參考答案

1.“E911”/“enhanced911”?！癊911”/“enhanced911”。解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞preciselocation和GPSsystems定位到第三個小標題下的第二段，可知E911使得處理緊急事故者可以通過全球定位系統(tǒng)確定打手機者的準確位置，由此可得答案。

2.D解析：這兩句講述了轉基因作物支持者的觀點，其中第三句提到，基因工程很快會成為幫助養(yǎng)活世界迅速膨脹人口的重要工具(geneticengineering…willsoonbecomeanessentialtoolforhelpingtofeedtheworld'sburgeoningpopulation)，由此可知答案為[D]。

3.crackedorbrokenglassstaysintheframe

4.itsownclimaticsystemsitsownclimaticsystems解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞Antarctica、immune和insulated定位到第三個小標題下的最后一段，可知南極大體上不受全球趨勢的影響，而且南極非常大，可以形成自己的氣候體系，所以南極大部分現(xiàn)在似乎還沒有融化，由此可得答案。

5.allbuttwo。allbuttwo。解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞foregoing和50highestpayingjobs定位到最后一個小標題下的第三段，可知除了空中交通管制員和核反應堆操控員以外，50個報酬最高的工作只有兩個需要四年大學學歷，所以說上大學通常不是明智之舉。

6.lowlow解析：文章在最后一部分談到了針對兩種最常見Bt玉米的實驗一Accordingtotheagency，however，preliminarystudiesevaluatingthetwomostcommonBtcornplants(fromNovartisandMonsanto)alreadyindicatethatmonarchlarvaeencounterBtcornpollenonmilkweedplantsbutatlevelstoolowtobetoxic：接著又談美國環(huán)保署“估計，即使馬利筋葉片上每平方公分有高達150顆的玉米花粉，昆蟲食用后也沒有明顯的危害”。

7.C解析：細節(jié)題。文章第8，9段講述了她在做志愿者的時候找到了一份全職工作，盡管現(xiàn)在工作很忙但是還堅持做志愿者Now，eventhoughIhaveademandingjob，Istillvolunteer，而在失業(yè)之前她一直認為沒有時間一邊工作一邊做志愿者Beforeherjobloss，shethoughtshedidn'thavetimetovolunteerwhileworking，并沒有后悔的意思。

8.insects

9.demonstratethemdemonstratethem解析：推理判斷題。此處要求填入謂語成分，補足題干主句部分。根據(jù)原句可知，要仔細想想自己要張揚的個性特點，而后不要將其陳述出來，而要展示出來。注意，題干中particular與原文中的specific相對應，題干中的insteadofstatingthem與原文中don'tjuststatethem形成對應關系，由此可見demonstratethem符合題干要求，為本題答案。

10.humorousandcolloquialyetpoetichumorousandcolloquial，yetpoetic解析：文章倒數(shù)第二段有HeportrayeduniquelyAmericansubjectsinahumorousandcolloquial，yetpoetic，language．這樣一句，可知答案。

11.tensionanddisturbedthinking

12.thecanopylayerthecanopylayer解析：由題干中的Epiphytes和waterandnutrients定位到第二個小標題下末段末句Epiphytesarecloseenoughtothetoptoreceiveadequatelight，andtherunofffromthecanopylayerprovidesallthewaterandnutrients(養(yǎng)分)theyneed…此處需要填入名詞性成分。題干中的get與原文中的receive屬同義詞：原文指出Epiphytes“附生植物”靠近樹頂能夠吸收充足的陽光和樹冠層的廢物，而樹冠層為附生植物提供生長所需要的水和養(yǎng)分。故答案為thecanopylayer。

13.C

14.EasterEggHunttheEasterE8SRollEasterEggHunt，theEasterE8SRoll解析：答案本題的出處在原文第四部分第二段。根據(jù)題目中的egggames在文章中迅速掃讀，確定答案句所在位置——該段倒數(shù)第四句。

15.C解析：文章中未提及此信息。

16.designingacreaturedesigningacreature解析：文章第十段中提到Moravec和Newell都希望能夠通過創(chuàng)造生命來扮演上帝的角色。

17.B解析：本題的關鍵詞為PennsylvaniaStateUniversity，很容易定位于原文相關標題“HOTTESTFORENTREPRENEURS—PennsylvaniaStateUniversity,UniversityPark，Pa．”，原內容為大學10個本科生院中有6個開設企業(yè)管理課程。斯密爾商學院和工程學院是最佳伙伴……范圍也有大到小，所以故本題應選的是N。

18.individualdepartmentswithinthecompany。individualdepartments
