>>>2017年湖北自考公共課串講練習(xí)題【匯總】

[閱讀理解]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

正確答案：C

答案解析：本段中已表明：到目前為止還沒證據(jù)能證明sunscreen會(huì)增加skin cancer的幾率，接下來的段落也解釋了使用sunscreen跟skin cancer沒有必然的聯(lián)系，故排除A、B、D選項(xiàng)。

2.單選題

[閱讀理解]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

正確答案：D

答案解析：“gulf”一詞是“海灣”的意思，由上文中提到的 “…h(huán)e 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“海灣”而是表示兩代人之間關(guān)系的“代溝”。separation指“分開，分離”。一般情況下，上下文所提示的意義與所考詞匯通常是同義、反義或針對(duì)性解釋的關(guān)系，可直接確定詞義。
