29、RSATION TWO17、B 18、A 19、B 20、A 21、BPART III LANGUAGE USAGE22、A考点考查动词词义辨析。23、B解析状语从句连词题。根据句意可知，逗号前后的两个分句是让步关系。 选项C和D都不引导让步状语从句，故均排除；选项A虽然能引导让步状语从 句，但不能让从句形成倒装结构，因此排除。选项B引导让步状语从句时，和连 词as一样，意为“尽管，虽然”，常可将作表语或作状语的形容词、名词、副词 以及情态动词或助动词之后的动词原形提到句首，形成倒装结构，所以选项B 为答案。24、C解析space指“太空,空中，空间”时无冠词,指“间隔”时用a/onespac
30、e 表示一个间隔。25、B解析名词形异义近辨析。虽然四个名词都有“决心，决定”的意思。但 New Years resolution是一个固定的用法。望各位考生注意，因此建议各位在准备 专四考试时多积累英语的固定搭配和表达。26、D解析此题考查名词辨析。arrangements ”安排。指对某事物在顺序或关 系上进行调整和安排。blueprints ”计划，蓝图”，尤指计划得非常详细的最终方 案。layouts指城市、花园、建筑等“布局，设计，安排:schemes指系统的“计 划。或图私利的各种“阴谋诡计”或不切实际的“幻想，打算”。根据句意可知 选D。27、C解析clothing是“衣服，被褥
31、”的总称，不能用one或the one来指代。 what相当于“先行词+that”,后边要接从句。所以只能用that指代clothing。28、A解析考查时态一般现在时表示将来时间可见于以下三种句型，首先常见于时间状语从句 和条件状语从句中，对应D选项；其次常用于I hope that, I bet that结构中，对 应 B 选项；一般现在时还可用于 see (to it)that, make sure that, make certain that 等句型，对应C选项。A选项“滚石不生苔”为真理、格言、科学事实等客观存 在，用一般现在时，应选A。29、B解析 1考查虚拟语气。在“lt+be
32、+a.+that从句”中，that引导的主语从句谓 语动词常用“(should)+动词原形”。用于该句型的形容词有necessary, important, urgent, essential, imperative, appropriate, advisable, desirable 等。30、C解析本句大意为：虽然看上去不大可能，但是十亿年前我们的祖先有可 能与这种单细胞的生物十分相似。as+adj./adv.+as可引导让步状语从句，其中第 一个as也可省略。31、B解析考查形容词的含义与用法。B项regrettable表示“令人遗憾的，可惜 的，一般用来描述某件事；A项regretfu
33、l表示“后悔的，惋惜的” 一般用来形 容人；C项regretting和D项regretted都是分词形式，一般不作形容词。应选B。这两个政府之间一直缺乏互信，这很令人遗憾。32、C解析这里指球赛获胜者捧着奖杯得意的样子，选C合适。33、D解析句意理解题。D中的for cutting sausage说明the knife的“目的”，故 为答案。A、B、C中for引导的短语均表示“对象二34、C解析考查动词辨析。affect往往指产生负面“影响，符合critics(评论家) 这一语境，故正确。effect “实现，使生效，引起。强调产生的效果；lessen “减 少，减轻”,不修饰quality；
34、 decline作及物动词时意为“拒绝”,不符合题意, 作不及物动词时意为“下降二35、B解析祈使句的主语通常为第二人称(you),但一般都被省略，只有在特殊 的情况下才把主语(you)补充出来。例如：Put it on the table.You be quiet.有时祈使句的主语也可以是everybody, somebody, anybody, nobody等 不定代词。例如：Everybody shut their eyes.Nobody move.有的祈使句通常以let开始，用以第一或第三人称。例如Let me have a look.Let each man decide for h
35、imself.36 C37、D解析考查动词性替代。A抱怨妈妈说话不算数；B用了一个语气词well 说明她成认自己曾经许诺过这事。“so+主语+助动词”表示说话人认同对方的看 法，该结构中的主语指的就是前一句话中的主语，根据前一句的promised可知 助动词应使用过去式did,故答案为D。“so+助动词+主语”结构表示“也是 这样”，该结构中的主语与前一句的主语指代不同的对象，故不选A。38、B解析本句大意为：遇到紧急情况不要慌乱。lose ones way表示“迷路”； lose ones head表示“慌舌L,惊慌失措”，与词组lose one，s mind（失去理智）近义， 与keep
36、ones head（保持镇静，不慌张）意义正好相反;lose heart意为“灰心，泄 气”；lose ones heart to意为倾心于（某人），十分喜爱（某物）”；因此根据题意， 应选B。39、D40、B解析该题是词汇题，考查词形相近的形容词的意义和用法。题干中划线局部短语be good at的意思是“擅长做某事二选项A中的 sufficient 意思是“足够的，充分的“，如：The pension is not sufficient for living expenses.这些年金不够应付生活费用。选项B中的proficient意思是“熟练的”， 如：be proficient at
37、Chinese精通汉语。选项C中的efficient意思是“效率高的”， 如：efficient methods高效的方法。选项D中的inefficient是efficient的反义词， 意思是“效率低的”。因此，选项B为最正确答案。41、B考点考查虚拟语气。PART IV CLOZE42、解析空白处缺谓语动词，需要一个动词原形，而且之后要能接带to的不 定式结构。claim to do sth. “声称做某事”符合句意。这里不是正式的“宣布”， 不能填declareo43、解析空白处缺形容词或分词，作表语。上文提到作者被分配到一项写作 任务，要在欧洲旅游三个月，但他不熟悉欧洲。由此可知，本句
38、说的是他外语方 面的欠缺。be limited to为固定搭配，表示“局限于”，符合句子语境。44、 解析unable to和unfamiliar with属于并列结构，据此可以断定空白处缺 表示程度的副词，用来修饰形容词unfamiliar,词库中副词totally符合句意。45、解析空白处应填入名词，作介词with的宾语。上文提到作者不熟悉当地 的地理环境和交通系统，还要去采访和做研究，这显得impossible,可见此处填 入一个含消极意义的词汇，名词库regret “遗憾”符合句意。46、解析空格所在句说：“在我的行程结束时，我已经是一个老练的旅行者了 J 再结合上一句“经历过一些难熬
39、的时刻”可知，这两句在语义逻辑上存在转折关系而不是顺承关系，因此选buto47、解析填入空格处的词与have一起构成句子的谓语局部，因此空格处应填 入动词的过去分词形式。上一句提到，作者已成为一名experienced traveler,由 此推知此处说的是会毫不犹豫地只身前往，词库中hesitated符合句子语境。48、解析首先判定空白处需要一个形容词来修饰名词bookings,再根据句意, 尤其是bookings “预订” 一词，可以锁定要填入的词是advanced 提前的”。49、解析空白处缺形容词、分词或名词，作表语。根据后一句中的转折词But 及try something, you
40、learn可知，这一句说的是人们通常所持的、不那么好的观 点，因此选scary “吓人的”。注意句中短语by definition意为“显然地”。50、解析空格处应填入一个第三人称单数的谓语动词。“你的面前就会翻开一 片新天地”的条件就是学习要日积月累、阅历丰富，词库中piles up符合语义和 语法要求。51、解析空白处缺一个名词，作介词for的宾语。由最后一句“相信我能够创 造奇迹”，可以判定此处要填入含积极意义的名词，与anxiety相对，challenge 符合句意，填入表示“把焦虑看作是挑战的代名词”。PART V READING COMPREHENSION52、B解析细节题。文章第
41、二段第一句提到，在国际捕鲸委员会的年度大会上， 支持与反对捕鲸的国家围绕原住民小团体每年少量捕鲸的权利展开了激烈的争 论，所以选Bo A “处理对鲸鱼新威胁的紧迫性”在第一段中有所提及，但这是 环保人士于周二呼吁各国所做的事情，故不符合；C “捕鱼业管理不善”和D “在 北极勘探石油”在第二段最后一句中有所提及，但这是世界自然基金会呼吁各国 改进的地方，并非会议争论的问题，因此均可排除。Passage One参考译文气候变化已经开始影响以前难以抵达的北极区域，工业开展向新的区域进 军，基于此，环保人士于周二呼吁各国紧急处理对鲸鱼、海豚和其他鲸类动物的 新威胁。在国际捕鲸委员会的年度大会上，支持
42、与反对捕鲸的国家围绕原住民小团 体每年少量捕鲸的权利展开了激烈的争论，与此同时，世界自然基金会呼吁各国 更好地规范捕鱼业，并阻止石油、天然气行业灭绝鱼种群。“虽然每年只有几千头鲸鱼死于捕杀，但却有30万头鲸鱼、海豚和其他 鲸类动物死于捕鱼设备。如今，更大的威胁来自于石油和天然气工业。到目前为 止鲸类动物还是幸运的，因为北极的大局部地区尚无法进入，但是随着气候变化 活跃起来，新的地区将逐渐开发。这些是留给鲸鱼和鲸类动物最重要的区域J 世界自然基金会代表团团长温迪埃利奥特在巴拿马会议上说道。“国际捕鲸委员会对这些问题进行处理是很有必要的。但是像挪威、冰岛 和日本等捕鲸国家却拒绝成认国际捕鲸委员会的
43、保护组织，并且拒绝参加会议J 壳牌公司计划最早将于本月在阿拉斯加附近波佛特海和楚科奇海开始钻 井作业，其他石油公司也正计划在俄罗斯远东建立离岸钻井平台，这些地方就在 极度濒危的西方灰鲸摄食区附近。预计仅有26头雌鲸处于繁殖期，库页岛附近 的石油富集区是它们唯一能教幼崽捕食的地方，埃利奥特说。“这会成为大规模 石油开采行动即将开始的标志。”她补充道。经常饱受各种争议困扰的国际捕鲸委员会，还是给予了一些团体五年许可 证，这些团体有着根深蒂固的以捕鲸为生的传统。今年，包括圣文森特和格林纳 丁斯在内的几个加勒比国家，以及美国、俄罗斯和丹麦都在请求委员会批准其年 度捕鲸配额的延期。大多数反捕鲸人士不会试
44、图阻止小规模的原住民捕鲸，因为 这并不会威胁到更大的鲸鱼种群。虽然政府争辩说使用鲸鱼和海豚有助于维持国 家食品平安、保护文化和可持续生计，但是其中一些却被环保人士视为恶意掩饰 的商业捕鲸行为。在日本的带着下，支持捕鲸的国家于周一否决了一项以拉丁美洲国家为首 提出的在南大西洋设立鲸鱼禁猎区的提案。与此同时，阿根廷、巴西、南非和乌 拉圭提议将南大西洋作为鲸鱼禁猎区，但是由于当地捕鲸行为早已消失，该提议 基本上是象征性的。有38个国家投票支持该提案，21个国家弃权。根据委员会的规定，提案 需有75%的成员国“一致”支持才能通过。Passage Two参考译文为了使商业和休闲捕鱼业在未来几十年仍能持续
45、开展，美国在今年成为世 界上首个对所有纳入渔业管理的物种一一北至阿拉斯加的蟾鱼，南至加勒比海的 后海螺一一施以捕捞限制的国家。虽然这一政策并未引起美国渔业监管机构以外 的广泛关注，但它仍标志着美国在贯彻整个国家历史的自我诠释中又一个重要的 转折点。“该捕捞限制计划保护联邦渔业管辖的528种鱼类。不同于最近以党派划分 立场的环境政策辩论，这一政策最初由布什总统发起，随后又得到奥巴马总统的 支持，并最终得以敲定。”这可以说是开创了世纪之先河，”美国国家海洋于大气 管理局(NOAA)负责渔业的助理局长艾里克施瓦布这样说道，“这是整个国家取 得的巨大成果五年前，布什总统签署了自20世纪70年代中期以来
46、一直掌管美国所有水 域渔业活动的麦格努森一史蒂文森的重新授权。两党组成的立法者同盟联合 环境组织、渔业各利益方和科学家，在法案中写入相关文字，要求所有渔业部门 在2011年底前为停止过度捕捞设定年度捕捞限制。虽然NOAA在法案规定的最后期限12月31日前未能完成所有限捕规定的 制定，但覆盖所有联邦管理物种的46项渔业管理计划目前已经完成了 40项。 NOAA的官员表示，他们对在2012年捕鱼季开始前完成所有鱼类的限捕计划充 满信心(具体时间表根据捕鱼季开始时间不同而不同，局部鱼类捕捞季将于5月1 日或更晚时间开始)。有些鱼类，例如海豚鱼和大西洋东南部的有奖渔猎比赛用 鱼刺酶等，将首次设立捕捞限
47、制。根据科学家反映，在联邦政府管辖下负责制定528种鱼类捕捞规定的地方 管理委员会直至近期还经常无视科学建议，为超出可供持续捕捞数量的捕鱼行为 大开绿灯。皮尤环境组织的执行董事约书亚赖歇特说，禁止过度捕捞法案迫使渔业 管理者实行商业与体闲捕鱼者反对多年的捕捞限额。”这项简单却十分强大的条 款多年来一直想方设法逃出立法者的视野，而如今它可以说是美国渔业法实施的 最重要的鱼类保护法规，”赖歇特说。不同于很多由联邦政府官员起草和执行的法规，渔业捕捞限制是由代表各 方利益的地方管理委员会主席期间协助筹备再授权法案的詹姆斯 L 康诺顿说， “如果决定权在联邦政府，我们至少将有10年的论战J然而，目前的改
48、变也不是悄然无声获得的，很多批评者想要取消这些变化。 有些商业和休闲渔业的经营者，还有他们支持的国会议员争辩称，规那么的制定者 缺乏证明限捕数量合理性的科学依据。同时，他们还坚持认为法律描绘的宏伟目 标过于主观、强硬，其中包括一项10年内恢复所有捕捞殆尽鱼类的命令。Passage Three参考译文全球变暖造成北极冰川带不断消融，而同时南极周围的海冰面积却在扩大, 借助美国军事卫星传回的数据，这一谜团已经被破解。二十年的测量数据说明，南极周围多变的风向已导致海冰的微幅增长，这 是由于离开南极的冷风将冰块吹离了海岸线。“直到现在，这些浮冰的变化还只能依靠计算机模型来推测J英国南极 调查局的保罗霍兰德说，“通过研究直接的卫星观测数据，可以看出气候变化 的复杂性。”“北极
