[21-23题答案】

【答案】21.A22.D23.A

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了他为丈夫做饭，但失败了的有趣经历。

[21题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“IlearnedthatlessonwhenIdecidedtotreatDoug,myhusbandofonemonth,toa

specialmeal.（我通过请我结婚一个月的丈夫Doug吃一顿特别的饭，得到了教训。）”以及通读全文可知，作

者给我们讲了一个他为丈夫做饭失败的故事。故选A项。

【22题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段“AsIwasnotexperiencedincooking,Ithoughtifadozenwasgood,twodozenwould

bebetter,soIdoubledeverything.（由于我没有烹饪经验，我认为如果一打好，两打会更好，所以我把所有东

西都翻了一番。）”可知，作者最后失败了，是因为最开始没有按照说明书的要求做。故选D项。

【23题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thehotsunhadcausedthedoughtodoubleinsizeandthefermentingyeastmade

thesurfaceshakeandsighasthoughitwerebreathing.（炎热的阳光使面团变成之前的一倍大，发酵的酵母使面

团表面颤抖，好像在呼吸。）”可知，垃圾箱中的面团让人害怕的原因是，面粉发酵导致面团好像在呼吸。

故选A项。

B

27.Whichofthefollowingcanbestserveasthetitleofthepassage?

A.AreArtisticValuesUniversal?

B.ArePopularArtsPermanent?

C.IsHumanNatureUniform?

D.IsCulturalRelativismScientific?

【24〜27题答案】

【答案】24.C25.A26.D27.A

【解析】

【分析】本文是说明文，主要介绍了根据文化相对主义，艺术作品在永恒受欢迎的原因是人类的审美具有共

同性，并且就此展开说明。

【24题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段第一句话Thevaluesofartisticworks,accordingtoculturalrelativism（相对主义），are

simplyreflectionsoflocalsocialandeconomicconditions.可知根据相对主义，艺术作品就是把艺术的价值与当

地的社会经济条件结合在一块，故选C项。

【25题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，在日本的音乐厅里发现莫扎特，就像在巴黎的画廊发现日本画家弘之治

一样，这并不罕见。因此推断，提到这些艺术家是为了说明艺术作品可以超越国界，故选A项。

【26题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话Ina1757essay,thephilosopherDavidHumearguedthatbecause^thegeneral

principlesoftasteareuniform（不变的）inhumannature,Mthevalueofsomeworksofartmightbeessentially

permanent.可知David认为由于“品味的一般原则在人性中是不变的“，某些艺术作品的价值可能本质上是永

恒的。所以一些艺术是可能会永生的，故选D项。

【27题详解】

主旨大意题。本文主要从相对论的角度来说，艺术的价值只能反应当时的社会经济，作者提出不同的观点，

探讨了艺术是普遍的观点。故A项“艺术价值是普遍的吗？”故选A。

C

[28-31题答案】

【答案】28.D29.D30.B31.C

【解析】

【分析】本文主要是关于政府对最高租金和最低工资的控制可能导致的负面结果的讨论。

【28题详解】

D细节理解题。根据第二段Theydonotinvestinnewbuildingswhichwouldalsoberent-controlled.Asaresult,

newapartmentsarenotbuilt.Manypeoplewhoneedapartmentscannotfindany.可知，对最高租金的控制可能会

引起公寓短缺的问题。故选D。

【29题详解】

D推理判断题。根据最后一段Thepredictionsmaybeconectonlyif"otherthingsareequal".Economistsdonot

agreeonsomeofthepredictions.（只有在“其他事物都是平等的”的情况下，这些预测才可能正确。经济学

家们并不同意某些预测。）可以推断出，经济决策的结果不能总是被预测到。故选D。

【30题详解】

B主旨大意题。本文主要是关于政府对最高租金和最低工资的控制可能导致的负面结果的讨论。故选B。

[31题详解】

C推理判断题。本文主要是关于政府对最高租金和最低工资的控制可能导致的负面结果的讨论。而且文章中

作者提出了很多经济学家都持反对意见，可知作者对待政府对最高租金和最低工资的控制也是持批评的态

度。A.supportive支持的;B.objective客观的;C.critical批评的;D.indifferent漠不关心的。故选C。

【名师点睛】

推理判断题是层次较高的题目，这类题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思，还要推理它们之间的

关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层

涵义。例如第2小题推理判断题。根据最后一段Thepredictionsmaybecorrectonlyif"otherthingsare

equal".Economistsdonotagreeonsomeofthepredictions.（只有在“其他事物都是平等的”的情况下，这些

预测才可能正确。经济学家们并不同意某些预测。）可以推断出，无法确认其他事物都是平等的情况下，

经济决策的结果不能总是被预测到，这就是如何理解作者的言外之意。故选D。

【32〜35题答案】

【答案】32.D33.B34.A35.B

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇议论文。新的社交机器人与以往机器人不同，他们不仅比我们聪明还有他们的个性。时代

周刊称它彻底改变了我们与机器互动的方式。但是对这种改变有的科学家赞同而有很多人也很担忧。

【32题详解】

推理判断题。由第一段中的第一句话可知，新的社交机器人与像苹果的Siri这样的助理有相同之处，但比它

们有更多功能。再由第一段中的Timemagazinehailed（称赞）therobotsthat"couldfundamentallyreshapehow

weinteractwithmachines.可知，社交机器人彻底改变了我们与机器互动的方式，可以推知以一种新的方式与

人们交流互动。故选D。

【33题详解】

推理判断题。Cozmo是第三段的举例，举例肯定是用来证明本段或者其前边的观点的。本段的中心是

**Gettingattachedtodollsandsociablemachinesisdifferent,though.（与洋娃娃相处与与社交机器相处是不同

的”。再由第三段最后一句句意“你觉得忽略了机器人而难受，但是机器人并不会感觉被忽略，或者你感觉

机器人冷落了你而难受但是机器人根本不知道它冷落了你，这些意味着什么呢？”可知，社交机器人并不

能真的跟小朋友建立感情。故选B。

【34题详解】

猜测词义题。由划线单词后的"Theyhavenotbeenborn,theydon'tknowpain,ordeath,orfear.Robotthinking

maybethinking,butrobotfeelingisneverfeeling,androbotloveisneverlove.”可知,社交机器人不知道疼，

死亡或害怕。社交机器人的思维可能是在想，但是他们的感觉从来不是感觉，他们的爱也从来不是爱。这句

话是证明划线单词所在句子的论点的，他们是会同情的机器，但是他们缺少感情，导致他们所谓的感情是假

的。所以划线单词词意为情感。A.emotion情感；B.pain疼痛；C.fear害怕；D.thinking想。故选A。

[35题详解】
