B.Positive.C.Negative. D.Unclear.【答案】27.A28.D29.C30.A【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要分析了名人做慈善的利与弊。【27题详解】词句猜测题。第一段划线词所在句“Shepointedoutthatfamousfaceshadplayedasignificantroleinraisingfundsinrecentyears,andtheirenergieshadproducedtangibleresults,suchasenablingmillionsofchildreninpoorercountriestoattendschool.(她指出，名人近年来在筹集资金方面发挥了重要作用，他们的精力产生了切实的成果，比如让贫困国家的数百万儿童上学)”中的“suchasenablingmillionsofchildreninpoorercountriestoattendschool”部分表明，名人们在慈善方面的努力取得了实在的成果，所以可以推测tangible意为“切实的，实在的”。A.Definite.确切的；B.plicated.复杂的；C.Limited.有限的；D.Temporary.暂时的。所以A选项和划线词词义最接近，B、C、D都不符合。故选A项。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Instead,themajorityofpeoplecontributebecauseofpersonalconnectionsintheirlivesandfamilieswhichmakeacharityimportanttothem.(相反，大多数人捐款是因为他们生活和家庭中的私人关系，这使得慈善对他们很重要)”可知，大多数人向慈善机构捐款是因为他们受到周围人的鼓舞。故选D项。【29题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段“Onlytwopercentofrespondentssaidtheyweremotivatedbycelebrityendorsement.Thisseemstocontradictthegeneralassumptionthatteenagersareparticularlyinfluencedbyfamouspeople.(只有2%的受访者说他们受到名人代言的激励。这似乎与一般的假设相矛盾，即青少年特别容易受到名人的影响)”可知，与一般的假设相反的是，青年人几乎不会受到名人的影响，余下内容“Onepossibleexplanationisthat…Thereisalsoasuspicionthat…Somecriticshaveaccusedthat…”则主要讲述了原因，所以第三段主要讲述青少年几乎不受名人影响的原因。故选C项。【30题详解】推理判断题。文章前面主要讲述了名人做慈善带来的切实的成果以及被夸大的现象，最后一段“Sotakingalltheseissuesintoaccount,isittimeforcharitiestorethinktheircampaignstrategiesandlookforalternativewaystoreachnewaudiences?...Thisinturnwillopenupmoreengagement,andbettertargetedcampaignswhichcanonlybenefitthosewhoreallymatter—thepeopleandanimalsthatareinneedofassistance.(因此，考虑到所有这些问题，慈善机构是否应该重新考虑他们的竞选策略，寻找其他途径来接触新的受众？……这反过来又会促进更多的参与和更有针对性的运动——这只会让真正重要的人受益——那些需要援助的人和动物)”提出慈善机构应该多方考虑，最终目的是使得真正需要的人或动物受益。所以作者是以客观的态度来分析名人做慈善这件事。A.Objective.客观的；B.Positive.积极的；C.Negative.消极的；D.Unclear.不清楚的。故选A项。DEffectivemonitoringofendangeredspeciesiskeytotheirsurvival.Studyingthemovement,rangeandhabitsofwildanimalsisessentialinordertoensuretheirhabitatremainsfreefrompoachers(偷猎者)anddevelopment.Traditionalmethodsofmonitoringwildanimals,especiallylargeones,includeradiotagging.Todothis,individualanimalsmustatfirstbecapturedsothatcollarsortagscanbefitted.OneorganisationthatadoptedthistechniquewasWildTrack.Inthelate1990s,theteamwasusingradiocollarstomonitorblackrhinoinNamibia.However,theteamsoonrealisedthatthechemicalsusedtoimmobilizetherhinoinordertofitthecollarshadanegativeimpactonfemalefertility.Notonlythatbutalargeproportionoftheradiocollarsfailedwithinthefirst6monthsandhadtobereplaced.Moreover,asanimalsgrew,thecollarswouldtighten,irritatingorevenhurtingtheanimal.Themethodwasnotonlyexpensive,butitwasalsocounterproductive,asitchangedtherhino’sbehaviour,thusinvalidating(使失效)thedatacollected.Atthesametime,theteamwasworkingalongsidelocaltrackers.Animaltrackingisoneoftheoldesthumanskills,andtheseexpertshadyearsofexperienceinidentifyingindividualanimalsbytheirfootprints.Theycouldeffectivelycreateatruepictureofindividualrhinos’activitieswithouttheuseofanyinvasivetechniques.Consequently,theteamwereinterestedtoknowwhetherthetrackers’knowledgecouldbesuccessfullytranslatedintoaneffective,puterisedtechniqueformonitoringanimalmovement.Withineachspecies,eachindividualhasitsownuniquefootcharacteristics,inthesamewaythathumanshavefingerprints.Thus,ifananimalissightedandidentifiedjustonce,andthecharacteristicsofitsfootprintsproperlyphotographedandmeasured,itsfootprintcanberecognisedwheneveritissightedagain.Ifdonerepeatedly,conservationistscandrawupadatabaseofall,oratleastasignificantproportionoftheindividualswithinthepopulation.Afterthatconservationistscanuseittoidentifyananimalanditsmovementsbyitsprint.Thedatagatheredcanbeusedforarangeofpurposes,forexampletomonitorbiodiversity.WildTrackiscurrentlyusingfootprintidentificationtechnologyinGreecetostudythepotentialeffectofalargehighwayconstructionthroughbrownbearhabitat.Identifyingananimalfromitsfootprintisnotwithoutitschallenges,however,aseachtimetheindividualplacesitsfootontheground,itleavesaslightlydifferenttrack,accordingtothetypeofgrounditiswalkingon,moisturelevelsandthewayitismoving.Inordertoaccountforthesevariations,itisnecessarytocollectseveraltracksfromeachindividual,includingimpressionsfromallfourfeet,onarangeofsurfaces.31.paredwithradiocollars,traditionalanimaltracking________.A.islessaccurateB.costsmoremoneyC.haslesssideeffectsD.dependsmoreonputers32.Accordingtothepassage,thefootprintidentificationtechnology________.A.needsmoredatatorunbetterB.developsfromradiocollarsChasnotbeenputintopracticeD.worksundercertainenvironment33.Whatdoesthepassageimply?A.Technologyholdsthekeytodevelopment.B.Traditionalskillsmakebetterconservationists.C.Animaltrackingsetsanewtrendinconservation.D.Creativityliesinthebinationoftheoldandnew.34.Whatisthemainpurposeofthepassage?A.TopresentWildTrack’sextraordinarywork.B.Toprovideanewwayofmonitoringanimals.C.Toparetwodifferentmethodsofcatchinganimals.D.Toexplainhowtoidentifyanimalsfootprintseffectively.【答案】31.C32.A33.D34.B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述为了保护濒危物种，人们采用的对野生动物的监测跟踪技术。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“Theycouldeffectivelycreateatruepictureofindividualrhinos’activitieswithouttheuseofanyinvasivetechniques.（他们可以在不使用任何侵入性技术的情况下，有效地描绘出犀牛个体活动的真实情况。）”可知，传统的动物追踪不会对动物使用侵入性技术，所以可以推断，它很少有副作用。A.islessaccurate（不太准确）和文章内容“couldeffectivelycreateatruepicture”不相符；B.costsmoremoney（花费更大）是radiocollars的特点；D.dependsmoreonputers（更多依赖电脑）文中没有提到。只有C.haslesssideeffects（有很少的副作用）可以从文章中推断出来。故选C项。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Ifdonerepeatedly,conservationistscandrawupadatabaseofall,oratleastasignificantproportionoftheindividualswithinthepopulation.Afterthatconservationistscanuseittoidentifyananimalanditsmovementsbyitsprint.Thedatagatheredcanbeusedforarangeofpurposes,forexampletomonitorbiodiversity.（如果重复这样做，自然资源保护主义者可以建立起一个数据库，包括种群中所有的，或者至少是种群中相当大比例的个体。之后，自然资源保护主义者可以用它来识别动物和它的运动印迹。收集到的数据可以用于多种目的，例如监测生物多样性。）”可以推断，足迹识别技术需要更多的数据才能更好地运行。故选A项。【33题详解】推理判断题。文章第一段和第二段前半部分主要讲述新技术radiocollars在动物监测上的作用和缺陷，故而引出了传统的动物追踪技术，第三段“Thus,ifananimalissightedandidentifiedjustonce,andthecharacteristicsofitsfootprintsproperlyphotographedandmeasured,itsfootprintcanberecognisedwheneveritissightedagain…（因此，如果一种动物只被看到和识别一次，并且正确地拍摄和测量它的脚印的特征，那么无论何时再次被看到，它的脚印都可以被识别出来……）”主要讲述动物足迹追踪技术的使用原则和人们对它的利用，文章最后一段讲述使用传统的动物足迹追踪技术也有挑战，所以我们可以看出，文章暗示要进行新旧技术的结合才能有所创新。故选D项。【34题详解】推理判断题。文章前两段主要讲述radiocollars在动物监测上的缺陷，并且引出了传统的动物追踪技术，接下来着重讲了动物脚印追踪技术的开发利用。所以文章的主要目的应该是介绍这种动物监测方法。B项“Toprovideanewwayofmonitoringanimals.（提供一种监测动物的新方法。）”符合题意。故选B项。第二节7选5（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）FalseMemoriesorParallel(平行的)Realities?Hereisamonsituation:You’retalkingwithsomeoneaboutanevent,onlytodiscoverthatyoubothrememberthingsquitedifferently.Usually,you’dputitdowntoapoormemory,butwhatifitwasn’tjustonepersonwhorememberedthingsdifferently?Whatifitwasmillions?Infactthisisn’ta“whatif”situation.It’sknownastheMandelaEffect,anditwasfirstnoticedin2009byparanormalresearcherFionaBroome.BroomewaschattingwithpeopleabouttheSouthAfricanactivistNelsonMandela,andshementedhowsaditwasthathehaddiedinprisoninthe1980s.___35___Actually,he'dbeenreleasedin1990,beepresidentofSouthAfrica,anddiedin2013.Broomewassoshockedatthisthatshestartedaninvestigation.___36___Peoplehavememoriesofmoviesthatneverexisted,andfamouswordsthatwereneverspoken.ThereisevenagroupwhoclearlyrecallseeingmapsshowingthatNewZealandwasnortheastofAustralia(it’ssoutheast).Sowhatintheworldisgoingon?___37___Ineachreality,historyisshapedbydifferentevents,andtheMandelaEffectoccurswhensomeofusshiftfromonerealitytoanother.Therefore,thosewhorememberNelsonMandeladyinginthe1980saren’twrong.They’rejustrememberingeventsfromtheiroriginalreality.Morelikely,however,isthattheMandelaEffecthastodowithhowourbrainsstoreinformation.___38___ManypeoplerememberPikachu’stailhavingablacktipontheendofit,wheninfactitwasalwaysyellow.“Aha!”youcry.“Parallelrealities!”Probablynot.Considerinsteadthatpeopleoftenignoreunfamiliardetailsandtransforminformationtomakeitmoreunderstandable.InthePikachuexample,histailmaynothaveablacktip,buthisearscertainlydo.Thus,bothhisearsandtailaremisrememberedashavingblacktips.___39___Allthingsconsidered,ifyou’restuckarguingwinsomeoneaboutwhoseversionofeventsiscorrect,itmayindeedbeeasiertoagreethatneitherofyouiswrong.Youjustefromdifferentrealities.A.Beforeweexplainlet’slookatanexample.B.Itturnsoutshewasn’tthe
