1、[RI]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：文章提到的show...somethingnew>wanttoshowothers的意思都是想

展示買到的新東西。且文段最后一句提到了aboast,其意思是炫耀，與選項(xiàng)B的

Showoff同義，故確定B為答案。

2、[R2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點(diǎn)解析:本段提到的inthebackgroundsmakeyourbackgroundmore

interesting>behindyourback等的表達(dá)就是說明本段的建議就是讓你自拍時創(chuàng)造更

具創(chuàng)意的背景，E中的Creativebackground均是文中的原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，故確定七為答

案。

3、[R3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段反復(fù)提及natural這一個詞，因此可以把答案初步確定在同樣出

現(xiàn)了natural這個詞的選項(xiàng)F上。本段又提到的不要化妝，不用穿最好的衣服，還

有不用濾鏡等等的做法的意思就是在強(qiáng)調(diào)自拍要自然，故確定選項(xiàng)F為答案。

4、[R4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段表達(dá)的核心是扮鬼臉，A項(xiàng)Makingfaces表達(dá)的正是這個意思，

且與文中提至U的trymakingfunnyfaceshowfunnyyourfacesare>makedifferent

faces等表達(dá)相對應(yīng)，因此確定A為答案。

5、[R5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段提到的filter、black-and-whitefunction>asepiafunctionchange

thecolors等表達(dá)都是與照片的顏色效果有關(guān)，綜觀各選項(xiàng)，只有C中的color

effect能很好地將這些概括起來，故確定C為止確答案。

6、[RI]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段提到的beingabeginner、thefounder等關(guān)鍵詞說明本段的核心與

成為先驅(qū)者有關(guān)。綜觀各項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)G”要做第一個”最貼近本段大意，其中的the

first與這些關(guān)鍵詞相對應(yīng)，故選Go

7、[R2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析；本段的核心詞語DonHfollowthecrowd>Takeyourowndecisions^

don,tbeafraidlosayno強(qiáng)調(diào)的是不要隨大流，要自己做決定。D中的conformi〔y有

“從眾”的意思，而Say“No”toconformity能很好地表達(dá)出本段的主旨，故選D。

8、[R31

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析?：本段倒數(shù)第二句為主題句，建議永遠(yuǎn)也不要做你不想要做的事情，也

就是說，做你想要做的就好。綜觀各項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)B“想做什么就去做什么”最能表達(dá)出

這個意思，故選B。

9、[R4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段多次提到了goal這一個關(guān)鍵詞。綜觀各選項(xiàng)，E中的dreams可

與之對應(yīng)，同時dreams也是文中的原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，而且Followyourdreams也與follow

theirowngoals的表達(dá)相似,故選E。

10、[R5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段首句為主題句，大意是每天都要培養(yǎng)積極思維是每一個精神強(qiáng)大

的人都會做的事情。文中的seetheglasshalf-full、lookforsomethinggood都體現(xiàn)了

積極的思維，各選項(xiàng)中，A中的positively最能傳達(dá)出這個意思，且Think

positively與主題句的nourishpositivethoughts為同義表達(dá)，故選A。

11、[RI]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段首句說，想讓別人喜歡你，最需耍避免的事情之一就是取笑別人

的錯誤。各選項(xiàng)中，A項(xiàng)比較符合本段主題，Don'tmakefunofothers與本段主題

句中的avoid...laughatpeople'smistakes同義,故本題選A。

12、[R2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段首句是主題句，提到了想讓別人喜歡你，你就應(yīng)該要讓別人感到

放松，沒有逼迫感。綜觀各項(xiàng)，G項(xiàng)“保持冷靜”最貼近本段大意，且G還復(fù)現(xiàn)了最

后一句的staycalm,故為答案。

13、[R3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：首句是主題句，意思是你可以與朋友，親人談?wù)撃愕膯栴}，但是不要

跟陌生人談?wù)?。D中的talkaboutyourproblems與本句中的discussyourproblems同

義，且本段提到了They'don'tcareaboutyourproblems,也暗示不要和陌生人討論

你的問題，故選D。

14、[R4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：從本段提到的Don'tbemean、Kindpeopleit'seasiertobekindthan

mean等表達(dá)可以看出本段主要與kind（友善）有關(guān)，據(jù)此可以把答案初步鎖定在出

現(xiàn)了kind這個關(guān)鍵詞的C項(xiàng)和E項(xiàng)上。本段說的是與人交往要友善。但并沒有指

明具體要通過什么方式達(dá)到和善，C的概括比E更準(zhǔn)確，故木題選

15、[R5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段第二句是主題句，說的是不要對自己的過錯和缺點(diǎn)那么較真，這

樣才能讓別人更加喜歡你。F中的Don'tbesoserious與該句提到的Beingnotso

seriousto...同義。且下文提到的要有幽默感，興受別人善意的玩笑都是在強(qiáng)調(diào)

不要太過較真，故本題選F。

16、[RI]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段最后一句為主題句，提出的判斷標(biāo)準(zhǔn)就是你是否感覺你的朋友在

利用你，其中usingyou和選項(xiàng)F中的takingadvantageofyou同義，故選F。

17、[R2]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：從文段提到的“me,me,andmesyndrome"、craveattention>jealous

when...doesn,tnoticethem>envy、envious等表達(dá)可以看出來，本段講的判斷標(biāo)準(zhǔn)

與關(guān)注自己有關(guān)。綜觀各項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)A“他們主要只關(guān)注他們自己”最貼近本段大意，

故答案選A。

18、[R3]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識點(diǎn)解析：本段多次重復(fù)提到mistake這一個詞，因此可以把答案初步鎖定在同

樣出現(xiàn)了mistake這一個詞的選項(xiàng)G上。從文中提到的lakeresponsibilityfor>

irresponsible>accepttheirmistakesadmitthem等表達(dá)可以看出，本段與對待錯誤

的態(tài)度有關(guān)，各選項(xiàng)中只有G項(xiàng)涉及對待犯錯的態(tài)度，故選G。

19、[R4]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)本段第一句提到的takecontrolofyourlife>第二句提到的treat

youlikeyou'retheirproperty,以及最后一句的lakeyourfreedomaway,可看出本段

主要與控制欲、占有欲過強(qiáng)有關(guān)，E項(xiàng)的manipulative有“愛擺布人的”之意，能很

好地表達(dá)這個主題，故本題選E。

20、[R5]

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：從本段的tellothershowbadyouare和giveawayyoursecret等描述可

知，這些朋友喜歡背后搬弄是非，說人閑話。綜觀各項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)D“他們愛傳流言蜚

語''最符合本段大意，gossip表示“說閑話，愛八卦，搬弄是非”之意，正好能概括

本段所描述的壞朋友的行為特征，故本題選D。

1、CMEGroup

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：F

知識點(diǎn)解析：CMEGroup出現(xiàn)在文中第一段。該段最后一句說到，這兩個曾經(jīng)隔

市相望的競爭對手?(指CME和CBOT)成為了如今的芝加哥交易所集團(tuán)(CME

Group),從美國國債期貨到豬脯肉，什么東西都能夠交易。F是該句的同義表達(dá)，

其中hasmanytypesoftrade對應(yīng)原文的tradeeverything,而Treasurybondfutures

和porkbellies均為原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，故確定F為本題答案。

2、UrsRoth

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：UrsRoth出現(xiàn)在文中第四段。該段中UrsRoth表示，由于國內(nèi)市場很

小，瑞士不得不在國際上爭奪公開市場。D項(xiàng)是該句原文的同義表達(dá)，其中

competefor對應(yīng)文中的fightfor,而globalopenmarket則是原文openmarketsonan

internationalscale的同義替換，故確定D為本題答案。

3、Euronext

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：Euronext出現(xiàn)在文中第六段。該段說到，歐洲期貨交易所在歐洲五個

國家經(jīng)營交易所，這種經(jīng)營方式同樣顯現(xiàn)了通用語言的重要性。換言之，通用語對

交易所是有重要意義的。A項(xiàng)表達(dá)了這個意思，其中isofsignificancefor意為

“對...有重要意思”，是對文中illustratestheimportanceof的轉(zhuǎn)述，故本題答案選

Ao

4、ChristineLagarde

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點(diǎn)解析：ChrislineLagarde出現(xiàn)在文中第六段。該段最后一句提到Christine

Lagarde,說她是法國式慣例(在公共場合使用法語)的?個例外，用法語演講時常夾

雜著些英語詞語。E項(xiàng)表達(dá)了這個意思，其中deliversspeeches…mixedwith…是原

文sprinklesherspeecheswith…的同義表達(dá)，故本題選E。

5、MiFTD

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：MiFID出現(xiàn)在文中最后一段。該段說，一條名為MiFID的新法規(guī)將

在歐洲開始執(zhí)行，旨在增加金融市場間的競爭和其透明度。B中的promote與原文

的increase同義，financialmarket、transparency和competition均是文中關(guān)鍵詞的復(fù)

現(xiàn)，故確定B為本題答案。

6、Dr.Katz

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：E

知識點(diǎn)解析：Dr.Katz出現(xiàn)在第二段和第三段，解題句在第二段。在該段中

Dr.Kalz說，這種習(xí)慣（指假裝打電話）是技術(shù)發(fā)展過程中產(chǎn)生的新怪癖，它滋生于

這樣一種文化土壤：人們長期以形象之名進(jìn)行著各種形式的偽裝?？梢?，假裝打電

話受到了這種文化的影響。E項(xiàng)正表達(dá)了這個意思，其中aculturewherethereare

manyformsofpretending是對原文aculturethathaslongembracedvariousformsof

pretending的同義轉(zhuǎn)述.故E為本題答案。

7、ChristineRosen

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：G

知識點(diǎn)解析：ChristineRosen出現(xiàn)在文中第四段。在該段開頭，她說手機(jī)可以讓人

向一個陌生人展示自己均屬于某一組織。G概述了ChristineRosen這句話的意思，

其中phonecall對應(yīng)原文的cellphone,而enablespeopletoshowwhattheybelongto

是對原文中allowspeopletoshowstrangersthattheybelong…的轉(zhuǎn)述.故本題答案為

Go

8、MarkKonchar

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點(diǎn)解析：MarkKonchar出現(xiàn)在文中第五段。該段中MarkKonchar說他猜當(dāng)時

人們可能會覺得他很奇怪，疑惑為什么他會坐在車?yán)锩妗項(xiàng)是對原文中這句話的

同義轉(zhuǎn)述，故為答案。

9、YesscniaMorales

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析：YesseniaMorales出現(xiàn)在文中第六段。該段先是說許多婦女在對自己

的人身安全感到擔(dān)心時通常會假裝通話。接下來以YesseniaMorales假裝打電話的

例子來說明。A中的afakephonecall對應(yīng)原文的fakecellphonecalls和calleda

non-existentfriend,而physicalsafety是文中的原詞夏現(xiàn)，同時概括了Yessenia

Morales說的beingfollowedbyagroupofmeno故確定A為本題答案。

10、MichaelMcEachern

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點(diǎn)解析：MichaelMcEachern出現(xiàn)在文中坡后一段。該段最后一句提到，

MichaelMcEachern發(fā)現(xiàn)在沒有通行證的時候假裝通話可以幫助他進(jìn)入某個教士游

戲的會員俱樂部。D正表達(dá)了這個意思，其中canhelphimgetinto…是文中a

usefulwaytogetto的同義轉(zhuǎn)述,withoutapass與原文的doesn'thaveapass同義，

故確定D為本題答案。
