【答案】21.C22.D23.C

【解析】

【導語】本文是一篇應用文，主要介紹了面向兒童的WeTheCurious科學博物館的相關信息。

[21題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的"Theydressedupasbeestocatchpollen（花粉）madecheese,watchediceform,

weighedhumanbrainsandstretchedoutstripsofDNAtocomparethegeneticsequence（基因序歹[|）ofamonkey

andanarmadillo.（他們打扮成蜜蜂捕捉花粉制成的奶酪，觀察冰的形成，稱重人腦，并伸出DNA條來比較

猴子和北跺的基因序列。）”可推知，在WeTheCurious科學博物館，孩子們可以參加富有教育意義并且有

趣的活動。故選C。

【22題詳解】

數(shù)字計算題。根據(jù)第三段中的“pay￡14.50foradultsand￡9.50forkids（aged3—15）”可知，成人14.5英

鎊，3—15歲的孩子9.5英鎊，所以一對夫婦帶一對5歲的雙胞胎兒子需要的花費是：14.5x2+9.5x2=48英

鎊。故選D。

【23題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中的“WeTheCuriousisneartheNationalCycleNetwork（routes3,4,and33）.The

museumhaslotsofbicycleparking.Alternatively,ifsa10-minutewalkfromBristolTempleMeadsrailwaystation

orafive-minutetaxirideor17-minuteferryride.（WeTheCurious靠近國家自行車網(wǎng)（路線3、4和33）。博物

館有很多自行車停車場?；蛘撸瑥牟祭锼雇袪査略翰菰静叫?0分鐘，或乘坐5分鐘出租車或17分鐘輪

渡。）”可知，WeTheCurious科學博物館靠近國家自行車網(wǎng)，離火車站很近，而且乘坐出租車和輪渡均可

在短時間內到達，由此可推測出，該博物館位置便利。故選C。

【答案】24.B25.A26.A27.D

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了FionaAllen退休后重拾以前的興趣，參加了一個民間戲劇研討

會，隨著興趣的增長，艾倫成立了她的團體一一梅多斯戲迷一一作為一個慈善組織，以吸引更廣泛的支持

和捐贈。

24題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段"Hernewlyfreetimereignited（重新點燃）adecades-oldspark.41Istillwantedtodo

somethingwithmybrainsoIwentbacktouniversitytostudytheatreandperformance,5,saysAllen.（她最近的空

演，“艾倫說）”可知，艾倫退休后學習戲劇和表演是為了重拾興趣。故選B。

【25題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段“Thatyear,shetookpartinafolkdramaworkshopanddiscoveredmumming,an

ancientmaskedform,inwhichmaleactorstravelthroughvillages,performingsimpleplays,ofteninexchangefor

foodorshelter.C4Ifsasimplerstorythanconventionalplays.Ithasonecentralconflictratherthanslowcharacter

興創(chuàng)作，因為戲劇總是為當?shù)赜^眾量身定制，“艾倫說）”可知，第二段主要講了戴面具化裝表演

（mumming）的特點。故選A。

[26題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞后文“AswellastouringcentralScotland,thegroupwenttotheInternational

MummingSymposiumandUnconventioninGloucestershirein2016,andlearnedmoreaboutthehistoryoffolk

drama.（除了在蘇格蘭中部巡回演出外，該團隊還參加了2016年在格洛斯特郡舉行的國際戴面具化裝表演

研討會和非大會，并了解了更多關于民間戲劇的歷史）”可知，這個團隊得到了很大發(fā)展，去了很多地方演

出。故劃線詞意思是“發(fā)展”，故選A。

【27題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Thedrivetokeepgoingisinspiredbyanexperiencemorethan30yearsago."I

uWheneverdoubtcreepsin（不知不覺產生）,Allenrecallsthatencounterandfeelsforcedtocontinuegrasping

lifewithbothhands.（每當疑慮襲來時，艾倫就會回憶起那次遭遇，并感到被迫繼續(xù)用雙手抓住生活）”可推

知，艾倫想通過這次相遇告訴我們：我們應該努力活在當下。故選D。

【答案】28.B29.D30.D31.A

【解析】

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。一項研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，海鷗有能力觀察人類的食物偏好，并利用這些信息找到類似

的食物。文章認為，這表明需要采取措施避免人類和海鷗之間的緊張關系。

[28題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段"Inthelatestwork,Feist,abiologistattheUniversityofSussexandhercolleagues

tapedgreen（saltandvinegar）andblue（cheeseandonion）packetsofcrispstobricksandplacedthemafewmetres

fromgullsonanotherwiseclearpatchofBrightonbeach.Thescientiststhenbacked5metresandfilmedthebirds'

behaviour.Insomecases,theresearcherssimplylookedatthecamera,whileinotherstheypecked（啄）agreenor

bluebagofcrisps.（在最新的研究中，薩塞克斯大學的生物學家費斯特和她的同事們把綠色（鹽和醋）和藍色

（奶酪和洋蔥）的薯片包粘在磚頭上，然后把它們放在離海鷗幾米遠的布萊頓海灘上?？茖W家們退后5米，

拍攝了這些鳥的行為。在一些情況下，研究人員只是看著相機，而在另一些情況下，他們啄著綠色或藍色

的薯片袋。）”可知，本段主要描述并介紹了研究的具體開展過程。故選B。

【29題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中“Butwhentheresearchersweresnackingoncrisps,48%ofthebirdshoppedoverto

checkoutthepackets.Nearly40%ofsuchapproachesendedwithgullspeckingatthecrisppackets,andofthese,

95%weredirectedatthesamecolourpacketasthescientistwaseatingfrom.（但是當研究人員吃薯片的時候，

48%的鳥會跳過去查看包裝。近40%的這種方法最終以海鷗啄食薯片包裝袋告終，其中95%的海鷗啄食的

是與科學家吃的相同顏色的包裝袋。）”可知，通過研究發(fā)現(xiàn)5%的海鷗啄食的是與科學家吃的相同顏色的

包裝袋即海鷗通過觀察人類來選擇吃什么。故選D。

[30題詳解】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞前面的內容“Theyarestillabletoobservewhatweeat（它們仍然能夠觀察我們吃什

么）”可知，此處指海鷗能夠觀察到人們吃什么，這將告知它們區(qū)分廢物、垃圾。因此劃線詞指代的是“海

鷗觀察人類零食的行為”。故選D。

[31題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中“Knowingthismayhaveimplicationsforhowwereducenegativeinteractions

betweenhumansandgulls,asweseemtobeunconsciouslyteachinggullstoexplorenewfooditems.（T解這一點

可能會對我們如何減少人類與海鷗之間的負面互動產生影響，因為我們似乎在無意識地教會海鷗探索新的

食物。）”可知，DrGoumas認為通過該研究發(fā)現(xiàn)可能會對我們如何減少人類與海鷗之間的負面互動產生影

響，故推測DrGoumas認為該研究是有價值的。故選A。
