1.A.division          B.part        C.group        D.habit

答案:A

提示:文章的第一句把西方人分为两种,从starts来看,这里指的是分类产生于学校时代。从下文分别谈论两种类别的人来看,这里指的是“分类”。

2.A.pleasant         B.popular       C.crazy        D.particular

答案:B

提示:be popular with的意思是“受某人的欢迎”;其他三个选项均不和with搭配使用。

3.A.take           B.act         C.copy        D.advance

答案:C

提示:copy one’s style的意思是“照搬某人的模式”即模仿某人。其他三个选项和style搭配时意思不对。

答案:D

提示:make an effort为固定短语,意思是“努力”。

5.A.the other        B.any         C.other        D.another

答案:A

提示:这里指和the cool相对应的另一个uncool阵营。本文没有提到第三类型,因此首先要排除的就是B、D两项。

6.A.operating        B.speaking       C.social        D.experimental

答案:C

提示:从上下文中可以看出,the cool之所以受大家的喜爱,除他们的外貌外,他们的言谈举止大方潇洒,善于交际等都是the uncool所缺乏的。因此说,the uncool没有太多的社交技巧。

7.A.good          B.active        C.hopeless       D.sharp

提示:like在这里是介词,意思是“例如”。

9.A.admired        B.thought        C.known       D.recognized

答案:C

提示:从文章意思及搭配上看,只能选择known。be known as的意思是“以……而著名”;B项应加of,构成think of sb.as短语;be recognized as...的意思是“被作为……而?承认”。

答案:A

提示:后面的computers和IT是此空白处的词的解释,可看作同位语。computers和IT(电子计算机和信息技术)是一个行业,所以用industry。

14.A.excite       B.discourage        C.demand      D.promise

答案:A

提示:geeks的创造使人类社会进入到一个新时代--信息时代。他们的杰出表现令人钦佩、叹服。所以像比尔·盖茨这样的geeks成了人们效仿的榜样。excite“激发,刺激”;discourage“使泄气,阻止”;demand“要求”;promise“保证(去做)”。

15.A.space       B.world         ce      D.heaven

答案:D

提示:上文说道geeks成为全球范围内的主力军,下文说到他们的影响使文化产生了新的趋势,这里是一个附加的关系。

18.A.rich         B.uncool         C.attractive     D.handsome

答案:B

提示:geeks对大众文化的影响有了新的趋势。和过去的观点完全相反,以前人们认为的uncool现在成了cool。过去人们看重外表,现在人们更看重内涵。

19.A.how        B.that           C.how much     D.what

答案:D

提示:分析句子可知,这里考查一个比较结构,相对比的两项必须是同类的东西。what you know和what you look like相对比。what充当like的宾语。

20.A.dangers        B.questions       C.possibility     ces

答案:A

提示:最后一段含有幽默的语气。geeks在上学时往往是大家欺负和嘲笑的对象。现在某个geeks可能是你的老板,过去如果你欺负过他的话,现在该是你受惩罚的时候了,所以存在着危险。
