恢复。故选B项。31.推理判断题。根据文章最后两句话“Lifeinthetropics,henotes,isadaptedto‘quiteanarrowrangeoftemperatures.Sothat’swherethingscangetreallymessy.Wecanhavecompleteshiftsintropicalsystems.’（他指出，‘热带地区的生物适应的温度范围相当狭窄。这就是事情会变得非常混乱的地方。我们可以看到热带系统的完全转变’）”可知，EricOliver对热带海域的热浪是很担心的。故选A项。阅读D【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型材料，柔软结实还能导电，可以把运动服变成智能的健康监测设备。32.细节理解题。根据第一段首句“AgroupofresearchershasdevelopedanewmaterialwhichisassoftascottonbutasstrongasKevlarandasconductiveasmanymetals.(一组研究人员已经开发出一种新材料，它像棉花一样柔软，却像凯夫拉一样坚固，还和许多金属一样导电)”可知，这种材料和金属一样具有导电性。故选C项。33.细节理解题。根据第三段“TheRiceUniversitylabfirstdevelopedcarbonnanotubefiberin2013,andhasstudieditsuseinmedicaloperations,suchasincochlear(耳蜗的)implantsforhearinglossandtorepairdamagedhearts.(莱斯大学实验室于2013年首次开发了碳纳米管纤维，并研究了其在医疗手术中的应用，如用于听力损失的人工耳蜗植入和修复受损的心脏)”可知，最初的时候，这种材料曾用于为听力受损的病人植入人工耳蜗手术过程。故选C项。34.推理判断题。根据最后一段OliverDewy所说“Youjustdon’tfindsoft,flexible,thread-likematerialsthatarecomfortabletothetouch,thatyoucanworkwith,thatyoucanbuildabridgeoryoucanbuildapowerlineoutof,butyoucanalsorunitthroughasewingmachine.......Nothingelsebehaveslikethis.(你不仅找不到这样柔软、有弹性、像线一样摸起来舒服的材料，可以用它来工作，你可以用它来建一座桥或者你可以用它来建一条电线，而且你也可以用缝纫机缝制......没有其他东西像这样)”可知，OliverDewy对这种材料给予高度评价，非常赞赏，认为这种材料用途很广，有点很多，最重要的是可以做成线，用缝纫机可以把它做成衣服，再没有别的像这样好的材料了。故选A项。35.主旨大意题。第一段介绍了一种新材料，结合第二段“Theso-called“carbonnanotube(纳米管)threads”worksimilarlytothewiresinanEKG(心电图)monitoringdevice,whichmeasuresheartrhythmstodetectheartconditions.Butinsteadofhavingtobepatched(贴上)ontotheskin,theycanbesewnintoaT-shirtandwornlikenormalathleticclothes,accordingtoanewstudyfromresearchesataRiceUniversityBrownSchoolofEngineeringlab.(所谓的“碳纳米管线”工作原理类似于心电图监测设备中通过测量心律来检测心脏状况的电线。但是，根据莱斯大学布朗工程学院实验室的一项新研究，它们不需要贴在皮肤上，而是可以缝在T恤上，像普通的运动服一样穿着)”可知，本文主要介绍一种新材料，这种新材料可以做成线，织在衣服中，从而可以检测心脏状况。故选D项。阅读七选五【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章列举了在线教育或远程教学的优势。36.根据前文“对于美国70万的孩子来说，他们不用早起去上学的梦想实现了”又根据空白处后面的“Thiskindoflearninghasdifferentnames:onlinelearningordistancelearning.（这种学习有不同的名字：在线教育或远程教育）”可知，空白处应是孩子们通过网络的新的学习方式，与D项呼应。故选D项。37.根据空白处后面的句子“Flexibilityisthemainadvantage”以及下一段的“Anotheradvantage”可知，此处的意思应该为“网上学校对学习者有很多好处”。故选A项。38.根据空白处前面的句子“MostonlineschoolsteachthesamebasicclasseslikeEnglish,math,science,andhistory.”可知，空白处应该列举另外一些学校开设的课程名称。分析选项可知，F项里的also、specialized(与文章中basic对应)以及专业课名称都与空白处前面的句子项呼应。故选F项。39.根据空白处前面的句子“Someonlineschoolshaveliveclasstimeswherestudentscancallandtalkwiththeteacherdirectly.”以及本段第一句话中的“learningtools”可知，此处应该是通过某种工具在网上进行在线活动，与E项中的“onlineclubswherekidscantalkabouttheirhobbies.”相呼应。故选E项。40.根据空白处前面的句子可知，我们可以通过电脑科技干很多事。根据空白处后面的句子可知，自2012年以来，至少有38个州有自己的在线学校或制定了学生入学规则。空白处需要填一个句子承上启下,C项“几乎我们生活的每一部分都受到它的影响，学校也不例外”符合文意。故选C项。完形填空【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。快到97岁的GwenErickson开始饲养美国最受欢迎但濒临灭绝的一种蝴蝶——帝王蝶。41.考查动词词义辨析。句意：去年她设法养了27只蝴蝶，今年增加到61只。A.steal偷；B.donate捐赠；C.keep饲养；D.photograph拍照。根据上文中的“shebeganraisingoneofAmerica’smostpopular,yetendangeredbutterflies—themonarchbutterfly(帝王蝶).”可知，此处指的是饲养帝王蝶。故选C项。42.考查名词词义辨析。句意：去年她设法养了27只蝴蝶，今年增加到61只。A.number数量；B.size尺寸；C.range范围；D.variety种类。根据上文中的“...27butterflieslastyear”和下文中的“...hasgoneupto61.”可知，说明帝王蝶的数量增加了，故选A项。43.考查形容词词义辨析。句意：整个过程有点耗时。A.money-saving省钱的；B.labor-demanding需要体力的；C.energy-efficient节能的；D.time-consuming耗时的。根据下文中“...beginningwithcollectingeggsfromthemilkweedleavesthatgrowinherbackyard.FourdaysafterEricksonplacedtheeggsinjarsonherlivingroomtable,thecaterpillar(毛毛虫)appeared,andthen,withinseveralweeks,formedachrysalis(蛹).”整个孵化过程可知，整个过程有些耗时。故选D项。44.考查动词短语词义辨析。句意：两周后，美丽的蝴蝶出现了。A.spedup加速；B.turnedup出现，来到；C.wokeup唤醒；D.grewup成长；根据上文中“...beginningwithcollectingeggsfromthemilkweedleavesthatgrowinherbackyard.FourdaysafterEricksonplacedtheeggsinjarsonherlivingroomtable,thecaterpillar(毛毛虫)appeared,andthen,withinseveralweeks,formedachrysalis(蛹).”讲述的整个孵化过程可知，此处说明帝王蝶孵化出来了。故选B项。45.考查形容词词义辨析。句意：随后，Erickson将蝴蝶放飞到野外，但有一对似乎不太愿意离开它们有爱的家，它们陪在老人身边，在房子里飞来飞去。A.impatient没有耐心的；B.delighted高兴的；C.surprised惊讶的；D.unwilling不情愿的。根据上文中“Ericksonthenreleasedthebutterfliesintothewild,butacoupleseemed...”中的but以及“...toleavetheirlovinghome”可知，释放帝王蝶到野外时，有两只蝴蝶不愿离开。故选D项。46.考查动词词义辨析。句意：随后，Erickson将蝴蝶放飞到野外，但有一对似乎不太愿意离开它们有爱的家，它们陪在老人身边，在房子里飞来飞去。A.accompanied陪伴；B.attended参加，出席；C.greeted问候；D.impressed使……印象深刻。根据上文中“Ericksonthenreleasedthebutterfliesintothewild,butacoupleseemedalittle____5____toleavetheirlovinghome...”以及下文中的“...byflyingaroundthehouse.”可推断，帝王蝶陪着老人不愿离开。故选A项。47.考查名词词义辨析。句意：Erickson还记得她第一次尝试饲养蝴蝶的情景，她说她希望这能让她的孙子孙女们对这些美丽的昆虫产生兴趣。A.flies苍蝇；B.pests害虫；C.butterflies蝴蝶；D.bees蜜蜂。根据全文语境及第一段中的“AsGwenEricksonapproached97,shebeganraisingoneofAmerica’smostpopular,yetendangeredbutterflies...”并结合全文语境可知，此处为第一次养蝴蝶。故选C项。48.考查动词词义辨析。句意：Erickson还记得她第一次尝试饲养蝴蝶的情景，她说她希望这能让她的孙子孙女们对这些美丽的昆虫产生兴趣。A.regain恢复，重新获得；B.develop培养；C.remove清除；D.express表达。结合语境及下文中的“...aninterestinthesebeautifulinsects.”可知，此处为培养兴趣。故选B项。49.考查名词词义辨析。然而，最后是她发现了养蝴蝶的乐趣。A.decoration装饰；B.fossil化石；C.herb香草；D.pleasure快乐。根据上文中的“...aninterestinthesebeautifulinsects.”可知，此处指的是老人找到了养蝴蝶的乐趣。故选D项。50.考查动词词义辨析。句意：Erickson不喜欢谈论她自己和她所做的事情，但这次她这么做了，因为她想鼓励其他人关心这个濒危物种。A.allow允许；B.encourage鼓励；C.arrange安排；D.invite邀请。根据下文中的“Happily,afriendandhersonhavejoinedherinhernew-found____11____.”可知，该处为鼓励其他人关心这
