【答案】32.A33.C34.A35.D

【导语】本文是说明文。研究表明，大象能感知同伴的低落情绪，且会对其进行安慰。

32.词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Elephants'responsestostressaredifficulttoexplorebecause

onehastowaitforopportunitiesforthesearisingnaturallyinthewild.（大象对压力的反应是

很难探索的，因为人们必须等待在野外自然产生的机会）”以及画线词上文“However,Joshua

Plotnik,ascientistatMahidolUniversityinThailand''中表示转折意义的however可知，大

象对压力的反应很难探究，但是JoshuaPlotnik通过观察大象自然公园里的大象克服了这

一困难。故画线词意思是“克服”。故选A。

33.推理判断题。根据第三段中“"Whenelephantsintheparkseeanelephantbehavingin

thismanner,theytypicallyrespondbyfeelingthesameemotion,MPlotniksaid,“justaswe

dowhenwatchingascarymovietogether.Ifanactorisfrightened,ourheartsraceandwe

象看到一头大象有这种行为时，它们通常会产生同样的情绪反应，”普洛特尼克说，“就像

我们一起看恐怖电影时一样。如果演员受到惊吓，我们的心跳就会加速，我们会伸手去拉

对方的手——这种反应被称为‘情绪传染可推知，Plotnik提到了“看恐怖电影”的情况

是为了阐明一个概念——情绪传染。故选C。

34.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“"Butmorestudiesareneeded,preferablyinwild

populations/9Plotniksaid.6iWhatisuncleariswhethertheseresponsesprimarilybenefitthe

upsetanimals,ortheres-ponders,wShermindeSilva,abehavioralecologist,said.（普洛特尼

克说：“但还需要更多的研究，最好是在野生种群中进行。”行为生态学家ShermindeSilva

说：“目前尚不清楚的是，这些反应主要是对不安的动物有利，还是对反应者有利。”户可知，

该研究还是有一定的局限性的。故选A。

35.主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Now,scientistshaveshownthatAsianelephantsdoindeed

getupsetwhentheyseeothersintrouble,andtheyreachouttocomfortthem.Elephants,

thus,jointhelistofotheranimals,includingdogs,wolvesandsomebirds,whichhavebeen

它们会伸出手来安慰它们。因此，大象加入了其他动物的行列，包括狗、狼和一些鸟类，

它们都被证明会这样做）”和下文的研究发现可知，本文主要讲述的是大象能感知同伴的情绪

并给予安慰。D选项“大象能理解同伴的感受”最符合文章标题。故选Do

【答案】36.G37.D38.C39.E40.A

【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了由于过度捕捞浅水鱼类的数量已经严重下降，以及

由此导致的后果。

36.根据上文“Peoplestillwanttoeatfish,sothefishingindustrymustlookatothersources,

especiallythedeepwatersoftheAtlantic.”（人们仍然想吃鱼，因此渔业必须寻找其他来源，

特别是大西洋的深水区）推知，选项承接上文说明以上做法导致的不良影响。故G选项“这

导致许多被捕获物种的数量急剧下降”切题。故选G项。

37.根据上文“Researchonfivesuchspeciesshowsthatnumbershavedeclinedbybetween

87percentand98percent.”（对五种这样的物种的研究表明，数量下降了87%到98%）可

知，数量下降到了一定程度，我们便称为它们为“极度濒危”物种。故D选项“这使得它们被

归为"极度濒危"物种"切题，this指代上文提到的“numbershavedeclinedbybetween87

percentand98percent.”。故选D项。

38.根据上文“Deep-seafishtakealongtimetoreproduceandnormallyliveformanyyears.”

（深海鱼类需要很长时间繁殖，通常可以活很多年）根据下文“Theaveragesizeof§uch尔h

alsodeclined,withonespeciesshowinga57percentdeclineinaveragesize.Thisisof

particularconcern,aslargefishtendtoproducemoreoffspringthansmallones."（这些鱼的

平均尺寸也在下降，其中一个物种的平均尺寸下降了57%。这一点值得特别关注，因为大

鱼往往比小鱼生育更多的后代）可知，选项承接上下文说明深海鱼类的繁殖率非常低。故C

选项“不幸的是，它们的繁殖率非常低”切题。故选C项。

39.根据下文“Thedeep-seaspecieshavebeencaughtasiftheywerethefast-breeding（快速

繁殖）fishlikesardineandherring.Itislikekillingelephantsasiftheyreproducedatthe

samerateasrabbits.”（深海鱼类被捕获，仿佛它们是沙丁鱼和稣鱼等快速繁殖的鱼类。这
