Section BPassage One57. C) few industrial scientists would quit to work in a university推理题。“one-way street” 字面意思是“单行道”,含有只能从一个方向前进却很难往相反方向前进的意思,用了比喻用法。文章第二句就解释说明了这个“one-way street”在文中的含义。大学里的学者去商界创业的现象不算稀奇,但是反过来就不怎么常见。所以选择C选项。58. A) keeps someone from taking action推理题。“deterrent”有妨碍物的意思。在文中需要通过上下文来理解。单词前的意思是“薪水永远是最大的…因为很多人觉得到大学里工作就会减少工资,从而无法养家糊口。”从后面半句,我们可以推断出deterrent的意思,所以选A选项。59. B) Her research interests.细节题。答案在Para3Line3可以找到。“Her main reason for… to take advantage of the great freedom to choose research questions.”表明Helen Lee换行主要考虑到的是自己可以比较自由地选择研究领域,即个人的研究兴趣。所以选择B选项。60. D) exploit better intellectual opportunities细节题。本题比较简单,在Para3最后一句“felt it worthwhile for the great intellectual opportunities”就可以找到答案。61. A) Increase its graduates’ competitiveness in job market.推理题。本着一题对应一段的一般原则,我们应该在最后一段里找答案。“the demand for scientists with a wealth of experience in industry in…“that will help students get a job when they graduate”段落主要是在讲industrial scientists到大学教学后的主要贡献。所以选择A项。Passage Two62. D) marriage contributes to a great deal of longevity解析:第一段提到“but the biggest longevity boost seems to come from marriage or an equivalent relationship.”紧接着就说到“The effect was first noted in 1958 by William Farr,…”。句中的boost和选项D中的contribute有相近的意思,故选择D。63. B) marriage can help make up for ill heath解析:Linda Waite举例子说到一个有心脏病的已婚男人可以比未婚但是健康的男人多活4年。因此,婚姻可以弥补身体不健康带来的不利因素,故选B。64. A) the disadvantages of being married解析:flip side的愿意是唱片的另一面,在这里前面已经分析过婚姻的好处,这里指的就是婚姻的反面,故选A。65. A) They have effects similar to those a marriage.解析:第二段最后一句…how all kinds of social networks have similar effects. 故选择A。66. B) To stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.解析:最后一段提到如果想生活的更长久到100岁,就要发展自己的社交网络,故选B。
