26、符合语境。I guess so.“我想是吧”；Thats it.“就是这样”；It depends.“看情况而定”。2【解析】选C。考查冠词的用法。Earth Day是专有名词，意思是“地球日”，其前面不用加冠词；第二空后面的rules指特定的一些规则，因此其前用定冠词。3【解析】选B。句意：普京，如人们所料，赢得了俄罗斯的总统大选，对此许多人认为就他对国家的贡献而言，这是他应该得到的。deserve值得，应该得到；permit允许；admit承认，允许入内；preserve保存，保留。4【解析】选C。题干实际上使用的是so.that(如此以致于)这一结构，只是so部分放在了句首，主谓倒装。5
27、【解析】选D。句意：他为了让自己能被重点大学录取而刻苦学习。admit sb.into./sb.be admitted into“录取某人进入，允许某人进入”；accept“接受”，receive“收到”，announce“宣布”，均不与into搭配。6【解析】选B。句意：我只花了10美元就买了一条裙子，真合算。exchange“互换”；bargain“便宜货，廉价货”；trade“贸易”；business“生意”。结合前面给出的信息“只花了10美元”，言外之意花钱不多，所以本题选择B项。7【解析】选C。句意：我们的身体因锻炼而健壮。与之相似，我们的心理因学习而得到改善。similarly副词

29、一空，charge.for.表示“(向)收费，开价”；第二空，for nothing表示“免费”。故选B项。12【解析】选C。分析句子结构可知，填入的关系词应引导宾语从句并在从句中作主语，故选C项。A、D项不能在宾语从句中作主语；B项含义不符。13【解析】选D。根据语境可知，每张票可以允许一个成人和一个孩子入场。admit可指“允许进入，使能进入”，符合句意。allow和permit虽有“允许”之意，但只能说permit/allow sb.to do sth.；promise意思是“允诺”，不符合题意。14【解析】选C。从the three housewives come here for a
30、 drink every two days可知三位家庭主妇是这家店的常客，故用regular，表示“定期的，常规的”。15【解析】选D。句意：这些天来他行为一直很古怪。我根本无法忍受他的行为。ask for“要求”；account for“说明”；call for“要求”；stand for“忍受”。故选D。.完形填空【解题导语】当我们的友善被粗鲁地对待时，当我们的好心被无情地践踏时，我们该如何应对呢？是以牙还牙还是以德报怨，本文给出了答案。1【解析】选B。George有礼貌地和卖报纸的人打招呼(greeted)。2【解析】选A。但George得到的却是不友善的(unfriendly)服务。4
31、空后面的“which was thrown rudely”是线索提示。3【解析】选C。当George要最新的晚报时，他连头都没抬(looked up)。stay up“熬夜”；give up“放弃”；dress up“打扮”。4【解析】选A。George微笑着接受了(accepting)那份被粗鲁地扔过来的报纸。5【解析】选D。Harris问：“他总是这么粗鲁地对待(treat)你吗？”expect“期待”；direct“指导”；affect“影响”。6【解析】选B。George答道(replied)：“是的，不幸的是，他总是如此。”complain “抱怨”；criticize “批评”；a

33、似乎(as if)成了唯一重要的事。even though“即使”；so that“以便”；as long as“只要”。13【解析】选A。因此，我们彼此如何对待真的不那么重要(matter)了。14【解析】选B。例如，我们经常听到有人说：“这个人现在让我不开心，我不在乎(care about)耐心、自控力和慈爱了。”15【解析】选C。“反而(Instead)，我想让他们知道因为他们的所作所为，我多么生气(angry)。16【解析】选B。参见上题解析。17【解析】选A。但是我们处理冲突(conflicts)的方式会影响我们的生活很长时间。12空前面的“conflicts”是线索提示。18【解析

35、ore years.句中when是连词，意思是“既然，如果”。句意：我们必须谨慎，不要认定在早期表现差的人一定会失败，实际上再过几年他们的智商可能会得到显著提高。1【解析】选B。事实细节题。根据第二段可知，在挪威，学生通常7岁开始上学。由第二段第二句话可知C项错误；A、D项在文章中没有相关细节。2【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第四段可知，C项符合文意。其他项表述错误。3【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第五段第一句可知，研究人员把10.7万年轻人的认知能力测试结果和他们的上学时间作了比较，从而得出研究结果，故A符合题意。4【解析】选B。事实细节题。阅读Cathy Price的话可知，我们必须谨慎，不要认定在早期表现差的人一定会失败，实际上再过几年他们的智商可能会得到显著提高。所以B项“我们不应该对青少年的表现匆匆下结论”符合文意。5【解析】选D。主旨大意题。本文主要介绍研究人员通过对挪威政府延长学生接受义务教育的时间对孩子智商发展的影响的调查，发现上学时间更长的学生智力测验得分更高。故D项“上学越多可能意味着智商越高”符合文意。
