。根据第一段的Buttheseyearsworkingasajunior,Iwaswillingtotaketherisk.可知,作者认为在船上工作是满意的,不后悔的。25.D.细节理解题。根据第二段Evenrememberingwhichuniformtoweareachdaywasacha
llenge.Mostconfusing,Ioftenforgottosetmyclockwhentheshipcrossedtimezones.可知,最难的就是跨时区时忘记调整时差,所以选D.26.C。细节理解题。根据第四段Afteraterrif
yingrideinanoldambulance,IwasrelievedthatthepatientsurvivedlongenoughtoarriveatthehospitalinPanamaCity.可知,病人得到及时救治
。27.A.推理判断题。根据最后一段Now,Iunderstandbeingashipdoctorisnotajob-it’sawayoflife.和Ilostmycareerambitions,butIredefinedhapp
inessinmylife.可知,作者认为在船上当医生只是一种生活方式,从此以后,便对幸福有了新的理解。28-31ABDC这是一篇说明文文。文章主要讲述了英国一项研究表明,与传统药物相比,市面上不断推出的新药大部分并不具有新的
疗效。作者分析其中原因并指出,因为相关机构的要求,加上新药耗时费钱,因此药品公司干脆转向研究罕见病的药品,而不是对已有的药品进行改良。28.A细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“theauthorslookedat216drugsapprovedbetween2011and2017;
152werenewlydeveloped,and64wereexistingmedicineapprovedfornewuses.Only25%offeredamajoradvantageovertheestablishedtreatment,and
fully58%hadnoconfirmedaddedbenefittoreducesymptomsorimprovehealth-relatedqualityoflife.”可知,英国《医学期刊》的一篇报道对2011到2017年上市的药品的
研究发现,其中58%的新药与已有的药物相比,没有任何得到证实的新增加的药效。故最近的报告传达了许多新药没有改进的优势的信息。结合选项,故选A。29.B细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Suchorgani
zations,knownashealthtechnologyassessment(HTA)agencies,workalittledifferentlyintheUS,saysSeanTunis,aresearcherinBaltimore:“Ifpayersthinkanewdrugisn't
betterthananexistingdrug,theseagencieswillrequire.thathospitalstrythecheaperdrugfirst.”可知,美国的卫生技术评估机构的功能与德国不同,如果付费方(病人)认为某种新药不比已有的药品更好,那么“他们(评估
机构)就会要求医院先试用便宜一些的药品",故选B。30.D推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中“Germany'sHTAdemandstrialstoprovethatanewtreatmentbeatstheexistingstanda
rd.Thisisn'talwayspracticalForonething,suchstudiescanbeexpensiveandtime-consuming,withnoguaranteeofsuccess.Secondly,itc
andiscouragecompaniesfromattemptingtodevelopnewalternatives.Thisisalreadyhappening.Drugdevelopersareincr
easinglyfocusedonareaswheretherearenogoodtreatmentstocompetewith,suchasrarediseases”(德国的HTA需要试验来证明新的治疗方法优于现有标准。这并不总是可行的一件事,这样的研究可能是昂贵和
耗时的,没有成功的保证。其次,它可以阻止公司尝试开发新的替代品。这已经发生了。药物开发人员越来越关注那些没有好的治疗方法可与之竞争的领域,例如罕见的疾病)可知,德国卫生技术评估机构要求有药物试验来证实改良后的新
药比原先的药品更好,这需要大量的金钱和时间。由此可以推断出,德国HTA的试验的缺点是不利于公司对已有药品进行提升。结合选项,故选D。31.C标题判断题。全文讲述药品研发的窘境:传统药物的更新未必有新的疗效
,即使有新疗效,相关机构的要求使这个更新过程漫长而且费用高,于是很多药企干脆转向研究罕见病的新药,这就使已有药品的更新面临窘境。故C项ADilemmawithNewDrugAlternatives“新药物的两难选择”作为标题,符合题意。故选C。32-35CAC
D本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了中国如何利用数字技术进行垃圾分类。32.C细节理解题。根据第二段的Thestrictprogrambecameaheadacheforsomeresidents.Noteventhemostenvironmental
lyconsciouspersoncangetalltheanswersright.可知,对一些居民来说,严格的垃圾分类计划变得令人头痛。即使是最环保的人也不能得到正确的答案。由此可知,一些居民对垃圾分类是很困惑的。故选C。33.A细节理解题。根据第四段的Ifp
eoplearetoobusyorlazytohitthecollectionschedule,well,startupsareofferingtrashserviceatthedoorstep.可知,如果人们太忙或太懒而
赶不上收集垃圾的时间,那么,创业公司正在门口提供垃圾服务就再好不过了。由此可知,上门收垃圾的好处就是时间灵活。故选A。34.C推理判断题。根据最后一段的SomeresidentialcomplexesinSha
nghaibeganusingQRcodestotracetheoriginofgarbage.Thisway,regulatorsintheregionknowexactlywhichfamilyh
asproducedthetrashandfineviolators.可知,上海的一些住宅区开始使用二维码来追踪垃圾的来源。这样,该地区的监管机构就能确切地知道哪个家庭生产了垃圾和对违规者进行罚款。由此推知,社区管

7.G根据空前Whenchildrencountontheirfingers,theytakeanabstractconcept—mathematics—andtranslateitintothemostbasicandv
isualform.可知,用手指数数能把抽象的数学概念变成最基本的视觉形式。因此推断,G项Infact,expertsbelievethebrainisableto“see”arepresentationofourfingers.(事实

、压力、疼痛或使用给定的手指作出反应时,它就会激活。下文内容接着讲大脑特定区域的具体工作程序,因此推断,A项Thereisasectionofthebrain,calledthesomatosensoryfingerarea.(大脑有一个区域,叫做躯体感觉指区)讲得是大脑的一个区域
,引出下文。下文it指代上文的thesomatosensoryfingerarea。故选A。39.E本段第一句Theconnectionbetweenfingeruseandmathabilityhasbeenprov
edonold-fashionedmathtestsaswell.可知,手指的使用和数学能力之间的联系在老式的数学测试中也得到了证明。此处在讲手指使用和数学能力之间的关系,根据空格上文Withtheireyesclosed,firstgra
derswereaskedtoidentifywhichoftheirfingersaresearcherwastouching.(当他们闭上眼睛时,一年级的学生被要求识别他们的手指中的哪一个是研究人员触摸的)可知
,此处讲述研究过程,因此推断,E项Researchersfoundthosescoringhighestonthefinger-IDquestionsscoredhigheronamathtest.(研究人员发现,在手指识别问题上得分最高的人在数学测
试中得分较高)说明了两者之间的关系,符合本段主题。故选E。40.B上文Foronething,parentsandteachersshouldn’tdiscouragechildrenfromcountingontheirfingers.可
知,首先,父母和老师不应该阻止孩子们用手指数数。B项Researchersalsostressthatstudentssimplylearnbetterusingvisualtools.(研究人员还强调,学生们只是通过视觉工具学习会更好)与上句并列,与下句的乘法表一致。故选B
