參考答案
1.答案:l.D;2.C;3.C;4.A
解析:1.詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線部分上下文可知,最近,世界各地的一些地區(qū)都遭到了森林大火的破
壞,而且火勢越來越嚴(yán)重,故gravity意為“嚴(yán)重性”。
2.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段和第三段第一句可知,目前的檢測方法很大程度上依賴人的觀察力,這會
延遲有效的反應(yīng)。這種新型傳感器可以向附近的接收器發(fā)送無線信號,可以更快、更早地檢測出火
災(zāi)。
3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段Kent說的話可知,改善消防機(jī)構(gòu)之間的協(xié)調(diào)更為關(guān)鍵,你對火的反應(yīng),直到
它被撲滅,就像一場芭蕾舞。你必須策劃和設(shè)計,在正確的時間和地點(diǎn)分配資源,從探測到確認(rèn)再到調(diào)
度再到火熄滅。故可推知,滅火是一項合作而有秩序的活動。
4.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段Wang說的話可知,他的研究小組下一步將把這種新型傳感器的信號范
圍擴(kuò)大為目前的100米以外,并為此開發(fā)一種保護(hù)罩。發(fā)射機(jī)的有效性也需要現(xiàn)場測試。
2.答案:l.D;2.B;3.D;4.A
解析:1.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Thencomestheindirectrebound:fuelsavingsleavetheownerwith
moremoneytospendelsewhereintheeconomy,consumingenergy4然后是間接反彈:節(jié)省的燃料使車
主有更多的錢花在其他經(jīng)濟(jì)領(lǐng)域,消耗能源。)”可知,D項“女士把省油汽車節(jié)省的錢花在買更多的衣
服上。”就是把省下來的錢花在其他經(jīng)濟(jì)領(lǐng)域(服裝領(lǐng)域)上,符合間接反彈效應(yīng)。D項正確,其它選項
不符合題意。故選D項。
2.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Althoughthe33studiesuseddifferentmelhodstomodeltherebound
effect,(盡管這33項研究使用了不同的方法來模擬反彈效應(yīng),)”中的modelthereboundeffect可知,研
究團(tuán)隊是通過模擬回彈效應(yīng)進(jìn)行他們的研究的。故選B項。
3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“"We'renotsayingenergyefficiencydoesn'twork.Whatwe'resayingis
reboundneedstobetakenmoreseriouslysaysBrockway.(Brockway說:"我們并不是說能源效率不起
作用,我們的意思是需要更加認(rèn)真地對待經(jīng)濟(jì)反彈。")"中的betakenmoreseriously可知,Brockway
認(rèn)為應(yīng)該更加關(guān)注回彈效應(yīng)。故選D項。
4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Butthatdoesn'tmeannothingcanbedonetolimitthereboundeffect.
Oneansweristodoubledownonenergyefficiencyanddotwiceasmuchtoachievethesameeffect.(但這
并不意味著我們不能采取任何措施來限制反彈效應(yīng)。一個解決辦法是加倍提高能源效率,并采取雙
倍的措施來達(dá)到同樣的效果。)”中的雙重否定句可知,作者對于限制反彈效應(yīng)是持積極(positive)態(tài)度
的,并提出了對應(yīng)的解決辦法。故選A項。
3.答案:1-4ABDB
解析:1.考查理解具體信息的能力。第一段提到我們能夠識別朋友的臉彳艮多群居動物也能夠通過
面部特征來識別自己種群里的個體。由此可知,這不是人類獨(dú)有的能力。
2.考查推理判斷的能力。根據(jù)第二段"Scientistshavealsowonderedwhetherdomesticatedanimalsthat
havecoexistedwithpeopleforthousandsofyearscanrecognizedifferenthumanfaces.LeaLansade...is
oneofthem.Herexperimentonhorsesprovidesinsightintothis"并結(jié)合第三段實(shí)驗(yàn)的內(nèi)容可知,L6a
Lansade和她的團(tuán)隊做實(shí)驗(yàn)是為了研究馬識別人臉的能力。故選B。
3.考查推理判斷的能力。最后一段提到,在馬廄里做任何可能會讓馬悶悶不樂的事情之前要三思。
畢竟,它很可能會“記住”你。由此可知,作者在最后一段使用了比較幽默的口吻來行文。
4.考查理解主旨要義的能力。本文主要講的是研究發(fā)現(xiàn)馴養(yǎng)的馬通過看照片就可以認(rèn)出自己的飼養(yǎng)
者。故選B。
4.答案:l.B;2.B;3.A;4.B
解析:1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的Onetheory,whichdatesbackto1923,isthattheinsectsarelifted
upbyatinyaircavity(氣腔)eachhasbeneathitsoutershell,whichallowstheinsectstofloat.可知,按照
1923年的某個理論,球背象鼻蟲能漂浮于水面。
2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的Pachyrhynchusweevilshaveapreferenceforlayingtheireggsinside
thefruitofaplantcalledthefish-poisontree.及Fish-poison-treefruitsarealsoprotectedfromhungrysea
creatures.Butintheircase,astheirnamesuggests,theprotectionischemical.可知,魚毒樹果實(shí)為球背象鼻
蟲的幼蟲提供了避身之所,使其能安全度過海上“漂流之旅工
3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的IheKuroshioCurrent,whichcarrieswaterfromthePhilippines,past
JapanandonwardsintothePacific,movessoswiftlythatapieceoffruitcaughtinitcouldeasilytravel
90kminaday可知,theKuroshioCurrent使得魚毒樹果實(shí)可以在海水中快速行進(jìn)。
4.文章出處題。作者在文中介紹了一項關(guān)于一種叫球背象鼻蟲的昆蟲的研究,本文最有可能出自雜
志的科普欄目。
5.答案:l.D;2.A;3.B;4.A
解析:1.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Itseemstoshowthatpolarexplorerswholivedfor14monthsatan
Antarcticaresearchstationexperiencedbrainshrinkage(縮?。?,likelyasaresultoftheirlonelinessand
boredom"這似乎表明,在南極研究站生活了14個月的極地探險者大腦出現(xiàn)了萎縮,可能是由于他們
的孤獨(dú)和無聊。所以長時間處在單獨(dú)的地方會導(dǎo)致大腦損害。故選D項。
2.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Finally,comparedtothemselvesbeforethemission,theexplorers,brains
appearedtohavelessgreymatteronaverage.^^最后,與執(zhí)行任務(wù)前相比,探險者的大腦平均灰質(zhì)較少。
可知科學(xué)家是對比掃描結(jié)果來得出結(jié)論的,故選A項。
3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Theshrinkagewasmost叩parentinthehippocampus,intheareaofthe
brainkeytomemoryandcognition.^^這種萎縮在海馬體中,在大腦中負(fù)責(zé)記憶和認(rèn)知的關(guān)鍵區(qū)域最為
明顯。由此判斷出探險者在回來的時候在記憶方面有些困難。故選B項。
4.主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段"sincepeoplewillcontinuetravelingtoandfromAntarcticaforlong
periodsoftime,thefindingsaredefinitelyworthkeepinginmindandexploringfurther.Theymighteven
proverelevantfortherarefewpeoplewhomighttravelasfarasMarsinthefuture”由于人們將在很長
一段時間內(nèi)繼續(xù)往返于南極洲之間,這些發(fā)現(xiàn)絕對值得我們牢記在心,并進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步的探索。它們甚
至可能被證明與極少數(shù)幾個將來可能遠(yuǎn)赴火星的人有關(guān)。可知最后一段主要是關(guān)于此項發(fā)現(xiàn)的重
要性。故選A項。
6.答案:l.C;2.B;3.B;4.C
解析:1.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段全段Tenofthe39victimswerefromtheCanLocdistrictofHa
Tinhprovince,.......andhowmuchwillVietnamesefamiliesneedtocontribute."可知,39名受害者中有
10人來自HaTinh省的CanLoc區(qū),BuiHuyCuong是那里的人民委員會副主席。他在接受《衛(wèi)報》
(Guardian)采訪時表示,官員們已經(jīng)走訪了失去親人的家庭,鼓勵他們接受骨灰,而不是尸體,因?yàn)檫@樣
更便宜。但是他說,家屬希望得到遺體,這樣他們就可以在傳統(tǒng)的葬禮上紀(jì)念,他們希望當(dāng)局會出錢。
他說產(chǎn)目前,我們不確定英國或越南政府是否會承擔(dān)將受害者帶回越南的責(zé)任?!薄凹胰藢Υ艘粺o所
知。很快就會清楚哪個政府(如果有的話)將承擔(dān)責(zé)任……英國和越南政府可以支付多少,越南家庭需
要貢獻(xiàn)多少?!币虼丝芍?BuiHuyCuong在第二段中主要想表達(dá)如何籌集資金將受害者帶回越南。

HuyCuong表達(dá)觀點(diǎn)的一小部分,并不是他主要表達(dá)的內(nèi)容。故A項錯誤。B項,“一些當(dāng)局鼓勵家庭
接受骨灰一些當(dāng)局鼓勵家庭接受骨灰只是BuiHuyCuong表達(dá)觀點(diǎn)的一小部分,并不是他主要表
達(dá)的內(nèi)容。故B項錯誤。D項,“家庭想要尸體,這樣他們就可以在傳統(tǒng)的葬禮上得到尊重”。家庭想

給家里人的信息被媒體公開了,內(nèi)容十分令人難過,因此引起了公眾的關(guān)注。B項意為“引人注目的狀
態(tài)符合題意,故B項正確。A項,“可能造成傷害”;C項,“愉快或有吸引力的性質(zhì)”;D項,“通過頻繁
