  1. 1第 1 题

    • A. relevant
    • B. prone
    • C. available
    • D. alien

    答案B

    解析原文“This area of the Aegean Sea is __ to earthquakes and tsunamis”表明该海域易发灾害。be prone to 为固定搭配,意为“易于遭受”,与后文城市因地震海啸下沉一致。relevant 表相关,available 表可获得,alien 表格格不入,均不能与自然灾害构成“易发”语义,故选 prone。

  2. 2第 2 题

    • A. accidentally
    • B. frequently
    • C. gradually
    • D. temporarily

    答案C

    解析后文写“The slow sea level rise…more than 3,000 years ago”,强调缓慢过程。gradually 表逐渐,与“slow”及长期海平面上升吻合。accidentally 为偶然,frequently 为频繁,temporarily 为暂时,均与缓慢沉没的持续过程不符,故选 gradually。

  3. 3第 3 题

    • A. disguised
    • B. submerged
    • C. relocated
    • D. isolated

    答案B

    解析“the city more than 3,000 years ago”与前文沉没、后文“below some 13 feet of water”呼应。submerged 意为淹没、没入水中,贴合古城被海水覆盖。disguised 为伪装,relocated 为迁移,isolated 为隔离,都不能说明城市被水吞没,故选 submerged。

  4. 4第 4 题

    • A. legends
    • B. programs
    • C. remains
    • D. surroundings

    答案C

    解析“the city’s __ lay unseen below…water”指水下看不见的遗存。remains 指遗址遗迹,与后文建筑物、街道、墓葬一致。legends 为传说,programs 为计划,surroundings 为环境,均无法“躺在水下未见”,故选 remains。

  5. 5第 5 题

    • A. across
    • B. off
    • C. under
    • D. via

    答案B

    解析“covered by a thick layer of sand __ the island of Laconia”表示沙层覆盖于拉科尼亚岛近海。off 可表“在……近海/离岸”,符合水下遗址位置。across 为横跨,under 为在下,via 为经由,方位与搭配均不贴切,故选 off。

  6. 6第 6 题

    • A. currents
    • B. rivers
    • C. seasons
    • D. winds

    答案A

    解析“shifting __ and climate change have eroded a natural barrier”中,能侵蚀屏障的动态因素应是洋流。currents 指海流,与水下沙层、侵蚀相符。rivers、seasons、winds 虽可变化,但与水下遗址屏障被侵蚀的直接关系较弱,故选 currents。

  7. 7第 7 题

    • A. elevated
    • B. separated
    • C. comprised
    • D. protected

    答案D

    解析自然屏障被侵蚀后遗址暴露,说明该屏障原先“保护”遗址。protected 表保护,语义连贯。elevated 为抬高,separated 为分隔,comprised 为包含,都不能说明屏障对 Pavlopetri 的防护作用,故选 protected。

  8. 8第 8 题

    • A. gathering
    • B. restoring
    • C. updating
    • D. supplying

    答案A

    解析“a scientific survey…was __ data to analyze changes in sea levels”中,考察是为收集数据。gathering 表收集,与调查目的吻合。restoring 为恢复,updating 为更新,supplying 为供应,均不如“收集数据”贴切,故选 gathering。

  9. 9第 9 题

    • A. when
    • B. until
    • C. after
    • D. once

    答案A

    解析主句调查进行时,从句写 Flemming 首次发现沉没遗迹,时间重合用 when。until 表直到,after 表之后,once 表一旦,都不能准确连接“调查过程中发现”这一同时关系,故选 when。

  10. 10第 10 题

    • A. belongings
    • B. resources
    • C. products
    • D. structures

    答案D

    解析Flemming spotted the sunken __,后文出现 buildings、streets、tombs,故为水下建筑遗存。structures 指建筑物/结构。belongings 为财物,resources 为资源,products 为产品,均非考古调查所见城址主体,故选 structures。

  11. 11第 11 题

    • A. preserve
    • B. select
    • C. display
    • D. examine

    答案D

    解析“returned…to __ the location and map the site”表明重返是为勘查并绘图。examine 表查看、考察。preserve 为保存,select 为挑选,display 为展示,与首次测绘目的不符,故选 examine。

  12. 12第 12 题

    • A. Despite
    • B. Unlike
    • C. Besides
    • D. Among

    答案A

    解析“__ the exciting initial finds, the site would lie __ for decades”形成让步:虽有激动发现,遗址仍长期搁置。Despite 表尽管。Unlike 为不像,Besides 为此外,Among 为在……之中,均无法构成让步,故选 Despite。

  13. 13第 13 题

    • A. unchallenged
    • B. unknown
    • C. unorganized
    • D. undisturbed

    答案D

    解析发现后几十年无人再来,遗址处于未被扰动状态。undisturbed 表未被打扰。unchallenged 为未受挑战,unknown 为未知(已发现则不贴),unorganized 为无组织,故选 undisturbed。

  14. 14第 14 题

    • A. suspended
    • B. transferred
    • C. resumed
    • D. canceled

    答案C

    解析1968 年测绘后长期搁置,2009 年考古学家再次发掘,resumed 表恢复、重新开始。suspended 为中止,transferred 为转移,canceled 为取消,与“再度发掘”相反或无关,故选 resumed。

  15. 15第 15 题

    • A. policies
    • B. theories
    • C. documents
    • D. techniques

    答案D

    解析“underwater archaeology __ and tools had made huge advances”与后文 robotics、sonar 并列,应是技术手段。techniques 表技术。policies、theories、documents 都不能与 tools 并列并解释巨大进步,故选 techniques。

  16. 16第 16 题

    • A. ordered
    • B. provided
    • C. employed
    • D. adjusted

    答案C

    解析“The team __ robotics, sonar mapping…”表示团队使用这些手段。employed 表采用、使用。ordered 为命令,provided 为提供,adjusted 为调整,均不如“运用技术设备”准确,故选 employed。

  17. 17第 17 题

    • A. effect
    • B. light
    • C. reality
    • D. mind

    答案B

    解析“bring the underwater town to __”为习语 bring…to light,意为揭示、使重见天日。effect、reality、mind 均不能构成此固定表达,故选 light。

  18. 18第 18 题

    • A. crossed
    • B. connected
    • C. blocked
    • D. altered

    答案B

    解析“three main roads __ some 50 rectangular buildings”描写道路与建筑的关系。connected 表连接。crossed 为穿过(主语多为道路被建筑穿,逻辑别扭),blocked 为阻挡,altered 为改变,故选 connected。

  19. 19第 19 题

    • A. expecting
    • B. suggesting
    • C. predicting
    • D. recalling

    答案B

    解析大量米诺斯风格织机锤“__ Pavlopetri was a thriving trade center”,分词表推断。suggesting 表表明、暗示。expecting 为期待,predicting 为预测,recalling 为回忆,均不表示出土物所支持的结论,故选 suggesting。

  20. 20第 20 题

    • A. robust
    • B. diverse
    • C. marginal
    • D. dependent

    答案A

    解析与 thriving trade center 并列,纺织业应发达兴旺。robust 表强健、兴盛。diverse 为多样,marginal 为边缘,dependent 为依赖,都不能强调纺织业之盛,故选 robust。
