  大学英语四级选词填空训练题答案

  1.选M)。此处应填名词,作介词of的宾语,作为后置定语修饰earthquake,说明该名词是“地震”的自然属性。选项中的名词有changes,safety,intensity和security,只有intensity可以表示地震的强度,故选M)。

  2.选G)。此处应填副词,用来修饰形容词less。选项中的副词有relatively“相对的”和accordingly“相应的”,第一段说这次地震和1998年的那次地震程度一样,但造成的损失却小很多,再从后句中“高速路上的车辆不是很多”可以推断:这次的地震造成的“死伤人数”与1998年比少很多,即少是相对的,故选G)relatively。

  3.选A)。空格中要填的词是本句话中的主语,应为名词。这句话的主干是have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways,从第三段的内容和注释3的解析可知:建筑结构发生了变化,故应选择A)changes。

  4.选I)。此处应填形容词,和其前面的more构成形容词的比较级,描述新型建筑与地震有关的性能。them = the city’s buildings and highways, have strengthened "被加固"说明他们更有抵御风险的能力了。选项中的四个形容词只有resistant符合这个意思,故选I)。

  5.选B)。此处应填形容词,修饰名词materials。从后面的...bent without breaking "即使弯曲也不会折断",说明是有韧性的材料。选项中的四个形容词只有flexible表示“柔韧的,可变形的”,故B)正确。

  6.选F)。此处应填名词。根据上下文insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation“在建筑物和地基之间填充橡胶和钢材”是为了减少the impact of ground vibrations"地面震动对建筑物的影响"。选项中decrease和reduce都可以表示“减少”的意思,前者指稳定的逐步地减少,后者强调在大小、程度或强度方面下降或减少。故F)reduce更符合题意。

  7.选D)。根据注释3,可以推知,这里要填的词是和前面的In the past, Laer相对应的,选项中的形容词中只有recent可表示时间,the mostrecent desighs“最近的设计”,在原文中可以对应“过去,后来”,故D)为正确答案。

  18.选K)。前面提到了智能建筑,这里说明当地震使这样的建筑向前倒的时候,电脑会怎样它,使它相反方向移动。在动词push和force之间悬着。push强调的是外加的力量,而这里的拖力者是与智能建筑一体的计算机系统,故这里force符合文意。

  9.选N)。此后应填名词,做动词offer的宾语。本句前面一直在描述新型建筑采取的抗震措施,本句是这些措施的结果。抗震型建筑为城市提供的应该是更多的安全保障,选项中表示“安全”的词有safety和security,前者是处于安全状态,不受伤害,没有危险,多用于人身,货物。后者常指国家社会的免遭战争,灾难而安然无恙,故N)security更符合文意。

  10.选J)。此处应填形容词。从后面的However后的一句说明智能建筑的优点而得知,However前所说的是智能建筑的缺点。既然智能建筑很聪明,又是新事物,那么建造起来肯定会耗费很多资金的,所以选J)expensive。
