8.译为〃足以肯定的是,公司投资与研发力度与公司的幸福指数相关inwhich引导表示地点的定语从句,先行词为area.对比四个选项,ABC不足以说明此地点的真实含义因此,D选项,搭配前文area,构成〃总部所在地〃最为合理
9.[标准答案][A]explain[考点分析]上下文语义及动词词义辨析[选项分析H析解释[B]夸大[C]概述[D]重点强调根据原文〃…r ouldsomething elseabout happier〃cities9why firmsthere spendmoreonRD A选项explain常和后文why搭配使用

12.[标准答案][B]held[考点分析]上下文语义及动词词义辨析[选项分析]该句算是这一段的总结句,该段整体在描述幸福与投资之间的关系,而这一link就只能得出了,只有[B]held〃得出〃符合语境A resumed〃重新开始〃,C emerge〃浮现〃,D broke〃破坏〃13」标准答案][A]attribute[考点分析]上下文逻辑关系以及动词词组辨析[选项分析]该空是一个which引导的定语从句的谓语动词所在地,动词的宾语就是前面的主句,强调〃幸福与投资之间的关系尤其适用于新公司〃这一结论与后面〃所做决定会偏草率〃之间的关系,能看出是一个因果关系,因此答案选择[A]attribute与t搭配表示〃归因于……〃,而[B]assign t表示〃指派〃[C]transferto〃转移到〃[D]compare to〃与……比较〃均不符合题意
14.[标准答案][D]experienced[考点分析]上下文语义及形容词词义辨析[选项分析]此处很简单,前面有一个并列连词and,与前面的young一致修饰managers,强调新公司的领导年轻并缺乏经验,只有[D]experienced最合适

16.[标准答案][D]equally[考点分析]上下文语义及副词词义辨析[选项分析]这题是考察副词修饰spread,但是更要注意的是该句〃这种关系在员工幸福指数—的公司尤为明显公司似乎乐于投资那些相对快乐的员工所在的部门,而不是那些不快乐的部门〃中该空与后面的inequality形成复现关系,所以很容易判断出答案选择[D]equally
17.标准答案][C]while[考点分析]上下文逻辑关系[选项分析]该题是典型的考察上下文逻辑关系的题目,因此着力点应该放在上一段和这一段之间的关系这一段第一句明确说出〃这并不证明是幸福导致公司大量投资……〃,所以两句话之间是一个转折关系,选择while.
18.[标准答案][C]hims[考点分析]上下文语义及动词词义辨析[选项分析]该题可以看出是考察动词与at的固定搭配,arrive at是〃到达,抵达〃Jump at是〃扑向;欣然接受〃hint at是〃暗示〃strike at是〃袭击,攻击〃,文章中的at least和that possibility论证了这是一种可能,只有hint at有这层含义
19.标准答案][A]sh叩e[考点分析]上下文语义及动词词义辨析[选项分析]根据上下文应该选一个〃影响〃未来看法含义的动词,[B]是〃再发现〃[C]是〃使简化,使单纯〃[D]是〃分享〃所以可以均可以排除,A是〃塑造,形成,影响〃,所以A项是最佳答案

21、[B]remodel theway ofthinking根据题干Cortina定位在第二段典型的欲扬先抑,首段说coding classs不重要arent essential第二段z引出中心Cortina认为较早的接触电脑是有益的beneficial紧接着具体说明好处在于,他们就学习了电脑知识z就懂得如何去开发手机应用程序创作艺术,或者验证假设答案关键句在于第三句的比较It snot as hard forthemto transform their thought processes as it is for older students.对于他们来说与大孩子相比,改变思维并不难综上所述,[B]remodel theway ofthinking是对原文transformtheirthought的同义改写对比处为命题点
22、[D]interest根据题干“in deliveringlessons forhigh-schoolers、Flatiron”,定位到第四段其中deliver是gear的同义改写Lesson是curriculum的同义改写The high-schoolers getthe samecurriculum,but z/we tryto gearlessons towardthings they;re〃interested in(高中生们上同样的课程,但是〃我们力图以他们的兴趣来调整课程〃),说明该校开设课程是主要考虑到〃学生的兴趣〃,故选[B]interest
23、[A]help studentslearn othercomputer languages根据Deborah Seehorn定位到文章第五段最后一句But the skills they learn—.•…一apply toany codinglanguage,他们所学的技能……可以应用到任何编码语言中去选项[A]help首先体现了文章主体感T青色彩beneficial,computer languages对应coding languageo
24、[C]become betterprepared forthe digitalizedworld根据题干关键词the lastparagraph回文定位在最后一段最后一段第一句指出Flatiron的学生不会全都进入IT界因此马上可以排除A.compete witha futurearmy ofprogrammers和B.stay longerin theinformation technology industry(都在谈IT行业)第三句进一步指出这些学生将会一生〃被电脑包围〃(对应the digitalizedworld),第四句继续表明态度,越早学习电脑思维方式越好(且又——次进彳亍比较theearlier the better),[C]become betterprepared forthe digitalizedworld是对上述内容的概况总结
25、[B]persuade根据题干关键信息〃coax〃(Line4,Para.6),定位到最后一段第四行how tocoax themachine intoproducing what theywant本文通篇态度明确,对电脑级相关知识都是强烈的正面态度,只有A选项(〃劝说,劝诱〃)带入后符合中心思想其他选项;[B]frighten〃吓唬,使惊吓〃[C]misguide〃误导〃,都是明显负面感情色彩,故排除;[D]challenge〃挑战〃,即〃挑战电脑去生产他们想要的〃,与A比较后顺利排除
26、[A]its drasticallydecreased population首段通过数据对比2million和22000,同But连接突出数量变化,二段用crash继续总结,本题其实考查了对crash一词多义的理解(n.碰撞;暴跌),同时也考查了通过上下段的逻辑联系,来确定〃数量减少〃这一核心概念,而Adrastically decreasedpopulatio即为对这一意思的同义改写
27、[C]granted lessfederal regulatory power根据题干信息The threatenedtag和disappointed some environmentalists定位到第二段的第三句(题干是对2段1句和3句的概括),同时注意提问方式in that问及原因,在考研文章中,除了明确表示因果的关联词以外,句子本身的前后顺序即可构成因果关系接下来第四句马上解释hey hadpushed the agencyto designatethe birdas endangered,“a statusthat givesfederal officialsgreater regulatorypower tocrack down onthreats.他们希望能将prairie chickens归为endangered(濒临灭绝)这一类型,该类型将会让官方的保护力度(crackdown制裁力度)更加严格而目前这一期望落空,故反话正说,对应C lessfederalregulatory power(力度削弱),同时又是典型的比较级考点
28、[答案][A]agree topay asum forcompensation根据题干unintentional harm-doers willnot beprosecuted定位在3段1句,同时提问if则对应首句as longas之后的内容they had signed arange-wide managementplan torestore prairie chicken habitat〃签订一系o列管理计划去恢复草原鸡的栖息地,但个选项没有特别明确的改写,特别是B(volunteer toset upan equallybig habitat修建同样大小的栖息地)是强干扰,原文只说明要恢复栖息地,不能等同于修建同样大小的栖息地(栖息地的性质除了大小,还有许多其他因素),而第2句贝!J谈至!J the plan的要求:individuals and businesses that damage habitat as part of theiroperations topay intoa fundtoreplace every acre destroyed with2new acresof suitablehabitat.(因经营而损害栖息地的个人或企业需要pay intoa fund对应选项pay asum,同时compensation是对o replaceevery acredestroyed with2newacres ofsuitable habitat.的概况总结(而且接下来的3句再次强调这个fund的另一个作用是用来补偿土地所有者,再一次体现了正确答案的反复原则)
29、[答案][D]the states,根据题干managing the species定位在文章第三段最后一句states remainin thedriver1s seatfor managing the species可以得出,选项D the states在管理物种方面起着领导作用
30、[答案][B]the win-win rhetoric根据最后一段,首句谈Not everyonebuys the win-win rhetoric不是所有人认同win-win rhetoric,2句继续谈到不赞同的人的具体表现,最后Jay Lininger所说的话中,是再一次对不认同者的否定,既双重否定,,因此他最可能支持本段开头所提出的双赢的说法31D what deep reading requires cannot be guaranteed.解析因果细节题题干指出传统的时间管理方法不起作用的原因是什么根据题干定位到第二段首句指出the usual time-management techniquesdon tseem sufficient,是题干的同义替换,但要找原因整段都在分析过程环节,最终原因必然在该段末句提到直接定位到该段末句,指出深入阅读不仅需要时间,而且是一种仅仅通过有效无法获得的一种时间结合选项D,深入阅读所需的无法得到确保,是原文末句的同义替换32答案B make passing time fulfilling解析题干问的是empty bottles暗喻证明了人们在做什么方面有压力,empty bottles直接可以在文中Gary Eberle所说的话中找到〃The futurecomes atus likeempty bottles.../#其所说的话证明的目的必然o是为了说明前一句的观点因此,该题定位到三段trytoslot...but notthe mostfulfilling kind,该句就指出只会处理目标集中的阅读,这是有用的,但不是最有满足感的结合选项B使流逝的时间更有满足感,是原文的同义替换33答案D achieve immersive reading解析文中人物观点题,注意区分文中人物观点和作者观点题干问的是Eberle赞同为阅读设定规定性时间帮助什么根据题干精确定位到第四段第二句〃You dthink thismight fuelthe efficiency mind-set,but infact,E..…into soultime,意思是你会认为这可以提升效率性思维设定,但实际上这些行为帮助我们跨入到灵魂阅读时间对应选项D,获得深入阅读,属于同义替换34答案A reading becomes your primary business ofthe day解析细节题题干指出总是带一本书会起作用如果怎么样根据题干定位到末段中间部分carry a bookwith you at all times canactually work,too...so thatreading becomesthe defaultstate from which youtemporarilysurface totake careof business.,意思是这样的话阅读就成为默认状态,偶尔会出来管理工作(注意business并非默认状态,非主要事情)对应选项A阅读成为每天的主要任务,是该句的同义替换35答案B How to Find Time to Read解析标题题,即全文中心主旨通过题干,可发现题干关键词中time复现多次,因此可确定time为全文的主题词整篇文章都围绕阅读时间来展开,因此正确答案为A如何寻找阅读时间36答案B havinga familywith children解析此题是细节题根据关键词定位到第二段第一句Across generationallines,...including gettingmarried,having children…即成功的标志包括结婚生子,故而正确选项是B havingafamilywithchildren.37答案C attachimportance topre-marital finance解析此题是细节题根据关键词定位到第三段第一句Young people...to agree that couplesshould befinancially secure before getting married or having children...即年轻人认为夫妻在结婚前或者生小孩前应该在经济上是稳定的故而C attachimportancetopre-marital finance为正确答案38答案D reachalmost all aspectsof Americanlife解析此题是细节题根据关键词定位到第四段第一句…those juststarting...will increasingly spreadthrough virtuallyall aspects…即这些期待即将渗透到美国生活的各个方面,故而D reachalmostallaspectsof Americanlife为正确答案39答案D gettingestablished is harder forthe young解析此题是文中人物观点题根据关键词定位到第五段第一句…it isharder for youngpeople today togetstarted in life thanit wasfor earliergenerations.即与年长者相比,现如今的年轻人维持生计更加困难,故而D gettingestablishedisharderfortheyoung为正确答案40答案C His parentsgood lifehas littletodowithacollegedegree.解析此题是正误判断题根据关键词定位到第六段第五句Looking back...his parentscould provideacomfortable life forthechildren eventhough neitherhad completedcollege whenhe wasyoung.即父母即便没有上过大学但仍旧可以为孩子提供舒适的生活,故而Hisparentsgoodlifehaslittletodowith acollegedegree.为正确答案意料之中的小标题首先明确7个选项的意思首先应当把握本文的出发点,也就是41题目之前的关键句我们应该从孩子身上学习一些东西〃捉住本中心,每个标题都是提醒成人可以从孩子身上得到一些启示
41.C表达情感开头以问句的方式〃孩子悲伤时会怎样孩子生气时会如何他们的表达方式与大人不同,成人更多会选择压抑情感,并且会有不好的后果,比如致病紧接着最后一句算是总结句我们要找到一种合适的方式表达,像孩子那样重点在哪里整段不离的中心意思,重复的出现那就是情感的表达喽选项为C
42.E举例子的目的无非是为了证明观点但是从例子也是可以总结出想要表达的意思的讲到一个小女孩因为一个廉价的圣诞礼物就可以高兴,并且很快乐,就旨在讲小小的幸福再来看看例子后面的观点提到成人的世界里所谓的车啊,房啊之类的貌似会让我们幸福的东西其实不然所以一个instead直接把本段的中心意思表达了出来,那就是幸福来自于小小的事情对应选项E
43.A一句话出现在第二句问句之后,如果我们能够〃愚对不对〃那么一点点,我们将会有各种好处,那么这一段几乎大段的篇幅都花在这一句上了,主旨更加明显那就是去这样做吧Be silly.
44.B这一段讲到成人的世界里的确有太多让人烦恼的东西But asadults wealsohave theluxuryofzbeing ableto controlour owndiaries andits importantthatwescheduleintime toenjoythethings welove享受自己喜欢的东西也是很重要的接下来举例子,各种具体事例说明那些我们可以做的可以享受的事情,并且最后说出了他们的好处从前往后一直再说我们应该放松,享受所以啊,在剩下的可选择的选项中只有have funs比较合适了
45.D不要可以去想怎样才幸福,应用了哲人的一句话来说明这个道理,旨在告诉大家当让是过程就是幸福的了最后可以用排除法G寻求帮助根本未提及F选项可以直接排除那么对应关系,来看看D不要想太多〃无欲无求,本就是幸福啦〃最终选定D46参考译文超市旨在吸引顾客尽可能长时间的停留在店中其原因很简单顾客在店里停留的时间越长,看到的商品越多;而看到的商品越多,买的就会越多超市中出售大量的商品根据食品推广协会的调查,普通的超市大概有44000种不同的商品;还有很多超市出售的商品高达上万种如此多的选择足以使顾客面对超负荷的信息根据脑部扫描实验,需要快速的做这么多决定就会让我们难以承受大约在购物40分钟之后,大多人就不会再努力做出理性的选择了,取而代之的就是冲动购物——而这时,我们的购物车中已经装了一_17_this doesn/t provethat happinesscauses firmstoinvestmore ortotakea longer-termview,theauthorsbelieve itat least_18at thatpossibility.It/snothardtoimagine thatlocalculture andsentiment wouldhelp_19_how executivesthink aboutthe future.z/lt surelyseemsplausible thathappy peoplewould bemore forward-thinking andcreative and_20_RD morethanthe average/said oneresearcher.
