁定在某个特定的地理区域。然而,19个人用了区区几十万美元,便成功地对这个世界上最强大的国家造成了伤害。
三个多世纪以来,世界政治动态始终取决于国家间、尤其是大国间的互动关系。今天,主导世界政治格局的则是两大前所未有、且彼此间保持着某种张力的现象。其一是美国不容置疑的主导作用。国际政治从来没有像今天这样,取决于华盛顿对任何问题的反应。其二是全球化。全球化在经济、政治及社会领域所释放出的力量,没有任何一个国家——包括美国——能将之置于自己的控制之下。
美国的老大地位和全球化给美国带来了巨大的利益,也带来了重大的危险。老大地位给了华盛顿无可超越的能力,在国际事务中为所欲为;而全球化使美国经济更加强大,并使美国的价值观得以传播。然而美国的强大、文化产品的渗透,及对其他国家的深入影响却招致了政体强烈的憎恨和不平。大国地位和巨大的财富并不一定能带来更多的尊敬或更多的安全感。美国的领导者和美国人民正在为如何使用全球政治时代这把双刃剑而费神。解析： 暂无解析 -

A:Although
B:Since
C:Because
D:Therefore答案：A解析：连接词辫析。although，尽管，since , because , therefore表示原因。本句话是指“尽管笔直、宽阔的现代化公路很好，但是这样的公路并不一直让人满意”，有转折的意思，所以选A。
词汇搭配题。" stable（稳定的）“、 " splendid（杰出的）”和“complicated（复杂的）”一般不能用来修饰“roads"。
由于后面提到了“direct route"，可见指的是很少急转弯的公路，所以选择修饰可数名词的“few"，表达较少的意思。
根据上下文，如果高速公路总是保持笔直，对于驾驶者来说是没有什么乐趣而言的，因此正确答案为“enjoyable"。
介词“by”和动词“pass"搭配表示“经过，逝去的”意思，其他三个词搭配错误。
副词“furthermore”表明它是对上一句的补充，即高速公路不仅经过景区和乡村，往往还把庞大的都市中心区连接起来，所以选B。
词语搭配题。表达“交通拥挤”时，用“heavy”来修饰“traffic"。
前面提到了“rush hours " (交通高峰期），后面跟的是一个非限定性定语从句，选项中只有“when”可以作表示时间的引导词。
从上下文判断，此句应该是条件句，即如果你不着急，还有“always another route to take（另外一条路可选）"，因此选项B正确。
根据主句中的“older……roads”可推断此空需要填一个比较意义的副词，以构成对比关系。relatively“相应地，相对地”为正确答案。其他三个词的意思分别为：regularly“有规律地，定期地”; respectively“各自地”; reasonably“有理由地”。
根据此空前后词及结构可断定此空应使用比较级，故可排除选项A和D。另外，根据上下文可推测此空应为“less"，因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路，与常识不符。
从下文的“others'‘可知此空正确答案为选项D。
根据上文的“slopes”和下文的“hillsides”就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词，选项A (rocks）意义不符，故只有B( cliffs)“悬崖”为正确答案。
根据题目和选项可断定此空应为“towns”的后置定语，由此可猜测句义为“位于深谷中的城镇”, lie是“位于”，是不及物动词，不能以过去分词的形式出现作名词的后置修饰语，故正确答案为“lie”的现在分词形式“lying"。

A:All
B:Several
C:Lots
D:Some答案：D解析：根据后面的“a direct route is not always...”可知，这里需要表示让步的连词。
Although引导的状语从句说的都是公路好的、有利的方面，道路上急弯少也是有利的方 面。弯道是可数名词，所以选B。
前面的状语从句说的是公路好的、有利的方面，但后面的语气一转，提到“一条直的路 线并不总是令人愉快的”。所以选C。
pass by是固定搭配，意为“经过”，符合句意。pass to意为“转到”;pass into意为“变 成”;pass over意为“忽略”。
该句的意思是：这些公路一般都连接着大城市中心。connect意为“连接，相连”，符合 句意。
heavy traffic是“交通拥挤”的意思，符合句意。
此句意思是：如果你不着急，几乎总能有另一条路可走。almost意思是“几乎，差不多”, 符合句意。
空格后是形容词new，该空格处应填副词。后面句子中的older是比较级，所以new也 应有比较的意思。所以选A。
在此空格前出现比较级“older"，本空格与“older”为并列成分，也应为比较级。根据句 意“通往乡村的路一般情况一下不会出现交通阻塞”，所以选择一含有否定意义的“less”最为恰当。
后面有others，表示“另一些”，则此空应表示“一些”。故选D。
drive驾驶；cross穿过；curv。沿曲线行进；travel通过，旅游。这里句子的意思是“这些道 路，有些是平坦的双车道，有些则不平坦，蜿蜒经过乡下”。故选C。
空前的意思是：这些辅线可以爬上陡峭的斜坡。。从上下文看，爬上陡峭的斜坡必然沿 着悬崖延伸，而不可能沿着岩石、大道或小路延伸。
lying意思是“坐落”,lying是lie的现在分词形式。
这是一个定语从句，关系副词where引导的句子修饰先行词places。
此句的意思是“有机会欣赏到人间清新、洁净的景色”。view意为“景色”，符合句意。 -

第19题：
根据以下材料，回答
The American Revolution was not arevolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden andviolent overturning of the political and social framework, such as lateroccurred in France and Russia, when both were already independent nations.Significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. Whathappened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. During theconflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. Mostof them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of themore isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on.
America′s War of Independence heralded thebirth of three modem nations. One was Canada, which received its first largeinflux of English-speaking population from the thousands of loyalists who fledthere from the United States. Another was Australia, which became a penalcolony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. Thethird new comer--the United States--based itself squarely on republican principles.
Yet even the political overturn was not asrevolutionary as one might suppose. In some states, notable Connecticut andRhode Island, the war largely ratified a colonial self-rule alreadyexisting.British officials, everywhere ousted, were replaced by a home-growngoverning class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king andParliament.
Which of the following would be thebest title for the passage?A.The United States: An Isolated Community
B.Surprising Events During the AmericanRevolution
C.Canada and the American War ofIndependence
D.The American Revolution: Evolution NotRevolution答案：D解析：主旨题。通读全文可知，文章的结构是总一分结构。第一段是总括段，第二、三段是分段。根据第一段中“The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of aradical or total change．”“Significant changes wereushered in，but they were not breathtaking．What happened was accelerated evolution rather than outrightrevolution．"可知美国革命并未导致完全的和彻底的变化，所发生的只是进化的加速，并不算是一场革命。所以D项“美国革命：进化而不是革命”作为文章标题最恰当。 -

第21题：
单选题Smugglers’ Gulch ______.Ais a ravine which is watched 24 hours a day
Bis a place where many illegal immigrants would get help from America
Cis a place where Rafael is trying to cross the fence into Mexico
Dis one of the places of Mexico
正确答案： C解析：
该段录音中描述到Smugglers’ Gulch是最难潜入美国的地方之一，该ravine（峡谷）被一面铁墙分开，被边境巡逻人员日夜看守，他们在泛光灯、直升机和地下压力传感器的帮助下追踪那些想非法潜入美国的人。接着提到一个5次试图翻越铁墙被捉的人，然而他仍在铁墙的墨西哥那边等待另一个机会。因此选项A正确。
【录音原文】
Despite its name, Smugglers’ Gulch is one of the toughest places to sneak into America. The ravine near San Diego is bisected by a steel wall and watched day and night by agents of the border patrol, who track would-be illegal immigrants with the help of floodlights, helicopters and underground pressure sensors. Rafael, a cement worker, has already been caught jumping over the fence five times. Yet he still loiters on the Mexican side of the fence, waiting for nightfall and another chance to cross. -

CCompanies that are United States owned but operate internationally may not be eligible for protection from import competition under the laws of the countries in which their plants operate.
DCompanies that are not United States owned may seek legal protection from import competition under United States import relief laws.

单选题From the beginning of this passage we know that.Amost of the American states were prohibited to take a rest
Bthe United States of America prohibited others from rest
Cthe United States of America prohibited alcohol sales
Dmost states in the country began to allow alcohol sales
正确答案： B解析：
细节题。第一段第一句提到“…much of the United States of America put Prohibition to rest 73 years ago…”。put…to rest为固定搭配，意为“使…中止”。该句中Prohibition指“禁酒令”，由此可知该句指“73年前美国许多地方就中止了《禁酒令》…”。言外之意就是美国许多州在那时就被允许售酒了，因此选项D为正确答案。 -
