39、 this directly matched no DNA held in a police database, analysis of it led investigators all the way back to the 1800s, to his great-great-great grandparents. The trail they followed links him to crimes committed around Sacramento in the 1970s and 1980s by an unknown man nicknamed the Golden State
40、Killer.That a link to distant ancestors could lead to an arrest proves the power of modern genomics (基因组学).Investigators first uploaded Mr DeAngelos genetic profile ( 档 案 ) to a website called GEDmatch.

44、o, was arrested after police had tested the DNA on an item he had discarded.If a serial killer really has been caught using these methods, everyone will rightly applaud. But it bears on the question of genetic privacynamely, how much right people have to keep their genes to themselves.As the cost of
45、 genetic sequencing falls, the tendency of people to discover their own genetic information, rather than learning about it second-hand, will increase. That, though, may bring about a different problem, in which people obtain the sequences of others without their permission from things like discarded

51、Angelo appears has 1,000 members.（迪安杰洛先生出现在家谱上，家谱上有1000个成员。）”可知，DeAngelo 和“金门杀手”之间没有亲密关系，只是远方亲戚。故选C项。【10题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段 “That, though, may bring about a different problem, in which people obtain the sequences of others without their permission from things like discarded coffee cups.（然而，这可能会带来一个不同的问
52、题，即人们未经许可就从丢弃的咖啡杯等物品中获得他人的序列。）”中的problem可知，最后一段的大意是人们对基因信息泄露产生的担忧。故选B项。【11题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，并且根据文章第一段中逮捕罪犯Joseph DeAngelo，以及第三段中如何运用基因技术分析远方亲戚的DNA来确定罪犯可知，A项“通过远亲的 DNA 找到嫌疑人”，符合题意，适合做标题。故选A项。DNew psychological thriller Curses of Cousins is a fascinating novel, mixing real-world issues with a fictional i

90、分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者邀请了几乎班里所有的女同学来参加她的生日聚会，却没有邀请Sarah。当Sarah出现在家门口给作者送来生日礼物时，她感到很意外，也很难为情。当那些来参加生日聚会的人渐渐与作者疏远后，唯有Sarah一直鼓励和支持作者，她才明白了Sara才是她真正的朋友。【21题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：宾客名单一开始只有几个亲密的朋友，但很快就增加到了十七个。A. guest宾客；B. gift礼物；C. price价格；D. performance表演。根据后文中的“a few closest friends”可知，这个list（名单）是关于生日宴会上的邀请宾客名单。故选A项。
91、【22题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：几乎我五年级班上的每个女生都被邀请到我家来参加一个盛大的庆祝活动。A. command命令，指挥；B. competition比赛； C. celebration庆祝活动；D. challenge挑战。根据介词for及常识可知，朋友们来参加生日宴会的目的是参加庆祝活动。故选C项。【23题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：当他们兴奋地接受邀请时，我特别高兴。A. service服务；B. invitation邀请；C. risk冒险；D. experiment实验。前文“Nearly every girl in my fifth grade class had
92、been invited to my house for a big_2_.”说明作者向朋友发出了生日邀请，而朋友们接受了邀请，符合题意。故选B项。【24题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：但后来我意识到，我真正珍惜的只是那天晚上收到的一件礼物。A. lose 失去；B. recommend推荐；C. purchase购买；D. treasure珍惜，珍视。根据后文中的“It was the best gift I had received”可知，作者认为Sarah的礼物是最好的，因此十分珍视。故选D项。【25题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：我翻了个白眼，向朋友们耸了耸肩，好像在说：“现在谁敢在这
93、种时候打扰我?” A. rubbed摩擦，惹怒；B. fixed安装，修理，固定；C. rolled转动，滚动；D. lowered放低，降低。根据上文“That night, we were playing games when the doorbell rang.”可知，作者和朋友们玩得正高兴，不希望有人打扰，所以翻白眼表示不满。roll ones eyes为固定搭配，意为“转动眼球，翻白眼”。故选C项。【26题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：我翻了个白眼，向朋友们耸了耸肩，好像在说：“现在谁敢在这种时候打扰我?” A. persuade说服；B. bother打扰，麻烦；C. surpri
94、se使吃惊；D. evaluate评估。根据前文中的“roll my eyes”及“dare”可推测，作者不耐烦，认为有人来打扰。故选B项。【27题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：我记得只有在有人对我感兴趣的时候，我才会在名单上加上一个名字。A. added加上；B. compared比较；C. associated联系，联合；D. tied系，捆绑。根据前文“The _1_ list began with a few close friends, but it quickly grew to a total of seventeen.”并结合语境可知，此处应使用add一词，表示往宾客名单上添加
95、名字。故选A项。【28题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：她从来没有在午饭时间挤进我周围的孩子圈子里。A. line线，队；B. order命令，指令；C. circle圈，圈子；D. turn转角，拐弯。此处使用circle的抽象含义“圈子”，即指Sarah不能算是作者的好朋友。a circle of为固定搭配，意为“的圈子”。故选C项。【29题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：我想我忘记邀请她，只是因为她没有强烈要求被邀请。A. pretending 假装；B. determining决定；C. pushing推动，强迫；D. intending打算，想要。根据前文中的“I remembered
96、that I only_7_ a name to the list when someone had shown an interest in me.”可知，作者忘记邀请Sarah，是因为Sarah没有主动跟作者联系，推动作者邀请她。push在此处意为“推动”。故选C项。【30题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：“我不能久留，”她低头说。A. stay留，待；B. move移动；C. breathe 呼吸；D. imagine想象。根据后文中的“My dads waiting in the car.”可知，Sarah的父亲还在车里等她，她不能久留。故选A项。【31题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：“
97、你能进来一会儿吗?”我几乎是在乞求。A. blamed责备，指责；B. begged乞求，恳求；C. urged催促，推进；D. promised允许，许诺。根据后文中的“Thanks, but I have to go,” she said, turning toward the door.”可知，作者恳求Sarah留下来，但是Sarah拒绝了。故选B项。【32题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：箱子里面有一只大约三英寸高的小狗，它的尾巴在空中摇摆。A. model 模型，模特；B. cat猫；C. toy玩具；D. dog狗。根据后文中的“I was never really into dog
98、s. I later found out that the figurine looked exactly like Sarahs dog, Seymour.”可知，Sarah送给作者是一条小狗。故选D项。【33题详解】考查连词词义辨析。句意：这是我收到的最好的礼物，尽管我从来没有真正喜欢过狗。A. so that 以至于，所以；B. in case万一；C. as if好像，仿佛；D. even though虽然，即使。通过the best gift和never really into的对比可知，此处应使用转折连词。故选D项。【34题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：那时我还不知道，但现在我意识
99、到Sarah是我唯一真正的童年好友。A. realize意识到，实现；B. guess猜测；C. ignore忽视，忽略；D. predict预测，预料。根据前文中作者没有邀请Sarah来参加生日宴会，Sarah却主动来送礼物。根据常识，作者意识到（realize）Sarah才是真正的朋友。故选A项。【35题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：她是一个无条件的朋友，总是支持我，鼓励我，理解我。A. incapable 无能的，不会的；B. unconditional无条件的；C. irresponsible不负责任的；D. impatient没有耐心的。文章中作者没有邀请Sarah来参加生日宴会，
100、Sarah却主动来送礼物，说明Sarah对作者的友谊是无条件的。其他选项意义不符。故选B项。第二节（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Practice does not_36_ (necessary) make perfect.

105、熟不一定能生巧。修饰谓语动词does not make需要用副词，作状语。故填necessarily。【37题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：一项对小提琴演奏者的研究发现，如果不考虑教学质量、学习技巧和天分等因素的差异，水平过得去的演奏者和杰出的演奏者练习的时间一样多，甚至可能更多。根据that从句的谓语动词practised可知此处要用非谓语动词，此处要用现在分词，作结果状语。故填leaving。【38题详解】考查介词。句意：一项对小提琴演奏者的研究发现，如果不考虑教学质量、学习技巧和天分等因素的差异，水平过得去的演奏者和杰出的演奏者练习的时间一样多，甚至可能更多。短语account for“对
