　　[阅读选择]On the other hand， on the moon there will be an attraction between the butter and the moon; but the butter will weigh only about one-sixth as much as it does on the earth. This is because the moon is so much smaller than the earth. The amount of gravitational pull that a body produces depends on the amount of material in it. A packet of butter has a gravitational pull of its own; but this is very small in relation to the pull of something as large as the moon， or the earth， or the sun.

　　5.单选题

　　[阅读理解]In the digital realm， the next big advance will be voice recognition. The rudiments are already here but in primitive form. Ask a computer to “recognize speech，” and it is likely to think you want it to “wreck a nice beach.” But in a decade or so we‘ll be able to chat away and machines will soak it all in. Microchips will be truly embedded in our lives when we can talk to them. Not only to our computers， we’ll also be able to chat with our automobile navigation systems， telephone consoles， browsers， thermostats. VCRs， microwaves and any other devices we want to boss around.

　　The techniques of voice recognition______.

　　A、are mature enough for extensive use

　　B、are in its initial stage of development

　　C、will aid people to chat through computers

　　D、will assist people to recognize each other‘s voice

　　正确答案：B

　　答案解析：答案选B。本段的第一句、第二句提供了答案。 A不是正确选项，因为根据整篇文章，尤其是本段的内容，语音识别技术虽然处于初始阶段，但在十年左右的时间里，这种技术将得到广泛应用。语音技术使人们得以和机器对话，所以C和D都是错误的选项。

　　6.单选题

　　[阅读理解]The other side of a state legal apparatus is a state military apparatus. While the one protects the individual from violence， the other sacrifices the individual to violence in the interests of the state. In war the state affirms supreme power over the individuals within its own borders. War is not simply a trial by combat to settle disputes between states; it is the moment when the state makes its most powerful demands upon its people for their commitment， allegiance， and supreme sacrifice.

　　The word “allegiance” is closest in meaning to ______.

　　A、loyalty

　　B、objective

　　C、survival

　　D、motive

　　正确答案：A

　　答案解析：解本题可用同类词关系进行判断。在“allegiance”前后的两个词分别是commitment和 sacrifice，应能判断出这三个词相对于国家而言是同一类词，再利用排除法，不难选出正确答案A。

　　7.单选题

　　[阅读理解]Parents and kids today dress alike， listen to the same music， and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes， when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter， Elizabeth， listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy， such as pop culture， he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.

　　“I would never have said to my mom， ‘Hey， the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?’” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”

　　Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations， earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.

　　The word “gulf” most probably means _______.

　　A、interest

　　B、distance

　　C、hope

　　D、separation

　　正确答案：D

　　答案解析：“gulf”一词是“海湾”的意思，由上文中提到的 “…he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager”以及“There was just a complete gap in taste”推出gulf并不是“海湾”而是表示两代人之间关系的“代沟”。separation指“分开，分离”。一般情况下，上下文所提示的意义与所考词汇通常是同义、反义或针对性解释的关系，可直接确定词义。

　　.单选题

　　[阅读理解]A new study has found no evidence that sunscreen， commonly used to reduce the risk of skin cancer， actually increase the risk.

　　Researchers from the University of Iowa based their findings on a review of 18 earlier studies that looked at the association between sunscreen use and melanoma (黑素瘤)。 They said that they found flaws in studies that had reported associations between sunscreen use and higher risk of melanoma.

　　The word “flaws” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means _______.

　　A、evidence

　　B、facts

　　C、faults

　　D、failures

　　正确答案：C

　　答案解析：本段中已表明：到目前为止还没证据能证明sunscreen会增加skin cancer的几率，接下来的段落也解释了使用sunscreen跟skin cancer没有必然的联系，故排除A、B、D选项。
