答案及解析

A

【答案】1.C2.D3.C4.C

【解析】這是一篇說明文。一項研究表明，抱怨會導致在解決問題時起重要作用的海馬區(qū)變

小。除了造成大腦損傷，抱怨還會釋放一種壓力荷爾蒙:皮質(zhì)醇，持續(xù)高水平的皮質(zhì)醇會導

致高血壓、高血糖和免疫力下降。處理持續(xù)負面情緒的最好方法是培養(yǎng)一種感恩的意識。

1.主旨大意題。根據(jù)第三段Yettheharmfuleffectsdon*tstopthere.Astudyshowsthat

complainingcausesthehippocampuswhichplaysavitalroleinproblem-solving,tobecomesmaller.

(然而，有害影響還不止于此。一項研究表明，抱怨會導致在解決問題時起重要作用的海馬

區(qū)變小。）以及第二段主要解釋了抱怨如何對大腦產(chǎn)生消極影響的。故可知第2-3段主要談

論抱怨對腦力的不良影響。故選C。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句Constantlyhavingahighlevelofcortisolresultsinhigh

bloodpressure,highbloodsugar,andlowerimmunity.（持續(xù)高水平的皮質(zhì)醇會導致高血壓、高

血糖和免疫力下降。）可知皮質(zhì)醇水平過高會導致許多健康問題。故選D。

3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段最后一句Forthisreason,weshouldbecautiousabouthaving

stubborncomplainersinourcircleofcompanions.（基于這個原因，我們應(yīng)該小心在我們的朋

友圈里有固執(zhí)的抱怨者。）可知作者對于固執(zhí)抱怨者的態(tài)度是不贊成、反對的。故選C。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一句Pleaseshareyourthoughtsinthecommentssectionbelow.

（請在下面的評論區(qū)分享你的想法。）可知文章最有可能是出現(xiàn)在一張網(wǎng)頁上。故選C。

B

【語篇解讀】本文為記敘文。講述了九十高齡的Irene作為英國最年長的全職員工，依

然在寵物店做著朝九晚五的工作，沒有退休的打算，她被頒發(fā)“年度女士”稱號。

l.being【解析】考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)其前介詞for可知，此處用動名詞形式作賓語，

故填being

2.which【解析】考查非限制性定語從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，先行詞為thepetshop,

在非限制性定語從句中作opened一詞的賓語，故用which。

3.finally【解析】考查副詞用法。根據(jù)空格所處位置可知，此處應(yīng)用副詞形式作狀語，

修飾謂語動詞havebeenacknowledged,意為“最終得以認可”，故填finally0

4.declare
