  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 to explain, for now,_(10)_,as the team suggests, it draws us to similar environments but there is more_(11)_it. There could be many mechanisms working together that _(12)_us in choosing genetically similar friends_(13)_“functional Kinship” of being friends with_(14)_!

  One of the remarkable findings of the study was the similar genes seem to be evolution_(15)_than other genes Studying this could help_(16)_why human evolution picked pace in the last 30,000 years, with social environment being a major_(17)_factor.

  The findings do not simply explain people‘s_(18)_to befriend those of similar_(19)_backgrounds, say the researchers. Though all the subjects were drawn from a population of European extraction, care was taken to_(20)_that all subjects, friends and strangers, were taken from the same population.

  【參考答案】:

  1、【答案】[D] what

  【解析】該題考查的是語(yǔ)法知識(shí)。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)和選項(xiàng)的特點(diǎn),可以判斷出空格處應(yīng)填從屬連詞引導(dǎo)從句;再根據(jù)句子的內(nèi)容,可以看出該從句是一項(xiàng)研究的相關(guān)內(nèi)容(what),不是指研究的時(shí)間(when), 原因(why)和方式(how),因此,該題的答案為what.

  2、【答案】[B] concluded

  【解析】從此題所在的句子的前后內(nèi)容可以判斷出,that is_______ 中的that是指第一句話的內(nèi)容(朋友與我們基因上的相關(guān)性),很顯然是研究得出的結(jié)論。因此,答案為concluded.

  3、【答案】[C] on

  【解析】根據(jù)空格所在句子的內(nèi)容(研究對(duì)1932分獨(dú)特的受試者進(jìn)行分析)判斷出進(jìn)行分析的對(duì)象是1932 unique subjects.conduct analysis on…是固定表達(dá)。

  4、【答案】[A] compared

  【解析】該空格所在的句子是which 引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句修飾study,意思是:對(duì)幾對(duì)基因不相關(guān)的朋友和陌生人進(jìn)行_______.因?yàn)?ldquo;研究”的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于朋友間基因上的相關(guān)性問題,所以完整的意思應(yīng)該是:對(duì)幾對(duì)基因不相關(guān)的朋友和陌生人進(jìn)行比較。所以最佳答案為compared.

  5、【答案】[C] samples

  【解析】根據(jù)空格的前后內(nèi)容判斷,到第五個(gè)空為止,文章都在講實(shí)驗(yàn)過(guò)程,和實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)象,第五個(gè)空格所在句子的內(nèi)容是:相同的人們都用于實(shí)驗(yàn)中的這兩類______.所以根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境和內(nèi)容,應(yīng)該選與實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)象相對(duì)應(yīng)的samples(樣例)。因此,答案是samples.

  6、【答案】[A] insignificant

  【解析】空的語(yǔ)境為:盡管這1%看起來(lái)似乎____,但是遺傳學(xué)家可不這么認(rèn)為??涨昂笮纬蓪?duì)比轉(zhuǎn)折的邏輯關(guān)系,而從后文列舉的例子中可知遺傳學(xué)家James Fowler對(duì)這1%基因的態(tài)度是肯定的,故答案為A.

  7、【答案】[D] know

  【解析】空的語(yǔ)境為:大多數(shù)人甚至不____他們隔三代的表親,但卻設(shè)法選擇那些____我們親戚的人作為朋友。填入的詞必須滿足前后句之間的轉(zhuǎn)折邏輯關(guān)系,四個(gè)選項(xiàng)帶入,只有D選項(xiàng)符合上下文語(yǔ)義。

  8、【答案】[A] resemble

  【解析】空的語(yǔ)境為:大多數(shù)人甚至不認(rèn)識(shí)他們隔三代的表親,但卻設(shè)法選擇那些____我們親戚的人作為朋友。根據(jù)全文中心:基因上的相似性,可知本題選擇A.

  9、【答案】[B] also

  【解析】空所在的句子開頭用“The study…”,顯然這是對(duì)上文話題的繼續(xù)闡述,前文指出研究發(fā)現(xiàn)朋友與我們有1%的基因關(guān)系,而空所在句“the genes for smell were something shared in friends”在進(jìn)一步詳細(xì)討論該話題,前后之間是順接關(guān)系,故答案為B.

  10、【答案】[D] Perhaps

  【解析】從選項(xiàng)和文字中句子結(jié)構(gòu)可以判斷,空格處要求填入一個(gè)能夠體現(xiàn)前后兩個(gè)句子邏輯關(guān)系的副詞,空前的句子談到“為什么在嗅覺基因方面存在相似性還很難解釋”,空后卻緊接著對(duì)此得出一個(gè)相關(guān)結(jié)論,很明顯是矛盾的,所以此結(jié)論只能是一種不確定的推測(cè),故答案為D.

  11、【答案】[B] to

  【解析】該題為介詞選擇題。后半句出現(xiàn)比較級(jí),可見是和前文形成比較關(guān)系,因此和上半句介詞保持一致,用介詞to.該句翻譯:它(這種相似性)吸引我們到相同的環(huán)境,并且使我們更為相似。因此答案為to.

  12、【答案】[A] drive

  【解析】該句意思為:很多機(jī)制共同作用,從而_____我們選擇基因相似的朋友,_____和_____交朋友的“功能關(guān)系”。根據(jù)上下文可知,此處所填入動(dòng)詞需符合結(jié)構(gòu)_____sb. in doing sth,B選項(xiàng)observe(觀察,遵守)和C選項(xiàng)confuse(困惑)均無(wú)此用法。符合該結(jié)構(gòu)只有A選項(xiàng)drive(驅(qū)使)和D選項(xiàng)limit(限制)。根據(jù)上下文可得知:這些機(jī)制驅(qū)使我們選擇基因相似的朋友,符合文章主題。如果選限制則為反向干擾。因此答案為drive.

  13、【答案】[B] rather than

  【解析】所填詞為邏輯關(guān)系短語(yǔ),空前說(shuō)選擇基因相似的朋友,空后說(shuō)具有“實(shí)用關(guān)系”的朋友,可知前后為對(duì)立關(guān)系,并且根據(jù)文章主題,可知肯定前者而否定后者,可鎖定B選項(xiàng)rather than.A選項(xiàng)according to(根據(jù))沒有體現(xiàn)出對(duì)立及取舍關(guān)系,因此排除;C選項(xiàng)regardless of(不管)表讓步關(guān)系,干擾性較強(qiáng),但文章更強(qiáng)調(diào)取前舍后,因此排除;D選項(xiàng)along with(伴隨)表順接,故排除。故答案為rather than.

  14、【答案】[D] benefits

  【解析】根據(jù)前文functional kinship(實(shí)用關(guān)系)可得出D選項(xiàng)benefits(利益),前后形成呼應(yīng)。A選項(xiàng)chances(機(jī)會(huì))、B選項(xiàng)responses(反應(yīng))、C選項(xiàng)missions(使命)均不符合題意。故答案為benefits.

  15、【答案】[C] faster

  【解析】該句為:evolving ______ than other genes(比其他基因進(jìn)化得______)。 根據(jù)同詞復(fù)現(xiàn),我們找到該段第二句話中:human evolution picked pace in the last 30,000 years(人類進(jìn)化在過(guò)去30000年間提速)。C 選項(xiàng)faster與下文picked pace(加速)形成呼應(yīng),故答案為faster.

  16、【答案】[C] understand

  【解析】此題考查動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)語(yǔ)意??崭窈竺媸且粋€(gè)why引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句,意為“人類進(jìn)化在過(guò)去三萬(wàn)年間得以加速的原因”,表示這一研究的結(jié)果和意義。能與這一賓語(yǔ)從句構(gòu)成搭配的只有C選項(xiàng)understand.A選項(xiàng)forecast“預(yù)測(cè)”與“過(guò)去三萬(wàn)年”相矛盾,B選項(xiàng)remember“記住”和D選項(xiàng)“express”均不符合文意。

  17、【答案】[B] contributory

  【解析】此空需要填入一個(gè)形容詞,表達(dá)社會(huì)環(huán)境對(duì)人類進(jìn)步所起到的作用。help,pick pace這兩個(gè)詞表達(dá)的都是積極的含義,因此此處需要填入一個(gè)帶有褒義的感情色彩的詞, 因此排除A選項(xiàng)“不可預(yù)測(cè)的”和D選項(xiàng)“破壞性的”; B 而C選項(xiàng)“可控的”,與語(yǔ)意無(wú)關(guān);因此正確答案為B選項(xiàng)contributory“促進(jìn)的”。

  18、【答案】[D] tendency

  【解析】此處進(jìn)一步陳述這一研究的結(jié)論。A選項(xiàng)endeavor“努力”,B選項(xiàng)“決定”,C選項(xiàng)“安排”,D選項(xiàng)“傾向”。本文的主旨重在解釋人們?cè)诮慌笥训牟蛔杂X的一種傾向,而非通過(guò)人為的有意識(shí)的舉動(dòng)來(lái)選擇朋友。因此正確答案為D.

  19、【答案】[C] ethnic

  【解析】結(jié)合文意,人們普遍希望和有相似基因背景的人。C選項(xiàng)ethnic意為“種族的,民族的”,是對(duì)上文中多次重復(fù)出現(xiàn)的genes,以及下文的the same population的同義復(fù)現(xiàn)。因此正確答案為C. A選項(xiàng)political“政治的”, B選項(xiàng)“宗教的”,D選項(xiàng)“經(jīng)濟(jì)的”均不符合原文文意。

  20、【答案】[A] see

  【解析】此處考察動(dòng)詞,動(dòng)詞勢(shì)必要看前后搭配。see that 構(gòu)成固定詞組,意為“務(wù)必使……”,符合文意,即:即使所有的受訪者都擁有歐洲血統(tǒng),(研究者們)仍然悉心確保所有的受訪者、朋友和陌生人都來(lái)自于同一群種。選項(xiàng)B“展示”,選項(xiàng)C“證明”,選項(xiàng)D“辨別”均無(wú)此含義,且不符合文意。
