1、【答案】[C]signal

【解析】此題所在的上下文內(nèi)容的意思是：陌生人之間沒有交流，大家都只關(guān)注自己的手機(jī)，甚至不。

A項(xiàng)“票”，B項(xiàng)“允許”，C項(xiàng)“信號(hào)，打招呼”，D項(xiàng)“記錄”；選項(xiàng)中，只有C項(xiàng)符合上下文語(yǔ)義，因此signal正

確。

2、【答案】[D]much

【解析】第二個(gè)空格所在句子的語(yǔ)義內(nèi)容是：我們避免和其他人交流是件很悲哀的是，原因在與和陌生人交流，

我們會(huì)收獲o根據(jù)句子內(nèi)容，顯然是指和陌生人交流，我們會(huì)從中收獲很多東西。三個(gè)選項(xiàng)均不符合句意。

因此答案選much.

3、【答案】?plugged

【解析】該題所在語(yǔ)境的意思是：不知道和陌生人交流，我們會(huì)從中收獲很多東西嗎，原因在于—我們的手

機(jī)。A.打;B.引導(dǎo);C.插入，投入;D.帶來(lái);四個(gè)選項(xiàng)分別帶入句中，可以判斷出plugged符合句意。

4、【答案】[A]message

【解析】該題所在句子的意思是：這種普遍存在的盔甲(不和陌生人交流)傳遞了“不要靠近我”這個(gè)。

顯然這里考察了動(dòng)賓搭配的考點(diǎn)，而且空格處的內(nèi)容是說(shuō)“不要靠近我"。所以，根據(jù)send這個(gè)動(dòng)詞和空格處后面

的內(nèi)容可以判斷出，答案為message。其他選項(xiàng)均不符合前后語(yǔ)義。

5、【答案】[C]behind

【解析】該所要表達(dá)的意思是：…臧在我們屏幕的位置。A.下面;B.之外；C.后面;D.來(lái)自;四個(gè)選項(xiàng)分別

帶入原句，只有behind符合句意。

6、【答案】[D]misinterpreted

【解析】空的語(yǔ)境為：我們害怕被拒絕，也害怕我們善意的社交之舉被—成“怪異的”，只有答案D符合上

下文語(yǔ)義。

7、【答案】[D]delayed

【解析】空格所在句與前后句同為wefear…的并列句，故句意應(yīng)前后保持一致。前一句說(shuō)“我們害怕被拒絕,

被誤解”，后一句說(shuō)“我們害怕被打擾”，A選項(xiàng)帶入語(yǔ)義不通，B,C選項(xiàng)不符合該文語(yǔ)境，D選項(xiàng)帶入文中“我們

害怕被耽擱時(shí)間”，符合上下文語(yǔ)義，故答案為D。

8、【答案】[D]unfamiliar

【解析】空格處需填入一個(gè)形容詞修飾strangers(陌生人)，所以該詞應(yīng)符合陌生人的身份與特點(diǎn)，既是陌生人，

肯定是“不熟悉的”，故答案為D。

9、【答案】[C]anxious

【解析】空所在語(yǔ)境為“因?yàn)槟吧斯逃械哪吧?，所以?dāng)與朋友和熟人相比，在溝通時(shí)，我們很容易感到J

填入的詞應(yīng)滿足前后句的因果邏輯關(guān)系，不難判斷空格處應(yīng)填入一個(gè)消極的詞匯，故首先排除A和B選項(xiàng)，D選項(xiàng)

，，生氣的”和C選項(xiàng)“緊張的，焦慮的”，根據(jù)常識(shí)，D選項(xiàng)更符合陌生人所帶來(lái)的感覺，故答案為C。

10、【答案】[D]turn(to)

【解析】空格要求填入一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，首先需與介詞t。構(gòu)成搭配，其次需滿足“為了避免這種不自在，我們

我們的手機(jī)。”的語(yǔ)義，D選項(xiàng)turnto表示轉(zhuǎn)向求助于某物某事，符合上下文語(yǔ)義，故答案為D。

11、【答案】[A]dangerous

【解析】根據(jù)此處結(jié)構(gòu)protectusfromwhatweperceiveisgoingtobemore（保護(hù)我們以防我們觀察的東

西更加）,可推斷空處填入詞匯為負(fù)向感情色彩，A選項(xiàng)dangerous（危險(xiǎn)的）意思吻合，且和前文uneasiness（不

安）;security（安全）形成呼應(yīng);B選項(xiàng)mysterious（神秘的）與主題關(guān)聯(lián)不大，且為中性詞;C選項(xiàng)violenM暴力的）意思比較

極端，且不合題意;D選項(xiàng)boring（無(wú)聊的）同樣不吻合該段主題。故答案為A選項(xiàng)dangerous。

12、【答案】[A]hurt

【解析】該句意思為：當(dāng)我們撕掉創(chuàng)可貼，把智能手機(jī)揣到口袋里，并且抬頭行走，并沒有那么糟糕。

A選項(xiàng)hurt（傷害）、B選項(xiàng)resist（抵抗）、C選項(xiàng)bend（彎曲）、D選項(xiàng)decay（衰退）,其中hurt符合題意,itdoesn*thurt

sobad（沒那么令人難受）。因此答案為A選項(xiàng)hurt。

13【答案】[B]conversation

【解析】由上文推斷此處為研究者進(jìn)行的一項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn)內(nèi)容，根據(jù)該句后面一句中talkto可知，實(shí)驗(yàn)是讓研究對(duì)象

進(jìn)行交談，可鎖定B選項(xiàng)conversation（對(duì)話）,與talkto對(duì)應(yīng)。A選項(xiàng)lecture（講座）、C選項(xiàng)debate（討論）、D選項(xiàng)

negotiation（談判）均不吻合題意，故答案為B選項(xiàng)conversation。

14、【答案】[D]passengers

【解析】該句意思為：他們讓芝加哥火車上的通勤者和他們的交談。根據(jù)commuter（通勤者）一詞可找

到與之對(duì)應(yīng)的A選項(xiàng)passengers（乘客），B選項(xiàng)employees（雇員）、C選項(xiàng)researchers（研究者）、D選項(xiàng)trainees（受訓(xùn)

者）都不正確。故答案為A選項(xiàng)passengerso

15、【答案】[C]predict

【解析】該句意思為「當(dāng)兩位博士讓火車站的其他人和其他陌生人交談會(huì)有什么感覺，乘客們認(rèn)為……”

A選項(xiàng)reveal（揭露;曝光），多接負(fù)面現(xiàn)象，此處不搭配;B選項(xiàng)choose（選擇）不合題意;C選項(xiàng)predict（預(yù)測(cè)）代入文中翻

譯通順，文法符合;D選項(xiàng)design（設(shè)計(jì)）不合題意。故答案為C選項(xiàng)predicto

16、【答案】[B]ride

【解析】此處需要填入一個(gè)與commuters”上下班往返的人”相關(guān)的詞。因此排除A選項(xiàng)voyage“旅途”和D

選項(xiàng)flight“航班上文提到了“thesametrainstation"，因此排除C選項(xiàng)walk“步行”，選項(xiàng)B為正確答案。

17、【答案】[A]wentthrough

【解析】此處考察固定詞組。A選項(xiàng)gothroughwith意為“完成”,B選項(xiàng)"doawaywith”意為“廢除，消滅”，

C選項(xiàng)“catchupwith”意為“跟上，趕上”，D選項(xiàng)putupwith意為“忍受”，因此符合文意，能夠和實(shí)驗(yàn)搭配的

只能是選項(xiàng)Ao

18、【答案】[B]Infact

【解析】此處需要填入一個(gè)固定詞組，起到承接上下文的作用。上文提到那些放下手機(jī)，積極與乘客交流的人

并沒有受到冷落?？崭窈笾赋?，與那些沒有對(duì)話的人相比，這些人更加的開心?？梢娚舷挛闹g是并列或遞進(jìn)的關(guān)

系。A選項(xiàng)Inturn意為“輪流，以此”，不符合上下文關(guān)系，C選項(xiàng)Inparticular”尤其是，特別是"常常用來(lái)表示

舉例的邏輯關(guān)系，因此排除。D選項(xiàng)Inconsequence“結(jié)果”，表示因果的邏輯關(guān)系，因此排除。所以正確答案為B

選項(xiàng)infact"事實(shí)上

19、【答案】網(wǎng)since
