}
A.individually
B.dependently
C.globally √
D.partially

(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）
A.slim
B.healthy
；
C.overweight √
D.unhealthy
解析：解析：此处需要一个与oberse“肥胖的”意思相近的形容词，并且是2014年大部分人要节食的原因，所以选择C项overweight“超重的”。

A.rich √
B.poor
C.remote
D.uncultured
￥
解析：解析：此处讲“在过去的30年，发展中国家估计患有肥胖症的成年人翻了四番，已经超过了——国家”，故此处填入一个与developing“发展中的”相对的形容词，A项rich“富裕的”符合要求。
(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）
A.accelerating
B.benefiting
C.affecting √
D.increasing
解析：解析：本段最后一句提到The problems．．．are now global，这里的The problems指的是“跟过度食用肥肉相关的问题”，这说明肥胖问题已经是全球化的。由此可推断肥胖也势必影响全球经济，故选C项affecting“影响”。
(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）
"
A.passed
B.caused √
C.dropped
D.stood
解析：解析：此处的The problems指代的是obesity“肥胖症”。而空格后意为“过度食用肥肉”，过度食用肥肉会导致肥胖。故选B项caused“引发”，caused by表示“由……引起的”。

A.salts
B.vegetables
）
C.peppers
D.sugars √
解析：解析：此空与fats并列，且与肥胖相关，根据fats跟肥胖的关系，可知D项sugars“糖”符合要求，因为过量食糖也会导致肥胖。

B.linked √
https://www.doczj.com/doc/575285698.html,ed
D.supposed
）
解析：解析：此处主语为The rise“肥胖症人数的增长”。空格后为“饮食习惯的传播”。肥胖症是由饮食引起的，而世界各地饮食习惯传播正是导致肥胖人数增长的一个原因，故选B项，be linked to意为“与……相关”。

A.prices
B.outcomes
C.incomes √
D.consumers
解析：解析：rising——与advertising和globalisation并列，一起解释造成肥胖症人数增长的原因。文章首段提及“2014年世界上大多数人都要节食”，“2008年约有三分之一的成年过于肥胖”，这说明从整体而言人们吃得好了，生活水平提高了。故选C项incomes“收入”。
(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）
）
A.voluntary
B.effective
C.positive
D.unwilling √

(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）
A.gap √
B.mistake
`
C.blank
D.stick
解析：解析：空格后提及了“政府推荐人们吃的”和“人们实际上吃的”。“政府推荐的”应该是健康的，而现实中很多人患有肥胖症，说明人们吃的很不健康。故推断“政府推荐吃的”和“人们实际吃的”之间差别很大，所以选A项gap“差距”。
(11).【C11】（分数：2.00）
A.sugar
B.nutrition √
C.protein
D.salt
、
解析：解析：此处需要一个词来修饰campaign，而这个运动的倡导者是政府，本文的主题是肥胖症。再联系空格前的what government recommend people to eat，既然是政府推荐人们吃的，应该是营养均衡且不易使人发胖的，所以此处应该选择B项nutrition“营养”。
(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）
A.deny
B.avoid
C.acknowledge √
D.neglect
解析：解析：空格前为governments“政府”，空格后面为the scale of the problem“问题的严重性”，后半句提及“开始实施一些具体措施来解决这个问题”。解决问题前应先承认问题的严重性。故选C项acknowledge“承认”。

!
https://www.doczj.com/doc/575285698.html,der
B.slower
C.weaker

解析：解析：上文提及问题的严重性，而此处需要填入一个词来修饰steps to tackle it。由于问题严重，所以采取的措施应该比较强硬，故选D项stronger“更强硬的，更有力的”。
(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）
A.managed √
B.planned
。
C.decided
D.intended
解析：解析：空格前的to go against the gram意为“走相反的方向，背道而驰”。上一段开头提及“大多数国家的政策制定者因为拖延……处理这个问题而备受谴责”。而此处提到“有些国家走相反的方向”，说明这些国家对于肥胖问题的态度是积极的。且下文韩国的例子也说明这些国家成功做到了，故选A项managed“设法做到”。
(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）
A.damage
B.improve √
C.decrease
D.consume
%
解析：解析：上一段的开头提及“大多数国家的政策制定者因为拖延……处理这个问题而备受谴责”。而此处提到“有些国家走相反方向”，说明这些国家对于肥胖问题的态度是积极的，故选B项improve“改善”改善饮食。
(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）
A.pickle
B.supper
C.fruit √
D.fat
解析：解析：上一段提及“很多国家的政策制定者因为在处理肥胖问题上很慢以及……而受谴责”。有些国家(比如韩国)走相反道路，故推断韩国的饮食是健康的，C项fruit“水果”属于健康食品，符合要求。
(17).【C17】（分数：2.00）
;
A.shows
B.attributes √
C.contributes
D.gives
解析：解析：空格后的this指“这些走相反方向的国家迅速采取行动处理肥胖问题”。紧接下来的government health drives“政府推广健康饮食的行动”明显是水果食用量增多(即饮食更健康)的原因，故选B项，attribute sth．to sth．意为“把……归功于……”。

A.training √
B.insurance
】
C.prevention
D.volunteering

A.dispose
B.review
C.prepare √
D.ignore
@
解析：解析：要解决国家范围内的肥胖问题，行之有效的办法是大家吃低脂餐，而要吃低脂餐必须先学会做。故选C项prepare“准备，做”。
(20).【C20】（分数：2.00）
A.demand
B.propose
C.intervene
D.act √
解析：解析：which引导的非限制性定语从句解释说明前面的“政府推广健康饮食的行动”，可推断这些项目都是政府的所作所为，故选D项act“行动”，与前面的programs“政府项目”相呼应。
It's easy to scare people about what's in their food, but the danger is almost never real. And the【C1】______itself kills. Take the panic【C2】______genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. Ninety percent of all corn grown in America is genetically modified now. That means it grew from a seed that scientists【C3】______by playing with its genes. The new genes may make corn grow faster, or they may make it less【C4】______to bugs so farmers can use 【C5】______pest-killing chemicals. This【C6】______some people. GMOs are "unnatural," they say. A【C7】
______from the movie "Seeds of Death" warns that eating GMOs "causes multiple organ system【C8】______."
Michael Hansen of Consumer Reports sounds almost as【C9】______when he talks about GMOs. He says, "You can't control【C10】______you're inserting that genetic information; it can have different effects【C11】______on the location." Jon Entine of Genetic Literacy Project responds: "We've eaten about 7 trillion meals in the 18 years
【C12】______GMOs first came on the market. There's not one documented instance of someone getting so
【C13】______as a cough." Given all the fear from【C14】______and activists, you might be surprised to learn that most serious scientists【C15】______with him. "There have been about 2,000 studies," says Entine, and "there is no 【C16】______of human harm in a major peer-reviewed journal." That might be enough to reassure people if they knew how widespread and familiar GMOs really are—but【C17】______they think of GMOs as something strange and new, they think more tests are needed. 【C18】______people don't worry about crops bred in【C19】
______varieties for centuries without farmers having any idea exactly what genetic changes【C20】______.（分数：40.00）
~
(1).【C1】（分数：2.00）
A.consumption
B.mood
C.offense
D.fear √
解析：解析：第1段提及scare，danger，kills等词语，推断讨论的话题应该是负面的。第2段开头部分提及panic“恐慌”。D项fear与scare和panic都为近义词，实现了词语同义复现，符合上下文逻辑，故答案选D。
(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）
A.on
}
B.over √
C.from
D.off
解析：解析：第2段提到“转基因食品”的好处，而第3段第2句则讲有些人担忧，认为“转基因食品不是天然的”，由此可推测第2段是对第1段的举例，take在这里应为“以……为例”的意思，此处意为“以人们对转基因的恐惧为例”。panic over．．．表示“对……的恐惧”，因此选B项over。
(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）
A.invested
B.defined
C.altered √
？
D.monitored
解析：解析：根据常识，科学家通过“捣鼓基因”能改变作物的种子，因此选C项altered“改变”。
(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）
A.abundant
B.addicted
C.artificial
D.appetizing √
解析：解析：此处填入形容词，说明改良玉米和bugs“害虫”之间的关系，此处应该表示积极色彩，即表示“不招惹害虫”，D项appetizing“开胃的，刺激食欲的”，跟less相连，符合语义。
\
(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）
A.fewer √
B.more
C.better
D.further
解析：解析：空格前提到，改良后的基因能使玉米不那么招惹害虫，从而推断农场可以减少使用杀虫剂，因此选A项fewer。
(6).【C6】（分数：2.00）
A.interrupts
!
B.upsets √
C.accuses
D.shocks
解析：解析：空格前的This指代上一段所述内容，即转基因农作物种种“非自然的”优势，而本段的unnatural“非天然的”、warns“警告”、causes“引起……问题”则说明了人们对转基因食品的疑虑，故填入的词应含负面义，因此B项upsets“使……不安，心烦”符合上下文语义逻辑。
(7).【C7】（分数：2.00）
A.subject
B.scene √
C.series
^
D.segment
解析：解析：空格需填的词应是warns的主语，且与movie有关。因此B项scene“场景”符合要求，代入后表示“电影场景警示着人们……”。
(8).【C8】（分数：2.00）
https://www.doczj.com/doc/575285698.html,ck
B.absence
C.failure √
D.fault
解析：解析：空格填入名词，作causes的宾语，即“导致多种器官的……”，四个选项均是负面的结果，但只有C项failure可表示“衰退”，能与器官搭配使用，因此选C。
.
(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）
A.frightening √
B.detecting
C.disputing
D.revealing
解析：解析：空格前的almost as…“和……几乎一样”表明本段是顺承上文语义，继续讲述对转基因食品的疑虑，且Mizhael的引言中也含表否定意义的can't control，据此可推测Michael也认为转基因食品会带来坏处。根据上下文同义复现的scare，fear，panic，upsets等词，可知正确答案应是它们的同类词A项frightening。
(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）
A.how
;
B.that
C.where √
D.what
解析：解析：空格后应为control的宾语从句，该从句的成分完整，因此推断空格处需要填入疑问副词，段落最末的词语是location，因此C项where符合上下文逻辑。
(11).【C11】（分数：2.00）
A.lying
B.insisting
C.carrying
$
D.depending √
解析：解析：此处需填入的动词与后边的介词on构成固定搭配。根据空格前的意思different effects．可以大致推理出本句的完整意思是：不同的插入位置，就会有不同的后果。故选择D项，depend on意为“依赖，依靠”。
(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）
A.since √
B.as
C.after
D.when
解析：解析：本句主句的时态为现在完成时('ve eaten)，其时间状语通常为“since+过去时间”，故选择A项since。
]
(13).【C13】（分数：2.00）
A.badly
B.much √
C.deadly
D.little
解析：解析：根据上下文逻辑，此句大意是“没有书面记录显示有人因此而患病，哪怕是一声咳嗽的情况都没有”。not so much as表示“甚至于没有，甚至不”，符合句意，故选择B项much。
(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）
A.media √
&
B.mission
C.manner
D.promotion
解析：解析：空格与activists并列，由此可以知道填入的词语义上应与activists“活跃分子”对应，而activists指上文所提到的对转基因食品感到害怕的那些人，四个选项中，语义上与此对应的只有A项media“媒体”，且正好能指代第3段提到的movie这样的媒体。
(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）
A.interfere
https://www.doczj.com/doc/575285698.html,ply
C.agree √
*
D.involve
解析：解析：空格处所填的动词应与with一起搭配，him指代上段的Jon Entine，而他是支持转基因食品的。而由下旬的no…of human harm“对人类没有伤害”可知，本段仍在讲述对转基因食品的支持，所以上下文的逻辑是同向的，可以推断大多数科学家是"同意"Jon的观点的，故选C项agree。
(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）
A.vision
B.exception
C.release
D.evidence √
解析：解析：上句提到了serious scientists，对于科学家来说，都会重视evidence，这与上一段的引文里提及的documented instance“书面例证”相呼应，故选择D项evidence。
(17).【C17】（分数：2.00）
A.as long as √
B.even if
C.unless
D.in case
解析：解析：由选项可知，本题应填入从句引导词。前半句“把转基因看成是奇怪的新鲜事物”是后半句“人们会觉得需要在这方面做更多的试验”的假设条件。因此空格处应填一个表示假设的条件状语从句引导词，A项as long as“如果，一旦”符合要求。
(18).【C18】（分数：2.00）
A.Yet √
B.Still
C.Consequently
D.So
解析：解析：本段首句提到，“如果人们能认识到转基因产品相当普遍而且在生活中早已为人们所熟知，这个说法会足以让人安心”。而本句却说，农场主不知道基因变化，人们也不担心，这两句话是对比转折关系，故选A项Yet。
(19).【C19】（分数：2.00）
A.identical
B.random √
C.adequate
D.scarce
解析：解析：本句的大概意思是：人们却并没有去担心那些用——品种培育出来的玉米和农作物。从逻辑上来说，人们该担心的是那些用“随机的”品种培育出来的作物。所以选B项random“随机的”。
(20).【C20】（分数：2.00）
A.reserved
B.generated
C.witnessed
D.occurred √
解析：解析：结合前面分析，知道本段首句跟最后一句是对照的，因此they knew how-widespread and familiar GMOs really are与without farmers having any idea exactly what genetic changes在意思上也是相对的，故GMOs 应与what genetic changes意思相近。GMOs是基因发生了改变的作物，故此处也表示基因“发生”了变化，应选D项occurred“发生”。
The human nose is an underrated tool.Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals,1 this is largely because,2 animals,we stand upright.This means that our noses are 3 to perceiving those smells which float through the air,4 the majority of smells which stick to surfaces.In fact5,we are extremely sensitive to smells,6 we do not generally realize it.Our noses are capable of 7 human smells even when these are 8 to far below one part in one million. Strangely,some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another,9 others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers.This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate 10 smell receptors in the nose.These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send 11 to the brain.However,it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell 12 can suddenly become sensitive to it when 13 to it often enough. The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that brain finds it 14 to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can 15 new receptors if necessary.This may 16 explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells we simply do not need to be.We are not 17 of the usual smell of our own house but we 18 new smells when we visit someone else's.The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors 19 for unfamiliar and emergency signals 20 the smell of smoke,which might indicate the danger of fire. 1.[A]although [B]as [C]but [D]while 2.[A]above [B]unlike [C]excluding [D]besides 3.[A]limited [B]committed [C]dedicated [D]confined 4.[A]catching [B]ignoring [C]missing [D]tracking 5.[A]anyway [B]though [C]instead [D]therefore 6.[A]even if [B]if only [C]only if [D]as if 7.[A]distinguishing [B]discovering [C]determining [D]detecting 8.[A]diluted [B]dissolved [C]determining [D]diffused 9.[A]when [B]since [C]for [D]whereas 10.[A]unusual [B]particular [C]unique [D]typical 11.[A]signs [B]stimuli [C]messages [D]impulses 12.[A]at first [B]at all [C]at large [D]at times 13.[A]subjected [B]left [C]drawn [D]exposed 14.[A]ineffective [B]incompetent [C]inefficient [D]insufficient 15.[A]introduce [B]summon [C]trigger [D]create 16.[A]still [B]also [C]otherwise [D]nevertheless 17.[A]sure [B]sick [C]aware [D]tired 18.[A]tolerate [B]repel [C]neglect [D]notice 19.[A]available [B]reliable [C]identifiable [D]suitable 20.[A]similar to [B]such as [C]along with [D]aside from

Passage One However important we may regard school life to be, there is no denying (否认) the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom. Therefore, the great influence of parents cannot be ignored by the teacher. They can become strong help to the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously go against the learning aims. Administrators have been aware of the need to keep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools. Many principals have conducted lectures explaining such matter as the reading readiness program, manuscript writing and developmental mathematics. Moreover, the classroom teacher, with the permission of the supervisors, can also play an important role in enlightening parents. The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year, as well as new ways of reporting pupil′s progress, can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home. To illustrate, suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly inter If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics, and at the same time, enjoying the work. Too often, however, teachers′ conferences with parents are devoted to pretty accounts of children′s misbehaviors, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestion for punishment and rewards at home. What is needed is more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional adviser, plants ideas in parents′ minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom. In this way, the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngst ers′ capacities. (355) 1.The central idea expressed in the above passage is that ［A］home training is more important than school training because a child spends so many hours with his parents. ［B］teachers can and should help parents to understand and further the aims of the school. ［C］there are many ways in which the mathematics program can be implemented at home. ［D］parents unconsciously have gone against the teaching aims. 2.The author directly discusses the fact that ［A］parents drill their children too much in arithmetic. ［B］principals have explained the new art programs to parents. ［C］ a father can have his son help him construct articles at home. ［D］a parent′s misguided efforts can be properly directed. 3.It can reasonably be inferred that the author ［A］is satisfied with present relationships between home and school. ［B］feels that the traditional program in mathematics is slightly superior to the developmental program. ［C］ ［D］is of the opinion that teachers of this generation are inferior to those of the last generation. 4.The author implies that ［A］participation in interesting activities relating to a subject improves one′s achievement in that area.［B］too many children are lazy and have poor work habits. ［C］school principals do more than their share in interpreting the curriculum to the parents. ［D］teachers should occasionally make home visits to parents. 5.We may infer that the writer of the article does favor ［A］a father′s helping his son with the latter′s studies.

That is the【B6】______of Roger Unger and Philip Scherer. Dr. Unger and Dr. Scherer have been reviewing the science of what has come to be known as metabolic syndrome.

Their thesis is that lipids(the group of molecules that includes fats), which are needed in small amounts to make cell membranes, are toxic in larger quantities.【B20】 ______them into adipose tissue is one of the body's ways of dealing with that toxicity. 1 【B1】 （A）In （B）At
