62、more,but scientists have had a tough time determining“which came first,the chicken or the egg,”says Julie CLumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor4 In other words,it hasnt been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping,or whether leads to weight gainBoth scenarios Seemed
63、equally possible5 To get a better idea of which causes which,Lumeng and colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United StatesThe parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that yearThree years later, the parents answered the same questions.6By sixth gr

73、? Maybe youll enjoy doing so after a period of timeStaying in a foreign country is in some way challenging,but its interesting as well,isnt it? Enjoy your stay in China!Yours Li Ming 解析21C 考查冠词。前者为“下个月的某个(不确定)星期六”,但是具体的日期(确定的日期)我不记得了。22A 托德以500美元的低价买到了电视机,这是他始料未及的。该题考查动词搭配,即以某价格购买某物,buy sth for+(mon
74、ey),而pay后面通常接money。cost没有类似搭配,spend则通常与on搭配。23D 我与父母在一起度周末的机会极其难得。occasions(场合)表示的就是这种机会,关系副词when引导定语从句修饰occasions。24B 考查交际用语。说话者所叙述内容是“我不久就要接到牛津大学的录取通知书了”,所以答语为:Congratulation!25A 该题考查句式结构知识。关键信息就在于后句前面的but。作为并列连词,它的前面应该是另一个分句而不是短语(B、D)或从句(C),故而选A。26B 考查不定代词。对于他当时怎么想的我永远也不会知道,别人也不会知道。anyone else表示“
75、任何别的人”。27C 该题第一眼给人的感觉是考查非谓语动词搭配,但分析后会发现是对时态的考查,关键在于其中隐含了一个定语从句he stuck to(省略了that或which),proved则是过去式,为系动词,后面的correct是它的表语。全句意为:随着时间的推移,他坚持的那个理论证明是正确的。28C 该题考查连词。其中的信息词well很关键。如果忽视了它,则会误填how。但有了它,则必须填if。全句为:设计员问我们工程进展是否顺利。29D 介词考查题。第一句问的是“你爸爸何时回家?”,twelve oclock是一个时间点。in通常不和时间点搭配;since加时间点常表示一段时间来持续的
76、动作,不符合句子语境;until加时间点常表示“到某时为止(以及在终止到这个时间以前所发生的事情),也不符合语境。after加时间点,表示十二点后发生的动作,即“过了十二点回家”。30C 短语动词辨析题。“我”这些年来一直为别人打工,希望自己能够“建立起”自己的企业,故选C。31D 考查情态动词。他本该坐公交车来,但也可能不坐公交。是根据事实进行的一般性的推断。至于B项cannot则一般不会用在这种场合表示判断。如果用了,它表示“不可能”或行“不能”,与语境不符。32A Chris既聪明又用功,难怪他考试老得第一。no wonder意为“难怪;怪不得”。33A 考查连词。现在出去太晚了,再说,
77、天上正下着雪。besides表示“除此之外,还”。34D 考查倒装结构。为了句子的生动,或表示意外情况,说话者用了倒装句。“就在厨房那边站着一个我从未见过的女孩”。由于是全部倒装,所以不用助动词。35B 考查非谓语动词(不定式)。其中的定语从句we can imagine对做题有干扰作用。To reduce是不定式作目的状语。全句为:那是我们能想象到的减少学生寝室用水的唯一的办法。36C 从下文38空后面“So John took MrDaves fishing with him”以及最后一段“John has made a special fishing rod that Mr.Daves
78、can use,so they still go fishing together”得知。37B 此处指我的丈夫和大卫之间的友谊得到发展成了好明友。develop有“发展,逐渐形成”之意。38D 妻了去世,留下大卫形影相吊,非常孤单。从下文“so John took MrDaves fishing with him every time he went”的行文逻辑可以推断此处选alone,其他选项缺乏支撑信息。39B energetic“精力充沛的”,从下文“never tired of being with John”得知。40A put into“送进”,从下文得知大卫被送进了养老院。41
79、B 上文提到“He lost his speech”,不能和别人进行语言交流,所以选communicate。42C 不能动,不能说话,这使得原来精力充沛的大卫很沮丧,其他选项缺乏支持信息。43D 把大卫从养老院带出来需要得到养老院的“允许、许可”,所以选permission。44B 因为出来又能够在一起了,两个人特别激动。所以选excited。45A 大卫半身不遂,无法上车,需要“抱上车去,抬上车去”。46D 之所以会疼痛,是因为没有知觉的身体重量压到有知觉的身体一边,通过上下文判断此处是“重量”。47B 此处是非限定性定语从句,关系代词which代指上文的the truck,a real c
80、owboy Cadillac。48D 根据上下文得知:为了能载大卫出来兜风,丈夫卖掉了他喜欢的凯迪拉克,买了一辆厢式货车。49B 厢式货车可以装配轮椅,这正是为半身不遂的大卫专门准备的。50C 上文提到“it was very painful for MrDaves to be lifted into Johns truckBecause he was paralyzed on one sidethe weight of that side pulled heavily on his good side”,坐在轮椅上大大减轻了大卫的痛苦,根据上下文选ease,“减轻、缓和”之意。51D 大卫是
81、一个半身不遂的人,所以能适合他用的钓竿和普通的不一样,这个钓竿一定是“特别”一点,大卫才能使用。52C 根据上下文判断,此处的逻辑关系属因果关系。53B 上文提到“He lost his speech”,无法交谈“talk”,无法告诉养老院的工作人员大卫是谁,但丈夫对大卫无微不至的关心照顾,还是让人们误以为我丈夫是大卫的儿子。54A give up“放弃”之意。55B 本文的主题就是借丈夫和大卫的事例,呼吁人与人之间要多帮助,主题在此处得以升华,上文“to help a friend”也有暗示,所以此处选help。第三部分56B 根据第2段“The record was previously
82、held by another pop heavyweight,Justin Bieber,whose song Babyhad a little more than 804 million views at press time”可得出结论。57C 根据第4段“And in September,Gangnam Stylealso became the most liked video on YouTubenow with nearly 54 million thumbs up”可知Gangnam Style得到的是5.4 million 的好评,而不是恶评thumbs down。58C 根据
83、第5段“PSY,your certificate is waiting here at our office,come and pick it up any time!”这句话可知the Guinness Book of world Records已经为他准备好证书了,显然是认可了他所取得的成绩。59A 根据“.it even has a shot at becoming the first video to get more than one billion viewsIf it maintains its current rate of around six million new vie
84、ws per day,Gangnam Stylewould be in line to break that record by the end of the year”可知。60B 根据“It became a focus in the 2012 US presidential elections with the now faroous Mitt Romney Style video”可知正确答案为B。61B 从文章第一段可知,火山爆发产生的火山灰影响了(disturbing)航班起降并造成道路堵塞(closing roads)。62A 从该词所在句子来看,表示火山一直是“沉寂的”,因此使
85、用了相对应的火山术语“inactive(不活跃的)”63C 尽管引用的是一个司机的话,但他代表的是很多“witnesses”的看法,而且作者在前面还用了一个dramatic做铺垫,因此尽管是火山爆发,但实际上给人们的印象是attractive。64A 这一句依据的是第八段火山专家(volcanologist)的判断。65D 该题目全面概括文章内容。66D 细节理解题。从第1段中的前两句话可得出答案。67C 细节理解题。从第3段中的“Most of the volunteers had just completed college”这句话便知选项C为正确答案。68B 主旨大意题。第4段主要介绍了
