READING

Passage 1
1. A.
Details. Q What did the community neighbors' reaction to Felix's
impending marriage, according to the author's description, indicate?
According to lines 7 through 11, neighbors heard that Felix's day of being
single was finally settled, and set aside their animosity, but were united
in their enthusiasm to help with his marriage. That is, priority is given to
Felix's marriage.

2. C.
Details.
The portrayation of Mrs Dickson's character in the question suggests that
the author thinks she...?
According to lines 16 to 20 of the article, Mrs.Dickson made a long
statement that she could not be separated from her only child, and Felix
was forced to assure her that she would be married with multiple sons
rather than fewer daughters (i.e. that the man would move to the woman's
house). Because Felix was done by compelling, she was a bit of a perse.

3. A.
The main topic. Ask which of the following options is a general
description of what happened in the article.
The article is about Felix to get married, before marriage was forced to
promise to live in the woman's house,Felix's mother comforted herself,
said that her son moved not far away, he also has a daughter melissy, and
then every day at home hairline, the surface looks very calm, in fact, still
want son. Just after her son's honeymoon, she went to the woman's
house to see her son, and then helped with some work. The fact that her
son got married and went to the woman's house was a very important
change for Mother Danbury, who made some adjustments. So choose A
(notethat the verbs of the four options are used in general present, which
is a common usage in novel stories and news headlines, and are vivid
when replacing the general past that should have been used with general
presenttime).

4. A.
Details. Ask, depending on the context, what does the author mean
by"had their trouble for their pay" from the person visitingMother
Danbury?
According to line 32 of the article, these people are coming to condole
with Mother DanBury (right... The tone of condole with the article is
somewhat ironic, that is, these people are somewhat lucky to come to
Mother to mention this bad thing to see her sad, but Mother Danbury is
brave enough to say: "Men always want to find a wife, women do not come
to the man's home, men go to the woman's home no big deal, I'm not sad)",
so that these people in the purpose of the visit encountered difficulties
their trouble for their pay).
The correct option A, "agitating, A stimulating," stimulate or incite ，

(someone) to do or feel something, especially by arousing anger in the

nameof comforting Mother Danbury, deliberately came to Mother Danbury
to mention her son's departure from home, deliberately said something
sad in front of That means“ ”， him.

5.C
Separate proof-seeking questions. Which sentence proves that"Mother
Danbury's friends may not know that she has several feelings mixed up"?
Evidence on lines 55 through 60, outwardly , (ostensibly) she is calm, but
still wants to see her son，outwardly(her soul longed for a of this sight

son).

6 .C
Details. Ask Mother Danbury to work when she comes to Mrs Dickson's
house because she wants to...?
According to line 65 to line 74 of the article, when Mother Danbury arrived
at the woman's house, Mrs. Dickson insisted on staying with her and
posing as Felix, much to Mother Danbury's disdain, and she wanted to
have a part with her son who didn't want tosit. So even though she was
the best alpaca she'd ever ， worn as a guest, she got up to work

(regardless of the factthat she mightget dirty).

So she wants a part,that is, she wants to be the family's another member.

7.C
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the author what rhetorical
features are there in lines 72 through 73 that refer to "the prominent man-
made flowers in the glass cover and the shell-made house model on the
fireplace"?
Lines 69 through 74 say that Mother Danbury doesn't want Mrs Dickson
to be with her, but wants to have a part in her son's life, and
mostimportantly, shedoesn't want to sit in the hall and look at "a
prominent model of a house made of shells in a glass hood and a
fireplace." Glass here refers to glass dome(glass cover) and places wax
flower in a glass cover. Shell House is a model house made of shells,
stone, or cork. Both were popular home furnishings from the 19th century.
The most critical part of this sentence is the use of a staring before wax
flowers, staring， which means that the artificial flowers seem to be

staring at Mother （ Danbury, which is to make Mother Danbury feel

uncomfortable in a strange environment that is like a prison (line 77 uses

a her prison).
The echo of the C option means "to make a recall (something, action,
event) "(of an object, movement, or event) be reminiscent of have or
shared with.

8. A
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the rhetorical function of lines
74 through 79 what kind of tone is created?
First, let's translate lines 74 through 79:：

"When Mother Danbury put herclothes up around her waist, rolled up her
sleeves, and tried to get up and work, she was guided back -
itwasn'tappropriate to use the wordguidance, she was carried back to
where she was. Mrs. Dickson, while lifting her,kept affirming that she
would befrightenedby any work that would be done by theguests who
came to the house.
The scene is more dramatic, so option A is the correct option.
A)The dramatic tone of the character's character, which suggests that
Mother Danbury's view of Mrs. Dickson's treatment of her is somewhat
exaggerated.

9 .B
Details. Ask the article whatresulted from Mother Danbury's visit.
Evidence on lines 87 through 89, as it seemed to her perceived，in the

correct option B, Felix went home,and Mother Danbury felt felix go home
as before (her broken relationship with her son continued). This is how
she felt (not necessarily true) after she went to the woman's house and
did housework with her daughter-in-law and family. A Why is option A
wrong, because if you choose A，it means that Mother Danbury is worried

about what the gossipy neighbors will think, and after a day at the
woman's house, she feels even more worried. The whole article is just the
last mention of the neighbors, so the article doesn't show that this visiting
changed Mother Danbury's concern.
Added: Line（ line 89 of gossip is a noun that means "people who love to
talk aboutother people's private lives" (a person who would like to talk
about other people's private lives).
10 .C
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

Passage 2
11 .C
Details. Ask which natural segment supports the inference (conclusion
means a judgement or decision reached by reasoning) that "the effect of
sounds that are not directly related to the food you eat has on how people
feel about the taste of food, which Spence has studied".
Note that the conclusion in the heading does not refer to the conclusion
of a study conducted by Spence, but rather to the "effectof sounds that
are not directly related to the food they eat on how people feel about the
taste offood, whichSpence has studied" in itself.
lines 54 through 64 are some of the research and conclusions that
predation Spence, in which line 64 of low-pitched music refers to the
"voice that is not directly related to the food you eat" in the trunk.

12.D
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the author in lines 10 through
14 to give an example for what?
Lines 10 through 14 say that scientists have long known that strawberries
are sweet or light, and that the olfactory receptors in the noses of
strawberry eaters feel much about which molecule strawberries are (i.e.
taste is influenced by smell).
This is a study of the influence of taste on smell, and Spence's study of
the effects of taste on hearing is related.
13.D
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask line 19 to line 20 whatworks
with"thin, homogeneous, stackable paraboloid"?
thin homogeneous, In stackable paraboloid, homogeneous paraboloid is
a relatively rare subject word, meaning "double parabola”, stackable
means "can be neatly stacked", the whole is to say that the"pringle"
brandof potato chips shape is "double-curved parabola", and then thin
It is a relatively rare subject word, meaning "double parabola."”，and well

stacked, homogeneous paraboloid is a more scientific, academic

description of the shape of potato， chips.

14 .C
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask lines 28 through 34 to describe
the use of sound for...?
Lines 28 through 34 say thatSpence usesamplifiers and equalizers to
increase or mask a frequency, increase or decrease the volume. This
boost or muffle sound is a manipul state,ationso choose C.

15.A
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask about the rhetorical features of
the third natural segment (lines 38 through 53).
Lines 38 through 53 first say the results of the experiment, and then say
that this experiment is the first to successfully prove that hearing has an
effect on taste (i.e., groundbreaking).

16 .B
Details. Q. According to the article, what should Spence do if he wants to
do another experiment based on his own experiment on crisps and come
up with a better-referenced study of the potato chip market?
The evidence is on lines 65 through 69, and the packaging design on line
68 corresponds to the correct option B in ... the sound of a food package
being opened....

17.D
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

18 .C
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Q Line 72, the author double-quoted
the word" snackification" In order to...?
Snackification is a new term that has become more popular in recent
years, referring to a meal that does not eat three meals a day and is called
Snackification between eating less and eating more. (The explanation
found online is thatthe traditional threemeals a day is being challenged
globally as a new generation of eaters are opting for snacks rather square
meals.) It's' called snackification. . .
The word is not exactly used in English, so the author uses double quotes
when using it.

19.A
Chart questions. Q. According to Figure 1,subjects felt they were eating
chips witha slight reduction in volume and a constant frequency...?
The contents of the dry question correspond to the square in figure 1, the
comparisonobject ofthe A option corresponds to the middle triangle,
thecomparison object of theB option corresponds to the circle to the far
right,the comparison object of the C option corresponds to the right
triangle, and the comparison object of the D option corresponds to the
right-most square. One by one, you can see that the answer is A.

20.D
Comprehensive chart questions. Q. According to Figures 1 and 2,under
what circumstances does the change in sound frequency have little effect
on the subject's sense of the brittlenessand freshness of the scale?
In finding the two graphs, look for curves (i.e., relatively flat curves) that
do not change much regardless of the horizontal coordinates. The result
is a curve represented by a circle. Then find the circle in the text under
the chart that corresponds to most reduction.

21 .C
Figure Table title. Q. According to Figure 1,how many points did the
subjects give the crispness of the chips when thevolume was constant
and the high audio rate increased?
The description of the dry question corresponds to the right triangle in
Figure 1, reading approximately 85.

Passage 3
22.A
Details. Some scientists hold an assumption about octopuses and ask
Kuba, what is Kuba's attitude to this assumption?
The first thingto find islines 6 through 8, and some scientists presume,
octopuses don't know where their arms are or what they're doing when
they're gropingfor food.
Line 14 to line 23, and he laughs and laughs that it doesn't make sense
and is against common sense. But his attitude is not mocking,，the word

mock means tease or laugh at a scornful or desalination manner;to

laugh at someone, often by；copying them in a funny but unkind way, from

the article, Kuba is not malicious or scornful. So B is wrong. The

dismissive in the correct option A is "disdain for consideration" (feelingor
showing that something is unworthy of consideration).

23.D
Details. According to the article, which of the following statements would
the two scientists agree with?
Evidence on lines 23 through 26, the brain has to decide , first decide
which hand……，
（(decide) to move, and then start (the initiate) movement.

24.D
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

25 .C
Ask for an option to describe the full text structure.
Lines 1 through 11 of the full text of the presumption is widely accepteded
understanding..., lines 12 to 26 are questioned first, an alternative
hypothesis is presented, and then lines 26 through 74 are introduced and
discussed to test that alternative hypothesis 1 Whether the experiment is
correct.

26 .B
Vocabulary questions. Line 35 assess means assess "estimation,
estimation (nature, ability, quality)"
evaluate or estimate the nature, ability, or quality of
The evaluate meaning in the option is close.

27.A
Details. To examine the experimental design, according to lines 41 to 47,
the octopuses in the experiment could only find food by seeing the black
spots on the box and then reaching out with one hand through a thin tube
(in the middle, through a waterless air-only space to prevent the octopus's
sense of smell from functioning). Because the tubes are the same, so the
sense of touch can not play a role, and because there is an air belt, so the
sense of smell can not play a role, so can only use vision.

28 .B
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

29 .C
Vocabulary questions. Orient to line 58 means "make direction; is
direction
align or position (something) relative to the points of a compass or other
specified position
The align in the alternative means "put (the item) in the correct (or
appropriate) position."
put (things) into correct or international relative positions
The meaning of the two is close.

30.D
Chart questions. Octopus No. 6 was only correct 5 times, so it performed
the worst.
31 .C
The picture is a comprehensive analysis of the problem. Ask about the
transparent maze experiment, which of the following statements does the
data in the table support?
Option A is incorrect because all octopuses except the 6th octopus are
better than the previous 20 times.
Option B is incorrect because the 20 trials behind Octopus 6 trial perform
worse than the previous 20 6 times, not the same.
Option D is incorrect because all octopuses perform differently trial from
the previous 20 trials.

32 .B
Chart questions. Q Which of the following statements is true about
number 4?
A error, because numbers 1, Issue 2, Issue 3, Issue 5.
C error, because the first 20 次 trialsare best for numbers 5 and 6.

D error, because the next 20 次 trials behave significantly differently from

the previous 20.

Passage 4
33.D
Vocabulary questions. The declaration in line 3 declare means
"declaration (or declaration... is)"
note or assert (a person or thing) to be something specificed
Assert in the alternative means close.
assert means to do something to show that you have power
To assert; to maintain; to insist
Example:Throughout the Cold War, the Allies asserted their right tomove
freely between the two Berlins During the Cold War, the Allies
maintained their right to move freely between East and West Berlin.

34.A
Details. Q Judge White considered that the court's decision had ruled that
Parliament had ... Authority (power)?
Evidence on lines 10 through 16 should be selected option A, with the
power to dispose of Indian property. Line 11 of paramount power
corresponds to the authority in the authority trunk.

35 .C
Vocabulary questions. Line 20 pursue means "engage, busy (activity);
engage in (an activity or course of action).
Example:Andrew was made to pursue a computer career. .
Andrew is determined to work in the computer industry.
The council decision not to pursue an appeal.
The Committee decided not to appeal.

36.A
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the author of Passage 2 to use
the word" pleading" in lines 44、50, and 85 “in order to...?

Let's start by looking at the word plead, which means "begging, begging,
asking (making an emotional request) "make an emotionalappeal.
All three uses pleading to say "we'renot in the pleading",which means
that if our request(petition)has no reason to be unfounded, then we can
only rely on playing emotional cards, hoping that you white people will
sympathize with us, then we are in the pleading. It's all about saying,
"We're not here" and there's no reason why there's no basis, so we're
going to have to play the emotional card and hope you white people come
to empathize with us, and then we're there Because our petition is
justified, we are not in the pleading.
37.A
Details. Ask the author of Passage 2 to suggest that even a deviation from
(breaching) some of the provisions of a treaty could lead to ...?
The evidence is between lines 62 and 65, and one violation creates logic
for the second violation.

38.D
Details. Ask the authors of Passage 2 to accuse the U.S. government of
not understanding the loss of land by Indian（tribes.

The correct option is D"The loss of land by Indian tribes is a danger to

these tribes,and it is not enough to compensate them more for that."
，Evidence on lines 69 through 73，lands are taken corresponding to the

loss of the tribal lands in the trunk,，scattering our people and our our

continued existence corresponds to the correct option D in the poses a

danger,grieves... That a money payment is the same corresponds to the
no amount of compensation is is in option no amount of compensation is
adequate D.
In addition, the fault in the inscription is a verb, "blame, criticize, pick the
wrong"
(thefrom foradequacy or mistakes).）

Example:You cannot fault him for the professionalism of his approach.

The professionalism of his methods is impeccable.
39. B
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

40.D
Two comprehensive analysis questions. Ask the author of Passage 2's
claim to the last natural paragraph of Passage 1 (thepower of Parliamentto
repeal part of the contract with the Indians) what kind of unsatisfactory
(and unwanted) progress is represented?
Evidence on lines 48 through 49，immoral manner corresponds to the

right option D in the than on that of ethical principles,"Governments,，

when powerful enough"correspondsto the correct option D in

the"Officials act on the basis of the political strength. “Corresponds to
the correct option "I don't know.

41.B
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

42.A
Details. Q: Both passages cite (recourse) historical precedents in their
respective articles, but the two passages cite (recourse) precedents for
different purposes, so what is the difference?
We first go to the two passages to find the place where the precedent is
invoked and find the place where passage 1 invokes the precedent, right
from line 1 to line 16. The decisions of line 1 of this court and the one of
the cited cases of line 1 are precedents. Lines 1 through 16,（which mean

"in all cases, there is no dispute that Parliament has the power to dispose
of Land of Indian property, and in one case, it was noted in particular that
this power of Parliament is paramount"）(lines 6 to 13).

Let's look again and find that passage 2 cites precedents on lines 52
through 56. Line 54 to line 56 行 it has been repeatedly by the courts of

the United States,which is to sayprecedent. This paragraph is about the

power of Indian self-government, which has never been eliminated.
Several decisions by U.S. government courts have also upon this power.
So the correct option is A. Passage 1 cites precedent as an effort touse
precedent to assert that Congress has the power to deal with relations
between theU.S. government and Indiantribes ( authority) , and Passage
2 invokes precedent to assert the power of Indian）， tribes to govern

them .
Finally, please note that the month in the inscription is not a numberable
noun, but mass noun, so there is no title in front of the word, there is no
addition of s.

Passage 5
43.D
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the author in the first paragraph
what Ross's background as a scientist is for?
Here's a background. Doctors often kill a bacterium with an antibiotic, but
over time, the bacteria may become resistant to that antibiotic (an
evolutionary act) and become resistant, and then the antibiotic becomes
useless.
The author says Ross is a zoologist, not a physician. But the experiment
introduced in this paper is related to how to eliminate and prevent
bacteria from be resistant to antibiotics. This is the area of concern to
physicians. So Ross is doing interdisciplinary cross-border research,
and he's an outsider (but instead allows him to break through the
traditional thinking of medical professionals) and give an unsymical
perspective on how to solve the problem of bacteria's resistance to
antibiotics.

44.D
Vocabulary questions. Line 21 of the release means "emissions; release;
make escape"
to allow a substance to flow out from somewhere
In the option emit means "emit, shoot out, emit (light, noise, odor, or
gas)."
to send out a beam, noise, smell, or gas
The two mean close.

45.C
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask the main thrust of the full text
of this article.
A means that there is a theory about how antibiotic resistance develops
within bacteria. This article introduces a new study that concludes that
the original theory waschallenged. It doesn't match the meaning of the
article.
B means that this paper argues that drugs need to be developed to
prevent bacteria from collaborating with each other. It means that there
was no such medicine before, and now some of it will be developed. It
doesn't match the meaning of the article.
C means that this paper describes a study that suggests that a new
approach may be possible to treat bacterial infections (against bacteria
that cause bacterial infections).
D means that there is a common misconception about the effectiveness
of antibiotics in treating diseases caused by bacteria. This article
considers (discusses) this misunderstanding. It doesn't match the
meaning of the article.

46 .C
Details. Q. According to the article, of the many bacteria that use
siderophore, any individual bacteria may...?
Note that read lines 19 through 27 carefully, and then understand exactly
that the siderophores in the puzzle are the siderophores that have picked
up to the ironions,and the use in the trunk refers to the 23rd line of the
bridge cells that use 23 have picked up to the ironions Siderophores gave
pick up. Line 23 to line 27, said"siderophore production and use is
communal"and “"all ... .“”， contribute and all benefit." So if a bacterial

individual contributes (releases) a siderophore siderophore, which, after

siderophore absorbing iron ions, may be taken away by other bacterial
individuals;

47.B
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

48.B
Details. Q. According to the article, the bacteria that produce (also known
as release or contributecontribute)siderophores have a genetic
relationship with each other that can help...?
The evidence is in lines 28 through 32, and these two sentences go on to
say that as mentioned earlier, bacteria contribute siderophores together
and enjoy siderophores together. In theory, then, there could be free-rides.
A hitchhiing ride is when some bacteria are selfish and never contribute
to siderophores,only enjoy the siderophores contributed by other
bacteria. But it didn't actually happen. Why, because the bacteria that live
in the same community are close relatives.
Line 31 ... . are close kin corresponds to the genetic relationships in the
trunk，line 29 to line 30 of the which use siderophores made by others

without the contenting of the correct option B to benefit from... without

contenting in it.
49.B
Details. Ask the article to suggest howgallium nitrateaffects P. aeruginosa,
a bacteria.
According to lines 64 to 70 of the article, P. aeruginosa sent siderophores
out and wanted to get iron ions back through these siderophores.
Nitrate causes the siderophores sent by P. aeruginosa to bind to the ions
rather than to the iron ions, which results in P. aeruginosa not always
getting the iron ions it needs, which are useless to P. aeruginosa. Then
P. aeruginosa still want to get iron ions, but do not know is nitrate in the
troublemaker, how to do, poor it can only continue to send more
siderophores, and the production of these siderophores is the need for
nutrition and energy, the nutrition and energy that could have been used
for their own growth to produce these siderophores, resulting in their own
nutrition isnot enough, it accelerates the destruction of the entire
bacterial community (colony).
Line 68 to line 69 pouring their energy into producing ... Corresponds to
the B redirect resources in the correct option B.

50.D
The question of seeking proof. Ask the evidence of the answer to the last
question, see the analysis of the last question.

51 .B
Vocabulary questions. Ask the meaning of the established in line 73, and
we'll look at the corresponding verb establish, which means "confirm; ”
show (something) to be true or certain by determining the facts

An established drug is a drug that has been "proven to be effective and

has been widely accepted".
The proven in the option means close.

52.B
The subject of the rhetorical purpose. Ask about the rhetorical function of
the last natural segment. The last paragraph is that Ross's research may
also provide the breakthrough it needs to study the field of bacterial
resistance (lines 76 through 79). This is to say that the significance of
Ross's study (significance means "significance; importance "the quality
of being worthy of attention; importance).
 WRITNG

Passage 1
1 .B
The part from long before to folk music is the adverb of the whole
sentence, which needs to be separated by a comma and the main
sentence that follows, and there is no need or even word in the middle.

2.A
The direct reference to this sentence is interrupted by the message "Who
said this sentence", which is equivalent to an insertion inserted in a direct
quote, so there must be a comma separated before and after. The thinking
part is the accompanying adverb of the main sentence, so add a comma
before it.

3.D
Merge sentences. D Is the most concise and correct. C is not concise,AB
is logically wrong.

4 .C
It here refers to the banjo.

5.A
The title requires completes the explanation of Cotten's method of
playing,， then Cotten's method of playing is notable, then only ， A (an

unver traditional right-handed wayof using the right hand) can continue
the interpretation of the first half of the sentence（(Cotten is distinctive

left-handed).
6 .B
Transition sentence, which requires a transition to the next paragraph.
Because the next paragraph is about later, it is best to choose B"asshe
would a few years later". The other options are not related to the next
paragraph.

7 .C
Highfalutin is "flamboyant, do-it-it-or-do", an un formal usage and a
derogatory term. Recondite is "esoterical, obscure" and is generally
used to describe concepts such as knowledge, which is used here to
describe style inappropriately. Labyrinthine is "intricate, inexplicable,
maze-like" and the style used here to describe the hero is still
inappropriate. The hero's style is relatively complex, but not to the extent
that complex very and difficult to understand. So just choose complex.
8.A
start down. The following quotation is about the speed of thetrain (run so
fast)andthe possibilityof escapewon(won'tknow what
route),whichcorresponds exactly to what is in option A.

9 .B
Here herself refers to Cotton, which means "herself as the granddaughter
of a freed slave."

10.A
Along with is a fixed match, indicating "and... Together," in line with the
meaning of the sentence. There are no alongfor, alongside with,and
alongside for these combinations. To use alongside, just add sb or
something directly after it, and you don't need to add any prepositions.
11.A
Sentence sorting. The waiting sentence was that by the time she first
performed in public, she was already a grandmother. sentence 1 speaks
to cotton raised a family. "Sentences 2 and 3 refer to her offsor, and，

the interior of 2 and 3 sentences cannot be interrupted (because the such

refers to relationships involving one such song cannot be interrupted), so
the sentence waiting to be sorted should be placed after sentence 1.

Passage 2
12 .B
The singerate of nouns plus all the grids. A was said earlier,so speaker
can only exclude CDs in sing sings. CD Words do not need to be
followed by all the grids, do not need to express the meaning of "", so do
not choose A.

13 .C
Tense. What is represented here is a general state, not specifically
referring to something in the past, so use the general present time.

14.D
The principle of simplicity. Candidates are job seekers, that is, people who
look for jobs, so AC repeats with the previous candidates. The show
a demonstration for option B is also very long, but a demonstration is
enough.

15 .C
Before and after is two sentences, so can not be without a symbol or
comma, exclude AD,，B colon can connect two sentences, but require the
latter is a specific explanation of the former, but the latter sentence here
is a summary of the previous sentence, so use a semistation.

16 .B
The fourth sentence waiting for sorting is a high summary of the whole
paragraph, need to be placed at the beginning of the paragraph to play
the role of the beginning, otherwise from the first paragraph are not the
second paragraph of the transition, it will appear very sudden. The first
paragraph does not mention any recruitment, interview, written test
information,go directly to the secondparagraph, the first sentence said
"in the first round of the" screeningwill appear very sudden.

17 .C
The its here refers to the work of translation.

18.A
start down. The following example says that the Russian language order
(where the verb appears) is different from the English one, so it
corresponds to the syntax problem in option A.

19.A
Logical words. The last paragraph says that the United Nations is under
a lot of pressure to do the same job, and the next paragraph says that UN
interpreters' choice of words has a great influence, both of which should
be the logic of progress.

20 .B
Merge sentences. Only B correctly expresses the two-sentence transition
logic,and D, while the shortest, does not represent the transition logic.

21 .B
The full text presents a un interpreters job characterized by high pressure
and the need for immediate and accurate translation, so the
corresponding B option.

22.D
The first half is an If-guided clause, and the dashed part requires a main
sentence, with only D as the main sentence.

Passage 3
23.A
The principle of simplicity. As the sentence says before the long debate，

24 .C
Junction means "intersection, junction, hub,"socializing means
"social,"confluence means convergence, convergence, gathering,
gathering means "meeting of peoplefor a particular purpose gathering;
“The article is to express the "convergence of multiple factors", so you
should choose C.

25 .B
Parallel structure, in which the disrupt and flow are side by side, so the
disrupt also uses the verb original, which is equivalent to the structure of
to do A and do B.
26 .B
"It's not freshwater itself that's causing enough cooling, so there are other
reasons, but freshwater also plays a role, so you can't say that the
previous story，\ "totally“wrong",don't choose A,don't say the opposite

was true(can't choose（C),or that the generally held view is accurate (can't

choose D). The following knowledge says that this theory is not entirely
right, so it corresponds to B's found a B problem.

27.D
Account for is a fixed match that means "explanation", and the whole
sentence is to say that "the fresh water entering the Atlantic Ocean has
not cooled enough to explain Younger Dryas".

28.D
Logical words, the other models are described earlier. The verse says that
none of these models can explain the temperature changes very well. So
the middle of this should be the logic of the transition. Still translates here
as "however".

29 .C
That does not direct an unqualified clause, so AD is wrong, the inside of
the clause is a coherent expression, can not be interrupted for no good,
so B is wrong.

30 .B
As shown inthe figure, 100 years later, the ordinates of both images begin
to fall.

31 .C
The ordinates of both graphs are maintained at a relatively low level from
the initial downwards until 1000, so select C.

32.C
Here are two predicate verbs side by side, match and are the main words
of these results, and the two verbs can be connected bymatch and and.

33.D
There is no need or freedom to punctuation in coherent expression.

Passage 4
34.D
The main meaning is the same. The main phrase of this sentence is her
importance,sing sing, so the predicate verb uses is.

35 .C
Merge sentence questions. C's semantics are correct and concise.
ABDs are all very long.

36.D
From the later if clause tense (it is)youcan tell that the main sentence
should be used ingeneral now.

37.D
When the next sentence comes to an earlier, more famous test, the test
that should have written L in the previous sentence is not the earliest or
most recognized.

38 .C
The following two sentences are written about the two disadvantages of
the test, so corresponding to drawbacks in the C option.

39 .B
If you use it here, you'll be confused. According to the context, the original
intentionof the article should be to express program "program", said that
this test also has drawbacks, on the one hand, this test can not determine
whether a program has the ability to think independently, this test can
only judge whether a program can convincingly imitate the ability to think
independently.

40.A
The singerate of nouns plus all the grids. First of all, the two grids cannot
be connected, excluding BD. Second, users need all the grids to express
"the user's reaction", so choose A.
41.A
The disadvantage of another test in the last sentence is that the base on
users'reactionis not programmers'’ knowledge. That is, in this
respect, Lovelace test do a better job, so choose A, say" Lovelace is the
emphasizing the programmers",” just to take on the next sentence that
programmers are the best people to judge artificial “ intelligence.

42.D
The front and back are a complete sentence, so the middle can not only
add a comma (cannot select A), adverbs can not connect twosentences
(can not choose B),），so that the connectionis from the sentence, from

the sentence and the previous main sentence should be a comma and not
a half sign, so can not choose C.

43.B
The second half of the sentence said that"their objections" should not be
seen asweakening the value of Lovelace's influence, can be introduced
the first half of the sentence should say that some people think Lovelace
is useless, then corresponding to B (computers（are not lovelace, the

meaning is that Lovelace is too difficult to pass, all computers are not, so
that can not distinguish which is artificial intelligence which is not).

44.C
"undermine" means "weakened". ABDs are informal.
