47.A keeppacewith表示“与…同步”。
48.C inproportionto表示“与…成比例,与…相称”。
49.A include(包括)指属于其中的一部分。contain(包含)多指全部的内容物。如:alistcon tainingtenitems(包括10个项目的一栏表)。hold表示“持有”。have表示“有”。
50.B over-populated表示“使人口过剩的”。如选C就不符合逻辑。本句想告诉我们人口的分布不均。有的人口分布平均,有的人口稀少(under-populated),有的人口过剩。
51‘C bethreatenedwith表示“遭受到…的威胁”。本句的意思是:以目前的出生率的趋势,世界人口会出现天文数字的危险。
52.B quotefrom表示:“引自,引用”。
53.D 让作形式主语,代表that从句。
54.A suchthat表示:“(是)这样以致于…”。
