mazingabilitytogoforlongperiodsoftimewithoutfoodorwater...”可知本段主要介紹了駝峰的功能。故選C。6．推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Whenlifeisgood,andthereisplentytoeatanddrink,acamel’shumpcangrowtoasbigas40kilograms”可知當(dāng)生活很好，有充足的食物和飲料時(shí)，駱駝的駝峰可以長(zhǎng)到40公斤大，可見駝峰的重量取決于飲食條件。故選D。7．詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“Camelsarelikesponges.Theycantakeinmorethan130litresofwaterinoneshortdrink”可知是像海綿一樣，可以吸水，故此處劃線部分意為“海綿”。故選A。8．推理判斷題。根據(jù)“acamel’shumpcangrowtoasbigas40kilograms”“theycancontinuetoliveforweekswithoutfoodandupto10dayswithoutwater.”“Theycantakeinmorethan130litresofwaterinoneshortdrink”以及“Afteralongtrekacrossthedesertcarrying100kilogramsormore,acamelcanloseupto150kilogramsofweight.”可知這些數(shù)字更好地描述了駱駝的情況，即為了更準(zhǔn)確地解釋事實(shí)。故選A。9．主旨大意題。本文主要介紹了駱駝的駝峰的作用以及為什么駱駝可以在沙漠中生活，即駱駝在沙漠中有一套完美的生活系統(tǒng)。故選D。10．D11．D12．A13．C14．B【導(dǎo)語】本文進(jìn)行一個(gè)研究，研究結(jié)果表明人類可以通過聽雞的叫聲來判斷它是高興還是悲傷。10．推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Inrecentyears,scientistshavedoneresearchaboutthefeelingsofcows,frogsandpandas....Itsaysthathumanscantellwhetherachickenishappyorsadbylisteningtoitscalls.”可知，空前提到牛、青蛙和熊貓，空后提到雞，選項(xiàng)D“一項(xiàng)新的研究將雞加入了這個(gè)名單”符合語境，故選D。11．推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Whenthechickenssawfoodbehindthedoor,theyseemedhappyandproducedfastandloudsounds”可知，當(dāng)雞看到門后有食物時(shí)，它們似乎很高興，并發(fā)出快速而響亮的聲音。選項(xiàng)D符合“快速而響亮的聲音”這一描述，故選D。12．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Therecordingswereplayedto194volunteers.”可知，這些錄音播放給194名志愿者聽，所以志愿者們是通過聽雞叫來幫助這項(xiàng)研究，故選A。13．詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“Somescientistsarealreadyworkingonasmartcomputerprogramthatcanidentifychickens’feelings.”可知，一些科學(xué)家已經(jīng)在研究一種可以……雞的情感的智能計(jì)算機(jī)程序。聯(lián)系前文可知，是為了識(shí)別雞的情感，故選C。14．最佳標(biāo)題題。本文介紹研究結(jié)果表明人類可以通過聽雞的叫聲來判斷它是高興還是悲傷，選項(xiàng)B“快樂的雞，悲傷的雞”符合主題，故選B。15．D16．A17．A18．B19．B【導(dǎo)語】本文主要介紹綠色建筑的相關(guān)內(nèi)容。15．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Agreenbuildingisdesigned(設(shè)計(jì))inawaythatisnotharmfultotheenvironment.”可知，綠色建筑是以對(duì)環(huán)境無害的方式設(shè)計(jì)的。故選D。16．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Therearemanywaystosaveenergy.Architectscandesignbuildingstousenaturallight.”可知，建筑師利用自然光來設(shè)計(jì)建筑物是為了節(jié)約能源，故選A。17．詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“Tosavewater,greenbuildingscanhaveareasontheroofstocollectrainwater.Kitchensandbathroomscanhavesinks(洗池)andtoilets(馬桶)thatconservewater.”可知，為了節(jié)約用水，綠色建筑的屋頂上可以有收集雨水的區(qū)域，廚房和浴室可以有洗池和馬桶，所以是可以用洗池和馬桶來節(jié)約水，劃線單詞表示“節(jié)約”。故選A。18．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容“AnofficebuildingcalledCH2inMelbourne,Australia,useswindandsolarpower.AculturalcenterinLondon,England,ismadefromrecycledtraincarsandispoweredbysolarandwindpower.TheAcademyofSciencesbuildinginCaliforniaintheU.S.hasrecycledmaterials,solarenergy,andahuge‘livingroof’ofplants.AtempleinThailandismadeoutofonemillionrecycledglassbottles!”可知，作者通過舉例支持第三段的主旨，故選B。19．最佳標(biāo)題題。本文主要介紹綠色建筑的相關(guān)內(nèi)容，強(qiáng)調(diào)環(huán)保，所以B項(xiàng)最適合做標(biāo)題。故選B。20．C21．D22．C23．B24．C【導(dǎo)語】本文主要介紹利用自然界的跡象來預(yù)報(bào)天氣。20．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Aredskyatsunsetmaymeanthatthereareclearskiestothewest,wherethesunsets.Aredskyatsunriseusuallymeansthattheclearweatherhasalreadypassed,sostormsmightbecoming.”可知，日落時(shí)的紅色天空可能意味著太陽落山的西方天空晴朗。日出時(shí)天空呈紅色通常意味著晴朗的天氣已經(jīng)過去，因此暴風(fēng)雨可能即將來臨。所以這句諺語是關(guān)于天氣的跡象，故選C。21．詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“Buttoday,meteorologistssendexactforecastsfurtherinadvance(提前).”可知，提前發(fā)布準(zhǔn)確的預(yù)報(bào)的應(yīng)該是氣象學(xué)家，故選D。22．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Inthe5thcenturyBC,theGreekssentoutforecaststosailors....Luckily,mostofuscansimplylookonthesmartphoneorturnontheTVtofindoutwhatkindofweatheriscoming.”可知，希臘人利用自然界的跡象來預(yù)報(bào)天氣，氣象學(xué)家使用科學(xué)儀器研究世界各地的天氣狀況并做出預(yù)測(cè)，也可以看一下智能手機(jī)或打開電視來了解天氣。所以作者在第二段通過介紹不同的天氣預(yù)報(bào)方法展開他的觀點(diǎn)
