Answer 1

【主旨大意】本篇短文為我們描繪了３０年后世界所發(fā)生的變化。

36Ｃ　三十年后生活會(huì)與現(xiàn)在不同．Same 相同；difficulty困難；be后跟形容詞，故答案應(yīng)選Ｃ。

37Ｄ根據(jù)前一句，人口增長(zhǎng)很快，那么世界上就會(huì)越來(lái)越多。More and more是固定短語(yǔ)，故答案應(yīng)選Ｄ。

38A在四個(gè)選擇項(xiàng)中，只有much能修飾形容詞比較級(jí)，故答案應(yīng)選Ａ。

39B因?yàn)殡娔X的重要，所以電腦的學(xué)習(xí)必將成為學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)的重要科目。故排除Ｃ，Ｄ；又因one of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞，故答案應(yīng)選Ｂ。

40D much 修飾形容詞比較級(jí)，故答案應(yīng)選Ｄ。

41A go for holiday 去度假是固定短語(yǔ)，故答案選Ａ。

42Ｂbe used for doing 被用作干某事也是個(gè)固定用法。更多的土地被用來(lái)建新城鎮(zhèn)和房子，故答案應(yīng)選Ｂ。

43Ｂ根據(jù)上文，土地少了，牛羊就少了生存的空間。所以Ｃ，D可以排除；又因room做空間講時(shí)，是不可數(shù)名詞，故答案應(yīng)選Ｂ。

44Ｃ根據(jù)句意，艱苦的工作將會(huì)被機(jī)器人代替。故本句應(yīng)用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，又因?qū)��?lái)時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)構(gòu)成為will be+過(guò)去分詞，故答案應(yīng)選Ｃ。

45Ｄwork做“工作”講為不可數(shù)名詞，故排除A，Ｂ；enough修飾名詞，應(yīng)放在名詞的前面，故答案應(yīng)選D。
