1．A.filledB．full

C．discoveredD．covered

答案：

D　南极洲在地球最南部，被冰覆盖是常识，它是一个大陆不是容器，不可用“装满”；B、C项搭配有误。

2．A.warmB．coldest

C．coolD．hottest

答案：

B　与driest并列，也用形容词最高级形式，可排除A、C两项；前文提到南极洲在地球最南部，是最冷的地方。

3．A.travelB．settle

C．workD．live

答案：

C　根据最后一段这里的大多数人们研究南极洲的动植物生活规律及冰的移动来预测天气，可知，世界各地的人去那儿目的是工作。

4．A.calledB．built

C．knownD．lived

答案：

A　前面是一个地方，后面是一个名称，所以应用called“被称为，叫”，选known时，后需加as。

5．A.existsB．built

C．hasD．lies

答案：

C　研究站与后面设施（图书馆、电影院等）是所有关系

6．A.whereB．that

C．whoD．how

答案：

B　thattheyuse...是定语从句修饰先行词system，从句中use缺少宾语。

7．A.otherB．another

C．theanotherD．theother

答案：

B　another后加名词，表示多者之中的另一个，theother后加名词，表示两者之中的另一个或剩余的一个，other需接可数名词复数，C项无此用法。

根据句意可知答案为B。

8．A.printersB．icons

C．miceD．computers

答案：

D　根据后文“能储存信息、并能帮助工作人员找到、组织或变换信息等功能”可知，此电子设备是电子计算机。

9．A.don'tB.mustn't

C．shouldn'tD．needn't

答案：

A　此处是指在南极洲的工作人员的通常情况下的出行交通方式，应用一般现在时，另外mustn't表禁止；shouldn't“不应该”；needn't“没必要”，均不符合语境。

10．A.goB．walk

C．travelD．run

答案：

C　根据第9空后的travel可知。

11．A.withB．insteadof

C．onD．infrontof

答案：

A　by接交通工具，表示“坐……”，但dogs“狗”属动物，应用“with”表示伴随。

12．A.someB．any

C．manyD．much

答案：

B　见下题解析。

13．A.plantsB．life

C．animalsD．things

答案：

C　那里没有任何树、花，但有成百上千种鸟类与其他动物。

14．A.teachersB．scientists

C．doctorsD．workers

答案：

B　根据后文中的“study”“研究”及expert“专家”可知此处大多数人是科学家，不可能是老师、医生或工人。

15．A.flowsB．melts

C．freezesD．moves

答案：

D　科学家们研究南极洲冰块/山的移动、变化、动植物的生活规律，南极洲是一个极冷的陆地，冰山不可能（在水上）流动、溶化，更不可能结冰，故答案为D。

16．A.showB．tell

C．suggestD．say

答案：

B　此题可先用排除法去做，showsb.sth.，suggesttosb.，saytosb.，均不符合语境及结构。

而tellsb.aboutsth.向某人显示/说明……，符合语境。

17．A.inB．with

C．byD．on

答案：

D　onthephone或byphone表示“打电话”。

18．A.pleasantB．easy

C．hardD．comfortable

答案：

C　前文中讲述南极洲的有趣与美丽，但此句中的转折词“but”，可暗示此处应选与前文意义相反的词。

19．A.boatingB．swimming

C．fishingD．washing

答案：

B　在夏季我们可以在热水池里游泳。

20．A.studyB．life

C．visitD．climate

【语篇解读】学生为什么要辍学？

是因为他们不聪明不努力而导致考试不及格吗？

调查显示，并非如此。

学校教育的乏味和缺乏实用性才是罪魁祸首。

中学教育的改革势在必行。
