26、melon　8.accelerate　9.division　10.pulse Ⅱ.1.B　句意：他們的政治行動加速了政府的倒臺。accelerate“加速，加快”；promote“提倡，晉級，促進，推動，促銷”；hasten“匆忙，急忙”；advance“前進”。 2．C　句意：他討厭一些教授做的演講。意思是他厭煩那些講話。be fed up with意為“厭煩”。 3．B　句意：展望未來，我們必將迎來教育系統(tǒng)的改變。由句意知選look ahead向前看，展望未來。 4．C　商店櫥窗上的電動玩具吸引男孩的注意力，他站在那一動不動。arrest one's attention吸引某人的注

27、意力。 5．C　句子設空處的前面主謂結構完整，這里需要非謂語形式修飾temple，它與date之間為主動關系，故用現(xiàn)在分詞dating back to/from。答案為C。 6．A　句意：老師表揚了我的進步，對我的努力表示贊賞。applaud“鼓掌歡迎，贊賞”；accept“接受”；applause為名詞，在此不合要求；adopt“采納”。由句意知A項正確。 7．B　句意：老師激情澎湃地解釋這首詩所表達的主題意義。significance在此處作“意思，意義”講。 8．B　句意：這兩個小偷就如何分他們偷來的錢發(fā)生了爭執(zhí)。division分開，符合句意。distinction區(qū)別；div

28、ersity多樣性；domination控制，統(tǒng)治。答案為B。 9．C　句意：看我所處的困境！我如果聽了你的建議就好了。由句意可知if only后表示的是與過去事實相反的情況，故需用過去完成時，答案為C。 10．A　句意：我就要用洗衣機洗完衣服了，這時洗衣機突然壞了。had almost done...when...就要完成某事……這時……，是固定句式。 Ⅲ.1.C　根據(jù)第二段的末句“He also put the time of the disaster to be about 9,000 years，about 10 times earlier than it could have

29、really occurred according to most historians.”可知答案。 2．B　根據(jù)第三段的“...the tsunamis(海嘯)produced by the crashing of the top of the volcano...”可知海嘯的發(fā)生是因為火山頂部的塌陷。 3．D　根據(jù)末段的“Archaeologists have recovered artifacts...”可知考古學家在島嶼附近發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些史前古器，就是這些發(fā)現(xiàn)讓人們相信圣托里尼就是傳說中神秘消失的亞特蘭蒂斯。 4．A　文章主要的內(nèi)容是關于傳說中沉沒于大西洋的島嶼，這是歷史方面的話題

30、。 5．D　根據(jù)第二段的首句“People of minority races or cultures would probably feel lucky to have lived under the Roman Empire.”以及后面一句中提到的“...there had been in general a lot of tolerance for other cultures.”可以推斷，來自少數(shù)民族或文化的人在羅馬帝國生活得還算舒適。 6．B　第三段中提到不同的奴隸所受到的待遇不同；先是提到了在農(nóng)場上干活的奴隸；然后提到了“...house servants...boys who

31、 took care of the horses...”，緊接著說他們所受的待遇要好一些；然后又提到了一些努力為政府或私人企業(yè)干活、甚至是當上經(jīng)理或者經(jīng)營商店，這說明這類奴隸的生活也可以，由此判斷待遇最差的是在農(nóng)場上干活的奴隸們。 7．D　根據(jù)第四段的“...but most girls had to stay at home.”可知D項正確。 8．C　文章提到了在羅馬帝國生活的來自少數(shù)民族和文化的人，提到了被迫成為奴隸的人，提到了羅馬帝國下孩子的教育，以及婚姻等，這些都是以“人”為中心，因此最佳答案為C項。 Ⅳ.1.The old couple is never fed up with going to the same park every day.　2.His interest in art can date back to his childhood.　3.We must look ahead before we make a decision.　4.If only there were a cure for cancer which did not hurt the human body.　5.The crowd shouted to applaud his excellent speech for five minutes
