1026.正确答案：G本题解析：空前的the和空后的popularity提示，本空应填形容词。根据所修饰的名词popularity（普及，流行）可知，其前应用表示“不断的，日益的”意义的词。G)growing（发展的，成长的）符合此处语义，故为答案。27.正确答案：A本题解析：空前的become提示，本空应填形容词，且能与介词on构成搭配。符合条件的形容词只有A)dependent（依赖的，从属的），故为答案。28.正确答案：C本题解析：空前的are和空后的giving提示，本空应填副词，故C)fast和K)rather入选。由常识可知，台式机用得越来越少，而无线设备用得越来越多。因此此处表达的应是台式机正迅速让位给无线设备，C)fast（很快地）符合本空的语义，故为答案。29.正确答案：F本题解析：空前的hadto提示，本空应填原形动词。前半句用As指出原因，提到文书负担增加，因此造成的结果就是不得不放弃很多东西。空处应填表示“放弃，让步”意义的词，故答案为F)give（给，让步）。30.正确答案：H本题解析：空前的helped和空后的apilotproject提示，本空应填原形动词，备选项中只有H)launch符合条件，故为答案。launchapilotproject意为“启动一个试点项目”。31.正确答案：N本题解析：空前的wasso提示，本空应填形容词。本句为so…that…句型，表示“如此……以至于……”。由that之后的结果可以推出该实验应该是非常成功的，故答案为N)successful（成功的）。32.正确答案：I本题解析：空前的thesame提示，本空应填名词。前两句提到在芝加哥进行了一个试点项目，该实验非常成功。这是一种策略，故本句说的是约翰霍普金斯大学采用了同样的策略。I)policy（政策，策略）符合语义，故为答案。33.正确答案：B本题解析：分析句子结构可知，33with…computers为短语修饰空前的coats。coats应该是被设计成带有大口袋，故空格处应该填表示“设计”意义的词，而且coats与动词之间是被动关系，故空处应为过去分词形式。B)designed（设计）符合条件，故为答案。34.正确答案：O本题解析：空前的and提示，空处所填词与tests为并列关系，故本空应填复数名词。又因为宾语从句的主语为patients，备选项中与其在语义场上保持一致的名词只有O)treatments（治疗，待遇），故答案为O)treatments。35.正确答案：E本题解析：本句缺少谓语动词，又因为该段讲述的是之前的一项研究结果，故空处应填过去式形式的动词。备选项中符合条件的只有E)gained（得到），故答案为E)gained。gainedabetterunderstandingof意为“得到对……的更好理解”。SectionB11Directions:Inthissection,youaregoingtoreadapassagewithtenstatementsattachedtoit.Eachstatementcontainsinformationgiveninoneoftheparagraphs.Identifytheparagraphfromwhichtheinformationisderived.Youmaychooseaparagraphmorethanonce.Eachparagraphismarkedwithaletter.AncientGreekWisdomInspiresGuidelinestoGoodLife[A]Isitpossibletoenjoyapeacefullifeinaworldthatisincreasinglychallengedbythreatsanduncertaintiesfromwars,terrorism,economiccrisesandawidespreadoutbreakofinfectiousdiseases?Theanswerisyes,accordingtoanewbookThe10GoldenRules:AncientWisdomfromtheGreekPhilosophersonLivingaGoodLife.Thebookisco-authoredbyLongIslandUniversity’sphilosophyprofessorMichaelSoupiosandeconomicsprofessorPanosMourdoukoutas.

本题解析：翻译审题本文主要介绍了潍坊风筝的历史，属说明文。译文应采用较正式的说明性文字，时态主要用一般现在时。原文句型主要是并列句和复合句，在翻译并列句时，应先理清分句之间的关系，选用合适的并列连词将句子连贯起来；在翻译复合句时，应先分清各句之间的主次，采用非谓语动词或从句的形式表现出来。
