一、Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)
Passage 1
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 (考古学家) 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 (细菌) 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 from 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 cal
1、Which language does the word “archaeology”come from?
A、French.
B、Greek.
C、Roman.
D、German.
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:“Archaeology”这个词来自于希腊语,意思是“研究旧物”。在文章中提到“Archaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek”,因此正确答案是B选项,即希腊语。
2、The word “these” in the first paragraph refers to_______.
A、letters
B、photographs
C、paintings
D、objects
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的信息,第一段提到“most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs”,然后紧接着说“but archaeologists learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago”。因此,可以推断出“these”指的是与考古学家学习对象相关的内容,即“objects”。因此,答案为D。
3、Which of the following helped to preserve“Lindow Man”?
A、Ice and low temperature.
B、Bacteria and oxygen.
C、Soil and energy.
D、Acid and water.
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据文章中的描述,Lindow Man之所以被保存得如此完好,是因为他在一个充满水的环境中,远离了需要氧气才能生存的细菌。此外,沼泽中的水是酸性的,这种酸保存了他的皮肤,就像动物皮被保存成皮革一样。因此,帮助他保存下来的主要是酸和水,所以选项D“酸和水”是正确的。选项A“冰和低温”没有在文章中提到,选项B“细菌和氧气”实际上是他被保存的原因的反面,选项C“土壤和能量”也没有在文章中提及。
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.

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 (损害) 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 (里程碑). 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 th
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.
解析:
题目:下面哪个是这篇文章的主要观点?
A:这座城市激励着人才。
B:城市伤害你的大脑。
C:这座城市有许多乐趣和好处。
D:城市严重影响了自然平衡。
7、The word “metropolis” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.
A、citizen
B、nature
C、city
D、stress
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据文章第一段中的描述,“Without the metropolis, we might not have had the great art of Shakespeare”,可以推断出“metropolis”指的是大城市或城市。因此,答案是C,即“city”。文章中提到城市对大脑的影响,以及城市生活对基本思维过程的损害,因此“metropolis”在这里指的是城市。
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
解析:
题目:人们刚刚意识到这一点。

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

根据短文,下列哪个陈述是正确的?
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Breastfeeding (母乳喂养) 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 from 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 (诊断) 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 (怀孕)) 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 sh
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:超过五分之一的女性从未结过婚。
D:埃莉诺•施瓦茨(Eleanor Schwarz)的研究结果似乎更可靠。
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.
解析:
题目:根据施瓦茨的发现,谁在晚年更容易患糖尿病?
A:那些从未母乳喂养过的母亲。
B:那些从未生过孩子的母亲。
C:母乳喂养一个月的母亲。
D:母乳喂养6个月的母亲。
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.
解析:
题目:以下哪个陈述施瓦茨会同意?
A:母乳喂养是不可取的,因为它不利于母亲保持良好的形状。
B:母乳喂养可以大大降低母亲患各种严重疾病的几率。
C:强烈建议母乳喂养一个月:时间越长越好。
D:母乳喂养一个月或更长时间会让婴儿更聪明。
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 babies for the first time.
C、Women who already have children.
D、Women who have just got babies for the first time.
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据文章最后一段的内容,作者提到“她们(moms-to-be)是处于怀孕状态,特别是第一次怀孕的女性,应该注意到她们未来可能面临2型糖尿病的风险”,因此可以推断出“moms-to-be”指的是处于怀孕状态的女性,特别是第一次怀孕的女性。因此,答案为A选项。

Religion, magic and medicine were 59 related in ancient Egypt. Some priests (牧师) were specially 60 as doctors to 61 the sick and the injured. Doctors were held to a high moral standard. Patients were treated with 62 and their 63 information was highly secret. The highest-ranking doctors were priests of the goddess Sekhmet, 64 controlled illnesses. Doctors spent a part of each year 65 the goddess. Doctors were thought to be 66 to the gods and able to ask them for healing.
Temples were centers for healing. 67 a person was ill, he or she would come to the temple or 68 a doctor for a diagnosis (诊断). A (n) 69 problem was treated with medicine, prayer and magic.

The doctor would use magic spells to 71 a cure. 72 , a diagnosis could not be reached. 73 this case, a patient would be told to rest for a period of time 74 another examination could be 75.
56、( 56 )
A、what
B、why
C、that
D、which
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题目中提到" Doctors' instructions have been found to tell us"说明我们得到了医生的指示,那么这些指示应该是告诉我们他们为病人做了什么,因此空格处应该填入"what",即选项A。选项B、C、D都与语境不符。
57、( 57 )
A、When
B、Since
C、Although
D、After
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的句子“many of the treatments included magic, ancient Egyptians used plant leaves and other methods to treat many”,可以推断出前后句之间存在因果关系,即“虽然许多治疗包括魔法,但是古埃及人仍然使用植物叶子和其他方法来治疗许多疾病”。因此,选项C“Although”表示因果关系,符合题意。选项A“When”表示时间关系,选项B“Since”也表示因果关系,但不如选项C强烈,选项D“After”表示时间顺序,都不符合题意。
58、( 58 )
A、damages
B、diseases
C、disasters
D、destructions
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在问题中,提到“ancient Egyptians used plant leaves and other methods to treat many”,意思是古埃及人使用植物叶子和其他方法来治疗很多疾病。因此,空格处应该填入与疾病相关的名词,而选项B“diseases”符合语境。其他选项如“damages”、“disasters”和“destructions”都与疾病治疗无关,因此不正确。
59、( 59 )
A、hardly
B、closely
C、mainly
D、shortly
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到,“宗教、魔法和医学在古代埃及是紧密相关的”,因此可以推断出宗教、魔法和医学在古代埃及是相互关联的,选项B“closely”意为“紧密地”,符合题意。而选项A“hardly”意为“几乎不”,选项C“mainly”意为“主要地”,选项D“shortly”意为“简短地”,都不符合文意。因此,答案为B。
60、( 60 )
A、trained
B、designed
C、planned
D、studied
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,空格(60)后面的句子提到“Some priests were specially trained as doctors to treat the sick and the injured.”,意思是“一些牧师被特别训练为医生来治疗病人和伤员。”,因此空格(60)应该填写表示“被训练”的词语。在选项中,只有“A. trained”符合这个要求,因此选择A。
61、( 61 )
A、look to
B、come to
C、care for
D、search for
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的描述,古代埃及的医生和祭司都与治疗疾病有关,因此他们需要“照顾”(care for)病人。选项C“care for”恰好符合这个语境。而选项A“a look to”表示“查看”,选项B“come to”表示“来到”,选项D“search for”表示“寻找”,都与语境不符。因此,正确答案是C。
62、( 62 )
A、reputation
B、inspection
C、fame
D、respect
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文章中提到,医生被要求遵守高道德标准,病人被以尊重的态度对待,他们的信息高度保密。因此,空格处应该填入表示尊重的名词,选项D中的“respect”符合语境。其他选项如“reputation”(声誉)、“inspection”(检查)、“fame”(名声)都不符合文章所描述的医生对待病人的态度。
63、( 63 )
A、ill
B、own
C、hidden
D、personal
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,提到了“他们的个人信息高度保密”,因此空格处应该填写与个人信息相关的词汇。选项A“ill”表示“生病的”,与个人信息无关;选项B“own”表示“自己的”,也不符合语境;选项C“hidden”表示“隐藏的”,虽然与保密有关,但不如选项D“personal”直接表示“个人的”。因此,正确答案是选项D“personal”,表示“个人的”。
64、( 64 )
A、that
B、which
C、who
D、what
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】本题是一道单选题,主要考察代词的选择。在给出的选项中,选项A“that”表示事物,选项B“which”表示某物,选项C“who”表示人,选项D“what”表示事物。根据题目中的语境,空格后面是“controlled illnesses”,表示“控制疾病”,而“控制疾病”的主体应该是人,因此应该选择表示人的代词,即选项C“who”。所以,正确答案为C。
65、( 65 )
A、serving
B、reading
C、learning
D、following
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,这里描述的是医生在一年中的一部分时间都会去祭拜女神,因此应该选择“serving”(侍奉)作为正确答案。其他选项如“reading”(阅读)、“learning”(学习)和“following”(跟随)都不符合上下文的语境。因此,答案为A。
66、( 66 )
A、careful
B、generous
C、mean
D、close
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到,医生和神的关系非常密切,医生被认为是神的代表,可以向神请求治疗。因此,医生和神的关系应该是“close”(亲密的)。选项D“close”符合文意,是正确答案。其他选项如“careful”(仔细的)、“generous”(慷慨的)、“mean”(吝啬的)都与文意不符。
67、( 67 )
A、Before
B、When
C、Until
D、Since
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,句子提到“一个人生病了,他或她会去寺庙或者找医生进行诊断”,根据常识和语境,生病的人应该“当”生病时去寺庙或者找医生,而不是“之前”、“直到”或“自从”生病。因此,正确答案是“B. When”。
68、( 68 )
A、think over
B、apply to
C、call for
D、make up
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到,如果一个人生病了,他或她会去寺庙或找医生进行诊断。因此,应该选择“call for”表示“需要,要求”的意思,即“如果一个人生病了,他或她会需要找医生进行诊断”。其他选项的意思不符合文意。因此,正确答案为C。
69、( 69 )
A、喵呜刷题
B、喵呜刷题
C、喵呜刷题
D、喵呜刷题
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,提到了“A (n) problem was treated with medicine, prayer and magic.”,意思是“一个问题(疾病)用药物、祈祷和魔法来治疗”。根据这个描述,可以推断出空格处应该填入一个名词,表示需要治疗的对象。选项A、B、C都是名词,但只有选项D“喵呜刷题”是一个合理的选项,因为它与题目中的描述不符。因此,正确答案是D。
70、( 70 )
A、treated
B、discovered
C、cured
D、aroused
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,题干中提到了“If a clear cause was not ...”,说明需要填入一个与“发现”相关的动词。选项A“treated”表示“治疗”,不符合语境;选项C“cured”表示“治愈”,与“原因”搭配不当;选项D“aroused”表示“唤起”,与题意不符。而选项B“discovered”表示“发现”,符合语境,表示如果没有明确的原因被发现,医生会进行其他的诊断和治疗。因此,正确答案是B。
71、( 71 )
A、bring about
B、set out
C、insist on
D、make up
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到,如果病因不明确,医生会使用魔法咒语来“带来”治愈,因此正确答案为“带来”,即选项A。其他选项的意思与文中描述不符。
72、( 72 )
A、Subsequently
B、Consequently
C、Occasionally
D、Hopefully
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到,如果诊断无法确定明确的病因,则认为是由邪恶的灵魂或诅咒引起的,因此需要使用魔法咒语进行治疗。因此,在这种情况下,诊断无法得出,需要使用魔法咒语进行治疗,因此选项C“Occasionally”表示“偶尔地”,符合题意。其他选项A“Subsequently”表示“随后地”,B“Consequently”表示“因此地”,D“Hopefully”表示“希望地”,均不符合题意。
73、( 73 )
A、With
B、In
C、For
D、On
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,句子“a diagnosis could not be reached.”表示无法做出诊断,因此需要一个介词来连接“无法做出诊断”和“这种情况”。选项B中的“in this case”表示“在这种情况下”,符合句意,因此是正确答案。其他选项A的“With”、C的“For”和D的“On”都不符合句意。
74、( 74 )
A、until
B、when
C、although
D、because
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在给出的段落中,描述了一个古代埃及医学的情景。其中提到,如果一个人生病了,他或她会去神庙或找医生进行诊断。如果病因明确,那么会用药、祈祷和魔法进行治疗。如果病因不明确,诊断会认为是邪恶精神或诅咒引起的,医生会使用魔法咒语进行治疗。根据这个描述,如果病因不明确,那么诊断无法立即得出,因此病人会被告知休息一段时间,等待下一次检查。因此,正确答案是“until”,表示“直到”。选项A“until”符合这个语境。选项B“when”表示“当……时候”,不符合语境;选项C“although”表示“尽管”,也不符合语境;选项D“because”表示“因为”,同样不符合语境。
75、( 75 )
A、decided
B、performed
C、carried
D、discussed
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到“a person was ill, he or she would come to the temple or a doctor for a diagnosis”,说明如果一个人生病了,他或她会去神庙或找医生进行诊断。因此,选项B“a doctor”符合文意,表示这个人会去找医生进行诊断。选项A“a temple”不符合文意,因为文中并没有提到去神庙进行诊断。选项C“a diagnosis”和选项D“a discussion”也不符合文意,因为文中并没有提到进行诊断或讨论。因此,正确答案是B。

77、His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn't done heavy manual work in his life—he could have been a rich man.
参考答案:他的手和指甲表明他这辈子没有做过繁重的体力活——他本可以成为一个富人。
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:
在这句话中,作者通过描述某人的手和指甲,暗示这个人没有做过繁重的体力活。这通常是因为做重体力活的人的手和指甲会因为长时间的劳动而显得粗糙。因此,作者推断这个人本可以成为一个富人,可能是因为他没有从事艰苦的体力劳动,从而有更多的机会和时间去追求其他的事业或投资。这是一种通过观察和推断来得出结论的方式,也展示了语言中的暗示和推断技巧。

84、这部电影我已经看过好几遍了。
参考答案:I have watched this movie several times.

85、这就是他五年前住过的房子。
参考答案:This is the house where he lived five years ago.
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这个句子是一个简单句,主语是"This is the house",谓语是"is",表语是"where he lived five years ago",其中"where he lived five years ago"是一个定语从句,修饰"house",表示"这就是他五年前住过的房子"。因此,翻译时需要将"where he lived five years ago"翻译为"他五年前住过的房子",并将整个句子调整为"This is the house where he lived five years ago."。
