答案與題解:
1.D 綜合第一句的大意,只有 D 選項(xiàng)"信息"填在這里恰當(dāng),A 選項(xiàng)的意思是"提議,暗示" ,B"語(yǔ)境,上下文" ,C"摘要".
2.B 此句大意為"理想的學(xué)生是為了學(xué)習(xí)而學(xué)習(xí)",只有 ideal最符合要求,故選 B.
3.C 本文講的是與學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)相關(guān)的內(nèi)容,A,B,D 均不合文意及句意,故排除。
4.D 此處要區(qū)分幾個(gè)介詞的含義,be returned with 一般有"帶著……回來(lái)"之意,此句意為 "有時(shí),被發(fā)回來(lái)的作業(yè)上只有簡(jiǎn)短的評(píng)價(jià),并無(wú)分?jǐn)?shù)".be returned by 意為"被……帶回來(lái)",而 for ,in 于此搭配不當(dāng),答案選 D.
5.C be responsible for 是固定搭配,表示"對(duì)……負(fù)責(zé)任".其他選項(xiàng)放在此處都不合上下文含意。
6.C 此句意思是"當(dāng)一項(xiàng)研究課題被選定時(shí),教授們期望學(xué)生積極去做".A 和 D 不合題意,最大的干擾項(xiàng) B 意思為"分配,分布",一般指一個(gè)整體被分散給許多個(gè)體,與之相比,C 選項(xiàng)更為合適。
7.B 老師肯定希望學(xué)生能夠在盡可能少的指導(dǎo)下完成研究。只有 B 選項(xiàng)意為"最小的",為正確答案。
8.D 首先排除 B 選項(xiàng),因?yàn)榇颂幮枰粋(gè)關(guān)系副詞充當(dāng)賓語(yǔ)從句的狀語(yǔ),而 what 是關(guān)系代詞,之后要看整句的意思,教授們沒(méi)有時(shí)間去給學(xué)生解釋一個(gè)大學(xué)圖書(shū)館是怎樣運(yùn)作的。A和 C 雖然符合語(yǔ)法要求,但放此處意思不通,故選 D.
9.A A 選項(xiàng)意為"尤其" ,B"本質(zhì)上" ,C"明顯地",D"很少地,難得".此處強(qiáng)調(diào)畢業(yè)生,A 選項(xiàng)較為合適。
10.C 此句意為"教授們期望學(xué)生,尤其是研究生閱盡圖書(shū)館中的文獻(xiàn)資源 ".A 意為"選集",B 為"集合",兩者一般都指文學(xué)作品的"集合",而此處是學(xué)術(shù)界的文獻(xiàn)。C 與 D 選項(xiàng)都有"來(lái)源,源頭"的意思,但 D 選項(xiàng)側(cè)重于"起源,開(kāi)端",C 更側(cè)重于"原始資料",為正確答案。
11.D 根據(jù)下文意思,A和B 選項(xiàng)可直接排除,教授們肯定是喜歡學(xué)生不依賴(lài)他們,不是不喜歡。D 選項(xiàng)的含義比 C 選項(xiàng)更遞進(jìn)了一步,符合題意,故選D.
12.A dependent 是形容詞,前面不能與 such ,much 搭配,D 選項(xiàng) more 放在此處構(gòu)成比較級(jí),但前文并無(wú)原級(jí)與之相比較,因此只剩下 A 為答案,此句意為"教授們?cè)敢鈳椭切┬枰獛椭膶W(xué)生,但更希望學(xué)生不要太過(guò)依賴(lài)他們".
13.D 此題重點(diǎn)在于區(qū)分三個(gè)有"除……之外"含義的介詞。A 選項(xiàng)一般翻譯成"而不是,并不是" ,B 選項(xiàng)意為"除去……之外",D 選項(xiàng)意為"除去……之外還……",此句意思為"美國(guó)的教授除了教書(shū)之外還有許多其他的職責(zé)",故 D 為答案。
14.B 根據(jù)上文含義,一個(gè)教授能花在學(xué)生身上的時(shí)間一定是有限的,A,C,D 不合題意,直接排除,B 選項(xiàng)為正確答案。
15.C 此題還是承接上文含義,正因?yàn)榻淌跁r(shí)間有限,因此學(xué)生若想與之溝通,定要等教授在學(xué)校的時(shí)候,或是提前約好。C 選項(xiàng)意為"接近,靠近",為正確答案,其他選項(xiàng)意思與文意不符,A 為"問(wèn)候" ,B 為"使……厭惡",D 為"依附,伴隨,添加".
