    A.specific
    B.favorite
    C.excellent
    D.common

    答案：A
    解析：

  • 第16题：


    One effect of the increased use of cash was that( )

    A.an individual merchant no longer performed all aspects of trading operations
    B.a company’s home office declined in importance
    C.merchants no longer had to transport their goods to distant places
    D.the volume of trade declined in areas lacking silver mines

    答案：A
    解析：
    细节题。根据题干关键词the use of cash定位到文章第一段的第二句。该句指出现金的广泛使用大大增加了国际贸易量，而且业务流程发生了根本的变化。下文阐述了变化表现在商人角色的演变，从几乎独自处理贸易业务的各个方面到分工更加细致。A项“个体商人不再从事贸易活动的所有方面”与之相符，属于同义替换。B项“公司总部的重要性下降了”、C项“商家不再需要把货物运输到遥远的地方了”和D项“在缺乏银矿的地区，贸易量下降了”均与原文不符。

    C

    A

    oblige

    B

    reject

    C

    reside

    D

    present


    正确答案： C

    句子表示“不能接受您的要求”，可知accommodate意为“答应”。与其意思最接近的是oblige 满足；答应。故选A。

  • 第19题：

    单选题
    The underlined word “screenings”in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.
    A

    projections

    B

    revelations

    C

    demonstrations

    D

    diversions


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    screenings出现在第一段首句。文章开头首先介绍到据历史记载第一部有声电影是1927年的The jazz Singer，但有声电影并非经过数年的silent screenings之后突然出现。可推测silent screenings应该指的是无声电影。screening意为“放映，播放”，而projection也有“放映”的意思，因此答案为A项。

  • 第20题：

    The word “lucrative” in paragraph 2, line 2 of the advertisement is closest in meaning to ______ .
    A

    profitable

    B

    progressive

    C

    enjoyable

    D

    difficult


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    空格部分表示“发展最快、收益最高的行业”，因此lucrative意为“有利润的，赚钱的”，profitable与其意思最接近。故选A。

  • 第21题：

    单选题
    The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
    A

    finished

    B

    interested

    C

    cleared

    D

    polluted


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    词义推测题。文章第三段提到“a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed”，由此可知，是这些国家水被污染，因此喝配方奶粉长大的孩子比母乳喂养的孩子在出生后的前六个月更容易夭折。因此选择D选项。finish完成，结束。interest使……感兴趣。clear清除，使干净。意思均不符合。

  • 第22题：

    单选题

    A

    moderately

    B

    frequently

    C

    increasingly

    D

    liberally


    正确答案： B

  • 第23题：

    单选题
    Countries sometimes spoil their beauty spots because ______.
    A

    they are too poor to build beautiful hotels on them

    B

    they have to cut down trees to build hotels on them

    C

    they have to sell them to borrow money from foreign banks

    D

    they are lacking experience in building hotels


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    录音中提到“What they spend on building has to be borrowed produces only chains of ugly hotels wherever there are beauty spots supposed to attract tourists”，意思是：他们(指前面提到的一些贫穷的国家)需要借钱来盖旅馆，可结果却是丑陋的旅馆横亘在风景优美的景区，而这些景区本应该吸引游客前来赏景的。由此可以推断出，这些国家毁了他们的风景区只是因为他们太穷不能建造美丽的旅馆，所以A项为正确答案。

  • 第24题：

    单选题
    The word impoverished in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.
    A

    difficult

    B

    rich

    C

    famous

    D

    poor


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    词义推测题。根据文章第一段“Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman’s house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie’s mother started doing laundry in her home”可以得到，Maggie的母亲曾经是一名奴隶，她年幼丧父，家里没有钱，所以她的母亲只好给有钱人洗衣服，由此可推断impoverished应该是“贫穷的”意思，与poor意思相近。因此此题选D。
