Nixon總統(tǒng)給出的最終期限已經(jīng)不遠(yuǎn)了，美國人現(xiàn)在正關(guān)注這可能性〃。相鄰語句

C、However,theMexicangovernmentdoesnothaveenoughmoneytodothe

work,andneedstospendwhatmoneyithasontheMexicanpeople.

D、AcidrainishowafamiliarproblemintheindustrializedcountriesinEurope.

A、whichtheearthmovesaroundthesun

B、thattheearthmovedaroundthesun

21

C、thatthesunmovesaroundtheearth

D,thattheearthmovesaroundthesun

【正確答案】D

講述的是一個客觀存在的事實規(guī)律，所以要選答案D。

第46題【單選題】

Evenwiththenewdevelopmentinresearch,onlyatinyofalltestsare

donewithoutusinganimals.

ANvariety

B、amount

C、plenty

D、proportion

【正確答案】D

【答案解析】本句的意思是："即使研究有了新的發(fā)展，只有一小部分的試驗可

以不用動物〃。因此答案為Dovariety和plenty分別表示"多樣〃和”大量的〃，意

思不合適。amount后只能接不可數(shù)名詞，而test是可數(shù)名詞。

【閱讀判斷】FiveneighborsatacentralMissouriretirementcommunitywhoareall

centenarians（百歲老人）getaskedallthetime：”Howdidyoulivetobe100?"Q:The

fivecentenariansliveinaveryfriendlycommunity.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】答案選Co題目說的是"這五位百歲老人生活在一個非常友好的社

區(qū)〃，文章開頭部分提到了"community（社區(qū)）〃，但該句并沒有說這五位百歲老人

生活的社區(qū)是否是一個友好的社區(qū)，因此判斷問題句的信息在文章中沒有提到。

去幾千年中，水星與地球和火星反復(fù)多次相撞，這在圣經(jīng)中有加載。
