【答案】4.C5.D6.B7.B

【解析】

这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者曾经在大城市生活得不太愉快，但在Pontevedra市执行了Lores

的命令后，这个地方以前的交通问题得到改善，人们能更好地享受到城市所提供的服务了，

同时其他一些地方也开始设立行人专区。这些城市的巨大变化可能会积极影响许多其他领导

人对城市规划的决定。

【4题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中“I'velivedinbigcities.AndIwasoftenwokenatnightand

frequentlyconcernedbythealmostconstantsoundsofcarandtruckengines.（我在大城市住过。

我经常在夜里被吵醒，经常被汽车和卡车几乎不间断的引擎声吵醒）”可知，作者在过去的

城市生活得不太愉快。故选C。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中“ItseeminglymeansIcouldhaveeverythingthatacityoffers

museumsandculture,walkingtogetgroceriesordeliciouscoffee,aquicksubwayorbusrideto

work-andpeaceandquiet.Itsoundslikethat'swhatpeopleinPontevedragotafterthiscitycarried

outitsleaderLores'orderofchanging75acresofthiscity*shistoriccenterintoapedestrian-only

place.（这似乎意味着我可以拥有一个城市提供的一切，博物馆和文化，步行去买杂货或美味

的咖啡，乘坐快速地铁或公交车去上班---和平和安静。听起来，这就是Pontevedra的人们

在这个城市执行了领袖Lores的命令，将这座城市的75英亩的历史中心变成了步行街后得

到的结果）”可知，Lores的命令让人们更好地享受城市提供的服务。故选D。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段Formerly,theareahadbeenfilledwithcars.Peopletriedtogetinand

outoftheareaasquicklyastheycould.Carswouldgetstuckintheareawhentheytriedtocrossthe

city,whileotherscircledendlesslylookingforaparkingspace,whichledtoupsetfordriversand

plentyofnoiseforpedestriansandresidents.（以前，这个地区到处都是汽车。人们试图以最快

的速度进出该地区。当汽车试图穿越城市时，会被困在这一区域，而其他人则无休止地绕着

寻找停车位，这让司机感到不安，也给行人和居民带来了大量噪音）”可知，Pontevedra的历

史中心以前被交通问题所困扰。故选B。

【7题详解】

car-freeareas.Dublin,SantaMonicaandBurlingtonhavepedestrian-onlyareas,too.Thesecities'

息是，Pontevedra并不是唯一一家扩大无车区域的地方。都柏林、圣莫尼卡和伯灵顿也有行

人专区。这些城市的巨大变化可能会积极影响许多其他领导人对城市规划的决定）”可推知，

作者认为Pontevedra的汽车计划可能会被更多的城市采用。故选B。

【答案】8.B9.C10.C11.D

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了地球上有一种不需要呼吸氧气的生物存在，并详细介绍

了这种寄生虫。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段"Thestrange-lookingparasitedoesnotbusyitselfwithsuchsmall

mattersasbreathingoxygen.（这种外形奇特的寄生虫不会忙于呼吸氧气这样的小事。）“可知

Henneguyasalminicola无需氧气存活，故选B项。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第四段“Theyfoundthattheparasite,whichiscloselyrelatedtojellyfish,lacks

theDNAmachinerynecessaryto“breathe''--itdoesn't*havemitochondria（线粒体），oftencalled

the“powerhouse”ofthecell,becausetheyuseoxygentomakeenergy.（他们发现，这种与水母关

系密切的寄生虫缺乏“呼吸”所需的DNA机制——它没有线粒体，通常被称为细胞的“动力”,

因为它们利用氧气制造能量。）”可知线粒体的主要功能是利用氧气为细胞提供能量，故选C

项。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据第五段"Thediscoverycameassomethingofanaccidentfortheteam,who

wereexaminingthegenome（thecompletesetofgenes）ofthespecies.Whentheywentsearching

forthemitochondrialgenes,theycameupempty-handed."Ourdiscoveryshowsthatevolution

cangoinstrangedirections,,?Huchonsaid.nAerobicrespirationisamajorsourceofenergy,and

yetwefoundananimalthatgaveupthisimportantpathway."（这——发现对于正在研究该物种基

因组（全套基因）的研究小组来说是个意外。当他们去寻找线粒体基因时，他们空手而归。”“我

们的发现表明进化可以朝着奇怪的方向发展，"Huchon说有氧呼吸是能量的主要来源，但我

们发现一种动物放弃了这一重要途径。可知研究发现Henneguyasalminicola无需氧气存

活，Huchon对这一结果应该是感到很意外，很震惊的，故选C项。

【11题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第二段"Buttakeadeepbreath,becauseweneedtotalkaboutHenneguya

salminicola,atinyparasite（寄生虫）containingfewerthan100cellsthatliveswithinthemuscle

tissueofsalmon,alargefishwithsilverskinandpinkflesh.Thestrange-lookingparasitedoesnot

firstmulticellularanimalwe*vefoundthatsurviveswithoutthestuff.（但是请深吸一口气，因为我

们需要谈谈Henneguyasalminicola,这是一种寄生虫，其中含有不到100个细胞，生活在鞋

鱼，一条有着银色皮肤和粉红色肉的大鱼的肌肉组织内。看起来奇怪的寄生虫不会忙于呼

吸氧气这样的小事。不，似乎H.salminicola是我们发现的第一种没有这种物质也能生存的

多细胞动物。）”结合全文对Henneguyasalminicola的研究和介绍，可知本文详细地介绍了一

种不需要呼吸氧气就能存活的生物，D项“一种不呼吸氧气的生物”适合作为本文的标题，故

选D项。

【答案】12.B13.C14.B15.D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。主要向我们介绍了一种普遍的现象一我们对于名人的去世会感到悲伤以及

这种现象的原因，也通过专家给我们建议应该怎样来面对和利用这种悲伤。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中uAccordingtoexpertRachelO'Neill,feelinggriefafteracelebrity*s

deathiscommonbecauseweformpersonalattachmentstocelebrities.”（专家RachelO'Neill认

为，对于名人的去世感到悲伤是很普遍的，因为我们和这些名人之间有了个人的依恋。）由

此可知，RachelONeiH认为，人们对于名人的去世感到悲伤是很普遍的，很正常的，故选B。

【13题详解】

词义猜测题。根据第三段中“Whenacelebritywefeelconnectedtopassesaway,itcanfeellike

losingsomeoneclosetousbecausetheymayhavebeenintegralinsomeofourhappiestor

saddestmoments,"Catchingssays."Theymadeuslaugh,theymadeuscry,butmostimportantly,

我们感觉有关联的名人去世后，就像失去了一个关系亲密的人，因为他们在我们最幸福或者

最悲伤的时刻是integral,他们让我们笑，让我们哭，但是最重要的是，当我们最需要的时

候，他们帮助我们忘记困难的时刻。）由此可知，名人陪我们度过了生活中欢笑，痛苦的时

刻，帮助我们忘记痛苦，失去他们，我们像失去了亲密的人。结合选项，名人在我们的生活

中这些快乐和悲伤的时刻是“重要的”，故选C。

【14题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Themorewefeel,themorewegrow,howeverpainful.That's

whymedicalofficerNeerajGandotrasaysyoushoulduseyourgriefoveracelebritytoprepare

youforgriefyoumightfeeldowntheroad.（尽管痛苦，但是我们感受越多，成长越多。这

就是为什么NeerajGandotra说，你应该利用你对名人的这种悲痛让你自己为你沿途中可能

会感到的悲伤做好准备。）由此可知，NeerajGandotra建议人们应当好好利用这种悲伤的感

觉，故选B。

【15题详解】

主旨大意题。文章开头给我们介绍了因为名人的去世而悲伤的这一普遍现象，接下来的段落

分别给我们介绍了悲伤的原因。他们代表着理想；他们不仅和我们的过去有关，还和我们的

日常生活关系密切；不仅陪我们欢笑，也在痛苦中给我们安慰。当然，我们可以合理的利用

这种悲伤，为我们以后沿途遇到的悲伤做准备，也帮助我们成长。所以，这篇文章主要就是

围绕对名人的去世感到悲伤这种现象的原因展开的，故选D。

期待来了解自己的价值观。

【16题详解】

上文“Yourvaluesareyourbeliefsaboutwhat'srightandwrongandwhat'simportantinlife."说

明什么是价值观，下文“Also,theycanbelearnedthroughwatchingyourfamilyandhearingtheir

discussionsaboutthingsthey'reinterestedin.（你也可以通过观察你的家人并且听他们所感兴趣

的事情来学习价值观）”说明价值观形成的另一种途径，其中Also是关键词，与上文是递进

关系，C项“Someofthesevaluesaredevelopedinyourchildhood.（其中一些价值观是在你的

童年时期形成的。）”与下文相衔接，故选C。

【17题详解】

下文“Whenyouknowyourvaluesandmakechoicesthatareinagreementwiththem,life

“Wemakedecisionsbasedonourvalueseveryday.（我们每天都根据自己的价值观做出决

定。）”与下文相衔接。故选A。

【18题详解】

下文“Forexample,ifit'smorallyimportantforyoutoarriveatyourworkplaceintimeandfocus

onyourwork,it'llbetruethatbeinganhonestandefficientemployeeisavalueyoucarry.

（例如，如果你觉得准时上班和认真工作很重要，那么做一个诚实并且有效率的员工就是你

所持有的价值观）”举例说明了行为和价值观的关系，空处应该是总结性的一句话，F项

“Afterall,yourvalueshaveadirectimpactonyourstandardsofbehavior.（毕竟，你的价值观

直接影响你的行为标准。）”是对下文举例的总结，说明价值观对行为有直接的影响。故选

Fo

【19题详解】

上文"What'smore,yourownexperienceswillbeyourbesttoolinrealizingwhat'svaluabletoyou.

（此外，你自己的经历将是认识你价值观的最好工具）”总括性地指明了一种寻找价值观的方

法，E项“Forexample,thinkbacktoatimewhenyouwerethehappiest.（例如,回想一下你最

快乐的时光）”承接上文，并且其中的youwerethehappiest与下文Whywereyousopleased?

（为什么你如此开心）”中的sopleased相衔接。故选E。

【20题详解】

上文uBesides,don'tbeafraidtolookahead:whatvaluesdoyouwanttotoyourfriends?（止匕夕卜，

不要害怕向前看:你想给你的朋友什么样的价值观?）”说明你想呈现给别人的价值观，B项

是有价值的）”与上文承接。故选B。
