A
Generally
speaking,
waiting
rooms
are
always
filled
with
a
lot
of
impatient
people.
However,
a
project
carried
out
by?The
Observer?suggests
that
people
regard
these
spaces
as
a
place
of
refuge
(避难),
a
window
in
their
tightly
scheduled
lives.
Ella
Doroudy,?Margate?Station
We
were
at
the
beach
for
the
day,
and
now
are
on
our
way
home.
We
don’t
have
to
wait
very
long,
because
we
checked
the
timetable
so
we
got
here
in
time
for
the
train.
I
just
chat
with
my
mates,
really,
and
listen
to
music
until
the
train
comes.
Waiting
with
other
people
is
easier
because
you
can
kill
time
when
you’re
talking
about
stuff.
Caroline
Lacey,?Streatham?Dental?Center
I
don’t
really
get
nervous
about
seeing
the
dentist,
but
since
these
two
fillings
(补牙的材料)
came
out
I’ve
been
in
sharp
pain.
It’s
very
bright
and
airy
here,
so
it’s
quite
calming.
Usually
I
kill
time
by
reading
magazines.
I’ve
been
coming
to
the
dentist
as
and
when
I
need
to,
but
now
it’s
got
to
be
regular.
Katie
Hawkins,
Model
Casting
I
was
a
bit
late
today,
which
I’m
quite
pleased
about
because
some
of
these
girls
have
been
waiting
ages.
You
can’t
help
but
look
at
everyone
else
a
bit
—
you
look
at
the
other
girls
and
think:
“I
wonder
if
they’ll
like
her
better
than
they
like
me.”
While
I’m
waiting,
I’m
thinking:
“Oh
come
on.?I
do
have
a
life!”
Paul
Thomas,?Royal?London?Hospital
I
feel
pretty
indifferent
(满不在乎的)?
while
I’m
waiting
here,
to
be
honest.
It’s
something
I’ve
got
very
used
to
since
my
motorbike
accident
seven
years
ago.
I’ve
had
about
32
operations
so
far.
It’s
no
good
rushing
in
thinking
you’re
going
to
escape
in
five
minutes,
so
I
just
sit
back
and
people-watch,
really.

B
Throughout
history
scientists
have
risked
their
health
and
their
lives
in
their
search
for
the
truth.
Sir
Isaac
Newton,
the
seventeenth
century
scientist,
was
very
smart,
but
that
didn’t
stop
him
from
doing
some
pretty
stupid
things.
In
his
laboratory
in
Cambridge
he
often
did
the
strangest
experiments.
Once,
while
testing
how
light
passes
through
lenses
(晶状体),
he
put
a
long
needle
into
his
eye,
pushed
it
to
the
back,
and
then
moved
it
around
just
to
see
what
would
happen.
Luckily,
nothing
long-lasting
did.
On
another
occasion
he
stared
at
the
sun
for
as
long
as
he
could
bear,
to
discover
what
effect
this
would
have
on
his
sight.
Again
he
escaped
suffering?permanent?damage,
though
he
had
to
spend
some
days
in
a
darkened
room
before
his
eyes
recovered.
In
the
1750s
the
Swedish
chemist
Karl
Scheele
was
the
first
person
to
find
a
way
to
produce
phosphorus
(磷).
He
in
fact
discovered
eight
more
chemical
elements
including
chlorine
(氯),
though
he
didn’t
get
any
praise
for
them.
He
was
a
very
clever
scientist,
but
his
one
failing
was
a
curious
habit
of
tasting
a
little
of
every
substance
he
worked
with.
This
risky
practice
finally
caught
up
with
him,
and
in
1786
he
was
found
dead
in
his
laboratory
surrounded
by
a
large
number
of
dangerous
chemicals,
any
of
which
might
have
been
responsible
for
his
death.
Eugene
Shoemaker
was
a
respected
geologist.
He
spent
a
large
part
of
his
life
studying
craters
(火山口)
on
the
moon,
and
how
they
were
formed,
and
later
did
research
into
the
comets
of
the
planet
Jupiter.
In
1997
he
and
his
wife
were
in
the
Australian
desert
where
they
went
every
year
to
search
for
places
where
comets
might
have
hit
the
earth.
While
driving
in
the
Tanami
desert,
normally
one
of
the
emptiest
places
in
the
world,
another
vehicle
crashed
into
them
and
Shoemaker
was
killed
on
the
spot.
Some
of
his
ashes
(骨灰)
were
sent
to
the
moon
aboard
the
Lunar
Prospector
spacecraft
and
left
there?—?he
is
the
only
person
who
has
had
this
honor.
25.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“permanent”
in
Paragraph
2
mean?
A.
Brief.
B.
Slight.
C.
Lasting.
D.
Ordinary.
26.
What
did
Karl
Scheele
like
doing
when
performing
experiments?
A.
Tasting
chemicals.
B.
Staying
in
the
empty
lab.
C.
Experimenting
in
darkness.
D.
Working
together
with
others.
27.
What
special
honor
was
Shoemaker
given
after
his
death?
A.
He
was
buried
in
the
Tanami
desert.
B.
Some
of
his
ashes
were
placed
on
the
moon.
C.
One
comet
of
Jupiter
was
named
after
him.
D.
A
spacecraft
carrying
him
traveled
around
Jupiter.
28.
The
text
is
mainly
about
three
great
scientists’
_____.
A.
special
honors
B.
great
achievements
C.
famous
experiments
D.
suffering
in
the
job
C
Worldwide,
humans
use
about
1
trillion
plastic
bags
each
year.
But
experts
say
they’re
causing
major
trouble
for
the
environment.
That’s
why
cities
like
Austin,
Texas,
and
San
Francisco,
California,
have
banned
(禁止)
plastic
bags.
New
York
City
plans
to
charge
a
five-cent
fee
for
every
bag.
In
fact,
it
takes
10
to
20
years
for
a
plastic
bag
to
break
down.
Even
then,
tiny
pieces
of
the
bag
never
really
go
away.
Many
plastic
bags
get
washed
out
to
sea.
Thousands
of
sea
animals,
like
dolphins
and
whales,
die
each
year
because
of
plastic
bags.
Some
animals
think
the
bags
are
food
and
eat
them.
But
an
animal’s
body
can’t
process
(处理)
a
bag
like
it
processes
food.
The
bag
can
cause
a
very
slow,
painful
death
for
an
animal.
Sea
animals
aren’t
the
only
ones
eating
plastic.
The
chemicals
in
plastic
bags
can
get
into
the
ground
at
a
landfill
(垃圾填埋地).
The
chemicals
can
also
get
into
the
bodies
of
animals
we
eat.
That
means
the
chemicals
can
get
into
our
water
and
food.
Plastic
bags
were
first
introduced
in
1977.
People
thought
the
bags
were
much
better
than
paper
bags.
Plastic
bags
were
stronger
and
cheaper
to
make.
They
were
light
and
easy
to
use
and
store.
Plastic
bags
can
also
be
healthier
to
use.
Germs
from
raw
meat
and
vegetables
can
live
a
lot
longer
on
cloth
or
paper
bags
than
they
do
on
plastic
bags.
A
lot
of
people
say
that
getting
rid
of
plastic
bags
isn’t
necessary.
Instead,
they
want
to
reduce
the
number
of
bags
we
use.
New
York
City’s
bag
fee
is
one
way
to
do
that.
Shoppers
might
think
twice
before
using
a
plastic
bag
if
they
have
to
pay
for
it.
Most
Americans
already
reuse
plastic
bags.
Some
people
take
plastic
bags
back
to
the
store
the
next
time
they
shop.
Others
pack
their
lunches
in
them.
And
many
people
use
them
to
pick
up
after
their
dogs.
Some
stores
are
trying
bags
made
from
more
Earth-friendly
materials,
like
corn
(玉米).
But
it
is
not
clear
yet
if
these
will
help
the
environment.
29.
What’s
the
second
paragraph
mainly
about?
A.
The
value
of
plastic
bags.
B.
The
future
of
plastic
bags.
C.
The
danger
of
plastic
bags.
D.
The
processing
methods
of
plastic
bags.
30.
What
can
we
learn
about
plastic
bags
made
from
corn?
A.
They
prove
to
be
deadly
to
sea
animals.
B.
They
can
break
down
entirely
like
food.
C.
They
are
healthier
to
use
than
paper
bags.
D.
They
do
no
harm
to
the
environment.
31.
What’s
the
attitude
of
New
York
City
towards
plastic
bags?
A.
Their
usage
should
be
reduced.
B.
They
should
be
offered
for
free.
C.
They
should
be
banned
entirely.
D.
Their
materials
should
be
from
plants.
D
For
the
last
five
years,
I
have
been
fortunate
enough
to
work
on
a
large
vocabulary
research
project
for
Cambridge
English,
the?English
Vocabulary
Profile.
You
can
view
the
results
for
free
online
at
www.englishprofile.org.
Working
with
Carol
Cassidy,
we
developed
a
database
(数据库),
containing
the
words
and
phrases
that
learners
of
English
around
the
world
typically
know
and
use.
We
analysed
a
50-million-word
collection
of
learners’
writing
from
Cambridge
English
exams,
but
we
also
looked
at
the
vocabulary
taught
in
best-selling
British
and
American
English
course
books.
We
have
found
that
there
are
some
words
that
are
still
characteristically
British
or
American.
British
people
have
biscuits
with
their
cup
of
tea
or
coffee,
but
Americans
have?cookies.
We
have
cookies
too
in
Britain,
but
they
are
a
certain
type
of
biscuit,
such
as
chocolate
chip
cookies,
where
the
original
recipe
(配方)
is
American.
A
British
person?goes
on
holiday,
while
an
American
takes
a
vacation;
you
visit
a
city
centre?in
Britain
but?go
downtown?in
the
US.
A
few
words
have
different
meanings
across
the
two
varieties
of
English,
which
could
cause
some
embarrassment
(尴尬):
Americans
who
are
wearing
pants?have
their
legs
covered,
but
if
a
British
person
is
dressed
only
in
pants,
they
are
in
their
underwear
(clothes
that
you
wear
next
to
your
body
under
your
other
clothes)!
And
if
you
need
to
fill
up
your
car
with
fuel,
you
can
ask
for?gas?in
the
US,
but
you
need
to
buy?petrol?in
Britain,
as?“gas”?is
not
a
liquid
(液体)
in
British
English.
Overall,
though,
our
research
shows
that
British
and
American
English
are
still
very
close
to
each
other.
The
10
most
common
words
(the,
of,
to,
and,
a,
in,
that,
is,
for
and
I)
are
the
same
in
both
countries,
and
most
of
the
UK’s
5,000
most
common
words
are
also
in
the
USA’s
top
5,000.
32.
What
can
we
learn
about
the
project
the
author
worked
on?
A.
It
offers
vocabulary
courses
online.
B.
It
is
based
on
powerful
evidence.
C.
It
is
a
study
on
English
exams.
D.
It
aims
to
collect
new
words.
33.
What
may
British
people
refer
to
when
they
say
“cookies”?
A.
Tiny
chocolate
cakes.
B.
Biscuits
made
in
Britain.
C.
American
biscuit
recipes.
D.
A
variety
of
biscuit.
34.

sentence
may
be
proper
when
you
chat
with
British
people?
A.
My
car
has
run
out
of
liquid!
B.
It
is
great
to
wear
pants
for
the
party.
C.
I’ll
fill
my
car
up
with
gas
immediately.
D.
I
bought
the
pants
in
that
shop
yesterday.
35.
What
do
the
numbers
in
the
last
paragraph
show?
A.
British
and
American
English
are
still
very
similar.
B.
The
most
common
English
words
have
changed
greatly.
C.
Short
words
are
most
commonly
used
in
the
English
language.
D.
The
differences
between
British
and
American

are
obvious.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Time
is
on
your
side
How
frequently
do
you
say
“I
don’t
have
time”?
Quite
often,
I
guess.
Every
time
we
say
those
words,
they
make
us
feel
weak
and
out
of
control.
You
are
in
control
of
your
hours
and
your
life.??36?
I
know
it’s
not
as
easy
as
simply
turning
off
the
TV.
But
here
are
two
steps
that
will
help
you
take
back
control
and
get
time
on
your
side.
★?37?
Be
honest:
do
you
spend
an
hour
or
two
visiting
Weixin
and
QQ
every
day?
Are
you
spending
time
with
people
that
you
don’t
really
like
just
to
please
them?
Are
there
meetings
you
attend
that
you
can
politely
refuse?
It’s
time
to
get
real
about
the
hours
that
add
up
to
a
lot
of
dissatisfying
nothing.
Think
how
you
can
cancel
daily
activities
that
are
not
useful.??38?
★Change
your
language.
Words
matter.
They
have
power.
Saying?“I
don’t
have
time”?is
an
excuse
for
not
wanting
to
do
something.
Here
are
some
good,
empowering
alternatives
(选择):
“I
choose
not
to
start
that
project
until
next
year.”
“?39?”
“I’d
love
to
go
out
this
weekend
but
have
important
work
I
need
to
do
first.”
Get
better
at
saying
no.??40??Use
little
pockets
of
time
(friend
running
late,
car
stuck
in
traffic,
meeting
ending
10
minutes
early)
to
do
some
productive
thinking.
All
these
things
can
add
up
over
time
more
than
you
believe!
A.
Identify
your
blocks.
B.
But
you
are
likely
wasting
a
lot
of
it!
C.
I
really
don’t
have
enough
time
to
do
it.
D.
Replace
them
with
things
that
satisfy
you.
E.
Take
no
notice
of
all
those
unimportant
messages
on
your
phone.
F.
I’d
love
to
read
that
book
—
I’ll
get
to
it
after
my
homework
is
complete!
G.
When
you
don’t
have
a
plan
for
your
life,
someone
else
will
plan
it
for
you.

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
On
Monday,
April
20,
we
experienced
heavy
rain
and
fierce
winds.
During
a
break
in
the
weather
on
Tuesday
morning,
I
stupidly
decided
to??41??into
town
to
buy
some
food.
I
left
the
supermarket
around
10
am.??42?,
as
I
drove
the
six
kilometers
back
to
my
home,
the
weather
took
a
turn
for
the??43?.
It
was
raining
very??44??and
I
was
forced
to
take
a??45??I
don’t
usually
travel.
Nearing
my
town,
I
watched
as
the
water
level
on
the
road??46??in
front
of
me.
I
had
nowhere
to
go.
The
driver
of
a
four-wheel
drive
signaled
from
his
car
to
tell
me
not
to
try
and
cross
the??47??road.
Then
I
noticed
a
man
in
his
early
30s
in
his
front
yard??48??the
situation.
He
quickly
waved
to
me
to
come
and??49??in
his
driveway
away
from
the
rushing
water.
The
man
called
Trent
then??50??me
to
wait
inside
his
house.
I
told
him
I
was
concerned
about
the??51??to
my
father’s
car,
which
I
was
driving,??52??the
continuing
rain
started
to
turn
into
hail
(冰雹).?Trent?then
took
a
cover
from
his
garage
and??53??my
car
to
protect
it
from
the
hail.??54?,
his
efforts
saved
Dad’s
car
from
being
destroyed
by
the
hail.
While
waiting
for
the??55??to
improve,
I
learned
that
Trent
had??56??his
job
ten
months
ago
and
was
trying
his
hand
as
a
local
handyman
(做零活的人)
to
make
ends
meet.
By
12:30
pm
the
rain??57??so
I
asked?Trent?if
he
thought
it
would
be
safe
enough
to??58???—
he
told
me
it
was.
As
I
left,
I
insisted
on??59??two
of
his
business
cards,
and
my
father
has
since
called?Trent?to
offer
him??60??as
a

One
possible
version：
Dear
Tom,
I’m
sorry
to
hear
that
you
want
to
give
up
running
for
monitor
of
your
class
just
because
you
are
not
confident.?I’m
writing
to
persuade
you
not
to
do
that.
I’m
sure
that
you’re
equal
to
this
position.
First
of
all,
I
think
you
have
the
organizing
ability
because
you
once
organized
an
English
speech
contest
which
turned
out
to
be
a
great
success.
Secondly,
you
have
a
strong
sense
of
responsibility,
which
is
very
important
for
a
monitor.
Besides,
you
are
easy-going,
warm-hearted
and
reliable.
If
you
are
chosen
as
monitor,
your
classmates
will
give
you
support
and
make
your
class
a
better
one.
So
I
hope
you
will
feel
confident
and
make
the
right
decision.
Yours,
Li

部分解析
阅读理解：
第一节：

Doroudy说的now
are
on
our
way
home
...
we
got
here
in
time
for
the

listen
to
music
until
the
train
comes可知，她正在Margate
Station车站的候车厅等返程回家的火车。
22.
C。推理判断题。由Caroline
Lacey说的?I’ve
been
in
sharp
pain.
It’s
very
bright
and
airy
here,
so
it’s
quite
calming可知，牙科医院候诊室明亮且通风，这让牙痛难忍的Caroline感到很放松。
23.
D。推理判断题。Katie
Hawkins是在模特选角现场的等待区，由划线句前她对自己的鼓励come
on可知，参加模特选角的Katie看到等候区众多女孩，心里默默地对自己鼓励说她有机会，此处应是表现她的自信。
24.
A。细节理解题。由Paul
Thomas说的I
just
sit
back
and
people-watch,
really可知，等待的时候，他喜欢观察四周的人。
B?篇?(历史)
??本文是记叙文。文章描述了三位科学家冒着牺牲健康甚至是生命的危险在寻找真理的科学之路上所遭受的苦难。
25.
C。词义猜测题。由第二段介绍牛顿把针插到眼睛里做实验的结果Luckily,
nothing
long-lasting
did和他盯着太阳看的实验结果Again
he
escaped
...
damage可知，两次危险的实验都没有让牛顿遭受持久性的伤害。
26.
A。细节理解题。由第三段的his
one
failing
was
a
curious
habit
of
tasting
a
little
of
every
substance
he
worked
with可知，Karl
Scheele有一个弱点是他喜欢做实验时品尝化学品的味道。
27.
B。细节理解题。由最后一段的Some
of
his
ashes
were
sent
to
the
moon
aboard
the?Lunar
Prospector?spacecraft
and
left
there?—?he
is
the
only
person
who
has
had
this
honor可知，Shoemaker是唯一死后其部分骨灰被放到了月球上的人。
28.
D。主旨大意题。文章首段即本文主旨段，下文接着描述了三位科学家冒着牺牲健康甚至是生命的危险在寻找真理的科学之路上所遭受的苦难。
C篇?(热点话题)
本文是议论文。文章探讨塑料袋是否应该被完全禁止。
29.
C。段落大意题。本段介绍了塑料袋难以分解，对海洋生物造成致命危险，并且其化学成分会进入到动物体内，污染人类的水源和食物。故本段是对塑料袋危害性的介绍。
30.
C。推理判断题。由第三段的Germs
from
raw
meat
and
vegetables
can
live
a
lot
longer
on
cloth
or
paper
bags
than
they
do
on
plastic
bags可知，塑料袋比纸袋子更能抑制细菌的生长，故使用起来相对健康一些。
31.
A。推理判断题。由最后一段的...
getting
rid
of
plastic
bags
isn’t
necessary.
Instead,
they
want
to
reduce
the
number
of
bags
we
use.
New
York
City’s
bag
fee
is
one
way
to
do
that并结合第一段的New
York
City
plans
to
charge
a
five-cent
fee
for
every
bag可知，纽约市认为塑料袋的使用量应该减少，但没必要完全禁止使用塑料袋。
D篇?(语言学习)
本文是说明文。作者参与了一项关于英式英语和美式英语的研究，发现两种英语依然大同小异。
32.
B。推理判断题。由第一段的We
analysed
a
50-million-word
collection
...
course
books可知，作者所参与的这个研究项目基于可信的依据。
33.
D。细节理解题。由第二段的We
have
cookies
too
in
Britain,
but
they
are
a
certain
type
of
biscuit可知，当英国人说cookies时，实际指的是一种源自美国配方的特定饼干，如美式巧克力曲奇。
34.
D。推理判断题。由第三段作者列举英式和美式英语中一些单词的细微差别可知，pants在英国指的是一种内衣，而在美国则指长裤。故与英国人交谈时D项说法中的pants没有特指是那种类型的衣服，故应该是合理的。
35.
A。推理判断题。最后一段的Overall,
though,
our
research
shows
that
British
and
American
English
are
still
very
close
to
each
other即本段主旨句，该段落中提到的数字是为了说明英式英语和美式英语依然非常相似。
第二节：
话题：计划与愿望
本文是说明文。我们常常觉得时间不够用，本文介绍了两个具体步骤帮助我们收回控制权，让时间为我们所用。
36.
B。由上文作者猜测多数人常常说自己没时间可知，B项中的wasting
a
lot
of
it与此相呼应。虽然你是自己时间和生活的主宰，但你可能正在大量浪费时间。
37.
A。由下文提及的the
hours
that
add
up
to
a
lot
of
dissatisfying
nothing可知，A项中所指的blocks就是指代Be
honest部分列举的那些浪费你时间的事。作者认为收回时间控制权的第一步是要找出阻挠你的事。
38.
D。D项的Replace
them
with
things
that
satisfy
you是针对上文作者所说的how
you
can
cancel
daily
activities
that
are
not
useful的解决办法。作者建议换个角度想想你如何能去掉那些无用的日常活动，用能带给你满足感的事情取而代之。
39.
F。由小标题Change
your
language可知，作者认为说“我没有时间”只是不想做某事的借口，他建议用其它能增添自信的说辞来替代，今后你就有可能会做此事。F项说辞与文中所举的其它两种选择都能令你增添自信。
40.
E。由本段该空缺处前后的Get
better
at
saying
no和Use
little
pockets
of
time可知，作者建议你忽略掉手机上那些不重要的信息，利用零散时间想一想有益的事。
英语知识运用：
第一节：
话题：人际关系
本文是记叙文。作者描述了他在一场大雨中得到好心人的帮助的经历。
41.
C。由下文的I
drove
...
back
to
my
home可知，“我”是“开车（drive）”去市里买东西。
42.
D。43.
B。由下文“我”因大雨无法继续前行回家可知，“我离开超市时没有下雨”和“开了一段之后天气突然变得’糟糕（worse）’”之间是转折关系，故用However。
44.
C。45.
B。因雨下得“太大（heavily）”，“我”被迫改“道（road）”驱车回家。
46.
A。由下文的I
had
nowhere
to
go和the
rushing
water可知，由于雨势太大，“我”前面的路面积水“升高（rose）”。
47.
D。路面积水升高使得道路“危险（dangerous）”，因此一位司机示意告诉“我”不要试图穿越。
48.
D。由下文那位叫Trent的男子向“我”招手示意去他家躲避来势汹汹的雨水可知，这位三十岁左右的男子在他家前院“检查（examining）”路面情况。
49.
B。由下文的wait
inside
his
house可知，Trent让“我”把车“停到（park）”他家。
50.
C。Trent是“我”回家路上遇到的一位好心的陌生人，他“邀请（invited）”“我”去他家避雨。
51.
C。由下文的saved
Dad’s
car
from
being
destroyed
by
the
hail可知，“我”担心父亲的车因冰雹而“受损（damage）”。
52.
A。“我担心父亲的车受损”和“一直下的雨开始变成冰雹”之间是因果关系，故用as。
53.
D。Trent从车库拿出一个外罩是为了“遮住（covered）”“我”的车以免被冰雹砸坏。
54.
D。由his
efforts
saved
Dad’s
car可知，“庆幸的是（Fortunately）”，Trent的举措挽救了父亲的车，使其免被冰雹砸坏。
55.
C。“我”到Trent?家是为了等“天气（weather）”好转。
56.
B。由下文的as
a
local
handyman
to
make
ends
meet可知，通过做零活勉强糊口的Trent?“失去（lost）”工作已经十个月了。
57.
C。58.
B。由it
would
be
safe
enough和As
I
left可知，12:30的时候雨“停了（stopped）”，于是“我”问Trent是否足够安全可以“离开（leave）”。
59.
A。“我”与Trent认识之前他就在做零工，因此“我”离开时坚持要“拿走（taking）”两张他的名片。
60.
B。由at
our
place
doing
various
small
jobs可知，父亲之后常打电话给Trent提供做零活的“工作（work）”。
第二节：
61.
the。考查定冠词。“one
of
the
+形容词的最高级+复数名词”表示“最……之一”。
62.
to。考查介词。contribute?在此意为“贡献”，?后常接介词to。
63.
interested。考查过去分词作表语的用法。be
interested
in
...?意为“对……感兴趣”。??
64.
his。考查代词。on
one’s
own意为“独自”。
65.
publishing。考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处作介词by的宾语，又因Einstein与publish之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填publishing。
66.
completely。考查副词。设空处修饰形容词new，故填副词completely（完全）。
67.
received。考查一般过去时。由时间状语in
1921可知，设空处表示的动作发生在过去，故填received。
68.
which。考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，指代the
special
theory
of
relativity，且在从句中作主语，故填which。
69.
to
build。考查不定式作补语的用法。advise
sb.
to
do
sth.?意为“建议某人做某事”。
70.
be
needed。考查被动语态。weapons与need之间是被动关系，且设空处前有情态动词might，故填be
needed。
