【答案】8.B9.B10.A11.C

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文，文章介紹了Anmet公司如何將廢舊風(fēng)力發(fā)電機(jī)葉片重新利用，發(fā)展可持續(xù)環(huán)保技術(shù)的情況。

【8題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段“Foundedin1998byAndrzejAdamcio,thecompanycalledAnmetwasoriginallystartedtoprovidemanufacturingcompanieswithsolutionsformetalsrecycling.(Anmet公司由AndrzejAdamcio于1998年創(chuàng)立，最初是為制造企業(yè)提供金屬回收解決方案。)”可知，Anmet公司最初的重點(diǎn)是處理金屬回收。故選B項(xiàng)。

【9題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段“Inthelongterm,Anmet’srecyclingsolutioninvolvesthephysicalrepurposing(賦予新用途)ofglassfiberwindturbineblades.(從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來(lái)看，Anmet的回收解決方案涉及玻璃纖維風(fēng)力渦輪機(jī)葉片的物理再利用。)”可知，Anmet公司的目標(biāo)是將退役的風(fēng)力發(fā)電機(jī)葉片用于基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。故選B項(xiàng)。

【10題詳解】

詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)劃線詞之前“Inthelongterm,Anmet’srecyclingsolutioninvolvesthephysicalrepurposing(賦予新用途)ofglassfiberwindturbineblades.Thecompany’sservicesstarton-site:representativeswilltraveltoawindfarm(從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來(lái)看，Anmet的回收解決方案涉及玻璃纖維風(fēng)力渦輪機(jī)葉片的物理再利用。公司的服務(wù)從現(xiàn)場(chǎng)開(kāi)始：代表將前往風(fēng)電場(chǎng))”以及劃線詞之后“thebladeintosections,followedbytransportofthepartsbacktotheAnmet’sfacilityforreconstructionintoarchitectureorinfrastructureproducts.(將葉片分成幾個(gè)部分，然后將這些部件運(yùn)送回Anmet的工廠，重新組裝成建筑或基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施產(chǎn)品。)”可推知Anmet的工廠在將玻璃纖維風(fēng)力渦輪機(jī)葉片重新組裝成建筑或基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施產(chǎn)品之前需要將其分解成幾部分，所以劃線詞dismantle的意思與A項(xiàng)Takeapart意思相近。故選A項(xiàng)。

【11題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段“Replacingtypicalsteelorsteel-strengthenedconcreteroadbarrierswithrepurposedglassfiberwindbladecomponentsenablesgreaterresistancetodamagefromcorrosive(腐蝕性的)soilenvironments.Theblockscanbeadaptedinshapetofittheneedsofaparticularsituation.(用重新利用的玻璃纖維風(fēng)葉片組件取代典型的鋼或鋼增強(qiáng)混凝土道路屏障，可以更好地抵抗腐蝕性土壤環(huán)境的破壞。這些砌塊可以根據(jù)特定情況的需要進(jìn)行形狀調(diào)整。)”可知，Anmet的巖土工程砌塊可以根據(jù)特殊情況進(jìn)行調(diào)整。故選C項(xiàng)。

D

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了一項(xiàng)關(guān)于鳳頭鸚鵡的研究，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)鳳頭鸚鵡可以結(jié)合多種工具來(lái)完成一項(xiàng)復(fù)雜的任務(wù)，它們可以使用一套工具，甚至可以在情況需要時(shí)隨身攜帶工具。

【12題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“Inthefirstexperiment,thebirdshadtoobtainseedsinaboxfrombehindaclearmembrane(薄膜)byusingashort,pointysticktobreakopenthebarrier,beforefishingouttheseedswithalongplasticstraw(吸管).(在第一個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)中，鳥(niǎo)類必須用一根短而尖的棍子打破透明薄膜后面的盒子，然后用一根長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的塑料吸管把種子撈出來(lái))”可知，在第一個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)中，鳳頭鸚鵡需要用棍子打破了薄膜。故選A。

【13題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Next,researchersconductedthesecondexperimentusingseparateboxeswithandwithoutamembrane.(接下來(lái)，研究人員使用帶膜和不帶膜的單獨(dú)盒子進(jìn)行了第二次實(shí)驗(yàn))”和“Allofthecockatooswereabletorecognizewhenasingletoolwassufficient.(所有的鳳頭鸚鵡都能識(shí)別出什么時(shí)候一個(gè)工具就足夠了)”可知，鳳頭鸚鵡知道，如果沒(méi)有薄膜，一根塑料吸管就足夠了。故選C。

【14題詳解】

主旨大意題。通讀全文，結(jié)合第一段中“Cockatoos(鳳頭鸚鵡)cancombinemultipletoolstocompleteacomplextask,anachievementscientistspreviouslythoughtonlychimpanzeesandhumanscoulddo,anewstudyreveals.(一項(xiàng)新的研究顯示，鳳頭鸚鵡可以結(jié)合多種工具來(lái)完成一項(xiàng)復(fù)雜的任務(wù)，科學(xué)家們以前認(rèn)為只有黑猩猩和人類才能做到這一點(diǎn))”和“InarecentstudypublishedinthejournalCurrentBiology,researchersshowedthatcockatooscouldusetoolsasaset(在最近發(fā)表在《當(dāng)代生物學(xué)》雜志上的一項(xiàng)研究中，研究人員表明，鳳頭鸚鵡可以使用一套工具)”可推知，文章報(bào)道了一項(xiàng)關(guān)于鳳頭鸚鵡的研究，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)鳳頭鸚鵡可以結(jié)合多種工具來(lái)完成一項(xiàng)復(fù)雜的任務(wù)，它們可以使用一套工具。所以“CockatoosKnowWhentoUseaToolsettoGettheJobDone(鳳頭鸚鵡知道何時(shí)使用一套工具來(lái)完成工作)”是最佳標(biāo)題。故選D。

【15題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中“InarecentstudypublishedinthejournalCurrentBiology,researchersshowedthatcockatooscouldusetoolsasaset,andcanevencarrythetoolsaroundwiththemwhenthesituationcallsforit.(在最近發(fā)表在《當(dāng)代生物學(xué)》雜志上的一項(xiàng)研究中，研究人員表明，鳳頭鸚鵡可以使用工具作為一套工具，甚至可以在情況需要時(shí)隨身攜帶工具)”可知，文章介紹了一項(xiàng)關(guān)于鳳頭鸚鵡的研究，因此它最有可能來(lái)自一份與科學(xué)研究相關(guān)的報(bào)告。故選A。

【16題詳解】

根據(jù)空格前“Inthepast,animalsheltersinSingaporewerehorribleplaces.Mostofthemwereveryoldbuildingsthatweredirty,noisyandcrowded.(過(guò)去，新加坡的動(dòng)物收容所是個(gè)可怕的地方。它們大多是非常古老的建筑，又臟又吵又擁擠。)”可知新加坡過(guò)去的動(dòng)物收容所是非常糟糕的地方，根據(jù)空格后“In2023,thegovernmentdecidedtochangethis.Sincethen,26animalsheltersacrossSingaporehavebeenrebuiltorrepairedwithsupportfromthegovernment.Thenewbuildingsaresobeautifulthatsomehaveevenbecometouristattractions.(2023年，政府決定改變這一現(xiàn)狀。從那以后，在政府的支持下，新加坡各地重建或修復(fù)了26個(gè)動(dòng)物收容所。這些新建筑非常漂亮，有些甚至成為了旅游景點(diǎn)。)”可知政府自2023年以來(lái)對(duì)動(dòng)物收容所進(jìn)行了改建和修復(fù)，所以新的收容所更令人愉快，空處承上啟下，所以空格中應(yīng)講過(guò)去的動(dòng)物收容所對(duì)動(dòng)物來(lái)說(shuō)可能不是個(gè)好選擇，G選項(xiàng)中的Foranimals,livingonthestreetmighthavebeenabetteroptionthangoingtooneoftheseshelters.(對(duì)于動(dòng)物來(lái)說(shuō)，住在街上可能比去收容所。)指出在過(guò)去即使是住在街上也比過(guò)去的動(dòng)物收容所要好的多，承接上文，引出下文，而且G項(xiàng)中的theseshelters指代空前的animalsheltersinSingapore，符合上下文語(yǔ)境。故選G項(xiàng)。

【17題詳解】

根據(jù)空格前“In2023,thegovernmentalsomadeanewlawthatnolongerallowedshelterstokillanimalsthatdidn’tgetadopted.(2023年，政府還制定了一項(xiàng)新法律，不再允許收容所殺死未被收養(yǎng)的動(dòng)物。)”可知新加坡政府在2023年制定了一項(xiàng)不再允許動(dòng)物收容所殺死未被領(lǐng)養(yǎng)的動(dòng)物的法律，根據(jù)空格后“Fortunately,thelargernewshelterscanprovidemorespaceforthestrays(流浪動(dòng)物).Moreimportantly,peoplewillbemorelikelytoadoptanimalsbecausethenewsheltersaremorepleasanttovisit.Someevenhaveaspacewherepeoplecanspendtimewiththepetsbeforeadoptingthem.(幸運(yùn)的是，更大的新收容所可以為流浪動(dòng)物提供更多的空間。更重要地是，人們將更有可能收養(yǎng)動(dòng)物，因?yàn)樾碌氖杖菟钊擞淇?。有些甚至有一個(gè)空間，人們可以在收養(yǎng)寵物之前和它們呆在一起。)”可知新的動(dòng)物收容所可以為流浪動(dòng)物提供更多的空間，空處承上啟下，所以空格中應(yīng)講的是因?yàn)橛辛朔傻谋Ｗo(hù)，所以收容所里將會(huì)有更多的動(dòng)物，C選項(xiàng)中的Itmeansthereareevenmoreanimalslivinginshelters.(這意味著有更多的動(dòng)物住在收容所。)指出因?yàn)橛辛朔傻谋Ｗo(hù)，所以更多的動(dòng)物會(huì)生活在動(dòng)物收容所，而且C項(xiàng)中的It指代的空前整句話的內(nèi)容，承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文情境。故選C項(xiàng)。

根據(jù)空格前“Ifyoubuyapetfromapetstore,it’slikelythatpuppyandkittenmills(制造廠)willbenefit.(如果你從寵物店買寵物，小狗和小貓的制造工廠很可能會(huì)受益。)”可知如果你從寵物商店購(gòu)買寵物可能會(huì)讓繁殖場(chǎng)受益，根據(jù)空格后“Theparentsareusuallykeptinsmallcagesandmadetogivebirthtothenextgenerationrapidlyandendlessly.What’smore,petsfrompetstoresareusuallymuchmoreexpensivethanadoptedones.Theformermaycosttensofthousandsofdollarsdependingonthespecies,whilethelattercancostjustafewhundred.(小動(dòng)物的父母通常被關(guān)在小籠子里，讓它們快速而無(wú)休止地生育下一代。更重要的是，寵物店的寵物通常比領(lǐng)養(yǎng)的要貴得多。前者可能需要花費(fèi)數(shù)萬(wàn)美元，這取決于物種，而后者可能只需要幾百美元。)”講了繁殖場(chǎng)的惡劣條件和從寵物商店購(gòu)買寵物的高價(jià)，空處承上啟下，所以空格處應(yīng)該講的是小狗和小貓的制造工廠會(huì)受益的原因，E選項(xiàng)Theseareplacesthatproducebabyanimalsjustlikeproducts.(這些地方像生產(chǎn)產(chǎn)品一樣生產(chǎn)小動(dòng)物。)指出小狗和小貓的制造工廠會(huì)受益是因?yàn)檫@些地方像生產(chǎn)產(chǎn)品一樣生產(chǎn)小動(dòng)物，承接上文，引出下文，而且E項(xiàng)中的These指代空前的puppyandkittenmills(制造廠)，符合上下文語(yǔ)境。故選E項(xiàng)。
