9、ted15.A.obtained B. called C. deserved D. earned参考答案及详解1. B) 根据语义线索“我们人类的老祖宗猿人，既 没有像大型猫科动物那样的利齿，也没有那 样强有力的爪子；他们也不能和熊相比，它们的力量、速度和爪子给他们提供了一套小型武 器”可知正确的答案应为B compare。因为compare with意为“（可）与相比” ，例如：My English cannot compare with his.我的英语水平不如他。其他三个选项中mat ch意为“相配，相称”，一般不与with搭配；rival with意为“与竞争，对抗”明显不 符合题意；
10、equal意为“比得上，抵得上，等于”，意义相符，但是equal不和with搭配使用 。2. D) 根据句义可知此处正确答案为D provided“提供”。其他三项中bec ame“变成”，不 合逻辑；equipped意为“装配，配置”，一般用于equip sb. with sth.，与题义不符；posed 意为“摆姿势，造型”，意义不符。3. C) 根据此空所在句句义（他们甚至不能像马匹、斑马或一些小动物那 样通过快速奔跑来保护他们自己）和词汇线索可知应使用介词by。4. B) 根据语义线索可知，由于猿人没有上述能力，因此如果他们在开阔 的大草原上和其他 动物竞争的话可以想象他们注定会失败，
11、导致最终的灭亡，因此正确答案为doomed，因为be doomed to do意为“注定会”，例如：The old sick man is doomed to die.这位 有病的老人注定要死。5. D) 根据此空所在句句义（但是他们却被赋予了任何其他的竞争者们所 不具有的隐形的优 势）和词汇线索可知此空的答案为endowed。Be endowed with意为“赋予，赠与”，例如： He is endowed with genius.他极有天赋。其他三项：bestow意为“给予，授，赠，赐”， 一般与on或upon搭配；give不符；present意为“赠送，给予”，不和with搭配。6.
12、A) 根据词汇线索可知此空应使用介词for，构成固定搭配in the(BF ones) search for， 意为“为了寻找，追求”，注意如果search前没有冠词就要使用介词of，例如：In the sea rch for the relevant materials, he came to the National Library.为了寻找相关的资 料，他来到了国立图书馆。In search of truth, he give up this profitable job.为了 寻求真理，他放弃了这份优越的工作。7. C) 根据句义（为了寻找森林中的采集物，猿人已经进化成具有立体的 视觉
13、和颜色感）和四个 选项的词汇意义可以判断developed“发展，进化”为正确答案。Progress是不及物动词， 意为“前进，进步，发展”；generate意为“生殖，繁育，产生，形成”；advance意为“ 使前进，发展”。三项都不符。8. C) 根据语义线索和词汇线索应使用介词beyond，构成固定搭配短语bey ond the reach of 意为“达不到的，力所不及的”。其他介词都不符合题意。9. B) 根据词汇线索此空应使用副词quite，其他三项都不符。 10. D) 根据语法线索此空需要一个用what或all that来引导they h ad had to do作整个句 子的
14、主语，四个选项中只有all可以，构成all they had had to do，其中all后that省略了 。11. A) 根据上句句义，对于栖息于森林中的猴子和猿猴来说，它们可以爬 到树上，以获得好 的视野。而在平原开阔地带，这个简单的办法就不好使了，因为那里没有树木，因此此空选 择available“有效的，可利用的”。12. B) 根据句义，猿人采纳了唯一可行的解决办法，四个选项中adopt为 最佳答案。13. A) 根据语义线索和语法线索此空需要一个表示让步意义的联系副词， 故四个选项中However为正确答案。14. C) 根据上下文可知，随着猿人不断地坚持直立行走，他们的骨架渐渐
15、 地改变，适应了 新的、不稳定的姿势。由此可知此题的正确答案为C adapted。be accustomed to意为“适 应某种环境或事情”不符合题意。familiarized意为“家喻户晓的，已为人所熟知的”，它 的动词原形是“familiarize”，意为“使熟悉，使通晓，使家喻户晓”。suited则指“适 宜的，适当的”。15. D) 根据上下文可猜测句义为：猿人适应了新的姿势，这使他赢得了直 立人的名称。由此可知earn“赢得，博得”为正确答案。突击专四完形填空（10）（附答案详解）It must have been after two oclock in the morning when the last guest _ 1_ their leave, and although we had enjoyed their _ 2_, my wife and I were quite thankful to shut the door _ 3_ them.
