      Archaeologists have long thought that stone shipsserved as graves for one or several individuals, andhave even been viewed as death ships _1_ to takethe dead to living eternally. However, a new studyconducted by researchers from the University ofGothenburg shows a different picture. It suggestsBronze Age stone monuments in the form of ships were built by sailors as a symbol of theirpractices at sea.

      The study indicates that the stone ships and the activities that took place there point to peoplewho were _2_ focused on practices at sea.Details found within the stone structures show theywere built to _3_ real ships. The stone ships offer up _4_ about the ship-building techniques ofthe time and about the ships that sailed on the Baltic Sea during the Bronze Age.

      “These consist of areas that resemble hill forts and are located near easily _5_ points in thelandscape—that is, near well-known waterways leading inland,” Wehlin, head of the team,said. “While these areas have previously been thought to be much younger, recent age _6_have dated them to the Bronze Age.”

      Archaeologists have believed that bronze was _7_ to Scandinavia from the south, and recentanalyses have helped confirm this _8_. However, the people who distributed the bronze objectsare _9_ addressed in these thoughts.

      “One reason why the meeting places of the Bronze Age are not discussed very often is that wehaven’t been able to find them,” Wehlin said. “This is in _10_ contrast to the trading places ofthe Viking Age, which have been easy to locate as they left behind such rich archaeologicalmaterial.”

      A) majorly B) represent C) evacuate D) rarely

      E) determinations F) clues G) anticipated H) inquiries

      I) intended J) approximately K) accessible L) notion

      M) inevitable N) immense O) imported

      参考答案:

      1.[l]空格与to take the dead... eternally—起作deathship的后置定语,说明其作用是“让逝者得到永生”。intended符合句意,与served as在语义上呼应,指出石船一度被视为死亡之船,旨在让逝者得到永生。

      2.[A] were focused on...为动词词组,故空格应为修饰动词的副词。上一段末尾提及石船遗迹是人们在海上活动的象征,据此可以推断此处描述的人“主要”在海上生活或工作,词库中majorly符合上下文语境。

      3.[B]空格在不定式标记to之后,应为动词原形。上一段末句提到石船遗迹形状像船,是水手在海上活动的象征,据此可推断石船“象征”现实中的船,故选represent。

      4.[F]空格在动词词组offer up之后,应为名词,作offer up的宾语。此处说明“石船”和“那个时代的造船技术”之间的关系,clues符合句意,表明石船提供了那个时代的造船技术的相关线索。

      5.[K]空格在副词和名词之间,应为修饰名词的形容词或分词。本句破折号后的内容是对名词points的补充说明,根据well-known waterways leading inland可推断这些地方容易接近,词库中accessible与破折号后的内容相呼应,故为本题答案。

      6.[E]空格所在句子由两个分句组成,前一个分句指出人们原先认为那些地区存在的年代并不久远(muchyounger),而后一分句指出可以追溯到青铜器时代。空格前的age不能和动词date搭配,可见age不是主语,空格处应填入名词,故选用determinations —词,age determinations表示“年代测定”。

      7.[O] to…和from…表示方向的移动,可见空格应为动词的过去分词,与was —起构成句子的谓语。动词库中imported符合以上要求,该句意为“考古学家一直认为青铜是从南方输入到斯堪的纳维亚地区的”

      8.[L] this提水此处说填入名词单数形式,上一句提到考古举家的某一看法,再结合句中的confirm“证实”,推断填入的名词含有“观点,看法”之类的意思,notion符合语义。

      9.[D]空格所在句的转折词however提示上下文语义存在转折,即这些观点更多提及青铜器的传播地域,却很少提及流传青铜物件的人们,rarely符合上下义语义。

      10.[N]空格在介词和名词之间,可见成为修饰名词的定语。北欧海盗时代(the Viking Age)有丰富的考古资料,而青器时代很多东西都没法找到,这两个年代区别很大,故选用immense一词,in immense contrast意为“有巨大的差别”。
