词汇理解
Researchers coin a new term \\
1.【C1】
I)majority
解析:空格前为 the vast,空格后为介词短语,因而此处需要填入一个名词,被 vast 修饰。备选词汇中,elevator(电梯)、exercise(运动,锻炼)、success(成功,胜利)、variety(多种多样;变化)用在此处语义均不通顺,可排除。the vast majority of为常见用法,意为“……的绝大部分”,符合此处语境,故选 I。
2.【C2】
G)exercise
解析:空格位于目的状语 to get…a week 中,其中 of moderate-intensity 缺少中心词,故需要填入一个名词,且该名词能够被 150 minutes 和 moderate-intensity(中等强度)所修饰。备选词汇中,只有exercise(运动,锻炼)用在此处语义通顺,故选G。
3.【C3】
A)accomplish
解析:空格位于 that 引导的定语从句中,其先行词为 goal,manage to do sth.为固定用法,意为“设法做成某事”,故此处空格应填入一个动词原形,且语义上须与目标(goal)相关。备选词汇中,只有accomplish(完成,实现)符合此处语境,accomplish a goal意为“实现一个目标”,故选 A。
4.【C4】
C)calling
解析:此处空格前为 are now,空格后为名词短语 an“active couch potato”,由此可知,此处空格需要填入一个动名词,与系动词 are一起构成宾语从句的谓语。备选词汇中,只有 calling(称呼)符合此处语境,故选C。
5.【C5】
J)physical
解析:此处空格位于由 and 连接的并列句中,该并列句结构完整,不缺少任何句子成分,故需填入起修饰作用的词。空格前为介词,空格后为名词,故可以填入一个修饰 activity(活动)的词。语义上,activity 需要有助于健康。备选形容词中,只有 physical(身体的)符合此处语境,故选J。
6.【C6】
N)undeniable此处
解析:此处空格位于一个简单句的句末,空格前为This is,故此处需要填入一个词作表语。语义上,This 指代前面提到的“锻炼,更笼统地说,任何形式的体育活动都对我们的健康有好处”这一事实,因此,此处需要填入一个描述这一事实的形容词。备选词汇中,只有undeniable(不可否认的)用在此处语义通顺,故选 N。
7.【C7】
H)increasingly
解析:空格所在的句子结构完整,不缺少任何成分,而空格位于动词 spend和宾语 more time 之间,故可以填入一个副词。备选副词中,drastically 意为“急剧地”,无法修饰spend或more time,可排除;increasingly more语义通顺,意为“越来越多的”,故选 H。
8.【C8】
D)consider
解析:此处空格位于不定式结构中,故可以填入一个动词原形。to作options(选择)的后置定语。备选词汇中,adapt意为“适应;改装”,用在此处语义不通顺,可排除。consider 符合此处语境,some of the options to consider意为“可以考虑的一些选择”,语义通顺,故选D。
9.【C9】
F)elevator
解析:此处空格前为定冠词the,空格后为比较级more often,因而此处需要填入一个名词,且语义上需要与前面提到的 stairs(楼梯)形成对比。备选词汇中,elevator意为“电梯”,符合此处语境,故选 F。
10.【C10】
L)recommends
解析:此处空格位于主句中,该主句中缺少谓语动词,空格后为doing,因而需要填入一个后面能接 V-ing 形式的动词。备选词汇中,只有 recommends(建议)符合此处语境,语义通顺。recommend doing sth.为常见用法,意为“建议做某事”,故选L。
