【答案】
* n4 ` ]' j$ p& `9 L7 S: c" C6 d 1.选C)。空格中要填的是名词,从后面的......can be captured and transmitted可以选出选项中images和pictures,pictures指“画面,图片”,一般指静态的情景;而文中的意思表达的是实时的电视会议,画面应该是动态的,images可以表示动态的形象,画面,故C)images正确。& R9 v7 p9 p* f. ?
2.选I)。这里应填形容词,修饰the technology。选项中的advanced,progressive,important可以用来修饰the technology,注释1说明了the technology中包含了很多行业术语,是很深奥的,排除important;而progressive“上进的,进步的”,强调寻求更好的,advanced“领先的,有高深的,并非人人都能接受的含义”,根据上下文I)advanced更符合题意。
4 M. l; N9 `7 k; F9 a/ u 3.选L)。首先判断这里应填名词,再根据注释2种“用于解释视频会议工作原理的......”,原文中有explain“解释,说明”可以退出,选项中的名词中concepts最符合题意。故选L)。
: G2 H% j& s6 q% Q4 X6 a 4.选O)。此处应填形容词。这个分句后面说交流越多,你越可能成为正确的那一个,说明交流很重要,与本土的视频会议-----一种交流的工具主题一致,这里应该填important。
, {% k, [; {1 @4 |! t7 w+ p) I, u# G( k 5.选G)。由空格后的ones可知,这里应填名词的复数形式。前面提到the more interaction..., the more likely...be the right ones“得到的交互信息越多,你的......就更有可能正确的”。人们通过电视会议谈判协商,了解得信息越多,自己的判断,决策才会更正确。故这里应填G)decisions。concepts“概念”是打扰项,这里和概念无关。
" ?: e' J7 m3 ] k 6.选E)。此处应填形容词。由上文Videoconferencing not only allows you to speak to people in different locations“视频会议不仅可以让你与不同地方的人说话”,...expressions and gestures that let you know what the other person is really thinking.“......表情和姿态,从而让你知道他们的真实想法”,很明显修饰expressions的应该是facial,意思是“面部表情”。
, D$ Z$ m8 |4 ?& v$ M 7.选B)。此处要填形容词,与more构成形容词比较级结构。从后文by sharing documents and computer application“通过共享文档和计算机应用,会议能更加......”,这里电话会议的优势,也是其目的,即提高效率,故这里应填B)effective。K)progressive“进步的”并不是电话会议要达到的目的,故排除。( _$ o! j$ h8 P* K; N* Z" I/ d" M
8.选F)。此处应填动词原形。选项中的动词原形有articulate,manage,integrate,connect,由原文可知,电视会议可以“共享文档和应用计算机”,而电话是不能做到的,以推断这里填的词表示“做到,实现”的词,故只有manage“设法,达成”符合文意。1 s* B+ f- w6 b/ }0 T
9.选N)。可以推断此处应填副词,选项中有fortunately和increasingly两个副词,本文全文都在说随着技术的发达,电视电话会议越来越受欢迎,所以应该是increasingly而不是fortunately“幸运地”。1 s5 z* v, ]6 m
10.选J)。此处应填动词原型,宾语是各种重要的会议工具。选项中还有articulate,integrate和connect三个位动词原形。其中aiticulate作“接合”意思讲的时候指的是单独的事物由关节连接,connect“连接”表示将分离的东西连接在一起,而integrate强调的是各种事物结合,形成一个整体。integrate正确,故选J)。 |
