15.A

16.tastetaste解析：本句意為“我們看得見它，聞得見它，…它，喝它，而且在它中間掙扎?！庇沙ＷR可知，此空處只有一個“嘗”較合適。

17.poorpoor解析：此句意為“但是很容易通過給…表現(xiàn)報酬或創(chuàng)造對報酬太…的期望而扼殺創(chuàng)造性?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)填“劣拙的，不好的”。

18.withwith解析：endupwith意為“以…結(jié)束，以…告終”，為固定短語。

19.farfar解析：可用于修飾“toolittle”的只能是far，意為“太少，特別少”。

20.thatthat解析：此空后的內(nèi)容為maintain的內(nèi)容，即此空后的句子為maintain的賓語，應(yīng)填一個可引導(dǎo)賓語從句的詞。

21.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應(yīng)填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應(yīng)是“年輕的”。

22.someonesomeone解析：由本文的第一句話“‘Down-to-earth’meanssomeoneorsomethingthatishonest．realisticandeasytodealwith．”可知“Down-to-earth”指的是誠實，現(xiàn)實、平易近人的那些人。這里的someone和后面是相對應(yīng)的。故答案為someone。

23.promisingpromising解析：此句意為“一家大制造公司最近采訪了許多…的工程師，這些工程師都已離開這家公司。”由上下句判斷，此空處填“有希望的，有前景的”最合句意。

24.drinkingdrinking解析：由本句句意“通過將污水和化學(xué)物質(zhì)倒入河流和湖泊，我們已經(jīng)污染了我們的…水?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)為“飲用”。

25.oftenoften解析：本句話的意思是“那些自我感覺很了不起、內(nèi)心充滿驕傲的人，總是不需要理由的就被人認(rèn)為是趾高氣揚的人?！惫蔬@里答案為often。

26.B解析：由文章第一段第一句“Insuranceissupposedtoprovideprotectionagainstfinancialrisks…”可知。

27.EE解析：第一段引出了人們對未來的擔(dān)心，認(rèn)為老齡化將會帶來各種問題。第三段是對老齡化社會的肯定，認(rèn)為這是文明發(fā)展的成果?！癿yth”一詞含有杜撰的意思。一些人的擔(dān)心是多余的。E起到承上啟下的作用。

28.D解析：由短文第一句“Opinionpollsarenowbeginningtoshowthat，whoeveristoblameandwhateverhappensfromnowon，highunemploymentisprobablyheretostay．”可知。

29.A解析：由A中的第一段“Washington，thecapitaloftheUnitedStates，isinWashingtonD.C.”可知答案為A。

30.AA解析：由此空上下文可以看出，A填入使上下兩段意思銜接。

31.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend,andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

32.B解析：由B中的第四句話“ThenorthernpartoftheTempleiscircularwhilethesouthernpartissquare，”可知.

33.D解析：A、B、C項文中均沒有提到。根據(jù)第三段的論述，可知D項是惟一正確的。

34.B解析：第三段中Dr．Laragh提到“…所以建議所有人應(yīng)該少吃鹽沒有意義?！笨梢酝浦难韵轮馐恰搬t(yī)生不應(yīng)建議人們不吃鹽”。

35.C解析：由C中“It’spopularbecauseitisstillaffordable．a(chǎn)lthoughpriceshaverocketedoverthelastyear．”可以看出WillesdenGreen去年飛速增長，但是房價還能接受。所以此處答案為C。

36.B解析：有關(guān)商業(yè)方面的報道都是對Stiglitz的論點的支持信息?！啊璭speciallywhenthebusinesspageisfullofstoriesaboutwhite——collarcrimeandthestockmarketseemsstuckinaperpetualrut．．．”所以本題應(yīng)選B。

37.B解析：由文章倒數(shù)第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetalltothehead．”可知。

38.B解析：從第五段中描述到，看到裝著支票的信封沒有了，但是垃圾還在，所以作者的丈夫懷疑信封是被別人偷走了，立馬就通知銀行作廢了這張支票。所以Mickey最終還是沒有從銀行中取走錢。因此正確答案為B。

39.D解析：“bitingone'snails”的意思是“一籌莫展”，通過后面的表述，“mostofherclientsspend$12to$50weekly，…”可以看出Spero并不是到了沒有顧客的地步，只是越來越少，所以他并沒有到達(dá)絕望的處境。故應(yīng)選D。

40.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案為C。

41.A由上下兩段可知，只有A放在此處可以使上下文銜接，意思順暢。

42.A由第二段最后一句話可知A項正確。B項不能從文中推知。C項文中沒有提及。男性工人的健康在法律中是得到考慮了的，故D項不正確。

43.D文章第三段第二句“Inmostcountriesthecostofcrudeoilnowaccountsforasmallershareofthepriceofpetrolthanitdidinthel970s．InEurope…．”指出原油價格只是石油價格中的一小部分，以歐洲的例子說明稅收高達(dá)石油零售價的五分之四，所以石油稅上升會造成油價的大幅度上漲。故應(yīng)選D。

44.C短文賞析

世界貿(mào)易組織的建立加強了世界貿(mào)易體系，更加有效地管理國際貨物及服務(wù)貿(mào)易。第一，通過大幅度降低貿(mào)易壁壘、關(guān)稅及農(nóng)業(yè)保護(hù)，將增加貿(mào)易自由化程度。第二，世貿(mào)組織的建立可以增強國際貿(mào)易條例的實施，減少貿(mào)易保護(hù)主義，更加有效地解決貿(mào)易爭端。第三，建立了新的多邊規(guī)則，如服務(wù)及知識產(chǎn)權(quán)保護(hù)。這將促進(jìn)全球自由貿(mào)易體系的建立。世貿(mào)組織的建立改變了世界經(jīng)濟結(jié)構(gòu)，孤立的經(jīng)濟體被聯(lián)系到一起，國內(nèi)金融市場融入世界體系，跨國公司日益成為投資資本和生產(chǎn)地點分配的主體。

答案解析：

由短文第一段中的“TheWTO，whichsucceedstheGATT"，…”可知，WTO應(yīng)誕生于GATT之后。

45.D由文章第四段可知本題答案為D。2022-2023年山西省運城市公共英語五級(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學(xué)校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
