【答案】4.A5.D6.C7.B

【解析】

【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻人感到害怕，

因为它们会被解读为愤怒的信号。

【4题详解】

词句猜测题。根据划线词后面的“astheyareinterpretedasasignofanger,accordingtolinguistic

experts（根据语言学家的说法，因为它们被解读为愤怒的表现）”可知，they指的是上文中的

Fullstopso由此可知,年青人认为是Fullstops在表达愤怒，所以看到Fullstops时,他们很

可能会感到害怕。故选A项。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“Fullstopsintimidateyoungpeoplewhenusedinsocialmedia

communicationastheyareinterpretedasasignofanger,accordingtolinguisticexperts.（根据语言

学家的说法，在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻人感到害怕，因为它们会被解读为愤

怒的信号）”和第二段中的“Linguisticexpertsarenowinvestigatingwhyteensinterpreta

correctly-punctuatedtextasasignalofannoyance.（语言专家正在研究为什么青少年会把标点符

号正确的文本解读为一种恼怒的信号）”可知，Z一代不喜欢发信息时用句号是因为句号被

认为是发件人恼怒的表达。故选D项。

【6题详解】

推理判断题。根据第五段中DrLaurenFonteyn的话“Makeyoursentenceanopenendandit

willmakefriendsonlineveryhappyandrelaxed.Sofullstopscouldbeunnecessaryinmost

cases.（让你的句子成为一个开放式的结尾，这会让网上的朋友们非常开心和放松。所以在大

多数情况下，句号可能是不必要的）”可推知，DrLaurenFonteyn对用fullstops来结束句子

持否定或消极态度。故选C项。

【7题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第一段"Fullstopsintimidateyoungpeoplewhenusedinsocialmedia

communicationastheyareinterpretedasasignofanger,accordingtolinguisticexperts.（根据语

言学家的说法，在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻人感到害怕，因为它们会被解读为

愤怒的信号）”及下文介绍可知，文章主要介绍了在社交媒体交流中使用“句号”会让年轻

人感到害怕的现象及原因。由此可知，B项"Doesafullstopreallyconcludeamessage?（句号

真的能结束信息吗？）”适合做本文最佳标题，用问句的方式提出话题，吸引读者通过阅读

找出答案的。故选B项。

C

【答案】8.B9.C10.D11.A

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究表明：经常打鼓的人在大脑结构和功能上与不爱音乐的人不

同，在大脑两半球之间的主要连接区域，打鼓的人的纤维较少，但较厚。同时他们的运动大

脑区域组织得更有效率。

【8题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第二段最后一句"Drummerscandothingsthatareimpossibleforuntrained

people."（鼓手可以做未经训练的人做不到的事。）可知，相比那些未经训练的人而言，这些

鼓手可以做他们不能完成的事，所以这些鼓手己经超越了他们。因而本段划线词的含义为“超

越”,选项B.“Gobeyond”，意为“超越”，符合题意,故选B。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中'Theresearcherstested20professionaldrummerswhohaveplayed

theirinstrumentforanaverageof17yearsandcunentlypracticeformorethantenhoursperweek.

TheyexaminedthemusingvariousMRIimagingtechniquesthatprovideinsightsintothestructure

andfunctionofthebrain.Theythencomparedthedatawithmeasurementsof24unmusicalcontrol

subjects.BothgroupshadloplaydrumstotesttheirabilitiesandwerethenexaminedintheMRI

scanner.”（研究人员测试了20名专业鼓手，他们平均弹奏这种乐器17年，目前每周练习超

过10小时。他们用各种核磁共振成像技术检查了他们，这些技术提供了对大脑结构和功能

的深入了解。然后，他们将这些数据与24名非音乐控制实验对象的测量结果进行比较。两

组都要敲鼓来测试他们的能力，然后在核磁共振扫描仪上进行检查。）可知，研究人员通过

敲鼓测试20名专业鼓手和24名非音乐控制实验对象的能力，然后利用核磁共振扫描仪上进

行检查，来识别训练引起的大脑变化。选项C与文意相符，故选C。

【10题详解】

细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Drummerspresentedcleardifferencesinthefrontpartofthe

corpuscallosum（月并月氐体）responsiblefbrmotorplanning.Thedataindicatedthatthedrummershad

fewerbutthickerfibersinthisimportantconnectingtract.Thisallowsmusicianstoexchange

informationbetweenthehemispheresmorequicklythanthecontrols.^^（鼓手在负责运动计划的

脱月氐体前部表现出明显的差异。数据显示鼓手在这个重要的连接部位，有较少但较厚的纤维。

这使得音乐家比控制体可以更快地在两个脑半球之间交换信息。）可以推知，在大脑中，鼓

手们处理信息的能力会更快，更有效。选项D.“Theyhavemoreefficientbrainorganization.”

（他们的大脑组织更有效率。）与文章意思相符，故选D。

【11题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Peoplewhoplaydrumsregularlyfbryearsdifferfromunmusical

peopleintheirbrainstructureandfunction.TheresultsofastudybyresearchersfromBochum

suggestthattheyhavefewer,butthickerfibersinthemainconnectingtractbetweenthebrain

hemispheres（半球）.Inaddition,theirmotorbrainareasareorganizedmoreefficiently.（经常打

鼓的人在大脑结构和功能上与不爱音乐的人不同。来自Bochum的研究人员的一项研究结果

表明，在大脑两半球之间的主要连接区域，它们的纤维较少，但较厚。此外，他们的运动大

脑区域组织得更有效率。）同时结合第三段中研究人员通过比较专业鼓手和非音乐人上的数

据，发现专业鼓手的大脑处理信息能力更有效。可知，本文主要讲述打鼓会使人的大脑区域

的组织变得更有效。所以短文的最佳标题为“打鼓能改变大脑”。故选A。

C.havemoreconfidenceD.knowothers*advantages

【答案】12.B13.A14.D15.A

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇议论文。作者认为不公平是普遍存在的现象，但不公平是有益处的。在竞

争中，你的技能和态度对结果起着重要作用。知道你可以做什么来获得优势可以决定成功和

失败。

【12题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第二段“Forexample,theearlybirdcatchestheworm.Itisunfairthatthebird

thatsleepsinmissesoutonbreakfastbutitisnicetoknowthatifitgetsupearlyitissuretogetthe

worm."（例如，早起的鸟有虫吃。睡懒觉的鸟错过了早餐是不公平的，但很高兴知道，如

果它起得早，肯定会吃到虫子。）由此可知，公平的事情通常会给你带来益处。由此可知，

划线词的意思是“有益处的东西”。故选B项。

【13题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段"Theplayingfieldisneverevenorequal.Yourskillsandattitudeplay

amajorroleintheoutcome.Knowingwhatyoucandotohaveanadvantagecanmakethe

differencebetweensuccessandfailure"（竞技场从来就不是平等的。你的技能和态度对结果

起着重要作用。知道你可以做什么来获得优势可以决定成功和失败。）根据第二段

“Unfairnessisagoodthing.Thereismoretobegainedbytheeffortwhenthingsseemunfair.Itis

truethatmanythingsintheworldareunfair.（不公平是件好事。当事情看起来不公平的时

候，努力会得到更多。的确，世界上很多事情都是不公平的。）由此判断出，竞技场的例子

是为了介绍主题。故选A项。

【14题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段"Ialwaystrytoexplaintomykidsthatcomplainingabouthowunfair

somethingiswillgetthemnowhere.Instead,makethemostoutofitandgetontheothersideof

it.”（我总是向我的孩子们解释，抱怨不公平的事情会让他们一事无成。相反，充分利用

它。）由此可知，根据作者的观点，处理不公平的最好方法是充分利用它。故选D项。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段"Youshouldlookatyourplaceintheworld.Wheredoyouwantto

befinancially,spiritually,emotionally,andphysically?Youarecreatingyourownstorywhenyou

empoweryourself."（你应该看看你在世界上的位置。你想在经济上、精神上、情感上和身

体上处于什么位置?当你赋予自己力量时，你正在创造自己的故事。）由此判断出，你被告知

要看看你在这个世界上的位置，以便使自己更好。故选A项。
