【解析】substantively“實(shí)質(zhì)地”；substantially“大量地”；substitutively“可替代地”；subjectively“主觀地”。本句意為經(jīng)過(guò)幾個(gè)世紀(jì)，閱讀的概念已經(jīng)改變了很多。
2.【答案】C
【解析】在這里to是介詞，后接名詞或動(dòng)名詞。因本句中the reading process前也應(yīng)有動(dòng)詞，故選動(dòng)名詞。
3.【答案】A
【解析】although表示“盡管”，符合句意。
4.【答案】A
【解析】involve使卷入、包括；被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)用be involved in；沒有involve to和involve of的用法。
5.【答案】D
【解析】mental function智力活動(dòng)。Opinion“意見”；manner“行為”；effect“影響”，這三項(xiàng)與mental搭配不妥。
6.【答案】B
【解析】disagree about/on“對(duì)……有不同意見”，在這一含義上不能用其他介詞。
7.【答案】A
【解析】view…as把……看作。
8.【答案】D
【解析】stand for“代表”；stand by“支持”；stand to“遵守”；stand off“冷淡”。
9.【答案】B
【解析】contend“爭(zhēng)論”；content“含量、容量”；contempt“輕視、蔑視”；contact“接觸、聯(lián)系”。根據(jù)句意，此處應(yīng)選contend，意為這些權(quán)威爭(zhēng)論說(shuō)……。
10.【答案】A
【解析】inexplicably“無(wú)法解釋地”；inextricably“無(wú)法擺脫的”；inexpressibly“說(shuō)不出地”；inexpediently“不適當(dāng)?shù)亍⒉幻髦堑亍薄１揪湟鉃槠渌藞?jiān)持認(rèn)為閱讀無(wú)法解釋地與思考聯(lián)系在一起。
11.【答案】A
【解析】interpreting“理解”；explaining“解釋”。本句意為一個(gè)孩子能發(fā)出聲音而不理解所讀的含義，不能叫做真正的閱讀。
12.【答案】C
【解析】在這里according to some是說(shuō)“根據(jù)一些人的觀點(diǎn)”。
13.【答案】D
【解析】actually“事實(shí)上地”；practical是形容詞，不能修飾動(dòng)詞。這里actually和前半句的theoretical是在詞意上的相對(duì)，符合句意。
14.【答案】B
【解析】代詞its后接名詞，四項(xiàng)選擇中只有B、D項(xiàng)是名詞。entirety“整體”；entity“實(shí)體”。in its entirety指整體地、全面地。
15.【答案】C
【解析】be classified as“被劃分、被分類到”；be granted“被授予”。
16.【答案】C
【解析】conclusive“確定的”；inclusive“包括的、包圍的”；inclinable“傾向于、贊成的”；complicated“復(fù)雜的”。the most conclusive是最高級(jí)，指最確定性的。
17.【答案】D
【解析】unlock“解開、破譯”；elaborate“詳細(xì)說(shuō)明、論述”；define“解釋、限定”；break up“解散”。
18.【答案】A
【解析】for various purposes因?yàn)楦鞣N各樣的原因，與上下文相符。
19.【答案】C
【解析】此處用副詞so修飾widely。
20.【答案】B
【解析】根據(jù)文意，此處要作總結(jié)，選in short“總之”。By the way順便說(shuō)，So far到目前為止，on the other hand另一方面。 |
