文化思辨英语期末答案2023秋

1.Our scientists have every reason to ___________ pride___ being able to produce all these new seeds ___________.____________

答案:"AI参考:填空题答案为： Our scientists have every reason to __take pride in___ being able to produce all these new seeds __themselves____. 解释：这句话的意思是“我们的科学家有充分的理由为自己能够生产出这些新种子而感到自豪。”其中，take pride in 表示“对……感到自豪”，而 being able to produce all these new seeds __themselves____. 表达的是被动语态，强调主动创造的结果，而不是创造者的身份。所以这里需要填入的是oneself，表示这些种子是他们自己创造的。"
2.How much do you know about Isis? ( )

答案:"AI参考:对于“Isis”这个单词，我会根据常规的英语知识给出以下选项： 1. **Isis is a goddess**：Isis是古埃及神话中的一位女神，是许多神灵的母亲和妻子。 2. **Isis is a famous terrorist organization**：Isis（伊希斯）也指的是一个著名的恐怖组织，与埃及神话中的女神Isis没有任何关系。 3. **I dont know much about Isis**：我只知道Isis是古埃及神话中的一个重要神灵，对于其与恐怖组织的关联并不了解。 因此，对于“How much do you know about Isis?”这个问题，我的答案是：我对Isis的了解主要在于她是古埃及神话中的一位女神。如果问题中明确提到Isis是恐怖组织，那么我的回答就会有所不同。对于第二个选项，它涉及到的是另一个完全不同的主题，与我的答案没有关联。而最后一个选项，是我对于当前问题的回答。总的来说，我会尽可能给出准确的答案，但由于可能存在的混淆信息或错误理解，我的答案并不能保证完全正确。"
3.He is_________________ ( ) willing to help.
A:more than B:glad C:good D:better
答案:AI参考:正确选项是D:better。\n\n句子中使用了比较级结构“more than”，表示“比……更”，因此需要用形容词的比较级形式。而选项D中的“better”是形容词比较级，符合句意。其他选项不符合语境，不符合句意。因此，正确答案是D。句子意思是“他比任何人都更愿意帮助别人”。'
4.You can always come to me if you _____ need help. （ ）
A:should B:could C:would D:shall
答案:AI参考:正确选项是B:could。\n\n在这个句子中，“if you ___ need help”是一个条件状语从句，表示如果需要帮助的话，你可以随时来找我。在这个语境下，“could”表示一种委婉的建议或请求，符合句意。而“should”表示应该，不符合语境；“would”表示过去经常性的动作或状态，与句意不符；“shall”在这里不常用，通常用于将来时态。因此，正确答案是B。'
5.What does the title Mean?（ )
A:It refers to the Zoo in Central Park. B:It symbolizes the fear Central Park inspires.
答案:AI参考:正确答案是B:It symbolizes the fear Central Park inspires.\n\n题目要求解释标题的含义，而根据题目给出的选项和句子结构分析，正确答案是B，即“它象征着中央公园引起的恐惧”。这个标题暗示了作者对于中央公园的不安和恐惧感。选项A关于中央公园动物园的内容与题目无关。因此，答案为B。'
6.Only when he apologizes for his rudeness________________ ( ) to him again.
A:I speak[9.2.4] B:will I speak C:do I speak D:I will speak
答案:AI参考:答案为 C:do I speak\n这句话说的是：只有当他道歉他的粗鲁之后，我才再次跟他说话，Only+状语放在句首的时候，主句用部分倒装，也就是把助动词提到主语前面，这句话说的是中的助动词是do，主语是I，所以应该用do I speak，故选C。'

A:mystery B:interaction between living things and their surroundings C:human being’s activities D:witchcraft
答案:AI参考:正确答案是B:interaction between living things and their surroundings。\n\n地球上生命的历史就是生命与其周围环境相互作用的历史。A选项“神秘”和D选项“巫术”与题意不符，C选项“人类的活动”也与题意不符，因此只有B选项“生命与其周围环境相互作用”符合题意。'
8.Where did you come ___ this book? ( )
A:cross B:up C:to D:across
答案:AI参考:正确选项是C:to。\n\n这个问题是在询问某人是在哪里拿到这本书的，而come to是一个常见的固定搭配，表示“到达，来到”，因此选项C“to”是正确答案。其他选项A、B、D的意思与问题不符。A选项的“cross”意为“穿过”，B选项的“up”意为“向上”，D选项的“across”意为“在…对面”，这些词都不符合问题的语境。'
9.The publication of Great Expectations, which ____________( ) both widely reviewed and highly praised, strengthened Dickens’ status as a leading novelist.
A:is B:was C:are D:were
答案:AI参考:正确选项是B:was。\n\n句子中使用了which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词The publication of Great Expectations，从句中使用了被动语态，表示该出版物被广泛评论和高度赞扬，因此需要使用一般过去时的被动语态。因此，选项B was符合语境。选项A is一般用于表示事物当前的状态或情况，不符合语境；选项C和D为复数形式，但是句子中只有一个先行词，因此也不符合语境。'
