成人學(xué)位英語習(xí)題（2）

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

Archaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek and means, more or less, “the study of old things”. So, it is really a part of the study of history. However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs，but archaeologists (考古家) learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago. Normally, these are the hard materials that don't break down or disappear very quickly—things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal.

It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence of history--normally, the bacteria (細菌) in the air eat away at soft materials, like bodies, clothes and things made of wood. Occasionally, things are different.

In 1984, two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss, in the north of England. A bog is a very wet area of earth, with a lot of plants growing in it. It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup—walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear forever. The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out—a human foot! Naturally, the men called the police，who then found the rest of the body. Was it a case of murder? Possibly--but it was a death nearly two thousand years old. The two men had found a body from the time of the Roman invasion of Britain. Despite being so old, this body had skin, muscles, hair and internal organs—the scientists who examined him were able to look inside the man's stomach and find the food that he had eaten for his last meal!

Why was this man so well preserved? (76) It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe fi:om the bacteria that need oxygen to live. Also, the water in the bog was very acidic. The acid preserved the man's skin in the way that animal skin is preserved for leather coats and shoes.

How did he die? Understandably, archaeologists and other scientists wanted to know more about the person that they called,“Lindow Man”. (77) His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn't done heavy manual work in his life—he could have been a rich man. They found that he hadn't died by accident. The archaeologists believe that he was sacrificed to three different gods.

1. Which language does the word “archaeology”come from?

A. French. B. Greek. C. Roman. D. German.

【答案】B。答案：可能談不上什么常識儲備，我們帶著題干關(guān)鍵詞：“archaeology”一目一行定位答案范圍在：第一段第一句話?！癮rchaeology”一詞源于希臘語。因此答案選擇選項B。應(yīng)該是屬于送分題目，不含技巧成分。

2. The word “these” in the first paragraph refers to_______.

A. letters B. photographs C. paintings D. objects

【答案】D。答案：these“這些”，指代的東西前面已經(jīng)提及過，四個選項均有提及，A與B與C選項，是用and連接起來的沒有主次之分的四個并列詞語，反過來也就是說，它們當(dāng)中，我們無從選擇，答案是D。D選項就包含了前面三個選項的內(nèi)容。

具體解法：細節(jié)題。根據(jù)“these”一詞的上下語境可判斷，該詞是指上句話中的“objects left behind by the humans of long ago”，很久以前人們留下來諸如骨頭、石頭和金屬之類的物體，因此答案選擇D。

3. Which of the following helped to preserve“Lindow Man”?

A. Ice and Iow temperature. B. Bacteria and oxygen.

C. Soil and energy. D. Acid and water.

【答案】D。答案：帶著題干關(guān)鍵詞：preserve“Lindow Man” 一目一行定位答案范圍在：第四段的“he was in a very watery environment”和“the water in the bog was very acidic”，可知是由于充滿水的環(huán)境以及水里面的酸使尸體保存比較完好，因此答案選D。

4. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. “Lindow Man”was named after the person who first found him.

B. Historians usually use paper evidence, while archaeologists use hard evidence.

C. “Lindow Man” was found by two archaeologists in the south of England.

D. “Lindow Man”was good at manual work.

【答案】B。答案：此類題目，最好是帶著選項內(nèi)容去原文中尋找有價值的信息：A選項在第三段的細節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第三段可知“Lindow Man”是bog沼澤的名稱，故A錯;“Lindow Man”是兩個施工中的男子發(fā)現(xiàn)，故C錯;根據(jù)最后一段，可知“Lindow Man”是一個很少做體力活的富人，故D錯;而從第一段中，可得知B對。

認真做了第二小題的話，此題目就手到擒來了：However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs，but archaeologists (考古學(xué)家) learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago. Normally, these are the hard materials…….。

5. Which is the best title for the passage?

A. What Is Archaeology?

B. Archaeology and History

C. An Amazing Archaeological Discovery

D. The Death of“Lindow Man”

【答案】C。答案：此類題目我們有兩種方法：一、利用切題解題法，通過題干的設(shè)置，去了解文章的大意，因為出題人的題干設(shè)置一般而言，也是圍繞文章中心的;二、瀏覽每一自然段的第一句話和最后一句話，因為這些地方是主旨出沒的地方。

此題目利用第二種方法較好：第三段第一句“兩個人有了一個驚人的發(fā)現(xiàn)….”;第四段第一句話“為什么這個人保存得如此完好…..”;第五段“他是怎么死的…”。與之匹配的是C選項。

具此可知，文章主要介紹了“Lindow Man”這一考古學(xué)上的驚人發(fā)現(xiàn)，而非講述考古學(xué)的概念，也非考古學(xué)與歷史的關(guān)系或“Lindow Man”的死因，因此ABD均為以偏概全。

【全 文 翻 譯】

“考古學(xué)”一詞像其他的學(xué)術(shù)詞匯一樣，是來自于希臘語，意思大致為“研究舊的東西”。所以，它是歷史研究的一部分。然而，大多數(shù)歷史學(xué)家使用諸如信函、油畫和照片之類的紙質(zhì)證據(jù)，而考古學(xué)家則從很久以前人類留下的物體獲取信息。一般這些物體是不容易分解或者消失的硬東西，比如說人的骨頭、石頭和金屬制作的東西。

通常除了這些硬東西，很少能再發(fā)現(xiàn)其他的東西，因為空氣中的細菌常常會腐蝕掉尸體、衣服和木制品之類的軟東西。不過偶爾也會有例外。

1984年，在英格蘭北部一個叫做“Lindow Moss”的沼澤地區(qū)，兩個男子正在施工的時候有一個驚人的發(fā)現(xiàn)。該沼澤是一個浸滿水的地域，上面長了很多植物，可以比作一碗很大很稠的湯——一一旦你走錯了地方就會沉下去并永遠消失。兩個人正在施工時，其中一個人看見一個從水中翹起來的東西—— 一個人腳!于是他們就報了警，警察來之后發(fā)現(xiàn)了其余的尸體。這是一件謀殺案嗎?也許，但是這個“案件”差不多是兩千年前的事兒了。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)的這具尸體是古羅馬入侵英國時留下的。盡管尸體已經(jīng)很久遠，但還是保留著皮膚，肌肉，毛發(fā)和內(nèi)臟?？茖W(xué)家們甚至可以看到男子胃的內(nèi)部，以及里面最后一次所吃的食物。

為什么這具尸體保存如此完好?這是因為他處在一個非常潮濕多水的環(huán)境中，免受了需要氧氣才能存活的細菌的侵?jǐn)_。而且沼澤里面的水呈酸性，正如用酸保存皮革和皮鞋一樣，水里面的酸使男子的皮膚得以完好無損。

他又是怎么死去的呢?考古學(xué)家和科學(xué)家們理所當(dāng)然地都想知道這個被他們稱為“Lindow Man”男子的更多信息。他的手和手指甲表明他在生活中沒有干過重體力活——他生前可能是一個富人。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)該男子不是死于一個意外事件，考過學(xué)家們進一步認為該男子實際上是被獻祭給三個不同的神靈。

Passage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

The city has always been an engine of intellectual life, from the 18th-century cafes of London, where citizens gathered to discuss chemistry and politics, to the Left Bank bars of modern Paris, where Picasso talked about modem art. Without the metropolis, we might not have had the great art of Shakespeare.

And yet, city life isn't easy. Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing. Just being in an urban environment, they have found, impairs (損害) our basic mental processes. (78) After spending a few minutes on a crowded city street, the brain is less able to hold things in memory, and suffers from reduced self-control. While it's long been recognized that city life is exhausting, this new research suggests that cities actually dull our thinking, sometimes dramatically so.

One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain. Studies have demonstrated, for instance, that hospital patients recover more quickly when they can see trees from their windows, and that women living in public housing are better able to focus when their apartments overlook a lawn. Even these glimpses of nature improve brain performance, it seems, because they provide a mental break from the urban life.

This research arrives just as humans cross an important milestone (里碑). For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities. Instead of inhabiting wide-open spaces, we're crowded into concrete jungles, surrounded by traffic and millions of Strangers. In recent years, it's become clear that such unnatural surroundings have important implications for our mental and physical health, and can powerfully alter how we think.

This research is also leading some scientists to dabble (涉足) in urban design, as they look for ways to make the city less damaging to the brain. (79) The good news is that even slight alterations, such as planting more trees in the inner city or creating urban parks with a greater variety of plants, can significantly reduce the negative side effects of city life. The mind needs nature, and even a little bit can be a big help.

6. Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?

A. The city inspires talented people. 　　B. The city hurts your brain.

C. The city has many pleasures and benefits. D. The city seriously affects the natural balance.

【答案】B。答案：此題目可以放在最后。因為我們也許能夠在下面的題目中，獲得有關(guān)文章大意的信息。主旨題，根據(jù)文章大意，講的是城市生活影響我們的大腦，因此選擇選項B “The city hurts your brain?！?/p>

7. The word “metropolis” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.

A. citizen B. nature C. city D. stress

【答案】 C。答案：題目中的詞語“metropolis”，前面加了定冠詞“the”，說明前面有所指代了，B與D選項原文中沒有提及，排除;A選項放入句子中，句子意思不通順;根據(jù)上文一直在講the city的種種好處，可知此處metropolis也是city的意思。

8. People have just come to realize that_______.

A. human attention is a scarce resource 　B. city life can make people very tired

C. the city is an engine of intellectual life D. an urban environment is damaging to the brain

【答案】D。答案：根據(jù)文章第二段第一句話的and yet，表達轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以下面就應(yīng)該講述：城市生活的害處。排除C選項;下面一句話：Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing可知，人們開始認識到城市的環(huán)境對人體大腦的損害，因此選擇D。

9. What is the factor mentioned in the third paragraph that helps the hospital patients recover more quickly?

A. Nature. B. Better treatment. 　C. Experienced doctors. D. Good medicine.

【答案】A。答案：通過前面兩道小題，我們應(yīng)該對文章大意有了這樣的信息：城市生活的害處，環(huán)境對人們生活的影響。

仔細瀏覽選項，充分利用切題解題法，我們可以大膽推測答案就是A。因為對病人來說后面三個選項都是至關(guān)重要的，分不出彼此。A選項就切題了。

認證答案：帶著題干關(guān)鍵詞：一目一行定位答案范圍在：文章第三段第一句One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain，定語從句修飾nature，說它是對大腦有益的，緊接著舉了醫(yī)院病人看到更多的樹而康復(fù)更快的例子，因此本題選A。

10. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Different aspects (方面) of an urban environment, such as the crowded streets, can lead to an increase in self-control.

B. Small changes in urban design, cannot reduce the negative side effects of city life.

C. For the first time in history, the earth's population is more urban than rural.

D. A walk down a busy city street will improve brain performance.

【答案】C。答案：結(jié)合前面題目的信息與常識儲備，A選項應(yīng)該排除，擁擠的街道還能夠提高自我控制能力，很顯然，這是不可能的，排除;B選項：太絕對，否則我們城市里的街心花園，栽一些樹都沒有好處?利用常識儲備排除：同樣的理由排除D選項。

認證答案：細節(jié)題，根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities大多數(shù)人開始的時候是生活在城市“即城市人口比農(nóng)村人口多”，可知C the earth’s population is more urban than rural是正確的。

題外話：我們當(dāng)今不就是這么一種尷尬局面嗎?大量農(nóng)村人口蜂擁而至城市里。

再返回去完成第六小題：后面四道小題，提供的信息，都是城市的害處，尤其是對大腦，答案就是B。

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

Breastfeeding (母乳喂養(yǎng)) for a month or longer appears to reduce a woman's risk of getting diabetes (糖病) later in life, according to a new study. The breastfeeding and diabetes link has been reported in other studies, according to researcher Eleanor Schwarz. Yet, her study makes the link easier to believe. Her study is published in a journal of medicine in America. Schwarz and her colleagues looked at data about breastfeeding practices. They evaluated data on 2,233 women f~om Califomia. Of those, 405 were not mothers, 1,125 were mothers who breastfed for at least a month, and 703 were mothers who had never breastfed. They were 40 to 78 years old.

According to Schwarz's study, the risk of getting a diagnosis (診斷) of Type 2 diabetes for women who breastfed all their children for a month or longer was similar to that of women who had not given birth. But mothers who had never breastfed were nearly twice as likely to develop diabetes as women who had never given birth. Mothers who never breastfed were about 1.4 times as likely to develop diabetes as women who breastfed for one to three months, Schwarz found.

While one month of breastfeeding appears to make a difference, Schwarz says, even longer is better. (80) “Previous studies have shown the longer the mom breastfeeds, the more benefit for her body.” Many experts recommend breastfeeding for six months and continuing for a year, she says.

The diabetes-breastfeeding link is probably explained by belly fat. Mothers, who don't breastfeed, as they get older, may have more belly fat, as breastfeeding helps new mothers take off weight. “Belly fat increases the risk of diabetes as you get older,” she says.

The finding isn't surprising at all, says Kimberly Gregory. She often gives advice to women who get diabetes (occurring during pregnancy (懷孕)) that they are at risk for later getting Type 2 diabetes and suggests they breastfeed. The new findings will probably inspire Gregory to add to the-advice she gives moms-to-be about the benefits of breastfeeding. She often focuses on the benefits to the baby.

11. According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. About two thousand and two hundred old women took part in the study.

B. Eleanor Schwarz's research program was about men and women who suffered from diabetes.

C. Over one fifths of the women never got married.

D. Eleanor Schwarz's results seem more reliable.

【答案】D。答案：此題目帶著選項關(guān)鍵詞去原文中一目一行獵取有價值的線索，A選項在第一段，人數(shù)是二千多，但是參加者可不是old women，而是40到70之間。出題人是在考察您的眼力哪，如果您不仔細的話，就錯誤選擇了;

B選項：同樣在第一段，沒有提到男人。排除;C選項，原文中沒有提及，排除;

根據(jù)文章第一段“Yet, her study makes the link easier to believe”，可知她的研究使人們更容易信服，即是D選項“more reliable”的同義轉(zhuǎn)述。

12. According to Schwarz's findings, who are more likely to get diabetes later in life?

A. Those mothers who had never breastfed. 　B. Those mothers who never gave birth.

C. Those mothers who breastfed for a month. D. Those mothers who breastfed for six months.

【答案】A。答案：充分利用我們寶貴的常識儲備：母乳喂養(yǎng)的好處。答案是A。

認證答案：帶著題干關(guān)鍵詞：According to Schwarz's findings，一目一行定位答案范圍在：文章第二段第二句話：“But mothers who had never breastfed were nearly twice as likely to develop diabetes as women who had never given birth”可知，從未進行過母乳喂養(yǎng)的母親患糖尿病的幾率是最大的，因此選A。

13. Which of the following statements would Schwarz agree with?

A. Breastfeeding is not advisable because it is not good for a mom to keep a good shape.

B. Breastfeeding can greatly reduce a mother's chances of getting all kinds of serious disease.

C. Breastfeeding for a month is highly recommended: the longer, the better.

D. Breastfeeding for a month or longer makes babies smarter.

【答案】C。答案：利用常識解題法，五秒鐘解決它。A選項排除，大大有悖于常識儲備，與12小題相互矛盾;B選項，all 表達的意思太絕對，能夠包治百病，引申過度，排除;D選項不切題，文章主要是說母乳喂養(yǎng)對母親的好處，同時應(yīng)該是母乳喂養(yǎng)使小孩更加健康，而不是smarter。

認證答案：文章第三段開頭一句While one month of breastfeeding appears to make a difference, Schwarz says, even longer is better符合C選項的意思。

14. What does the author mean by “moms-to-be” in the last paragraph?

A. Women who are pregnant, especially for the first time.

B. Women who dream of having babiesfor the first time.

C. Women who already have children.

D. Women who have just got babies for the first time.

【答案】A。答案：其實此題目我們完全可以從字面上，揪出正確答案來：moms-to-be，to be 不定式表達將來的動作，即moms 的動作在將來，意思就是“準(zhǔn)媽媽們”，因此選A“懷孕的女性”。

認證答案：最后一自然段倒數(shù)第二句話。答案是A。

15. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?

A. Breasffeeding May Enhance Babies' Chances of Survival

B. Breasffeeding May Lower Moms' Diabetes Risk

C. Breasffeeding May Become Very Fashioaable in Near Future

D. Breasffeeding May Help Women Lose Weight

【答案】B。答案：結(jié)合前面題目提供的信息，我們不難發(fā)現(xiàn)文章大意是：母乳喂養(yǎng)的好處，降低糖尿病的發(fā)生。與之匹配的選項B。

忒詳解：主旨題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知，文章主要介紹母乳喂養(yǎng)和患糖尿病之間的關(guān)系，及B Breastfeeding May Lower Moms’ Diabetes Risk母乳喂養(yǎng)降低母親患糖尿病幾率。

第二部分 詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)

16. You should carefully think over_____ the manager said at the meeting.

A. that B. which C. what D. whose

答案：從句接在think over 動詞短語的后面，說明這是一個賓語從句;從句the manager said 缺少賓語，即賓語從句不完整，A選項排除;B選項要求從句前面有所指代，而題干中沒有，排除;D選項，whose后面接名詞，也沒有提供，排除;答案是 C。

一網(wǎng)支招： what = all that，名詞性從句中that和what 是高頻考點 。至于為什么請參閱本網(wǎng)校語法部分。

17. Last week I wrote to the hotel to book a room, but they _____ yet.

A. didn't answer B. wasn't answering 　C. hadn't answered D. haven't answered

答案：仔細觀察選項，我們知道此題目考察時態(tài)。首先判斷語言環(huán)境：根據(jù)句子大意，空格處的語言環(huán)境應(yīng)該是“現(xiàn)在”(但是直到現(xiàn)在都沒有回復(fù))。故而答案不就一目了然了嗎?答案是D。

一網(wǎng)支招：做時態(tài)和語態(tài)的題目，判斷語言環(huán)境是最最重要的了。即判斷記住是說什么時候的事情，說過去的事情用過去的時態(tài)，說現(xiàn)在的事情用現(xiàn)在的時態(tài);說將來的事情用將來的時態(tài)。最最基本的弄清楚出題人的意圖，考察您什么東西，我親愛的學(xué)員朋友，當(dāng)作一項能力去培養(yǎng)吧。

18. Diana felt very much upset at ___to the party as she had longed to go for a long time.

A. having not been invited B. not having been invited

C. not to be invited D. to be not invited

答案：仔細瀏覽選項，我們知道，此題目考察非謂語。非謂語動詞invite作介詞賓語，非謂語動詞invite與主語Diana之間是被動的邏輯關(guān)系，因為“沒被邀請參加晚會”這個動作發(fā)生在謂語動作felt之前，所以用非謂語的完成時，排除A與B選項;再者，非謂語的否定詞not要置于非謂語的前面。答案是B。

一網(wǎng)溫馨提醒：弄清楚出題人的意圖，是一項我們必須長期培養(yǎng)的能力。而且一般而言語言點是不會重復(fù)的。但是這里有三十小題，可能也有例外。千萬千萬注意那些高頻考點。

19. On no account __ held responsible for the car accident, so he should not be put into prison.

A. the driver can be B. can the driver be 　C. the driver be D. be the driver

答案：仔細瀏覽選項，出題人的意圖就一目了然了：我們不難發(fā)現(xiàn)，此題目考察倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)(A與C選項正常語序;B與D選項，倒裝結(jié)構(gòu));所以我們最首先弄清楚的是是否倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。如何判斷是否倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)：按照中文的正常語序，不能呆在句首的詞語，而呆在了句首，那么這句話就得倒裝，尤其是那些否定意義的詞語。

本題目中的On no account“決不”，按照中文語序，就不應(yīng)該呆在句首，所以需要倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)，排除A與C選項;但D出現(xiàn)謂語動詞be原形不對，不可能沒有跡象，莫名其妙出現(xiàn)動詞原形的，這點也請學(xué)員朋友千萬千萬注意。

20. All the kids are crying now. What_____makes them so unhappy?

A. it is B. is it C. it is that D. is it that

答案：親愛的學(xué)員朋友，看到C與D選項，難道您沒有一點感觸：出題人考察強調(diào)句結(jié)構(gòu)。

一、此題目加上選項的謂語有三個，利用“連詞=謂語個數(shù)—1”可知，此題目需要兩個連詞，排除A與B;二、是否強調(diào)句：it is …that…,這句話還原為陳述句：it is what that makes them so unhappy。是一個通順的句子，所以需要強調(diào)句結(jié)構(gòu)。后面的問號只能在D選項中得到體現(xiàn)，答案是D。

好好琢磨一下吧，多做一些真題，能夠讓你出題人都考您些什么。

21. Unfortunately, the package I was expecting was _____ to the wrong address.

A. written B. given C. packed D. delivered

答案：考察動詞詞義，只能是您的詞匯量了，別人幫您的不多，記憶單詞是一永恒的話題。

被動語態(tài)。A被寫，B被給予，C被包裹，D被送往，只有D答案符合題意。

22. _____by a large audience, he felt very nervous and didn't know what to say.

A. Watching B. Watch C. Watched D. Having watched

答案：此題目出題人考察我們的謂語或非謂語。B選項，排除，因為此題目不能再有謂語(沒有連詞);判斷主語與非謂語的邏輯關(guān)系：He不能watch這個動作，同時后面的關(guān)鍵詞by也同樣給了您這樣的暗示。所以非謂語動作是被動語態(tài)。答案是C。

句子大意是：被一大群觀眾看著，他才感到很緊張不知道說什么好。

23. I'm very grateful for your help and hope to do something for you_____in the future.

A. in exchange B. instead C. in return D. in particular

答案：出題人意圖：考察差幾個短語的意思。四個選項皆為高頻考點。句子大意是既然您幫助了我，我將來也要為您做點事情，作為_____。利用您流利的中文，答案不就明明白白清清楚楚了嗎。作為回報。A作為交換，B代替，頂替，C作為回報，D特別地，由其。只有C符合題意。

in exchange 作為回報，可能會誤選。

24. I can ____you that the animals are well cared for in our zoo, so you needn't worry about them.

A. suppose B. assume C. assure D. grant

答案：考察幾個動詞的詞義。空格處應(yīng)該填入“我保證”之類的詞語。A。猜想，認為，B假設(shè)， 猜想，C使相信; 使確信，D準(zhǔn)許; 答應(yīng)給予。只有C符合題意，assure sb that從句“使某人確信……”

同時A與B選項有同樣的意思，某種程度上，也可排除，答案是C。

25. The drowning boy made a _____ attempt to catch the rope thrown to him.

A. dangerous B. graceful C. gentle D. desperate

答案：drowning這個詞語認得吧“溺水的，快要淹死的”，既然如此，還能夠B與D嗎?

A危險的，B優(yōu)雅的，C溫和的，D拼命的，只有D符合題意。

26. If we_____early tomorrow morning, we will reach the coast before dark.

A. take off B. set off C. set up D. take up。

答案：選B，考察幾個動詞短語的意思，A脫掉，(飛機)起飛;B出發(fā)，動身;C建立，建造;D拿起，占去(時間/空間)，只有B符合題意，

27. A lot of people mistake John for Bill because they _____ each other in appearance too much!

A. weave B. utilize C. reveal D. resemble

答案：考察幾個動詞的詞義，A編， 織; 織成，B利用， 使用，C顯示; 露出，D看起來像。只有D符合題意

28. When there are cordial relations between the two countries, we mean there exists a_____ relationship between them.

A. friendly B. hostile C. fertile D. complicated

答案：考察幾個形容詞詞義，關(guān)鍵詞we mean，告訴我們前后句子，意思一樣?？崭裉帒?yīng)該填入與cordial 同義轉(zhuǎn)述的詞語，A友好的，友善的，B懷有敵意的， 不友善的，C多產(chǎn)的， 富饒的，D結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜的。只有A符合題意。

29. The patient's recovery was very encouraging as he could_____get out of bed without help.

A. only B. almost C. merely D. hardly

答案：A與C選項可以排除，因為它們你打的意思幾乎一模一樣;D選項表達否定，不符合題意。答案是B。

A只，僅僅，B幾乎， C僅僅，只是， D幾乎不，只有B符合題意。
