答案与题解:
  词汇学习1:
  1. B account for是个动词短语,意思是“解释,说明”,和动词explain的意思相当,又如:How do you account for your absence at the meeting?(你开会缺席如何解释?)其他几个动词的意思分别是:assess评估,describe描述,investigate调查。
  2. D minute作名词用是“分钟”,这里是作形容词用,意思是“细小的,细微的”,发音和名词minute也不同。在四个选项中和slight同义。又如:There are minute differences between the two proposals.(这两个提议之间的差别很小。)big, dramatic这两个选项意义恰好和minute相反,timely是“及时的”,和minute的意义不相干。
  3. A disorder是order(秩序)的反义词,意为“无序,混乱”,故应选confusion.Disagreement(不一致),disappearance(消失)均和句子的内容无关,disaster是“灾难”的意思,和disorder的意思有出入。
  4. B to accuse sb. of sth.这个动词短语的意思是“指控某人犯了错误,罪行”,在本句中以被动形式出现,又如:The court accused him of murder(法庭指控他犯有谋杀罪)。四个选项中charged…with和accused…of同义。另外三个选项中,arrested for, praised for都可以替代accused of的位置,但意思分别是“被逮捕”和“受表扬”,显然和句子的原意不一致,described as是“被描述为……”的意思,这里是不能用的。
  5. D 所给的四个选项都是用动词look构成的短语,但其中只有一个的意义相当于动词investigate(调查),那就是look into,其他三个选项的意义分别是:look after照料,look through审核,look forward to期待。
  6. A numerous是个形容词,意思是“许多”,原句的意思是“作了许多尝试来掩盖真相”。在四个选项中只有many和它意义相同。其他三个的意思和numerous毫无相近之处。
  7. D obvious的意思是“显示而易见的,明显的”,在四个选项中只有clear的意思与它最接近。
  8. C 此句的意思是“奇怪的是对那位天才的画家人们了解的这么少”。odd是形容词,意思是“奇怪的”,如:It was odd of him to turn down the proposal.(他拒绝这个建议有点奇怪。)故应选strange.
  9. C participate in是个动词短语,意思是“参加”,和短语take part in同义,又如:The teacher expected all the students to participate in the speech contest.(老师希望所有的学生都参加演讲比赛。)其他三个选项的意思是:contribute to对……做出贡献,take pleasure in乐于做某事,enjoy喜欢。
  10. D preserve是“保存”的意思,preserve meat即“保存肉类”,故应选keep,另外三个动词也都可以用在meat前面,但意思均不是保存,carve meat(把肉分割),cook meat(煮肉),freeze meat(把肉冷冻)。
  11. C previously是副词,意思是“以前、先前”,和作副词用的before同义,又如:I have never heard this language spoken previously1.(此前我从来没有听人讲过这种语言。)beforehand和in advance意思相同,都是“事先,预先”的意思,如:The journey is going to be difficult; we must get well prepared beforehand.(此次路途多辛劳,我们得事前作好准备。)Are we to pay him in advance?(我们是否要先预付给他钱?)
  12. A pull up这个动词短语的意思是“(车辆)停下”,所以应选stop这个动词,slow down慢下来,speed up加速,turn up出现。
  13. B perceive这个动词的意思是“感到”,又如:The change in his tone was slight, but most people present perceived it.(他语气的变化虽很细微,但在场的大多数人还是感觉到了。)appreciate是“欣赏,赞赏”的意思,describe描述,discover发现。
  14. B possess这个动词的意思是“拥有,占有”,和own同义,又如:I don't own much wealth but I possess good health.(我们没有多少财富,但我拥有健康)。waste是“浪费”的意思,purchase购买,和buy同义,sell出售。
  15. A substantial的意思是“十足的,坚固的,实质的,本质的”,如:a substantial building, a substantial meal, a substantial victory.原句的意思是“他们都同意所发生的变化是实质性的”。在四个选项中significant的意思与之最相近。superficial表面的,inadequate不足的,inevitable不可避免的。
  词汇学习2:
  1. A spur: 促进,激励。encourage跟它的意思相近:鼓励,促进。Public apathy2 encourages corruption3 in government. 公众的冷漠助长政府的腐败。endanger:危及,危害。They claim that the herbicide they are using will not endanger human life.他们声称,他们使用的除草剂不会危害人们的生命。endorse:签名,批准。The application was endorsed4 by the committee.申请书已由委员会批准。enlarge:扩大,放大。The UN secretary-general yesterday recommended an enlarged peacekeeping force.昨天联合国秘书长提议扩大维和部队。
  2. C coverage5:覆盖(的区域、范围)。此处指新闻报道的范围。reportage:新闻报道。注意:reportage在这个句子中可以替代coverage,但并不意味着任何时候都可以替换。baggage:行李(不可数)。A piece of baggage:一件行李。英国英语一般用luggage.orphanage:孤独身份,孤儿院。usage:使用,用法。That phrase has gone out of usage.那短语已不为大家所用。
  3. C dimly昏暗地。lit:此处是light(照亮)的过去分词,也有人把它叫做形容词。A dimly lit lane:一条昏暗的胡同。faintly:暗淡地,微弱地,与dimly意思相近。inadequately6不足。hardly几乎不。I can hardly hear him.我几乎听不到他说话。sufficiently:充分地,足够地。
