2、ore efficiency更多效率 D. than efficiency比效率【考查点】并列。【解题思路】less emphasis on pressure是名词短语，表示“强调少的压力”，with后面只能跟名词或名词短语，所以空格处不可能是比较级，而是并列名词短语，前面是emphasis on，空格部分同样要表示emphasis on，介词on不可以省略，所以空格处是and more on efficiency，故该题选择B项正确。【干扰项排除】A、C、D项不符合语法结构。【句意】有些公司采用弹性工作时间制，更注重效率而不是压力。2. 单选题Qwest boasts that its di

4、美国国会图书馆的信息传送到全国各地”可知，能够传送信息，那么句中digital infrastructure应该指“数字设备”的意思，facility指可供使用的设备或设施，C项词义与之相近，故该题选择C项。【干扰项排除】A、D项不符合划线单词词义；B项instrument通常指能使人们完成某一精确动作或测量的一种小型仪器，尤指电工仪表、测量装置，航海或航空用的控制装置。【句意】奎斯特通讯公司自夸其数字基础设施可以在20秒内将整个美国国会图书馆的信息传送到全国各地。3. 单选题Children and old people do not like having their daily _ up

6、tually come a day when The New York Times ceases to publish stories on newsprint. Exactly when that day will be is a matter of debate. “Sometime in the future,” the papers publisher said back in 2010.Nostalgia for ink on paper and the rustle of pages aside, theres plenty of incentive to ditch print.

7、 The infrastructure required to make a physical newspaperprinting presses, delivery trucksisnt just expensive; its excessive at a time when online-only competitors dont have the same set of financial constraints. Readers are migrating away from print anyway. And though print ad sales still dwarf the

9、f they go about doing it the right way. “Figuring out a way to accelerate that transition would make sense for them,” he said, “but if you discontinue it, youre going to have your most loyal customers really upset with you.”Sometimes thats worth making a change anyway. Peretti gives the example of N

10、etflix discontinuing its DVD-mailing service to focus on streaming. “It was seen as a blunder,” he said. The move turned out to be foresighted. And if Peretti were in charge at the Times? “I wouldnt pick a year to end print,” he said. “I would raise prices and make it into more of a legacy product.”

11、The most loyal customers would still get the product they favor, the idea goes, and theyd feel like they were helping sustain the quality of something they believe in. “So if youre overpaying for print, you could feel like you were helping,” Peretti said. “Then increase it at a higher rate each year

12、 and essentially try to generate additional revenue.” In other words, if youre going to make a print product, make it for the people who are already obsessed with it. Which may be what the Times is doing already. Getting the print edition seven days a week costs nearly $500 a yearmore than twice as

13、much as a digital-only subscription.“Its a really hard thing to do and its a tremendous luxury that BuzzFeed doesnt have a legacy business,” Peretti remarked. “But were going to have questions like that where we have things were doing that dont make sense when the market changes and the world change

18、:B第4题:C第5题:D【解析】1.【选项释义】1. The New York Times is considering ending its print edition partly due to _. 1. 纽约时报正考虑终止印刷版，部分原因是_。A. the increasing online and sales A. 在线版和销量的增长B. the pressure from its investors B. 来自投资者的压力C. the complaints from its readers C. 读者的抱怨D. the high cost of operation D. 印刷成本高

19、【考查点】细节事实题。【解题思路】首先定位首段首句“终有一天，纽约时报会停止在报纸上发表文章”可知，这是题干的同义表达，然后第二段第二句解释了其具体原因“制造纸质报纸所需要的基础设施印刷机、送货卡车不仅昂贵；而且一个只提供在线服务的竞争对手却没有这样的经济上的限制，这是过分的”，从中可知，纽约时报正考虑终止印刷版，部分原因是因为印刷成本昂贵，D项“印刷成本高”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“在线版和销量的增长”、B项“来自投资者的压力”、C项“读者的抱怨”没有提到，这三项属于无中生有。2.【选项释义】2. Peretti suggests that in face of the present

20、situation, The Times should _. 2. 佩雷蒂建议，面对目前的情况，纽约时报应该_。A. make strategic adjustments A. 进行战略调整B. end the print sedition for good B. 永远停止印刷煽动C. seek new sources of leadership C. 寻找新的领导资源D. aim for efficient management D. 追求高效率的管理【考查点】细节事实题。【解题思路】根据关键词Peretti定位至第四段第一句“佩雷蒂说，纽约时报不应该浪费时间退出印刷版业务，但必须采取正确的

21、方式”，理解可知，佩雷蒂建议纽约时报应该找到一种正确的方法来解决这件事情，所以A项“进行战略调整”符合题意。【干扰项排除】B项“永远停止印刷煽动”，原文提到佩雷蒂认为不应该浪费时间退出印刷版业务，所以该项属于反向干扰；C项“寻找新的领导资源”和D项“追求高效率的管理”没有提到，这两项属于无中生有。3.【选项释义】3. It can be inferred from paragraphs 5and 6 that a” legacy product” _. 3. 从第5段和第6段可以推断“传统产品”_。A. helps restore the glory of former times A. 帮助

22、恢复昔日的荣耀B. is meant for the most loyal customers B. 是针对最忠实的客户C. will have the cost of printing reduced C. 印刷成本会降低D. expands the popularity of the paper D. 扩大报纸的受欢迎程度【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】首先定位第五段最后一句“我不会选择一年结束印刷业，我会提高价格，让它更像一款传统产品”可以看出，佩雷蒂认为不仅要提高传统产品的价格，还要将它变为一种可以传承的产物，接着第六段开头提到“最忠实的客户仍然会得到他们喜欢的产品，他们会觉得他们在

23、帮助维持他们所相信的东西的质量”，然后提到如果每年增加一些比例，依旧可以创收，紧接着提到“如果你要做一个印刷产品，那就为那些已经对它着迷的人做吧”，综合理解可知，对于最忠实的客户来说，如果把传统产品进行改造，那么对于他们来说这就是一件可以传承的东西，由此推断，“传统产品”是针对最忠实的客户，该题选择B项“是针对最忠实的客户”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“帮助恢复昔日的荣耀”和C项“印刷成本会降低”没有提到，该项属于无中生有；D项“扩大报纸的受欢迎程度”，“传统产品”针对的是忠实的客户，让这个产品变成可以传承的东西，并没有扩大受欢迎程度，该项属于曲解原文。4.【选项释义】4. Peretti b

24、elieves that in a changing world _. 4. 佩雷蒂认为，在一个不断变化的世界，_。A. traditional luxuries can stay unaffected A. 传统奢侈品不会受到影响B. cautiousness facilitates problem-solving B. 谨慎有助于解决问题C. aggressiveness better meets challenges C. 积极进取能更好地迎接挑战D. legacy businesses are becoming out dated D. 传统企业正在变得过时【考查点】细节事实题。【解题

25、思路】根据原文末段最后两句“但我们会有这样的问题，当市场和世界变化时，我们正在做的事情没有意义。在这种情况下，积极进取总比不那么积极进取要好（its better to be more aggressive than less aggressive）。”可知，佩雷蒂认为，在一个不断变化的世界，to be more aggressive（积极进取）才更好处理世界变化带来的挑战，C项“积极进取能更好地迎接挑战”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“传统奢侈品不会受到影响”表述过于绝对，该项属于曲解原文；B项“谨慎有助于解决问题”在佩雷蒂的观点中没有体现，相反他建议要有所改变，并且要采取正确的方式，该项属于

26、反向干扰；D项“传统企业正在变得过时”中的legacy businesses（传统企业）没有在文中讨论，该项属于无中生有。5.【选项释义】5. Which of the following would be the best title of the text? 5. 下面哪个选项是这篇文章最好的标题？A. Shift to Online Newspapers all at Once. A. 同时转向在线报纸。B. Cherish the Newspapers Still in Your Hand. B. 珍惜手中的报纸。C. Keep Your Newspapers Forever in F

27、ashion. C. 让你的报纸永远时尚。D. Make Your Print Newspapers a Luxury Good. D. 让你的纸质报纸成为奢侈品。【考查点】主旨大意题。【解题思路】首先定位文章首段首句“终有一天，纽约时报会停止在报纸上发表文章”，可知本文讨论的内容是纸质印刷，然后第二段解释了抛弃纸质印刷的理由，接着中间四段介绍了佩雷蒂对纽约时报所面临的挑战进行的战略调整，即让纸质报纸成为legacy products（传统产品），之后，最后一段用佩雷蒂的话总结了当世界变化时，人们应该积极进取的迎接挑战；综上所述可知，这篇文章围绕的中心词就是print newspaper（纸质

28、报纸），所以D项“让你的纸质报纸成为奢侈品”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“同时转向在线报纸”中的online newspaper只是文中提到的一个面临的挑战，不足以引领全文，该项属于以偏概全；B项“珍惜手中的报纸”和C项“让你的报纸永远时尚”中的newspaper范围过大，本文的关键词是print newspaper（纸质报纸），这两项属于曲解原文。5. 不定项选择题One gray dawn, he was kicked in the leg by another soldier, and then, before he was entirely awake, he found himsel

29、f running down a wood road in the midst of men who were panting from the first effects of speed. His canteen banged rhythmically upon his thigh, and his haversack bobbed softly.

44、reason D. 毫无理由的移动【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】首先定位至第一段的内容“在一个灰蒙蒙的黎明（gray dawn），他的腿被另一个士兵踢了一脚，在他完全清醒之前，他发现自己在一条林间小路上跑着，周围的人都因为速度的影响而喘不过气来。他的水壶有节奏地（rhythmically）拍打着他的大腿，他的帆布背包轻轻地（softly）摆动着。每迈一步，他的火枪就会从肩膀上弹开一点，他的帽子都戴不稳了”，从中可知，该段描述了一个生动的画面，其中用到了gray dawn（灰蒙蒙的黎明），rhythmically（有节奏地），softly（轻轻地）这样的词语，给人一种柔和的感觉，所以C项“柔

45、和过渡”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“训练有素”和B项“ 装备精良”不能从该段看出来，这两项属于无中生有；D项“毫无理由的移动”，该段提到“士兵”和“火枪”，可以推断出他们是在进行军事行动，该项与原文相反，属于反向干扰。2.【选项释义】2. The word “faculties” in Paragraph 3 most nearly means _. 2. 第3段中的“faculties”的意思是_。A. patience A. 耐心B. senses B. 感觉官能C. equipment C. 装备D. colleagues D. 同事【考查点】词义推测题。【解题思路】根据关键词facu

46、lties定位至第三段第三句“他似乎需要他所有的faculties来引导他越过障碍”，结合上一句“当他和战友们一起奔跑时，他努力地想，但他只知道，如果他跌倒了，后面的人会踩到他”综合理解可知，如果他被障碍物绊倒，后面的士兵就会踩到，所以他需要运用自己所有的感觉官能确保自己能成功越过障碍，所以faculties在这里指的是“官能”，故该题选择B项“感觉官能”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“耐心”和C项“装备”理解错误，这两项属于曲解原文；D项“同事”在文章没有提到，该项属于无中生有。3.【选项释义】3.

48、 D. 像婴儿一样易受伤害【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】首先定位至第四段倒数第二句“有那么一会儿，面对这重大的考验，他觉得自己像个婴儿，心脏的肉也显得很薄（the flesh over his heart seemed very thin）”，结合上一句“他就要被测量了（He was about to be measured）”可知，此处的情景是他正在接受军队上的审查，而the flesh over his heart seemed very thin描述的是他此刻的心情，他描述自己像个婴儿，同时用thin来表达the flesh over his heart（心脏上的肉）说明他非常紧张又

49、害怕，A项“害怕和激动”符合题意。【干扰项排除】B项“受伤但平静”和C项“有心脏病发作的危险”，the flesh over his heart（心脏上的肉）在文中是暗喻，并不是真正指人的心脏，这两项属于曲解原文；D项“像婴儿一样易受伤害”根据解题思路，该项属于曲解原文。4.【选项释义】4. The overall tone of the passage is best described as _. 4. 这篇文章的整体基调可以用_来描述。A. pessimistic A. 悲观的B. regretful B. 后悔的C. irritated C. 恼怒的D. impressionistic

50、 D. 印象派的【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】通读全文，文章主要是描述了一个军事场景，并描绘了年轻人的内心世界，其中用到了很多灰调的词语，如第五段最后一句“他在一个移动的箱子里（moving box）”，第七段第二句“他被无情的政府（merciless government）拖着走”，以及文章最后一句“他们向灌木丛和远处突出的树木射击，向他讲述了隐藏的、神秘的、庄严的悲剧（tragedies）”，从中可以看出，这篇文章整体基调都是灰色悲观的，所以A项“悲观的”符合题意。【干扰项排除】B项“后悔的”，文章只在描述这个年轻人的时候提到，该项属于以偏概全；C项“恼怒的”和D项“印象派的”没有依据

51、，这两项属于无中生有。5.【选项释义】5. In the second paragraph from the bottom, the author likens the skirmishers to busy bees, “deeply absorbed in their little combats,” in order to _. 5. 在文章下半部分的第二段中，作者将小规模战斗比作忙碌的蜜蜂，“全神贯注于他们的小战斗”，以便_。A. suggest the amount of work that must be done to carry out a battle A. 暗示完成一场战斗

52、必须完成的工作量B. draw parallels between work completed in the natural world and the work completed in the world of men B. 把自然界完成的工作和人类世界完成的工作进行比较C. create distance between the reality of the fighting and the main characters perceptions C. 在战斗的现实和主角的感知之间创造距离D. portray the youth as a keenly insightful witne

53、ss recording all of the events of a busy and chaotic battle D. 把年轻人描绘成一个富有洞察力的目击者，记录下了一场忙碌而混乱的战斗中的所有事件【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】首先定位至倒数第二段的内容“其他兵团在河岸上挣扎。这支旅排成了战斗的队形，经过一段时间的停顿，他们在后撤的小分队后面慢慢地穿过树林，这些小分队不断地在战场上消失，然后又在更远的地方出现。他们总是像蜜蜂一样忙碌，全神贯注于他们的小战斗。”可知，该段描绘了一个小规模作战的场景，作者把小分队比喻为忙碌的蜜蜂，他们在混乱中不停地改变作战场地；结合最后一段第一句“这个年

54、轻人试图观察一切”和最后一句“他们向灌木丛和远处突出的树木射击，向他讲述了隐藏的、神秘的、庄严的悲剧”综合理解可知，作者要把小规模战斗比作忙碌的蜜蜂是把年轻人描绘成了一个目击者，所以D项“把年轻人描绘成一个富有洞察力的目击者，记录下了一场忙碌而混乱的战斗中的所有事件”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“暗示完成一场战斗必须完成的工作量”、B项“把自然界完成的工作和人类世界完成的工作进行比较”和C项“在战斗的现实和主角的感知之间创造距离”根据解题思路，这三项都属于曲解原文。6. 单选题She wept in relief when the tumour turned out to be benign.

55、问题1选项A.not viciousB.dangerousC.unpleasantD.beneficent【答案】A【解析】【选项释义】A. not vicious不邪恶的；不危险的 B. dangerous危险的C. unpleasant不愉快的 D. beneficent有裨益的；行善的【考查点】形容词辨析。【解题思路】根据关键信息She wept in relief（她如释重负地哭了），结合关键词tumour（肿瘤）可推断，benign表示“良性的”，即肿瘤不是危险的，A项词义与之相近，故该题选择A项。【干扰项排除】B、C、D项不符合划线单词词义。【句意】当肿瘤被证实为良性时，她如释重负

56、地哭了。7. 单选题Simulations with large numbers of interacting agents show that they behave in ways that are often unpredictable; the properties of such systems are said to “emerge” from the behavior of the connected companies and individuals.问题1选项A.stimuliB.duplicationsC.systemsD.assumptions【答案】B【解析】【选项释义

57、】A. stimuli刺激物 B. duplications复制；复印C. systems系统 D. assumptions假定；假设【考查点】名词辨析。【解题思路】simulation的意思是“模拟”，即模仿另外一个事物，B项词义与之相近，故该题选择B项。【干扰项排除】A、C、D项不符合划线单词词义。【句意】有大量交互主体的模拟表明，它们的行为方式通常是不可预测的；这些系统的特性被认为是由相互关联的公司和个人的行为“产生”的。8. 单选题It was very difficult to find the parts needed to do the job because of the _

58、way the store was organized.问题1选项A.logicalB.haphazardC.orderlyD.tidy【答案】B【解析】【选项释义】A. logical合乎情理的；合乎常理的 B. haphazard无秩序的；无计划的C. orderly整洁的；有秩序的 D. tidy整洁的；整齐的【考查点】形容词辨析。【解题思路】根据主句的句意“很难找到做这项工作所需的零件”可知，the _ way the store was organized指的是商品摆放的方式杂乱无章，B项符合句意，故该题选择B项。【干扰项排除】A、C、D项不符合句意。【句意】因为商店摆放的方式杂乱无

59、章，很难找到做这项工作所需的零件。9. 翻译题中华民族自古以来从不把人看作高于一切，在哲学文艺方面的表现都反映出人在自然界中与万物占着一个比例较为恰当的地位，而非绝对统治万物的主宰。因为我们的苦闷，基本上比西方人为少为小：因为苦闷的强弱原是随欲望与野心的大小而转移的。【答案】Since ancient times the Chinese nationalities have never considered human beings to be superior to other species.
