19、t Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the 31 by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as 3
20、2 of a myriad of services, including labor, professional, transportation, and public-utility services. The 33 of all these prices make up the system of prices.

23、 and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and other factors.

30、类外貌的一种新观点:人类外貌并非完全由基因决定,相反,它在很大程度上是由文化决定的。这与大家所熟知的观点大不相同,因此可推知雷伯德惠斯特尔的研究理论是令人吃惊的,故本题选N项,startling意为“令人吃惊的”。解析:H 考点 考查名词。 文章介绍了关于人类外貌的一种新观点,因此可推测该句意为“他认为人的外貌通常是由文化决定的”。H项appearance意为“外貌”,physical appearance为固定搭配,意为“外表,外貌”,而D项complexion意为“面色,气色”,不符合题意,故选H。解析:E 考点 考查形容词。 根据上文提到的外貌不是生来决定的而是学习到的,可知此处意为“一
31、般说来,婴儿的面部特征是未成形的”,选项中E项unformed意为“未成形的”,故选E。下文也多次提到not formed,与此处构成同义复现。解析:K 考点 考查形容词。 根据下文中“新英格兰人或南方人具有某些类似的面部特征”推知,此处意思为“这解释了为什么美国一些地区的人们会长得如此相似”,故选K项,alike意为“相似的”,且alike与下一句的similar facial characteristics构成同义复现。解析:O 考点 考查名词。 人们传统的观点认为:人类的外貌一般由遗传基因决定,因此该句意为“新英格兰人或南方人具有某些类似的面部特征,而这无法用 -|_|-来解释”,可锁定
32、答案为O项,genetics意为“遗传学”;G项genealogy意为“家谱,族谱”,不符合题意,可排除。解析:F 考点 考查动词。 根据下文“实际上,嘴巴的最终形状要在恒牙固定后才会确定”,可知该句意为“嘴巴的实际形状并不是生下来就 -|_|-的”。故选F项,set意为“确定,固定”,set与后文的formed构成同义复现。M项produced意为“生产”,不符合句意,故可排除。解析:B 考点 考查名词。 前两句说到嘴巴的最终形状并不是在出生时就形成的,而是要在恒牙固定后才会确定,可推知该句意为“对很多人来说,这可能会持续到青春期”,因此空格处所填名词应为“青春期”的意思,表示时间段,故选B
33、项,adolescence意为“青春期”。解析:J 考点 考查形容词。 该句意为“这可能就是为什么在 -|_|-国家有些地区的人比其他地区的人更爱笑”,由此可知,此处指的是同一个国家不同地区的人们的差异,故选J项,single意为“单一的,同一的”;而C项separate意为“单独的,分开的”,不符合题意,故可排除。解析:A 考点 考查副词。 根据上下文语境可推测,该句意为“例如,在美国,南部地区的人笑得最 -|_|-”,空格处应填副词且该副词应用来表示频率,选项中只有A项frequently可表示频率,意为“频繁地”;I项commonly意为“普通地,一般地”,不符合题意,故可排除。解析:L
34、 考点 考查动词。 该句意为“在 -|_|-众多的大城市里,人们微笑和相互打招呼的频率往往比乡村和小城镇上的人低很多”,其中densely意为“浓密地;密集地”,作副词修饰空格处所填单词。根据常识可知,这里应指人口稠密的大城市,故空格处所填词应有“人口”之意,因此答案选L项populated,populate意为“聚居,栖息”。Ahealing Brestless Creckless Drepetition Emoaned Freward Gdissipate Hinfluential Ihandicap Jconstant Khasty Lappealing Mcourse Ngroanin
35、g Oinfinite The intimacy between man and nature begins with the birth of man on the earth, and becomes each century more intelligent and far-reaching. To nature, therefore, we turn as to the oldest and most 11 teacher of our race: from one point of view, once our taskmaster, now our servant; from an
36、other point of view, our 12 friend, instructor and inspirer. The very intimacy of this relation robs it of a certain mystery and richness which it would have for all minds if it were the 13 of the few instead of being the privilege of the many. To the few it is, in every age, full of wonder and beau

41、和之前的并列连词and,可知空格处应填和oldest并列的形容词。结合上下文和选项,可知H项influential“有影响力的”最适合。解析:J 考点 考查形容词。 空格前为形容词性物主代词our,空格后为三个并列名词,因此空格处应填形容词、动词的过去分词或名词作定语。结合句意:大自然是我们 -|_|-的朋友、老师和启发者,所给选项中J项constant“不变的,一直的”最符合句意。解析:F 考点 考查名词。 空格前为定冠词the,再由后文的instead of.可知,空格处应填和privilege并列的名词。结合句意和选项,可知F项reward“收获”最适合。解析:M 考点 考查名词。 该句
42、意为“对于少数人来说,这种关系在每个时代都充满了奇妙和美丽;对多数人来说,它只是一种 -|_|-的事物。”空格前为a matter of,意为“的问题”,因此空格处应填名词。结合选项可知M项course最适合,且a matter of course为固定搭配,意为“理所当然的事”,所以答案选M。解析:D 考点 考查名词。 根据空格前的否定词no和之后的介词of,判断空格处应填名词。该句句意为“天空只有在少数人的心目中具有一种变化多端的壮丽,他们在每个午夜的天空都能看出一种蕴含着创造力的庄严肃穆之美,不论哪种景象 -|_|-,都不会使那种美失去光彩。”结合选项可知D项repetition“再现,
43、重复出现”最适合。解析:G 考点 考查动词。 根据空格前的并列连词and和前文的form and reform(形成和重组)可知,空格处应填和compose(组成)含义相对的动词原形,结合选项可知G项dissipate“消散”最适合。解析:A 考点 考查名词。 该空格前为短语full of,因此空格处应填名词。结合空格所在句句意“对疲惫的心灵或,森林所具有的奥妙和无尽的魅力充满了 -|_|-”,因此选项中A项healing“复原作用,恢复常态”最适合。解析:B 考点 考查形容词。 空格前为定冠词the,后面紧跟名词spirit,再由之前的并列连词or可知,空格处应填和spent(筋疲力尽的)并
44、列的形容词。结合选项,B项restless“不安宁的”最为贴切。C项reckless意为“鲁莽的,不计后果的”,不符合句意,故排除。解析:O 考点 考查形容词。 空格前为定冠词the,之后为名词variety,因此空格处应填形容词、动词的过去分词或名词作定语。下文提到的never imitative or repetitious(从不模仿或重复)是对空格处单词的进一步解释说明,由此可知,landscape(风景)有着“无穷无尽的”多样性,因此O项infinite“无穷的”为正确答案。解析:L 考点 考查形容词。 空格前的并列连词but连接前面的形容词imitative和repetitious,
45、因此空格处也应填形容词。结合句意“变幻无穷的风景从不模仿或重复,但却总是 -|_|-拥有出人意料的新鲜美丽的想象力”和选项,可知L项appealing“吸引人的”最适合,且appeal常与介词to搭配构成固定短语appeal to,意为“对有吸引力”,因此本题选L。A. social B. complicated C. legitimate D. legislative E. overstepped F. committed G. will be H. would be I. obey J. exerted K. complex L. follow M. primitive N. explic
