asyoung,IhadnoideawhatIwantedtodo.(当我年轻的时候，我不知道我想做什么)”可知，年轻的时候，作者对自己的未来没有计划。故选A项。6．细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Itsoundedfun,s

oItookthetesttobeamailcarrier.(听起来很有趣，所以我参加了考试，想成为一名邮递员)”可知，作者想当邮递员是因为她认为这很有趣。故选B项。7．推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“I

。根据第一段的“Animportantlessoninthemoral(道德的)educationofchildrencouldbeascloseasthebookintheirhands.Storiesmatter.Andtheycanplayaroleinbuildingmoralv

aluesinyoungaudiences,accordingtotheresultsofanewstudy.(对孩子进行道德教育的重要一课就像他们手中的书一样近在咫尺。故事很重要。根据一项新的研究结果，它们可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用

。)”可知，这项新研究的结果是故事帮助孩子们发展自己的道德观。故选D。10．细节理解题。根据第二段的“LindsayHahnisthefirstauthorofthenewstudy,whichexploreshowmediacontentinf

luenceschildren.Manystudiesdonebeforehavefocusedonwideconcept,butHahn’sstudylooksathowmoralvaluesmightinflu

encethekids’values.(LindsayHahn是这项新研究的第一作者，该研究探索了媒体内容如何影响儿童。以前做过的许多研究都专注于广泛的概念，但Hahn的研究着眼于道德价值观如何影响孩子的价值观。)”可知，Hahn的研究

重点是媒体内容如何影响儿童的道德价值观。故选C。11．词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Whenparentsareconsideringwhatmediatheymightwanttoselectfortheirchildren(当父母考虑为孩子选择什么样的媒体时)”和

“whatparticularmoralvalueisbeingstressedbythemaincharacter,andhowthemaincharacteristreatedbecauseofthoseactions(主角强调了什么特殊的道德价值，主角因为这些行为而受到了怎样的对待

)”可知，划线词所在句子的意思是“当父母考虑为孩子选择什么样的媒体时，他们可以考虑主角强调了什么特定的道德价值，以及主角因这些行为而受到怎样的对待”，因此划线词deliberate的意思是“考虑”，和consid

er意思相近，故选D。12．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Animportantlessoninthemoral(道德的)educationofchildrencouldbeascloseasthebookin

theirhands.Storiesmatter.Andtheycanplayaroleinbuildingmoralvaluesinyoungaudiences,accordingtotheresultsofanewstudy.(对孩子进行道德教育的重要一课就像他们手中的书一样近在咫尺。故

事很重要。根据一项新的研究结果，它们可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用。)”可知，本文主要讲的是根据一项新的研究结果，故事可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用，因此最好的标题是C选项“StoriesPlayanImpor

tantRoleintheYoung’sMoralValues(故事在年轻人的道德价值观中扮演着重要的角色)”。故选C。Jason,astraight-AstudentfromtheUniversityofPennsylv

提高学习效率。13．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Thepseudo-workerlooksandfeelslikesomeonewhoisworkingbard-heorshespendsalongtimeinthelibrary

andisnotafraidtopushonlateintothenight-but,becauseofalackoffocusandconcentration,heorshedoesn’tactuallyachievemu

ch.(伪学习者看起来和感觉上都像吟游诗人——他或她花很长时间在图书馆里，而且不怕工作到深夜——但是，由于缺乏专注力，他或她实际上并没有取得多大成就。)”可知，伪学习指的是看上去好像花了很长时间学习，但并没有真正把注意力集中在学习上。

C项“杰克边听音乐边在图书馆写论文写了很长时间”与“伪学习”的定义相似。故选C项。14．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Thebiggerproblemhereisthatmoststudentsdon’tevenreali

zethatthey’repseudo-working.(更大的问题是，大多数学生甚至没有意识到他们是在伪学习。)”可知，相比全A的学生，大多数学生都不知道自己在伪学习。故选D项。15．词句猜测题。根据文章第五段“Somecognitiv

escienceresearchconcludesthatabout50minutesistheoptimallearningperiodtomaximizethematerialintegratedpertimeunit.(一些认知科学研究得出结论，大

约50分钟是optimal学习时间，以最大限度地利用每一时间单位的材料。)”中的maximize“最大化”可知，对于学习来说，提高效率非常重要，为了效率的最大化，50分钟的时间应该是“最适合的”或者“最佳的”。B项“最佳的”符合文意。故选B项。16．推理判断题。根据文章第五段“

Sohowdothesestudentsachievethisgoal?Tounderstandtheirwaytosuccess,considerthefollowingsimpleformula:workachieved=timespent*intensityoffo

cus.(那么这些学生是如何实现这一目标的呢？要了解他们的成功之道，可以考虑下面这个简单的公式：完成的工作量等于花费的时间乘以专注的强度。)”和最后一段“Pseudo-workingfeaturesaverylowintensityoffocus.Therefore,

toachievesomethingbypseudo-working.youneedtospendalotoftime.Thestraight-Aapproach.ontheotherhand,increasesintensityinordertouseles

stime.(伪学习的特点是聚焦强度很低。因此，通过伪学习来达到目的，你需要花很多时间。而全A学生的学习方法是增加聚焦强度以减少时间。)”可知，作者并不支持“伪学习”，作者更加支持通过减少时间增加专注度的方法，故

推测作者列出公式是为了强调“专注强度”的重要性。故选C项。EngineersandscientistsattheUniversityofTexasatAustinhavedevelopedauniquesolution

这种凝胶膜即使在干燥的气候下也能从空气中吸水。在干燥的气候中，仅一公斤的凝胶就能吸收6升的水。因为这种凝胶价格低且易于制作，它可以为缺水国家提供饮用水。）”可知，这种凝胶膜可以从空气中获取饮用水，故选B。18．推理判断题。根据文章

第四段““Thisnewworkisaboutpracticalsolutionsthatpeoplecanusetogetwaterinthehottest,driestplacesonEarth,”saidGuihuaYu,professorattheCockrellS

choolofEngineering.“Thiscouldallowmillionsofpeoplewithoutconsistentaccesstodrinkingwatertohavesimple,watergeneratingdevices(取水装置)athomethattheycaneas

一取水装置。’）”可知，认为，GuihuaYu这一新的取水装置能满足无法获取饮用水的人的需求，故他对这一取水设备是充满希望的，故选D。19．词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段““Thisisnotsomethingyouneedanadvanceddegreetouse,”thepaper’

sleadauthor,Youhong“Nancy”Guosaid.“It’sstraightforwardenoughthatanyonecanmakeitathomeiftheyhavethematerials.”（Youhong“Nancy”Guo

说道：‘这并不是需要你有高级学位才能使用的东西，它很简单，以至于如果有材料，任何人都能在家制作’。）”中straightforward一词的前后文的提示“Thisisnotsomethingyouneedanadvan

ceddegreetouse（这并不是需要你有高级学位才能使用的东西）”“anyonecanmakeitathomeiftheyhavethematerials.（如果有材料，任何人都能在家制作）”可知，这一设备是任何人都能制作出来的，故此处的“s

traightforward”与A项“easy简单的”意思相近，故选A。20．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Scientistsareplanningonmakingathickergelthatwil

lincreasetheproduction,makingthistechnologyapracticablesolutiontodrought.（科学家们正计划制作一个更厚的凝胶，以提高产量，使这项技术成为解决干旱的可行方案。）”可知，科学家们接下来会计划研发一个更厚的凝胶，故选A。Forl

ealthytookgreatcaretogetdifferentkindsofforksforeverything.（对于19世纪晚期的北美和欧洲来说，餐具的摆放能展示一个人的社会地位，因为有钱人非常小心地为所有的东西准备了不同种类的叉子。）”可知，在19世纪，叉

子有着不同的类型，故选B。22．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“InancientEgypt,Greece,andRome,forkswereusedforslicingfoodintopiecesorliftingmeatfromapotorfire.（在古埃及

、希腊和罗马，叉子被用来将食物切片，或者从锅里和火里将肉取出。）”可知，在古埃及，叉子是用来切割食物的，故选C。23．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Inthelate11thcentury,St.PeterDamianfrom

OstiawroteaboutaByzantineprincesswhousedforksandregardedherdyingofadiseaseaspunishmentforsuch“luxury”.（在11世纪末，奥斯蒂亚的St.

henweresearchit,happinessactuallyraiseseverysinglebusinessandeducationaloutcomeforthebrain.(但当我们对它进行研究时，幸福实际上会提高大脑的每一项业务和教育成果)”可知，幸福实际上会提高大脑的每一项业

务和教育成果。故可推知，下文中的this指代的是上一句中幸福和教育结果之间的关系，故选B。26．推理判断题。由第三段的“Scientifically,happinessisachoice.(科学地说，幸福是一种选择)”和“Ifyouscanfor

thenegativefirst,yourbrainreallyhasnoresourcesleftovertoseethethingsyouaregratefulfororthemeaningembedded(嵌入)inyourwork.But

ifyouscantheworldforthepositive,youstarttoacquireanamazingadvantage.(如果你先看消极的一面，你的大脑真的没有余力去看你感激的事情或你工作的意义。但如果你从积极的角度审视这个世界，你就会开始获得惊人的优势)”可知

，你如果心态消极，那么你就看不见你所感恩的东西，同样也看不到工作的意义。但是如果你积极的细看这个世界，你会开始获得令人意想不到的益处。通过这两种态度可以得出，幸福就是一个选择，你可以选择快乐你也可以选择悲伤，关键在于你自己，故选B。27．推

ebater。29．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Afterlisteningtoargumentsfromitsopponent(对手),thesystemcansearcharound400millio

nonlinearticlesinlessthanfiveminutes.Itlooksforideasthatcansupportitsownargument.”（听完对手的发言，该系统可以在五分钟内搜索4亿左右的在线文章。它寻找能

够支持自己论点的观点。）可知，ProjectDebater通过在短时间内收集大量的数据来与人类辩论，故选D。30．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Interestingly,58percentoftheaudiencesaidthatProjectDebaterincreasedth

eirknowledgeaboutthetopic”（有趣的是，58%的观众说ProjectDebater增加了他们对这个话题的知识）可知，观众觉得ProjectDebater使他们更了解这个话题，故选A。31．主旨大意题。根据第四段“Af

tercompetingwithvarioushumandebaters,theAIsystem'soverallperformanceremainsinferior(逊色的),“fullycapableofsoundingawkwardduringanar

gument,”notedScientificAmerican.(在与各种人类辩手竞争后，人工智能系统的整体表现仍然较差。《科学美国人》杂志称“在辩论中听起来很尴尬”)”以及第五段“Inotherwords,theback

化”)”可知，这两段主要介绍了ProjectDebater的不足之处。故选A。32．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Argumentanddebatearefundamental(基本的)capabilit

ies(能力)ofhumanintelligence,andit’sastepoutsideofAI’scomfortzonetoenterthisrealm(领域),accordingtothearticleinNature.”（《自然》杂志上的这篇文章称，争论和辩论是人类智力的基本能力，进入

这个领域是走出人工智能的舒适区一步。）可知，在辩论方面，人类比人工智能有优势。故选B。Whenitcomestofriends,Idesirethosewhowillsharemyhappiness,whopossesswingsoftheirowna

eExperiencesB．RemarkableImaginationC．LifelongFriendshipD．NobleCompanions【答案】33．A34．B35．D【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们讲述了自己在人生

的几个不同阶段所遇到的几个好朋友，从而告诉我们朋友对于我们人生的重要意义。33．词句猜测题。根据第三段“Wewalkeduntilourdespairsdisappearedandthenweparted”(我们一直走到绝望消失，然后分手)可知，作者和她的朋友当时在伦

敦，都很绝望，但他们互相勉励，一起寻找美好的事物，直到他们绝望的感觉都消失了，“我们把伦敦给了对方”，显然这里表示探索伦敦是一个我们都难忘的礼物。故选A。34．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Onebrighthourwiththeir

kindisworthmoretomethanthelifetimeservicesofapsychologist,whowillonlyfillupthehealing(愈合的)silencenecessaryto

thosedarkestmomentsinwhichIwouldratherbemyownbestfriend.”(对我来说，与他们一起度过一个光明的时刻比心理学家的终生服务更有价值，因为心理学家只会填补那些我宁愿做自己最好朋友的最黑暗时刻所需的治愈沉默。)可知，在这些时候作者

宁愿独自一人。故选B。35．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Whenitcomestofriends,Idesirethosewhowillsharemyhappiness,whopossesswingsoft

heirownandwhowillflywithme.Iseekmindswhosequalitiesilluminate(照亮)meandtrainmeupforlove.ItisforthesepeoplethatIreservetheglowinghours,toog

oodnottoshare.”(说到朋友，我渴望那些能分享我快乐的人，拥有自己的翅膀的人，和我一起飞翔的人。正是因为这些人，我保留了发光的时间，太好了，不能不分享。)可知，本文介绍作者人生道路上的几个朋友，这些朋友与她一起写诗作文，

和她一起探讨人生，尽管有些素未谋面。在心情压抑的时候，她宁可独自一人，她把充满激情的时光保留着，送给最好的朋友；她寻找能照亮她的生活的朋友。因此最佳题目为：品质高贵的朋友。故选D。IhavedreamtoftakingatriptoHawaiisinceIgraduatedbutthebe

日出的经历，从而得出感悟最好的东西值得等待。36．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Inthenextmorningwealljumpedoutofthebedveryearlyat3o’clockandwalkedtotherocksbyth

eseaside.Inthefirsthalfanhourweimagined.”（第二天早晨我们都在凌晨三点起床并且走到海边的岩石上。在最初的半小时里，我们想象着景象）可知此时已是三点半，再根据第三段中“Howeveranotherhalfanhourl

aterIgraduallylostmypatiencesincetherewasnothingbutthechillydarknessandIfeltthatIwasfrozentodeath.”（然而半个小时过去了我逐渐丧失了耐心因为除了寒冷的黑

暗什么都没有并且我觉得我快要被冻死了）可知此时已是四点，又根据第四段中“Nearlyanotheronehourlater,“Amazing!”awordburstoutfromJudyandweallshoutedtowelcomethelightorangegreatnesswhichi

sreallyunbelievable.”（又过了差不多一个小时，“太棒了！”朱迪脱口而出，我们都大声欢呼欢迎这个浅橙色的令人难以置信的伟大）可知一个小时后也就是五点，作者和他的朋友们终于迎来了日出。故选C项。37．词义

猜测题。根据第三段中“HoweveranotherhalfanhourlaterIgraduallylostmypatiencesincetherewasnothingbutthechillydarknessandIfeltt

hatIwasfrozentodeath.”（然而半个小时过去了我逐渐丧失了耐心因为除了chilly黑暗什么都没有并且我觉得我快要被冻死了）尤其“frozentodeath”可知，作者在黑夜中等待的过程是寒冷的。故选A项。38．推理判断题。根据第

二段中“IwaslostinthesightseeingthatafternoonsoIcouldhardlywaittomeetthesunrise.”（我沉迷于那天下午的美景所以我迫不及待想要去看日

出）可知作者起初对于看日出这件事感到兴奋，再根据第三段“HoweveranotherhalfanhourlaterIgraduallylostmypatiencesincetherewasnothingbutthechillydarknessandIfeltthatIwa

sfrozentodeath.”（然而半个小时过去了我逐渐丧失了耐心因为除了寒冷的黑暗什么都没有并且我觉得我快要被冻死了）可知等待日出时的寒冷使作者失去了耐心，由此可知作者的心理状态由最初的兴奋变得没有耐心。故选B项。39．推理判断题。根据第五段中“Itmightturnouttobepleasi

nglyunbelievableandsatisfied.So,itisreallyworthwhiletowaitforthebest.”（结果就是令人愉快的，难以置信的和满足的。对于美好的事物的等待都是值得的）可是作者想表达的观点就是：有时美好值得等待。故选D项。Teadr

节理解题。根据第一段“ItcouldnotbeboughtinshopsandeventhosepeoplewhocouldaffordtohaveitsentfromHollanddidsoonlybecauseitwasafashionablecurios

ity.(它在商店里买不到，甚至那些有能力从荷兰寄来的人也买不到，只是因为这是一种时尚的好奇心)”可知，英国人刚开始买茶是出于好奇。故选B。41．细节理解题。根据第二段“Tearemainedscarce(稀少的)andveryexpensiveinEngland

untiltheshipsoftheEastIndiaCompanybegantobringitdirectlyfromChinaearlyinthe17thcentury.Duringthenextfewyearssomuchteacameintot

hecountrythatthepricefellandmanypeoplecouldaffordtobuyit.(直到17世纪初东印度公司的船只开始从中国直接进口茶叶之前，英国的茶叶一直稀缺且价格昂贵。在接下来的几年里，大量的茶叶流入该国，导致茶叶价格下跌，许多人都买得起)”可知，在

17世纪，因为大量的茶叶流入英国，人们开始能够买得起茶叶，这样茶叶就开始流行了起来。故选A。42．词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子的前三句话“Teahadbeendrunkwithoutmilkinitatfirst,butonedayafamousFrenchladynamedMad

amedeSevignedecidedtoseewhatteatastedlikewhenmilkwasadded.Shefounditsopleasantthatshewouldneverdrinkitwithoutmilkagain.Shewassuchagreatladythatherf

一切）”可知，人们开始模仿德塞维尼夫人的习惯，在茶里加入牛奶。所以thishabit指“在茶里加牛奶”。故选C。43．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Atfirstteawasusuallydrunkafterdinnerintheevening.Nooneeverthough

位公爵夫人发现，三四点钟的一杯茶和一块蛋糕阻止了她所谓的“下沉感”。她邀请她的朋友和她一起吃这顿新的饭，于是，teatime诞生了)”可知，最后一段主要介绍了“下午茶时间”是如何开始的。故选B。AustraliawasalwaysacountryIwantedto

。44．推理判断题。根据第二段“Theflightwentquitequicklythough,sincetherewerelotsoffilmstowatchtokeepmeamused.(不过，飞机飞得很快，因为有很多电影可以看，让我觉得很有趣)”可知，作者认为在飞机

上的旅程是令人愉快的。故选D。45．推理判断题。根据第二段“ItwasstrangewhenIarrivedbecauseeverythingwasupsidedownoverthere;(当我到达时它很陌生，因为那里的一切都颠倒了)”可知，作者刚到悉尼时

感觉不熟悉。故选C。46．主旨大意题。根据第三段“Thecountryistrulybeautiful,fullofamazingviewsandwildlifeyouwouldn’tfindanywhereelseinthewo

rld.(这个国家真地很美，到处都是令人惊叹的景色和野生动物，你在世界上任何地方都找不到)”以及段落内容可知，本段主要介绍了澳大利亚的景色和特有的野生动物。故选A。47．词句猜测题。根据第四段“Thehighlightofmytripwassnorkelinginth

eGreatBarrierReef,asthewaterwasamazinglyclearwithabeautifulshadeofblue.Ialsogotthechancetoseesomespe

cialcreaturesunderwater,suchasseaturtlesandevenashark.(我旅行中最精彩的部分是在大堡礁snorkeling，那里的水非常清澈，带着美丽的蓝色阴影。我也有机会看到一些特殊的水下生物，如海龟，甚至鲨鱼)”可知，作者在大堡礁水下游泳

时感受到了水下的风景和水下生物，推测划线词表示“潜水”，与swimmingunderwater同义。故选B。Imaginethis:You’reatamovietheaterfoodstandloadinguponsnacks.Youhaveachoiceofasmall,

选项所吸引。48．推理判断题。根据文章首段中的“Picturethis:You’reatamovietheaterfoodstandloadinguponsnacks.Youhaveachoiceofasmall,mediumorlargesoda.Thesmallis$3.50andthe

largeis$5.50.(想象一下：你在电影院的食品摊上装满零食。你可以选择小杯，中杯或大杯苏打水。小的是3.50美元，大是5.50美元。)”；最后一句“Ifyou’relikemostpeople,youendupbuyingthelarge.

(如果你像大部分人的话，你最终会买大杯。)”以及下文对诱饵效应的介绍可知，通过具体的事例，将读者引入文章讲述的话题，所以首段的作用就是引起读者的兴趣。故选C项。49．推理判断题。根据第三段的“Arielyranane

选择时，更多的人选择更便宜的数字订阅。然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”可知，实验结果表明，这种促销的方式应该是见效的。故选D项。50．推理判断题。根据文章首段的具体实例讲述的是消费者在面对消费选择时的最终选择结果，以及DanAriely所做的实验内容和

最后一段中的“Marketingprofessorscallitthedecoyeffect,whichiscertainlyeasiertoremember.(营销学教授称之为诱饵效应，这当然更容易记住。)”可知，文章所

涉及的信息都与消费者的消费选择和市场营销策略有关系，由此可推断，文章很有可能出现在与消费者相关的网站。故选C项。51．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“However,thebadoptionincreas

edpeople’slikelihoodofselectingtheexpensiveprintplusdigitaloption.(然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”和最后一段中的“Valueisrarelyabsolute;rather,wedecideano

bject’svaluerelativetootherchoices.Ifmoreoptionsareintroduced,thevalueequation(方程)changes.(价值很少是绝对的；相反，我们决定一个对象相对于其他选择的值。如果引入更多选项，则值方程

会发生变化。)”可知，我们在购买一件商品时，总会经过对比，选择自己认为最好的选项。故选B项。Iamnotgoodatfinedining.Evenafteracoupleofformalmealsincollege,Istilldidn’tknowhowtobalanceapileofpeas

【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章通过作者祖父和祖母的故事来讲述筷子的含义。52．推理判断题。根据第一段的“Evenafteracoupleofformalmealsincollege,Istilldidn’tknowhowtobalanceapileofpeasonthebacko

fmyfork,whichisobviouslytheEuropeanstyle.(即使在大学里正式吃过几顿饭，我仍然不知道如何平衡叉子后面的一堆豌豆，这显然是欧洲人的风格)”和第二段的“Honestly,IthinkIam

muchmoreusedtothesimplelanguageofchopsticks.(老实说，我觉得我更习惯简单的筷子语言)”推知，作者认为比起刀叉来，筷子更容易使用。故选D。53．词句猜测题。根据最后一段的“Usingch

opstickstakespractice,patience(使用筷子需要练习、耐心)”和下文“Aftermorethanfiftyyearsofmarriage,mygrandparentsarestillstudyingitandpracticingit,withevery

mealandeverymouthful.(结婚五十多年了，爷爷奶奶还在研究、练习，每一顿饭，每一口饭)”可知，作者的爷爷奶奶研究、练习使用筷子50多年了。由此可知，使用筷子需要练习、耐心和毅力。因此划线词tenacity意为“毅力”，与perseverance同义。故选

C。54．推理判断题。通读全文可知，第一二段引出话题——筷子承载着很多，第三段讲述祖父教作者使用筷子，第四段讲述祖母用筷子表达对家人关心，最后一段对全文进行总结。因此文章的结构是：一二段引出话题——三段分述

——四段分述——五段总结。故选B。55．主旨大意题。根据第二段的“Tome,thehumble(微不足道的)artofchopstickscarriesmorethananysilverknivesorforksevercould.(对我来说，筷子这一朴素的艺术比任何银刀叉都

能承载更多的东西)”并结合第三段讲述祖父教作者使用筷子，第四段讲述祖母用筷子表达对家人关心可知，作者通过这篇文章告诉我们筷子的含义。故选C。Nowresearchershavefoundthathumansp

理判断题。根据第一段“Whilepreviousstudieshavesuggesteddogsmightnoticehumanemotions,possiblythroughsmell,questionsremainedoverwhe

thertheycoulddetectstressandifthiscouldbedonethroughsmell.”（虽然之前的研究表明，狗可能通过嗅觉察觉到人类的情绪，但它们是否能察觉到压力，以及是否能通过嗅觉察觉到压力

，仍存在疑问。）及后面开始的实验可以推断，Wilson和同事们做实验是为了证明狗能够嗅出有压力的人。故选B。57．细节理解题。根据第二段“Wilson,headofoneresearchteam,pointedthefindingscouldproveusefulwhentr

ainingservicedogs,suchasthosethatsupportpeoplewithPTSD(创伤后应激障碍).”（Wilson是一个研究小组的负责人，他指出，这一发现在训练服务犬时很有用，比如那些支持PTSD患者的服务犬。）和“They’reoftentrainedt

olookatsomeoneeithercrouchingdownonthefloor,cryingoutinfear,orstartingtodoself-injuriousbehaviors”（它们通常被训练成看着那些蹲在地板上、害怕地大喊大叫或开始做自残行为的人）可

知，服务犬通常会在人们有伤害自己或是自残行为时提供帮助。故选A。58．细节理解题。根据第三段“Wilsonandcolleaguestrainedfourdogstoidentifythecontainerholdingaparticularbreathandsweatsample,”（Wi

lson和他的同事们训练了四只狗来识别装着特定呼吸和汗水样本的容器）可知，这是实验的第一步a；根据第三段“theyturnedtocollectbreathandsweatsamplescollect

edfrom36peopleaskedtocountbackwardsfrom9,000inunitsof17,andtheparticipantsreportedfeelingstressed.”（他们收集了36人的呼吸和汗水样本，这些样本被要求以17为单位从9

000开始倒数，参与者表示感到有压力。）可知，先是要求参与者以17为单位从9000开始倒数，即第二步d，再当他们感到有了压力时收集他们的呼吸和汗水样本，即第三步c；最后根据第四段“Eachsetofsampleswasshowntoasingledog

in20trials.”（每组样本在20次试验中向一只狗展示。）可知，最后一步是在20次实验中向一只狗展示每组样本，即第四步b。所以实验顺序是a-d-c-b。故选A。59．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Itwasprettyamazingtoseeho

wsmoothlythedogsactintellingpeoplethesetwosamplesdefinitelydifferent.”（看到狗狗们如此流畅地告诉人们这两个样本绝对不同是非常令人惊叹的。）及其

中的“amazing”可知，作者认为实验的结果是肯定的、令人惊叹的。故选B。Natehadspentmostofhisseventyyearsinthewoods.Asayoungman,hehadthealternat

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，常年生活在森林的内特有一天和作者及作者表弟亚瑟正在穿越一片草地，亚瑟问小白蘑菇能不能吃，然而亚瑟误解了内特的回答，侧面反映内特对森林是多么明智，对语言是多么吝啬。60．细节理解题。由第一

段中的“Buthedecidedthaturbanlifewasnotforhim.Hepreferredtoisolatehimselffromothersandfindshelterinnaturefromthecrowdsandnoiseofth

ecity.Hewasmorethanwillingtogiveupsuchadvantagesasflushtoiletsandelectricblanketsforthejoyofwatchingasunriseilluminatethefrozenpines.(但他

决定城市生活不适合他。他宁愿把自己与他人隔离开来，在大自然中寻找庇护，远离人群和城市的喧嚣。他非常愿意放弃冲水马桶和电热毯等优势，去享受看日出照亮冰冻松树的喜悦)”可知，在树林里享受日出能让内特更快乐。故选

D项。61．细节理解题。由第二段中的“Hisknowledgeofnaturewasextensive,andsoIlearnedmuchfromhimthroughtheyears.(他对自然的了解非常广泛，所以这些年来我从他那里学

到了很多东西)”可知，内特是个很有知识的人。故选C项。62．推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Weusedtoputtheminabowlonthetabletokillflies!”(我们曾经把蘑菇放在桌子上的碗里，用来杀苍蝇！)”可知，蘑菇可以用来杀苍蝇，

可得出蘑菇有毒。故选C项。63．主旨大意题。第一段讲“常年生活在森林的内特喜欢自然，不喜欢城市生活”，第二段讲“内特的一些品质（行为无法预测和知识广博）”，第三段和后文对话通过“蘑菇是否能吃”反映内特对森林是多么明智，对语言是多么吝啬，全文围绕主人翁内

特展开，C项“林居者内特”能概括全文。故选C项。AJapanesecompanyrecentlyreleasedawhitecrust(吐司皮)milkbreadthatithopeswillstopthehabitofremovingthecrustwhenmakin

B【导语】本文为说明文，主要讲述了帝国酒店将要采用白面包皮的原因。64．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Thisconceptdatesbacktoatimelongagowhenthecrustwashardertochew(咀嚼)through,b

utthingsaredefinitelyalotdifferenttoday.Thecrustisniceandsoft,butpeoplestillseemtoprefercrustlesssandwich

es(这个概念可以追溯到很久以前，当时吐司皮很难咀嚼，但今天的情况肯定大不相同。吐司皮很好很软，但人们似乎还是喜欢无壳三明治)”可知，虽然吐司皮比以前更软，但人们还坚持以前的想法，更倾向于无壳三明治。由此推知，人们更喜欢无壳三明治是因为固定的习惯。故选D项。65．词义猜测题。

根据第三段中“Peoplehavebeencomingupwithallsortsofwaystorecyclebreadcrustsinordertocontrolfoodwaste,butSugi

moto’sideawastocreateacrustthatdidn’thavetobethrownawayinthefirstplace(人们已经想出了各种各样的方法来回收面包皮，以控制食物浪费，但Sugimoto的想法是创造一种从一开始就不必扔掉的面包皮)”可知，Sugimo

to的想法是创造一种不需要去掉面包皮的新型面包。由此可知，划线词坐在句子意为“东京帝国酒店的主厨Sugimoto和他的团队花了六个月的时间开发了一种无需去皮的新型面包”，即eliminates意为“去除”，故选C项。66．细节理解题。根据第四段“AlthoughImperialHoteldidno

tfullyrevealthesecretbehinditsnewwhitecrustbread,itdidmentionthatitisbakedslowlyatalowertemperaturethanre

gularbread,whichresultsinawhitecolorallthroughthebreadandamoremoisttexture(虽然帝国酒店没有完全揭示其新的白面包皮背后的秘密，但它确实提到了它在比普通面包低的温度下缓慢烘焙，这导致整个面包呈

白色，质地更加湿润)”可知，普通面包需要的温度高，故选C项。67．细节理解题。根据第五段中“startingonOctober1stofthisyear,theywillswitchtothisnewwhitecrustbread,thusdecreasingitsf

oodwasteconsiderably(从今年10月1日开始，他们将改用这种新的白面包，从而大大减少食物浪费)”可知，改用白面包皮的目的是要减少食物浪费，故选B项。About600,000peopledi

率的最有用因素之一。）可知，Knopov认为Pumpstart可以对公众健康产生长期影响，有助于提高医院外心脏病发作患者的存活率，由此可知，AnitaKnopov认为这个项目非常有用。故选A项。71．词义猜测题。根据画线单词下文“Andinthatcasewecanusel

otsofnew‘Pumpstarts’inotherregions.”（在这种情况下，我们可以在其他地区使用许多新的“Pumpstarts”。）可知，“我们”希望可以在其他地区使用许多新的“Pumpstarts”，由

此可知，我们希望我们的工作能够激励其他领域类似项目的发展，这样就可以在其他地区使用许多新的“Pumpstarts”。由此可知划线词意为“激励”，与encourage同义。故选C项。Whatisthefirstthingthatpopsinto

C75．B【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，文章介绍了一家建筑承包商为福建省厦门市的一个建筑工地的200多名农民工建造了一座图书馆，让工人们从手机游戏或短视频中走出来，拿起书本，爱上阅读，丰富了农民工的文化生活。72．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Shehasworkedo

nmanyconstructionsites,butthisistheonlyonewithalibrary.(她在许多建筑工地上工作过，但这是唯一一个有图书馆的。)”可知，Dongqun在许多建筑工地上工作过，但是只有福建厦门的这一个建筑工

地上建了图书馆，此外，文章中所提到的农民工都是目前在这个有图书馆的建筑工地上班的农民工，而不能推知中国的农民工都是如此，故B项“ReadinghasgaineditspopularityamongmigrantworkersinChina.(阅读在中国的农民工中越来越普及/受欢迎。)”错误。故选B

。73．推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Isitthedustyair,thenoiseofheavymachinery,thetoilingworkerssoaked(湿透的)withsweatorthequietenjoymentofbook

s?(是尘土飞扬的空气，重型机械的噪音，汗流浃背的工人，还是安静地享受书籍?)”以及第二段“ThelatteriswhatoneconstructionsiteinXiamencity,EastChina’s

ingalibraryforthesite’s200-plusworkers.(后者是中国东部福建省厦门市的一个建筑工地。由于一家建筑承包商为该工地的200多名员工建造了一座图书馆，它很快成为周六世界读书日的焦点。)

”可知作者认为由于这个图书馆农民工可以安静地享受阅读；结合第三段第二句“ItwassetupbyChinaConstructionThirdEngineeringBureauGroupCo,earlierthismonthtopromotereadingandb

ringknowledgeandpleasuretotheconstructionworkers.(该活动由中国建筑第三工程局集团有限公司于本月早些时候成立，旨在促进阅读，为建筑工人带来知识和快乐。)”以及第四段最后一句“Theroomisair-conditionedsothe

workerscanreadcomfortablythere.(房间里有空调，所以工作人员可以在那里舒适地阅读。)”可推知作者对于在建筑工地建图书馆是非常赞成的。故选C。74．推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“ItwassetupbyCh

inaConstructionThirdEngineeringBureauGroupCo,earlierthismonthtopromotereadingandbringknowledgeandpleasuretotheconstructionworker

s.(它是由中国建筑第三工程局集团公司于本月初设立的，旨在促进建筑工人阅读，给他们带来知识和乐趣。)”中的“earlierthismonth(本月初)”以及文章的详细内容可知，本文应是新闻报道。故选C

。75．推理判断题。文章第二段中“ItquicklybecamethefocusofattentiononWorldBookDay(它很快成为世界读书日关注的焦点)”提到世界读书日；由第六段“Comparedwithplayi

ryandateasmallerlunchasaresult.(研究人员记录了这些女性的饮食习惯，发现在午餐前，早餐吃鸡蛋的女性感觉不那么饿，因此午餐吃得更少。)”可知，早餐吃鸡蛋能让你在一天剩下的时间里减少超过400卡路里的热量摄入。由此可知，早餐吃鸡蛋能让你在

午餐吃得少一些。故选B项。77．词义猜测题。根据文章第三段中的“Researcherspointedoutthatcertainfoodsleadtoagreatersenseofbeingfull.Aneggisanexampleof

suchfoodthathasa50%greatersatietyindex(指数)comparedtowhitebreadorready-to-eatbreakfastporridge.(研究人员指出，某些食物会让人产生更强的饱腹感。鸡蛋就是这样一种食物，它的饱腹指数

比白面包或即食早餐粥高出50%。)”可知，研究指出一些事物会让人产生更强的饱腹感，鸡蛋的饱腹指数比白面包或即食早餐粥高出50%。由此可知，satiety与前面的senseofbeingfull互为同义表达，表示“满足、饱足”。故选D项。7

8．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“Ifyoufeellikestartingthedaywitheggs,wesuggestyouavoidfryingthemandeatthemwithwholeme

altoastandasmallglassofvitaminC-richunsweetenedorangejuice,whichwillhelpthebodymakethebestuseoftheironintheeggs.(如果你想用鸡蛋开始新

的一天，我们建议鸡蛋不要煎，而是搭配全麦吐司和一小杯富含维生素C的无糖橙汁来吃，这将有助于身体充分利用鸡蛋中的铁。)”可知，食品标准局建议早餐吃鸡蛋不要煎，而是搭配全麦吐司和一杯无糖橙汁。故选A项。79．主旨大意题。阅读文章可知，文章第一段第一句话“Goingtoworkonacoupleo

feggsmightbethewayforwardifyouwanttoloseweight.(如果你想减肥，吃几个鸡蛋可能是前进的道路。)”提到了，如果想减肥的话，吃鸡蛋是可行的；第二、三段通过实验证明吃鸡蛋更有饱腹

感，有助于减肥；第四段说明了鸡蛋热量低，营养价值高。由此可知，本文主要论述了吃鸡蛋有助于减肥，C项“EatEggsforWeightLoss(吃鸡蛋减肥)”最能概括本文主要内容。故选C项。Oneofthegreatestsourcesofunhappiness

要学会去接受、理解事物本来的面貌，本质，然后就会有意想不到的收获。80．细节理解题。根据第二段“Therootoftheunhappinessisn’tnecessarilythatwewantthingstobedifferent.However,it’sthatwedecidedwedid

n’tlikeitinthefirstplace.(不快乐的根源不一定是我们希望事情有所不同。然而，是我们一开始就决定不喜欢它。)”可知，作者认为人们不快乐的根源是从一开始我们就不喜欢某些东西，不愿意接受它们本来的样

子。故选D项。81．细节理解题。根据第三段“Somereaderssaidit’stoosorrowfultoexpectthingstogowrong.(一些读者说，期待事情会出错太令人悲伤了。)”可知，一些读者认为作者的话太过消沉，悲观。故选A项。82．词句猜

测题。根据第四段“Acceptthesethingsastheyare,andtrytounderstandwhythey’rethatway.Itwillsaveyoualotofsadness,becauseyou’llnolon

gersay,“Oh.Iwishbadthingsdidn’thappen.”(接受这些事情本来的样子，并试着理解为什么会是这样。它会帮你省去很多悲伤，因为你不会再说“哦。我希望坏事没有发生。”)”可知，只有接受事物本身的样子，你才不会感到那么悲伤，可推知此处i

t指代前面内容，即接受事物本身的样子，并去理解为什么是这样的。故选C项。83．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Oneofthegreatestsourcesofunhappiness,inmyexperience,isthedifficultywehaveinacceptingthingsasthe

yare.(根据我的经验，不快乐的最大来源之一是我们难以接受事物的本来面目。)”以及余下全文可知，文章开头提出人们不快乐的根源是不愿意接受事物本来的样子，然后进一步分析说明，最后建议人们为了快乐就要学会接受、理解。由此可知B选项“Acceptingcanmakeourlifehapp

ierandbetter.(接受让我们的生活变得更快乐和更好。)”符合语意。故选B项。PerhapsmyfavoriteplaceduringmytriptoGuangxiwastheLongjiRiceTerraces

．A85．A86．C87．D【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了去广西龙脊梯田参观的经历和体会。84．细节理解题。根据文章的第二段“Theseover600-year-oldterracesarestill

的第三段“MyfriendsandIhadarrivedinGuangxionharvestdayandweweretoldbyourlocalguideitwastoolatetoseeLongjiinitsautumnalbeauty.Butweweresu

我的朋友们是在收获日到达广西的，当地导游告诉我们，已经来不及欣赏龙脊的秋日美景了。但我们非常幸运，因为2021年的收获时间被推迟了，几天后我们到达龙胜时，是收获开始前的最后一天。以这种方式选择参观时间是很冒险的，但无论是收获前还是收获后，龙脊梯田都呈现出一种全

新的风貌，令人惊叹)”可知，作者虽然去的时间晚了，但是因为收获时间的推迟，作者不仅欣赏的龙脊梯田收获前的景色，也欣赏到收获后的美景。故选A项。86．细节理解题。根据第四段的最后三句话“WechoseJinkengbecau

seit’shometothehighestpointoftheLongjiRiceTerraces.Theviewpointisnearly4,000feethigh.Wehadtogoupthereasourhotelwasupthere,butyousho

uldanywayasit’sthemostwonderfulviewpoint.(我们选择金坑是因为这里是龙脊梯田的最高点。观景台近4000英尺高。我们必须去那里，因为我们的酒店就在那里，但无论如何你应该去，因为那里有最好的观景台)”可知，作者选择金坑梯

田的原因是那里有最好的观景台。故选C项。87．推理判断题。因为这篇文章中作者讲述的是他去广西龙脊梯田参观的经历，所以这篇文章应该来自于一本旅游杂志。故选D项。Whatkindofpeoplecanbecomescie

stendtofeelconnectedtoscientists.【答案】88．A89．D90．B91．C【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究人员向九年级和十年级的学生提出“什么样的人可以成为科学家”

这个问题时，几乎每个学生的回答都是“努力学习的人”或“对科学领域感兴趣的人”。为了解除这种误解，研究人员设计了一项干预，即了解更多关于科学家的奋斗可以帮助学生更有动力学习科学，结果发现，听过任何一种“奋斗故事”的学生在干预后的科学表现都有所提高。88．推理判

断题。根据第一段的“Manyofthesesamestudentsstruggledtoimaginethemselvesasscientists,citingconcernssuchas‘I’mnotgoodatscience’and

‘EvenifIworkhard,Iwillnotdowell.’It’seasyforthemtoseeascientist’sworkasarisingfromaninborntalent.(同样是这些学生中的许多人都很难将自己想象成科学家，

理由是“我不擅长科学”和“即使我努力工作，也不会做得很好”。他们很容易将科学家的工作视为天生的才能)”可知，这些学生认为能够成为科学家是天生的才能，“自己不擅长”或“即使努力也无法做好”这样的理由可以看作为他们缺乏自信，从而很

难将自己想象成科学家。故选A项。89．推理判断题。根据第二段的“ResearchersattheUniversityofWashingtondesignedanintervention(干预)tochangestudents’beliefsth

atscientificachievementdependsonabilityratherthaneffortbyexposingstudentstostoriesofhowaccomplishedscientistsstruggledandovercamechallengesinthei

rscientificefforts.(教师学院、哥伦比亚大学和华盛顿大学的研究人员设计了一种干预措施，让学生了解有成就的科学家在科学努力中如何努力和克服挑战的故事，从而改变学生们认为科学成就反映的是能力而不是努力的观念)”可知

，这项干预通过让学生们了解科学家们是如何努力奋斗克服挑战的，以澄清学生对科学工作的误解。故选D项。90．词义猜测题。分析可知，非限制性定语从句“forwhomexposuretostrugglingstoriesledtosignificantlybetterscience-clas

sperformancethanlow-performingstudentswhoreadachievementstories.(对他们来说，接触奋斗故事比阅读成就故事的成绩差的学生在科学课上表现更好)”的先行词为“lowerperformingstudents(成绩差的学

生)”，因此可知，在“干预”后，接触奋斗故事的成绩差的学生和阅读成就故事的成绩差的学生在科学课上都有了好的表现，且二者之间通过对比出现了“更好”。由此推知，干预对于成绩差的学生效果显著，因此，“Theeffectwasespeciallypronounced”应是“效果显著

”的意思，即划线词应是“明显的，显著的”与noticeable同义。故选B项。91．推理判断题。根据文章末尾内容“Byrecognizingascientist’sstrugglesandintroducingthegrowth

mindsetheorsheappliedtoaccomplishgreatworks,thestudentswereabletoempathize(共情)withthescientistsduringtheirownstruggles.(通过认识科学家的奋斗，并介绍他或她在完成伟

大工作时所运用的成长心态，学生们能够在科学家的奋斗过程中感同身受)”可知，通过了解一个科学家的奋斗史，学生们使得自己在奋斗过程中能够产生与科学家的共鸣，从而能够改变之前的对于科学家工作的误解。由此可推知，科学家的奋斗故事可以影响读者的信

划线词inspiration的下文“Thesetripsarenormallyfullofrentalcars,beaches.andhamburgers.”可知，父母带孩子出门旅行时，父母负责租车，选定游玩的沙滩和解决吃饭的问题。由此可见，父母就是旅行的总指挥，

是向导，B项意为“向导”，符合题意。故选B。93．细节理解题。根据第四段“Themainreasonforthis,understandably,wasthatneitherofthemhadeverbeeninacountrywhe

reyoudriveonthelefthandsideoftheroadandontherighthandsideofthecar”（这一点的主要原因是，他们两人都不习惯驾驶座位在汽车右侧，并且汽车上路靠左行驶的交通规则，这一点是可以理解的）可知，父母二

人都不习惯驾驶座位在汽车右侧，并且汽车上路靠左行驶的交通规则。故选A。94．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者小时候跟着父母旅游，父母负责安排。长大后，作者陪父母去新西兰旅游，一路上订宾馆，当司机，长途开车，虽累但是幸福。所以最佳

题目应紧扣“旅行”和“父母”两个关键词，B项意为“和父母旅行”，符合题意。选B。95．推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“Actually,Ihavesometipsontravellingwithparentshappily.”

（事实上，我有一些和父母一起快乐旅行的小贴士。）可知，作者接下来，要和大家分享和父母快乐出游的建议。故选D。Scientistshavediscoveredthatchimps(黑猩猩)talktoeachotherbydrummingontreesw

A98．C99．B【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了黑猩猩是热爱交流的物种，但是科学家们通过研究KnowsleySafariPark的黑猩猩发现，封闭期间，动物园没有游客来访，黑猩猩们变得内向孤单，动物园重新开放后，游客的到来又干扰了黑猩猩们的休息。孰是孰非?

96．细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientistshavediscoveredthatchimps(黑猩猩)talktoeachotherbydrummingontreeswiththeirhandsandfeet.Iti

sawayofsendinglong-distancemessages.”（科学家们发现黑猩猩通过用手和脚在树上敲鼓来互相交谈。这是一种发送长途信息的方式）可知，黑猩猩击打树干是为了远程传递信息，是为了交流，

故选D。97．细节理解题。根据第三段“Anewstudyhasfoundthatsomechimpswerequieterandlazierthanusualduringthelockdownmonths.

”（一项新的研究发现，在封锁期间，一些黑猩猩比平时更安静、更懒）和第四段“Whenthezoowasclosed,somechimpsspentmoretimealoneandmovedaboutless.”（当动物

园关闭时，一些黑猩猩独处的时间更长，活动更少）可知，封闭期间，黑猩猩们独处的时间多了，来回走动少了，变得更安静，更懒惰，即不活跃了。故选A。98．推理判断题。根据第四段“Whenthesitesreopenedandvi

sitorsreturned.theyspentlesstimerestingandatemoreandexploredmore.InKnowsley,theywereeagertogetclosetovisitors’carsmoreoften.

”（动物园再次开门时，游客的到来让黑猩猩们睡得少了，但是吃得多了，更爱探索，也更爱靠近游客的汽车了）可知，动物园重新开放后黑猩猩们变得活跃、兴奋起来。故选C。99．细节理解题。根据第三段“Thestud

ytookplaceinKnowsleySafariPark(野生动物园)inEngland.Itcomparedthechimps’behaviorduringperiodsoflockdownin2020and2021—whenthezoowasclosedandtheywerenotbei

越来越重视自己的健康了，分析了产生这一现象的原因以及专家对此的看法。100．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Recently,anewgreetinghasemergedinmanyChinesecities,namely“Haveyo

ulostweight?”(最近，在中国许多城市出现了一种新的问候语，那就是“你减肥了吗?”)”以及第二段中“Butpeoplearepayingmoreandmoreattentiontotheirhealth.(但是人们越来越重视自己的健康)”可知，从人们问候语的变化，我们可以了解到

人们更加关注健康。故选C项。。101．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Asthequalityoflifeformosthasgreatlyimprovedoverthepastdecades,mostpeoplenolong

食物选择。故选D项。102．推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Healthisanimportantindicatorofastate'ssoftpower,andtheimprovementofoverallhealthconditionscanhaveapositiveimpactonecono

micdevelopment,”Wangsaid.(“健康是一个国家软实力的重要指标，整体健康状况的改善可以对经济发展产生积极影响”王说)”可推知，健康在社会中起着重要作用。故选A项。103．主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Inr

’tgluedtothetinyscreen,fingersmovingatlightningspeeds,textingtheirfriends,emailingco-workersorlisteningtomusic.Itmayseemridiculous(荒谬的)that

someoneisthataddictedtosuchasmallobject.(很难找到一个不粘在小屏幕上、手指以闪电般的速度移动、给朋友发短信、给同事发邮件或听音乐的人。有人对这么小的东西如此上瘾，这似乎很荒谬)”可知，第一段描述了智能手机成瘾现象。故

选A项。105．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“It’shardtofindsomeonewhoisn’tgluedtothetinyscreen,fingersmovingatlightningspeeds,textin

gtheirfriends,emailingco-workersorlisteningtomusic.Itmayseemridiculous(荒谬的)thatsomeoneisthataddictedtosuchasmallobject.(很难找到一个不粘在小屏幕上、手指以闪电

般的速度移动、给朋友发短信、给同事发邮件或听音乐的人。有人对这么小的东西如此上瘾，这似乎很荒谬)”可知，人们对智能手机很上瘾。再根据下文“iftheirphonehasbeentakenaway,lostorleftathome.(如果他们的手机被拿走、丢失或丢在家里)”可知，人们手

机成瘾，如果手机被拿走、丢失或丢在家里，人们就会不知所措。由此推知，划线部分attheirwits’end与ataloss(不知所措)意思接近。故选B项。106．主旨大意题。根据第四段“However,it’s

hardtoavoidelectronicsinthisdayandagebecausealmosteverythingisturningintoanelectronicformat.Books,originallymeantforpaperdesign,are

迷于科技)”可知，第四段主要是关于智能手机的未来趋势。故选B项。107．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Isthereacureforelectronicaddiction?Simplyturningelectronicsofffora

nhourortwoadaymayhelptoanextent,butitwillnotcompletelyovercomeelectronicaddiction.Thereonlyseemstobeonecureleft,anditmaybethehardest:self-contr

ol.(有治疗电子成瘾的方法吗?简单地每天关掉电子设备一两个小时可能会在一定程度上有所帮助，但它不会完全克服电子成瘾。似乎只有一种治疗方法，而且可能是最难的：自我控制)”可知，关于治疗手机上瘾，作者在文中给出的建议是发展和提高自我控制能力。故选C项

9．D110．D111．A【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了11岁只有80磅重的亚当救了34岁溺水男士的故事。108．细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“Luckily,theybelievedthatAdamshou

ldhaveafewswimminglessons.‘Somesurvivalskillsareamust,’hisfathersaid.(幸运的是，他们认为亚当应该上几节游泳课。“一些生存技能是必须的，”他的父亲说。)”可知，亚当

的父亲认为一些生存技能是必须的，而游泳是生存技能之一，因此，亚当应该上游泳课以保障他在水里的安全。故选D项。109．细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“Whentroublestruckinthepool,however,Adam’sfatherhadtriedtohelpthemanfr

omaswimring,buthecouldn’treachtheman’shand.(然而，当麻烦在游泳池里发生时，亚当的父亲试图用游泳圈帮助这个人，但他够不到他的手。)”可知，亚当入水前，亚当的父亲想用游泳圈帮助这个溺水的人。故选D项。110．细节理解题。根据文章第五

段内容“…Adamsuccessfullymanagedtopullthemanuptothesurfaceandgethimoutofthepool.ThoughAdam’sunclehadneverreceivedCPRtraini

ng,hestartedCPRonthemanbasedonwhathehadseeninmoviesandtelevision.(……亚当成功地把那个人拉上了水面，把他从泳池里救了出来。尽管亚当的叔叔从未接受过心肺复苏术训练，但他根据在电影和电视中看到的情景，开始对这个男士进行

心肺复苏急救。)”可知，被亚当救上岸后，亚当的叔叔给这个人做了心脏复苏急救。故选D项。111．推理判断题。根据文章首段内容“Whennooneelsewasabletosaveadrowning34-year-oldman,aboyweighingo

nly80poundsquicklybecamehishero.(当没有人能救下一个溺水的34岁男子时，一个只有80磅重的男孩迅速成为了他的英雄。)”可知，亚当只有11岁，80磅重，却救了34岁的男士，这说明他是勇敢的。故选A项。Overthelast25y

案】112．C113．A114．D115．C116．A【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是在过去的25年里，英国社会发生了很大的变化。然而，关于一个人是“工人阶级”还是“中产阶级”的社会阶层观念却几乎没有发生变化。112．细节理解题

。根据文章第二段“Inthepast,theworking-classtendedtobepaidlessthanmiddle-classpeople,suchasteachersanddoctors.Asaresultofth

isandalsoofthefactthatworkers’jobsweregenerallymuchlesssecure,distinctdifferencesinlife-stylesandattitudescameintoexistence.(在过去

，工人阶级的收入往往低于中产阶级，如教师和医生。由于这一点，也由于工人的工作普遍缺乏保障，生活方式和态度出现了明显的差异。)”可知收入和稳定性被看做是阶级不同的主要原因。故选C项。113．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“

Thetypeofwhatamiddle-classmandidwithhismoneywasperhapsnearerthetruth.Hewasandstillislikelytotakealong

er-termview.Notonlydidheregardbuyingahousetoprovidehimandhisfamilywithsecurity.(中产阶级的人是如何处理他的钱的也许更接近事实。他过去和现在都很可能有更长远的眼光。他认为买房子不

仅是为了给他和他的家人提供保障。)”可知中产阶级处理钱财的方式在过去和现在没有区别，所以作者在向我们表明文章对于中产阶级花钱方式的描述是相当真实的。故选A项。114．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Infacttherehasbeenagrowingtendencyinthe

pastfewyearsforthemiddle-classestofeelslightlyashamedoftheirposition.(事实上，在过去几年里，中产阶级对自己的地位感到有点羞愧的趋势越来越大。)”可知中产阶级现在对自己的地位有时会感到

自卑，所以可以推断在过去中产阶级的典型特点是他们对于自己没有自卑感。故选D项。115．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Nowadays,muchhaschanged.Inalargenumberofcasesfactoryworkersearn

asmuch.Socialsecurityandlawshavemadeitlessnecessarythanbeforetoworryabout“tomorrow”.Working-classpeopleseemslowlytobelosingth

efeelingofinferiority(自卑感)theyhadinthepast.(如今，情况发生了很大变化。在很多情况下，工厂工人的收入和中产阶级一样多。社会保障和法律使人们不再像以前那样担心“明天”。工人阶级似乎正

在失去他们以往的自卑感。)”可知收入的增加，法律保障以及社会保障的提供都让工人阶级的安全感增加了，而C项的betterjobsareavailableforallofthem文章中没有提到。故选C项。116．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Infacttherehasbeenag

rowingtendencyinthepastfewyearsforthemiddle-classestofeelslightlyashamedoftheirposition.(事实上，在过去几年里，中产阶级

对自己的地位感到有点羞愧的趋势越来越大。)”可知中产阶级有时会感到自卑，依据最后一段“Thechangesinbothlife-stylesandattitudesareprobablymosteasilyseenamongyoungerpeop

le.Theygenerallytendtoshareverysimilartastesinmusicandclothes.Theyspendtheirmoneyenjoyingthemselves,andsaveforholidaysorlonger-termplanswhennec

级之间的收入差距仍然存在，依据第一段“Overthelast25years,Britishsocietyhaschangedagreatdeal.Insomeways,however,verylittlehaschanged.Ideasaboutsocialclasswhethera

阶层观念是一个变化极其缓慢的领域。)”可知在英国社会阶层观念几乎没有发生改变，所以选项AChangesareslowlytakingplaceinallaspectsoftheBritishsociety.不正确。故选A项。Thetornadoesthatrecen

文章介绍了美国最近遭受了历史上最具破坏性和致命性的龙卷风的袭击，专家认为美国近年来频发的龙卷风可能与气候变化相关。117．细节理解题。根据第一段“Thescaleofdestructionandtimingofthetornadoessolateintheye

ar—mosttornadoeshappeninthespringandsummer(今年晚些时候龙卷风的破坏规模和发生时间——大多数龙卷风发生在春季和夏季)”和第二段“‘WatchingthesestormsonFridaynigh

t,mythoughtwas,‘Isnoseasonsafe?’ExtremetornadoesinDecember.Thatwasmindblowingtome.’(“周五晚上看到这些风暴，我的想法是，‘没

有安全的季节了吗？’12月的极端龙卷风。这让我大吃一惊。”)”可知，过去龙卷风发生在春季和夏季，而最近的龙卷风发生在12月。故选B。118．推理判断题。根据第三段“Scientistshaveseverali

deasabouthowtornadobehaviormaychange.(科学家们对龙卷风轨迹可能如何改变有几种想法。)”和“Butitremainstobeseenwhetherclimatechangewillstrengthenorincrea

sethefrequencyoftornadoes.(但气候变化是否会加强或增加龙卷风的频率还有待观察。)”可得出，科学家对龙卷风轨迹怎样变化没有定论，不确定气候变化如何影响龙卷风。故选D。119．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“However,“giventhegeneralinfluence

ofglobalwarmingontheatmosphere,itmakessensethatitshouldbehavinganeffectontornadoestoo,”saysVictorGensini,anextremeweatherexpertatNorthernIllinois

University.“Ratherthanasking:‘Didclimatechangecausethistornado?’,it’sbettertooperateunderthethoughtthatclimatechan

ctorGensini认为气候变化很可能对龙卷风产生影响。故选C。120．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Whilethescienceonclimatechangeandtornadoesisn’tclear,meteorologistsarepred

认为我们还未outofthewoods。”根西尼说。)”可知，本月可能还会发生龙卷风，Gensini很担心，觉得人们还未摆脱龙卷风的危险，outofthewoods在此处意为“outofdanger(脱

离危险)”。故选C。Parentscancutthechancesoftheirchildrengettingfatsimplybykeepingthemlongerattable.Justthreeextraminutes

该给孩子们更多的时间吃饭，那样可以帮助咀嚼和消化，才不会肥胖。121．细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“DrBarbaraFiesesaid,“Children,whosefamilieshavea20-minutemealoverfourtimesaweek,we

ighlighterthankidswholeavethetableafter15to17minutes.(芭芭拉•菲斯博士说：“孩子们的家人每周吃4次20分钟的饭，比15到17分钟后离开餐桌的孩子体重轻。)

”可知，对于家庭就餐来说20分钟的时间是合情合理的。故选D。122．段落大意题。根据第三段第一句“Researchersstudied200familymealtimes,testingtheinfluence

sofmealtimehabitsoffamilieswithchildreninprimaryschool.(研究人员研究了200个家庭用餐时间，测试了小学有孩子的家庭用餐习惯的影响。)”可知，这段作者想要向我

们展示一下一项研究结果。故选A。123．细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Similarly,families,whotalkedmoretogetherandcommunicatedmorepositivelyduringthem

eal,weremorelikelytohavehealthy-weightchildren.(同样地，那些在吃饭时更愿意交谈、交流更积极的家庭，更有可能有健康的体重孩子。)”可知，较长的用餐时间有利于多与孩子交流。故选C。124．主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“Parents

cancutthechancesoftheirchildrengettingfatsimplybykeepingthemlongerattable.(父母只要让孩子长时间坐在餐桌上，就可以减少他们发胖的机会。)”及全文可知，这篇文章主要讲的是更长的家

庭用餐时间有助于防止儿童肥胖。所以“LongerFamilyMealtimeHelpChildFatness.(延长家庭用餐时间有助于儿童肥胖。)”符合上下文语境。故选D。OnOctober27,2021

茶，并在任何活动前休息几个小时)”可知，喝大量的古柯叶茶可以缓解高原反应。故选C。126．推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“LeavingCuscothenextday,westoppedattheMorayRuins,

whichwereusedforfarmingbytheIncas.Theirsizeanduniquedesignshouldbeconsideredalessoninhistoricalengineeringskills

.(第二天离开库斯科，我们在印加人用于耕种的海鳗遗址停留。它们的大小和独特的设计应该被视为历史工程技能的一课)”可知，海鳗遗址原来用于耕种，其设计很有意义，可称之为历史工程技能的一课，与D项“They’reanexampleofcreativeengineering.

(它们是创造性工程的一个例子)”意思相符，故选D。127．推理判断题。根据第五段“Youcan’tgotoPeruwithoutvisitinghistoricMachuPicchu.The‘road’uptotheruin

sismadeupofanendlessseriesofswitchbacks(急转弯),resultingincoldsweats.Itwasworththeride,though.(去秘鲁一定要参观历史名胜

MachuPicchu。通往废墟的‘路’是由无尽的急转弯组成的，会导致出一身冷汗。不过，这趟旅程是值得的)”可知，作者眼中的MachuPicchu之行会让你吓出一身冷汗，但是也很值得。故选B。128．推理判断题。根据最后一段第三句“Thebestthingwetookawayretur

ninghometoVancouverIslandwashowsimpleandcaringthepeopleareandhowdeeplytheylovetheearthandeveryonetheymeet.(回到温哥华岛，我们带走的最好的东西是人们是多么简单和

关怀，以及他们多么热爱地球和他们遇到的每个人)”可知，这次秘鲁的旅行使作者感受到了那里的人们的简单和关怀，并鼓励他也变得更有爱心。故选A。Wantingtoloseweightorquitsmokingareoftenresolutions

29．D130．C131．B132．A【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了美国每年做出的最受欢迎的决心中约有一半与健康有关，除了减肥和戒烟外，他们还包括吃更健康的食物，保持健康，控制压力和减少饮酒，但要实现健康生活的决心，你需要做好改变的准备

，多样化是生活的关键，可以让你不至于筋疲力尽。129．主旨大意题。阅读全文和第二段“MegBakersayswhilethefocusonself-improvementisgood,anindividualmustbereadytomakeachange

inordertoactuallydoso.“Readinesstochangeisabigfactor,”Bakersaid.(梅格·贝克说，虽然注重自我提升是好事，但个人必须做好改变的准备，才能真正

做到这一点)”可知，美国每年做出的最受欢迎的决心中约有一半与健康有关，除了减肥和戒烟外，他们还包括吃更健康的食物，保持健康，控制压力和减少饮酒，但要实现健康生活的决心，你需要做好改变的准备，多样化是生活的关键，可以让你不至于筋疲力

尽，即这篇文章主要告诉我们做好改变的准备对实现新年决心很重要。故选D。130．细节理解题。根据第三段“Talktoafamilymember,friendorco-workeraboutgoals,thisaccountabilitywillincre

asethepossibilityofyourstayingcommittedtoanewgymplanorquit-smokingplay,andtheymaywanttojoinyou.(和家人、朋友或同事谈谈你的目标，这种责任感会增加你坚持一个新的健身计划或戒烟

游戏的可能性，他们可能会想要加入你)”可知，与他人共享目标可以帮助人们遵守计划。故选C。131．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““Whetheritistoimproveyourenergylevel,improvemood,combathealthconditionsand

disease,ortobethereforyourkids,future,there’salwaysareasonthataresolutionwasmade,”Bakersaid.(贝克说：“无论是为了提高你的能量水平、改

善情绪、对抗健康状况和疾病，还是为了你的孩子和未来，制定一个决心总是有原因的。”)”可推知，贝克对我的健康奖励计划持积极的态度。故选B。132．词句猜测题。根据最后一段画线词上文“Also,considerm

odificationstothenewplanifitisn’tviable.(此外，如果新计划不viable，请考虑对其进行修改)”可知，只有新计划行不通才需要进行修改。故画线词意为“可行的”。故选A。Recordfiressweepingacr

点，科学家和环保组织担心大火会加剧气候变化，威胁生物多样性。133．段落大意题。根据第二段首句“Asthelargestrainforestintheworld,theAmazonisoftencalled“thelungsofthewor

ld”.(作为世界上最大的雨林，亚马逊雨林常被称为“世界之肺”。)”可知，亚马逊雨林作为世界上最大的雨林，充当着“世界之肺”的重要角色。故选B。134．词义猜测题。根据文章第二段末句“Theyalsostorecarbondioxide(二氧化碳)andproduceoxygen,m

akingsurethatlesscarbonisgivenoff,mitigatingtheeffectsofclimatechange.(它们还储存二氧化碳并产生氧气，以确保释放的碳更少,气候变化的影响。)”可知，确保碳排放更少，会减轻气候变化的影响，所以画线词

是“减轻、减缓”的意思。故选A。135．推理判断题。根据第三段首句““Anyforestdestructionisaharmtobiodiversityandthepeoplewhousethatbiodiversity.”ThomasLovejoy,anecologistatGe

orgeMasonUniversitytoldNationalGeographic.(“任何对森林的破坏都是对生物多样性和使用这种生物多样性的人的伤害。”乔治梅森大学的生态学家托马斯·洛夫乔伊告诉《国家地理》杂志。)”以及末句““F

d,”UNSecretaryGeneralAntonioGuterressaid.(“面对全球气候变化，我们不能对氧气和生物多样性的主要来源造成更大的破坏。亚马逊必须得到保护，”联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯说。)”可知，他们都在说明

雨林大火的严重后果。故选B。136．推理判断题。根据首段“RecordfiressweepingacrosstheAmazonthismonthhavebeencatchingglobalheadlinesasscie

ntistsandenvironmentalgroupsareworriedthattheywillworsenclimatechangeanddodamagetobiodiversity(生物多样性)

.(本月横扫亚马逊的创纪录大火已经成为全球头条新闻，科学家和环保组织担心大火会加剧气候变化，破坏生物多样性。)”可知，本文主要介绍亚马逊雨林大火对气候变化以及生物多样性的影响，是关于自然和地理的话题。故选C。WhenKirkAlexand

及时报警，从而救了Kirk性命的经过。137．细节理解题。由第二段中的“TheonlysurethingforthestaffoftheSilvertonRoadDomino’swasthattheywouldseeAlexander’snameshowupontheironli

neorderingsitesometimebetween11p.m.andmidnightseveraltimesaweek.(对于SilvertonRoadDomino的员工来说，唯一可以肯定的是，他们

每周会在晚上11点到午夜的某个时候看到Alexander的名字出现在他们的在线订购网站上好几次)”，第三段“Untilsuddenly,fornearlytwoweeksattheendofApril2016,theydid

n’t.(直到2016年4月底，在将近两周的时间里，他们都没有没看Alexander的名字)”和第五段““Iwentandlookeduptoseehowlongithadbeensincehelastordered.

”FullertoldKATU.com.“Itwas11dayswhichwasnotlikehimatall.”(Fuller告诉KATU.com:“我查看了一下，他上次点单是多久以前的事，发现是11天前的事了，这完全不是他的风格。”)”可知，Fuller通过发现K

irk最近已经有11天（差不多两周）没在外卖店下单了感到不对劲。故选D项。138．推理判断题。由第二段中的“TheonlysurethingforthestaffoftheSilvertonRoadDomino’swasthat

theywouldseeAlexander’snameshowupontheironlineorderingsitesometimebetween11p.m.andmidnightseveraltimesaweek.(对于Si

lvertonRoadDomino的员工来说，唯一可以肯定的是，他们每周会在晚上11点到午夜的某个时候看到Alexander的名字出现在他们的在线订购网站上好几次)”和第七段中的“Around1a.m.onSunday,May8.Fullersentlongtimedelivery(快递)d

日星期日凌晨1点左右，Fuller派了长期送货司机TraceyHamblen到亚历山大的家中停留。Hamblen像以前无数次一样，走近亚历山大的门，敲门)”可知，Alexander经常点外卖，而TraceyHamblen是常常给他送东西的派送员，从画线句推断出为二人十分相熟。

故选B项。139．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了细心周到的外卖店经理通过观察到常客KirkAlexander打破了每天订餐的习惯，派人上门了解情况，发现Kirk患病在家，及时报警，从而救了Kirk性命的经过，本文属于生活故事，应该出现在

报纸的“生活”栏目。故选A项。140．推理判断题。由第四段“ItwasaslowSaturdaynightonMay7thwhenDomino’sgeneralmanagerSarahFullerfeltshecouldnolongerignor

eAlexander’srecentabsence.(5月7日是一个缓慢的周六晚上，Domino的总经理SarahFuller觉得她再也不能忽视Alexander最近的缺席了)”可知，外卖店经理通过细心观察，察觉到了顾客Kirk点餐习惯

发生的变化，最后救了Kirk的命，告诉了我们“细节决定成败”的道理。故选B项。OnMonday,theCentersforDiseaseControlandPreventionpredictedthat42%ofAmerican

eight?【答案】141．B142．C143．C144．D【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论现在的飞机座位对于较胖的乘客是否足够安全。141．细节理解题。根据第一段“OnMonday,theCentersforDiseaseControlandPreventionpredicted

that42%ofAmericanscouldbeoverweightby2030.Ourexpandingwaistlinesleadtonotonlyamedicalproblem,butaccordingtoarecentarticle

InTheNewYorkTimes,itcouldalsoaffectpersonalsafetyinsomesituations-inanairplanecrash,forexample.(周一，美国疾病控制和预防中心

预测，到2030年，42%的美国人可能会过于肥胖。我们不断扩大的腰围不仅会导致医疗问题，而且根据《纽约时报》最近的一篇文章：在某些情况下，它还会影响人身安全——例如坠机。)”可知，在飞机上，乘客过胖会影响自身安全和引发飞机事故。故推知《纽

约时报》最近的一篇文章担心飞机上过胖的乘客的安全。故选B。142．推理判断题。根据Negronireports部分““Ifaheavierpersoncompletelyfillsseat,theseatisnotlikelytobehave

asintendedduringacrash.”saidRobertSalazar,theleadingscientistattheCenterforAppliedBiomechanicsattheUniversityofVirginia

.“Theenergyabsorptionthatisbuiltintotheaircraftseatislikelytobeoverpoweredandthepassengerswillnotbeprotectedproperly

.”(弗吉尼亚大学应用生物力学中心的首席科学家RobertSalazar说：“如果一个较重的人完全填满座位，那么座椅在碰撞过程中不太可能按预期表现。内置在飞机座椅上的能量吸收系统可能会难以承受，乘客将无法得到适当的保护。)”可知，乘

客过胖，飞机座位难以承受过胖的乘客，无法保护他们。故推知RobertSalazar赞成应提高飞机座椅的强度标准，以承载过重的乘客。故选C。143．细节理解题。根据第四段““Norwouldtheinjurybelimitedtothatpa

ssengeronly,”Dr.Salzarsaid.“Ifaseatoraseatbeltfails,”hesaid,“thosepeoplewhoareseatednearbycouldbeendangeredfrom‘theuncontrolledmovementsofthepasse

nger’.”(Salzar博士说：“伤害也不会仅限于那名乘客。如果座椅或安全带失效，坐在附近的乘客可能会受到‘不受自己控制的过胖乘客运动’的威胁。)”可知，那些坐在过胖乘客附近的人也可能受到影响。故选C。144．主旨大意题。根据第三段““Ifaheavierpersonc

ompletelyfillsseat,theseatisnotlikelytobehaveasintendedduringacrash.”saidRobertSalazar,theleadingscientistattheCenterforA

ppliedBiomechanicsattheUniversityofVirginia.“Theenergyabsorptionthatisbuiltintotheaircraftseatislikelytobeoverpoweredandthepassengerswillno

“Norwouldtheinjurybelimitedtothatpassengeronly,”Dr.Salzarsaid.“Ifaseatoraseatbeltfails,”hesaid,“thosepeoplewhoareseatednearbyc

ouldbeendangeredfrom‘theuncontrolledmovementsofthepassenger’.”(Salzar博士说：“伤害也不会仅限于那名乘客。如果座椅或安全带失效，坐在附近的乘客可能会受

到‘不受自己控制的过胖乘客运动’的威胁。)”可知，飞机的座位不适合过胖的人，无法保护过胖的乘客并影响邻座乘客。故推知文章主要讨论飞机座位对超重者来说是否合适与安全。故推知文章标题是AreAirplaneSeatsSafeEnoughfor

arttomorecommunicationoptions:textingwithphotos,videos,emojis,reactiongifs,linksandevenvoicemessagescanbeamoreattracti

veoption.(这种转变很大程度上是由于更多的沟通选择:用照片发短信,视频，表情包，反应动图，链接，甚至语音信息可以是一个更有吸引力的选择)”可知，传统电话失去吸引力的原因是沟通的选择更多了。故选A。146．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Fernandez说的话“Thesh

aredfamilyphoneservedasananchor(精神支柱)forhome,(共享的家庭电话充当家庭的精神支柱)”以及“Withsmartphones,wehavegainedmobilityandprivacy.Butthevalue

ofthehomehasbeendiminished,ashasitsabilitytoguideandmonitorfamilybehaviorandperhapsconnectfamiliesmoreclosely(有了智能手机，我们获得了流动性和隐私。但是

家庭的价值已经被减弱了，它的指导和监督家庭行为的能力，也许还有使家庭更加紧密地联系在一起的能力也已经被削弱了)”可知，从Fernandez的话中我们可以推断出移动手机的使用会影响家庭关系。故选C。147．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ofcourse

,astechnologyprogresses,livesalwayschangeforbetterorforworse.Withthelossoftelephoneculture,familieswillneedtofindotherwaystounite.(当然了，随着科技的进

步，生活总是要么变得更好，要么更糟。随着电话文化的丧失，家庭需要找到其他的方式来团结起来)”可知，作者对传统电话文化的消失的态度是“客观的”。故选B。148．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Telephonecultureisdisappearing.Whatbroughtustothismo

ment,andwhatareitseffects?(传统电话文化正在消失。是什么让我们走到了这一步，会产生什么影响？)”可知，本文主要介绍传统电话文化的衰落。故选C。IlostmyphonewhenIwasonholidayfourmonthsag

理解题。根据第一段中“Tomygreatsurprise,Ireadthewholebookonthattwo-hourreturnflight—andsomyloveforreadingbegan.(令我惊讶的是，我在两个小时的返程航班上读完

了整本书——从此我对阅读的热爱开始了)”可知，让作者感到惊讶的是他竟然读完了这本书。故选D。150．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Asakid,Ididn’thavemuchexperiencewhenitcametobooksorreading.SowhenIde

cidedtopickupabook,IthoughttheseweretheonesIshouldreadandIbelievedIwouldsurelyenjoythem.ThenIendedupthinkingofmyselfassomeonethatsimplydidn’tl

ikereading.(作为一个孩子，我在看书或阅读方面没有太多经验。所以，当我决定拿起一本书时，我本以为这是我应该读的书，我相信我一定会喜欢。然后我最终认为自己是一个根本不喜欢读书的人)”等内容可知，本段旨在解释作者过去不喜欢读书的原因

。故选C。151．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Sojustmakesure,youarereadingbooksthattouchonsubjectsyouareactuallypassionate(热爱)about—don’tbescaredtocreateyouruniqueboo

kshelf.(所以，要确保你读的是与你真正感兴趣的主题有关的书——不要害怕创建你独特的书架)”可知，作者建议人们读那些能引起兴趣的书。故选A。152．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“andsomyloveforreadingbegan(从此

我对阅读的热爱开始了)”及最后一段中“Sojustmakesure,youarereadingbooksthattouchonsubjectsyouareactuallypassionate(热爱)about(所以，要确保你读的是与

downahill,Ihitahugerock,flewthroughtheairandcrashedtotheground.(我父母第一次看我参加山地车比赛时，他们想让我停下来。当我从山上骑下来的时候，我撞上了一块巨大的岩石，飞到空中，摔在地上。)”可知，作者在山地车比赛中

摔了一跤。故选B。154．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Weendedupatmyaunt’shouse.Iwastotallytiredandeverymuscleinmybodyached.ButIdidn’tcare.Iknewthatthiswa

始，我满脑子想的都是我的下一趟旅行会带我去哪里。)”可推知，作者对去他姑姑家的旅行感觉疲惫但开心。故选D。155．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Atfirst,wecompetedagainsteachother.Later,wewentupagains

totherschools.Wecontinuedtotrainandcompeteallthroughhighschool.(起初，我们互相竞争。后来，我们与其他学校对抗。我们在整个高中阶段继续训练和比赛。)”以及最后一段中“Then,thetrainingandc

ompetitionsinthebikeclubguaranteedthatIwouldturnintoalifelongbikefan.(然后，在自行车俱乐部的训练和比赛保证了我成为一个终身的自行车迷。)”可知，作者在他的自行车

说明文。主要讲述现在越来越多的人食物不耐症，并分析了原因。157．主旨大意题。根据第二段“Foodintolerancesarereactionstoeatingfoods,innormalquantities,whichdonoti

nvolvetheimmunesystem.Theyareverydifferentfromfoodallergies(过敏)whichhappenwhenthebodymountsanimmuneresponsetoafoodthatiseithereatenoreve

ntouchestheskin.(食物不耐症是对食物的不良反应，通常情况下，这与免疫系统无关。他们不同于食物过敏。食物过敏是当吃掉或者皮肤接触到某种食物时身体对食物产生的免疫反应)”以及接下来的描述可知，第二段主要

讲述食物不耐症与食物过敏的不同。故选D。158．细节理解题。根据第三段“A2009reportsuggestsabout20%ofthepopulationhasoneormorefoodintolerances,withnocha

ngesince1994.(2009年的一份报告表示大约20%的人们有一种或者多种食物不耐症，这个数字从1994年以来都没有变化)”可知，从1994年到2009年有食物不耐症的人的数量保持不变。故选C。159．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段

“Wealsohaveanincreasedabilitytoself-diagnose,thankstoDrGoogle.(因为谷歌博士，我们自我诊断的能力增加了)”可知，网络让我们了解了更多这方面的知识，从而判断自己是不是有食物不耐症；所以选项A.People’swideuseoft

heinternet.(人们广泛使用网络)正确；根据“Today,whenattendingsocialeventswithfood,wecanprovideourdietaryrequirements.Thisalsocontributestonormalisingfoodintoleran

ces,comparedtoevenadecadeago.Previouslypeoplewouldhavesufferedinsilenceorsimplyavoidedconsumingtheirproblematicfoodsatevents.(如今，当我们参加社交聚会的时候，我们

会提供我们的饮食要求。与十年前比，这有助于使食物不耐症常态化。以前人们参加集会时默默忍受或者直接避开食用对他们有问题的食物)”可知，以前人们参加聚会时会默默忍受或者直接避开食用对他们有问题的食物，不是现在的人参加聚会多了，也不是

人们辨别不出来有问题的食物，所以选项B.Peopleattendingsocialeventsmoreoften.(人们更频繁地参加社交活动)以及选项D.People’sfailuretorecogniseproblematicfoods.(人们不能辨认出有问题的食物)都

不正确；根据“Anotherfactorcouldbemoreandmorepeopleofdifferentnationslivinginonearea,someofwhomaregeneticallymorelikelytohaveafoodintolerance.(另外一

个原因是越来越多的不同国家的人生活在同一个地区，他们中的一些人在基因上更有可能患有食物耐受不佳)”可知，不同国家的人生活在一起就出现了一些基因上患有食物耐受不佳的人，所以选项C.Peoplesufferingfromvariousgeneproblems.(人们遭受各种各样的

基因问题)不正确。故选A。160．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ifyoususpectyouhaveafoodintolerance,you’dbetterseeadoctortoensureyouarenotignoringapote

ntiallyconcerningmedicalproblem.Also,thiscanmakesureyouarenotneedlesslymissingoutonessentialnutrientsrequiredforgoodhealth.(如果你怀疑自己有食物不耐症，你最好去咨询

下医生以确保你没有忽视一个潜在的医疗问题。同样，这也可以确保你不会毫无必要地错过身体健康所必需的营养素)”可知，这是作者给出的建议。故选B。EveryyearonJune21st,WorldMusicDayiscommemoratedinover120countries,in

明文。文章主要介绍了世界音乐日的情况，包括举行时间、起源以及特色等。161．细节理解题。根据第一段中“EveryyearonJune21st,WorldMusicDayiscommemoratedinover120countries

,includingitsbirthplaceofFrance,tohonorbothamateurandprofessionalmusicians.(每年的6月21日，包括其诞生地法国在内的120多个国家都会纪念世界音乐日，向业余和职业音乐家致敬)”可知，世界音乐日始于法国

。故选A。162．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Freeconcertsarealsoheld,wheremusiciansperformforthejoyofitratherthanforafee.(免费音乐会也会举

行，在那里音乐家们表演是为了快乐，而不是为了收费)”可知，有些音乐会免费是为了娱乐。故选B。163．细节理解题。根据第二段中“It’stheidealtimetolearnanewinstrumentorlistentosongstheywouldn’tordinarily

includeontheirplaylist.(这是学习一种新乐器或听他们通常不会出现在播放列表中的歌曲的理想时间)”可知，世界音乐日，可以让你听一些不在播放列表中的歌曲。故选D。164．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Musicisnotonlyagrea

twaytoexpressyourself,butitmayalsobebeneficialtoyourhealth.Asongmightbringbackajoyfulmemoryormakeyoufeelenergizedwhenyoulistentoit.(音乐不仅是一种很好的表达

自己的方式，而且可能对你的健康有益。一首歌可能会勾起快乐的回忆，或者让你在听的时候感到精力充沛)”可推知，作者对音乐是积极态度。故选C。Iwasinmyearly30s,seekingacreativeoutletunrelatedtoboringhouseworkand

orbothofus,paintingwas“it”andwemetatalocalpaintingclass.(当时我30岁出头，正在寻找一个与无聊的家务和抚养小孩无关的创造性出口。65岁的乔治刚刚退休，正在寻找一种有价

值的爱好来度过他的黄金岁月。对我们俩来说，绘画就是“它”，我们在当地的一个绘画课上认识)”可知，it指代上文“创造性出口”，即“创作的渴望”。故选A。166．推理判断题。根据第三段的“Hewasmistakenab

outhispaintingabilitybecausehehadturnedoutsomeuniqueandwonderfulworks.(他的绘画能力被误解了，因为他曾经创作了一些独特而精彩的作品)”推知，乔治曾经创作了一些很好

的画作。故选A。167．细节理解题。根据第三段的“Oneday,herangandtoldmethathewasgivinguppaintingandgivingawayallhis“stuff”.“Ican’tpaint,Bev.

不再画画了，再说多少话也劝不了他。这就是为什么乔治把他所有的绘画设备都留给了我)”可知，George打电话是为了把他的绘画工具赠送给作者。故选B。168．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了作者在绘画班认识了退休来学画画的Geor

ge，他们成为了忘年交。George把自己一整套心爱的绘画工具送给作者，如今每当作者作画都会想起George。再结合最后一段的“Themosttreasureditemistheredtoolbox,stillingoodshape.Theoriginalshops

免这些危险，才能享受它们提供的巨大潜在好处。169．细节理解题。根据第二段“ThereasonstobefearfulofAIandroboticsarewell-founded.AIcancompetewithourbrainsandrobotscancompetewith

新兴技术就会变得越好，而我们自己的能力预计会或多或少保持不变。)”可知人们害怕人工智能和机器人是因为人类的能力没有发展，故选B。170．推理判断题。根据第三段“Therehasbeenalove-haterelationshipbetweenindividualsandbigcompanieslo

ngbeforethepresenteraofbigtech,butwhenbigtech,AIandrobotsworktogether,itgetsevenscarier.(早在现在的大型科技时代到来之前，个人和大公司之间就

存在着爱恨交加的关系，但当大型科技、人工智能和机器人一起工作时，这种关系就变得更加可怕了。)”可推断，人与大公司之间的关系并不总是和谐的。故选B。171．细节理解题。根据第五段“Theseissuesar

eforeseeable,andthestakes(风险)areenormous.So,whatcanbedone?InordertoachievethehighestpossiblepublictrustinthebenefitsofAIandrobo

ticsinourlives,therearethreeimperativesforaction.(这些问题都是可以预见的，利害关系是巨大的。那么，我们能做些什么呢?为了让公众尽可能信任人工智能和机器人在我们生活中的好处，有三

rtechnologyofferings-somethingwehaven’tseenbeforeinthedevelopmentoftheinternetandmobilemarkets.(首先，该行业的人工智能和机器人领导者必须开始将消费者对安全和隐私的兴趣融入到他们的技术

产品中——这是我们在互联网和移动市场的发展中从未见过的。)”可知可信的人工智能和机器人要考虑到消费者对安全和隐私的兴趣。故选A。172．主旨大意题。根据整篇文章尤其最后一段“ThecombinationofAI,robotsandbigtechcompani

esispotentiallydangerous,butbytakingtheappropriatestepsnowwecanavoidthesedangersandenjoythehugepotentialbenefitsthattheyhavetooffer.(人工智能、机器人和大型科技公

司的结合是潜在的危险，但通过现在采取适当的步骤，我们可以避免这些危险，并享受它们提供的巨大潜在好处。)”可知文章主要讲述人工智能、机器人和大型科技公司的结合是潜在的危险，我们应该采取措施避免这些危险，才能享受它们提供的巨大潜在好处。C选

项“我们能避免人工智能、机器人和大型科技公司的潜在危险吗?”符合文章主旨，适合做标题，故选C。Thebroaddefinitionofmigration,“permanentchangeofresidence”,usuall

lemamongmigrants【答案】173．B174．B175．C176．A【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了影响人们移民的因素。173．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Whenthereisachoicebetweense

veralattractivepotentialdestinations,thedecidingfactormightbeanon-economicconsiderationsuchasthepresenceofre

latives,friends,oratleastfellowcountrymenalreadyestablishedinthenewplacewhoarewillingtohelpthenewcomerssettlei

n.Considerationsofthissortleadtothedevelopmentofmigrationflow.(当在几个有吸引力的潜在目的地之间进行选择时，决定因素可能是一个非经济的考虑因素，如是否有亲戚、朋友，或至少是已经在新地方定居的

、愿意帮助新移民定居的同胞的存在)”可知，如果Thomas正在考虑移居到一个新的地方，但他面临着几个目的地的选择，影响他的决定性因素是他所认识的人的存在。故选B。174．推理判断题。根据文章第五段中“Thesamepu

sh-pullfactorsandobstaclesoperatedifferentlyondifferentpeople,sometimesbecausetheyareatdifferentstagesoftheirlives

,orjustbecauseoftheirvaryingabilitiesandpersonalities.(同样的推拉因素和障碍在不同的人身上起着不同的作用，有时是因为他们处于人生的不同阶段，或者只是因为他们的能力和

性格不同)”可知，处在不同的人生阶段会影响人们对移民做出不同的决定，接着下文“Theprospectofpackingupeverythingandmovingtoanewandperhapsverystrangeenvironmentmaya

ppearinterestingandchallengingtoanunmarriedyoungmanandratherdifficulttoaslightlyoldermanwithawifeandsmal

lkids.(收拾好所有的东西，搬到一个新的，也许是非常陌生的环境中，对一个未婚的年轻人来说可能是有趣和具有挑战性的，而对一个有妻子和孩子的略年长的男人来说则是相当困难的)”指出，收拾行李去一个陌生的地

方对于未婚的年轻人来说可能是有趣和富有挑战的，但对于已经有家室的年长男子来说是相当困难的，作者将两者进行比较正是为了说明上文提到的“处于不同人生阶段”这一因素对移民决定的影响。故选B。175．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Th

enewestarrivalsareusuallygiventhelowest-paidjobsandareresentedbynativepeoplewhomayhavetocompetewiththemfo

rthosejobs.Ithasusuallytakenseveraldecadesforeachgrouptobeacceptedintothemainstreamofsocietyinthehostcountry.(新来的移民通常得到的是最低工资的工作，而且

会遭到当地人的憎恨，因为当地人可能不得不与他们竞争这些工作。通常需要几十年的时间，每个群体才能被东道国的社会主流所接受)”可知，新的移民要经历各种各样的问题，且总是要忍受巨大的困难才能适应新环境。故选C。176．推理

判断题。根据第二段首句“Studentsofhumanmigrationspeakof‘push’and‘pull’factors,whichinfluenceanindividual’sdecisiontomovefromoneplacetoanother.(研究

人类迁移的学生谈到‘推’和‘拉’因素，它们影响个人从一个地方迁移到另一个地方的决)”和第四段首句“Besidespushandpullfactors,therearewhatthesociologistscall‘intervening(干预)obstacles’.(除了推和拉的因素，

还有社会学家所说的‘干预障碍’)”以及第五段首句“Thedecisiontomoveisalsoinfluencedby‘personalfactors’ofthepotentialmigrant.(迁移的决定还受到潜在移徙者的‘个人因素’的影响)”可知，文章主

要分析了促进移民的因素有哪些。故选A。InJune2015,AliceGrace,ayoungentrepreneur,foundedherbusinessAilieCandy.Bythetimeshewas15,hercompanywasworthmillionsofdollarswi

dssatisfied.【答案】177．D178．B179．A180．C【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了年轻人AliceGrace创业的故事。2015年6月，年轻的企业家AliceGrace创立了自己的公司AliceCandy。到她15岁的时

候，她的公司已经价值数百万美元，因为她发明了一种超级甜食，可以保护孩子的牙齿，而不是破坏它们，这是有益的。177．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“ButGracewasboredwithmissingcandies.Sosheintendedtoignorethewarni

ng,“Whycan’tImakeahealthycandythat’sgoodformyteethsothatmyparentscan’tsaynotoit?”Withthatinmind,Graceaskedherdadifshecouldstar

therowncandycompany.(但Grace已经厌倦了糖果的缺失。所以她打算无视这个警告，“为什么我不能做一种对我的牙齿有好处的健康糖果，这样我的父母就不会拒绝它了?”带着这样的想法，Grace问她爸爸她是否可以开一家自己的糖果公司。)”可知，对于父亲的告诫Gra

ce并没有听从，而是有了一个打算自己制作一种健康糖果的想法。故选D项。178．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Asaresult,shesucceededinmakingakindofcandy—CanCandy,onlyusingnaturalsweeteners

,whichcanreduceoralbacteria.Thatisthespecialpartofit.(结果，她成功地制作了一种糖果——CanCandy，只使用了可以减少口腔细菌的天然甜味剂。这是它的特别之处。)”可知，Gra

ce公司生产的糖果的特别之处在于它使用的是可以减少口腔细菌的天然甜味剂，这对口腔健康是有好处的。故选B项。179．细节理解题。根据文章道速第二段“Graceisenthusiasticaboutthecandyshecreated,andshe’salsopositivea

boutwhatthefuturemightbring.Sheexpectsthateverykidcanhaveacleanmouthandabroadsmile.(Grace对她创造的糖果充满热情，她对未来可能带来的东西也很乐观。她希望每个孩子都能有一张干净的嘴和

灿烂的笑容。)”可知，Grace希望她的公司在未来能让更多的人脸上出现开心的笑容和一张干净的嘴巴。故选A项。180．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Althoughshefoundedhercompanyearlyoninlife,shewa

sn’tdrivenprimarilybyprofit.Gracewantstouseheruniquetalenttohelpothersfindtheirsmiles.Shedonates15%ofAliceCandy’sprofi

tstoBigSmiles.(尽管她很早就创立了自己的公司，但她的主要驱动力并不是利润。格蕾丝想用她独特的天赋帮助别人找回微笑。她把艾莉糖果15%的利润捐给了BigSmiles。)”以及文章其他段落所讲的Alice创业的经历可知，在遇到困难时她并没有退缩和屈服，

而是积极地寻找解决问题的办法，而创业成功以后她也没有一味地追求利润，而是积极地去回馈社会，从而进一步促成了自己的成功。所以从AliceGrace的故事中我们可以知道积极和有益的行动可以促成一个人的成功。故选C项。Atleastsincetheappea

D184．A【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在这个网络时代，我们接触着各种新的歌曲，却仍然偏爱着老歌的原因，以及乐评家给我们的建议。181．推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Musicbloggers,theiPod’smassives

toragecapabilities,andmostrecently,thevirtuallyunlimitedbrowsingpotentialaffordedbystreaming—puttogether,theywouldsurelypavethewayforage

nerationtowhomeclecticismwasnormal.(音乐博主、iPod巨大的存储能力，以及最近流媒体提供的几乎无限的浏览潜力——合在一起，肯定会为一代人铺平道路，对于这代人来说，折衷主义是正常的)”和第三句“Humancuriosi

tycouldfinallywin,andthesuper-listenerwouldrise.(人类的好奇心终于可以赢了，超级倾听者就会站起来)”可知，在这个充满无限信息的网络时代，人们的好奇心可以得到满足，听各种各样的新的不同风格和类型的歌曲。故选C项。

182．推理判断题。根据第二段第三句“SuccessfulonlineplaylistmakerssuchasPandoracontinuallyfine-tunealgorithmstofigureoutwhatin

dividualuserswanttohearbasedonwhatthey’velikedbefore.(Pandora等成功的在线播放列表制作者不断调整算法，根据个人用户之前喜欢的音乐找出他们想听的音乐)”可知，算法经常升级，以满足音乐爱好

者对新音乐的需求。故选D项。183．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Thekindoflisteningthathappenedmoreoftenwhenswitchingfromanunfamiliarsongbacktoanoldfavoritewasn’tso

frictionless—whentheunfamiliarsonghadcostyou$16.99andatriptoTowerRecordstoacquire,andtheoldCDwasgath

owerRecords的旅行，而这张旧CD在你床下的某个地方积满了灰尘)”可推知，新唱片切换到旧唱片没那么容易。由此可知，frictionless与easy意思接近。故选D项。184．推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Heremindsus,asheproce

eds,ofhowurgentlyweneedadventurouscriticslikehimatatimewhentheideaofmusicaldiscoveryhasbeenappropriatedbytechcompaniesandsidelinesinthechaseforclick

s.(他在继续讲述的过程中提醒我们，在这个音乐发现的理念被科技公司和旁观者在追逐点击率的过程中所利用的时代，我们是多么迫切地需要像他这样敢于冒险的评论家)”可知，乐评人能够帮助正确的听音乐的人，减少利用点击率的科技公司对他们的影响。故选A项。ColumbusCollege,241Que

备忘录，详细介绍了其中的四种体育项目，以供员工在接打家长咨询电话时参考。185．推理判断题。根据Date:May20,2010下“Aweekago,“SportsforLife”programmewassenttotheparents,re

quiringthemtoselectasporttheywantedtheirchildtoplay.”（一周前，“SportsforLife”的项目被发送给父母，要求他们选择一项他们希望孩子参加的运动。）可知，这个项目

中，每个学生都可以获准参加一项运动。故选B。186．细节理解题。根据Sport1:Basketball下“Weexpectthatthiswillbethemostpopularofthefoursports.Therefore,st

udentsshouldbeadvisedtosignupassoonaspossible.”（我们预计这将是四项运动中最受欢迎的一项，因此，应该建议学生尽快报名）可知，篮球会是最热门的一项，所以选择篮球的学生最好早点报名。故选A。

是让公众意识到儿童移民的问题，并促进对话，从而在美国进行人道主义的移民政策改革)”可知，这部电影的目的是让观众意识到儿童移民的现象。故选C项。189．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Duringthemakin

gofthedocumentary,thefilmcrewlosestrackofOlgaandFreddy,andweneverfindoutwhatbecomesofthem.(在纪录片的制作过程中，摄制组失去了奥尔加和弗雷迪的踪迹，我们从未知道他们的下落)”可知，在

纪录片摄制期间，他们与奥尔加和弗雷迪失去了联系。故选D项。190．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Kevinhasastrongsenseofdutytohisfamily.(Kevin对他的家庭有强烈的责任感)”可知“Kevin对家庭负责人；根据第三段“JuanCarlosf

eelsresponsibleforprovidingforhismotherandhisotherfamilymembersanddecideshemustdosomethingtohelpsuppor

“StudentmembersoftheSEBholdanetworkingmixereachyearinordertomeeteachotherandtobecomeacquaintedwithavarietyofeducationalprogramsandfacultyadvisor

s.（SEB的学生成员每年举办网络聚会是为了学生成员能够见到对方，并熟悉各种教育项目和大学老师。）”可知，每年举办网络聚会的目的是学生成员能够见到彼此，熟悉各种教育项目和大学指导老师。由此可推断出helpthestudentstobefamili

arwitheducationalprograms（帮助学生熟悉教育项目）是每年举办网络聚会的目的之一。故选D项。192．细节理解题。根据文章内容可知Workshop1:StudentNetwork的举办时间是Wednesdayevening,Feb.5th（2月5

日，星期三晚上）；Workshop2:BotanicalFilmMaking的举办时间是Wednesdayevening,Feb.5th（2月5日，星期三晚上）；Workshop3:CollectionsforB

otany的举办时间是Fridayevening,Feb.7th（2月7日，星期五晚上）。由此可推断出2月5日有两场研讨会，2月7日有一场，故参与者在2月5日比2月7日多了一个选择。故选B项。193．细节理解题。根据文章Workshop1:StudentNetwork部分“Facultym

emberswhoarepartoftrainingprogramsareencouragedtojointhemixertomeetandtalkwithstudents.（鼓励参加培训项目的全体教职工

参加网络聚会，与学生见面，和学生讨论。）”可知，邀请全体教职工参加聚会，与学生见面讨论，而并非邀请他们讨论管理问题。故选A项。EverydayKitchenColumnistKathrynElliottonoverlookedhealthhits,ice-colddairyand

一篇说明文。文章揭示了被忽视的健康饮品、冰牛奶和香油的秘密。194．细节理解题。根据3healthyfoodsyou’reprobablynoteating部分中“3.Turmeric:Abrightlycoloredspicefoundincurrypowderandmanyothersp

icemixes,turmericisaconcentratedsourceofantioxidants,onparwithstrawberriesandcherries.(3.姜黄：在咖喱粉和许多其他

香料混合物中发现的一种颜色鲜艳的香料，姜黄是抗氧化剂的浓缩来源，与草莓和樱桃的含量相当)”可知，如果有人需要一碗咖喱味的鸡肉汤面，他应该选择姜黄。故选C。195．细节理解题。根据CanyoufreezeMILK?部分中“Milkwillexpandwhenfrozen,becauseofi

tswatercontent,soallowsomespaceforthisexpansioninthecontaineryou’reusing.(牛奶在冷冻时会膨胀，因为它含有水分，所以在你使用的容器中要留出一定的膨胀

空间)”可知，大容器更可取，因为它给冷冻牛奶膨胀的空间。故选C。196．推理判断题。根据Howtousesesameoil部分中“Sesameoilhasagorgeousflavorandahighersmokingpointthanoliveoil,mak

ingitexcellentforstir-fries.Butyoucanalsotakefulladvantageoftheflavorbyaddingitattheendofthecooking.(香油味道鲜美，

烟点比橄榄油高，非常适合炒菜。但你也可以在烹饪结束时加入它来充分利用它的味道)”可知，香油适合炒菜，也可在烹饪结束时用来调味，所以它的适应性强。故选A。Wanttoexplorenewcultures,meetnew

easeacommunity’saccesstosafedrinkingwater,orhelptoprotectvaluablelocalcultures.Youmightalsodesignanadventurechallengetotrainyoungvol

unteers.(根据你选择的角色，你可以帮助增加一个社区获得安全饮用水的机会，或者帮助保护有价值的当地文化。你也可以设计一个冒险挑战来训练年轻的志愿者。)”可知，志愿者经理的主要职责是执行项目计划。故选C。198．细节理解题。根据表格中4-weekprogrammes中的最后一个“

SouthAfrica:2Aug—29Aug(南非：8月2日——8月29日)”可知，从8月开始的项目将在南非进行，故选D。199．细节理解题。根据第二段“you’llcreatepositivechangesinpoorandremotecommunities(你将为贫穷和偏远的社区带

来积极的改变)”和表格下面一段中的“Allofourprojectsareaimedatpromotingthedevelopmentofpoorandremotecommunities.(我们所有的项目都旨在促进贫困和偏远社区

的发展。)”可知，GDA项目的共同目标就是促进偏远贫穷区域的发展，即帮助有需要的社区。故选B。200．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第三段的“Weworkwithvolunteersofallagesandbackgrounds.Mostofourvolunteersareaged

17-24.Nowweneedvolunteermanagersaged25-75.Theyareextremelyimportantinthesafeandeffectiverunningofourprograms.

Wehavesuchrolesasprojectmanagersandcommunicationofficers.(我们与不同年龄和背景的志愿者一起工作。我们的志愿者大多在17-24岁之间。现在我们需要25-75岁的志愿

者经理。他们对我们项目的安全和有效运行极为重要。我们有项目经理和沟通官员这样的角色。)”可知，本文是招募一些志愿者管理者的广告，因此可能在报纸的社会工作版上能发现这篇文章，故选B。TheAdviceGapAdviceMyParentsGaveMe:Gotoc

据文章内容可知，作者从多个方面展开比较，比较自己的父母和自己在一些理念上的不同，也就是建议的不同；再根据标题“TheAdviceGap(建议差距)”可知，作者写这篇文章主要是为了阐述在提供建议这方面，作者和父母之间的代

沟。故选D。202．细节理解题。根据文章三、四两段“MyParents:Nevershowuptoapartyempty-handed.Me:Nevershowuptoaparty.Sendatexttothehosttwentyminutesbe

forethepartystartstosaythatyou’re“sooooooosorry”tocancelbutyourstomachisfeeling“weird.”(我的父母：永远不要空手去参加

聚会。我：从不出席派对。在聚会开始前20分钟给主人发一条短信，告诉他你“非常非常抱歉”要取消聚会，但你的胃感觉“不舒服”。)”可知，这里的胃不舒服，只是作者不想参加聚会而编造的理由，不是真的胃不舒服。故选C。203．推理判断题。根据文章第十一、十二段“M

yParents:Workhardsoyoucansaveforretirement.Me:Retirementissomethingyou’llreadaboutinyourhistorybooksunderthetile“AbstractIdeas.

”(我的父母：努力工作，这样你就可以为退休存钱了。我：退休是你会在历史书的“抽象概念”栏下读到的事情。)”可知，作者认为退休以后不会存在，所以为退休存钱这样的说法以后也只能在历史书中才能看到。故选A。Sinceteen

a.【答案】204．C205．A206．D207．B【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我们高中时期的友谊可能产生的影响和应该如何看等待高中时期的友谊。204．推理判断题。根据第二段“Growingupwithmoviessuchas“HighSchoolMusical”and“Gr

ease”,whichportrayedtheidealhighschoolfriendships,wesometimeshavetheexpectationofhavingaperfectrelationship,stayinginc

ontactaftergraduation,possiblyevengraduatingfromcollegetogetherandbecominglifelongfriends.(电影《歌舞青春》和《油脂》描绘了理想的高中友谊，在它们的陪伴

下成长起来的我们，有时会期待拥有一段完美的友谊：在毕业后保持联系，甚至可能一起从大学毕业，成为一生的朋友)”可推知，作者在第二段提到《歌舞青春》和《油脂》主要是为了说明青少年观众受电影影响，期待完美的校园友谊。故选C项。205．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Al

thoughmostadultsseehighschooldramaassilly,teenagerscanbeinthe“thisistheendoftheworld”mindsetwhenitcomestominorinconvenien

以理解的。然而，大多数青少年需要一点时间来权衡和思考这个问题是否有长期的影响)”可推知，如果16岁的高中生莉莉在处理关于友谊的闹剧方面遇到困难，作者会建议她问自己：五年后，这还会重要吗？故选A项。206．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在部分

“Astimegoeson,thefiendsyouwereincontactwithafterhighschoolslowlydwindle.Peopleembarkondifferentpathwaysandgodifferentdirections.(随

着时间的推移，你在高中毕业后接触的朋友会慢慢dwindle。人们走上不同的道路，走向不同的方向)”中“Astimegoeson”和“Peopleembarkondifferentpathwaysandgodiff

erentdirections.”可推知，因为毕业后走上了不同的道路和方向，高中的朋友会渐行渐远，越来越少，dwindle即“decreaseinsize,amountvalue,ordegree(大小、数量、价值或程度的减少)”。故选D项。207．推理判断题。根据最后一段中

“Highschoolisasmallpercentageofyourlife,butithasahugeimpactonwhoyouwillbecomeandwhereyouwillgo.(高中生活只占你生活的一小部分，但它对你将来成为什么样的人、你要去哪里有着

巨大的影响)”可推知，高中友谊可能会塑造一个人的个性和他未来的道路。故选B项。Weusuallythinkofarchaeologyasinvolvingbraveexplorersandlotsofpainstakingdigging.Buttoday,l

探索揭示了埋藏已久的玛雅城市)”可知，一架飞机、软件和GPS可能是使用激光雷达时必要的辅助。故选C。209．词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“BuiltbythePurpecha,Angamucowasamajorcivilizationintheearly16thcentury,b

eforeEuropeansarrived.(由普尔佩查人建造的安加穆科是16世纪早期欧洲人到来之前的主要文明)”以及第三段中“ThePurpecha’smainbuildingswerelooselysitedineightzonesar

oundtheedgesratherthanbeinglocatedinonelargecenter.(普尔佩查人的主要建筑松散地分布在周边的八个区域，而不是位于一个大的中心)”可知，激光雷达发现了位于墨西哥西部的一座名为安加穆科的庞大古城，而安加穆科是由普尔佩查人修建的

，普尔佩查人修建的建筑松散地分布在周边的八个区域，故这座古城是以不规整的方式扩展的。故sprawl表示这座古城是以不规整的方式扩展的。故选B。210．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Thatmakesitthebiggestcityin

westernMexicoatthetime-oratleastthebiggestcityweknowaboutsofar.(这使它成为当时墨西哥西部最大的城市，或者至少是我们目前所知道的最大的城市)”可知，C项“安加穆科可能是当时墨西哥西部最大的城市”

正确。故选C。211．推理判断题。根据第四段““TothinkthatthismassivecityexistedintheheartlandofMexicoforallthistimeandnobodyknewitwasthereisamazing,”s

aysChrisFisher,anarchaeologistwholedtheexpedition.(带领探险队的考古学家克里斯·费舍尔说：“想想这个巨大的城市一直存在于墨西哥的中心地带，却没有人知道它的存在，这真是令人

惊讶。”)”可推知，如果没有激光雷达，就不可能知道安加穆科城是什么样子。故选C。About50yearsago,thefamousBritishbandTheBeatlessangthat“moneycan’tbuymelove”.Today,Brit

2．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“ThisisshowedbytheHappyPlanetIndex(HPI快乐指数)publishedrecentlybytheNewEconomicsFoundat

ion(NEF)inLondon.(伦敦新经济基金会（NEF）最近发布的全球幸福指数（HPI）说明了这一点。)”等内容可知，本文主要是围绕着最近发布的全球幸福指数所说明的问题展开论述的。故选D项。213．

细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Clearly,people’sHPIisrelatedtotheirconsumptionoftheresourcesontheearth.(显然，人类的HPI与他们对地球资源的消耗有关。)”可知，根据这篇文章，能源消耗效率在幸福指数中起着重要作用。故选B项。214

．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Itwouldseemtobecommonsensethatpeopleinrichercountrieslivehappierlives,whilethoseindevelopingcountr

iesarehavingahardertime.Buttheresultsaresurprising,evenshocking.Thenumbersshowthatsomeoftheso-calleddevelopedcountriesareperformingverybadly.(富裕国家的

人生活得更幸福，而发展中国家的人生活得更艰难，这似乎是常识。但结果令人惊讶，甚至震惊。数字表明，一些所谓的发达国家表现得非常糟糕。)”可知，指数中列出的最幸福国家与预期相差很大。故选A项。215．推理判断题。根据第

六段中“TheindexpointsoutthatpeopleintheUSandGermanyenjoysimilarlives.(该指数指出，美国人和德国人享受着相似的生活。)”和第七段中“However,Germany’secologica

lfootprintisonlyabouthalfthatoftheUS.ThismeansthatGermanyisaroundtwiceasefficientastheUSatproducinghappylives.(然而，德国的生态足迹只有美国的一半左右。这意味着德

国在创造幸福生活方面的效率大约是美国的两倍。)”可知，作者以德国为例说明用更少的资源也能过上幸福的生活。故选B项。Manyfactorscaninterferewithagoodnight’ssleep—fromworkstressandfam

轻人的电脑失而复得的故事。219．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Thenextmorning,hediscoveredthatthecar’swindowhadbeensmashed,alongwithhisdreamsfo

rthefuture:Hisbackpackandcomputerweregone.(第二天早上，他发现车窗被打碎了，他对未来的梦想也被打碎了：他的背包和电脑都不见了)”、第三段中“Butheneededacomputersoheboughtit,tookithome,andturn

editon.(但是他需要一台电脑，所以他买了它，带回家，并打开了它。)”和“Withinseconds,hesawfilesandphotographs.(几秒钟之内，他就看到了文件和照片)”以及第四段中“Almazroueifoundwhatappearedtobetheown

er’scellphonenumberandcalledit.(Almazrouei找到了似乎是主人的手机号码，并拨打了它)”可知，首先，电脑被盗，然后被Almazrouei买到，然后发现文件和照片，最后打电话给失主。故选B项。220．词句猜测题。根据划线

词句前文“Almazroueifoundwhatappearedtobetheowner’scellphonenumberandcalledit.(Almazrouei找到了似乎是主人的手机号码，并拨打了它)”及后文“Soonafter,apoliceofficercal

ledFortunetosaythatamanhaddroppedthecomputeroffandhadsaidhewassorry.(没过多久，一名警察打电话给Fortune，说有个男人放他那里一台电脑，并说他很抱歉)”可知，Almazrouei先打电话给Fortune，但没交还电脑，而后，他

把电脑交给了警察，说明Fortune起初认为这是个骗局。结合划线词句“Fortunedidn’ttrustthisguywithathickaccentandthoughtitwasascam.(Fortune不

相信这个口音很重的家伙，认为这是个scam)”可知，划线词汇应为“骗局”的意思。故选A项。221．词句猜测题。根据划线句子后文“ForFortune,itwasalessoninculturalawarenessamidthesometi

mesbitternationaldebateaboutimmigrants,especiallyfromtheArabworld.(对于Fortune来说，在关于移民，特别是来自阿拉伯世界的移民，有时是激烈的民族主义的辩论中，这是一个文化意识的教训)”和倒数第二段中“Almazrouei

’slessonwasperhapsmorecomplex.(Almazrouei得到的经验教训可能更加复杂)”可知，划线句子意思是“两个年轻人都以自己的方式得到了一些经验教训。”故选D项。222．推理判断题。

根据倒数第三段中“ForFortune,itwasalessoninculturalawarenessamidthesometimesbitternationaldebateaboutimmigrants,especiallyfromtheArabworld.(对于Fortune来说，

在关于移民，特别是来自阿拉伯世界的移民，有时是激烈的民族主义的辩论中，这是一个文化意识的教训)”以及Fortune所说的“I’mfromasmallmainlywhitetown.(我来自一个以白人为主的小镇)”及“I’venever

metaMuslim.He’sagoodman.(我从没见过穆斯林。他是个好人)”可以推知，Fortune过去歧视穆斯林。故选D项。Manyyearsago,mydadwasfacingaserious

utthepaintbrushinhismouthandbegantopaint.Hedidn’tusehishandsatall.(他开始在她的房间里探望她，带上颜料、画笔和纸。他把纸立起来，把画笔放进嘴里，开始画画。他根本不用手)”可知，父亲是想告诉她，没有手，也可以做很多

事情。故选A项。225．细节理解题。结合第四段中“Sometimelateraftermydadhadrecoveredandreturnedtowork,incamethelittlegirlwhohadbeenp

aralyzed,onlythistimeshewaswalking(过了一段时间，在我父亲康复并返回工作岗位后，一个瘫痪的小女孩进来了，只是这次她在走路)”可知，小女孩恢复了，可以走路了，故选B项。226．主旨大意题。结合全文并

易。233．词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“Learningasecondlanguageistrickyatanyage(anditonlygetstougherthelongeryouwaittoopenthatdustyFrenchbook)(学习第二语言在任何年龄都是棘手

的(你打开那本满是灰尘的法语书的时间越长，它只会变得越困难))”可知，此处承接等的时间越长，学习与研究会变的越难这一话题，说明随着年龄的增长，语言学习能力开始下降，此处说的是科学家们已经确定了你读第二语言流利程度下降的确切年龄：10岁，由此可知画线词词义为“下降”

，A项：dive(突然大幅贬值，暴跌；下降)正确。故A项正确。234．推理判断题。根据第二段中的““It’sjustthatyourunoutoftime,becauseyourabilitytole

arnstartsdroppingataround17or18yearsold,”saysstudyco-authorJoshuaHartshorne,anassistantprofessorofpsychologyatBostonColl

ege(只是你的时间不多了，因为你的学习能力在十七八岁左右开始下降，该研究的合著者、波士顿学院心理学助理教授约书亚·哈茨霍恩说)”可知，人一旦到了十七八岁成年的时候就过了学习第二语言的关键时期，故D项正确。235．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Children’

sbrainsaremoreplasticthanthoseofadults,they’rebetterabletoadaptandrespondtonewinformation.(儿童的大脑比成人的大脑更具可塑性，他们能够更好地适应和应对新的

信息)”可知，成年人花更多的时间对新信息做出反应，这可能使他们学习第二语言不能达到母语的流利程度，故B项正确。236．主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第三段中的“Kidsmaybebetterthanad

ultsatlearningnewlanguagesformanyreasons.(孩子在学习新语言方面可能比成年人做得更好，原因有很多)”可知，本文主要介绍了为什么孩子比成年人学第二语言更容易，故C项正确。Onespringday,oncetheflowers

yyear,intea,ontoast,andbeyond.(美国人平均每年消耗将近一磅半的“蜜”，包括喝茶、吃吐司等等)”可知，me指的是“蜂蜜”。故选D。238．推理判断题。根据第二段“Today,li

采集4000多花。综合分析，整段都在讲蜜蜂的努力。故选B。239．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Thensheandher50,000orsomateswillhoverinthedarkallnighteverynight,flapping

成为最终的蜂蜡，要经过几个日出之后。B选项:Before“me”issealedoffinbeeswax,thedryingprocesstakesafewnights.(蜜的干燥过程可能需要几个晚上)正确。故选B。240．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Theproblemliesintheg

的花朵数量。如果你能让自己的花园长得野一点，我会很感激。我的未来取决于我们所有人培育春天和夏天的野花，从而帮助蜜蜂，它们为你我付出了那么多，却从不要求任何回报。)”可推知，这篇文章的目的是呼吁帮助蜜蜂。故选A。Education:Peki

解题。根据文章第一段“PekingUniversitywillbethefirstChineseuniversitytoopenanoverseabranchinOxfordnextyear.(明年，北京大学将成为首所在牛津开设海外

thefestivalscomefromreligiousbeliefs,suchasChristmas.(有些节日来自宗教信仰，比如圣诞节。)”和“amongChristiansbuthasnowbecomeapublicholidayforeveryonearoundthe

world(在基督徒中，但现在已成为全世界每个人的公共节日)”可知，划线词所在句子表示“它在基督徒中产生”，划线词originated的意思是“产生”，和cameintobeing意思相近，故选C。248．细节理解题。根据第四段的“Wealsocelebrate

festivalsbecausetheyarereasonstobereconnectedwithfamilyandlong-lostfriends.Manypeopledonothavethefreedomtomeetfamiliesandclosefriendsat

anytime.Festivalsandholidaysgiveusthechance.(我们庆祝节日也因为这是与家人和失散已久的朋友重新联系的理由。许多人没有自由在任何时候与家人和亲密的朋友见面。节日和节假日给了我们机会。)”可知，节日把家人和朋友联系

在一起是因为人们有了见彼此的机会，故选A。249．推理判断题。根据第五段的“Inaworldwhereget-togethersandbarbecuesdonothappenasmuchastheyusedto

】这是一篇说明文。一项研究表明，被圈养的海豚似乎喜欢与人类一起玩耍，但是这并不意味着海豚被圈养比在野外更快乐，实际上被圈养对海豚有害，会使海豚失去在野外生存的技能，无法再重返野外。250．细节理解题。根据第七段中“Overthecourseofthreeyears,Cleggandhertea

mputtogetheraseriesofexperimentstofigureouthowcaptivedolphinsfeltabouttheirlives.(在三年的时间里，Clegg和她的团队进行了一系列实验，以弄清被圈养的海豚对自己生活的感受)”可知，该研究是研究圈养海

豚的感受。故选D项。251．细节理解题。根据倒数第六段“Itwasfoundthatofthethreetypesofexperiment,thedolphinsseemedtoenjoyplayingwith

humansthemost.(研究发现，在这三种类型的实验中，海豚似乎最喜欢和人类一起玩)”可知，该研究发现，当海豚和人类一起玩耍时最快乐。故选B项。252．推理判断题。根据倒数第二中“Bybeingbornintocaptivity,theywillneverlearntheskillsn

ecessarytosurviveinthewild.(由于出生在圈养环境中，它们永远不会学到在野外生存所需的技能)”可知，出生就被圈养的海豚可能无法在野外生存。故选A项。Doyoustillrememberthesceneinthefamousmov

是二十年后人们仍在纠结Jack是否真的非死不可这个问题，甚至有人专门进行了试验并把结果提交给电影导演Cameron。对此，Cameron的看法是Jack非死不可，并给出了理由。253．细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“Butitdoesshowthatthefilmwasef

fectiveinmakingJacksoattractivetotheaudiencethatithurtsthemtoseehimdie.(但这确实表明，这部电影有效地让Jack对观众如此有吸引力

，以至于看到他死去，观众都会很伤心)”可知根据Cameron的说法，Jack对观众很有吸引力，以至于看到他死去，观众都会很伤心，说明观众喜欢Jack，所以不能接受Jack的死。故选C项。254．推理判断题。由最后一段中的“SinceJackwasdoo

那只是他死的一个实用方法。Cameron说：“不管是这样，还是烟囱砸在他身上，他都要死。”)”可知根据Cameron的说法，Jack不管怎么样都必须死，只是死的方式不同，说明Jack的死是不可避免的。故选B项。255．主旨大意题。第一段讲“20年后，人们仍然在问这样一个问题：难道门上没有足够的空

间容纳他们两个人，Jack必须要死吗？”第二段讲“科学娱乐电视节目“Mythbusters”的几个人做了实验，发现如果Rose把救生衣脱到门的底部，就会有足够的浮力让他们两人都浮起来，说明Jack没必要死”，第三四段讲“Ca

meron认为Jack非死不可并给出了理由”，可知文章主要讲电影《泰坦尼克号》中的Jack非死不可，A项“Jack不得不死”符合文意，最适合作文章标题。故选A项。Anewstudyof8,000youngpeopleintheJou

。256．主旨大意题。根据文章主要内容，尤其第一段的“Puppylove(早恋)maybringstressforyoungpeopleandcanleadtodepression(忧郁症).Thestudyshowsthatgirl

sbecomemoredepressedthanboys,andyoungergirlsaretheworstsofall.(早恋)可能会给年轻人带来压力并导致抑郁。研究表明，女孩比男孩更抑郁，年轻女孩是最糟糕的)”可知，本文主要内容是：早恋可能会给年轻人带来

压力，并导致抑郁。文章分析了其中的原因，并给父母提出了一些建议。故选A项。257．细节理解题。根据第二段的“Accordingtothestudy,eventhoughboyswouldsay“losethemse

lvesinaromanticrelationship”,this“lossofself”ismuchmorelikelytoleadtodepressionwhenithappenstogirls.Younggirlswhohaveromanticrelationshipsu

suallylikehidingtheirfeelingsandopinions.Theywont’stellthattotheirparents.(根据这项研究，即使男孩会说“在恋爱中迷失自我”，但这种“迷失自我”发生在女孩身上时，更有可能导致抑

郁。有恋爱关系的年轻女孩通常喜欢隐藏自己的情感和观点。他们不会把这件事告诉他们的父母)”可知，恋爱中的年轻女孩通常喜欢隐藏自己的情感和观点，这更可能导致她们抑郁，也就是说，总是隐藏自己的情感和观点的女孩更可能患抑郁。故选C项。258．推理判断题。根据最后一段的“

Thegoodnewsisthattheconnectionbetweenromanceanddepressionseemstobecomeweakwithage.(好消息是，恋爱和抑郁之间的联系似乎会随着年龄的增长而减弱)”可知，随着年龄的增

长，恋爱的女孩患抑郁的可能会减小，也就是说，随着年龄增长，她们在恋爱中“迷失自我的”可能性也会降低。故选D项。Whycan’twestoplongingforthegoodolddaysPeopleinman

。259．词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“individualismwastearingthefamilyapart(个人主义会使家庭破裂)”可知，说明当时的个人主义不受控制，导致家庭破裂，令科学家担心。故画线词意思是“不受控制的”。故选C。260．细节理解题。根据

第四段中“AU.S.Pollfoundthatpeopleborninthe1930sand1940sthoughtthe1950swasAmerica’sbestdecade,whilethoseborninthe1960sand1970spreferred

the1980s.(美国一项民意调查发现，30后和40后认为50年代是美国最好的十年，而60后和70后更喜欢80年代)”可知，出生在30年代和40年代的美国人认为20世纪50年代是最好的十年。故选B。

261．细节理解题。根据倒数第四段中“Researchershavefoundthatweencodemorememoriesduringadolescenceandearlyadulthoodthananyotherperiodofourlives,andwhenwethinkabout

thepast,thisistheperiodwemostoftenreturnto.Moreover,aswegrowmoredistantfrompastevents,wetendtorememberthemmo

repositively.(研究人员发现，我们在青春期和成年早期编码的记忆比我们生命中的其他任何时期都要多，当我们回想过去时，这是我们最常回想的时期。此外，随着我们对过去的事件越来越疏远，我们往往会更积极地记住它们)”可知，过去的好日子通常是人们年轻的时候，因为人们对青春期和成年早期有更好的记

忆以及随着时间的推移，人们对年轻时发生的事情的记忆会更加积极。故选C。262．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Andnotallfearsaboutthefutureareunbounded.Newtechnologiesdores

ultinaccidents,theydisturbtraditionalculturesandhabits,andtheydestroyoldjobswhilecreatingnewones.Buttheonlywaytobeamhowt

omakethebestuseofnewtechnologiesandreducerisksisbytrialanderror.Thefuturewon'tbeperfect,butneitherwe

的方法就是尝试和犯错。未来不会完美，过去的美好时光也不会完美)”可推知，简单地反对任何新发明和新技术是不明智的。故选B。Peoplealwaysregretaskingmeandmywifehowwegottogether.It

讲述了人们见面的奇怪方式。263．细节理解题。由第一段中的“Itturnsoutthey’dbotharrangedtomeetdifferentpeople,butlikedthelookofeachother,andthatwasthat!”（结果

他们两人都安排好了去见不同的人，但却喜欢对方的相貌，就这样！）可知，Lynn和Andy一开始都安排好了去见其他人。故选B项。264．细节理解题。由第二段中的“LukasmetSofiaforthefirsttimewhenhecrashedintohercar

—onhisbicycle.”（卢卡斯第一次见到索菲是在他骑自行车撞上她的车时）可知，Lukas和Sofia是因为一次撞车事故认识了彼此。故选C项。265．词句猜测题。由第三段的“Hewasleavingtheofficelateonenigh

twhenhegotrobbedbyagroupofyoungmen.Hewasn'thurt,buttheystolehisphoneandwallet,sohecalledthepolice.SusanHa

hesaidyes!NickandSusangotmarriedlastDecember.”（一天晚上他要离开办公室，突然被一群年轻人抢劫了。他没有受伤，但他们偷走了他的电话和钱包，于是他报警了。当时年轻的警官苏珊·哈里斯接听了电话。尼克解释说，

我不知道是不是因为刚发生的事情而震惊了，但我认为这是一见钟情。我通常不会这么自信，但我只是问她是否想去喝一杯，令我吃惊的是，她说好的！尼克和苏珊去年12月结婚了）可知，尼克被抢劫，这是不幸的事，但因此认识了警官苏珊且最后二人结婚了，这是好事，

说明不幸中会有好事发生。由此可知，Everycouldhasasilverlining在此处意为“好运伴随着不幸而来”。故选B项。266．主旨大意题。第一段讲Lynn和Andy一开始以为见的是其他人，实际上见了彼此，第二段讲Luk

as和Sofia是因为一次撞车事故认识了彼此，第三段讲因为一次抢劫，Nick认识了警官Susan，第四段讲因为狗狗，Ri认识了Ben，可知本文讲的是人们奇奇怪怪的见面方式，即美好的关系是如何从偶然的相遇中成长起来的。故选C项。TinytrashfactoriesNot

对其的看法。267．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Theapproachwillalsoallowcitiestorecyclewasteintonewproductsonlocation.(该方法还将允许城市就地回收垃圾，制成新产品)”可知，垃圾微型工厂的特点是可以在垃圾倾倒的地方进行回收。

故选C。268．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Now,herlabgroupisworkingwithuniversityandindustrypartnerstocommercializetheirpatent

edMicrofactorictechnology.(现在，她的实验室小组正在与大学和工业界的合作伙伴合作，将他们的专利微工厂技术商业化)”可知，科学家们目前在试图从微型工厂技术中获利。故选C。269

．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Forexample,themicrofactoriescanbreakdownoldsmartphonedandcomputermonitorsandextractsilicaandcarbon,andthencombinethemintosilicon

carbidenanowires.Thisgeneratesacommonceramicmaterialwithmanyindustrialuses.(例如，微型工厂可以分解旧的智能电话和电脑显示器，提取二氧化硅和碳，然后将它们组合成硅汽车电池纳米线。这

就产生了一种具有许多工业用途的普通陶瓷材料)”可推知，Sahajwalla将这个过程称为“第四个R”，在“减少、再利用、回收”的基础上再加上“再形成”。reform“重整，改革”最符合。故选B。270．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In2019,just17.

4percentofe-wastewasrecycled,sothenewabilityoffersacrucialnewdevelopmentinthechallengerecyclingcomplexelectronicdevices.(2019年，只有17.4%的电子

垃圾被回收，因此这项新能力为回收复杂电子设备的挑战提供了一个至关重要的新进展)”以及“Traditionalrecyclinghasnotworkedforeveryrecyclingchallenge.(传统的回收并不是对每一个回收挑战都有效

)”可知，A选项“传统回收实际上只对垃圾回收的一小部分有用”正确。故选A。FrustratedwithdelaysinSacramento,BayAreaofficialssaidThursdaytheyplannedtotakemattersintotheirownhandstoregula

于萨克了门托办事拖沓到令人恼火，他们周四计划亲自动手管理当地日益增长的电子垃圾的问题)”可知，关于电子垃圾的处理，湾区官员计划自己制定相关的地方法，故选B。272．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“ASanJosecouncilwomanandaSanF

果加州立法机构未能就议会搁置的两项法案采取行动，他们将提出在那些想要控制电子废物的地方倡议。越来越多的加州市和县表达了同样的意愿，他们就是其中之一)”可知，这两项议会搁置的法案也是与加州大量电子垃圾的回收相关的，只是一直未采取实质性的行动

，因此女议员和监管人员将建议在那些想要控制电子废物的地方倡议回收电子垃圾，故选D。273．推理判断题。根据文章第七段“Buthigh-techgroups,includingtheSiliconValleyManufacturingGroupandtheAmericanElectroni

csAssociation,opposethemeasures,arguingthatfeesofupto$30willdriveconsumerstoonline,out-of-stateretail

ers.(但是高科技团队却反对此措施，认为上达30美元的费用会促使消费者选择网上或者其他州的零售商)”可知，如果每台电视或者电脑收取额外的30美元费用的话，消费者会选择到其他州去买，故选B。274．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Recycling

onanonlineforum.“Andsorryaboutthefocus,”hewrote,“itwasaselfie.”Thatwasthefirstrecordeduseoftheworld“selfie”.(2002年，一名澳大利亚男子参加了他朋友的21岁生日聚会。他

喝醉了，在台阶上绊了一跤，割伤了嘴唇。他拍下了自己受伤的照片，并在网上论坛上与朋友分享。“不好意思请注意，”他写道，“那是一张自拍。”这是世界上第一个有记录的“自拍”的用法)”可知，selfie是因为一个醉酒男子在网上分享了他的照片

偶然创建的。故选B。276．细节理解题。根据最后一段“InSlatemagazine,RachelSimmonshastheoppositeview.Shearguesthatselfiesareanexampleofyoungwomenpromotingthemselvesandtakingco

ntroloftheirownself-presentation.(RachelSimmons在《石板》杂志上发表了相反的观点。她认为，自拍是年轻女性提升自我、掌控自我表现的一个例子)”可知，RachelSimmons对女性生活中的自拍持积极态度，故选D。277．主旨

大意题。通读全文，根据第一段“WordoftheYearfor2013,inhonourofthetermthathadtakenovertheworldthankstomillionsofsmartphoneself-portraitsu

ndtheresultingsharesonsocialmedia.(2013年度词汇，是为了纪念这个因社交媒体上数百万智能手机自拍被分享而风靡全球的词汇)”可知，文章主要介绍了“selfie”这个词的由来，以及它所表示的文化现象，故选A。Ther

unishment.【答案】278．D279．B280．C281．D【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了死刑的判决有时候并不是一个好的，合适的惩罚方式。278．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Ifcapitalpunishmentisallowed,

therealwaysexiststhepossibilitythataninnocentpersonwillbeexecutedbymistake.Whenthathappens,anevenwors

ecrimehasbeencommitted—thekillingofaninnocentpersonbythegovernment.Thenthereisthefactthatthepoorandminoritiesgett

rderingthemurdererisaviolentactinitself;itisrevenge.”（如果允许极刑，无辜者被错误处决的可能性总是存在的。当这种情况发生时，就犯下了更严重的罪行——用政府杀死了一个无辜的人。还有

一个事实是，穷人和少数族裔比白人更经常被判死刑。此外，死刑阻止罪犯杀人的想法是值得怀疑的；研究一直无法证明，对死刑的恐惧比其他惩罚更能阻止一个人谋杀。我们不要忘记，谋杀凶手本身就是一种暴力行为；这是报复

。）可知，根据文章，ABC选项的内容都是死刑的结果，除了死刑可能会激起报复的欲望。故选D项。279．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Italsocoststhetaxpayermillionsofdollarsmoretoexecuteacriminalthantoimprison

thatcriminalforlife.”（而且，处决一名罪犯比将其终身监禁要多花费纳税人数百万美元）可知，无期徒刑比死刑更昂贵说法是错误的。故选B项。280．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Peoplecanchange,evenpeople

whohavemadeterriblemistakes.Lifeinprisongivespeoplethechancetochange.CarylChessmanisanexampleofsomeonewhobecame

abetterpersoninprison.”（人是会改变的，即使是犯了严重错误的人。监狱生活给了人们改变的机会。CarylChessman就是一个在监狱里变得更好的例子。）可知，作者用CarylChessman的例子来证明，死刑剥夺了人们改变的机

会。故选C项。281．主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Therearetimeswhenmurderisnotcommittedbecauseofcruelty.Peoplemaykillforotherreasonssuchasanger,misunderstanding,andfea

r.Everyonehasmademistakesbecauseofsuchfeeling.Forsociety,itisaseriousmistaketotakethelifeofsomeonewhohaskilledbecauseitteac

heseveryonethatforgivenessisunnecessary.”（有些时候，杀人不是因为残忍。人们可能会因为其他原因杀人，比如愤怒、误解和恐惧。每个人都因为这种感觉而犯过错误。对社会来说，夺走一个杀人的人的生命是一个严重的错误，因为它教会每个人宽恕是没有

必要的。）可知，文章主要讲的是死刑的判决有时候并不是一个更好的，合适的惩罚方式。故选D项。AsagroupofyoungAfricanimmigrantsstruggletoadapttolifeintheUnitedStates,anafter-schooldramapro

5．D【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个名为“X计划”的项目，旨在帮助年轻的非洲移民克服困难。介绍了这个项目的一些情况和人们对此的看法。282．细节理解题。根据第二段中“ProjectXisaprogramthatusesdrama,dance,poetryandot

hercreativeoutletstohelpstudentsdiscussthetoughandsometimespainfulproblemstheyfaceaspreteenimmigrantswithsignificantlanguagebarriers.(“X计划”是

一个利用戏剧、舞蹈、诗歌和其他创造性途径来帮助学生讨论他们作为语言障碍严重的青春期前移民所面临的困难，有时甚至是痛苦的问题的项目)”可知，X项目旨在帮助年轻的非洲移民克服困难。故选B。283．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Afinalunveilingoftheircreationwillbepe

rformedforfriendsandfamilyattheendoftheyearatImaginationStage.(他们的作品将于年底在“想象舞台”上向亲朋好友展示)”可知，成员在X计划中的学习如何将通过他们的年度创造性表演来表现。故选A

。284．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“WhenTV,media,ete.arebringingthemdown,thisprogramisbringingthemup.(当电视、媒体对他们产生不良影响时，这个项目将拯救他们)”可知，D选项“电视和媒体可能对孩子们有不良影响”正确。故选D。28

议论文。文章介绍了作者在阅读中进行的批判性阅读以及其他的想法。286．细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Imarkthegoodpassagestostoretheminmymemorypieceofwriting;where,howandwhycouldorsh

ouldIimproveuponit?(我标记好段落，把它们储存在我的记忆里。在哪些地方，如何以及为什么我可以或者应该改进它?)”可知，作者在进行创造性阅读的时候，会在阅读的内容上根据自己思考的内容做标注。故选

B。287．细节理解题。根据第二段第1、2句“Anotherwordforcriticismisappreciation.WhenIcriticizeorappreciatesomeobjectoranother,Ilookforitsgoodpointsandbadpoi

nts.(批评的另一个词是欣赏。当我批评或欣赏某一事物时，我会寻找它的优点和缺点)”可知，作者认为批评和欣赏是同义词，故选D。288．词义猜测题。根据下文“askinghimquestions,seei

ngwhetherheanswersthequestionsandhowwellheanswersthem.(问他问题，看他是否回答了这些问题，以及回答得如何)”可知，作者在阅读的时候会问书作者一些问题，并且在书中找到回答，说明作者在阅读的时候

致命疾病比过去传播得更远。故选A。291．推理判断题。根据第二段“TheU.S.usedtohaveanationalpublichealthemergencyfund,firstcreatedinthe1980s,butit

sbalancehassincedecreasedto$57,000—enoughtobuyafewthousandfirstaidkitsbutnotmuchelse.Whatweneedismoreontheorderofseveralhundredmillionto$1bill

只够买几千个急救包，其他的就不多了。我们需要的更多的是几亿到10亿美元的新资金，这些资金总是可以立即获得，而且一旦耗尽就会被补充)”可推知，美国国家公共卫生应急基金不能满足今天的需求。故选C。292．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Creatingasimilar“rainy

ogototheCongresscouldsavelivesandmoney,bothathomeandoverseas.(创建一个类似的“雨天”基金——并事先向疾病控制和预防中心提供使用它的许可，而不需要向国

会申请——可以在国内外拯救生命和金钱)”可推知，D选项“疾病预防控制中心可以自行决定应急资金的使用方式”的观点作者可能同意。故选D。293．主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Publichealthemergenciesareafactoflifeinawor

们知道这是不可避免的)”结合下文建议美国设置一些组织和机构来应对这些紧急情况。可知，这篇文章主要讲的是如何将疾病爆发的危险降到最低。故选D。Places,PeopleandPropertywithStrutt&ParkerFormorepropertie

看到了住房方面出现了一种新趋势，即人们希望搬回农村。本文介绍了斯特鲁特和帕克的四处房产信息。294．细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“Infact,aquarterofallregisteredbusinessesarebasedi

nrurallocations.(事实上，四分之一的注册企业都位于农村地区)”可知，位于农村地区的注册企业占“四分之一”，A项“Mostoftheregisteredbusinessesarebasedinruralareas.(大多数注册企业都位于农村

地区)”陈述错误。故选A项。295．细节理解题。根据本题题干“Mikeisplanningtoinvestinavillagecottageatarelativelylowpriceandlendittoparentswith

twochildren.(麦克打算以相对较低的价格投资一间乡村小屋，并借给有两个孩子的父母。)”可知，麦克要找价位相对便宜的，有三个房间的房子，并租出去。根据“No.1Guideprice₤795,000”，“No.2Guideprice₤36

5,000”，“No.3Guideprice₤775,000”，“No.4Guideprice₤190,000A”的价位比较，以及“No.2Guideprice₤365,000”的“Agenerousthree-bedroomfamilyhomeinbeautifulsu

rroundingswithimpressiveviewsoverthecountrysideandbeyond.(宽敞的三居室家庭住宅，环境优美，可以欣赏到令人印象深刻的乡村景色。)”可知，No.2价位相对较低，房间数量正好，麦克可以选No.2。故选B项。296．推理

判断题。根据标题下的图片和第一段“Formorepropertiesvisitourwebsitestruttandparker.com(更多房产请访问我们的网站struttandparker.com)”可知，此处用了动词visit而不是click“点击”，由此可知，这些信息极可能是来自于报

绍如何在网上创建一份愿望清单。297．细节理解题。根据“2.Shareyourwishlist”中“Publicwishlistsmeansthatyoucansendalinktoyourfriendsandfamilyandthe

ycanseewhatyou’vesaved!”（公众愿望清单意味着你可以向朋友和家人发送链接，他们可以看到你保存了什么！）可知A项（和朋友分享愿望清单）正确，再根据“Whenyoucreateanaccount,youcanchoosetomakepriva

teandpublicwishlists.（当你创建一个帐户时，您可以选择创建私有和公共的愿望清单）”可知C项（将愿望公开或保密）正确，最后根据“4.Create!”中的“There’snolimittohowmanywishlist

syoucanhave.（你可以有多少个愿望清单是没有限制的）”可知D项（创建多个愿望清单）正确，而文中并没有提到你可以与他人交换个人信息，通过排除法可知如果设法创建了一个帐户，您将能够拥有A、C、D项所述权限，除了B项。故选B项。298．细节理解题。根据“3.Buyyouritems!”
