Question 1 of 14
正确答案:C
题目解析:rudimentary: 基本的,初步的。A是彻底的;B是严格的;C是基础的;D是偶尔的。所以C的basic是正确答案。对应原文:He received rudimentary village schooling, but mostly he roamed his uncle's farm collecting the fossils that were so abundant in the rocks of the Cotswold hills.原句说smith接受了什么样的教育,而且在他叔叔的农场闲逛并且采集化石,所以肯定受教育不多,而且前面有说他出生在一个穷铁匠家,肯定没有很多教育。thorough彻底和strict严格明显不对;偶尔的教育不搭配,也不对。
Question 2 of 14
正确答案:C
题目解析:A中的surveying定位至第三句,正确,不选:When he grew older, William Smith taught himself surveying from books he bought with his small savings, and at the age of eighteen he was apprenticed to a surveyor of the local parish. 说了是从书上和实习来学习surveying,A正确,不选;同时第三句还说他的书是自己攒钱买的,不是问他叔叔借的,所以C错,选;B中的family定位至第一句,little wealth就是没钱,所以正确,不选:In 1769 in a little town in Oxfordshire, England, a child with the very ordinary name of William Smith was born into the poor family of a village blacksmith.D中的English canal定位至最后一句,正确,不选:He then proceeded to teach himself geology, and when he was twenty-four, he went to work for the company that was excavating the Somerset Coal Canal in the south of England.
Question 3 of 14
正确答案:B
题目解析:B 以canal building做关键词定位至第一句,说在steam locomotive出现之前,canal building达到高潮,也就是说steam locomotive出现之后,canal building的热度开始下降,所以B是答案。那些人雇smith是帮他们找煤,不是检查暴露的岩层,D错;A和C都没有相关信息,不选。
Question 4 of 14
正确答案:C
题目解析:以map做关键词定位至最后一句,但 这句话只说了map很好很重要,没有答案,但可以知道D说反了;往上看,前句说他走了很远,跟地图无关;再往前看:He later worked on similar jobs across the length and breadth of England, all the while studying the newly revealed strata and collecting all the fossils he could find. 说他边工作边收集了他能找到的所有化石,所以C正确;ABD都没说。
Question 5 of 14
正确答案:A
题目解析:meticulously: 仔细地。A是认真地;B是快速地;Cs是频繁地;D是明显的。所以答案是A的carefully。对应原文:In 1815 he published the first modern geological map, "A Map of the Strata of England and Wales with a Part of Scotland," a map so meticulously researched that it can still be used today.原文说他怎么研究的那张地图,使得它今天还能用。这里有一明显的因果关系,既然结果是这个地图至今还能使用,也就证明这地图做的非常不错,应该要选择一个正向词。BCD都是中立的,而A是正向的,代入后因果关系成立。
Question 6 of 14
正确答案:B
题目解析:B 原文的结构是随着blablabla,各地岩石层序不同,没有rock type能变成reliable time marker。A选项与原文说反; B正确;C说smith的分类,原文说了分类,但没有说smith,这个原文没说;D的因果关系纯属瞎扯。
Question 7 of 14
正确答案:D
题目解析:先读所在句子,去调插入语后,插入语之后出答案:Quartz is quartz—a silicon ion surrounded by four oxygen ions—there’s no difference at all between two-million-year-old Pleistocene quartz and Cambrian quartz created over 500 million years ago.说两百万年前的quartz和五亿年前的quartz没有任何区别,往前看,前文说即使没有regional difference,石头也不能用来做time maker。明显highlight的句子强调了不能做time maker的原因,所以答案是D。
Question 8 of 14
正确答案:A
题目解析:A 以distinguish rock strata做关键词定位至第二句,说rock是非常相似的,所以难以区分,所以A对;注意C不对是因为原文没说区分岩石类型;关键词所在的那句话的后半句说明B反了;D没说。
Question 9 of 14
正确答案:D
题目解析:endure: 忍受,耐久。A是消亡,灭亡;B是发展;C是变化;D是存活,从…中坚持过来。所以D的survive正确。对应原文:Some fossils endured through so many millions of years that they appear in many strata, but others occur only in a few strata, and a few species had their births and extinctions within one particular stratum.原文说这些石头怎么样数百万年,结果在诸多岩层中都有出现,肯定是持续之类的意思,所以应该这么多年都没有什么变化。不管是vanish消失develop发展还是vary都是发生了变化,所以都不对。
Question 10 of 14
正确答案:D
题目解析:Virtually: 事实上,几乎。A是可能;B是绝对地;C是惊人地;D是几乎。所以答案D的nearly正确。对应原文:Soon it was realized that this principle of faunal (animal) succession was valid not only in England or France but virtually everywhere. 原句说faunal succession不仅在英国和法国有效而且在所有地方都有效,possibly程度太轻;absolutely程度太重;suprisingly表示一种惊奇的主观态度,原文没有体现。
Question 11 of 14
正确答案:BC
题目解析:BC 注意需要选两项;排除法,A中的flora定位至倒数第二句,说也succession可以用于flora也能用于fauna;B选项要找两个人,第二句和第三句刚好符合,正确;C中的strata定位至第二句,正确;原文没解释plants和animals经历了相同的transformation,D错。
Question 12 of 14
正确答案:B
题目解析:B,先读trilobite所在句,说灰岩会在寒武纪或者侏罗纪出现,但特殊时代的生物只会在特定时间出现。也就是生物比岩石类型可靠,B正确;其他的都没说。
Question 13 of 14
正确答案:C
题目解析:C 三个过渡点,these geologists,rock and fossil records还有different parts of the world,根these geologists前面一定得有地质学家,所以A和B被排除,而且应该先说different parts of the world,然后再用England和France做具体例子,所以C对D错。
Question 14 of 14
正确答案:BCF
题目解析:B.C.F Smith found success选项与第一段第一句内容相反,不选。Smith’s work选项对应第二段第三句,正确。Smith found that选项对应第三段第三句和第四段最后一句,正确。Smith was named选项与第三段第一句的内容相反,不选。Smith and Cuvier选项原文没说,不选。the discovery选项对应第五段的第一和第二句,正确。
