6、案 B解析 本题考核的知识点是：不定代词的用法。空格上文提到，睡眠分为浅睡阶段和深睡阶段。因此空格处_ kind of sleep指的就是这两种睡眠。四个备选项中，首先排除D项。any 指“任何一个”，如：You can buy sugar at any big store.你可以在任何一家大商店里买到糖。余下的选项中，each指两个或多个中的每一个，例如：Each of them thinks different thoughts.他们中的每一个人都有不同的想法。either表示两者之一，表示肯定，如：You can park on either side of the street. 在街
7、道的哪边停车都可以。neither表否定含义，表示“两者都不”。如：Neither of us could understand German.我们两个谁也不懂德语。空格所在的分句里出现的关键词at all一般与否定词连用，即 not at all，意为“一点也不，根本不”，因而这里应填表否定含义的词，B正确，意为“人们对两类睡眠都没有完全了解”。2. 答案 C解析 本题考核的知识点是：动词词义辨析。intend意为“想要，打算，企图”，intend to do sth. (=mean to do sth.)意为“打算做某事”，主语一般是有生命的事物。如：I hear they intend
8、to marry. 我听说他们要结婚了。require意为“需要，要求，命令”，be required to do sth.意为“被要求/必须做某事”，如：All passengers are required to show their tickets.所有乘客都必须出示车票。显然不能说，“浅睡眠阶段被要求做某事”。assume意为“假定，设想”，be assumed to do sth.意为“被假定/认为做某事”，如：He is assumed to be a Belgian.（他被认为是个比利时人。）infer意为“推论，推断”，但它不用于infer sth. to do结构中，而用于i
9、nfer sth. from sth.结构中，如：Much of the meaning must be inferred from the context.（大部分含意必须从上下文中推断。）因此，只有assume符合上下文的要求。另外，根据上文可知，人们对睡眠的两个阶段都不十分了解，因此有关浅睡眠的功能的论述只是一种推测，C为正确项。3. 答案 C解析 本题考核的知识点是：形容词词义辨析。subtle意为“微妙的，难以捉摸的”，如：He complained that these people were subtle. 他抱怨说这些人难以捉摸。obvious意为“明显的”；mysteriou
10、s意为“难以解释或无法理解的”；doubtful意为“可疑的，值得怀疑的”，如He is a doubtful character. 他是个可疑的人物。前文提到人们对两种睡眠阶段都不是很了解时用了well-understood一词，从逻辑语意上可以推出人们对non-REM sleep也不很了解，因此，几个选项中mysterious最合适。4. 答案 B解析 本题考核的知识点是：动词词义辨析。空格所在句子是一个长句，主干部分是The new experiments suggest fascinating explanations. such as引导的短语是对experiments的举例说明。t
11、hese指的是the new experiments，空格处填入的过去分词表示被动含义，相当于一个后置定语从句，即these which are _ for the first time，用来修饰these。四个选项中，maintain意为“保持，维持”，与句中的for the first time相矛盾；settle意为“解决”，afford意为“支付得起”，与experiments不搭配。describe意为“描述”，用在文中表示“（会议上）描述的一些新实验”，符合文意。5. 答案 D解析 本题考核的知识点是：短语语意辨析。四个选项都可与介词of连用。in the light of (=
12、in light of/according to)意为“按照，根据，考虑到”，如：He rewrote the book in the light of further research.（他根据进一步的研究重写了那部书。）by virtue of意为“依靠，由于”，如：She got the job by virtue of her greater experience.（她由于经验较为丰富而得到了那份工作。）with the exception of(= except)意为“除了之外”，如：All his novels are set in Italy with the exception
13、 of his last.（他的小说除最后一部外全是以意大利为背景。）显然，这三个含义代入文中都不符合文意。for the purpose of可以看作是一个固定短语，意为“为了的目的”，如：The three groups have been combined for the purpose of this study.（为了这项研究工作，三个小组业已合并。）但本文中却不是把它作为一个固定短语使用，而且分成了两个部分，explanations常与for搭配，表示“解释的原因”， the purpose of non-REM sleep在上文中出现过，表示“深睡眠的作用”，正确答案是D。6.
14、答案 C解析 本题考核的知识点是：名词词义辨析。for example一词提示空格所在部分是衔接上文，解释深睡眠的作用的举例。reduction意为“减少”；deprivation意为“剥夺”；restriction意为“限制”。destruction意为“破坏，毁灭”，通常指具体事物，如：The fire caused the destruction of my books.这场大火使我的藏书被毁坏。“对老鼠产生致命影响”的应是“睡眠的剥夺”，所以C符合题意。7. 答案 A解析 本题考核的知识点是：介词的用法。upon+名词/动名词=when引导的从句，其中upon相当于when/direc
15、tly after，表示“当时”。如：Upon entering the room（=When I entered the room）, I found him lying on the floor.用在文中表示“当检查死亡老鼠的尸体时”，因此A为正确答案。through意为“凭借，用的方法”； by意为“凭借，靠，通过”，主要表示方法、手段；with意为“用，使用；以”。本文如果使用这些介词，首先需要在名词examination前加上定冠词the；其次其逻辑主语就是句子的主语the animals，这样含义就成了“动物通过检查动物尸体”，不符合逻辑。8. 答案 D解析 本题考核的知识点：短语
16、语意辨析。pay attention to 意为“注意”，如：pay attention to state affairs关心国大事；catch sight of (=see)意义“看到，发现”，如：She caught sight of a car in the distance.她一眼瞥见了远处的汽车；lay emphasis on (=emphasize)意为“重视”，如：He laid a strong emphasis on the study of foreign languages.他把重点放在学习外训上；cast/throw/shed light on意为“使（问题等）较容易理
17、解”，如：Recent research has shed new light on the causes of the disease.最近的研究结果可以使人进一步了解导致这种疾病的原因。根据句意，应选D，表示“一位研究人员使人们进一步了解动物死亡的奥秘”。9. 答案 A解析 本题考核的知识点是：动词词义辨析。develop意为“（逐渐）显现出，（开始）患（病）”，如：She developed measles. 她得了麻疹。produce意为“制造，产生”，如：Hard work often produces good results.努力工作经常会有好结果。stimulate意为“促进，
18、刺激”，如：Exercise stimulates the flow of blood.体操促进血液流动。induce意为“引诱，诱使”。如：Too much food induces sleepiness.吃得过饱会产生睡意。本题的关键词bacterial infections of blood (血液细菌感染)是一种病，根据习惯搭配，应该用develop。10. 答案 B解析 本题考核的知识点是：逻辑关系。本句是一个复合句。主句The rats develop bacterial infections of the blood用的是一般现在时，根据时态一致的原则，从句也应该用现在时。但在本
19、题中，从句用的是过去完成时。很显然，主从句的时态不一致。时态不一致一般是由两个原因引起的：一，时间状语，如：Im doing my homework, while I was watching TV this time yesterday.二，虚拟语气的使用，如：If I were you, I would go there. 如果我是你，我就去那儿。此题并没有涉及时间状语因此导致时态不一致的原因是虚拟语气的使用。If意为“如果”，跟虚拟语气时，主句应相应地使用虚似语气，如：The conference wouldnt been so successful, if we hadnt made
20、adequate preparations.如果我们不做充分的准备，会议是不会开得这么成功的。as if 意为“好像”，可以接虚拟语气，如：He behaved as if nothing had happened.（他表现得若无其事。）only if 意为“只有”，接条件从句，一般引起主句的倒装现象，如：Only if the red light comes on is there any danger to employees.只有红灯闪亮时才有危及职工的险情。if only意为“要是就好了”，接虚拟语气，一般用来引导感叹句，如：If only she had known where to
21、 find you.由于文中只有从句使用了虚拟语气，因此应选B，意为“似乎它们的免疫系统已经崩溃”。三、全文翻译睡眠分为浅睡阶段（REM）和较长时间的深睡阶段(non-REM)。浅睡阶段伴有快速的眼睛运动和做梦的特征。人们对两个阶段的睡眠都不太了解，不过人们推测，浅睡眠具有一些大脑修复功能。而深睡眠的作用则更更加令人费解。在明尼阿波利斯举行的由睡眠研究协会组织的近期会议上首次描述了一些新实验，类似这样的实验对深睡眠的作用进行了吸引人的阐释。例如，人们早有所知，完全剥夺睡眠会100使老鼠致命，然而，在检查死亡鼠类的尸体之后，发现这些动物看起来却非常正常。现在，一位研究人员已揭开了这些动物死亡的奥
22、秘。老鼠患了血液细菌感染，就好像它们的免疫系统抵御疾病原体的自我保护机制已崩溃。Section Reading ComprehensionPassage l Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of.

23、ide for export at competitive prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living. By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labor, and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment. It lowers the costs of many services: without adver

25、buy. Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for l
26、ong, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the inferior article more than once.

27、t of the community than any other force I can think of.There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs. He was drawing excessively fine distinctions. Of course ad
28、vertising seeks to persuade. If its message were confined merely to informationand that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasiveadvertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention. But
29、 perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.11.

33、通过驳斥广告重在劝说而非提供信息的观点，指出广告具有劝诱性是无可厚非的。第一段到第三段：先指出做广告是值得的，然后列举广告的优点，最后得出结论：广告给社会带来的物质利益比其他的形式都大。第四段和第五段：对知名人士的话进行批评，为广告辨护，提出广告既要提供信息，又不可避免地要劝说大众。二、试题分析11.By the first sentence of the passage the author means that_.文章首句的意思是_ 。A he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertisingA 他对广告价格了如指掌B everybody kn
34、ows well that advertising is money consumingB 人人都知道广告很费钱C advertising costs money like everything elseC 像做其他事一样，做广告要花钱D it is worthwhile to spend money on advertisingD 把钱用在广告上很值得答案 D解析 本题考核的知识点是：句意题。首先看句子语法，第一句的重点是对as well as的理解。as well as 有两种意思：1）相当于in addition (to),意为“除外，同，和，也”，如：He gave me money
35、as well as advice. 2)用作连词引出比较对象，意为“和一样好”。第2）种含义放在本文中才讲得通，这里as well as any相当于as well as any（money spent）, I know of 是定语从句，修饰any。其次，看下文内容。从文章第二句“它直接有助于”可以推出作者对广告的作用持肯定态度。因此第一句应该被理解为“花在广告上的钱和任何别处花的钱一样值得”。 D项正是这个含义的概括，因此为正确项。B、C选项仅停留在“广告花费钱”的含义上，体现不了对广告的肯定态度；选项A是对从句“I know of”的错误理解。命题意图要求考生正确理解句中为避免重复而省
36、略的部分。12. In the passage, which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of advertising?哪个选项不是文中提到的广告的优点？A Securing greater fame. A 保障更高的知名度B Providing more jobs.B 提供更多的工作C Enhancing living standards.C 提高生活水平D Reducing newspaper cost.D 降低报纸成本答案 A解析 本题考核的知识点是：事实细节题。第一段作者对广告给予肯定并且列举广告带来的诸多益处：
37、（1）它直接有助于商品以合理价格迅速销出；（2）在稳定国内市场的同时，使产品能够以有竞争力的价格进入国际市场；（3）它给人以新的消费观，从而大大提高人们的生活水准；（4）它有助于增加市场需求，扩大劳动力市场，有效地扩大就业；（5）它使日报等公共事业的服务价格低廉。由此可见，B、C和D选项都在文中直接涉及，可以排除。第二段首句虽然谈到广告为人们购买的产品和服务的合理价格提供了保障，但是未提及A选项“保障更高的知名度”的内容，因而为正确答案。注意：这种“which is not included”题型相当于except题型，一般要在大范围内搜索，排除原文中已经提到的选项或直接找出与原文不符的选项。
38、潜在命题点：依据此内容可另出一题：What is the biggest advantage of advertising?AProviding more jobs.BEnhancing living standards.CReducing the costs of many services.DEnsuring the quality of the products and services.答案为D。关键是第二段首句“most important of all” 表明下面所述为最重要的优势，因此在列举题中，要注意关联词的作用。此外，也可用排除法，A、B、C在文中并列，作用相仿，成为答案几率
39、均等，故都应该排除。13. The author deems that the well-known TV personality is_.作者认为文中提到的知名人士_。A very precise in passing his judgment on advertisingA 准确地表达了他对广告的评价B interested in nothing but the buyers attentionB 只关心消费者的注意力C correct in telling the difference between persuasion and informationC 区分劝说和提供信息是有道理的D
40、 obviously partial in his views on advertisingD 对广告的评价明显存有偏见答案 D解析 本题考核的知识点是：本题考核的知识点是：作者观点题。题干要求考生回答作者对文中提到的知名人士的看法。文章第四段谈到该知名人士对广告持否定态度，即他批评广告更多的是在劝诱观众，而不是提供信息。这显然与作者前面第三段用大篇幅对广告赞扬的态度大相径庭，所以作者马上对这种观点进行驳斥，以维护自己的观点。作者认为“他把两者区分得过于细微。因为广告不可避免地要劝说消费者，如果广告的内容仅仅限于提供信息，那将会乏味之极”。由引可以推论作者对知名人士看法持否定态度。因此D选项为
41、正确选项。A选项和C选项都持肯定态度，可以排除。而B选项也不对，因为在文中并未讨论知名人士的兴趣和关心对象问题。nothing but意为：只有，除了之外都不。命题意图要求考生正确理解文章局部细节体现的作者态度。14. In the authors opinion,_.在作者看来_。A advertising can seldom bring material benefit to man by providing informationA 广告很少能够通过提供信息给人们带来物质利益B advertising informs people of new ideas rather than wi
42、ns them overB 广告给人以新的观念，而不在于说服人C there is nothing wrong with advertising in persuading the buyerC 广告向购买者促销是无可非议的D the buyer is not interested in getting information from an advertisementD 消费者对从广告获得信息不感兴趣答案 C解析 本题考核的知识点是：作者观点题。本题考查作者对广告所持的观点。读完全文后，我们已经很清楚作者对广告的态度和观点。先是在前三段肯定广告给社会带来的诸多好处，然后在第四段和第四段又指出
43、广告劝说消费者不仅是不可避免的也是必要的，否则便失去了吸引力，不能把广告的劝诱性作为批评它的论据。C选项恰恰符合这一观点，为正确答案。A选项与第三段的内容相悖。B选项与第四段作者提出的“广告不可避免地要劝说消费者，内容不仅仅限于提供信息”的看法不一致。D选项不正确，作者在末段提到，只提供信息的广告不会引起观众的兴趣，不能由此推出，消费者对广告信息毫无兴趣。win sb. over(to sth.)=win sb. to do sth. 意思是“说服某人做某事”。注意：做此类局部作者态度题，可以先看选项中是否有直接可排除之选项；不能排除的再定位，对照进行排除。三、长难句解析和佳句赏析长难句It
44、serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable price, thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices.本句的主干是It serves to assist, thereby establishing and so making, thereby 后是两个并列分词短语做结果状语。Serve directly to do sth.
45、意思是：直接用于。如：The evidence serves directly to support what the defendant said. 这些证据直接支持被告的陈述。 make it +形容词+to do sth.意思是：使成为可能。译本：它直接有利于商品以合理的价格快速地销售，从而建立稳固的国内市场，并且有可能以有竞争力的价格提供出口商品。Apart from the fact that twenty-seven acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare prom
46、ote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements.句子中的主干是no regular advertiser dare promote a product。前面apart from引导介词结构做状语，其中fact后是that引导的同位语从句；主句的宾语product后是由that 引导的定语从句做后置定语。译文：除了国会制定的27项法案对广告词加以约束之外，也没有哪个正规的广告商胆敢推销与广告承诺不符的产品。If you see an article consistently advertised,
47、it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it , and that it represents good value.该句是一个主从复合句，if引导条件状语从句，主句是it is the surest proof，I know 做proof的后置定语，两个that 引导的并列从句都是proof的同位语从句。译文：如果你看到一种商品不断地做广告，我认为这是最可靠的证明，即此商品一定与其宣传名副其实，一定体现良好的价值。If its message were confined merely to informationand that in itself would
