24、意为：委员会中大部分成员支持这个建议，只有一小部分反对。a majority大部分，多数；a minority少数，小部分。答案：B2解析：考查非谓语动词。非谓语动词类试题的解题关键在于找到逻辑主语，然后判断谓语与逻辑主语的关系。此处逻辑主语是the film，与adapt from构成被动，所以用它的过去分词形式adapted from，表示“改编自”。答案：A3解析：句意为：关于这场事故除了我在报纸上所读到的之外我一无所知。由于空格后句子结构不完整，缺少宾语，故应由what引导，排除A、B、C项。答案：D4解析：句意为：在西方国家圣诞节时有给人送礼物的习俗。the custom of do
25、ing sth.是固定用法，意思是“有做某事的习俗”。答案：A5解析：答语的意思是：她说她从未看过这么好的电影。此处是比较级与否定词连用表示最高级含义，言外之意是这是她看过的最好的电影。答案：A6解析：考查倍数表达法。倍数表达法之一是“倍数as.as”。句意为：人之所以有一张嘴，有两只耳朵，原因是他应该听的比说的多一倍。答案：B7解析：句意为：据要求，司机在高速公路上行驶时要系好安全带。空格处要用过去分词形式，fasten与宾语safety belt之间是被动关系，故选C。答案：C8解析：句意为：无论你有多么多的工作要做，你都应该晚上好好地睡上一觉。however是连接副词，引导让步状语从句，
26、同时也修饰much，作程度状语。答案：A9解析：句意为：到纽约后，这位中国大学生发现很难适应独自生活。rely on依赖；adjust to调节，适应；depend on取决于，依靠；bring up养育。由句意可知选B。答案：B10解析：句意为：真是太吵了，我受不了了。听起来好像隔壁在举行聚会。此处是根据声音进行判断，所以要用sound听起来。答案：B11解析：考查冠词。make a(n).impression on sb.意为“给某人留下印象”；of vital importance意为“至关重要”。句意为：给面试者留下好的印象是至关重要的。答案：A12解析：考查交际用语。Go on.继续
27、。So what？那又怎么样？Not to worry.别担心。How come？表示惊讶，意为“怎么会呢？”根据答语后一句“那不是你喜欢的吗？”可知选B。答案：B13解析：考查同位语从句。通过分析句子结构可知，所填空后面的句子不缺任何成分，故可知that引导的从句作possibility的同位语，故选D。答案：D14解析：考查短语辨析。句意为：我们的工作并不完美。事实上，我们还有很大的改进余地。far from完全不；apart from/except for除了之外；but for要不是。答案：A15解析：考查条件状语从句。句意为：“今天下午我们去爬山好吗？”“好的，如果不下雨就去。”根据
28、句意可知应选D项，答语省略了主句。答案：D.阅读理解语篇解读一项新的研究发现，睡眠不足会导致饥饿感增强，从而导致体重增加。1解析：细节理解题。从第一段中的increase feelings of hunger和倒数第三段第三句可知，睡眠不足会使人产生饥饿感，从而想吃高热量的食物，最终导致增重、肥胖，所以选B项。答案：B2解析：推理判断题。从倒数第三段中的“The results were not affected by how much people exercised.”可知，健身不会影响研究结论，即只要睡眠不足就会增重，无论你锻炼多少，由此可推出，牺牲睡眠时间来健身是不明智的，D项符合研究
29、结果。答案：D3解析：推理判断题。结合第三段和倒数第二段内容可知，7.7个小时是控制体重的最佳睡眠时间，可以让ghrelin 和leptin 保持平衡。答案：C4解析：写作目的题。文章客观介绍了一个有关”睡眠与肥胖”关系的研究结果，应是一则报道，而不是医学建议、广告，更不是研究发现的记录材料。答案：A语篇解读本文讲述了一个小女孩为了实现自己的梦想而拼搏、奋斗，最终如愿以偿的故事。告诉我们一个道理：如果有梦想，有恒心，一切皆有可能。 5解析：根据第一段首句“I used to watch her from my kitchen window.”以及第二段首句“One day I asked he
30、r why she practiced so much.”可知作者经常能看到这个女孩，但对她又不了解，所以最有可能的是她的邻居，故选A。答案：A6解析：从文中第三段中的“I am just too short.”可知答案。答案：A7解析：从第三段中的“she would probably never get to play for a top ranked teammuch less offered a scholarship”可以得知答案为C。答案：C8解析：从“My daddy told me if the dream is big enough，the facts dont count.”“her father said those coaches were wrong.They just did not understand the power of a dream.He told her that if she truly wanted a scholarship and that nothing could stop her except one thingher own attitude.”可以推出答案为A。答案：A9解析：本文讲述的是一个励志故事，所以C项“有志者事竟成”符合题意。 答案：C
