二、女人经期一般几天Passage 1(总题数:1,分数:25.00)
Parents who smoke often open a window or turn on a fan to
clear the air for their children, but experts now have identified a
relative threat to children"s health that isn"t as easy to get rid of: 1
third-hand smoke. That"s the term being ud to describe the
invisible yet toxic mixture of gas and particles clinging to 2
smokers" hair and clothing, not mention cushions and carpeting, 3
that linger long after cond-hand smoke has cleared from a room. 4
The reminder includes heavy metals and radioactive materials that 5
young children can get on their hands and ingest, especially if
they"re crawling or playing on the floor.
Doctors from MassGeneral Hospital for Children in Boston
coined the term "third-hand smoke" to describe the chemicals in
a new study that focud on the risks they po to infants and
children. The study was published in latest issue of the journal 6
Pediatrics. "Everyone knows that cond-hand smoke is bad, but
虫字组词they don"t know about this," said Dr. Jonathan P. Winickoff, the
leaded author of the study and an assistant professor of 7 柳子沟
pediatrics at Harvard Medical School. "When your kids are out of 8
the hou, they might smoke. Or they smoke in the car. Or they
strap the kid in the car at in the back and crack the window and
smoke, and they think it"s okay so the cond-hand smoke isn"t 9
getting to their kids," Dr. Winickoff continued. "We needed a term
to describe the tobacco toxins that aren"t invisible." 10 (分数:25.00)

解析:relative→related[解析] 词汇错误。relative作形容词时表示“相对的,比较的”,也可
表示“相关的,有关系的”,但意为后者时通常不放在名词前直接修饰名词,而是后接介词to形成固定搭配。所以这里应该改成related(相关的),直接修饰后面的名词threat。
解析:gas→gas[解析] 语法错误。由于上文用到了mixture一词,表示“混合物”,由此可知这里的gas应该是指“各种各样的气体”,当表示这个含义时,gas是可数名词,应该改成复数形式。
解析:∧mention→to[解析] 词汇错误。not to mention是固定搭配,表示“更不用说”,必须加介词to。
解析:linger→lingers[解析] 语法错误。本句that引导的是定语从句,修饰的先行词是前面的mixture,故谓语动词要用单数形式lingers。本句意思是“房间内的二手烟清除许久之后,仍有看不见的气体和颗粒的有毒混合物残留在座垫、地毯或吸烟者的头发和衣物上。”
解析:reminder→remainder[解析] 词汇错误。reminder表示“令人回忆的东西,提醒物”,在这里与上下文不符。前文提到仍有看不见的有毒混合物残留在房间内,这里继续谈到残留物包含的物质,如重金属,辐射物质等。所以此处应改为reminder。的易混词remainder,表示“剩余物,残余部分”。
解析:∧latest→the[解析] 词汇错误。latest表示“最新的”,本句话的意思是“研究结果发表于最新一期的《小儿科》医学期刊”,这里最新一期的期刊是特指,故需要加上定冠词the。
解析:leaded→lead[解析] 词汇错误。leaded作形容词时,表示“加铅的,镀铅的”,而后面修饰的名词是author,语义搭配上不恰当。lead作名词可以表示“主角,领舞”,在这里与author形成固定用法,表示“第一作者”。
原计划
解析:your→their[解析] 语法错误。全文从未使用第二人称进行表述,从下文they might smoke可知,此处的小孩也是指那些抽烟者的小孩,故将物主代词改为their。
人生不设限解析:so→becau[解析] 语篇错误。so的前半部分提到“许多父母认为只要把孩子放在后座上,打开车窗,这样抽烟就没有问题”,后面提到“小孩没吸到二手烟”。从句子之间的逻辑关系来判断,本句的因果关系颠倒了,是前果后因,故将so改成becau。
解析:invisible→visible或aren"t→are[解析] 语篇错误。本句使用了双重否定,则原句表肯定的含义,即我们需要一个术语来描述这些看得见的香烟毒素。而这与第一段对“三手烟”
的定义明显相悖,“所谓三手烟是指房间内的二手烟清除许久之后,仍残留在座垫、地毯或吸烟者头发和衣物上看不见的气体和颗粒的有毒混合物。”这些有毒气体本身是“看不见”的,所以本句在意思上应该表示否定。
三、Passage 2(总题数:1,分数:25.00)
Today women earn almost 60 percent of all bachelor"s
degrees and more than half of master"s and Ph.D."s. Many people
believe that, as this may be good for women as income earners, it 1
foreshadows ill for their marital prospects.
As Kate Bolick wrote in a much-discusd article in The
Atlantic last fall, American women face "a radical shrinking pool 2
of what are traditionally considered to be "marriageable" men-
tho who are better educated and earn more than they do."
Educated women worry that they are scaring potential partners, 3
and experts claim that tho who do marry will end up with
satisfactory matches. They point to outdated studies suggesting 4 关于父母的歌曲
that women with high earnings than their husbands do more 5
houwork to compensate for the threat to their mates" egos.
Is this really the fate facing with educated women: either no 6
marriage at all or the marriage with more houwork? Nonn. 7
That may have been the ca in the past, but no longer. By 1996,
intelligence and education moved up to No. 5 on men"s ranking of 8
desirable qualities in a mate. The desire for a good cook and
houkeeper had dropped to 14th place, near the bottom of the
18-point scale. The sociologist Christine B. Whelan reports that by
2008, men"s interest in a woman"s education had arin to No. 4, 9
just after mutual attraction, dependent character and emotional 10
stability.(分数:25.00)
解析:as(this)→while/though/although[解析] 语篇错误。本句说“女性受教育的程度越来越高有助于提高她们的收入”,下一句提到“她们的婚姻前景却并不可观”,两句之间是让步关
系,不能用表示原因或时间的连词as。
解析:radical→radically[解析] 语法错误。radical是形容词。表示“根本的;激进的”,shrinking在这里是形容词,表示“缩小的”,因此要用副词来修饰,故改为radically,表示“适婚男性急剧减少的状况”。
解析:scaring∧→away[解析] 词汇错误。scare是动词,表示“惊吓,恐吓”,此处讨论的是受教育女性很难找到理想伴侣,她们的高学历不是恐吓到对方,而是让潜在的伴侣望而却步,因此用词组scare away更合适,表示“吓跑”。
解析:satisfactory→unsatisfactory[解析] 语篇错误。前文一直在讲述高学历女性择偶难的问题,本句开头说高学历女性担心吓跑对方,and表示并列,因此后面专家的言论应该和前面的观点一致,即最终结婚的人婚姻也不令人满意,而不是满意,故改为unsatisfactory。
解析:high→higher[解析] 语法错误。本句后面出现的than表明这是一个比较句,应该用形容词high的比较级higher,表示“收入比丈夫高的女性做的家务多,这样可以弥补对男性伴侣自尊的威胁”。
解析:with→ [解析] 词汇错误。face作动词时,表示“面临”,是及物动词,可以直接接宾语,不需要加介词with,另外可以用作be faced with,表示“面临”。
解析:the→a[解析] 词汇错误。本句是结构,表示“或者……或者……”,本句意思是说“要么没有婚姻,要么就是婚后家务不断,受教育的女性命运就该如此吗?”此处的婚姻并非特指某类婚姻或某人的婚姻,而是泛指,所以将定冠词改成不定冠词。
解析:∧moved→had[解析] 语法错误。本句开头出现的短语By 1996,即“到1996年为止”,表示动作从过去某个时间持续到1996年,因此要用过去完成时,此处需加助动词had。
解析:arin→rin[解析] 词汇错误。arin是动词ari的过去分词形式,表示“出现,产生”,此处指“男性对女性教育和智力状况的兴趣已经上升到第四位了”,因此要用动词ri的过去分词rin,表示“上升”。
解析:dependent→dependable[解析] 词汇错误。dependent表示“依赖的,依靠的”,强调依赖某人或某事,经常和介词on连用。而此处强调男性对女性品质感兴趣的排名,后面搭
配的是character“性格”一词,应该用dependable更合适,表示“可以依赖的,可以信赖的”。
四、Passage 3(总题数:1,分数:25.00)
As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies
grow and muscles develop with the input of adequate nutritious 1
food. Otherwi, we should keep learning day by day to maintain 2
our keen mental power and expand our intelligent capacity. 3
Constant learning supplies us inexhaustible fuel for driving us to 4
sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning 接力赛
incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the time in the 5
information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of
uncertainty.
Once learning stops, vegetation ts in. It is a common fallacy
to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of
knowledge. On contrary, learning should be a never-ending 6
process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changed 7
so fast, the cea from learning for just a few days will make a
person lag behind. What"s wor, the animalistic instinct deep in
our subconsciousness will come to life, and weakening our will to 8
pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away
obstacles to our success, even killing our desire for the refinement
of our characteristic. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the 9
stagnation of the mind, or even wor, its fossilization, Therefore,
to stay mentally younger, we have to take learning as a lifelong 10
career.(分数:25.00)
