【正确答案】：

答案:

B

[本题分数]：

2.0分

【答案解析】

在内容上举例，而且时态上呼应。

第2题

【正确答案】：

答案:

F

[本题分数]：

2.0分

【答案解析】

[解析]空格前句出现疑问句，因此接下来在空格处出现另一个问题，或对前面的问题进行回答的可能性较大，而且F中的“thearticle”与前文内容呼应“当一本面向中学生的杂志问它的读者……”。

第3题

【正确答案】：

答案:

A

[本题分数]：

2.0分

【答案解析】

[解析]空格前句提到“专家”，空格后句说到“他们”指代专家的可能性较大，因此猜测空格处可能出现涉及到“专家”的内容描述，A中出现的“对经商之道熟悉的商人、科学家、政治家”正足“专家”，所以A正确。

第4题

【正确答案】：

答案:

D

[本题分数]：

2.0分

【答案解析】

[解析]空格后句中提到了“股票市场”。

第5题

【正确答案】：

答案:

C

[本题分数]：

2.0分

【答案解析】

[解析]空格后句是在进行具体列举了一个预测家所做的预测，因此空格处出现观点性、概括性的句子的可能性较大，C在用词上（oneforecaster）恰好与空格后句中的具体人名（H．J．Rand）呼应，而且C（一位预测家知道预测未来总是容易发生大的错误）也正好是概括总结句，而且在句意上很好地解释了为什么H．J．Rand说“只有一件事情是确定的，那就是现在出生的孩子在2000年时将是43岁。
