C.c,b,d,a D.b,c,d,a答案53.A解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Withoutenoughblood,thebrainlivesforonlythreetofiveminutes.Moreoftenthedoctorscan’tfixthedamage.”可知大腦損傷手術(shù)的最大難度在于大腦缺血后生存的時間只有3&5分鐘,沒有足夠手術(shù)時間。54.D解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Hethinksdoctorsshouldmakethebrainverycold.Ifitisverycold,thebraincanlivewithoutbloodfor30minutes.”可以推斷出通過降低大腦溫度可以延長大腦存活時間,使得手術(shù)成為可能。55.A解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Hethinksdoctorsshouldmakethebrainverycold.Ifitisverycold,thebraincanlivewithoutbloodfor30minutes.”可以推斷出大腦損傷手術(shù)時間可以延長到30分鐘。56.B解析:這是一道排序題。根據(jù)最后一段Dr.White利用猴子做試驗的順序,應(yīng)該是先把血液降溫,然后把降溫后的血液輸入大腦,然后切斷大腦血液做手術(shù)。第3題普通高等學(xué)校夏季招生考試英語（全國Ⅱ）EMostpeoplewanttoknowhowthingsaremade.Theyhonestlyadmit,however,thattheyhardlyknowathingwhenitcomestounderstandinghowapieceof.musicismade.Whereacomposer(作曲家）begins,howhemanagestokeepgoing-infact,howandwhenhelearnshistrade-allarecoveredincompletedarkness.Thecomposer,inshort,isamanofmystery(神秘）.Oneofthefirstthingsthecommonmanwantstoknowaboutisthepartinspiration(靈感）playsinacomposer’swork.Hefindsitdifficulttobelievethatcomposersarenotmuchinterestedinthatquestion.Writingmusicisasnaturalforthecomposeraseatingorsleepingforall.Musicissomethingthatthecomposerhappenstohavebeenbornfor.Thecomposer,therefore,doesnotsaytohimself:“DoIfeelinspired?”Hesaystohimself.“DoIfeellikeworkingtoday?”Andifhefeelslikeworking,hedoes.Itismoreorlesslikesayingtohimself:“DoIfeelsleepy？”ifyoufeelsleepy.yougotosleep.Ifyoudon’tfeelsleepyyoustayup.Ifthecomposerdoesn’tfeellikeworking,hedoesn’twork.It’sassimpleasthat.57.Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?.A.Composer:amanofmystery

D.neveraskshimselfverysimplequestions60.Theauthorwillmostprobablyagreethatcomposers__________.A.arebornwithagiftformusic B.arepeoplefullofmysteryC.worklateatnightfortheirmusic D.knowalotabouteatingandsleeping答案57.A解析:這是一道主旨題。文章主要介紹了作曲家給人的神秘感和他們工作的方式。B選項不對因為文中指出有時候好音樂來自靈感,C選項不對是因為文章引用作曲和睡覺的關(guān)系是作為例子說明作曲家的工作方式,D選項文中沒有提到。58.D解析:這是一道推理題。根據(jù)第一段“Thecomposer,inshort,isamanofmystery.”可以推斷出作曲家從哪里開始,怎么發(fā)展,他怎么學(xué)習(xí)的這門手藝,都不為人知,所以才會神秘,可以推斷出“coveredincompletedarkness”是不為人知的意思。59.C解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Oneofthefirstthingsthecommonmanwantstoknowaboutisthepartinspirationplaysinacomposer’swork.Hefindsitdifficulttobelievethatcomposersarenotmuchinterestedinthatquestion.”可知大眾不能理解作曲家并不關(guān)心靈感在作曲工作中的作用,可以推斷出大眾認為作曲家應(yīng)該比較關(guān)注靈感。60.A解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)最后一段可知作曲家對于工作就像人對于睡眠一樣(是一種本能）,也就是說他們對于作曲有一種天賦。第4題普通高等學(xué)校夏季招生考試英語（北京卷）AEXERCISEINEXACTLY4MINUTESPERDAY!$14,615TIMEISIT.Over92%ofpeoplewhoownexerciseequipmentand88%ofpeoplewhoownhealthclubmembershipsdonotexercise.A4-minutecompleteworkoutisnolongerhardtobelieveforallthepeoplewhohaveboughtourexcellentRangeofMotionmachine（ROM）since1990.Over97%ofpeoplewhorentourROMfor30daysendupbuyingit,duetothehealthbenefitsexperiencedduringthattryoutandtheROMperformancescorethattellsthestoryofhealthandfitnessimprovement.Atunder20centsperuse,the4-minuteROMexerciseistheleastexpensivefullbodycompleteexerciseapersoncando.Howdoweknowthatitisunder20centsperuse?Over90%ofROMmachinesgotoprivatehomes,butwehaveafewthatareincommercialusefor12yearsandtheyhaveenduredover80,000useseach,withoutneedofrepair.TheROM4-minuteworkoutisforpeoplefrom10toover100yearsoldandhighlytrainedathletesaswell.TheROMbalancesbloodsugar,andrepairsbadbacksandshoulders.Toogoodtobetrue?Getourfreevideoandseeforyourself.Thebestproofforusisthat97%ofrentalsbecomesales.Pleasevisitourwebsiteatwww.orcall（800）123-6460.FactoryShowroom:ROMFAB,823MainStreet,BatonRouge,LA70893Fax:（800）123-6461Email:sales@56.WhatisROM?A.Apieceofexerciseequipment.

B.Educationinfamily.C.Harmonyinfamily. D.Teenagetroubleinfamily.答案67.D解析:這是一道細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“whichistheoppositeofthepopularly-heldimageofunhappyteenagerslockedintheirroomafterendlessfamilyquarrels.”可知(青少年）流行的形象是和父母無休止爭吵完后把自己鎖在屋子里,所以給人的印象是常常和其他家庭成員爭吵。68.B解析:這是一道細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“Theydon’twanttorocktheboat.”可知孩子們不想制造麻煩?！皉ocktheboat”是搗亂、制造麻煩的意思。69.D解析:這是一道細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“Soitseemsthatthisgenerationofparentsismuchmorelikelythanparentsof30yearsagototreattheirchildrenasfriends.”和SusanCrome的描述“Lookingbackonthelast10years,therewasalotofwhatyoucouldcallnegotiation.”可知這一代的父母比起30年前上一代的父母更善于把孩子當成朋友看待,Susan說有很多事情都可以和她父母商量。也就是說這一代父母給孩子更多自由。70.A解析:這是一道歸納題。根據(jù)最后一段第二句“Itispossiblethattheideaofteenagerebellionisnotrootedinrealfacts.”作者認為青少年的反叛的觀念并不一定來源于事實,所以青少年反叛的觀點不一定正確。71.C解析:這是一道主旨題。本文主要結(jié)束了家庭和睦的問題,比較了這一代父母對待青少年的態(tài)度以及和上一代父母的比較,結(jié)論是現(xiàn)在的家庭比以往更加和睦。第6題普通高等學(xué)校夏季招生考試英語（北京卷）EHuntingThedaysofthehunterarealmostoverinIndia.Thisispartlybecausethereispracticallynothinglefttokill,andpartlybecausesomestepshavebeentaken,mainlybybanningtiger-shooting,toprotectthoseanimalswhichstillsurvive.SomepeoplesaythatManisnaturallyahunter.Idisagreewiththisview.Surelyourearliestforefathers,whoatfirstpossessednoweapons,spenttheirtimediggingforroots,andwerenodoubtthemselvesoftenhuntedbymeat-eatinganimals.Ibelievethemainreasonwhythemodernhunterkillsisthathethinkspeoplewilladmirehiscourageinoverpoweringdangerousanimals.Ofcourse,therearesomewhotrulybelievethatthekillingisnotreallytheimportantthing,andthatthechiefpleasureliesinthejoyofthehuntandthebeautiesofthewildcountryside.Therearealsothoseforwhomhuntinginfactoffersachancetoprovethemselvesandriskdeathbydesign;thesemengooutafterdangerousanimalsliketigers,eveniftheysaytheyonlydoittoridthecountrysideofathreat.Icanrespectreasonslikethese,buttheyareclearlydifferentfromtheneedtostrengthenyourhighopinionofyourself.Thegreatestbig-gamehuntersexpressedintheirwritingssomethingofthesefinermotives（動機）.Oneofthemwrote:“Youmustproperlyrespectwhatyouareafterandshootitcleanlyandontheanimal’sownterritory（領(lǐng)地）.Youmustfixforeverinyourmindallthewondersofthatparticularday.Thisisbetterthanlettinghimgrowafewyearsoldertobeattackedandwoundedbyhisownsonandeventuallyeaten,halfalive,byotheranimals.Huntingisnotacruelandsenselesskilling－notifyourespectthethingyoukill,notifyoukilltoenrichyourmemories,notifyoukilltofeedyourpeople.”Icanunderstandsuchbeliefs,andcancomparethesehunterswiththosewhohuntedlionswithspears（矛）andbravelycaughtthembythetail.Butthisisverydifferentfrommanytiger-shootsIhaveseen,inwhichmodemweaponswereused.Theso-calledhuntersfiredfromtalltreesorfromthebacksoftrainedelephants.Suchmethodsmadetigersseemnomoredangerousthanrabbits.72.ThereisnomorehuntinginIndianowpartlybecause__________.A.itisdangeroustohuntthere B.huntingisalreadyoutofdateC.hunterswanttoprotectanimals D.therearefewanimalslefttohunt73.Theauthorthinksmodemhunterskillmainly__________.A.tomakethecountrysidesafe B.toearnpeople’sadmirationC.togainpowerandinfluence D.toimprovetheirhealth74.Whatdowelearnaboutthebig-gamehunters?A.Theyhuntoldanimals.
