在山东省潍坊市，风筝不仅仅是玩具，而且还是这座城市文化的标志。潍坊以“风筝之

都”而闻名，已有将近2,400年放飞风筝的历史。传说中国古代哲学家墨子用了三年时间在

潍坊制作了世界上首个风筝，但放飞的第一天风筝就坠落并摔坏了。也有人相信风筝是中

国古代木匠鲁班发明的。据说他的风筝用木头和竹子制作，飞了三天后才落地。

解题思路

26.【答案】Ggrowing

【解析】根据上下文可知，此空为名词popularity的修饰限定词，来修饰popularity，

应是一个具有形容词性质的词汇，在备选项A，G，L，N中只有G选项growing符合

题意。此处的意思是：电子医疗记录越来越受欢迎。

27.【答案】Adependent

【解析】根据系动词become可知，此空为hospital-baddoctors的表语，且后面与

介词on搭配，在剩余备选项A，L，N中只有A选项dependent符合题意。短语be

dependentonsth.的意思是依赖于……。此处的意思是：医院里的医生一天到晚依赖电脑。

28.【答案】Cfast

【解析】根据破折号可知，此句有一个插入语whichkeepdoctorsfrombesides，改句

主语为desktops，谓语为giveaway，而且用了正在进行时。故可以判断此空是修饰谓语

的，应为副词。据选项可知，选项C和K是副词，C项fast在此更符合题意。故选C。

此句意思是：让医生离开病床的台式机在迅速地让位于无线设备。

29.【答案】Fgive

【解析】根据hadto可知，此空应该为动词原形。备选项F，H和M中，F选项give

更符合题意。此句意思是：随着日常事务的增加，有些事还必须得办。

30.【答案】Hlaunch

【解析】根据题意，此空为apilotproject的谓语，且和前面的helped构成动词搭配，

应为动词原形。只有备选项H项launch符合题意。launchapilotproject意为：开展一

项实验项目。

31.【答案】Nsuccessful

【解析】根据题意可知，此空为Theexperiment的表语，且有一个结构搭配so…that…

（如此……以至于……），在备选项B，D，E，L，N中只有N选项successful符合题意，

意思是：实验如此成功，以至于……。

32.【答案】Ipolicy

【解析】根据adopted可知，此空为名词，作adopted的宾语。在备选项I，J，M，

O当中，和adopted能构成搭配且符合题意的为选项I项policy，意为：采取相同的政

策或者相同的策略。

33.【答案】Bdesigned

【解析】根据题意可知，此空为labcoats的后置定语，定语后为pockets。因此，lab

coatsdesignedwithpockets符合题意，此句中designed为过去分词表示被动，和labcoats

构成被动关系。

34.【答案】Otreatments

【解析】根据题中and可知，此空需要一个和tests并列的名词，作got的宾语。依

据选项，只有备选项O项treatments符合题意。故选ndtreatments意为：检

查和治疗。

35.【答案】Egained

【解析】根据题意可知，此空为patients的谓语，时态应为过去时，同时后面和abetter

understanding搭配，因此备选项E项gained在语法和意义上与其搭配，意为：对……

有更好的理解。

SectionB

36【答案】D

【解析】题干大意是：根据古希腊哲学家，我们不可能理解生活的每个方面。原文D段

中提到：notreallygoingtobeabletounderstandallof

thedimensionsofthisplan（生活中有更大的规划， 你真得不可能了解这个规划的所有方

面），题干是对该句的同义替换，故本题和D段匹配。

37【答案】B

【解析】题干大意是：古代哲学家跟现代人看待生活的方式不同。原文B段最后一句：

ThenicethingaboutancientphilosophyasofferedbytheGreeksisthattheytendedtoe

lifeclearandwhole,inawaythatwetendnottoelifetoday（好的一点是希腊人的古代哲

学总是用清晰、完整的思路看待生活，而我们当代人并不以这样的方式看生活）。题干的意

思与本句意思相符，故本题和B段匹配。

38【答案】F

【解析】题干大意是：并非所有的生意伙伴都是你的灵魂伴侣。原文F段中提到：Just

becauIhaveabusinessrelationshipwithanindividualandIcanprofitfromthat

relationship,itdoesnotnecessarilymeanthatthispersonismyfriend（仅仅因为我跟某人

有生意上的关系，并能从这种关系中受益，这并不一定意味着这个人就是我的朋友），言外

之意即并不是所有的生意伙伴都能变成真正的朋友，所以本题选F段。

39【答案】A

【解析】题干大意是：尽管现代社会充斥着各种各样的挑战，我们仍然可以过上和平的

生活。原文开篇A段提到：Isitpossibletoenjoyapeacefullifeinaworldthatis

increasinglychallengedbythreatsanduncertaintiesfromwars,terrorism,economiccris

andawidespreadoutbreakofinfectiousdias（可能在这样一个世界过上和平的生活吗？

这个世界越来越受到各种威胁和不确定性的挑战，包括战争、恐怖主义、经济危机和传染

病爆发）。作者的回答是：Theanswerisyes。所以本题选A段。

40【答案】L

【解析】题干的大意是：从善者尽管没有得到具体的好处，但在精神上依然会感到受

益。原文L段中提到：Evenifthereisnoconcretebenefitpaidinrespontoyourgooddeed,

attheveryleast,thedoerofthegooddeedhastheopportunitytoenjoyakindofspiritually

enlightenedmoment（尽管对你的善行没有得到具体的回报，但至少，行善之人有机会享

受到一种精神受到启发的时刻），所以题干和L段匹配。

41【答案】H

【解析】题干的意思是：如今如何实现心里宁静和满足是值得考虑的。原文H段提到：

Thisissomethingthatisverymuchwellworthconsideringhereinthemodernera（这是很

值得现代人考虑的事情）。题干中today和inthemodernera及wellworthour

consideration和wellworthconsidering同义替换，所以本题与H段相匹配。

42【答案】C

【解析】题干的意思是：MichaelSoupios建议我们应该停下来仔细思考我们的当务之急。

原文C段最后一句提到：stopandreflectaboutthingslikeourpriorities,ourvalues,and

ourrelationships（停下来反思下我们的当务之急、价值观和关系），题干的thinkcarefully

aboutsth和原文的reflect为同义替换，故本题选C段。

43【答案】K

【解析】题干的意思是：古代哲学家强烈建议我们行善事。依据关键词dogood可把答

案定位到副标题Dogoodtoothers的段落。此部分的K段第一句提到：ancientwisdom

urgesustodogood（古老智慧强烈要求我们行善事），很显然，题干与K段相匹配，故选

K.

44【答案】B

【解析】题干的意思是：古代希腊哲学家的智慧教学是无时间限制的，而且也适用于当

代的生活。依据题干中的关键词timeless，可以把答案定位到原文B段的第一句：The

wisdomoftheancientGreekphilosophersistimeless（古希腊哲学家的智慧是无时代限制

的），所以本题匹配B段，故选B。

45【答案】J

【解析】题干的意思是：伤害别人也会伤害自己。原文L段提到：whenyouhurtanother

humanbeing,youhurtyourlf（在你伤害他人时，你也伤害了自己）。题干的doharmto

与原文的hurt同义替换，所以本题与J段匹配，故选J。

SectionC

Passageone

46.【答案】D

【解析】根据题干，可将答案定位在第一段，原文第一段首句提到：Attitudestowardnew

technologiesoftenfallalonggenerationallines（对待新科技的态度往往依据年龄线划分），

即不同年龄群体对待新科技的反应不同，D选项是对原文的第一段首句的同义替换，故D

项正确。

47【答案】A

【解析】根据题干中的关键词drivelesscar，可将答案定位到第二段。原文第二段提到：

Whenyoulookatattitudestowarddriverlesscars,theredoesn’temtobeaclear

generationaldivide（人们对待无人驾驶汽车的态度似乎并没有明确的年龄划分），A选项

是对该句话的同义替换，故本题选A。

48【答案】B

【解析】根据题干Whydoesthedriverlesscarappealtosomeoldpeople?（为什么无人

驾驶汽车吸引了一些老年人？），可将答案定位到第四段，第四段指出：Olderadults,

especiallythowithlimitedmobilityordifficultydrivingontheirown,areoneofthe

classicucasfordriverlesscars（老年人，特别是那些行动有限或者自己开车困难的人，

是无人驾驶汽车的典型用户。），A,B,C,D四个选项中，B项最符合原文的解释，故选B。

49【答案】A

【解析】根据题干Whatislikelytoaffectone’sattitudetowardthedriverlesscar?（什么

最可能影响对待无人驾驶汽车的态度？），可将答案定位到第六段和第七段。第六段谈及教

育水平；而第七段提到的是：Whereapersonlivesmatters,too（一个人住哪里也会有影响）。

A,B,C,D四个选项中A项符合其中一个因素，故选A。

50【答案】C

【解析】根据题干的意思（谁有可能第一个购买无人驾驶汽车）和一般答案顺序原则，

可将答案优先定位至最后一段，根据该段最后一句：Oncedriverlesscarsareactually

availableforsale,theearlyadopterswillbethepeoplewhocanaffordtobuythem（一旦无

人驾驶汽车真的开始出售，那么早期的购买者会是那些有买得起的人），即那些有钱人，C

选项hewealthy（富人）符合题意，故选C。

Passagetwo

maintainingsuchaslowculturalmetabolismhasbeenmuchharder（自从工业化以来，保

相关的内容，第二段主要讲的是饮食，而且该句下面进一步补充：withthelongmiddaymeal

的午餐的用变成了吃盒饭或到食品摊上买着吃），依据上下文可知culturalmetabolism指
