答案:DBCACDACBDCABCBDABDA
解析:62.语义衔接题。本段第一句是本段的主题句,已经说明酸奶有助于防止口臭。解答
本题要在63题之后。由63题可知,硫化氢是造成口臭的主要原因。可以判断,酸奶应该是
能减少硫化氢的,选[D]reduced“减少,降低”。[A]incread“增加”;[B]required“要求”;
[C]averaged“平均为”。
63.语义衔接题。此处要填的词意思为“原因”,表示硫化氢是造成口臭的主要原因,选
[B]cau“原因”,指直接导致事情发生的原因。第二段的odor—causing有提示作用。[A]reason
“理由”强调从逻辑推理上得出的结论性原因,不是直接说明起因。[C]result“结果”;[D]origin
“源头”侧重指事物的起源或由来。
64.语义衔接题。前面说酸奶可以降低硫化氢的水平,本句说,酸奶中的活性菌是__。选
项[C]keys“关键”可使语义通顺,说明活性菌是酸奶降低硫化氢水平的关键所在。[A]strategies
“策略”;[B]matters“问题”;[D]emergencies“紧急情况,突发事件”。
65.语义衔接题。本段显然是要介绍上段中提到的结论的具体情况,选[A]prented“介绍,
展示”。[B]submitted“提交,递交”所提交的内容应该是某种正式的文件或方案;[C]expod
“揭露,透露”多指揭露丑闻、坏人坏事或各种阴谋,也可指某物暴露在外;[D]written“写”。
66.惯用衔接题。所填词可以使用a(n)~of结构,表示“总共”24名志愿者,适合的是[C]total。
67.惯用衔接题。所填词与instructions“指导”连用,表示指导某个方面的工作,选[D]on。
[B]of后接指导人,不符合这里的语义要求。[A]with不与instruction连用;[C]to后接人,表
示被指导人,或接动词不定式,不符合这里的语义要求。
68.语义衔接题。这里说的是实验的第一阶段:两个星期。后文中提到的实验的第二阶段是
六个星期一直食用无糖酸奶。最后对两个阶段的测试数据进行了对比。显然前面说的是不食
用无糖酸奶的情况,选[A]avoiding“避开,回避”,后接食物时,表示不吃这种东西。
[B]prohibiting“禁止”禁止的是某种行为;[C]preventing“预防,阻止”指采取预防措施或
设置障碍去阻止某人或某事;[D]refusing“拒绝”指拒绝别人的某种建议。
69.语义衔接题。研究者应该是“测量”被试口中的细菌水平和产生口臭的化合物,选
[C]measured“测量,估量”,用于确定某种事物的多少或水平,符合这里的语义要求。
[A]balanced“平衡”;[B]evaluated“评估,估计”多用于对人物或某种工作的评价;[D]counted
“点…的数目”不与level连用。
70.语义衔接题。由前文可知,硫化氢正是造成口臭的主要因素,所以研究者测量的那些化
合物中一定包括这个东西,所以选[B]including“包括”,强调包括作为整体的一部分,而没
有排除在外。[A]involving“使成为必须,牵涉”往往指的是无形的东西;[C]containing“包
含”后面列举包含的全部内容;[D]concerning“关系到,有关于”。
71.语义衔接题。前文讲过第一阶段2星期的实验结束后,研究者测量了被试口腔中的细菌
和口臭化合物水平。现在是第二阶段结束后,显然还要采集样品测量一次,选[D]samples“样
品”。[A]modes“方式,风格”;[B]examples“例子”,takeexamples“举例”;[C]copies“复
制品”。
72.语义衔接题。本文说的是无糖酸奶减轻口臭的功能,所以食用酸奶后口腔中的硫化物的
水平应该是下降的,所以选[C]decread“减少,下降”。[A]grew“增长”;[B]remained“保
持”;[D]rin“上升”。
73.语义衔接题。基金会的工作是把人们的注意力引导到无糖酸奶上,选[A]drawing,drawing
people,sattentiontosth.。[B]paying的宾语只能是主语自己的注意力,不能是别人的;
[C]attracting是要把注意力吸引到自己身上来,用在此处不合适;[D]concentrating与[B]同理
排除。
74.语义衔接题。该基金会自己一直在提倡人们使用无糖酸奶,他们为之高兴的事情应该是
自己以前不知道无糖酸奶还有其他的作用,而研究证明了这一点,排除[C]certain和[D]aware。
根据句中的be~of结构,排除[A]uncertain,选[B]unaware“不明白的,不知道的”。
75.语义衔接题。本句是对无糖酸奶的作用的肯定,选[C]doubt,nodoubt“无疑地”。[A]idea
“主意,观点”[B]hesitation“迟疑”指行为的迟疑,在这里不合适;[D]n,non“没
有理由,不必”。
76.语义衔接题。无糖酸奶显然是糖块和巧克力的更健康的替代品,选[B]alternative“替换
物,替代品”。[A]lection“选择”;[C]preference“优先选择,爱好”;[D]substitute“替代”
指的是某人或某物不在时可以用来代替的人或物,不符合文中说话者对无糖酸奶的倾向性态
度。
77.语义衔接题。既然无糖酸奶是更健康的食品,医生应该鼓励节食者把它纳入食谱,选
[D]incorporate.incorporatesth.intosth.“把…包含进…”。[A]convene“召集”;[B]affiliate
“使…隶属,接纳“为成员”;[C]constrain“强制,约束”。
78.逻辑衔接题。上面两段都在讲卡特医生对于酸奶能减少口臭的认可。本段说的则是卡特
强调“最好的防止口臭的方法还是良好的口腔卫生习惯”。语义上存在转折,所以选
[A]However“不过,然而”。
【点睛】[B]Moreover“而且,再者,此外”表示递进关系;[C]Therefore“因此,所以”表
示因果关系,强调结果;[D]Otherwi“否则”也表转折,但讲的是如果某种条件或情况不
发生时的情况,与此处的语义不符。
79.语义衔接题。此处的意思是“采取”良好的口腔卫生程序,只能选[B]adopting“采纳,
采用”。[A]bringing“带来”;[C]receiving“接到”;[D]adapting意为“改造,改善”,良好的
程序不需要改造。
80.语义衔接题。既然无糖酸奶对口腔有益,那么吃sugarysnacks(含糖零食)的频率(frequency)
应该也是要降下来的,选[D]down,cutdown“降低,削减,减少”,符合这里的语义要求。
[A]off,cutoff意思是“停止,切开”;[B]back,cutback“减少”常指减少开支;[C]out,cut
out“切去,放弃,删除”。
81.语义衔接题。医生对防止口臭的建议,显然应该是定期看牙医,选[A]regularly“定期地”。
[B]occasionally“偶尔地”;[C]rarely“极少地”.[D]normally“通常地,正常地”不符合这里
的语境要求。
