13、rch into是含义是“行军、走过”。【解析】考查名词，学生对未知世界开启的是一次航程，而非“运动”、“改变”亦或者“匆忙冲进”，于是选择A。46.【答案】B【解析】考查名词，解题关键是invisible，并且给出了中文注释。中文注释是必须关注的，给出中文注释的词未必是大家不认识的，但必须是解题的关键，本题就是完全的体现，对于什么而言是无形的，形状自然是眼睛看到的，于是选择B本题难。47.【答案】D【解析】考查名词，因为我们说过三段开始由“二十年后”引出，说明前后段逻辑紧密，而前一段说明的事情是我们不能相信自己的感觉做科学，于是本题中能够发现那个肉眼无法识别的无形未知世界的绝不是“感觉”或者
14、“精神”，排除B、C；而model的含义是“模型”，显然的无关选项，排除；最终选择D，科学的方法。48.【答案】A【解析】考查动词，even是一个强烈的递进关系词，那么根据语义，相比不能接受这些邀请更加强烈的情况是不去听这些邀请。55.【答案】A【解析】考查动词，被教授伤害后，我对这个科目能做的动作显然不是“开始学习”或者“通过”，于是排除B、C；而missed的含义是“失去”，无关选项；选择A，“放弃”。第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AWhen

16、this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note-“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”-and place it in the box along with the
