参考答案

1.MiamiBermudaMiami,Bermuda解析：此题答案见文章第一段，它介绍了BermudaTriangle的地理位置。

2.A解析：第1段第1句：Sleepisoneofthosefunnythingsaboutbeingahumanbeing—youjusthavetodoit.题目用as从句表达了原文破折号后面的原因，necessary是对原文haveto的近义表达，因此答案为了Y。

3.Exchangerates．Exchangerates．解析：加入欧盟的要求包括政府的预算赤字，对外负债，通货膨胀率，长期利率及汇率。

4.A解析：文章在第一部分的最后谈到“intheabsenceofofficialnumbers，withtheheightenedtensionsurroundingracialissues，andwiththemutualsuspicionthatexistsamongcompetingracialandethnicinterestgroups，there'slittleagreementonwhatintermarriagewillmeanforU．S．societyinthefuture”，这里提到了“由于缺乏官方数据、种族问题情势日趋紧张、相互竞争的种/民族利益集团间相互猜疑，人们对异族婚姻在未来美国社会中的影响还没有形成一致看法。”

5.imaginationimagination解析：题干关键词与原文conclusivelydiscovered同义，alienlifeforms与原文alienphysiology同义，因此将答案定位至第三个小标题Speculation：WhatMightAliensbeLike?下第一段第一句。Sincenoextraterrestriallifeformshavebeenconclusivelydiscovered，alienphysiologyliesintherealmofourimagination，据此，空格里可以填入imagination。

6.A解析：由题干中的Hedonicadaptation定位到第2段第2、3句Wetendtoadapt...endedupnohappierthannonwinners．第2句先指出一种现象，即人们会很快回到他们原先的快乐状态。第3句明确指出这种现象就是“Hedonicadaptation”，同时还举了一个例子来说明这种现象。题干相当于对这两句进行的总结归纳，与原文表述一致。另外adapt是adaptation的动词形式，可推出第2句是对Hedonicadaptation的解释。

7.A解析：文章表格中提到的集装箱的第四个优点就是它可以缩短在路上耽搁的时间。

8.A

9.MoveinformationonlineMoveinformationonline解析：第7段第1句，互联网的一大优点就是使我们可以把书面信息搬到网上。

11.NN解析：根据题干中的信息词globalaveragetemperature和27℃定位到第一个小标题下
