答案

［语篇解读］本文为说明文。主题语境为人与自然,主题语境内容为自然科学研究结果。本

文介绍了一些动物的一种奇怪的行为,即抚养与自己没有基因联系的幼崽。

1.C推理判断题。本题题干意为:从文章中我们可以推断出WiSenden的发现是。根

据第1段第2、3句（通过记录它们的生长和数量,他希望能研究它们被吃掉的风险。相反，

他看到了一些奇怪的事情）可知:WiSenden的发现是出乎意外的，故答案为C项。

2.D细节理解题。本题题干意为:在动物王国里,哪一项不是收养的理由？根据第2段第1

句（在人类世界,我们认为收养是一种无私的行为）可知:在人类世界收养是一种无私的行为，

而不是在动物王国，故答案为D项。根据第5段倒数第1、2、3句（寻找坚果是一件竞争激烈

的工作,所以并不是每个土蜻妈妈都能得到公平的份额。如果出生率不合乎标准,聪明的孩子

可能会抛弃自己的母亲,加入一个更好的群体。那与几种海鸥的行为相似,它们的孩子如果被

喂养不好,可能会离家去寻找更好的父母）可排除A、B项;根据第4段最后一句（因此,识别幼

崽能力差是“意外”收养的主要原因）可排除C项。

3.D猜测词义题。本题题干意为:第4段中画线词“vulnerable”的意思是.根据

画线词所在句子中的"toquicklyclimbinbeforefleeingfromdanger”（逃离危险前

快速爬进去）可推知画线词的意思是“弱小且容易被袭击的"，故答案为D项。

4.Λ推理判断题。本题题干意为:作者接下来极有可能谈什么？根据最后一段最后一句（但

它可以有显著的好处,不仅对被收养者,而且对收养孩子的父母）可知作者在接下来可能会谈

论对收养者的好处,故答案为A项。

答案

［语篇解读］本文为新闻报道。主题语境为人与社会,主题语境内容为信息技术创新。本文

介绍了在社交网络应用程序上出现的表情包。

1.B猜测词义题。本题题干意为:第2段中画线词“tedious”是什么意思?画线词所在句子

（传统的短信问候……）是与下句（我自己的表情包更有创意，也更个性化）进行比较的,根据

其中的"morecreativeandpersonalw可知画线词"tedious"意为"乏味的"，此意与B

项（dull）相符，故答案为B项。

2.A推理判断题。本题题干意为:最后一段中罗说的话暗示着什么？根据最后一段罗说的（诱

人的表情包每天都在出现,而用户的品味也在不断变化。对于我们设计师来说,这带来了巨大

的压力,但同时也展现了巨大的机遇）可知B、C、D三项都是他直接说出来的内容而非暗示内

容，只有A项（设计者应该迎合用户的品味）是他的话所暗示的，故为答案。

3.B主旨要义题。本题题干意为:本文的中心思想是什么？文中的关键词是memes,并非聚

焦两位设计师的个人故事，而是借助两位设计师的设计给读者呈现表情包迅速走红这一现

象,故答案为B项。
