We ________ to finish the project before dark, but the heavy traffic held us up. A. plan B. were planning

31、C. had planned D. are planning 答案 C 解析 句意：我們?cè)?jì)劃在天黑前完成這個(gè)項(xiàng)目，但擁擠的交通耽擱了我們。后一分句用了一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)，結(jié)合句意可知前一分句所述情況發(fā)生在過(guò)去的過(guò)去，故用過(guò)去完成時(shí)態(tài)。 31. — Hi, Robert.

To believe 答案 B 解析 句意：許多人認(rèn)為地球是平的，擔(dān)心哥倫布會(huì)從地球的邊緣掉下去。believe與句子主語(yǔ)為邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，且feared與believe無(wú)時(shí)間上的先后之分，故選B項(xiàng)。 34. Laug

34、hter is good medicine. Scientists believe that it ________ the heart and lungs. A. cures B. stresses C. weakens D. strengthens 答案 D 解析 句意：笑是一劑良藥?？茖W(xué)家認(rèn)為它可以增強(qiáng)心肺功能。strengthen“增強(qiáng)；加強(qiáng)”符合句意。 35.

35、. so C. or D. for 答案 A 解析 句意：已經(jīng)跟他講過(guò)很多次了，但是他還是記不住這個(gè)詞語(yǔ)的漢語(yǔ)意思?？仗幟黠@表示轉(zhuǎn)折，故用but。 第二節(jié) 完形填空(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分) 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。 It was an unforgettable experience.

A new research project will develop systems that allow men and machines to debate decisions. It opens up the possibility of human operators discussing action plans with robots and,

62、if necessary, ordering them to break rules. For their part, the computers would be able to argue in favour of decisions or inform their operators that certain tasks are impossible. Early versions of the software could be available in just three years. Lead researcher Dr. Wamberto Vasconcelos, from

63、the University of Aberdeen, said the aim is to increase human trust in intelligent technology. Talking computers with the ability to converse with humans have long been a support of science fiction. Examples include Hal, the deadpan-voiced computer in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, which goes mad

64、and sets out to murder the crew of a spaceship. The system Dr. Vasconcelos is developing will communicate with words on a computer screen rather than speech. Potentially it can be used to accomplish unmanned robot missions to planets or the deep sea, defense systems and exploring the enemy environm

65、ents such as the nuclear base. “Ultimately, this conversation is to ensure that the system is one the human is comfortable with. But the dialogue will be a two-way thing. The supervisor might not like a particular solution but the computer might say ‘Sorry, this is all I can do.’” Conversing with

66、robots would actually make humans more responsible, since failures could not conveniently be blamed on computer error, Dr. Vasconcelos added. “With power also comes responsibility. All these dialogues are going to be recorded, so there is a name to blame if something goes wrong. It’s a good side effect.” 60. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text? A.
