62.B

63.D

64.B本篇为说明文。介绍了一种叫采采蝇的昆虫，可以传播疾病。这种病叫＂昏睡病＂，这种病随着进展会让患者越来越疲倦，如果不治的话可能会使人丧命。尽管目前人们已逐渐掌握它的特点，但也不可忽视。61.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Itisnotlikeamosquito,whichcanputitsthinmouthpartdirectlyintoyourblood,”可知，它可以把它的薄薄的嘴直接塞进你的血液里的是mosquito，而不是tsetsefly，因此A项错误；根据文章第二段首句＂Tomakemattersworse,severalspeciesoftsetseflycantransmitdiseases＂可知，采采蝇的severalspecies会传播疾病，而不是allspecies，因此B项错误；根据文章第一段中＂thetsetsefly’smouthhastinysaws＂可知，采采蝇的嘴巴有tinysaws，而不是largersaws，因此D项错误；根据文章第二段＂severalspeciesoftsetseflycantransmitdiseases.Oneofthemostdangerousisaparasitethatcauses‘sleepingsickness’,＂可知，采采蝇可以传播一种寄生虫，导致“昏睡病”因此C项正确。62.推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Oneofthemostdangerousisaparasitethatcauses‘sleepingsickness’,or‘humanAfricantrypanosomiasis’togiveititsofficialname.”可知，sleepingsickness的学名是humanAfricantrypanosomiasis，而不是humanAmericantrypanosomiasis，因此A项错误；根据文章第七段首句＂sleepingsicknessisnolongerasdeadlyasitoncewas.＂可知，现在昏睡病已经不像过去那样致命了，因此C项错误；根据文章第三段首句＂sleepingsicknesshasoftenbeenneglectedbymedicalresearchers.＂可知，昏睡病常常被医学研究者忽视，因此D项错误；根据文章第二段最后一句＂Withouttreatment,aninfectionisusuallyfatal.＂可知，如果不加以治疗，它可能是致命的，因此B项正确。63.推理判断题。根据文章第八段最后一句“TheWHOhopesthediseasewillbecompletelyeliminatedby2020.”可知，世卫组织希望到2020年完全消灭这种疾病，只是希望，并非确定2020年可以完全消灭，因此A项错误；根据文章倒数第二段“aseriesofnewstudieshaveshownthattheparasiteismorecomplicatedthanpreviouslybelieved.”可知，一系列新的研究表明，寄生虫比以前认为的要复杂得多，文章中并未提及引起昏睡病的寄生虫现在很容易被发现，因此B项错误；根据文章最后一段＂T.bruceiparasitescanreadilybedetectedinthebloodofitsvictims＂可知，T.brucei寄生虫很容易在受害者的血液中被检测到，而不是只能在受害者的血液中检测到，因此C项错误；根据文章倒数第三段中的＂Whilethisdeclinelookspositive,theremaybemanymorecasesthatgounreportedinruralAfrica.＂可知，非洲农村可能还有更多的病例未报告，因此关于“昏睡病”病例的数据可能不那么准确，故D项正确。由可以推出答案。64.标题归纳题。整篇文章介绍了采采蝇，尤其说明它可以传播一种＂昏睡病＂，这种病会让患者丧命，因此B项正确。23.阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。InAmerica，VirginiaBeachhasalltheelementsofaclassicseasideresort：brilliantbeaches，alivelyboardwalk，plentyofrestaurantsandnightspots，andamusementridessuretoappealtokids．ManybelieveVirginiaBeachisatitsbestintheoff-season，whenthetownislesscrowdedbuttheweatherisstillmild．Meanwhile，somesafetytipsshouldbefollowed，enjoyingthehappinessandexcitementthebeachoffers．Thenumberlsafetytipconcernsoceansafety：payattentiontoFlagconditionspostedonthelifeguardstands．Lifeguardspostaredflagtowarnwhentheoceanwaterisdangerous．Takethemseriously!Touristsfromland-lockedregionsareparticularlyeasilyattractedbythemagicofthewaves．However，acalmoceancanb
