27、cational【C19】_and income, such participation has【C20】_.(分数:40.00)(1).【C1】(分数:2.00)A.usefulB.controversialC.distressingD.hopeful 解析:解析:此处的 the_ signs 指代上文中的“儿童肥胖率似乎已稳定下来并有可能出现逆转”。肥胖率趋于稳定,并有逆转的可能,这是一个积极正面的信号,故选 D 项 hopeful“有希望的”。(2).【C2】(分数:2.00)A.underprivilegedB.affluent C.aggressiveD.innovative解析:解
28、析:more_与 better-educated 一起修饰 families,说明该迹象局限于什么范围。下文提及与之对比的另一组家庭 poorer, less well-educated families。better-educated 与 less well educated 对应,本题应选与 poorer 意思相反的 B 项 affluent“富裕的”。(3).【C3】(分数:2.00)A.stabilizedB.stoppedC.continued D.paused解析:解析:首段提及“肥胖率趋于稳定并有逆转的趋势的现象仅限于受过良好教育的家庭”,可推断贫困、教育程度低的家庭的孩子的肥胖
29、率应该还是继续上升,故选 C 项 continued“持续,继续”。(4).【C4】(分数:2.00)A.inconspicuousB.evident C.mischievousD.misleading解析:解析:后一句的转折连词 But 说明两句之间构成转折关系。因此推断 not_与 increasingly obvious 意思相反,故选 B 项 evident“明显的”。(5).【C5】(分数:2.00)A.adulthood B.childhoodC.fatherhoodD.neighborhood解析:解析:转折词 But 说明本句与上句相对。children neared _ 与上
30、文提及的 younger children 相对,故选 A 项 adulthood“成人期”。(6).【C6】(分数:2.00)A.DisputesB.Disparities C.RecognitionsD.Confusions解析:解析:空格后提及的 between rich and poor 可帮助我们在上文中寻找相应的线索。第 3 段使用了class-gap 和 class differences 来描述这种差别,所以应选择与 gap 和 differences 同义的 B 项Disparities“不一致”。(7).【C7】(分数:2.00)A.impulsivelyB.lonelyC
31、.lateD.prematurely 解析:解析:上文提及 make poor patients sicker(使穷患者的病情加重),病情越重的人越倾向于更早因病而亡,故选 D 项 prematurely“过早地”。(8).【C8】(分数:2.00)A.evenly B.unequallyC.disproportionallyD.speedily解析:解析:上文提及这种差异是早已有之。But 后面的条件状语从句表示在某种条件下,这种差异会造成严重的后果。因此推断条件句的信息应是消极的,故选 A 项 evenly“均匀地”。代入此处意为“传播不均匀”。(9).【C9】(分数:2.00)A.joi
32、nB.hamper C.strengthenD.stimulate解析:解析:上文提及“贫富肥胖率只是(only)很多健康差距之一”,only 暗含这种现象还不是很严重的意思。紧接着 But 的使用提示这种现象在某种条件下可能会带来更为消极的后果。故选消极含义的 B项 hamper“妨碍”。(10).【C10】(分数:2.00)A.timelyB.livelyC.costly D.friendly解析:解析:此处需要一个形容词描述 obesity-related diseases“与肥胖相关的疾病”。本句提及。这种疾病是人们努力去阻止(to stem)的。由此可推断答案应是一个较为消极的形容词
33、,故选 C 项costly“代价高的”。(11).【C11】(分数:2.00)A.psychologicalB.mentalC.socialD.physical 解析:解析:根据下文提及的 playgrounds,streets,sidewalks,walking,biking and playing 等信息,可推断解释发展出这种差异的原因应该是跟“身体活动”有关,故选 D 项 physical“身体的”。(12).【C12】(分数:2.00)A.divergent B.popularC.promisingD.convergent解析:解析:第 2 段已提及贫富之间肥胖率的变化趋势是不一致的(
34、the signs are limited to those from better-educated),再结合原文提及的 class-gap 和 class differences,可推断此处的 trend应该是不同的,故选 A 项 divergent“相异的”。(13).【C13】(分数:2.00)A.becauseB.whereasC.thereby D.unless解析:解析:句中 prevent“预防”和 drive down“降低”、childhood“儿童期”和 adults“成年期”之间的先后顺序提示 drive down future obesity among adults
35、 是 prevent childhood obesity 的目的。故选表目的的 C 项 thereby“从而”。(14).【C14】(分数:2.00)A.whenB.why C.whereD.who解析:解析:此处是健康专家需要弄清楚(figure out)的一个问题。下文的“lack of_ centers, playgrounds and”解释了弱势孩子得不到足够锻炼的原因,故选问“原因”的 B 项 why。(15).【C15】(分数:2.00)A.educationB.treatmentC.serviceD.recreation 解析:解析:“_ centers”跟 playground
36、s 和 streets 并列,因此必然属于和playgrounds、streets 类似的地方,结合下文的 walking,biking 和 playing,可选出 D 项recreation“娱乐”,recreation centers 指“娱乐中心”。(16).【C16】(分数:2.00)A.encourage B.dispiritC.forceD.restrict解析:解析:从句中的walking,biking 是对centers,playgrounds,and streets and sidewalks 的说明。上文提出关于弱势孩子“得不到足够锻炼”的问题,其回答为“yes,lack
37、ofsidewalks”也就是说这些场所是能帮助人们得到锻炼的。故选 A 项 encourage“鼓励”。(17).【C17】(分数:2.00)A.constructedB.distortedC.ranked D.felt解析:解析:此处需要一个动词表示这些家长与 the socioeconomic scale“社会经济地位”的关系。根据空格后表“位置”的提示词 high,可推断答案应具有“处于某位置”语义,故选 C 项 ranked“列为,位居”。(18).【C18】(分数:2.00)A.colleaguesB.peers C.relativesD.acquaintances解析:解析:本句
38、与上句为相对应的平行结构。因此,和 children 进行对比的应是与其平行的群体,故选 B 项 peers“同龄人”。(19).【C19】(分数:2.00)A.beliefB.tendencyC.facilityD.attainment 解析:解析:本句与第 2 段的 Among teens from poorer, less well-educated families 相对应。lower income 对应 poorer。答案应与 less well-educated 对应,故选 D 项 attainment“成就;学识;造诣”,lower educational attainment
39、意为“更低的受教育程度”。(20).【C20】(分数:2.00)A.declined B.revivedC.vanishedD.increased解析:解析:转折连词 But 连接两个对比的句子,上文中的“在社会经济等级中高的人”与“那些来自于和收入较低家庭的人”是两个相反的群体。因此相应的参与情(participation)应是相反的,故选与上文 increased 相反的 A 项 declined“下降”。President Barack Obama claimed progress Wednesday in his second-term drive to combat climate
40、change but said more must be done to address a generational problem. One year after unveiling an aggressive plan, Obama said new【C1】_limits on power plants, renewable energy projects and new【C2】_for green technology have cleared the way for further action in the U.S. and abroad, despite steadfast【C3

Change won“t be instantaneous, Obama【C10】_. “There“s no silver bullet.“ Indeed, many of the steps he“s taking are【C11】_, limited in scope
43、by hostility from both parties to putting a【C12】_on carbon pollution, which would require new laws from Congress. Still, Obama said he“s seeking to【C13】_the problem but cutting it up into smaller pieces. “We“re moving, and it“s making a【C14】_,“ he told a supportive crowd at the League of Conservatio

45、 discourage even bigger polluters from【C20】_.(分数:40.00)(1).【C1】(分数:2.00)A.productsB.expendituresC.emissions D.expectations解析:解析:文章首句提及奥巴马的计划是应对气候变化“to combat climate change”,因此,此处提及的各项措施均是能够减缓气候变化、对环境无害的。对于电厂而言,限制它们的排放(emissions)才能对环境无害,故选 C。(2).【C2】(分数:2.00)A.incentives B.restrictionsC.sacrificesD.
46、challenges解析:解析:此处需要一个名词表示政府对绿色技术的态度。下文提及此三项措施为采取进一步行动扫清了道路(dear the way for further action)。绿色技术不会对环境造成危害,因此,如果要推动进一步的(减缓气候变化)计划,绿色技术应该受到政府的推崇。因此,答案为 A 项 incentives“鼓励;刺激”。(3).【C3】(分数:2.00)A.recognitionB.abuseC.supportD.opposition 解析:解析:空格前有 despite“不管”,由此推断其与上文的积极语义(dear the way for further action
47、)相对。且下文第 6 段提及来自两个政党的敌意(hostility from both parties)。两个政党均对奥巴马的计划有敌意,由此推断他的计划遭到反对,故选 D 项 opposition“反对”。(4).【C4】(分数:2.00)A.convenientB.hard C.devastatingD.coherent解析:解析:本句强调只要我们迈出第一步,就能收获积极的回报(you start mobilizing larger and larger communities)。句中插入 even if 引导的让步状语从句。even if 常用来强调尽管会有些阻碍,事情还是会照样发展的。因此,even if 从句中的内容是对积极结果的一种阻碍,故选 B 项 hard“困难的”。(5).【C5】(分数:2.00)A.building B.losingC.evaluatingD.considering解析:解析:此题需要一个动词词组表示如果人们采取积极的行动,会带来怎样的结果。start _ momentum 应表示积极的动作,与下文的 mobilizing 表达的正面意义相吻合。因此。答案为 A,building momentum 意为“增强势头”。(6).【C6】(分数:2
