答案解析：

36. essential

解析：此处需要形容词，注意双写s和词尾tial。

37. amazing

解析：此处是现在分词用作形容词，不可遗漏-ing。注意不要写成形似近音词amusing。

38. enables

解析：此处需要动词作谓语，用法是接不定式作宾语补足语。注意that指代的是this magical time machine，故该谓语动词用第三人称单数。

39. Discovering

解析：此处需要动名词作主语，注意ing。由于此词位于句首，因此要大写首字母D。

40. preserves

解析：此处需要与makes并列的动词，注意开头的p不要漏掉。

41. pursuits

解析：根据one of和all可知此处需要名词复数形式，拼写时注意ur和ui。

42. apologize

解析：根据must可知此处需要动词原形。

43. compromised

解析：根据has been和by可知此处需要过去分词表示被动，所以不要漏写词尾d。

44. 标准答案：All the rest of us must accept the responsibility to make an effort to remember things 听音关键：the rest，responsibility，remember

答案重构：All the others must accept the responsibility to try to remember things

画龙点睛：此题可采用同义替换法简化。

45. 标准答案：Students and faculty should understand that

a good education involves an emphasis on understanding rather than sheer memorization

听音关键：students，faculty，good education，emphasis，understanding

答案重构：Students and faculty should know that a good education emphasizes understanding more than sheer

memorization

画龙点睛：关键是要抓住主谓宾和比较结构

46. 标准答案：If you want to retain what you learn, you must spread out the learning process

听音关键：to retain，must spread，learning process

答案重构：To remember/memorize what you learn, you must spread out the learning process

画龙点睛：根据上下文，此处的retain就是remember/memorize的意思，不会写可以替换。此处的条件状语从句也可改写为不定式结构。

Test 2

Section C

One afternoon recently, two (36) ______ friendscalled to tell me that, well, their marriages hadn'tmade it. One was leaving his wife for another woman.The other was leaving her husband because "wethought it best".

As always after such (37) ______ common calls, I felt (38) ______ and angry. What hadhappened to those (39) ______ vows that they (40) ______ on their wedding ceremony?Given the era and their feelings, their decisions probably made (41) ______ . What angers mewas the loss of years and energy. It was an

anger similar to that I feel when I see (42) ______foundations of building projects--piled bricks and girders and a gash in the ground left todepress the passerby.

When our grandparents married, seldom couples (43) ______ . "As long as we both shall live"was no joke. After their vows, couples learned to live with each other--not necessarily becausethey love each other, (44) ____________________________________________________ .

Most of the external pressures that helped to enforce our grandparents' vows havedissolved. Women can earn money and may enjoy sex, even bear children, without marrying.As divorce becomes more common, some divorcees even argue (45) ___________________________________________________________ .

In some respects, this freedom can be seen as social progress. (46) ____________________________________________ .

答案解析：

36. unrelated

解析：前缀un-表示否定意义，unrelated意为“没有关联的”。

37. increasingly

解析：此词修饰形容词或副词，表示“越来越”，注意不要漏了结尾的-ly。

38. helpless

解析：前面是系动词felt，因此这里一定需要形容词形式，不要错写成helply。

39. solemn

解析：容易漏写n，因此此处n不发音;也有少数人会漏写m，或将n写成e。

40. swore

解析：根据上下文，此处用的是一般过去时的时态，不要写成swear，当然更不可杜撰成swar。

41. sense

解析：make sense固定搭配，意为“有意义”。

42. abandoned

解析：不要写成abandon，abandoned在此作形容词，修饰foundations，意为“被抛弃的”。

43. divorced

解析：注意时态，应用过去时，不要写成divorce。

44. 标准答案：not necessarily because they love each other, but because they were stuck, and it was better to be stuck comfortably than otherwise

听音关键：not necessarily, love each other, stuck, better to be stuck comfortably than otherwise

答案重构：1). not necessarily because of love, but because

they were always together with each other, which was better than get divorced

2). there might not be much love, but they just stayed together, and it was better to stay together comfortably than get divorced

画龙点睛：句中的be stuck意为“长期(和某人)在一起”;otherwise此处意即“离婚”。be stuck(词语本身不难，难在一下子可能想不起来)可以用get/stay together替换。

45. 标准答案：that divorce is beneficial, educational, that the second or third marriage is "the best", and the only reason left to marry is love

听音关键：divorce is beneficial，educational，the second or third marriage is "the best", the only reason left to marry is love

答案重构：1). that divorce is good and educatioanl, that the second or third marriage is "the best", and that one may keep a marriage only because of love

2). that divorce is good and educational, that it is best to have a second or third marriage, and that only love is the rightful reason for marriage

画龙点睛：要听写的部分实际上是argue的三个宾语从句，这几个从句之间是并列关系，每个从句单独来看并不复杂。所以，句子

结构基本上没有什么可变动之处。在词汇层面上，beneficial可用good替换，the best勉强可以用perfect代替。

46. 标准答案：In other respects, our rapidly-rising divorce rate and the declining marriage rate represent a loss 听音关键：In other respects, rapidly-rising divorce rate, the declining marriage rate, represent a loss

答案重构：1). In other respects, our rapidly-rising divorce rate and declining marriage rate can be seen as a loss

2). In other respects, it is a sign of loss to have a rapid-rising divorce rate and a declining marriage rate 画龙点睛：前一句有In some respects，与此句中的In other respects形成照应。本句与前一句是对比关系，represent也可以用前一句中的can be seen as替换。句中的rising divorce rate和declining marriage rate是语义上的对比，相关词汇原文均出现过，应该不难写出。此外，若按原文写出rapidly，注意用连词符把它与rising连写。

Test 1

Section C

As men age, they (36) ______ get less and lessdeep sleep--a fact that could be (37) ______ to theweight gain that often middle-age, medicalresearchers said this week.

The (39) ______ between sleep and "love handles" (俚语，腰部赘肉), double chins and expanding paunch (大肚子) centers on a hormone normally(40) ______ during deep sleep, the scientists from the University of Chicago reported in theAugust 16 (41) ______ of The Journal of the American Medical Association.

With less deep or slow-wave sleep, there is less bodily production of the growth hormone.That deficiency is (42) ______ with increased fat tissue and abdominal obesity, reducedmuscle mass and strength and reduced exercise capacity. These results are particularly notedin the (43) ______ .

The researchers found that deep sleep in men younger than 25 was about 20 percent of anight's sleep. (44) ______________________________________________________ . Afterage 35, it's 5 percent or less. By the time men reach 45, they have nearly lost the ability to fallinto deep sleep and (45) ________________________________ .

The researchers said any treatment to improve a man's sleep would need to begin at age 35-40. A new drug is tested to see if it will increase deep sleep. Methods other than medicine canboost deep sleep--for example, increasing body heat by taking a hot bath before bed. (46)

________________________________________ .

答案解析：

36. typically

解析：通过预读可以发现这句话的主、谓、宾语都完整，而且要听写的词在动词前，可以判断出此处填写一个副词。但词尾ly容易被忽略。考生可通过分析句子成分，更加准确判断词汇的形式。第2个字母y不要误写成i。

37. connected

解析：be connected to是固定搭配，不要忘了在connect后加-ed。

38. accompanies

解析：由于主语是单数形式，因此即使没有听出ies也要将其补充完整，而不能写成原形accompany。

39. link

解析：通过预读从"between... and... "可以知道本句讨论的应是“睡眠和腰间赘肉、双下巴等之间的关系”，因此是link，而不是leak(泄露)。

40. produced

解析：要填写的词汇在副词后，与normally和during deep sleep一同作hormone(荷尔蒙)的后置定语，在意义上有被动的含义，故要用produced，-ed不要忘了。

41. issue

解析：issue为四级重要词汇，在此意为“(杂志的某一)期”，可以根据前面的August和后面的Journal预测到，关键是要拼写正确，注意双写s。

42. associated

解析：不要写成：associate。be associated with为固定搭配，意思是：与……相互联系。即使没听出来，-ed也不应漏掉。

43. elderly

解析：elderly a.过了中年的，稍老的。the elderly指老年人。

44. 标准答案：Between age 25 and 35, the deep sleep drops to about 12 percent

听音关键：age 25 and 35，deep sleep，about 12 percent 答案重构：1). When one is between age 25 and 35, his deep sleep reduces to about 12 percent

2). The deep sleep for men of 25 to 35 falls to about 12%

画龙点睛：此句比较简单，抓住：25-35，deep sleep，12 percent，就容易完成。drop表示“下降”，可以用reduce，decrease，fall等词替换。若改变句型，变换主语，则需要注意主谓一致。

45. 标准答案：after age 50, men's total sleep declines by about 27 minutes per decade of age

听音关键：50，total sleep declines，27 minutes per decade 答案重构：1). after age 50, their total sleep will reduce

about 27 minutes for every ten years

2). after 50, their total sleep will keep declining at the rate of about 27 minutes every ten years

画龙点睛：per decade of age意思是“每10年”。如果怕写错decade一词，可换成every ten years。

46. 标准答案：Exercising at least 20 minutes three or four times a week is also helpful

听音关键：Exercising，20 minutes three or four times a week，helpful

答案重构：1). It's helpful to do exercises for over 20 minutes three or four times a week

2). Exercising regularly-over 20 minutes each time, three or four times a week-also helps

画龙点睛：本句的难点在于完整地听写出at least 20 minutes three or four times a week。没有生词，只是担心内容会有缺漏。
