【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了密歇根大学研究人员的一项新研究表明，真正重要的是人们为什么做志愿者，而不是他们是否做志愿者。文章解释了研究开展的过程以及发现。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“Peoplewhogive,livelonger,studieshaveshown.Now,anewstudybyUniversityofMichiganresearchersshowsthatwhypeoplevolunteer—notwhethertheyvolunteer—iswhatreallycounts.(研究表明，付出的人更长寿。现在，密歇根大学研究人员的一项新研究表明，真正重要的是人们为什么志愿，而不是他们是否志愿)”可知，这项新研究主要发现了我们做志愿者的原因对我们的健康有影响。故选B。

【29题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“Forthestudy,Konrathandcolleaguesanalyzeddatacollectedin2023and2023aimingatthesamerandomsamplesof3,376people.(在这项研究中，康拉斯和同事分析了2023年和2023年收集的数据，这些数据针对同样的3376人随机样本)”可知，研究人员通过分析数据进行这项研究。故选A。

【31题详解】

主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Konrathsaysthecurrentfindingssuggestitmaybeapoorideatoencouragepeopletovolunteerbecauseit’sgoodforthem.“Volunteeringisincreasinglybeingencouragedinschoolsandorganizations.Somegroupssaythatit’sokaytowantbenefitsforyourself,andencouragepeopletothinkofvolunteeringasanexchangeforpersonalinterests.Somegroupsemphasizethehealthbenefitsreceivedthroughvolunteering.”Konrathadded,“Ofcourse,it’sreasonableforvolunteerstoexpectbenefitsforthemselves.Butthepotentialhealthbenefitsofvolunteeringaresignificantlyreducedifself-benefitbecomesaperson’smainmotive.”(康拉特说，目前的研究结果表明，鼓励人们做志愿者可能不是一个好主意，因为这对他们有好处。“学校和组织越来越鼓励志愿者活动。一些组织表示，为自己谋取利益是可以的，并鼓励人们将志愿活动视为个人兴趣的交换。一些团体强调通过志愿活动获得的健康益处。”康拉特补充说：“当然，志愿者期望自己受益是合理的。但如果自我利益成为一个人的主要动机，志愿服务的潜在健康益处就会大大降低。”)”可知，最后一段主要讲的是对当前发现的进一步解释。故选C。

D

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了糙米和白米的区别以及糙米的一些好处。

【32题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“Brownriceisatoughsalewhenofferednexttowhite.Despitethefactthatbrownriceishealthier,peoplepreferwhitericebecausetheythinkitjusttastesbetter,justlikefolksoptforwhitebreadinsteadofwholewheat.Whitericeandbrownricebeginasthesamething-theycomefromthesamegrain,afterall.Butwhitericeisdifferentfrombrownriceintermsofprocessing.(糙米和白米放在一起很难卖出去。尽管糙米更健康，但人们更喜欢白米，因为他们认为白米味道更好，就像人们选择白面包而不是全麦面包一样。白米和糙米一开始是一样的——毕竟它们来自同一种谷物。但是在加工方面，白米和糙米是不同的)”可推知，通过作比较引出文章的主题。故选A。

【33题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中“Thatiswhybrownriceisawholegrain.Itcontainsallpartsofthegrain,includingthefibrousbran,thenutritiousgermandendosperm.Whitericehashadthebran,thegerm,muchofthefiber,vitaminsandothernutrientsremoved.(这就是为什么糙米是一种全谷物。它包含谷物的所有部分，包括纤维麸皮、营养胚芽和胚乳。白米去除了麸皮、胚芽、大量纤维、维生素和其他营养物质)”可知，糙米加工较少。故选C。

【34题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段“Notonlydoesittakelesstimebecausethefibrousbranhasbeenremoved,butitturnsoutwithasoft,deliciousresultmoreoftenthannot.Whatmakesbrownricesohardtoprepareisthefactthatyouhavetocookitlongenoughtosoftenthebran,butnotsolongthattheinnergrainturnsmushy.(不仅因为去掉了纤维麸皮，所以花的时间更少，而且往往会做出柔软可口的结果。糙米很难准备的原因是，你必须煮足够长的时间来软化麸皮，但又不能煮得太长，以至于内部的谷物变成糊状)”可知，与糙米相比，没有麦麸让白米更容易煮。故选A。

【35题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“Thatiswhybrownriceisawholegrain.Itcontainsallpartsofthegrain,includingthefibrousbran,thenutritiousgermandendosperm.Whitericehashadthebran,thegerm,muchofthefiber,vitaminsandothernutrientsremoved.(这就是为什么糙米是一种全谷物。它包含谷物的所有部分，包括纤维麸皮、营养胚芽和胚乳。白米去除了麸皮、胚芽、大量纤维、维生素和其他营养物质)”以及第三段“Butfiberisn’ttheonlybenefitofbrownrice,Studieshavefoundthatitcanreducetheriskofdiabetes.(但纤维并不是糙米的唯一好处，研究发现它可以降低患糖尿病的风险)”可推知，对吃糙米的态度是支持。故选B。

【答案】36.C37.E38.F39.D40.B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是通过PoetryOutLoud教学生的几年里观察到的学生学习的方法。

【36题详解】

空前说“Choice.(选择。)”，是要讲的第一个所观察到的学生的行为，C选项“Thisisthefirststepoftheexercise.(这是练习的第一步。)”说明了这是第一步，也是第一个要说的内容，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选C。

【37题详解】

空前说“Learningjustonepoemwellgivesstudentsafiniteandconcentratedexperiencewithlanguage.(只要学好一首诗，学生就能获得有限而集中的语言体验。)”，空格处应该对学生学一首诗进行进一步的讲解，E选项“Andeverystudentcanlearnonepoem.(每个学生都可以学一首诗。)”中的“learnonepoem”和空前“Learningjustonepoem”相一致，重申了学生都可以学习一首诗，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选E。

【38题详解】

空前说“Studentslearnapoemthatwilllikelystaywiththemforyears,ifnotforever.Poemscontainmysteriesandcomplexitiesthatrevealthemselvesslowly-andsometimesevensuddenly-overtime.(学生们学到的一首诗可能会伴随他们很多年，甚至永远。诗歌包含着神秘和复杂，它们会随着时间慢慢地——有时甚至是突然地——展现出来。)”，这说明学诗对学生的影响是持久的，F选项“Therefore,itisalastingcoursetolearnpoems.(因此，学诗是一门持久的课程。)”说明了学诗是持久的，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选F。
