12、文語境，蓋洛普咨詢公司所做的應(yīng)該是一個“既定事實”所以排除ACD。因此，B選項為最佳選項。7.[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][A]Sure[考點分析]上下文語義及固定搭配[選項分析][A]確信的[B]奇怪的[C]不幸運的[D]經(jīng)常的本題為固定搭配“sureenough”譯為“足以肯定的是，”8[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][D]headquartered[考點分析]上下文語義及形容詞詞義辨析[選項分析][A]廣告的[B]劃分的[C]課稅過重的[D]位于總部的根據(jù)原文“fi

13、rms’investmentR&Dintensitywerecrelatedwiththehappinessoftheareainwhichtheywere8.”譯為“足以肯定的是，公司投資與研發(fā)力度與公司______的幸福指數(shù)相關(guān)。”inwhich引導(dǎo)表示地點的定語從句，先行詞為area.對比四個選項，ABC不足以說明此地點的真實含義。因此，D選項，搭配前文area構(gòu)成“總部所在地”最為合理。9[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][A]explain[考點分

14、析]上下文語義及動詞詞義辨析[選項分析][A]解釋[B]夸大[C]概述[D]重點強調(diào)根據(jù)原文“…ouldsomethingelseabouthappiercities9whyfirmstherespendmeonR&D”A選項“explain”常和后文“why”搭配使用。10[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][B]facts[考點分析]上下文語義及名詞詞義辨析[選項分析][A]階段[B]因素[C]等級[D]方法根據(jù)原文語境“Tofindouttheresea

15、rcherscontrolledfvarious10thatmightmakefirmsmelikelytoinvest–likesizeindustrysales…”本題中，破折號后面“大小，產(chǎn)業(yè)，銷售”這些都是“讓公司有更多投資的”因素。因此，B選項最符合原文語境。11[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][A]desirable[考點分析]上下文語義和形容詞[選項分析]該空填的是形容詞，用來修飾前面的名詞place并且在意義上也是對后面likegrowth

16、inwagespopulation的解釋，可以看出來應(yīng)該是填褒義詞，并且能修飾place.所以只有[A]desirable合適的符合文章。[B]social社交的[C]reputable受尊敬的[D]reliable可依靠的。12.[標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案][B]held[考點分析]上下文語義及動詞詞義辨析[選項分析]該句算是這一段的總結(jié)句，該段整體在描述幸福與投資之間的關(guān)系，而這一link就只能得出了，只有[B]held”得出”符合語境。Aresu
