答案与题解:
1 B look at表示“观察、研究”。
2 B根据上下文可必推断,此处应选表示“经常”意思的often 一词。
3 A这句话的意思是:“他们经常不说而我们也不问”。所以应用and一词连接两个并列成分。
4 C本段中的第一句已经出现过do experience的用法,表示“的确经历过”。
5 D前面出现的是men 一词,与其对应的应是them。
6 C前面出现了physical abuse,与其并列自然应是non-physical abuse。
7 B既然是威胁,肯定会令他们为自身安全担忧,而fear for their safety正表示这样的意思。
8 A从第一句中的violence at the hands of an intimate parmer就可以推断,此处应选violence一词。
9 D因为前面提到了18~ 54岁的男人,因此此处应是55岁及5S岁以上的男人。
10 C前面已经多次出现过domestic violence的搭配。
11. B前面已经多次出现过experience violence这一搭配,而上下文也表明此处表示的意思是
男人“遭受的”家庭暴力。
12 C用that指代妇女遭受的physical violence。
13 A因为是在与男人做比较,所以应选women。
14. B本句中前面出现了表示比较的more -词,此处自然应选than -词。
15. C结果只能是“研究者”发现的。
