【答案】24.A25.C26.D27.B

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了McCullough经过不懈努力，实现儿时想当护士的梦想的

故事。

24.细节理解题。根据第二段“Asayounggirl,McCulloughpracticednursingbycaringforherbrother,a

desirebornoutofherintenseloveforhim.（作为一个年轻的女孩，McCullough通过照顾她的哥哥来练

习护理，这是她对他强烈的爱所产生的愿望）"和第三段""Mybeinganurseis100%inhonorofMatt.I

felttheneedtochannelmygriefandturnthattragicmomentintosomethingpositive,“McCulloughsays.

（“我成为一名护士完全是为了纪念Matt。我觉得有必要疏导我的悲伤，把那个悲惨的时刻变成积极

的东西，“McCullough说）”可知，McCullough当护士的愿望源于对她哥哥强烈的爱。故选A。

25.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Then,shetransferredtoPackardChildren'sandworkedasanursing

assistantinthePediatricTransplantCenter.（然后，她转到帕卡德儿童医院，在儿科移植中心担任护理

助理）”可知，McCullough在儿科移植中心做护理助理。故选C。

26.推理判断题。根据文章叙述的内容可知，McCullough为了实现儿时成为一名护士的梦想而坚持

不懈（persistent）的故事。根据第二段“Shewouldrubhisback,bringhimdrinks,andevenhelpadjusthis

lines.（她会帮他揉背，给他拿饮料，甚至帮他调整各种线）”和最后一段“Shefindsthetime,evenonvery

busydays,totrulybethereforpatientsandfamiliestomakethemfeellovedandweled.（即使在非常繁忙

的日子里，她也会抽出时间，真正地陪伴在病人和家属身边，让他们感到被爱和被欢迎）”可知，她

对哥哥和病人及家属关爱细致，体贴入微（considerate）。故选D。

27.推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Atage10,McCulloughgotaglimpseofherdreamjob.（10

岁时，McCullough瞥见了她梦寐以求的工作）”和最后一段中"Sheisoneofthosenursessheadmiredso

muchasachild.（她成了她小时候非常崇拜的护士之一）“可知，文章讲述了McCullough经过不懈努

力，实现儿时想当护士的梦想的故事。所以文章告诉我们：有志者事竟成。A.Godhelpsthosewhohelp

themselves自助者天助；C.Behindbadluckesgoodluck塞翁失马,焉知非福；D.Hewholaughslast

【答案】28.A29.C30.B31.D

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了研究发现小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的

风险比没有养宠物的孩子低，但是同一时期接触仓鼠的儿童患坚果过敏的风险增加。研究还发现，

接触农场的泥土、灰尘和从动物身上飞出来的各种细毛有助于儿童呼吸系统的发育。

28.词句猜测题。根据文章第一段的划线句"Yetwhenitestoconditionslikeallergies（过敏）,wetendto

thinkofpetownershipasexacerbating,notalleviatingthem.（然而，当涉及到过敏等情况时，我们往往

认为养宠物会，而不是缓解过敏。）”,句中划线词后“notalleviatingthem”可知，划线词与后文

为反义，故划线词意为“加剧”符合题意，与A选项同义。故选A。

29.推理判断题。根据第二段第二句"Thestudy,publishedWednesday,foundthatchildrenraisedwith

catsanddogsearlyinlifehada13to16%lowerriskofdevelopingallfoodallergiesthanthosewhodid

notownpets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险比没

有养宠物的孩子低13%到16%。）”可知，本文主要介绍了研究发现小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子

患各种食物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低；再根据文章第四段第二句"Indeed,thesameresearch

foundthatchildrenexposedtohamstersduringthissameperiodhadanincreasedriskofnutallergies.（事

实上，同样的研究发现，在同一时期接触仓鼠的儿童患坚果过敏的风险增加。）”可推断，并不是所

有宠物的饲养都会降低食物过敏。故选C。

30.推理判断题。根据根据第二段第二句"Thestudy,publishedWednesday,foundthatchildrenraised

withcatsanddogsearlyinlifehada13to16%lowerriskofdevelopingallfoodallergiesthanthosewho

didnotownpets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食物过敏的风险

比没有养宠物的孩子低13%至！］16%。）”及文章最后一段第一句"Inadditiontoaddingtothegrowing

bodyofscientificliteratureaboutpetsandhumanhealth,thePLOSOnealsoreinforcesearlierresearch

abouttheroleoftheenvironmentindevelopingallergies.（除了为越来越多的关于宠物和人类健康的科

学文献增添新的内容外，《公共科学图书馆•综合》还加强了早期关于环境在过敏中所起作用的研

究。）”可知，全文只是陈述《公共科学图书馆•综合》研究的内容，可推断，作者的态度是客观的。

故选Bo

31.主旨大意题。根据文章内容，尤其是第二段第二句"Thestudy,publishedWednesday,foundthat

childrenraisedwithcatsanddogsearlyinlifehada13to16%lowerriskofdevelopingallfoodallergies

thanthosewhodidnotownpets.（周三发表的这项研究发现，小时候和猫狗一起长大的孩子患各种食

物过敏的风险比没有养宠物的孩子低13%到16%。）”可知，狗和猫减少孩子的过敏。故选D。

【答案】32.B33.D34.D35.B

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。昆虫的神经系统能获取并将感官性信息转换为记忆，控制其行为来完

成如觅食这样的复杂任务，动物学家通过研究这一过程，寻求其对未来机器学习和人工智能的启发。

32.细节理解题。文章第一段讲到"Zoologistsstudiedthenervoussystemsofinsectstoinvestigate

principlesofbiologicalbrainputationandpossibleeffectsonmachinelearningandartificialintelligence

（动物学家研究了昆虫的神经系统，以研究生物大脑计算的原理以及对机器学习和人工智能的可能影

响）''最后一■段“Theresultssuggestthatthetransformationofsensoryinformationintomemoriesinthe

究结果表明，将感觉信息转化为大脑中的记忆可以激励未来的机器学习和人工智能应用于解决复杂

任务。）可知，动物学家研究昆虫神经系统的目的是研究生物大脑计算的原理和对机器学习及人工智

能的可能影响。故选B。

33.细节理解题。文章第三段讲到"Theypresentedaspecificscentinthesimulationtogetherwitha

rewardandasecondscentwithoutareward.（他们在模拟中呈现了一种特定的气味以及奖励，而第二种

气味则没有奖励。）”可知，研究过程中确实使用了两种气味，但研究方法并非对照实验，而只是测

试该模型对于有奖励的气味的反应。因此，关于研究方法的说法是不正确的是D项“研究人员提出

了两种不同的气味来进行对照实验”。故选D。

34.推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到"Theresultssuggestthatthetransformationofsensoryinformation

intomemoriesinthebraincaninspirefuturemachinelearningandartificialintelligenceapplicationsto
