选项 _________(64)
A:shown
B:told
C:stated
D:said

答案A

解析make做;judge判断;date约会;meet见面。本文的主题是讲女人找伴侣。从所在句子 的表示方式的介词短语by how masculine their features are(根据他们男性特征的情况),选择 judge在语义上比较一致。
前后两个句子根据句义表达的是一种对比,因此用while是对的。
female女性的;beautiful漂亮的;attractive吸引人的;male男性的。该句提问的是:854 个调查对象看了一系列的_头部镜头?在第一题的题解中我们说到,本文的主题是 讲女人找伴侣,同时也说到女人是根据男性的特征来选择配偶的。因此在这四个选项中选 male是对的。
answer回答;ask问,;construct构造;build建造。该句意思是:这854个调查对象看完一系列的男性的头部镜头后就要 这些问题。显然,应该是回答问题而不是提问题。 因此选answered是对的。
likely可能的;possible可能的;probable很可能的(比possible的可能性要大一些);nec- essary必然的。本题考查be likely to do(多半,很可能)的搭配。
body躯体;hand手;arm手臂;face脸。由于调查对象看的是男士的头部,故选D。
seem好像;appear出现;look看上去;pretend假装。我们可以说: These men look very masculine.这些男人看上去非常男性。也可以说these masculine looking men。故选C。
fast快(侧重速度);brief短暂的;quick快(侧重急速,机敏);swift快(侧重敏捷、麻利)。 这里有三个表示“快”的英文词,肯定不是合适的选项。另外,紧随其后的短语是对空白处的 解释,其中有not for...longer,这就提醒我们应该用brief这个词。
make制造;cause使得;do干;form形成。make senses"(话等)有意义,合理,有道理, 讲得通”,是固定的用法。
这四个都是介词。be responsible for是固定搭配,表示“为······负责;是造成······的原因”。
normal正常的;ordinary普通的;weak弱;strong强。and是个并列连词,表示并列或对 称关系。并列连词要求所衔接的词、词组或句子在语义上能匹配。healthy是形容词,意为“健 康的”,与strong的语义最为匹配,故选D。
空白处的前边是be linked to,表示“与······连接,相连”,其中to是介词,应接动名词形 式,故选D。
must必须;might可能;have to不得不;should应该。本句的意思是“因此,这些男人 __________会有高质量的后代······”,在下结论时应该留有余地,不应用绝对的语气,所以用 might是比较合适的。
show显出tell告诉;state陈述;say说。本句的意思是:学术界对观相术_________怀 疑的态度。除shown之外,told ,stated或said填入后生成的句子都是说不通的。故选A。
spouse配偶;fan狂热仰慕者;partner配偶;mate伴侣。本句的意思是“······有数百万的女性_________。”我们的现实生活知识告诉我们,任何人都不可能有数百万的配偶和伴侣,所 以只有fans是合适的选择。故选B。
