　　Earthquake

　　Can Scientists Predict Killer Earthquakes?

　　The date was November 23, 1980. People near Naples, in Southern Italy, felt the Earth roll and Shake. Earthquake! Suddenly buildings came tumbling sown. Cracks appeared in the earth. Within minutes, entire towns were destroyed. Thousands of people were dead. Thousands more were injured.

　　As rescuers searched through the rubble, many people must have wondered, of only the victims had known ahead of time, many lives could have been saved.

　　Actually, and Italian scientist did predict that such a quake would happen. In 1977 Dr. M. Caputo of the Universite Degiles Studi in Rome warned that a large quake would soon strike the east of Naples. Unfortunately, he couldn�餿 predict the exact time and date of the quake.

　　Dr. Caputo made his general prediction after talking with scientists at 54 earthquake monitoring stations throughout Italy. He learned that many earthquakes had recently rocked different areas around Naples. But none had occurred in one particular spot east of Naples for many years. Dr. Caputo felt that the area was long overdue for a large quake. And it was.

　　Earthquake Strikes in Gap

　　The quake occurred in a region that Dr. Caputo called a seismic gap. A seismic gap is an area in an active earthquake region where no earthquake or seismic activity has been recorded in a long time. Seismic gaps are located where two large plates in the Earth have become stuck.

　　When the plates slide past each other, they sometimes became locked in place. A similar thing happens when you make a running leap on a sidewalk while wearing sneakers. When you land on both feet, the sneakers grab onto rough surface. Friction tends to hold your feet back while the rest of your body goes forward. You may end up falling flat on your face.

　　In the case of plates, however, the uneven surfaces between the plates cause the plates to remain locked in place for years. Huge pressure builds up behind each plate. Periodically, a shudder, or tremor, is recorded as some of this energy is released.

　　Finally, after about 50 years, rock in the seismic gap either suddenly breaks or moves under the great stress. This sudden release of energy sends shock Waves through the rock layers above. The ground shakes, sidewalks crack, and buildings tumble. A mighty quake has struck.

　　Gaps Used To Predict Quakes

　　Many geologists have used what is called the seismic gap technique to accurately predict earthquakes. The technique was first developed by Soviet earthquake expert Dr. V. Fodotov during his studies of ancient and recent Japanese earthquakes. Dr. Fodotov was marking the location, size, and date of all known quakes in Japan when he noticed a striking pattern.

　　All major earthquakes were found to occur in only a few isolated spots in Japan. Each of these spots, he noted, experienced a major quake only once every 50 to 60 years. Dr. Fodotov concluded that spots that hadn�餿 had a quake in more than 50 years were “ripe” for a quake. The Russian scientist named these locations seismic gaps.

　　In the past several years, geologists from other countries have found seismic gaps in other parts of the world. After making detailed studies of past quakes in these regions, the geologists were able to make an accurate prediction of when a quake would occur.

　　How Do Animals Know When an Earthquake Is Coming?

　　Scientists who try to predict earthquakes have gotten some now helpers recently - animals.

　　That�餾 right, animals. Scientists have begun to catch on to what farmers have known for thousands of years. Animals often seem to know in advance that an earthquake is coming, and they show their fear by acting in strange ways. Before a Chinese quake in 1975, snakes awoke from their winter sleep early only to freeze to death in the cold air. Cows broke their halters and tried to escape. Chickens refused to enter their coop. all of this unusual behavior, as wall as physical changes in the earth, alerted Chinese scientists to the coming quake. They moved people away from the danger zone and saved thousands of lives.

　　One task for scientists today is to learn exactly which types of animal behavior predict quakes. It�餾 not an easy job. First of all not every animal reacts to the danger of an earthquake. Just before a California quake in 1977, for example, an Arabian stallion became very nervous and tried to break out of his stall. The horse next to him, however, remained perfectly calm. It�餾 also difficult at times to tell the difference between normal animal restlessness and “earthquake nerves”. A zoo keeper once called earthquake researchers to say that his cougar had been acting strangely. It turned out that the cat had an upset stomach.

　　A second task for scientists is to find out exactly what kind of warnings the animals receive. They know that animals�� sense far more of the world than humans do. Many animals can see, hear, and smell things that people do not even notice. Some can detect tiny changes in air pressure, gravity, or the magnetism of Earth. This extra sense probably helps animals predict quakes.

　　A good example of this occurred with a group of dogs. They were penned up in an area that was being shaken by a series of tiny earthquakes. (Several small quakes often come before or after a large one.) Before each quake a low booming sound was heard. Each boom caused the dogs to bark wildly. Then the dogs began to bark during a silent period. IA scientist who was recording tile quakes looked at his machine. It was acting as though there were a loud noise too. The scientist realized that the dogs had reacted to a booming noise. They also sensed the tiny quake that followed it. The machine recorded both, though humans felt and heard nothing.

　　In this case there was a machine to monitor what the dogs were sensing. Many times, however, our machines record nothing out of the ordinary, even though animals know a quake is coming. The animals might be sensing something we so measure but do not recognize as a warning. Discovering what animals sense, and learning how they know it is a danger signal, is a job for future scientists.

　　1.Since no one had predicted the precise date of the earthquake striking east of Naples, people there suffered heavy loss in the destruction.

　　2.A seismic gap is located at the junction of two interlocking plates in the earth, and where no seismic activity has been recorded for a long time.

　　3.From the passage we learn that a regular striking pattern can be found in an active earthquake region.

　　4.During an earthquake in China 1975, cows broke their halters and ran away from their sheds.

　　5.As it is used in paragraph 14, the word “cat” refers to a typical domestic cat.

　　6.All animals but men can notice tiny changed in air pressure, gravity, or the magnetism of Earth.

　　7.The dogs mentioned in paragraph 16 had sensed both the low booms and the minor quakes following them.

　　Part ⅣReading Comprehension(Reading in Depth)(25 minutes)

　　Section A

　　Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

　　Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.

　　What is it about Americans and food? We love to eat, but we feel 47about it afterward. We say we want only the best, but we strangely enjoy junk food. We�餽e 48with health and weight loss but face an unprecedented epidemic of obesity. Perhaps the 49to this ambivalence lies in our history. The first Europeans came to this continent searching for new spices but went in vain. The first cash crop wasn�餿 eaten but smoked. Then there was Prohibition, intended to prohibit drinking but actually encouraging more 50ways of doing it.

　　The immigrant experience, too, has been one of in harmony. Do as Romans do means eating what “real Americans” eat, but our nation�餾 food has come to be 51by imports-pizza, say, or hot dogs. And some of the country�餾 most treasured cooking comes from people who arrived here in shackles.

　　Perhaps it should come as no surprise then that food has been a medium for the nation�餾 defining struggles, whether at the Boston Tea Party or the sit�瞚ns at southern lunch counters. It is integral to our concepts of health and even morality whether one refrains from alcohol for religious reasons or evades meat for political 52.

　　But strong opinions have not brought 53. Americans are ambivalent about what they put in their mouths. We have become 54of our foods, especially as we learn more about what they contain.

　　The 55 in food is still prosperous in the American consciousness.It’s no coincidence,then,that the first Thanksgiving holds the American imagination in such bondage(束縛).It’s what we eat—and how we 56it with friends

　　[E] constant[F] defined[G] vanish[H] adapted

　　[I] creative[J] belief[K] suspicious[L] certainty

　　[M] obsessed[N] identify[O] ideals

　　Section B

　　Directions:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D].You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

　　Passage One

　　Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

　　It is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10th and 11th centuries. As a wife, the woman was protected by the setting up of a dowry (嫁妝). Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of desertion, but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The dowry was the wife�餾 right to receive a tenth of all her husband�餾 property. The wife had the right to with hold consent, in all transactions the husband would make, and more than just a right; the documents show that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife.

　　The wife shared in the management of her husband�餾 personal property, but the opposite was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in point is that of Maria Vivas. Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on compensation. None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the scribe to have a contract duly drawn up assigning her a piece of land from Miro�餾 personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, “for the sake of peace.” Either through the dowry or through being hot�瞭empered, the wife knew how to win herself, with the context of the family, a powerful economic position.

　　57.Originally, the purpose of a dowry is to.
　　[A] give her the right to receive all her husband�餾 property
　　[B] help her to enjoy a higher position in the family
　　[C] protect a woman against the risk of desertion
　　[D] both A and C

　　58.According to the passage, the legal status of the wife in marriage was.
　　[A] higher than that of a single woman
　　[B] higher than that of her husband
　　[C] lower than that of her husband
　　[D] the same as that of her husband

　　59. Why does the author give us the example of Maria Vivas?
　　[A]To show that the wife shared in the management of her husband�餾 personal property.
　　[B]To show that the wife can defend her own inheritance.
　　[C]To prove that women have powerful position.
　　[D]To illustrate how women win her property.

　　60.The compensation Maria Vivas gets for the field is.
　　[A] some of the land Miro had inherited
　　[B] a tenth of Miro�餾 land
　　[C] money for household expenses
　　[D] money form Miro�餾 inheritance

　　61. The author�餾 attitude towards Maria Vivas is.
　　[A] sympathetic
　　[B] disapproval
　　[C] indifferent
　　[D] objective

　　Passage Two

　　Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.

　　According to sociologists, there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized as the leader of a social group. In the family, traditional cultural patterns confer leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, such as friendship groups, one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In larger groups, leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.

　　Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of “natural leaders”. It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group.

　　Research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals. Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group. Group members look to instrumental leaders to “get things done”. Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that emphasizes the collective well�瞓eings of a social group�餾 members. Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.

　　Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members. They give others and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment of the groups goals. Expressive leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group. They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group. As the difference in these two roles suggest, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members; instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a more distant respect.

　　62. What does the passage mainly discuss?
　　[A] The problems faced by leaders.
　　[B] How leadership differs in small and large groups.
　　[C] How social groups determine who will lead them.
　　[D] The role of leaders in social groups.

　　63.The passage mentions all of the following ways by which people can become leaders EXCEPT.
　　[A] recruitment
　　[B] formal election process
　　[C] specific leadership training
　　[D] traditional cultural patterns

　　64. Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?
　　[A]Person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effective leader in another group.
　　[B] Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.
　　[C]A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.
　　[D]Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.

　　65. In mentioning “natural leaders” in line 7, the author is making the point that.
　　[A] few people qualify as “natural leaders”
　　[B] there is no proof that “natural leaders” exist
　　[C] “natural leaders” are easily accepted by the members of a group
　　[D] “natural leaders” share a similar set of characteristics

　　66. The passage indicates that instrumental leaders generally focus on.
　　[A] ensuring harmonious relationships
　　[B] sharing responsibility with group members
　　[C] identifying new leaders
　　[D] achieving a goal

　　Competition

　　Competition makes people more creative and effective. It urges them to plan better, to try harder, and to achieve more. With a desire to excel in their work, people tend to perform more creatively and more efficiently.

　　Competition helps produce better products and services. In the present world of intense competition, every manufacture tries his best to outmatch his competitor by producing goods of better quality at lower costs. As a result, consumers pay less and receive better service.

　　Competition promotes further development of society. If there were no competition, people would remain complacent and be unwilling to make any efforts or risk anything new. However, with fierce competition going on, they exert themselves to accomplish more. Their accomplishment will, in one way or another, contribute to the progress of society.

　　Section B

　　Passage One

　　A couple of months ago, I went to a department store to buy a few things for the house. I needed a set of curtains for the living room, two table lamps, a rug and several cushions. I asked them to deliver the things as soon as possible, but they said that they were unable to send them out until 20 days later. After about 3 weeks, I received only the curtains and table lamps. I was a little disappointed when I didn�餿 receive all the items I had bought. But nevertheless, I was eager to see what the curtains and lamps looked like. I first opened the package with the curtains. I had bought a lovely light blue, and instead they had sent me a horrible dark purple. Well, you can just imagine how angry I was. Then I opened the boxes with the lamps. They were exactly what I�餯 ordered. But one of the lamp shapes was damaged. The next thing I did was to telephone them to complain. They promised to come to pick them up immediately and also to replace them with the correct order. It has been two weeks since my complaint. They have neither picked up the wrong items nor sent me the rest of my order.

　　Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　26. When did the woman want the store to deliver the items?

　　Passage Two

　　Researchers have discovered a link between drinking and thinking. A moderate amount of alcohol may help us keep our mental abilities as we age. Brain scans show alcohol abuse kills brain cells. But little is known about the effects of life-long drinking. So moderate drinkers may want to toast new findings from researchers at Duke, Indiana Universities. Dr. Joe Christian of Indiana Universities says men who have one or two drinks each day retain slightly stronger comprehension skills than the non-drinker or the heavy drinker. The doctor and his colleagues gave mental tests to nearly 4000 male twins between the ages of 66 and 76. The moderate drinkers had slightly better reasoning ability than their brothers who drink more or less. Other studies have found that alcohol in moderation can help the heart. But alcohol abuse can cause bone loss and other health problems. This study was presented at an alcoholism meeting in San Antonio.

　　Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　29. What has recent research found about drinking?

　　【解析】C研究者最近發(fā)現(xiàn)適量的飲酒可以使人變老時(shí)，保持智慧。A moderate amount of alcohol may help us keep our mental abilities as we age.

　　30.How would moderate drinkers feel about the new research findings?

　　【解析】BSo moderate drinkers may want to toast new findings from researchers at Duke, Indiana Universities. 本題要聽(tīng)出關(guān)鍵詞toast,為敬酒祝賀之意。即適量飲酒者會(huì)為這個(gè)新發(fā)現(xiàn)舉酒慶祝，所以他們當(dāng)然是高興的。

　　31.Where was the result of the study first made public?

　　【解析】A從這一句This study was presented at an alcoholism meeting in San Antonio.這個(gè)結(jié)果是首次在一個(gè)會(huì)議上展示出來(lái)的。關(guān)鍵詞在于meeting。

　Passage Three

When we got there, we put up our tent and went to explore. As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out and then we saw a bear enter our camp. Tom wanted his father to chase him away. His father said, “No, it�餾 dangerous to chase a bear. And don�餿 let him chase you.” Susie said: “What shall we do?” “Maybe we ought to climb a tree.” Tom said: “No, we�饁e got to get him out of there. He might go to sleep in our tent.” “Maybe we could make him leave if we put some honey outside for him to eat.” Susie suggested. Then I said: “How are you going to get the honey? It�餾 in the tent.” We watched the bear enter the tent and heard him upset everything inside. “It�餾 foolish for us to try to catch him.” said my husband. “Leave him alone and wait for him to come out.” We waited but the bear stayed inside. We had to sleep in the car.

　　Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　32. Where have the family decided to go in the vacation this summer?

　　【解析】A聽(tīng)完全文可以得知這個(gè)家庭還未決定好去哪里度假。所以正確答案為They haven�餿 reached a decision yet.

　　33. Who do you think saw the bear first?

　　【解析】A從短文中這一段可以看出答案。As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out and then we saw a bear enter our camp，因此顯然是女兒Susie先看到了熊。

　　34. What did they do when they saw a bear enter their tent?

　　【解析】B他們站在外面一直在討論該怎么對(duì)付這只熊，但最終什么都沒(méi)做。因此，正確答案為They stayed outside the tent and did nothing.

　　35. What did the bear do in the tent?

　　【解析】DWe watched the bear enter the tent and heard him upset everything inside.關(guān)鍵詞在upset, 意為“*、翻倒”。熊把帳篷里的東西弄得亂七八糟。

　　Part ⅣReading Comprehension(Reading in Depth)

　　Section A

　　【短文大意】

　　47. 【解析】[D] feel是一個(gè)系動(dòng)詞，可以判斷此處應(yīng)填入一個(gè)形容詞，通過(guò)上下文意思，以及后面介詞about, 可以確定選項(xiàng)為D項(xiàng)guilty, 短語(yǔ)feel guilty about sth. “對(duì)…感到有愧”。全句的意思為“我們很愛(ài)吃，但是往往在吃完之后又有負(fù)罪感”。

　　48.【解析】[M] be obsessed with 為固定搭配，原意為“被…附上/纏住/迷住心竅”，放在本句表示“十分重視”。全句的意思為“我們很關(guān)心健康和減肥，但肥胖卻又空前地在蔓延”。

　　49.【解析】[A]本句缺一個(gè)名詞作主語(yǔ)，并且根據(jù)和介詞to的搭配，可以推斷出正確選項(xiàng)answer.

　　50.【解析】[I]本句根據(jù)more和ways可以判斷出需要填入一個(gè)形容詞構(gòu)成比較級(jí)，根據(jù)上下文，表示“旨在禁止酗酒的禁酒令，卻激發(fā)了更多新奇的方法來(lái)酗酒”，可以確定I為正確選項(xiàng)。

　　51. 【解析】[F]本題較難。根據(jù)be 和by 確定應(yīng)填入一個(gè)過(guò)去分詞。再根據(jù)上下文，上文表示“應(yīng)該吃典型的美國(guó)人吃的食物”，下文通過(guò) but 轉(zhuǎn)折，表示實(shí)際上“美國(guó)的食物已經(jīng)被諸如比薩和熱狗這樣的舶來(lái)品所詮釋了”，因此可以確定F為正確選項(xiàng)。

　　52.【解析】[B]政治結(jié)果，可根據(jù)宗教原因religious reasons來(lái)推斷此處填政治結(jié)果。

　　53.【解析】[L]由于橫線后面沒(méi)有賓語(yǔ)，可以確定不是形成bring的短語(yǔ)，這樣本句所缺的為一名詞，做bring的賓語(yǔ)。根據(jù)下文解釋，“美國(guó)人對(duì)他們所吃的食物的態(tài)度是矛盾的”，可以推出本句意義為“堅(jiān)定的觀點(diǎn)也不是確定不變的n。因此可以確定L為正確選項(xiàng)。

　　54.【解析】[K]系動(dòng)詞become后應(yīng)填入一個(gè)形容詞，和后面介詞of形成短語(yǔ)be/become suspicious of “對(duì)…感到懷疑”。

　　55.【解析】[J]本句缺一個(gè)名詞作主語(yǔ)，并且根據(jù)和介詞in的搭配，可以推斷出正確選項(xiàng)belief，“(have)belief in sth.” 相信…。

　　56.【解析】[C]本句是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，缺一個(gè)動(dòng)詞，且和with 搭配，確定選項(xiàng)share, “share sth with sb, 與某人分享某事”。

　　Section B

　　Passage One

　　57. 【解析】C細(xì)節(jié)推理題。本文介紹了歐洲南部10和11世紀(jì)嫁妝對(duì)女性在婚姻中地位的重要性。雖然嫁妝最初的目的防止女性被拋棄，但實(shí)際上它的作用遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不止于此。它使妻子在婚姻中的地位與丈夫平等，并保障了妻子的經(jīng)濟(jì)利益。女性在維護(hù)自己的利益上，是很堅(jiān)定果敢的，Maria Vivas就是一個(gè)例子。見(jiàn)第一段第三句，“Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of desertion...”，雖然在實(shí)際生活中嫁妝有更重要的作用，但最初它的作用只是為了防范女性被丈夫拋棄，所以C)為正確答案。

　58.【解析】D細(xì)節(jié)推理題。根據(jù)本文，妻子在婚姻中的法律地位和丈夫是平等的。見(jiàn)第一段最后一句，“In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife”文件中并沒(méi)有表明丈夫和妻子在法律地位上有任何的差別，也就是說(shuō)他們的地位是平等的，所以D)為正確答案。

　　59.【解析】B判斷推理題。作者為什么要舉Maria Vivas的事例，是為了說(shuō)明妻子是能夠捍衛(wèi)自己的利益的。見(jiàn)第二段第二句，“Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance...they showed a fine fighting spirit.”如果丈夫要侵占自己的利益，女性們就時(shí)刻準(zhǔn)備著捍衛(wèi)自己的利益，有時(shí)她們還表現(xiàn)出很強(qiáng)的斗爭(zhēng)精神。接下來(lái)作者就舉了Maria Vivas的例子，說(shuō)明女性是有能力捍衛(wèi)自己的利益的。所以B)為正確答案。

　　60.【解析】A細(xì)節(jié)推理題。Maria Vivas得到的一份作為補(bǔ)償?shù)耐恋兀�本�?lái)是屬于Miro的個(gè)人財(cái)產(chǎn)。見(jiàn)第二段第五句，“None being offered, she succeeded in... assigning her a piece of land from Miro�餾 personal inheritance”由此知A)為正確答案。

　　61.【解析】D判斷推理題。作者對(duì)Maria Vivas所持的態(tài)度是客觀的。作者客觀地介紹了Maria Vivas的事例，并沒(méi)有表示出同情、不滿或者是漠不關(guān)心，所以A),B),C)都是錯(cuò)誤答案。

　　Passage Two

　　62.【解析】D主旨題。本篇主要討論不同的(如instrumental leaders以及expressive leaders)在不同的社會(huì)群體中所充當(dāng)?shù)慕巧�和發(fā)揮的功能。所以D為正確答案。A、B、C選項(xiàng)都不能正確概括本文主旨。

　　63.【解析】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。A選項(xiàng)的招募(recruitment)和B選項(xiàng)選舉程序(election process)都在第一段中作為大群體的產(chǎn)生的方式被明確提到。D選項(xiàng)也在第一段中作為家庭的產(chǎn)生的方式被明確提到。只有C選項(xiàng)沒(méi)有作為產(chǎn)生的一種方式在本文中被提及。

　　64.【解析】A推論題。A選項(xiàng)意思是:某一特定群體的有效，不一定就可以成為另一群體的有效。這正好與第二段的意思相吻合，即沒(méi)有一個(gè)固定的特點(diǎn)，只是符合了一個(gè)特定群體需要的人就有可能成為該群體的(It seems…virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group)。B選項(xiàng)和C選項(xiàng)的意思與本文無(wú)關(guān)。D選項(xiàng)意為:許多人想成為，但卻很少能拿出證據(jù)來(lái)證明他們具有這樣的資格。顯然是對(duì)文章意思的曲解。

　　65.【解析】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段中“…decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of �餹atural leaders�稹币馑际钦f(shuō)數(shù)十年來(lái)的研究并不能找出可靠證據(jù)來(lái)證明那些人可以成為“天生”，與B項(xiàng)意思一致。

　　66.【解析】D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第三、四段主要講了兩種類型的的區(qū)別。其中instrumental leader側(cè)重于群體目標(biāo)的實(shí)現(xiàn)，而expressive leader相對(duì)于前者并不側(cè)重于群體目標(biāo)的實(shí)現(xiàn)，而是注重為群體成員提供情感支持，并盡力減少內(nèi)部紛爭(zhēng)。(Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.)

　　Part ⅤCloze

　　67. 【解析】[C]本句的意思是：“成功或失敗在很大程度上取決于你是否能揚(yáng)長(zhǎng)避短�！眎mprovement改進(jìn);victory勝利;achievement成果，成就。這三個(gè)詞都不合題意，只有[C] failure“失敗”最合適。

　　68.【解析】[A]to a great extent是固定短語(yǔ)，意思是“很大程度上”，符合題意。類似的說(shuō)法還有：to a large extent,to some extent, to an extent, to a certain extent, to that extent, to the extent of…。the, some, certain都不能與great extent搭配。

　　73.【解析】[D] in one�餾 belief相信。其他選項(xiàng)都不能與belief搭配。

　　74.【解析】[C]capable of doing是固定搭配，意為“能夠干什么”。

　　75.【解析】[D] attempt用做名詞，后接介詞at，意為“試圖，努力”;如果后面接介詞on，表示攻擊的意思。其他兩項(xiàng)都不能與attempt搭配。

　　76.【解析】[C]本句的意思是“具有某一工作的必要技能是一個(gè)優(yōu)勢(shì)”此處應(yīng)填句子的主語(yǔ)，故選動(dòng)名詞having。

　　77. 【解析】[D] 本句主語(yǔ)是A book keeper or carpenter…。根據(jù)主謂一致原則，其謂語(yǔ)應(yīng)當(dāng)用單數(shù)is，而不是復(fù)數(shù)are。being, been都是分詞，應(yīng)該排除。

　　78.【解析】[D] on與前面的capitalize搭配，表示“利用”。做不定式help的補(bǔ)語(yǔ)。其他選項(xiàng)不能與capitalize搭配。

　　79.【解析】[B]本句的意思是“克服缺點(diǎn)”,應(yīng)選weakness(缺點(diǎn)，弱點(diǎn))。idea觀點(diǎn);strength優(yōu)點(diǎn);advantage優(yōu)勢(shì)。

　　80.【解析】[B]固定短語(yǔ)take stock of，意為“對(duì)……估價(jià)，對(duì)……作出判斷”。

　　81.【解析】[A]本句的意思是：“隨著更深入的閱讀”，從語(yǔ)法角度，此處應(yīng)填關(guān)聯(lián)詞。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有as能用做關(guān)聯(lián)詞。

　　82.【解析】[D] 選項(xiàng)A, B, C分別是deal(處理，論述，涉及)的原形，過(guò)去分詞及被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。根據(jù)語(yǔ)法和語(yǔ)義，此處應(yīng)填將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)，意思是“隨著書中內(nèi)容的進(jìn)一步深入，我們將詳細(xì)論述發(fā)展和加強(qiáng)學(xué)習(xí)技能的具體過(guò)程�！�

　　83.【解析】[C]根據(jù)上下文，這里應(yīng)當(dāng)指“學(xué)習(xí)技能”。

　　84.【解析】[B]固定短語(yǔ)to begin with，意為“首先，第一”，常用做插入語(yǔ)。

　　85.【解析】[A]謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞pause后，examine又是動(dòng)詞原形，所以這里應(yīng)當(dāng)選to，可構(gòu)成動(dòng)詞不定式，做目的狀語(yǔ)。其余選項(xiàng)都是介詞，不合題意。

　　86.【解析】[C]本句對(duì)全文進(jìn)行總結(jié)概括，與文章的開頭相呼應(yīng)，Of the utmost importance is your attitude故選attitude。
