答案和解析

1〜3.【答案】A^D、B

【解析】1•【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国四个经典的公路旅行路线，以及它们

各自具有的特点和作者的推荐。

由Colo-roadTrips中的Travelersseekinginspirationcanalsoaccess...activeadventuresandhighlight

culturalopportunities.（寻求灵感的旅行者还可以在150多条科洛公路旅行路线中获得内部提示和

边行建议。灵活的路线为历史景点、积极冒险和亮点文化机会提供建议。）可知，Colo-roadTrips

的特别之处在于，游客可以获得内部提示和边行建议，即“Colo-roadTrips给游客提供适应性的

旅行计划”。故选A。

2.由TheLighthouseTrail,Maine中的Ifpossible,visittheMaineLighthouseMuseum,whereartifacts

andhands-onexhibitsforchildrenprovideanattractivebreak.（如果可能的话，参观MaineLighthouse

Museum,它为孩子们提供了一个有吸引力的休息时间。）可知，TheLighthouseTrail,Maine有利

于孩子们。故选D。

3.根据第——段中的Theclassicroadtripismorepopularthanever.Hereareseveralplacestohittheopen

road.（经典的公路旅行比以往任何时候都更受欢迎。这里有几个地方可以走上开阔的道路。）和

下文内容可知，文章介绍了美国四个经典的公路旅行路线，以及它们各自具有的特点和作者的推

荐，B项（美国流行的公路旅行）符合文意。故选B。

4〜7.【答案】B、C、D、B

【解析】1•【文章大意】这是一篇说明文，介绍了一项新的研究表明园丁可以利用植物的生物钟

来减少除草剂的使用量。

根据划线词前的pesticides（杀虫剂）andherbicides（杀虫剂和除草剂）可知，杀虫剂和除草剂在杀

死害虫和除去杂草的同时还对蜜蜂等重要授粉昆虫产生影响，会导致它们数量的减少，由此可知

划线词词义为“归咎于"，故选B。

2.根据第七段中的Manygardenersalreadyknowthatplantsdrinkinmorewaterinthemorningbecause

theirpores（气孑L）areopentotakeadvantageofearlymorningdewandwatervapour.（许多园丁已经知

道，植物在早晨喝更多的水，因为它们的毛孔是开放的，可以吸收清晨的露水和水蒸气。）&The

openporescouldalsobethereasonsthatchemicalsaremoreeffectiveatdawnandalsoatdusk.（开放的

毛孔也可能是化学物质在黎明和黄昏时更有效的原因。）可知，在清晨使用除草剂的原因是植物

上更大的毛孔使除草剂更有效地发挥作
