StewardshipYouthRangerProgram.D.SummerEmploymentOpportunities.【语篇解读】本文为应用文。本文叙述了省政府及其合作伙伴提供了许多项目来帮助学生暑期在找到工
作。21.B【解析】细节理解题。根据SummerCompany部分中的“SummerCompanyprovidesstudentswith...awardsofupto$3,000tostartandruntheirownsummerbusinesses”可知“Su
mmerCompany为学生提供高达3000美元的奖励,来开始和经营他们自己的暑期业务”。“startandruntheirownsummerbusinesses”即“为开办新的业务”,这对应B项中的“runnne
wbusinesses”,二者是词义之间的转述关系。故选B。22.D【解析】细节理解题。根据StewardshipYouthRangerProgram部分中的第二段“Whoiseligible:Studentsaged16or17attimeofhire,butnotturning18befo
reDecember31thisyear.”可知“符合条件的学生:16岁或17岁的学生,但在今年12月31日之前未满18岁”。由此得出,这个项目要求年龄在16-17岁之间。分析选项可知D项符合题意,故选D。23.D【解析】
细节理解题。根据SummerEmploymentOpportunities部分中的最后一段最后一句“Whoiseligible:...Somepositionsrequirestudentstobe15to24orupto29forpersonswi
thadisability”,可知SummerEmploymentOpportunities有些职位是给残疾人的。分析选项可知,D项符合题意,故选D。2.【2019·全国卷II,A】MyFavouri

rrorstory.【语篇解读】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了作家JoUsmar最喜欢的书籍。21.C【解析】细节理解题。由Matilda中的“Ioncewroteapaperontheinfluenceoffair
ytalesonRoaldDahl’swritinganditgavemeanewappreciationforhisstrangeanddelightfulwords”可知,我曾经写过一篇关于童话故事对罗尔德·达尔写作有影响
的论文,这篇论文让我对他奇怪而有趣的文字有了新的认识。所以JoUsmar在介绍Matilda这本书,用第一人称“I”口吻来说明自己曾经写过一篇关于童话故事对罗尔德·达尔写作有影响的论文。所以“I”指的是JoUsmar。故C选项正确。22.C【解析】细节理解题
。由AfterDark中的“It’sabouttwosister-Eri,amodelwhoeitherwon’torcan’tstopsleeping,andMari,ayoungstudent”可知,故事讲的是两个姐妹---Eri是一个突然一觉
不醒的模特。玛丽,是一个充满青春活力的上和古董店里寻找旧的军队勋章,然后将这些勋章归还它们的合法主人。文章主要叙述了他这一爱好的起源。21.A【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“ZacknowsthemeaningofaPurpleHeart—heearnedonehimself
inawarasasoldier”可知,当Zac还是一名士兵的时候,在一次战争中他获得了一枚PurpleHeart。故A选项正确。22.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Todriveeighthourstocometoseeme”可以推知,Adeline
为了那枚PurpleHeart开车八个小时来见Zac,由此可知,她对于这件事是认真地。因此,Atthatpoint,Iknewshemeantbusiness应该指的是Zac意识到Adeline对这枚勋章是认真的。故B选项正确。23.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中
的“Corrado,atranslator…waskilledinactioninEurope”和倒数第三段中的“asIgrewolder…andmissedmybrothermoreandmore,Ir
ealizedthatwastheonlythingwehadleft”这枚勋章寄托了Adeline对于去世的哥哥Corrado的回忆和思念,这是他们家留下的唯一关于哥哥的东西了。因此她很珍惜这枚勋章。故D选项正确。8.

的人,组织者希望通过这样的活动来提倡仁慈和同情。24.C【解析】词义猜测题。由第一段“ButatUnionStationinLosAngeleslastmonth,aboardwentupwithdollarbills
attachedtoitwithpinsandasignthatread,"GiveWhatYouCan,TakeWhatYouNeed.”可知,但是上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站,一块牌子上别针别满了美元,上面写着“给予你所能给与的
,拿走你所需要的”。所以通过下文的语境,判断出第1段中的moneywithnostringsattached是“无条件提供的钱”的意思。故B选项正确。25.B【解析】推理判断题。由第二段““Peopleofallages,races,andsocio-econom
ic(社会经济的)backgroundsgaveandtook,”saidTylerBridgesofTheToolbox,whichcreatedtheproject."Weevenhadabrideinherweddingdresscomeuptotheboar
dandtakeafewdollars.”可知,发起该项活动的泰勒·布里奇斯说:“所有年龄、种族和社会经济背景的人都会付出和索取。”甚至有一位穿着婚纱的新娘来到了牌子前,拿走了一些钱。所以通过泰勒·布里奇斯所说的,可以判断出,他提到新娘就是想说明这
项活动吸引了各种各样的人。故B选项正确。26.D【解析】细节理解题。由倒数第二段“Whiletheclipmightlooklikepartofanewadcampaign,Bridgessaidtheonlygoalwastoshowgenerosityandsympathy”可知
,尽管这段视频看起来像是一项新的广告活动的一部分,但是布里奇斯说这次活动唯一的目标是表现出慷慨和同情。所以布里奇斯实施这个活动是为了提倡仁慈和同情。故D选项正确。III.说明文1.【2019·全国卷I,C】Asdataandident

雄性的印度羚四种动物为例,进一步证明了黑白色不是那么简单。1.A【解析】细节理解题。由Skunk小标题下的内容可知,臭鼬身上白色的条纹是用来暗示敌人小心它喷出恶臭的液体。由Badger小标题下的内容可知,獾脸上的条纹可以帮助这些小动物远离天敌。故A选项正确。2.D【解析】细节理解题。由Gi
antPanda小标题下的“Thepandainwhitebodyhidesitagainstsnow,whiteitsdarklimbs(四肢)keepitfrombeingspottedinforests”可知,熊猫白色的身体帮它在雪地里隐藏起来,而深色的四肢帮它在森林里不被发现。A.sho
wfierceness展现凶猛;B.storefat储存脂肪;C.recognizeindividuals识别个体;D.takecover躲藏,隐蔽。故D选项正确。3.C主旨大意题。由文章第一段最后一句“Spendsometi
meexploringwhatsciencehasdiscoveredabouttheseanimals’appearances,andyouwillseethatbasicblackandwhiteisn'tsobasicafterall.”可知,作者想和大家一起分享科学
家们对这些动物外观的研究成果,让大家明白黑白色并不是那么简单的。也就是说让大家知道为什么那么多动物只是黑白色?故C选项正确。II.记叙文1.上海市长宁区2019届高三二模ThebusscreamedtoastopinNazareth,Is

。1.C【解析】推理判断题。根据前文“Myplanwastotravelwithafriendofafriend,Iexplained,butwhenIcalledherthatmorning,shedidn’tpickupandIhadnootherwaytoreachher
.”可知作者被朋友放鸽子了,被放鸽子肯定是失望的,C项(因为突然的变化而感到沮丧的)最符合作者此时的心情,所以选C。2.C【解析】推理判断题。根据““Whydon’tyoutravelwithus?”on
eofthebackpackersoffered”可知这些背包客邀请作者一起旅游,说明他们很热心;根据“Theywereexperiencedadventurerswhowouldworkforafewmonths,save,thentravelforaslongastheyco
uld”可知这些背包客旅游经验很丰富,所以是值得信任的,综合选C。3.A【解析】推理判断题。根据“Itseemedriskytotravelwithstrangers,butmyinstinctsaidyes.”可知这些背包客邀请作者一起旅游时,她的本能(instinct)也就是第六感说了“好
”,也就是说她的第六感让她相信她能和这些背包客相处的很好,才会答应他们的邀请,故选A。4.D【解析】推理判断题。根据“TheworldopeneduptomebecauseIchosetotravelalon
e.”可知作者觉得自己选择一个人旅游让自己看到了更大的世界,再结合最后一句“ThoughIwashappyshewasallright,Iwasgratefulshehadn’tpickedupthephone.”可知作者庆幸她的朋友没有接她的电话。由此可以判断作者认为自己选择一个人去旅行是
一个很好的决定,故选D。2.山东省潍坊市2019届高三高考模拟(5月三模)考试WhenRandyHeisswenthikingbehindhisPatagonia,Ariz.farm,thelastthingheexpectedtofindwasaChristmaslistfromal

他曾试图通过气球给圣诞老人寄圣诞信,但从未收到任何回复。可知他有和女孩相似的但不成功的经历,因此他决定帮助女孩实现愿望。故选C。4.B【解析】推理判断题。最后一段第一句Heiss,60,saidtheexperiencewasve

读】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了Marcia的母亲去世后,Poppy坚决拒绝女儿Marcia和女婿Jack的邀请,不和他们住在一起。他固执地不去挤他们的小房子,不想成为他们的负担。每次Poppy去看望女儿一家,都会给他们带礼物。所以,Marcia一直认为自己的父亲有足够的钱生活。一次意
外发生,当医生告诉Marcia,他的父亲根本没有钱的时候,Marcia很困惑,没有钱还给孩子们买礼物。于是,Marcia和父亲吵了一架。后来,在圣诞节时,Marcia邀请父亲来家里,并且告诉他,他是他们中的一员,他们都爱他。这次Poppy终于
空手来了,放下了他所谓的“骄傲”。1.D【解析】细节理解题。答案定位在第二段AfterMarcia’smotherdied,PoppyfirmlyrefusedMarciaandJack’sinvitationtocomeandlivewiththem.Hewasstubbornaboutnotc
rowdingtheirlittlehouse,aboutnotbecomingaburden.(Marcia的母亲去世后,Poppy坚决拒绝Marcia和Jack的邀请,不和他们住在一起。他固执地不去挤他们的小房子,不想成
为他们的负担。)由此可知,Poppy不和他女儿住在一起的原因是他不想成为她的负担,故选D。2.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段Infact,hewasalwayshelpful.Thekidslovedh
imbecausehelistenedtothemandbecausehealwaysbroughtthemsomething.HealsobroughtspecialgiftstoMarciaandJack,neverarrivingempty-hand
ed.(事实上,他总是乐于助人。孩子们爱他,因为他听他们说话,因为他总是给他们带来一些东西。他还给Marcia和Jack带来了特别的礼物,从来没有空手而来。)和第四段ThedoctorsaidthatPoppyhadbeenlivingoncoffeeanddoughnuts.Lat
erthatday,thepharmacisttoldMarcia,“Hehaspracticallynomoneyatall—justthegovernmentchequeandwhatlittle
hemakeshere.YetImyselfsawhimspendmostofhislastchequeonyourlittleboy’sbicycle.”(医生说Poppy一直靠咖啡和甜甜圈生活。那天晚些时候,药剂师告诉Marcia,“他实际上什么钱也没有——只有
一张政府支票和他在这里挣的一点点钱。可是我亲眼看见他把最后一张支票的大部分都花在你儿子的自行车上了。”)Marcia的父亲一直给他们买礼物,所以Marcia认为自己的父亲有足够的钱生活。当医生告诉Marci
a,他的父亲根本没有钱的时候,Marcia很困惑,故选B。3.B【解析】词义猜测题。下文“You’refoolish,Poppy,”shesaid.“Ihavemypride,”Poppyanswered.“Falsepride,”shehurled(斥责)backat
him.意思是“你真傻,Poppy”她说。“我有我的骄傲,”Poppy回答。“错误的骄傲,”她狠狠地回击他。由此可知ShebecamesternwithPoppy.意思是她对Poppy很生气。“stern”意思是生气的,A.patient有耐心的;B.
angry生气的;C.respectful尊敬的;D.afraid.害怕的,故选B。4.A【解析】推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段ShefeltworriedandcalledPoppy,tellinghimthathewasoneofthemandthattheyalllovedhim.(她很
担心,给Poppy打了电话,告诉他,他是他们中的一员,他们都爱他。)由此推断出,作者说Poppy的手最后被填满了是因为Poppy知道他被家人爱着,故选A。4.湖北省黄冈中学2019届高三第三次模拟考试英语ASouthKoreanmanan

,因为他的病,急需要血液,别人帮他输血救了他的生命,他决定一旦年满18岁,就开始尽可能定期献血。他一直捐献自己极其罕见的血液来救别人,60多年里,献血将近1200次,救了240万婴儿的生命。25.C【解析
】推理判断题。由第一段“hedecidedthatonceheturned18,hewouldbegindonatingbloodasregularlyashecould.”以及第二段“Morethan60years
andalmost1,200donationslater,Harrison,whosebloodcontainsanantibody(抗体)thathassavedthelivesof2.4millionba
biesfrommiscarriages”可知,他决定一旦年满18岁,就开始尽可能定期献血。60多年内,他献血将近1200次。他的血液中含有一种抗体,这种抗体挽救了240万婴儿的生命。所以哈里森兑现了他14岁许下的诺言,60多年内,他献血将近120
0次。挽救了240万婴儿的生命。故通过关键词“begindonatingbloodasregularly,60years,1,200donations,save”可以判断出,哈里森是个非常感恩的献血者。
故C选项正确。26.B【解析】推理判断题。由第四段“Hisdoctorssaiditwastimetostopthedonations—andtheycertainlydon’ttakethemlightl
y.Theyhadalreadyextendedtheagelimitforblooddonationsforhim,andthey’recuttinghimoffnowtoprotecthishealth.Hemadehisfinaldonatio
nsurroundedbysomeofthemothersandbabieswhohisbloodhelpedsave”可知,他的医生说,是时候停止捐赠了,他们当然不会轻易接受。他们已经延长了他献血的年龄限制,现在为了保护他的健康,他要
停止献血。他做了最后一次捐赠,他的血液挽救了一些母亲和婴儿的生命。所以通过医生所说的话,可以判断出,第四段的目的是描述哈里森的献血是如何结束的。故B选项正确。27.C【解析】推理判断题。由最后一段“ButHarrison’sretirementfrom
givingblooddoesn’tmeanhe’scompletelyoutofthegame.ScientistsarecollectingandcataloginghisDNAtocreatealibraryofantibodiesandwhitebloodcellsthatcould
bethefutureoftheanti-DprograminAustralia.”可知,但是,哈里森从献血退休并不意味着他完全退出了,科学家们正在收集和编目他的DNA,以建立一个抗体和白血球库,这可能是澳大利亚抗-D计划的未
来。所以尽管哈里森已经退休,但他并不是完全退出,因为围绕着他血液的研究会一直进行下去,所以哈里森会继续为Rh项目做出贡献。故C选项正确。28.D【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文可知,短文叙述了一位澳大利亚男子在
他14岁时,因为他的病,急需血液,别人帮他输血救了他的生命,他决定一旦年满18岁,就开始尽可能定期献血。他一直捐献自己极其罕见的血液来救别人,60多年里,献血将近1200次,救了超过二百万婴儿的故事。所以短文主要在叙述一位有
极其珍贵的手臂的人,是这样的手臂输出的血液,救了这么多的人。故短文的最佳标题为“一位有极其珍贵的手臂的人”。故D选项正确。8.晋冀鲁豫中原名校2019年高三第三次联考DutchdesignerDaanRoosegaardehasspentmuchofhistim

了一位荷兰设计师试图通过艺术形式有创意地解决太空垃圾问题。1.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段“Hispastprojectsinclude‘Bioluminescent(生物发光)Trees'tolightstreets,a‘SmogFreeTower'to
cleanBeijingspollutedair,and‘GatesofLight’,whichusestheheadlampsofpassingcarstolightupthefloodgatesoftheAfsluitdijk,amajordaminth
eNetherlands”可知,他过去的项目包括点亮街道的生物发光树,净化北京污染空气的雾霾净化塔以及荷兰一座大坝的防洪闸,由此可知,丹·罗斯加德在解决环境问题上很有创造力,故B项正确。2.C【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“TheuniqueoutdoorartworkofLETus
edreal-timetrackinginformationtopointatpiecesofspacejunkfloatingataltitudesof200to20,000kilometersTheexperiencewasdesignedtomakethepublick
nowmoreabouthowmuchspacejunkthereare”可知,举办这个激光秀的目的是提高公众对太空垃圾数量的认识,故C项正确。3.D【解析】词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“...ifsucce
ssful,burningspacetrashcouldsomedayreplacefireworksatlargepublicevents!”可知,丹·罗斯加德的设想,如果成功的话,焚烧太空垃圾有一天会取代大型活动中的烟火,由此可知画线词为“设想、想象”,故D项正确。4.
A【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段“Attheendofitstask,RemoveDEBRISwillletgoasailtobringthesatelliteitself,and,hopefullysometrash,backintotheatmosphere,wh
ereitwillburnup.”可知,在帆的作用是在任务结束时将卫星带入到大气层中自动焚毁,故A项正确。III.说明文1.河南省实验中学2019届高考全真模拟最后一卷Solarenergysystems&

义猜测题。根据画线词前的“However,somepoisonousmaterialsandchemicalsareusedtomakethephotovoltaic(光电池的)cellsthatconvertsunlightintoelectricity.”
可知,然而,一些有毒的材料和化学物质被用来制造将阳光转化为电能的光伏电池,一些太阳能保温系统使用潜在危险的液体来传递热量,由此可知画线词词义为“危险的”,故B项正确。2.C【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Theplacemen
tofthepowerplantmayhavelong-termeffectsonthehabitatsofnativeplantsandanimals.”可知,大型太阳能发电厂的选址可能会对当地动植物的栖息地产生长期的影响,也就是会破坏当
地自然平衡,故C项正确。3.D【解析】主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“However,onthesurfaceoftheearth,solarenergyisavariableandirregularenergysource.Theamountofsunlightandthe

释了暴风雨来临前的平静的原因,并指出并非所有的暴风雨都始于平静。1.D【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Inthistypeofthunderstorm,thereisusuallyonlyonemainstreamofcurrent,wh
ichiswarm,dampairanddrawnfromplacesneartheground.”可知,在这种类型的雷暴中,通常只有一股主要气流,那就是来自地面附近温暖潮湿的空气,由此可知,特殊的雷暴是指由地面移动的空气推动的风暴,故D项正确。2.A词义猜测题。根据
画线词前的“Therisingairmeetsthecolddryairthathasalreadyexistedinthestormclouds,thusthetemperatureofthewarm,dampairdrops”可知,上升的空气与
干冷空气相遇,因此温暖潮湿的空气的温度下降,其中的水蒸气变成微小的水滴,这是下雨的先决条件,由此可知画线词指的是前面提到的温暖潮湿的空气,故A项正确。3.B【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Mostthunderstorms,though,don'tstartwithcalm.”可知,然而
,大多数雷暴并非始于平静,由此可知,并非所有的暴风雨都始于平静,故B项正确。4.C【解析】主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Butwhatcausesthiscalm?Andisitalwayscalmbeforethestorm?”可知,本文主要解释了暴风雨来临前的平静的原因,故C项正确。【点睛】解
答代词指代类的词义猜测题的关键在于对画线词前的内容的理解,特别要注意出现的名词,例如本篇第2题,根据画线词前的“Therisingairmeetsthecolddryairthathasalreadyexistedinthestormclouds,thusthetemperatureof
thewarm,dampairdrops”可知,上升的空气与干冷空气相遇,因此温暖潮湿的空气的温度下降,温暖潮湿的空气中的水蒸气变成微小的水滴,这是下雨的先决条件,由此可知画线词指的是前面提到的“thewarm,dampair”,即温暖潮湿的空气。4.江西省名校(临川一中、南

adingaretheprincipaltoolsthatinspire,createandempowerourimagination.”可知,写作和阅读是激发、创造和增强我们想象力的主要工具,由此可知,作者重视文字的作用是因

更加烦恼的是随处可见的烟头。在美国加利福尼亚有这样一位“烟头女士(她利用业余时间捡拾烟头,并在最近捡到了第100万个烟头!1.D【解析】事实细节题。由第二段中Tokeepacountofhowmanybuttsshepicksup,theButtLadyhasbeenusingat
ablet(平板电脑)一句可知为了记录自己捡到的烟头数量,theButtLady带了平板电脑。故选D。2.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知Sally很厌烦看到这么多烟头,她对捡起来这么多数量的烟头感到震惊,并且劝告大家最好不要吸烟。因此她的感受应该是“震惊和难过的”。故B项最恰当。3
.C【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段andalreadyhasanewmilestoneinhersights—twomillioncigarettebutts可知C项正确。根据第三段…I’veeverpi

篇解读】这是一篇说明文。研究表明对人和动物来说,做梦的一个目的是练习重要的技能,弄清楚最近所学的东西。1.B【解析】细节理解题。由第二段“Obviously,thedreamingcatsseemedtobepractisingimportant
catskills:following,pouncing(猛扑),andfighting.”可知,显然,做梦的猫似乎在练习重要的猫技能:跟随、猛扑,还有打架。所以MichelJouvet在他的研究中发现,做梦的猫经常会练习它们所学的重要技能。
故B选项正确。2.C【解析】推理判断题。由第四段“Manyresearchersnowthinkthatinbothpeopleandanimals,onepurposeofdreamsistopra
ctiseimportantskillsandfigureoutrecentlearning”许多研究人员现在认为,对人和动物来说,做梦的一个目的是练习重要的技能,弄清楚最近所学的东西。老鼠是动物的一种,所以判断出,老鼠经常做梦目的是清楚它们最近所学的东西。故C选项正确。3.A【
解析】细节理解题。由第五段“Catsdreamaboutevery15minutes,miceevery9minutes,andelephantsevery2hours”可知,猫每15分钟做梦一次,老鼠每9
分钟做梦一次,大象每2小时做梦一次。通过对动物做梦频率的对比,可以看出老鼠做梦最频繁。故A选项正确。4.D【解析】推理判断题。由第二段“MichelJouvet,aFrenchscientist,interruptedtheirsleepparalysis.Eventhoughth
eywerecompletelyasleep,thedreamingcatsbegantorunforballsthatJouvetcouldn’tseeandarched(弓起)theirbacksatunseenenemies.
Hefigureshewaswatchingthemactouttheirdreams!Obviously,thedreamingcatsseemedtobepractisingimportantcatski

(迷宫).Oneday,heleftthebrain-wave-recordingmachineonwhiletheratsfellasleep.Thepatternofbrainwavesinthesleepingratsmatchedthepatternfrom
themazesocloselythatWilsoncouldfigureoutexactlywhichpartofthemazeeachratwasdreamingabout!以及最后段“.Catsdre
amaboutevery15minutes,miceevery9minutes,andelephantsevery2hours.”可知,法国科学家米歇尔·茹维特打断了他们的睡眠瘫痪。即使它们完全睡着了
,做梦的猫也开始跑向朱维特所看不见的球,并拱起他们的背对着看不见的敌人。他想他是在看它们表演他们的梦!显然,做梦的猫似乎在练习重要的猫技能:跟随、扑向,还有打架。在另一项研究中,马特·威尔逊记录了老鼠学习迷宫时的脑电波。一天,当老鼠睡
着的时候,他把脑波记录仪开着。睡眠中老鼠的脑电波模式与迷宫中的模式非常接近,以至于威尔逊能够准确地找出每只老鼠梦到了迷宫的哪个部分。猫每15分钟做梦一次,老鼠每9分钟做梦一次,大象每2小时做梦一次!。
所以每个研究所得出的结论,以及对问题的回答都是基于事实。故判断出作者通过展示事实来展开短文的。故D选项正确。7.湖南省长沙市雅礼中学2019届高三下学期模拟Ateamofinternationalscientistsisduetosetofffortheworld’sbiggesticeber

联系变得越来越容易,但在数字通信中更容易违反某些新的交流规则而无意识地陷入两难境地。对此许多人对这种现象表达了忧虑。1.C【解析】推理判断题。由第二段“Buttheonethingthathehatesmorethananythi
ngelseinlifeistheterribleone-wordmessage”可知,在生活中他最痛恨的一件事就是一个字的信息。所以通过关键词“hate,terrible”可以判断出,马克不能忍受一个字的信息。故C选项正确。2.B【解析】推理判断题。由第一段“Don’t
calluntilyou’vetextedtoconfirmit’sOKtocall”可知,在你发短信确认可以打电话之前不要打电话。很多人都违反了这个交流规则。所以B选项“吉姆没有事先确认就打电话给比尔”违反了沟通交流的规则。故
B选项正确。3.D【解析】细节理解题。由第五段“Unlikelanguage,digitalcommunicationcanbefilledwithambiguousclues(线索、迹象)thatthepersonontheotherendofthecall,textorema
ilmayormaynoteasilyunderstand.”可知,与语言不同的是,数字通信可以充满模糊的线索。电话、文本或电子邮件另一端的人可能很容易理解什么意思,也可能不容易理解是什么意思。所以为什么人们在数字通信中会产生误解是因为人们在没有明确线索的情况下会收到错误的信息。故D选项正
确。4.B【解析】推理判断题。通读全文可知,随着技术的进步,人与人之间的联系变得越来越容易,但更容易违反某些新的交流规则而无意识地陷入两难境地。对此许多人对这种现象表达了忧虑。所以判断出短文目的就是期望人们能够在数字通信过程中要
注意规则。所以读了这篇文章后,人们被期望能够在数字通信过程中要注意规则。故B选项正确。3.山东省临沂市2019届高三三模考试ScientistsinWesternAustraliaclaimtohavemadeanewdiscovery—theyhavefoundg

发现被描述为世界上第一个类似的发现。但作者认为第一次在生命物质中发现金子微粒的说法可能是不正确的,并证实了这种观点。1.B【解析】细节理解题。由第一段“Theresearchersbelievethatthetreessuckupthegoldfromdeepunderground,over30m
etresdown.”可知,研究人员相信这些树能从30米以下的地下深处吸收黄金。所以从第一段我们可以知道树木能从地下深处吸收金子。故B选项正确。2.C【解析】细节理解题。由第一段“ThegoldisfoundusingaspecialX—ray
machineownedbyanAustraliangovernmentagency”可知,黄金是用澳大利亚政府机构拥有的一台特殊的X光机来发现的。所以科学家用特殊的x射线来寻找树叶中的金子。故C选项正确。3.A【解析】细节
理解题。由第二段“AncientChinesewisdomunderstoodtheconnectionbetweenplantsandthepreciousstonesandmineralsunderne
aththem.Theyusedplantlifetofindmineralsandthatwasthousandsofyearsago.”可知,中国古代的智慧了解植物和其下面的宝石和矿物之间的联系。他们用植物来寻找矿物,那是几千年前的事了。所以中国古代人民首先发现植物和矿物之间有联系。
故A选项正确。4.B【解析】推理判断题。由最后一段可知,重要的是,在11世纪,苏松描述了铜、金、银、铅和锡是如何被观察到并从某些植物中被提取出来。这些都是令人惊奇的科学发现。同时,直到1600年左右,世界其他地方都不知道这一知识。这时一个英国人意识到橡树变得更大
更绿。在其下面发现了明矾,也许古代中国人有更多的知识来传授给现代科学家。所以最后一段,仍然在说明在生命物质中发现金子微粒很早就已经存在了。所以第一次在生命物质中发现金子微粒的说法是不正确的。故最后一段的目的是提供更多的证据来支持作者的观点。故
B选项正确。4.江西师范大学附属中学2019届高三三模Alargebodyofresearchhasbeendevelopedinrecentyearstoexplainmanyaspectsofwillpower.Mostofth

面对诱惑时使意志力保持坚强。1.C【解析】细节推理题。根据第三段Researchersdon’tbelievethatone’swillpowerisevercompletelyexhausted.Rather,peopleappeartoholdsomew
illpowerinreserve,savedforfuturedemands.可知,研究人员不相信人的意志力会完全耗尽,他们还有备用的和为将来需求节省的意志力。所以从文章中的研究我们了解到意志力几乎没有完全丧失。故C选项正确。2.A【解析】猜测词义题。由第
三段“Therightmotivationallowsustotapintothosereserves,allowingustocarryonevenwhenourself-controlstrengthhasbeenrundown.”可知,正确的动机使我们能够利用这些储备,即使
我们的自我控制能力已经被消耗殆尽,我们仍然可以继续前进。所以通过上下文的语境,判断出“tapinto”指利用,与makeuseof同义。故A选项正确。3.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段Whilemusclesbecomeexhaustedbyex
erciseintheshortterm,theyarestrengthenedbyregularexerciseinthelongterm.Similarly,regularpracticesofself-controlmayimprovewillpowerstrength.可
知,虽然肌肉在短期内会因运动而疲惫不堪,但长期而言,它们会通过经常锻炼而增强。同样规律的自我控制可以提高意志力。两者相比是为了说明同一个道理:长期的锻炼和自我控制的好处。所以作者把自我控制比作肌肉是为了解释自我控制的好处。故D选项正确。4.C【解析】推
理判断题。根据倒数第二段Takinggoalsonebyoneisabetterapproach.Onceagoodhabitisinplace,you’llnolongerneedtodrawonyourwillpowertomaintainthebehavior.Eventu
allyhealthyhabitswillbecomeroutine,andwon’trequiremakingdecisionsatall.可知,作者认为一个接一个的制定目标是一个更好的方法。一旦养成好习惯,你就不再需要依靠意志力来维持自己的行为。最终健康的习惯将成为
惯例,而且不需要做任何决定。所以C项“IwillreadanEnglishnoveleverymonth.”是先设立目标,然后成为好习惯,作者更喜欢这种目标。故C选项正确。5.河南省开封市2019届高三第三次模拟考试Squirrelsaren’tnaturalcitydw

应该留在城市生活的问题。1.D【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的Aroundthattime,thetree-dwellinganimalswerebeingsetfreeinAmerica’surbana
reasto“createpocketsofpeaceandcalmlikethecountryside,”可知,松鼠被引进费城是为了让城市生活变得更宁静,故选D。2.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的Inthe1910saleaderoft

rewardsoftreatingaweakercreaturewithsympathy,saysBenson.(Benson说,20世纪10年代,美国童子军的一位领导人说,教孩子喂松鼠可以显示出同情地对待弱小动物的回报。)可知
,这名童子军领导支持喂养松鼠的行为,故选C。3.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的Bythe1950sthoseworkinganimalshadbeenmovedtothecountryside(到20世
纪50年代,这些动物已经被转移到农村)和第五段中的Beforelong,peoplesenthusiasmforsquirrelsworeoff,andtheystartedtoseethemasannoyances.Bythe1970smanyparksbann
edfeedingthecreatures(不久,人们对松鼠的热情就消退了,他们开始把松鼠视为讨厌的东西。到20世纪70年代,许多公园禁止给这些动物喂食。)由此推断出,在20世纪60年代左右,城市松鼠开始失宠,故选B。4.C【解
析】细节理解题。根据最后一段中的constructive和agoodthing等关键词,以及It’sgoodforthesoul可判断Benson认为松鼠应该被允许留在城市里,故选C。
