21.   Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?
[A] Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.
[B] Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.
[C] Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.
[D] Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.
[正确答案]A
[答案解析]文章第12段明确表述,妇女在面对压力时,由于性荷尔蒙的差异,会产生更多的trigger chemicals,而这个是导致她们develop depression and anxiety disorders的原因。所以,妇女在面对压力的时候更加脆弱,选A。而且,还有个支持力非常强的老鼠实验,去掉母鼠的卵巢,则其chemical responses就与公鼠一样了,这说明是生理(或生物,biologically)上的原因。B根本无从谈起,与此项沾点边的是第四段的妇女的压力更多源于妇女与其他家庭成员,虽然这里的其他家庭成员最有可能的就是她们的老公(men),但原文并未明述,况且这也是第四段了。C也无从谈起,跟它沾点边的在第3段的这句话:Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men’s,这个干扰项稍加注意即可排除。D有一点干扰性,男人与妇女在面对压力时,显示出不同的倾向性。但问题是这个倾向性如何理解?如果是天然的特质,也有点符合啊。但这个inclination,英文的解释是A characteristic disposition to do, prefer, or favor one thing rather than another; a propensity。这表明,inclination是性格方面,而非生理方面的。所以不对。
[信心指数]99.9
22.   Dr. Yehuda’s research suggests that women
[A] need extra doses of chemicals to handle stress.
[B] have limited capacity for tolerating stress.
[C] are more capable of avoiding stress.
[D] are exposed to more stress.
[正确答案]D
[答案解析]A错,原文是causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditionsB反了,原文是Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men’s. C错,原文只是提到她们更有可能面对压力,她们是不是更能避免压力,不得而知啊。D为正确答案,原文有Adding to a woman’s increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “opportunities” for stress.
[信心指数]99.9
23.   According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to be
[A] domestic and temporary.
[B] irregular and violent.
[C] durable and frequent.
[D] trivial and random.
[正确答案]C
[答案解析]注意原文women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic or repeated nature,另外有and they tend not to be one-shot deals,能和这些匹配的,只有C
[信心指数]100
24.   The sentence “I lived from paycheck to paycheck.” (Line 6, Para. 5) shows that
[A] Alvarez cared about nothing but making money.
[B] Alvarez’s salary barely covered her household expenses.
[C] Alvarez got paychecks from different jobs.
[D] Alvarez paid practically everything by check.
[正确答案]B
[答案解析]本题考查的就是对lived from paycheck to paycheck的理解,它的意思是没啥积蓄或其他生活来源,靠工资生活。It means that I had neither any savings or an extra income. I had to manage my expenses within the salary and it had to last till receipt of the next salary. 若不理解这个短语,从文中内容也能猜个大概。她始终在说自己如何如何的不容易,那肯定没有太多积蓄啊。
[信心指数]99.9
25.   Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
[A] Strain of Stress: No Way Out?
[B] Responses to Stress: Gender Difference
[C] Stress Analysis: What Chemicals Say
[D] Gender Inequality: Women Under Stress
[正确答案]D
[答案解析]本文主题就是谈妇女在面对压力方面受到的伤害远远领先于男人,比男人面对更多的压力,长期又持久,还由于生理的原因,面对压力时分泌的可能导致抑郁的化学物质又比较多,通篇谈的就是相对于男人,她们在面对压力方面的不幸或不公。主题题型。另外,我们通过互联网搜索到了原文,原文的标题就是D,所以没有悬念。
[信心指数]100

26.   In the first paragraph, the author discusses

[A] the background information of journal editing.

[B] the publication routine of laboratory reports.

[C] the relations of authors with journal publishers.

[D] the traditional process of journal publication.

[正确答案]D

[答案解析]概括段落大意。本文谈的是通过互联网发表研究成果的一种新方式,指出了三大业务模式。第一段先谈传统的杂志出版(论文发表)流程,以此引出话题,所以正确答案是D。A选项journal editing沾点边,但不吻合。做这类题及主题题型可以使用逆向法,即思路是:如果真要写journal editing的,那应该从如何编辑,如何取舍及一些编辑的细节入手,而本段明显不是。B离题更远,实验报告,从何谈起呀?C作者与杂志社的关系,这个流程是涉及到,但要谈的不是这个。总之,此题从本段的内容,本段在全篇的作用,以及本文要谈的主题角度,可以确定正确答案。

[信心指数]99.9%

27.   Which of the following is true of the OECD report?

[A] It criticizes government-funded research.

[B] It introduces an effective means of publication.

[C] It upsets profit-making journal publishers.

[D] It benefits scientific research considerably.

[正确答案]C

[答案解析]A肯定不对,报告并未批评政府资助的研究,是funding agencies批评commercial publishers,也就是这些资助一些研究项目的机构质询商业出版机构,我出钱,是为社会受益,咋变成你受益了呢?这个选项错在张冠李戴。B也不对,报告引进(introduces)了一种新的出版方式吗?不是它吧?谁呢?The Internet is making access to scientific results a reality.是Internet,对吧?C正确。Why? 实际上是考对这句话的理解:The report makes heavy reading for publishers. “heavy reading”是啥意思呢?费力的阅读。此处的heavy意为hard to do or accomplish; arduous。字面的意思是,这个报告让获取巨大利润的出版商们读起来费劲。为什么读起来费劲啊?是他们的词汇量不够读不懂吗?当然不是,结合文章所述内容,是因为这个报告直指要害,触及了他们。读出了这层意思,C选项当然就可以大胆选啦!D选项不对,全文核心意思,是互联网出版方式会给科学研究带来巨大的好处,使得科学成果更容易被人分享。并不是这个报告本身对科学研究带来多大好处。当然啦,这个报告既然指出了这个趋势,或多或少总能让科研受益一些,但注意命题者还刻意加了一个considerably,一篇报告能有如此“相当的”作用?

[信心指数]99.9%

28.   According to the text, online publication is significant in that

[A] it provides an easier access to scientific results.

[B] it brings huge profits to scientific researchers.

[C] it emphasizes the crucial role of scientific knowledge.

[D] it facilitates public investment in scientific research.

[正确答案]A

[答案解析]文中两句话决定A正确,一是The Internet is making access to scientific results a reality. 二是The value of knowledge and the return on the public investment in research depends, in part, upon wide distribution and ready access. 也就是知识的价值在于其广泛传播和即时获取,而互联网使得科学成果的很容易获取变为现实。这不就是基于互联网的在线出版的重大意义吗!B不对,因为文章始终没有谈论研究者的获利问题,要说谈,它也只是谈了scientific publishing market是一个big business。而且,在线学术期刊的第二种业务模式(open-access publishing),还得研究者自己掏腰包的!科学知识本身无比重要的作用不在本文讨论范围,C不对。促进对科学研究的公共投资也无从谈起,D亦被轻松排除。

[信心指数]99.9%

29.   With the open-access publishing model, the author of a paper is required to

[A] cover the cost of its publication.

[B] subscribe to the journal publishing it.

[C] allow other online journals to use it freely.

[D] complete the peer-review before submission.

[正确答案]A

[答案解析]考对这句话的理解:There is open-access publishing, typically supported by asking the author (or his employer) to pay for the paper to be published. 通过作者本人(或其老板)付费发表的方式支持开架在线阅览,注意,这里的付费,付什么费用呀?付给出版网站的费吗?我的想应该是发表论文的研究费用,A选项所指即这个,当然这是题外话。B乃空穴来风,毫无根据。C有一定的干扰性,本来这层意思本文也是只字示提,但既然是open-access publishing嘛,那用户应该是可以免费使用的。但是不是other online journals也可以免费使用呢(转载等),这似乎就走得远了点,原文并未提供这方面的信息,排除。D选项轻松排除。

[信心指数]99.9%

30.   Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

[A] The Internet is posing a threat to publishers.

[B] A new mode of publication is emerging.

[C] Authors welcome the new channel for publication.

[D] Publication is rendered easier by online service.

[正确答案]B

[答案解析]一种新的出版方式,即在线出版正悄然兴起,乃本文主题,B选项正确。A选项不对,应该说互联网对传统出版行业构成威胁,但不威胁出版本身,在线出版商也是出版商啊。作者们欢迎不欢迎新的出版方式,一呢,咱们不得而知,二呢,绝非本文主题,C不对。在线服务应该会使出版更加容易,但一未涉及,二非主题。

31.   Wilt Chamberlain is cited as an example to

[A] illustrate the change of height of NBA players.

[B] show the popularity of NBA players in the U.S..

[C] compare different generations of NBA players.

[D] assess the achievements of famous NBA players.

[正确答案]A

[答案解析]本文主题明确,虽然篮球运动员等的平均身高大幅增长,但美国人平均身高近几十年没有什么变化。Wilt Chamberlain作为一个例子引用想说明什么问题呢?就是表述“虽然”这个意思:这些年,NBA运动员身高的发生了显著变化(增长)。例子作用题。结合文章主题及该例欲表达的观点入手。B、D轻松排除。C,比较不同代NBA运动员,一太笼统,比较他们的什么呀?二没涉及作用,比较本身并非例子的作用。也被排除。

[信心指数]99.9%

32.   Which of the following plays a key role in body growth according to the text?

[A] Genetic modification.

[B] Natural environment.

[C] Living standards.

[D] Daily exercise.

[正确答案]C

[答案解析]身体成长方面,本文的一些表述非常明确:青少年身体成长受(摄取)热量、营养、饮食及健康等因素的影响;在这些因素不成问题的情况下,成人身高受制于基因。问题是这个题目是问什么呢?是问成人的终极身高(这是body growth的结果啊)呢,还是青少年的身体成长?如果基因变异(Genetic modification)一下,那么Genetic maximums可能就发生变化了,于是成人身高可能就会变化了(如大幅增长),那么A不就产生重要作用了吗?但我还是倾向于选C,原因是:一、第二段里有In the general population today, at this genetic, environmental level这句话,也就是在目前的基因和环境条件下,身高的增长已到尽头。如果基因算一个因素的话,那B选项也对呀,此题的难处在于,A、B、C、D逻辑上都是重要的影响因素,而且A、B也有明述。但这是单选题,所以A和B可以同时被排除;二、明确阐述身体增长内容,集中于本文第三段,此处涉及的热量、营养、饮食及健康等因素均可以归因于Living standards,对吧?D选项逻辑上是,但本文并未提及(注意题目要求是according to the text,即使没有这个文字,阅读题也要坚持这个原则),所以排除。本题能充分反映解阅读题的一个高超技艺要求:既要大胆地把合理的推理的推出来,又不能自作主张地加入文章未表述的元素(看见妇女想到粉臂想到大腿的思维方式非常有害,太多的干扰选项是对这种思维方式下套)。当然,这个度有时把握起来比较难。

[信心指数]99%

33.   On which of the following statements would the author most probably agree?

[A] Non-Americans add to the average height of the nation.

[B] Human height is conditioned by the upright posture.

[C] Americans are the tallest on average in the world.

[D] Larger babies tend to become taller in adulthood.

[正确答案]B

[答案解析]A选项不对,是个简单的数学题,与此选项最相关的文字是这个:today’s people – especially those born to families who have lived in the U.S. for many generations – apparently reached their limit in the early 1960s但这只是说明了美国本地人的身高增长到了极限,这之外的美国人(姑且就算Non-Americans吧),身高增长还在继续。但他们是不是就增加了美国的平均身高呢?当然不是,你身高在增长,但有多高啊?如果长了半天,还没美国本地人高,那对美国的平均身高的作用就不是add吧?B正确,There are some real constraints that are set by the genetic architecture of the individual organism. 这里的genetic architecture 就是前面提到的bipedal posture或者本选项里的upright posture。本选项里的conditioned by对应原文里的constraints,意为“受限于”。C选项根本没有提,D选项属典型的主观臆断,原文有:Genetically speaking, there are advantages to avoiding substantial height. During childbirth, larger babies have more difficulty passing through the birth canal.意思是人类不能长太高了,否则生的时候困难,这个逻辑明显是,人类(成人)身材变高→胎儿变大。但反过来是不是成立呢?至少从逻辑上不一定啊。

[信心指数]99.9%

34.   We learn from the last paragraph that in the near future

[A] the garment industry will reconsider the uniform size.

[B] the design of military uniforms will remain unchanged.

[C] genetic testing will be employed in selecting sportsmen.

[D] the existing data of human height will still be applicable.

[正确答案]D

[答案解析]A不对,与本文论述相反,容易排除。B概念发生了变化,原文是the length of military uniforms has not changed for some time,并不涉及design,长度和样式乃两码事。C离题千里,是诗人的思维,呵呵。D正确,you could use today’s data and feel fairly confident就是依据。

[信心指数]99.9%

35.   The text intends to tell us that

[A] the change of human height follows a cyclic pattern.

[B] human height is becoming even more predictable.

[C] Americans have reached their genetic growth limit.

[D] the genetic pattern of Americans has altered.

[正确答案]C

[答案解析]A,人类身高变化遵循某种周期律?哪儿说了?排除!B有点迷惑性,美国人在可以预见的未来就那么高啦,这不是more predictable吗?但从思维上有好多问题。一、全文讨论的是美国人的平均身高,不是个体,而且讨论的是美国人,而非泛泛的人类;二、此选项说会“更加有预见性”,什么叫更加呀?近几十年来就已经这样了,谈不上更加。C正确,基本就是本文主题思想,美国人身高已经达到基因极限了,而且这个极限一时半会儿不会改变。D选项与原文意思相反。

36.   George Washington’s dental surgery is mentioned to
[A] show the primitive medical practice in the past.
[B] demonstrate the cruelty of slavery in his days.
[C] stress the role of slaves in the U.S. history.[D] reveal some unknown aspect of his life.
[正确答案]D
[答案解析]例子(段落)作用题,解这类题目需从文章主题及结构的角度入手。这篇文章谈的主题是什么呢?谈的是美国开国者们在对待奴隶制度方面一些鲜为人知的、有的可能并不如我们想象的那么完美的一些事情或做法。当然,作者的态度显然是比较客观的,并没有因为这些事情而否认他们的历史地位。由此入手,那么第一段的牙齿手术在全文里起什么作用呢?是起到引入话题的作用。怎么个引入呢?先说华盛顿,不过由于华盛顿他老人家在我们的心中形象一直很高大,于是,先从一个小小的故事入手,揭露华盛顿生活中不为人所知的一面,这样话题就展开了,所以D为正确答案。其他三个选项都不是这个例子的作用。A选项是说明过去医疗技术的原始,这个手术,技术算不算原始,咱也不好说,但这篇文章不是谈医疗技术,所以肯定不是为了表达这层意思。B选项不对,强调其生活年代奴隶制度的残酷?如果这样的话,那本文接下来是不是应该讨论残酷不残酷的问题了?这个手术是很残酷,估计富有同情心的人易选此项,但残酷不残酷显然与本文主题无关,所以排除。C选项有一定的干扰性,出题者知道我们做这个题目的时候,肯定要往第二段下面看,不远处就有focus on the roles slavery played in the lives of the founding generation,这不就是stress the role of slaves in the U.S. history吗?但这似乎不对!首先,动作主体不对。原文的focus on的动作主体是many historians,而本题所问的动作主体显然是作者,这没有任何疑问。当然啦,作者也极有可能是一位历史学家,而且,他对这些historians的观点似乎是赞同的。但这毕竟是两回事;其次,C选项表述跟原文也不符,C选项是强调奴隶在美国历史上的作用,这个比较宽泛,而原文说的是奴隶在那一代人生活中所扮演的角色,讨论局限在革命的那一代。如果这个选项对,那岂不是说奴隶在美国历史上所扮演的角色就是为华盛顿提供牙齿?第三,也是最重要的,从文章的主题和结构来看,这是文章的第一段,如果是为了强调奴隶在美国历史中所扮演的角色,那这篇文章的主题是不是就要写奴隶如何如何了?但这篇文章显然不是,是写开国者们对奴隶制度的态度、想法及做法等,还有对他们的评价,重点在开国者。

37.   We may infer from the second paragraph that
[A] DNA technology has been widely applied to history research.
[B] in its early days the U.S. was confronted with delicate situations.[C] historians deliberately made up some stories of Jefferson’s life.[D] political compromises are easily found throughout the U.S. history.[正确答案]B
[答案解析]A不对,第二段只说了利用DNA技术确定了Jefferson和他的奴隶至少生了一个孩子,至于这项技术有没有被广泛用于历史研究,本文并未提及,尽管这可能就是客观事实。B正确,原文fragile nature of the country’s infancy就是依据,fragile nature不就说明当时美国面对着delicate situations吗?C选项放心排除,历史学家编故事?没有文字表明这是编故事吧?D选项不对,原文只有moral compromises made by the nation’s early leaders,这并没说明compromises美国历史上随处可见,而且还是与moral compromises不同的political compromises!即使D选项所述与历史事实相符,它也绝无可能入选!
[信心指数]99.9
38.   What do we learn about Thomas Jefferson?
[A] His political view changed his attitude towards slavery.
[B] His status as a father made him free the child slaves.
[C] His attitude towards slavery was complex.
[D] His affair with a slave stained his prestige.
[正确答案]C
[答案解析]第3段最后While Washington and Jefferson privately expressed distaste for slavery, they also understood that it was part of the political and economic bedrock of the country they helped to create. 说明了Jeffersonslaveryattitudedistaste,但又没有废除它,因为它是国家政治经济的基石。接下来的第456段,行文脉络非常清晰,第4段谈经济基石(当然也有政治,南方的),第5段谈政治基石,第6段再转折一下,虽然Jefferson认为奴隶制度是一个基石,没有触动他,但他还是解放了Hemings’s children,这也算是做了点事情,这一定程度上呼应了前面的distaste,虽然这其中可能有他的孩子。纵观36段,就是在表达Jefferson对奴隶制度的复杂态度,所以C选项正确。A选项不对,因为,他的态度虽然复杂,但未说有什么转变,可以自始自终就是复杂的。另外,他的政治观点是什么,是不是他的政治观点改变了他的态度,或者影响了他的态度,均不得而知。B选项只是推测,而且是有一定合理性的推测,但不能选,因为原文只提事情,未提原因,比较重亲情男孩或男人可能容易选此项。深入地想一下,有可能源自他对奴隶制度的distaste。况且,他是不是其中某个或某几个孩子的父亲,我们现在是知道,但他本人未必知道啊。D纯属推测,原文找不到任何根据,虽然此推测有一定的合理性。可以放心排除。
[信心指数]99.9
39.   Which of the following is true according to the text?
[A] Some Founding Fathers benefit politically from slavery.
[B] Slaves in the old days did not have the right to vote.
[C] Slave owners usually had large savings accounts.
[D] Slavery was regarded as a peculiar institution.
[正确答案]D
[答案解析]A错,此选项很微妙!Jefferson不就是在政治上从奴隶制度受益的一位开国者吗?但注意选项是Some Founding Fathers,是复数。如果此项对,那么原文至少得有两位政治家在政治上受益于此制度,对吧?有没有别的政治家受益呢?得看原文,注意题目要求还刻意加上了according to the text。本文指名道姓提及的只有两位总统,另一位是Washington,那么,他到底有没有受益呢?仔细回顾原文,第一段牙齿手术,他是受益了,但不是政治上的,接下来能与此能沾点边的,有第三段的While Washington and Jefferson privately expressed distaste for slavery, they also understood that it was part of the political and economic bedrock of the country they helped to create.华盛顿知道奴隶制度是政治经济的基石,能不能据此就推测他在政治上也受益了呢?这当然不能,他理解一件事情,并不意味着他就曾受益于此。B选项错,奴隶在本文叙述的那个年代,根据历史知识,应该是没有选举权的,但本文并未明述。文中只有counted a slave as three fifths of a man,这并没涉及选举权,只是对选举团各代表人数计算有影响。C不对,原文是Owning slaves was like having a large bank account. 这是比喻,拥有奴隶就象拥有大笔存款,看清楚了就不会有问题。D 选项正确。其线索隐蔽但很明确!第4段第二句话:The southern states would not have signed the Constitution without protections for the “peculiar institution,”中的the “peculiar institution” 是根据。注意peculiar institution 前面加了定冠词the,它所指代的一定是前面已经出现的,也即slavery,也就是说slavery被看作是a peculiar institution。我们再理一下逻辑:the peculiar institution指代slavery,那么,slavery是不是被看作是a peculiar institution啊?!而且,peculiar institution 就是slavery委婉的说法,“peculiar institution” is a euphemism for slavery
[信心指数]99
40.   Washington’s decision to free slaves originated from his [A] moral considerations.
[B] military experience.
[C] financial conditions.
[D] political stand.
[正确答案]B
[答案解析]解此题的钥匙是这句话:Washington, who had begun to believe that all men were created equal after observing the bravery of the black soldiers during the Revolutionary War, overcame the strong opposition of his relatives to grant his slaves their freedom in his will. 所以C经济状况肯定错,A道德方面的考虑是有可能的,但根本没有提及,错。那么到底是选军事经历B,还是政治立场D呢?原因其实很明确,归纳起来,就是华盛顿在战争中看到黑人兄弟作战英勇,于是开始相信人生而平等,于是解放他的奴隶。问题是,他的这个“人生而平等”的信念算不算political stand呢?这多少有些勉强。而且请注意问题中的originated from这个词,“根源”,所以还是B选项更贴切,因为即使勉强算作的这个政治立场也源于其军事经历呀。当然啦,华盛顿的observing算不算military experience呢?我想这个肯定没问题的,没有军事经历,其何以能observing?虽然华盛顿曾任美国独立战争大陆军总司令的背景知识不可以在此用作参考。
