  1.答案:C

  参考译文:肺癌和其他癌症一样经常没有症状直到晚期扩散到脑、肝和骨头才会有症状产生。

  题目分析:本题的题干部分包含了三个语法现象.第一是插入结构,即两个逗号之间的部分like some other cancers,插入结构在句中不作任何成分,在阅读中如果能够直接看出一句话中的插入结构,就能够排除干扰,对快速理解句子的大意很有帮助.第二个是 not...until...结构.第三个是too...to...结构.虽然后两个结构在中学我们就已经学过,但在新题型的翻译中还是经常会出现的.另外作文中也可以使用这样的表达,对获得高分很有帮助.

  考点解析:本题主要是考察对选项四个词语意思的辨别.由题意可知应该选择含有症状意思的词语,即symptom.

  注意:

  1)trail的词性,既可以做名次也可以做动词.

  2)symptom和symbol无论是形状还是意思都比较接近,务必将两个词加以区分.

  2.答案:A

  参考译文:随着上升的失业率,五六十岁的工人经常是最早的一批被解雇的。

  题目分析:题干的前半句为状语,后半部分为主句,且句中包含一个定语从句.

  考点解析:本题主要考查动词lay与介词构成的动词短语的意思的辨析。出了题目中出现的四种固定搭配,还有lay down:放下,交出;规定,制定。lay over:做短暂停留.

  3.答案:B

  参考译文:男女有别从早期的男人狩猎和女人哺育延伸了下来。

  题目分析:本题的题干结构比较简单.

  考点解析:本题主要是考察对选项四个词汇意思的辨析,根据题意可知应选择具有追溯意思的词汇,即trace.

  注意:

  1)trace是四级考试中比较容易出现的词汇,且它的意思比较多,词性既可以做名次又可以做动词,一定特别及一下这个词.

  2)pursue的词性为动词,其名次为pursuit,注意辨析.
