27、the sign in his hand，I started thinking about undercover marketing.Well，this man and this sign was more or less the opposite of undercover marketing.He was telling the world who he was working for.Once in a while，you dont realize that youve been marketed to.People have named it stealthily(暗地里) marke

28、ting or undercover marketing.One of the most obvious examples is when stars get free clothes or free products that they are using to get other “ordinary” people to start buying them.The same goes for product placement(植入式广告) in movies.The reason why its undercover marketing is that it doesnt say any

29、where that were actually looking at any type of promotion.I remember Sylvester Stallone took a 500,000 payment from one tobacco company to mark its brand in three of his films.The reason why undercover marketing works is that people tend to trust it more than if they know that its an advertisement t

31、that the number would have been much lower if people had known that it was a paid marketing campaign by RayBan.The most obvious risk for an undercover marketing campaign is failing to keep the campaign hidden.If people feel，or understand that they are being manipulated(操作) into liking the product，th

41、more time to react and avoid holes，bouncing balls，wild animals，or other risks that may appear unexpectedly.This is my way of pushing back against the insistently increasing pace of our highintensity，ondemand society.Think of it as a car drive on a trail.When you load up for a trip，you dont race acro

46、derstand analogy(类推法)It was once thought that only humans could understand analogy，which helps us to solve problems creatively，put things into categories，and make scientific discoveries.To test this ability in animals，scientists do “relational matchingtosample”(RMTS) tests，according to the IFL Scien

47、ce website.If a pair was AA，for example，then picking BB to match it would be correct.If the pair was CD，however，then EF would be correct.Apes and monkeys have learned RMTS，but scientists wanted to know if crows could do it，too.An international team led by Edward Wasserman from the University of Iowa

48、 in the US first trained two hooded crows to match things by color，shape，and number in what is called “identity matchingtosample(IMTS)”，then moved onto RMTS.For the IMTS test，the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it.The card in the middle was the sampl

49、e card.The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards：One was the same as the sample(in the color，shape，or number of shapes pictured)，while the other wasnt.The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.In the second part of the experiment，the birds were

50、 tested with relational matching pairs.A card with two samesized circles，for example，meant they should pick the test card with two samesized squares and not two differentsized circles.The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three quarters of the time，Scien

51、ce News reports.Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS.“What the crows have done is extraordinary，” he said in a news release，“Honestly，if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning，then it would have been an impressive result.But

52、 this was spontaneous.”So perhaps its time to stop saying “birdbrain” permanently!51Why does the author mention the expression “birdbrain” in the opening paragraph?ATo get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.BTo urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.CTo introduce the to

64、pends.看情况而定；Good luck.祝您好运，大吉大利。结合句意他提出的建议实际，可知选A。2A句意为：如果一个朋友冒犯了你，或对你不友好，退一步，怀着同情心，试着从他的角度去感受生活。perspective观点，景色；priority优先权；privilege特权；policy政策。 故选A。3Bdeal with与how连用，而do with与what连用，所以第一空可以排除C、D。回答者是说不知道该怎么办，所以第二空直接填do。如果是填do with，则应该为：I really dont know what to do with them.4C句意为：外出是很好的放松的办法，你下

65、午愿意和我一起去公园吗？第一空填a，泛指一个很好的放松手段；第二空填the，指双方都知道的公园。故选C。5D句意为：谁泄露了整件事情？Mary还是Lucy？都不是，我从John那里知道的。give out分发，发出，耗尽；give off发出；give up放弃；give away赠送，泄露，出卖。根据句意可知D正确。6B句意为：在各种庆祝活动中，世界人口在星期一达到了七十亿，也引起了人们对日益增长的人口究竟会如何影响地球的资源这一问题的关注。分析句子可知空格处引导宾语从句，从句已为完整句子，考虑连接副词，根据句意知选B。7Dunchallenged无异议的，不成问题的；relevant相关的

66、；contradictory矛盾的；controversial有争议的。根据下文，人们仍然在寻找其他可能的解决方法，说明是有争议的，故选D。8A句意为：每天一瓶可乐并不会有太多危害。事实上，你可以通过运动燃烧掉这瓶可乐的热量。as a matter of fact事实上，实际上。故选A。9Bhappen修饰things作后置定语，要用非谓语动词；happen与things构成主谓关系，且句意表达的happen动作还未发生，要用动词不定式表将来。故选B。10C句意为：她当时正在给某个人打电话，所以我向她点点头，就走开了。从逗号后内容可以看出，“我”走开是因为她在打电话，表示当“我”看到她的时候正

67、在发生的事情，再根据句中的nodded和went可知，应该用过去进行时，答案选C项。11A句意为：我终于设法弄到了这份报告的一个副本。obtain获得，符合句意。solve解决；arrange安排；accumulate积累(知识等)。12B句意为：我们应该保护我们的环境免受污染，这样我们的下一代就可以享受蔚蓝的天空，过健康的生活。as if似乎；so that以便，为的是；even if即使；in case以防万一。 故选B。13A根据句意及形式可知后半句是非限制性定语从句。定语从句的先行词是指物的school“学校”，且定语从句中缺少主语，故使用关系代词which引导定语从句。故选A。14D

68、句意为：我们学校对面有一所公园，在那里任何时间都有许多人在玩或做锻炼。方位副词opposite our school位于句首，用完全倒装，故选D项。15B句意表达的是对过去事实的虚拟，要用“情态动词have done”；neednt have done本不必做某事，与句意矛盾。故选B。语篇解读本文进述了南希在从曾祖父那里得到5 000美元后，开办“Dress for Success”着手帮助低收入女性找到更好的工作。16B当Nancy从曾祖父那儿获得5 000美元时，她没有考虑度假或偿还贷款，而是(instead)考虑今天大多数低收入女子所面临的穿衣状况(condition)。17A见上题解析

69、。18A如果一个女子面试求职时穿得很糟糕(poorly)，她就找不到工作，而找不到工作，就负担(afford)不了合适服装的费用。19D见上题解析。20CLublin成立(found)了Dress for Success。21A她请女子捐出一些用过的(used)但仍然(still)较好的商业服装。used用过的，旧的。22D见上题解析。23Bhide躲藏；store贮存；discover发现；hang悬挂，绞死。24A一开始Lublin在她放了一张床的房间存放人们捐出的衣服，但最后她在格林威治村教堂地下室找到了存放空间(space)，现在这空间已成了(serve)该组织的主要办公室。25Bse

72、) or manmade attractions (the Las Vegas trip)”可知，关注历史的选路线6，关注人造景点的选拉斯维加斯之旅。所以拉斯维加斯之旅适合欣赏人造景观的游客，故选C。37B细节理解题。根据部分的“Importantly，these are not promotional photos by the hotels，but more honest and real ones taken by inspectors.”可知，这些不是酒店的宣传照片，他们是由网站的检查员拍摄的。所以网站上关于宾馆的照片都是实地拍摄的，没有广告宣传的成分在里面。故选B。38D细节理解题。

73、根据www.101usaholidays.co.uk部分的“Narrow down what you are looking forwhether by price，region，theme and who will be traveling”可知，www.101usaholidays.co.uk符合题目要求，故选D。39A推理判断题。根据www.101usaholidays.co.uk部分的“.a cycling and winetasting trip in Californias Napa Valley.”可知，游客可以前往Napa Valley享受品酒之旅，故选A。40D文章出处题。根

74、据第一段的“Plan on traveling around the USA this summer.there are a number of outstanding websites that can make your American dream come true.”可知，如果你计划今年夏天环游美国。有许多优秀的网站可以让你的计划成真。文章接下来介绍了几个与旅游有关的网站，所以本文可能来自于旅游手册。故选D。41A推理判断题。由第一段内容可知，作者对该男子的广告不感兴趣。42D细节理解题。由第三段最后一句“.to mark its brand in three of his film

75、s.”可知选D。43B词义猜测题。植入式广告起作用的另一原因是它比正式广告更容易吸引人们的注意力。44C推理判断题。根据该段中心句“The reason why undercover marketing works.has paid for.”可知，所举例子是例证植入式广告的有效性的。45A段落大意题。根据最后一段第一句“The most obvious risk for an undercover marketing campaign is failing to keep the campaign hidden.”可知，该段讲的是植入式广告的风险。语篇解读本文属于人生感悟类阅读，主要讲述了作

76、者喜欢的慢速生活，虽然与现代社会格格不入，但是会发现不一样的风景。46A推理判断题。根据第三段可知作者认为她爱的35 英里每小时的低速度是不被这个社会接受的。故选A。47B细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Other kids were howling with delight at the sharp turns and steep drops while I was mentally repeating the phrases Please be over soon and I dont want to die”可知作者提到她在迪士尼乐园的经历证明她并不敢于挑战高速度。故选B。48C推理判断

77、题。根据第五段第三、四句“After 45plus years on the road，I can handle a vast range of traffic hardships.Ive had my share of rigid joints and sweaty palms but not one accident since a curving fender(挡泥板) incident in college.”可知作者开车和别人一样快。故选C。49D词义猜测题。根据第七段首句“Its a speed that allows me to appreciate my surrounding

78、s because the scenery doesnt flash by in a blur.”(这是一个能让我欣赏我的周围的速度，因为风景不会模糊地一闪而过)，可知blur意为“模糊的情况”，故选D。50A标题归纳题。根据最后一段最后两句“When you load up for a trip，you dont race across the countryside at a full dash.Its much nicer to wander along and find pleasure in the journey.”可知最佳标题为“我的生活在慢车道”。故选A。语篇解读英语中常用bi

79、rdbrain来形容一个人笨，但通过乌鸦的实验证明这是不公平的。现在人们还发现乌鸦懂得类推法。51D推理判断题。由第一段可知，提到birdbrain是用来引出话题，介绍乌鸦也是很聪明的。故D项正确。52D细节理解题。由第五段最后一句可知，与样卡相匹配的带卡杯子里有两只虫子可以吃。故D项正确。53A细节理解题。由第六段可知，所选择的卡片应该是与样卡大小一样、形状不一样的卡片。故A项正确。54C词义猜测题。该段倒数第二句意为“乌鸦如果是通过被强迫才展示出这种学习能力的话，那么这将会是一个令人印象深刻的结果。”由之后的but可知，前后两句为转折关系，即画线词所在句应表示乌鸦不是被强迫的，即“这是自然

80、的，自发的”。故C项正确。55B标题归纳题。本文主讲通过实验证明了乌鸦也是有智慧的，故B项正确。56Death has been around for only a small percentage of the time that life has been on our planet./Death has been around for a short period of time on our planet.57Developed./Grew.58Yes.They die from being run over by a rolling stone，or from being eaten
