13、这里应该用动词， differ from .“和不同”。4C 考查重叠介词的用法。研究者们研究的天气变化数据来自世界各地，所以用 from around the world。5D 前面用的是 daytime highs, 后面要用 nighttime lows 来进行呼应，所以选 D 项。6B 习惯用法， “被叫做”要用 be called, 因为前面的主语是单数，所以用 is called。7A 在这里说的是气象站，所以用 station。而 radio(收音机 ); room(房间); factors(因素)均不符合题意。8D 考查冠词的用法。这里的 the average DTR for
14、 Saturday, Sunday, and Monday 是特指，与后面的 the average DTR for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday 形成对比。9C 研究人员发现这个现象是过去的事情，所以用一般过去时。10B 考查分数的表达法，分母要用序数词，由于分子是 several 大于 1，所以分母序数词要用复数加 s，因此选 B 项。11B 这里要选择一个形容词修饰 U.S.，表示“西南方的 ”，故 B 项为正确答案。而southwest 是名词，意为“西南方”； southwestward 是形容词，意为“向西南方的” ； southwestwards
15、 是副词，意为 “向西南”。12C weekdays 和前面的 weekend 形成对比，是两者之间的比较，故要用比较级，所以选 C 项。13A weekly 每周一次的。14D 和前面的情形形成对比，很明显要用 instead 来表示不干某事，而去做另外的事情。15C blame sb. for sth.“因某事而责怪某人”。16D the amount of“的量”。17D 这里是一个非限制性定语从句，要用 which 来指代前面整个句子的内容。18A close to .“离很近 ”，而 closely 是副词，意为“接近地” ，不符合句意。19C 和前面的 first 形成呼应，用 t
16、hen 表示先后顺序。20B 表示“ 刮风”，要用动词 blow。.阅读理解To become a doctor in the United States, students usually attend four years of medical school after they complete college.
