36.【解析】D。此处应填形容词,修饰名词parts。文章首句即提出观点Britainisnotjustonecountryandonepeople“英国不只是一个国家和一个民族”,又从后文的dividedint0,eachpart以及individualcorn.时可知英国被分成几个分离的部分,选项中只有separate表达了这个意思,故D正确。
37.【解析】K。此处应填名词。选项中有四个词tempertemperament,traditions和growth,能和language和character并列且能被cultural修饰只有traditions,其他几个名词不符合文意。
38.【解析】0。此处应填动词原形。前文中说明英国被分成独立的几部分,各自保留自己的文化传统;后文中“because…”说明苏格兰、北爱尔兰以及威尔士的居民不承认自己是“English”,说明他们并不承认自己属于“England”,故这里应该选择belon9。apply也可以和t0连用,但applyt0表示“将……应用于”,不符合上下文意思。
39.【解析】J。此处应填形容词或副词修饰English。选项中的副词有generally和strictly,文中要表达的意思是因为这几个部分都有自己的语言和文化传统,所以严格来说,他们不是“English”,但他们都属于English。故strictly符合文意。generally“一般地,大体地”放在原文意义上不够严谨。三个形容词不能使语义通顺。
40.I解析lA。此处应填形容词。从前文中“prefertospeaktheirownnativetongue”,即苏格兰语、爱尔兰语和威尔士语,而这些语言对theothers来说是陌生的,听不懂的。那么就不难从选项中的income.sensible和understandable中选择前者,故incomprehensible“不能理解的”正确。
41.【解析】I。由managet0结构可知此处要填的是动词原形。选项中的动词原形还有forget,preserve,re.serve和apply。从下文中“traditionallifehasnotbeenSOaffected”可知他们成功地保留了自己的传统,排除forget和apply;reserve和preserve都有“保留”的意思,前者指存留起来以派别的用场,后者指想办法保持原样,强调抵制破坏因素,故preserve符合文意。
42.【解析】C。此处应填形容词修饰areas。从后文“wheretraditionallifehasnotbeenSOaffectedbythe…ofindustrialism…人们的传统生活受工业化……的影响没有那么大的地方”可以推知,这些地方是比较偏远的地方,选项中的remote。偏僻的,遥远的”符合上下文意思。
