24、 -200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(分数:20.00)_考研英语-843 答案解析(总分:100.00,做题时间:90 分钟)一、Section Use of Eng(总题数:0,分数:0.00)二、Many mobile operator(总题数:20,分数:10.00)1.(分数:0.50)A.tensionB.statusC.range D.significance解析:解析 词汇辨析题。苹果电脑公司正在与电视广播公司谈判,目的是对其现在所有的节目expand,即“扩展”,也就是要增加节目种类、范围。因此选 range,意为“范围”,又如:a wi
25、de rage of temperature 气温变化很大。避错指导:tension 意为“拉紧,将某物拉紧的行为或过程”;status 意为“地位,身份,相对于其他人的位置”;significance 意为“意义,重要性”;以上三个词均与原文意思不符。2.(分数:0.50)A.respectsB.retrospectC.prospects D.aspects解析:解析 词汇辨析题。前段主要讲到手机电视发展的良好进展,本段首句转折,指出仍然存在问题,必然是说手机电视作为新生事物,它的发展前景不是完全乐观的。选 prospect 意为“前景,前途”,即其发展前景依然不甚明朗,正好符合上下文的意思
26、。避错指导:respect 意为“尊敬,敬重”;retrospect 意为“回顾”;aspect 意为“(问题等的)方面”;这三个词的词义均不符合句意。3.(分数:0.50)A.so B.whatC.suchD.that解析:解析 结构衔接题。选 so 用于代替前文提到过的形容词,即前一句的 vast,手机电视的前景广阔,同样将其付诸实践的不确定性也很大。如:Hes clever,probably too much so for his own good他聪明,可能聪明到了于已有害的地步。避错指导:what、such、that 三个词用在这里均不能顺接文章意思。4.(分数:0.50)A.con
27、sultantB.consulting C.consolatoryD.consultable解析:解析 固定搭配题。consulting agency 指咨询机构,consulting“咨询的”。避错指导:consultant“顾问,咨询者”;consolatory“慰问的,可藉慰的”;consultable“可与之商量的,可被咨询的”。5.(分数:0.50)A.currentB.tendencyC.driftD.trends 解析:解析 词汇辨析题。文章前两段列举了各国许多手机运营商通过 3G 网络传输方式提供可供选择的电视频道或个性化节目,这就表明手机电视已成为全球的潮流和发展趋势,因此选
28、 trend,意为“倾向,趋势”,经常指普遍的或流行的方向,尤指在某一特定领域的流行趋势。避错指导:current 暗示路线或流动,如思想观点的,尤指特定时间或地点的典型代表,如:These words express the whole current of modern feeling这些词表达了现代情感的整体潮流。tendency“趋向,倾向”,暗含着以某一特定方式进行的倾向,如:The tendency of our own day is towards firm,solid,verifiable knowledge我们今天的趋势是朝向一种坚定、稳定且可证明的知识发展的。drift“倾
29、向”指其方向或路线依赖于一种如水流或潮流般的推动力,如:Political conservatives fear a drift toward communism in Latin America.政治保守派们对拉丁美洲的共产主义倾向感到恐惧。6.(分数:0.50)A.live B.patC.catchD.make解析:解析 短语辨析题;live up to 意为“真正做到,无愧于”,原文意思是:许多其他移动技术也曾经激发起人们很高的期望,但后来并未如人所愿。另如:We will live up to what our parents expect of us。我们决不辜负父母亲对我们的期望。
30、避错指导:本题另外三个选项的正确短语结构及含义分别为:put up with“忍受,容忍”;catch up with“赶上,处罚”;make up to“讨好,奉承”;make up for“补偿”。7.(分数:0.50)A.hittingB.beatingC.knockingD.striking 解析:解析 固定搭配题。strike a bargain 意为“成交,达成协议”。避错指导:hit“打,打击”;beat“打,打败”;knock“敲,敲打”;这三个动词均不可与 bargain 构成固定搭配。8.(分数:0.50)A.alongB.offC.forth D.on解析:解析 短语辨析
31、题。which 引导定语从句,该句谓语动词为 send 短语,与先行词 a selection of television channels or individual shows(可供选择的电视频道或个性化节目)为被动关系,send forth 意为“发出,放出”,是指通过 3G 网络传输方式提供以上服务。避错指导:send along 意为“发送,派遣”;send off 意为“寄出,派遣”;send on 意为“预送,转送”。9.(分数:0.50)A.competitionB.contextC.contestD.content 解析:解析 词汇辨析题。本句表示移动电视在三个方面还存在着不
32、确定性,除技术、商业模式之外,还有空格部分。content“内容”,是与商业模式等载体相对应的内容本身。此外,文章最后一句也有照应,提到了 technoloy,partnerships and content。避错指导:competition“斗争,竞争”;context“上下文,文章的前后关系”;contest“争论,竞赛”;这三个词均与原文意思不符。10.(分数:0.50)A.launched B.interpretedC.discoveredD.embarked解析:解析 词汇辨析题。第二段介绍随着 3G 网络的出现应运而生的一些产品,本句提到苹果公司开发的一款播放器,launch 意为
33、“推出(新产品),介绍给大众或市场”,符合句意。避错指导:interpret 意为“说明,解释的意思”;discover 意为“发现,发觉”,尤指获得知识或明白以前所不知的事情;embark“(常与 on, in 连用)开始,从事”。11.(分数:0.50)A.useB.spendC.costD.take 解析:解析 固定搭配题。take some time 意为“需要花费一些时间”,本句意为“建立一个包括技术、合作关系和内容所必需的生态系统需要一定时间”。避错指导:use 和 cost 虽然有“使用,花费”的意思,但不与时间搭配使用;spend 可以指花费时间,但其主语一般为人,后应接一个具
34、体的时间,如:spent an hour each day exercising。12.(分数:0.50)A.as ifB.even if C.if onlyD.if解析:解析 逻辑衔接题。本句应为主从复合句,主句提到 uncertainty in three areas,即在三个方面存在着不确定性,从句的大意是:人们确实想看移动电视,可以判断主从句有相反的意思,even if 表示“即使”,引导让步状语从句,符合句意。避错指导:as if 意为“似乎,仿佛”,例:She looked as if she were made of ice她看起来似乎是冰做的。if only“只要”,如:if
35、only I got invited, I would be glad to go.只要我被邀请,我一定会去。if“如果,倘若”,引导条件状语从句,如:If I were to go,I would be late、倘若我去,就要迟到。13.(分数:0.50)A.really B.actuallyC.absolutelyD.eventually解析:解析 语义衔接题。前句提到手机电视的发展前景不明朗,本句开始列举原因,首先,无法得知消费者是否愿意付费,尽管调查显示消费者对这一想法表示赞许。这里选 really“真正地,实在地”,起到了加强否定语气的作用,本句意为:没有人真正了解消费者是否愿意为
36、手机电视付费。避错指导:actually“实际上,真实地”,强调事情的真实性,如:Actually its we that owe you a lot实际上,应该是我们感谢您。absolutely“完全地,绝对地”;eventually“最后,终于”。14.(分数:0.50)A.effectiveB.efficient C.competentD.adequate解析:解析 词汇辨析题。本文主题句引出 3G 网络这一新的传输方式,并与传统的传输方式 mobile net works 做了比较,该句意为“电视节目通过卫星和地面广播网络传输到手机上,这比通过移动网络传输视频节目要有效得多。”effi
37、cient 意为“有效的,效率高的”,符合句意。避错指导:effective 意为“有效的,具有预期或先见效果的”,不强调效率的高低;competent 意为“有能力的,胜任的”;adequate 意为“足够的”,例:We took adequate food for the holiday我们为假期带足食品。15.(分数:0.50)A.for B.toC.byD.across解析:解析 语义衔接题。本句主要讲苹果公司力争增加其节目种类,因此与电视广播公司进行谈判,使观众可以购买(can be purchased)节日,为的是 viewing on the device,即利用该公司设备收看节
38、目。也就是说,观众付费是为了收看电视节目,所以 call be pushed 之后出现的应是目的状语,因此选for。避错指导:to 如果引导动词不定式,是可以做目的状语的,但之后是 viewing,所以不正确;by 通常引导方式状语;across 表示方位,做地点状语。16.(分数:0.50)A.additiveB.furthermoreC.anotherD.further 解析:解析 词汇辨析题。further 意为“更远的,更多的,深一层的”,本句提到即使人们确实想看移动电视,在三个方面还存在着不确定性,further uncertainty 意为“更多的不确定性”。避错指导:additi
39、ve“附加的,添加的”;furthermore“此外,而且”,是副词;another“另外的,不同的”,用于指区别于前面已经提到的一项;这三个词的词义或词性不符合原文意思。17.(分数:0.50)A.insightB.potential C.capabilityD.power解析:解析 语义衔接题。potential“潜能,潜力”;上文提到手机电视的发展还存在三个方面的不确定性,但是它的发展前景还是乐观的,本段首句顺接前文的意思,指出手机电视的发展潜力是巨大的。避错指导:insight 意为“洞察力,见识”;capability 意为“(实际)能力,性能”;power 意为“能力,力量,动力”
40、;这三个词的词义均不符合上下文的意思。18.(分数:0.50)A.adaptationB.addictionC.adoption D.adoration解析:解析 词汇辨析题。本段段首提到将手机电视付诸实践的不确定性很大,也就是说手机用户普遍使用这一服务的可能性较小,本题选 adoption 意为“采用”,即使手机电视可以得到推广,但至少 2008年前不会被广泛应用。避错指导:adaptation 意为“适应,改编”;addiction 意为“沉溺,上瘾”;adoration 意为“崇拜,爱慕”;均与题意不符。19.(分数:0.50)A.examinedB.tested C.verifiedD
41、.prove解析:解析 词汇辨析题。本段主要介绍 3G 网络这一新的传输方式,各国正在或将要测试或已建成这样的网络,而本题谓语动词为进行时的被动结构,空格所填动词应与该句主语 networks 构成动宾关系,因此选 tested,指 3G 网络在其他许多国家正处于测试阶段。避错指导:examine 意为“检查,细查”,如:The doctor examined her carefully.医生给她做了仔细的检查;verify 意为“证明,证实,通过提供证据或证词来证明的真相”;prove 指“证明,通过提供论据或证据来确立真实性或有效性”。20.(分数:0.50)A.As forB.Despi
42、te C.In spiteD.Instead解析:解析 逻辑衔接题。前文主要讲手机电视成为各大手机运营商积极开发的项目,并成为技术展览会上的主打之一。本段首句出现 however,意为“可是,仍然”,而且还有 unclear 这样的否定词,所以本段所讲述的内容必然与前文有转折关系,因此选 despite“不管,尽管,不论”,引导让步状语。避错指导:as for 意为“至于,就方面说来”;in spite 与 of 连用才完整,意为“不管”;instead“代替,更换”。三、Section Reading Co(总题数:0,分数:0.00)四、Part A(总题数:0,分数:0.00)五、Tex
43、t 1(总题数:5,分数:10.00)21.Why are some major oil companies mentioned in the first paragraph?(分数:2.00)A.To show the concern of these companies about oil problem.B.To prove what the author said is true. C.To illustrate the importance of these companies.D.To explain the cause of the oil problem.解析:解析 篇章结构题
44、。从提问形式可以确定本题考查论据一论点型段落结构,题干中的 major oil companies 是支持性细节内容,要寻找其支持的论点,需要仔细阅读首段内容,区分观点和事实。开篇首句提出观点:世界石油生产量将到达峰值,最终将下滑。接下来第三句指出:最近,几家大石油公司似乎收到这一讯息(石油生产量下滑)。之后,具体解释雪佛龙、埃克森美孚、壳牌等公司的石油生产情况。可见,作者提到这几家大石油公司是为了支持首句观点,故B“为了证明作者的观点正确”为答案。避错指导:从首段所给出的各公司的细节内容来看,这些公司对石油的生产情况都很关注,但A是对细节内容本身的适度推断,并非其支持的观点,排除;文中提到
45、major oil companies,可见它们地位举足轻重,这是不容争议的事实,显然不是细节支持的论点,排除C首段没有提到石油问题产生的原因,故D不是提到 major oil companies 的目的,排除。22.From the text we can conclude that the author(分数:2.00)A.is sympathetic to Shell.B.worries about the oil industry. C.takes a neutral attitude towards oil industry.D.is optimistic about the oil
46、 production.解析:解析 观点态度题。在第一段和第二段提出世界石油产量达到峰值,将开始下滑的观点之后,举例说明,分析原因。第三段第五句中出现了 dreaded(可怕的)一词,结合首段第二句中的 few people listened,可以看出作者对这一现象表示担心,故B为答案。避错指导:壳牌石油公司是首段提到的几个大石油公司中的一个,举例的目的是为了说明“石油产量将下滑”这一现象,作者只是在倒数第二句提到 It sounds as though Shell is kissing the oil business goodbye,并没有表达同情之意,排除A;作者在前两段论述较客观,但第
47、三段中的 dreaded 等词表达了作者对石油生产的担心,具有某种倾向性,态度并非中立,排除C;全文都是在解释石油生产量将下滑这一现象,分析原因,结尾处没有任何语句表明其产量将提高,表露乐观态度,D无根据,排除。23.What does the author mean by saying the “recent discoveries are modest“?(分数:2.00)A.People stop searching for oil.B.People decrease the production of oil.C.People use less oil than they used to.D.The oil exploitation is limited. 解析:解析 推理判断题。由题干中的 recent discoveries are mod
