39、 top referees”。第33题：参考答案：C答案解析：要点推断题。主要依据在第三段。注意“converted to a standard match of 90 minutes”的含义，是指“转换成90分钟的标准比赛”。最关键的提示词为“a remarkably high number”文章并未涉及模拟比赛和标准比赛错误率的比较，也没有提及法国世界杯上的误判率，所以A、B、D项均无法推断。第34题：参考答案：A答案解析：要点推断题。最关键的提示出现在第四段第2句“Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the r
40、eferees were close to the incident.”，以及第六段第2行起“.it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance，rather than rushing to keep up with the ball，”。第35题：参考答案：C答案解析：词语理解题。猜测词义最根本的方法应根据该词出现的上下文，即该词的语境。该词上下文提到：当referees离incident靠得比较近时，就越可能出现误判，而当officials判罚正确时，他们距离犯规地点平均有17米。显然

Its beginning to rebuild the work ethic，which is much more imp
43、ortant”第46题：参考答案：D答案解析：要点推断题。文章有数处提示。其中第一段“.at least in getting people off welfare. Its estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.”，第二段“In the past four years，welfare rolls in Athens county have been cut in half .”，以及第五段、第六段都有提示。第52题：参考答案：B答案解析：辨别事实题。主要依据为第一段第1行始“Ameri
44、cans are proud of their variety and individuality，yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform，”。第53题：参考答案：A答案解析：辨别事实题。依据第二段第2行始“People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform.”可判断A项正确。第54题：参考答案：C答案解析：辨别事实题。依据是第四段“Primary among the arguments agai
45、nst uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them，”。第55题：参考答案：D答案解析：要点判断题。第二段最后一句的意思为：对于一名护士，理发师或是一名侍者而言，还有什么更加便利的方法比脱掉制服能让他们失去职业身份呢？本题属反向考题型。第56题：参考答案：D答案解析：主旨归纳题。根据第二段、第三段、第四段、第五段的开头可看出文章的主要内容。第62题：参考答案：D答案解析：辨别事实题。依据为第一段第1行始“Si
46、nce we are social beings，the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships.”。第63题：参考答案：B答案解析：要点归纳题。依据为第一段第4行始“Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties.”。第64题：参考答案：C答案解析：猜测词义题。根据上下文可以断定A、D意思相反，可先排除，B项太绝对，所以只有C项吻合原意。第65题：参考答案：A答案解析：要点判断题。依据为文章最后“Fina
