单选题
【B1】
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】解析:考查名词辨析。开头的And说明该句是对上句的补充,上句中的be aware of(意识到,想到)提示本题选择A.thought。give serious thought to sth.意为“认真考虑某事”。idea“主意,观点,想法”,opinion“意见”,且搭配应为give an idea to sb.和give an opinion to sb.。give advice to sb.,如果后面接how从句则必须使用介词on,故不正确。
【答案解析】解析:考查形容词辨析。本句意为“然而,典型的青少年的生活方式已经充满了如此众多的竞争,那么组织一些赢者多于输家的活动是______之举”。后半句真正的主语是to plan activities in which there are more winners than losers,就全文来看这样做显然是明智之举,故选D.wise“明智的”。improper“不合适的”和risky“冒险的”为否定意义,与句意不符;fair“公平的”,与题意无关。
单选题
【B8】
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】解析:考查逻辑关系。分析句子可以看出选项前后是例证关系,后面列举的行为均用来具体说明前面的activities,形成照应关系,因此选C.for example“例如”。in effect“事实上”,as a result“结果是”,in a sense“从某种意义上说”,均与题意不符。
【答案解析】解析:考查名词辨析。此题需考虑上下文。本句主语a variety of small clubs和下一句的Making friends is extremely important to teenagers都暗示文章强调青少年需要参加“集体活动”,因此答案为A.group“团队,小组”。individual“个人,个体”,与文章主旨背离。personnel“人员,职员”;corporation“公司”,均与题意无关。
【答案解析】解析:考查副词辨析。结合上下文,既然这些学生是害羞的,又需要a supportive adult,那么此人最好是barely visible in the background(只在背后露露面),因此选B.barely“仅仅,刚好”,相当于only。rarely“很少地,罕见地”,表否定,与语义相反。particularly“独特地”,definitely“肯定地”,与题意无关。
单选题
【B14】
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】解析:考查形容词辨析。第二段讲的是如何组织活动,使学生保持持久的兴趣和注意。之所以如此,是因为青少年的注意周期(attention spans)不够长,这一点也可凭借常识判断。同时,下文中“participants can remain active as long as they want.(参与者能尽可能长的保持活跃的心态)”的信息也证明了青少年的有效注意时限很短。因此,正确答案为D.short。similar“相似的”,long“长的”,different“不同的”,均与题意不符。
【答案解析】解析:考查逻辑关系。本句意为“这并不意味着成年人就没有责任,______他们可以帮助学生获得一种责任感…”两句间形成对比关系,所以选A.On the contrary“相反地”。On the average“平均来说,一般地”;On the whole“大体上”,与题意不符。On the other hand“另一方面”必须与On the one hand“一方面”构成搭配。
