【答案】第1题:D

第2题:C

第3题:A

第4题:C

【解析】1.细节事实题。定位到“Gasmoleculesanddustparticlesintheatmosphereabsorbandscattersunlightandpreventsomewavelengthsofthelightfromeverreachingtheground.大气中的气体分子和尘埃粒子吸收和散射阳光，阻止某些波长的光到达地面。”可知D项“地球的大气层干扰阳光。”符合题意。

2.细节事实题。由本文的最后一段，“AlthoughSolarMax'sdatahaveindicatedaslowandsteadydeclineintheSun'soutput,somescientistshavethoughtthatthesatellite'sagingdetectorsmighthavebecomelesssensitiveovertheyears,thusfalselyindicatingadropinthesolarconstant.尽管SolarMax的数据显示，太阳的产出在缓慢而稳定地下降，但一些科学家认为，随着时间的推移，卫星上老化的探测器可能变得不那么敏感，从而错误地显示出太阳常数的下降。”卫星探测器由于历经时间较长，对太阳常数的敏感度有所下降。可知C项“SolarMax的探测器变老旧了”符合题意。

3.推理判断题。由文章最后一段第一句“Long-termvariationsinthesolarconstantaremoredifficulttodetermine.太阳常数的长期变化更难确定。”可知对太阳常数测量的尝试被认为是持续的一种研究过程，因此科研人员想要测量太阳常数的努力还需要继续。A项符合题意。

4.主旨大意题。本篇文章作者主要阐述的是在科学家研发出太阳卫星后，可以对太阳常数的恒量测出比较精确的值，但是测量的过程中有其他外界因素的干扰，从而导致测量结果不是那么准确。可知C项“测量太阳常数的变化”正确。

B.bolsteredby

C.bolsteredby

D.challengedby

【答案】A

【解析】考查动词词组辨析。underminedby被推翻。bolster支持，支撑。confirm确认，确定。challenge挑战。句意：古生物学家认定泛大陆早期岛屿的气候是恒定的，而计算机模拟表明岛上的温度整年都处于变化中。这结果推翻了之前的认定。根据句意可知A项符合题意。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:A

第4题:B

【解析】1.判断推理题。关于lead铅的描述在文章出现多次。A选项“城市土壤中的铅含量比农村高”对应文章第一段第二句“Becauseofpollution,however,theamountsarehigherthecloseryougettocitiesandtowns.然而，由于污染，你离城镇越近，污染的数量就越高”；B选项“土壤天然含铅”对应第一段第一句“Soilnaturallycontainsharmlessamountsoflead土壤中天然含有无害量的铅”；D选项“植物修复的过程可能无法从土壤中去除铅”对应文章最后一段最后一句“ButProfessorRosensaystheprocessiscomplexandmaynotwork但罗森教授表示，这个过程（植物修复）很复杂，可能行不通”。C选项“不应在含铅量高的土壤中种植食物”与原文不符合，第一段最后说到“Butexpertssaythisshouldnotstopgardenersfromgrowingfoodiftheytakesafetymeasures但专家表示，如果采取安全措施，这（土壤中含有金属）并不会妨碍园丁种植食物”。

2.事实细节题。题干关键在于“anincreasedconcernaboutlead对铅的担忧日益增加”，原因在第五段中“concernsaboutleadhaveincreasednowthatmorepeopleareplantinggardens随着越来越多的人开始种植花园，人们对铅的担忧也与日俱增”。A选项“种植花园的人数在增加”符合题意。

3.判断推理题。铅含量最低的植物就是文中说到的最不吸收铅的植物，第六段说到“goodchoicesforthegardenincludetomatoes,peppers,beansandokra.Amongtheplantsthatcanabsorbmorecontaminants,theysay,arerootcrops,leafyvegetablesandherbs菜园里的好选择包括西红柿、辣椒、豆子和秋葵。他们说，能吸收更多污染物的植物包括块根类作物、多叶蔬菜和草本植物”，对比选项可知A选项“茄子”不属于块根类作物，也不是蔬菜和草本植物，因此A选项正确。

4.主旨大意题。文章第一段最后一句说到“thisshouldnotstopgardenersfromgrowingfoodiftheytakesafetymeasures如果采取一些安全措施，这种情况（土壤含金属）不应该阻止种植者去种食物”，下面几段都在重点讲应对土壤中出现更高含量有害金属的方法，因此本文主旨与B选项“如何应对菜园土壤中铅含量过高的问题”相关。

17.单选题

）styleofthetimesandtheimpulsesthatwouldtransformChinesecontemporaryart.

问题1选项

A.iconoclastic

【答案】A

【解析】考查名词和形容词词义辨析。iconoclastic打破旧习的；偶像破坏的；heterodoxy异端，异端邪说；recluse隐居的；phantasmal幻影的；幽灵的；空想的。句意：这位伟大的艺术家所作的这两幅画体现了这个时代（

）风格和将彻底改变中国当代艺术的冲动。由theimpulsesthatwouldtransformChinesecontemporaryart.这句中的transformChinesecontemporaryart“彻底改变中国当代艺术”可知空格处所填单词应具有打破旧习的意思，故答案为A。

）theexam.

C.flunked

D.redeemed

【答案】C

【解析】考查动词词义辨析。reassessed对······再评价；disdained鄙视，蔑视；flunked放弃，失败；redeemed赎回，恢复。句意：当老师发现他班上有一半的学生放弃了考试的时候，他的自尊心受到严重打击。由前后语义可知空格处所填单词为贬义词，与考试搭配的最合适的选项是C项。

19.写作题
