试题解析SectionIUseofEnglish大师兄英语点评:2015年英语一完形是一篇名为“DNAofFriendship:StudyFindsWeareGeneticallyLinkedtoOurFriends”的文章,该文讲述的是朋友之间有相似基因,并且他们的嗅觉基因也相似这一研究发现。本文与原文的一致性很强,命题人没有删除任何段落。文章难度不大,多以词汇题为主。1.【D】语法题。从第一个空格到最后整个句子是表语从句。主句和其中表语从句缺少连接代词,A、B、C项均为连接副词。只有D项为连接代词。2.【B】句意判断。第一句为本文的论点,而从后面的内容看该论点是一项研究得出的结论。选择选择B项。A项“防御;辩护”;C项“撤回;取钱”。3.【C】介词搭配。根据句意:这份研究是对1932位独特个体实施的全基因组分析研究。表示“在…身上”用介词on。选择C项。4.【A】句意判断。根据该研究的结论“朋友间有1%的基因是相同的”,以及本题后面的“unrelatedfriendsandunrelatedstrangers”可知,此这是份研究“对比”朋友间和陌生人间的基因发现的结论。选择A项。5.【C】词汇题。这些实验对象被分为“无血缘关系的朋友”和“无血缘关系的陌生人”两个“样本”。6.【A】句意判断。根据后面“itisnotsotoageneticist”(但对于一个遗传学家来说并不这样)可知A项“微不足道”最符合题意。C项和D项属于同义词“令人难以置信的”,与A项意思相反。7.【D】句意判断。本句意思是“大部分人甚至都只有D项最符合句意。8.【A】句意判断。根据上一题和本文所阐述的“朋友间有1%的相似基因”这个论点可知。“我们选择的朋友与我们的亲人”A项“相似”;B项“影响”;C项“更喜欢”;D项“超越”。选择A项。9.【B】本文开头的论点是一个发现,而本句又出现了一个发现,只有B项“也”符合逻辑。10.【D】句意判断。根据前面的一句“...difficulttoexplain”以及后面给出的解释,可判断,这是作者的猜测。只有D项“也许”符合题意。11.【B】介词判断。前一句的意思是“这种相似性能将我们引至同样的环境之中”,这是研究团队就朋友间为什么有相同嗅觉基因给出的一个解释,从后面一句“可能有许多机制……”可知,作者认为“对此”的解释还有很多,只有B项介词to有表示“对此,对”的意思。12.【A】根据下文可知,有许多机制“驱使”我们选择基因相近的人为友。B项“观察”。13.【B】整个句子是作者解释为什么朋友间有相同嗅觉基因,前半句说因为有很多机制驱使人们选择基因相似的人为友,根据逻辑判断,后面的“functionalkinship”应该不是择友所需的,所以选择B项“而不是”。14.【D】句意判断。根据前文中“functionalkinship”(起作用的朋友关系),可知交友为了D项“利益”。15.【C】词汇题。选项中有两对反义词,根据题意,首先排除A和D。再根据下文中“pickedpace”可知,此处应为C项“较快的”。16.【C】根据语意。空格后面是一个why引导的宾语从句,意为“人类进化在过去三万年间得以加速的原因”。能与这一宾语从句构成搭配的只有C项understand。A项forecast“预测”与“过去三万年”相矛盾,B选项remember“记住”和D选项“express”均不符合文意。17.【B】该句的前半部分说到“人类进化在过去3万年中加速了”,根据题意可知,此处要表达出“社会环境是一种主要的促成性因素”,所以选择B。18.【D】A项endeavor“努力”;B项“决定”;C项“安排”;D项“倾向”。本文的讨论的重点是解释人们在交朋友的一种倾向,即选择与自己有相似基因的人为友。因此正确答案为D。19.【C】结合上文,人们普遍希望和有相似基因背景的人。因而C项“种族的”最合题意。20.【A】句意判断。前一句是“尽管所有的研究对象都选自某个有欧洲血统的族群,但研究这还是所有研究对象,互为朋友的人和互为陌生人的人都来自同一族群。”四个选项中,只有seethat“确保,务必”1他们的第四代表亲,但总能选择我们亲人的人为友”这两个空有一定的关联性和逻辑性。A项“参观”;B项“想念”;C项“寻求”;D项“知道”。
