【答案】24.D25.C26.A27.B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇小说节选。多里安切断了他的脸和内心、他的外表和内在世界的联系。他的脸没有改变，

总是年轻、漂亮。但是这幅画像一用爱的画笔描绘的画像一却在讲述着真实的故事。它才是真实的多里

安.格雷——一天天变老、变丑并满怀恨意。

【24题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段中“Youmusthavesomesecret.Tmonlytenyearsolderthanyouare,andFm

wrinkledandold.Please,tellmeyoursecret.（你一定有什么秘密。我只比你大十岁，而且我又皱又老。请告

诉我你的秘密。）”可知，亨利勋爵不知道多里安保持年轻的秘密，故选择D项。

[25题详解】

细节理解题。根据第七段中"Basilpaintedtheportraitthatrainedmylife.Ican,tforgivehimforthat.

Everythingistheportraifsfault.（巴兹尔画的肖像毁了我的生活。我不能原谅他那样做。一切都是肖像画的

错。）”可知，多里安认为他所遭受的痛苦都是巴兹尔和他所画的肖像造成的，故选择C项。

[26题详解】

词句猜测题。根据上文“Ah!WhydidIprayfortheportraittogrowold,andformetostayyoung?（啊!为什

么我要祈祷这幅肖像变老，让我保持年轻？）”可知，美丽是他所崇尚的，admired“被赞美的，被敬仰

的”是worship的近义词，故选择A项。

[27题详解】

推理判断题。根据第十段中“Thenhepulledthepurpleclothofftheportrait.Hegaveacryofpain.Theportrait

wasmorehorrible.Hisfacelookedmoreevil.Therewasnewbloodonthehandandonthefeet.（然后他把画像上

的紫色布料扯下来。他痛苦地叫了一声。画像更可怕。他的脸看起来更邪恶。手上和脚上都有新血。）”以

及第十一段中"Doriantrembledwithfear（多里安吓得浑身发抖）”可知，多里安刺穿画像，是因为他觉

得这幅反应他的灵魂的画像给他带来了痛苦，故选择B项。

C

【答案】28.D29.D30.C31.B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了食物是否真的有安慰的作用，通过实验研究发现，安慰食品对改

善情绪的作用非常有限，甚至没有其它喜欢的食品更加有效，同时即使不吃食物，情绪也会因为时间流逝

而有所改善。文章提醒人们应对情绪问题采取更有效的解决方式，不要单纯依赖安慰食品来缓解自己的情

绪。

【28题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中“There9ssomefascinatingresearchthatexaminesfoodasasourceofcomfort.

However,themostinterestingthingaboutthisresearchmaybethatfoodsarefarlesscomfortingthanwetendto

believetheyare.（有一些有趣的研究将食物作为安慰的来源。然而，这项研究最有趣的地方可能是，食物远

没有我们想象的那么令人安慰。）”以及第二段中TraciMann,aprofessorofpsychology,andcolleagues

conductedaseriesofstudywithcollegestudents.Theresearchersexaminedhowmuchcomfortfoodsactually

improvemood.（心理学教授TraciMann及其同事对大学生进行了一系列研究。研究人员调查了安慰性食物

多大程度上能真正改善情绪）”可知，心理学教授TraciMann及其同事调查了多少安慰性食物能真正改善

情绪即该研究主要集中的是安慰性食物改善情绪的程度。故选Do

【29题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中“Theyhadtoassess（评估）howtheyfeltbeforeandaftertheyweresupposedly

comfortedbyicecream,pizzaorwhatevertheyhadindicatedtheytypicallyatetofeelbetter.（他彳门必须评估他彳门

在吃冰淇淋、披萨或任何他们认为能让他们感觉更好的东西之前和之后的感觉）”可知，研究者评估了学生

们在吃冰淇淋、披萨或任何他们认为能让他们感觉更好的东西之前和之后的感觉即通过比较学生在不同场

合的感受而开展的。故选D。

[30题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thetake-homemessagefromthestudies?Whilethecomfortfoodmaymakethe

personfeelbetterforthetimebeing,itdoeslittletoaddressemotionalproblems.Ofcourse,everyonecan

indulge（纵情）inacomfortfoodfromtimetotime,butoverall,aimfortheseinstancestobetheexceptionrather

thantherule.（从这些研究中得出的结论是什么？虽然安慰食物可能会让人暂时感觉好一些，但它对解决情

绪问题几乎没有作用。当然，每个人都可以偶尔放纵一下，但总的来说，这些都是例外，而不是规则）”可

知，本段告知读者安慰食物可能会让人暂时感觉好一些，但它对解决情绪问题几乎没有作用，因此缓解情

绪应该选择一些别的方法。故推断文章最后一段是作者想要给读者们提出建议。故选C。

【31题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第一段“There'ssomefascinatingresearchthatexaminesfoodasasourceofcomfort.

However,themostinterestingthingaboutthisresearchmaybethatfoodsarefarlesscomfortingthanwetendto

believetheyare.（有一些有趣的研究将食物作为安慰的来源。然而，这项研究最有趣的地方可能是，食物远

没有我们想象的那么令人安慰。）”以及通读全文可知，文章探讨了食物是否真的有安慰的作用，通过实验

研究发现，安慰食品对改善情绪的作用非常有限，甚至没有其它喜欢的食品更加有效，同时即使不吃食

物，情绪也会因为时间流逝而有所改善。文章提醒人们应对情绪问题采取更有效的解决方式，不要单纯依

赖舒适食品来缓解自己的情绪。由此可知，A选项“ComfortFoodMaynotWorkWonders（安慰食物可能不

会产生奇迹）”能够概括文章主要内容，符合标题。故选B。

D
