參考答案及解析

2.譯文：若這類(lèi)魚(yú)已變得稀少，那么后人將無(wú)緣品嘗它們了。

答案為[A]：本題考點(diǎn)：形容詞近義詞辨析。[A]scarce（常作表語(yǔ)）稀缺的，珍貴的。[B]minimum更小的；[C]short短的，不足的；[D]seldom（副詞）很少，不常。

3.譯文：據(jù)當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙報(bào)道，該銀行昨天在光天化日之下遭搶劫。

答案為[B]：本題考點(diǎn)：非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)句意，“報(bào)道時(shí)，銀行已經(jīng)被搶”，因此只有[B]正確，是不定式的完成式。

4.譯文：農(nóng)業(yè)是人類(lèi)在發(fā)展史上邁出的一大步，在機(jī)器時(shí)代來(lái)臨之前，該進(jìn)步無(wú)與倫比。答案為〔A〕：本題考點(diǎn)：固定搭配。該句的選項(xiàng)由固定用法compare to演化而來(lái)，which即指 agriculture，是compare的賓語(yǔ)，故選[A]。

5.譯文：相同的因素使工資與物價(jià)一起上漲，二者互相攀升，水漲船高。

答案為 [C]：本題考點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞近義詞辨析。[C]reinforce， 加強(qiáng)，補(bǔ)充，符合句意。[A]increase，增加；[B]emphasize強(qiáng)調(diào)；[D]multiply增加，繁殖，使相乘。

6.譯文：沒(méi)有人告訴過(guò)史密斯第二天有講座。

8.譯文：在我回母親家的半路上，蘇珊趕上了我。

答案為[C]：本題考點(diǎn)：when和 while的辨析。when后往往接瞬間動(dòng)詞，而后往往接持續(xù)性動(dòng)詞。題中是一個(gè)瞬間動(dòng)作，所以選when.

9.譯文：由于溫度迅速下降，我們無(wú)法繼續(xù)實(shí)驗(yàn)了。

答案為[A]：本題考點(diǎn)：分詞獨(dú)立主格。分詞獨(dú)立主格前不能用連詞，只有with在此可以使用。選項(xiàng)[B]，[C]，[D]都是連接表示原因的從句。
