In former times, people suffering an infectious disease were put apart until they were better. C) put forward 意思是move ( sth. ) into a position further in front 把（某物）移往靠前一点；e . g . Why don’t you put your chair forward and have a better view? D)put down放下；记录下来；写下来。根据本题意思，B）put… away 为正确答案。 55. 【参考译文】安德森一家还没到，我现在怀疑他们是否会到。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题。主要考查搭配及用法。【详细解答】turned up ( = to arrive or be found, often unexpectedly) 到达或被发现，往往带有偶然性。B）turn in 转身进入；拐入；B）和C）都不是本题要求，不能入选。D）come in 进入（某一个地方）；走进去。人在现场才能进入房间或某一地方；如果人不在现场就不存在进不进来的问题。 56. 【参考译文】我们必须非常准确地在同一时间出发，所以我们对了对手表。【试题分析】本题为词尾形近词用法辨析题。A项为陪衬选择，其它词结尾近似。【详细解答】synchronized (使)在时间上一致。A) transfix 刺穿；B）stabilize使安全；使巩固；C）temporize姑息，妥协。 57. 【参考译文】政府号召人民要节约用燃油。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题，主要考查短语的固定搭配和习惯用法。【详细解答】call on意思是“号召”；call in意思是“收回”；call off意思是“决定取消”； call up意思是“打电话给…”。故选 C。 58. 【参考译文】宾馆建造得过多，加速了住宿价格的下降，使得度假更加经济。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题。【详细解答】forced down加速下降。B）slow使慢下来；使（市场等）变得呆滞；可以说slow up(down)a motor-car（放慢汽车速度），但不能说slow down prices; C)cut down 削弱；缩短；可以说cut down expenses(削减开支)，但不能说cut down prices. e.g. That with increased taxation and rising prices, I’m going to have to cut down on quite a lot of things—clothes, records and so on. D)reduce减少，降低（速度，成本等）；reduce在用作减少开支的意义时可和cut down，互换，如reduce expenses可以换成cut down expenses。 59. 【参考译文】罗妮的脚步声消失了，接下来是一阵死一般的寂静。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题，考查die短语的含义和用法。【详细解答】die away(=become weaker or fainter until it ceases)（声音、风、光等）变弱、变小、直到消失。A）die down 平息；熄灭； 静下来；C）die off 一个个死掉；绝种；枯死：e.g. The species is dying off.（这个物种正濒临灭绝。）D）die out 熄灭；绝种；不复存在。在作“绝种”用时和die off 意义相同。e.g. This bird is dying out。（这种鸟快要绝种了。）根据题意，选B比较合适，其它均不可取。 60. 【参考译文】如此自私的人很难让人同情。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题，也即为短语辩析题。【详细解答】feel for对（某人）感到同情；同情（某人）。A）feel like想（做某事）；愿意。e.g. I’m tired. I feel like going to bed.（我累了，想睡觉。)B）feel out 试探；摸清（某人的想法）。D）feel towards感觉；e.g. How do you feel towards the new teacher?（你对新来的老师感觉怎么样？）根据题意，选C最合适。 61. 【参考译文】如果你不能在一星期内把商品退给商店的话，你就会失去退款的机会。【试题分析】本题为搭配辨析题。【详细解答】forfeit丧失（权利、名誉、生命等）；（作为惩罚被没收或被剥夺而）失去。A）take a (the) chance 的意思是碰碰运气，冒风险（也许会…）。e.g. Let’s take the chance and buy these goods.(让我们冒冒风险，就买这些货物吧。) C) stand a (good, fair) chance很可能（成功）。 e.g. He doesn’t stand a chance of being elected.(他没有希望当选。)D）get the chance得到机会；有机会。C）和D）均不符合题意，不能入选。 62. 【参考译文】这位机械工专门从事汽车修理。【试题分析】本题为形近词辨析题，四个选项虽都有前缀ex-，但含义却大相径庭。【详细解答】A）excessively过多地，过分地，极度地；B）experimentally实验性地；C）exceedingly非常地，超越地，极度地；D）exclusively专门地，唯一地。 63. 【参考译文】来自不同文化背景的人们应互相了解，相互信任，这一点很重要，只有人们互相信任，合作才有可能。【试题分析】本题测试难词辨析，要求考生对其掌握区别。【详细解答】mutual相互的。A）confidential信任的；B）integral完整的；D） rational理智的。很显然，只有C）符合题意。 64. 【参考译文】汤姆想当一名律师，因为他觉得律师是个有名望体面的职业，而且他一直想占据高位。【试题分析】本题为形近词辨析题。这四个词都为形容词，且词尾都含有后缀-ous ，但也是难词辨析题。【详细解答】prestigious有声望的，A） homogeneous同性质的；C）jealous妒忌的；D）spontaneous自发的，自动的。所以只有B与题意相符。 65. 【参考译文】1929年股市暴跌，标志着经济大萧条的开始。【试题分析】本题为考查对关键词语义的理解，当然，本题也是词语辨析。【详细解答】collapse暴跌。A）rise上升；C）rebirth重出；D）debt负债，很显然，只有B符合题意。 66. 【参考译文】价格继续上涨，而工资仍然很低，结果政府变得越来越不得人心。【试题分析】此题考查考生对引导状语从句连接词的理解。【详细解答】with the result that 从而，因此（用来引导一个结果状语从句）。A）even though (if)即使，纵然（用来引导一个让步状语从句）。D）because因为（引导一个原因状语从句）。从这几个词组和单词的用途来分析，C）with the result that 引导的结果状语从句，符合本题的因果关系；物价上涨和政府不受欢迎的因果关系，所以C）为正确答案，其它各项均不适用。 67. 【参考译文】得克萨斯占美国广大国土的十二分之一。【试题分析】此题为词义辨析题。【详细解答】constitute组成；构成。A）govern统治（国家等）；治理（城市、国家等）。B)demand要求；需要；需求。D）produce生产；提出。C）为正确答案。 68. 【参考译文】这些印第安人看不到成功的前景，变得很沮丧，因为他们就读的学校比较差，而且也不适应城市生活。【试题分析】此题为词义辨析题，根据题意进行判断。【详细解答】prospect前景，前程；前途。A）instinct本能；生性。B）proposition主张；建议。C）priority优先权，重点。从本题题意不难看出，只有D才符合要求。 69. 【参考译文】飞行中后货仓门被撕开后，飞机严重受损。【试题分析】此题为词义辨析题，又是近义词辨析题。注意B、C两词的区别。【详细解答】pull off拖出；撕开；扯破。A）jam 拥塞。B）open打开；展开；发展。D）crumple up弄皱；起皱；扭弯。注意pull off和open之间的区别。open的打开，可能有人为的因素或自然的因素，但不是破坏性的打开，不构成危险。但pulled off 的意思是撕开，扯破。所以B）不适合用于本句，不能入选。 70. 【参考译文】孩子的宴会过后，她得花两个钟头收拾起居室。【试题分析】此题为近义词辨析题，需根据题意进行选择。【详细解答】tiding up (put…in proper order ; make…neat and tidy(整理，拾掇)；A)order 在做动词时意思是“安排”，与arrange可以互换。e.g. order (arrange) sth. properly(把事情安排好)。B）arrange安排；布置，含有按照一定规划或计划进行布置的意思。D)clear away清除，收起来，拿走，含有remove or take away 的意思。当我们说“收拾房间”，可以说tidy up the room, 不能说clear away the room. clear away含有“清除掉”的意思。所以本题答案为C。
