2016研究生考試英語(yǔ)二真題及答案(2)
【答案】C
【解析】空格處的內(nèi)容與inclination for risk-taking由and連接,構(gòu)成并列關(guān)系,后面that come with happiness定語(yǔ)從句既修飾空格處的內(nèi)容,也修飾inclination for risk-taking,所以選項(xiàng)中可以由that come with happiness修飾的只有C選項(xiàng)optimism。
5. [A] echo [B] miss [C] spoil [D] change
【答案】D
【解析】空格處的內(nèi)容和the way companies invested構(gòu)成動(dòng)賓搭配。只有D選項(xiàng)可以和the way companies invested構(gòu)成通順語(yǔ)義。故D項(xiàng)正確。
6. [A] imagined [B] measured [C] invented [D] assumed
【答案】B
【解析】原文:So they compared U.S. cities' average happiness_______ by Gallup polling with the investment activity of publicly traded firms in those areas. 所以他們比較美國(guó)城市的平均幸福,這種幸福是根據(jù)蓋洛普在上市公司的投資活動(dòng)地區(qū)民意調(diào)查來(lái)________。 A imagined 想象,D assumed 假定與民意調(diào)查的客觀性是不符的,故排除,C invented 發(fā)明,與文意不符,故選B measured,衡量,測(cè)量。
7. [A] sure [B] odd [C] unfortunate [D] often
【答案】A
【解析】此空的答案需要結(jié)合文章上下文來(lái)判斷。這句話和本篇完型的第二段的首句的含義是相同的。本段首句其實(shí)是對(duì)于這一中心的重復(fù)闡述,因此選A。
8. [A] advertised [B] divided [C] overtaxed [D] headquartered
【答案】D
【解析】原文:firms' investment and R intensity were correlated with the happiness of the area in which they were _________.公司的投資與研發(fā)強(qiáng)度與公司所_______的地區(qū)的幸福度相關(guān)。依據(jù)第7題的答案,我們可以推斷,這句話所填寫的單詞和located應(yīng)該是近義,故選D,headquartered設(shè)立總部。
9. [A] explain [B] overstate [C] summarize [D] emphasize
【答案】A
【解析】原文:…could something else about happier cities ______ why firms there spend more on R 此句也是對(duì)于本文中心的再次論證。還有其他的什么可以__________公司在幸福的城市加入研發(fā)投入力度嗎? 這句話之后就是具體的原因陳述。故選A express 解釋,闡釋。

11. [A] desirable [B] sociable [C] reputable [D] reliable
