Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and
mark A, B, C or D on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)
Though not biologically related, friends are as “related” as fourth cousins,
sharing about 1% of genes. That is _
(1)_a study, published from the University of
California and Yale University in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,
has__
(2)_.
The study is a genome-wide analysis conducted _(3)__1,932 unique subjects which
__(4)__pairs of unrelated friends and unrelated strangers. The same people were used
in both_(5)_.
While 1% may seem_(6)_,it is not so to a geneticist. As James Fowler, professor
of medical genetics at UC San Diego, says, “Most people do not even _(7)_their fourth
cousins but somehow manage to select as friends the people who_(8)_our kin.”
The study_(9)_found that the genes for smell were something shared in friends
but not genes for immunity .Why this similarity exists in smell genes is difficult

friends and strangers, were taken from the same population.
1. [A] when [B] why [C] how [D] what
【答案】[D] what
【解析】该题考查的是语法知识。
根据句子结构和选项的特点,可以判断出空格处应填
从属连词引导从句;再根据句子的内容,可以看出该从句是一项研究的相关内容(what),不
是指研究的时间(when), 原因(why)和方式(how),因此,该题的答案为 what。
2. [A] defended [B] concluded [C] withdrawn [D] advised
【答案】[B] concluded
【解析】从此题所在的句子的前后内容可以判断出,that is_______ 中的 that 是指第
一句话的内容(朋友与我们基因上的相关性),很显然是研究得出的结论。
因此,答案为
concluded。
3. [A] for [B] with [C] on [D] by
【答案】[C] on
【解析】根据空格所在句子的内容(研究对 1932 分独特的受试者进行分析)判断出进行
分析的对象是 1932 unique subjects。
conduct analysis on…是固定表达。
4. [A] compared [B] sought [C] separated [D] connected
【答案】[A] compared
【解析】该空格所在的句子是 which 引导的定语从句修饰 study,意思是:
对几对基因
不相关的朋友和陌生人进行_______。
因为“研究”的内容是关于朋友间基因上的相关性问
题,所以完整的意思应该是:
对几对基因不相关的朋友和陌生人进行比较。
所以最佳答案为
compared。
5. [A] tests [B] objects [C]samples [D] examples
【答案】[C] samples
【解析】根据空格的前后内容判断,到第五个空为止,文章都在讲实验过程,和实验对
象,第五个空格所在句子的内容是:
相同的人们都用于实验中的这两类______。
所以根据上
下文语境和内容,应该选与实验对象相对应的 samples(样例).因此,答案是 samples。
6. [A] insignificant [B] unexpected [C]unbelievable [D] incredible
【答案】[A] insignificant
【解析】空的语境为:
尽管这 1%看起来似乎____,但是遗传学家可不这么认为。
空前
后形成对比转折的逻辑关系,而从后文列举的例子中可知遗传学家 James Fowler 对这 1%基
因的态度是肯定的,故答案为 A。
7. [A] visit [B] miss [C] seek [D] know
【答案】[D] know
【解析】空的语境为:
大多数人甚至不____他们隔三代的表亲,但却设法选择那些____
我们亲戚的人作为朋友。
填入的词必须满足前后句之间的转折逻辑关系,四个选项带入,只
有 D 选项符合上下文语义。
8. [A] resemble [B] influence [C] favor [D] surpass
【答案】[A] resemble
【解析】空的语境为:
大多数人甚至不认识他们隔三代的表亲,但却设法选择那些____
我们亲戚的人作为朋友。
根据全文中心:
基因上的相似性,可知本题选择 A。
9. [A] again [B] also [C] instead [D] thus
【答案】[B] also
【解析】空所在的句子开头用“The study…”,显然这是对上文话题的继续阐述,前文
指出研究发现朋友与我们有 1%的基因关系,而空所在句“the genes for smell were
something shared in friends”在进一步详细讨论该话题,前后之间是顺接关系,故答案
为 B。
10. [A] Meanwhile [B] Furthermore [C] Likewise [D] Perhaps
【答案】[D] Perhaps
【解析】从选项和文字中句子结构可以判断,空格处要求填入一个能够体现前后两个句
子逻辑关系的副词,空前的句子谈到“为什么在嗅觉基因方面存在相似性还很难解释”,空
后却紧接着对此得出一个相关结论,很明显是矛盾的,所以此结论只能是一种不确定的推测,
故答案为 D。
11. [A] about [B] to [C]from [D]like
【答案】[B] to
【解析】该题为介词选择题。
后半句出现比较级,可见是和前文形成比较关系,因此和
上半句介词保持一致,用介词 to。
该句翻译:
它(这种相似性)吸引我们到相同的环境,并
且使我们更为相似。
因此答案为 to。
12. [A] drive [B] observe [C] confuse [D]limit
【答案】[A] drive
【解析】该句意思为:
很多机制共同作用,从而_____我们选择基因相似的朋友,_____
和_____交朋友的“功能关系”。
根据上下文可知,此处所填入动词需符合结构_____sb. in
doing sth,B 选项 observe(观察,遵守)和 C 选项 confuse(困惑)均无此用法。
符合该结构
只有 A 选项 drive(驱使)和 D 选项 limit(限制)。
根据上下文可得知:
这些机制驱使我们选
择基因相似的朋友,符合文章主题。
如果选限制则为反向干扰。
因此答案为 drive。
13. [A] according to [B] rather than [C] regardless of [D] along with
【答案】[B] rather than
【解析】所填词为逻辑关系短语,空前说选择基因相似的朋友,空后说具有“实用关系”
的朋友,可知前后为对立关系,并且根据文章主题,可知肯定前者而否定后者,可锁定 B
选项 rather than。
A 选项 according to(根据)没有体现出对立及取舍关系,因此排除;C
选项 regardless of(不管)表让步关系,干扰性较强,但文章更强调取前舍后,因此排除;D
选项 along with(伴随)表顺接,故排除。
故答案为 rather than。
14. [A] chances [B]responses [C]missions [D]benefits
【答案】[D] benefits
【解析】根据前文 functional kinship(实用关系)可得出 D 选项 benefits(利益),前
后形成呼应。
A 选项 chances(机会)、B 选项 responses(反应)、C 选项 missions(使命)均不
符合题意。
故答案为 benefits。
15. [A] later [B]slower [C] faster [D] earlier
【答案】[C] faster
【解析】该句为:
evolving ______ than other genes(比其他基因进化得______). 根
据同词复现,我们找到该段第二句话中:
human evolution picked pace in the last 30,000
years(人类进化在过去 30000 年间提速)。
C 选项 faster 与下文 picked pace(加速)形成呼
应,故答案为 faster。
16. [A]forecast [B]remember [C]understand [D]express
【答案】[C] understand
【解析】此题考查动词。
根据语意。
空格后面是一个 why 引导的宾语从句,意为“人类
进化在过去三万年间得以加速的原因”,表示这一研究的结果和意义。
能与这一宾语从句构
成搭配的只有 C 选项 understand。
A 选项 forecast“预测”与“过去三万年”相矛盾,B
选项 remember“记住”和 D 选项“express”均不符合文意。
17. [A] unpredictable [B]contributory [C] controllable [D] disruptive
【答案】[B] contributory
【解析】此空需要填入一个形容词,表达社会环境对人类进步所起到的作用。
help,pick
pace 这两个词表达的都是积极的含义,因此此处需要填入一个带有褒义的感情色彩的词,
因此排除 A 选项“不可预测的”和 D 选项“破坏性的”; B 而 C 选项“可控的”,与语意无
关;因此正确答案为 B 选项 contributory“促进的”。
18. [A] endeavor [B]decision [C]arrangement [D] tendency
【答案】[D] tendency
【解析】此处进一步陈述这一研究的结论。
A 选项 endeavor“努力”,B 选项“决定”,
C 选项“安排”,D 选项“倾向”。
本文的主旨重在解释人们在交朋友的不自觉的一种倾向,
而非通过人为的有意识的举动来选择朋友。
因此正确答案为 D。
19. [A] political [B] religious [C] ethnic [D] economic
【答案】[C] ethnic
【解析】结合文意,人们普遍希望和有相似基因背景的人。
C 选项 ethnic 意为“种族
的,民族的”,是对上文中多次重复出现的 genes,以及下文的 the same population 的同
义复现。
因此正确答案为 C。
A 选项 political“政治的”, B 选项“宗教的”,D 选项“经
济的”均不符合原文文意。
20. [A] see [B] show [C] prove [D] tell
【答案】[A] see
【解析】此处考察动词,动词势必要看前后搭配。
see that 构成固定词组,意为“务
必使……”,符合文意,即:
即使所有的受访者都拥有欧洲血统,(研究者们)仍然悉心确保
所有的受访者、朋友和陌生人都来自于同一群种。
选项 B“展示”,选项 C“证明”,选项 D
“辨别”均无此含义,且不符合文意。
Section II Reading Comprehension
Part A
Directions:
Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing
A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)
Text 1
King Juan Carlos of Spain once insisted “kings don’t abdicate, they dare in
their sleep.” But embarrassing scandals and the popularity of the republican left
in the recent Euro-elections have forced him to eat his words and stand down. So,
does the Spanish crisis suggest that monarchy is seeing its last days?
Does that
mean the writing is on the wall for all European royals, with their magnificent
uniforms and majestic lifestyle?
The Spanish case provides arguments both for and against monarchy. When public
opinion is particularly polarised, as it was following the end of the Franco regime,
monarchs can rise above “mere” politics and “embody” a spirit of national unity.
It is this apparent transcendence of politics that explains monarchs’
continuing popularity polarized. And also, the Middle East excepted, Europe is the
most monarch-infested region in the world, with 10 kingdoms (not counting Vatican
City and Andorra). But unlike their absolutist counterparts in the Gulf and Asia,
most royal families have survived because they allow voters to avoid the difficult
search for a non-controversial but respected public figure.
Even so, kings and queens undoubtedly have a downside. Symbolic of national unity
as they claim to be, their very history—and sometimes the way they behave today
– embodies outdated and indefensible privileges and inequalities. At a time when
Thomas Piketty and other economists are warning of rising inequality and the
increasing power of inherited wealth, it is bizarre that wealthy aristocratic
families should still be the symbolic heart of modern democratic states.
The most successful monarchies strive to abandon or hide their old aristocratic
ways. Princes and princesses have day-jobs and ride bicycles, not horses (or
helicopters). Even so, these are wealthy families who party with the international
1%, and media intrusiveness makes it increasingly difficult to maintain the right
image.
While Europe’s monarchies will no doubt be smart enough to survive for some
time to come, it is the British royals who have most to fear from the Spanish example.
It is only the Queen who has preserved the monarchy’s reputation with her rather
ordinary (if well-heeled) granny style. The danger will come with Charles, who has
both an expensive taste of lifestyle and a pretty hierarchical view of the world.
He has failed to understand that monarchies have largely survived because they
provide a service – as non-controversial and non-political heads of state. Charles
ought to know that as English history shows, it is kings, not republicans, who are
the monarchy’s worst enemies.
21. According to the first two Paragraphs, King Juan Carlos of Spain
[A] used turn enjoy high public support
[B] was unpopular among European royals
[C] cased his relationship with his rivals
[D]ended his reign in embarrassment
【答案】[D] ended his reign in embarrassment
【解析】事实细节题。
根据题干要求,定位到文章前两段。
而文章第一段的第二句话提
到“But embarrassing scandals and the popularity of the republican left in the recent
Euro-elections have forced him to eat his words and stand down.”(在最近的欧洲选
举中,令人尴尬的丑闻和受欢迎的共和党,均迫使 Carlos 收回前言并退位)。
D 选项中,“stand
down”是“end reign”的同义置换,且“embarrassment”与导致 Carlos 卸任的原因
“embarrassing scandals”是相呼应的。
故 D 是正确答案。
A、B、C 均属于无中生有。
22. Monarchs are kept as heads of state in Europe mostly
[A] owing to their undoubted and respectable status
[B] to achieve a balance between tradition and reality
[C] to give voter more public figures to look up to
[D]due to their everlasting political embodiment
【答案】[A] owing to their undoubted an
