【答案】21.D22.A23.B

【導語】本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章主要介紹了紅十字會招聘為受災(zāi)家庭提供幫助的志愿者的要求以及志愿

者的職責等。

21.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“DisasterActionTeamvolunteersarereadytorespondtotheseemergencies,24

hoursaday,365daysayear.（災(zāi)難行動小組的志愿者已經(jīng)準備好應(yīng)對這些緊急情況，一天24小時，一年365

天。）”可知，災(zāi)難行動小組的志愿者要隨時準備幫助人們應(yīng)付緊急情況。故選D。

22.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Manydisasteractionteamvolunteerssharetheselifeexperiencesandskills部分中“Can

remaincalmandpatientduringstressfulsituations（在緊張的情況下能保持冷靜和耐心嗎）“可知，志愿者需要

具有保持冷靜的能力。故選A。

23.推理判斷題。文章介紹了紅十字會招聘為受災(zāi)家庭提供幫助的志愿者的要求和志愿者的職責，結(jié)合首

段末句"Sojoinustoanswerthecallwhenyourneighborsneedhelp.（所以，當你的鄰居需要幫助的時候，加入

我們吧。）”可知，文章的目的是號召人們成為志愿者。故選B。

【答案】24.C25.B26.D27.C

【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。Connor在一次交通事故中失去了生命，Connor的父親David化悲痛為力

量，為大學設(shè)立獎學金并宣傳安全駕駛知識。

24.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的"Connorhadjuststartedcollegeandlovedbeingatthatstageinhislifewhere

hecouldeatallthepizzahewanted,getengagedinadultconversationswithhisparentsabouttheresponsibilityto

makelifebetterforothers.（康納剛剛上大學，他喜歡在人生的那個階段，在那里他可以吃到他想要的所有披

薩，與父母進行成年人之間的對話，探討讓他人生活更美好的責任。）”以及下文中描述的具體的生活中的美

好事情可知，主要講述了Connor的成長和美好前程，結(jié)合第二段“ButitallendedonenightwhenConnorwas

distractedwhiledrivingonaColoradohigh-way.Ayoungman,whogaveoffsomuchlight,suddenlywent

dark.（但這一切都結(jié)束了，有一天晚上，康納在科羅拉多州的高速公路上開車時分心了。一個散發(fā)出如此光

芒的年輕人，突然隕落。）”可知，Connor在一次事故中喪生，由此可知，第一段的目的是襯托David失去

兒子后的痛苦。故選C項。

25.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“ButitallendedonenightwhenConnorwasdistractedwhiledrivingonaColorado

high-way.Ayoungman,whogaveoffsomuchlight,suddenlywentdark.（但這——切者R結(jié)束了，有——天晚上，康納

在科羅拉多州的高速公路上開車時分心了。一個散發(fā)出如此光芒的年輕人，突然隕落。）”可知，Connor開

車時分心了，在交通事故中失去了生命。故選B項。

26.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段倒數(shù)第二句"ButConnor'soptimismwasoneofthosetraitspassedontohimbyhis

father.（但康納的樂觀是他父親傳給他的特質(zhì)之一。）”可知,Connor的樂觀是遺傳他的父親Davido故選D項。

27.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第二句"Next,hewenttoworkcreatingaresearch-basedcurriculumthateducates

UniversityofColoradoBoulderstudentsandtheirfamiliesaboutthedangersoftextingwhiledriving.（接下來，他

開始創(chuàng)建一個基于研究的課程，教育科羅拉多大學博爾德分校的學生及其家人開車時發(fā)短信的危險。廠可知，

課程內(nèi)容就是宣傳駕駛時發(fā)短信的危險；再根據(jù)最后一段中的““Ijustdon'twantotherparentstogothrough

whatIdidwhenIlostConnor,9,saysDavid."It'sjustsopreventable."（"我只是不想讓其他父母經(jīng)歷我失去康納

時所做的事情，”大衛(wèi)說。“這完全可以避免J'）”可知，他的目的是想防止類似的悲傷故事重演。故選C項。

【導語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了科學家們發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草場。他們使用一些不尋常

的助手拍攝的視頻來做到這一點：虎鯊。這項工作應(yīng)該有助于保護海草，同時也展示了一種探索海洋的強

大方式。

28.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“Theyhelpinthefightagainsttheclimatecrisis.That,sbecausetheystorehuge

amountsofcarbon——themajorsourceofglobalwarming.Damagingtheseseagrassmeadowscanreleasethis

pollutantagain,makingthingsworse.”（它們有助于對抗氣候危機。這是因為它們儲存了大量的碳全球變

暖的主要來源。破壞這些海草草甸會再次釋放這種污染物，使情況變得更糟。）可知，海草草場迫切需要保

護是因為破壞它們將加劇氣候危機。故選A項。

29.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“Between2016and2020,theresearchersattachedcamerasandothertrackersto

thefinsofseventigersharks,andthenletthemgoagain.Thecamerasweredesignedtofalloffafterhoursand

后又放了它們。這些相機被設(shè)計成在幾小時后脫落并漂浮到水面上。跟蹤信號幫助找到了漂浮的攝像頭，

并收集了鯊魚在幾英里外旅行時拍攝的視頻。止匕外，還使用了其他工具，包括衛(wèi)星圖像以及潛水員和船只

拍攝的圖像。）可知，虎鯊是通過隨身攜帶記錄設(shè)備幫助科學研究的。故選C項。

30.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段"Differentfrompreviousstudies,theprogramdiscovershowusefullarge

team,saysanimalsliketigersharksaregoingtotakeustonewplacesthatwedidn'tknowexisted.（與之前的研

利（OliverShipley）說，像虎鯊這樣的動物將把我們帶到我們不知道存在的新地方。）可推知，根據(jù)文章，研

究的亮點是不同尋常的研究輔助對象——即虎鯊。故選D項。

31.主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章大意以及第一段“Scientistshaverecentlydiscoveredtheworld'slargestknownfieldof

seagrass.Theydiditusingvideosshotbysomeextraordinaryhelpers.Theworkshouldhelpprotecttheseagrass,

andalsoshowsoffapowerfulwaytoexploretheocean.”（科學家最近發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草田。他

們使用了一些非凡的幫手拍攝的視頻。這項工作應(yīng)該有助于保護海草，也展示了一種探索海洋的有力方式。）

和第二段中“Asashelterformanyseacreatures,seagrassesarefloweringplantsthatnormallygrowinshallow

watersnearcoasts.Theygrowinthickfields,knownasseagrassmeadows（海草床），whichhelpcleantheocean

water.Moreimportantly,theyarecalled“oceanlung".”（作為許多海洋生物的避難所，海草是一種開花植物，

通常生長在靠近海岸的淺水區(qū)。它們生長在厚厚的田野里，被稱為海草草地，這有助于清潔海水。更重要

的是，它們被稱為“海洋肺”。）可知，主要講述了科學家們發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草場。他們使用一

些不尋常的助手拍攝的視頻來做到這一點：虎鯊。這項工作應(yīng)該有助于保護海草，同時也展示了一種探索

海洋的強大方式。故文章最好的標題是“由自然探險家測量的海洋肺”。故選D項。

瑟琳二世出價高價購買他的藏書。在這次幸運的拍賣之后不久，狄德羅得到了一件新的晨衣，這對他的生

活產(chǎn)生了巨大的影響。正如他在1769年的文章中所寫的那樣，這件新睡袍使他的其他物品顯得陳舊而沒有

吸引力。因此，他開始更換它們。）”可知，在幸運的拍賣后，他獲得了一件新的晨衣，在這之后他就一直在

購買新的物品。故選C。

結(jié)果，即我們的財產(chǎn)要齊頭并進，以反映我們的自我形象。）”可知，人們之所以會購買許多不需要的東西，

往往是因為買了一件新的東西后，希望其他的東西也與之相匹配。故選C。
