A.peoplehavenofaithinthemB.peoplewanttogivethematryC.theyworkverywellforseniorsD.theyhavenoeffectonpeople’shealth答案B解析推理推断题。依据第一则新闻中的“Butthesalessofarareverygood.”可知,这种药卖得很好,说明人们情愿一试。23.WhatcanwelearnfromNews2?A.ManyAmericanswillfindithardtofindajob.B.It’sveryhardforseniorstopasstheageof80.C.TheUSpopulationhasbeenincreasingrapidlysince2005.D.TheAmericanpopulationhasbeenagingrapidlysince2005.答案D解析推理推断题。依据其次则新闻中的“OfthetotalUSpopulationof378million,peopleover65yearsoldnowmakeup20%forthefirsttime.Theseniorratiowasonly4.1%bytheyear1900,and12.4%30yearsago.”可知,美国年满65岁的老人在总人口中所占的比例从2005年的12.4%增长到了2035年的20%,这说明美国人口老龄化很快。BDuetoclimatechange,Arcticiceisbreakingupearlierinthespring,anditsareaisdecreasing.ThisiscreatingproblemsforpolarbearsthatmaketheirhomesoffnorthernAlaskaandinHudsonBay.PolarbearsoffAlaskanormallyhuntandraisetheiryoungonicesheetsthatfloatontheocean.Butastheicehasmelted,thepolarbearshavebeenforcedtospendmoretimeonland.There,theyhavebeguntofrequent(常去)beaches,feedingontheremainsofwhalescaughtbynativehunters.Forpolarbears,thisfoodislessnutritiousthansealsthattheynormallycatchonicesheets.Theshrinking(削减)icehasalsoforcedmorepolarbearsintotheocean.Inthepast,theyonlyhadtoswimshortdistancesbetweenicesheets.Butastheicehasshrunk,polarbearshavebeenforcedtoswimlongerandlongerdistancesintheopenocean.Thisposesaseveredangerduringroughweather,andanincreasingnumberofdrownedpolarbearshavebeenobserved.InHudsonBay,theicebreaksupthreeweeksearlierinthespringnowthanitdid20yearsago.PolarbearsonHudsonBayfast(禁食)duringthesummer,waitingforicetoforminthefalltohunt.Everyyear,thesummergetslonger,andthebearsgetskinnier.Overthepast25years,theaverageweightofthefemalebearshasdropped68kg.Thislossaffectstheirabilitytoreproduce,andalreadythenumberofbirthshasdroppedby15percent.Unlessthebearscanlearntosurviveclimatechange,thesegiantsoftheicemayonedaydisappear.24.WhatisArcticicedoingearliereachyear?A.It’sfreezing.B.It’shardening.C.It’smelting.

B.Theirdietischanging.C.Theirhealthisimproving. D.Theirfamiliesaregrowing.答案B解析细微环节理解题。依据其次段可以看出北极熊正常状况下吃在冰面上可以捕获到的海豹,但现在由于冰的削减,它们只能以当地猎人捕获的鲸的残余物为食了。26.WhatdoesthewriterimplyaboutfemalepolarbearsinHudsonBay?A.Theyarehavingfeweryoungnow.B.Theysufferfromvarioussicknesses.C.Theydon’tneedstrongerprotection.D.Theycan’tfindenoughgoodmales.答案A解析细微环节理解题。从最终一段第四和第五两句可知,北极熊的诞生率已经下降了15%。27.Inwhichpublicationwouldyoumostlikelyfindthispassage?A.MedicalNews. B.SocietyToday.C.WildlifeJournal. D.DesignMagazine.答案C解析文章出处题。通读全篇可以发觉,文章叙述的是全球气候的变更给北极熊带来的负面影响,而北极熊属于野生动物,所以推断这篇文章最有可能摘自《野生动物杂志》。CMymother,anurseatStonyBrookUniversityHospital,workedatnightsothatshecouldcomehomeintimetosendmetoschool.She’dsleepduringthedayandbereadywhenwereturnedhomebeforeheadingoutagainintheevening.Thiswentonfor23years.Shenevercomplained(埋怨).Nomatterhowtiredshewas,shealwayshadenoughenergytobemymum.SheoftenhadtoworkonChristmas,ChristmasEveorNewYear’sEve,andsometimesThanksgiving,whichmademeupset.However,beforeholidaysshealwaysdecoratedtheinsideandoutsideofourhouse.She’dalsohavecookiesbakingintheoven,aholiday-themedmovieintheVCR,andmusicplayingthroughoutourhouseforus.Butwhenitwastimetogotowork,therewasnoroomfordebate.“Whydoyouhavetoworkonthisdayofalldays?”I’dasksadly.“Theyneedme,too,dearson,”she’drespond,compassion(怜悯)inhertone.ForalongtimeIdidn’tunderstandwhysheshouldcaresomuchaboutthosesickstrangers.Recently,asmygrandmotherbecameill,Ifoundmyselfspendingmoretimeinhospitals.ThescenesIsawinthehospitalmademeseethedifferentsideofmymother.Thenursescheckedheart,bloodandoxygenlevelstomakesurepatientswerecomfortable.Theyliftedpatientsinandoutofbedandhelpedthemtothebathroom.Beyondtheirduties,thenursesdisplayedconsiderationforeachpatient.WhatIsawhelpedmetounderstandwhymymotherwasdevotedtoheroccupation.Iwasfilledwithmoreadmirationformymother.28.Whydidtheauthor’smotherworkintheevening?A.Totakehimtoschool.B.Toenjoyamovie.C.Todecoratetheirhouse.D.Tosleepduringtheday.答案A解析细微环节理解题。依据第一段中的“workedatnightsothatshecouldcomehomeintimetosendmetoschool”可知,妈妈晚上工作,这样她能刚好回家送“我”上学。故选A项。29.Whatcanbeinferredfromparagraph2?A.Themotherlovedherpatientsmorethanherkids.B.Nursesarepaiddoublesalaryworkingonholidays.C.Theauthorwishedhismothercouldstayathomeonholidays.D.Onlypeoplewithmercyonpatientswillmakegoodnurses.答案C解析推理推断题。其次段中的“SheoftenhadtoworkonChristmas,ChristmasEveorNewYear’sEve,andsometimesThanksgiving,whichmademeupset.”和“Butwhenitwastimetogotowork,therewasnoroomfordebate.‘Whydoyouhavetoworkonthisdayofalldays?’I’dasksadly.‘Theyneedme,too,dearson,’she’drespond,compassioninhertone.”描述了作者的妈妈在假期或节日要上班,这让作者很难受。可知,作者想让妈妈在假期盼在家里陪他,故选C项。30.Theauthorreallyunderstoodhismother’sworkwhen.

A.heaskedhismothertostaywithhimduringholidaysB.helookedafterhissickgrandmainhospitalC.hesawhowtiredhismotherwasafterworkD.hehelpedpatientstothebathroom答案B解析推理推断题。依据最终两段中的“ForalongtimeIdidn’tunderstandwhysheshouldcaresomuchaboutthosesickstrangers.Recently,asmygrandmotherbecameill,Ifoundmyselfspendingmoretimeinhospitals...”以及“WhatIsawhelpedmetounderstandwhymymotherwasdevotedtoheroccupation.”可知,当作者的祖母生病时他在医院的所见所闻,才让他理解了自己的妈妈。故选B项。31.Whatisthemainideaofthepassage?A.Childrenofnursesareoftendissatisfiedwiththeirmothers.B.Nursesareparticularlybusyatworkduringholidays.C.Theauthorgainedanewappreciationofhismother.D.Theauthor’smotherlikeddoinghousework.答案C解析主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了作者的妈妈为了能接送作者上学,只上夜班。作为一名护士,她在节假日要上班,这让作者特别难受,也对妈妈不理解。但当自己的祖母生病时他在医院的所见所闻让他理解了作为护士的妈妈,从而对妈妈更加敬佩了。本文的主旨在最终一段“Iwasfilledwithmoreadmirationformymother.”。故选C项。DWalkthroughtheAmazonrainforesttodayandyouwillfinditsteamy,warm,dampandthick.Butifyouhadbeentherearound15,000yearsago,duringthelasticeage,wouldithavebeenthesame?Formorethan30years,scientistshavebeenarguingabouthowrainforestsmighthavereactedtothecold,dryclimateoftheiceages,buttillnow,noonehasreachedasatisfyinganswer.RainforestsliketheAmazonareimportantformoppingupCO2fromtheatmosphereandhelpingtosolveglobalwarming.CurrentlythetreesintheAmazontakeinaround500milliontonsofCO2eachyear:equaltothetotalamountofCO2givenoffintheUKeachyear.ButhowwilltheAmazonreacttothefutureclimatechange?Ifitgetsdrier,willitsurviveandcontinuetodrawdownCO2?Scientistshopethattheywillbeabletolearninadvancehowtherainforestwillmanageinthefuturebyunderstandinghowrainforestsreactedtoclimatechangeinthepast.Unfortunately,collectinginformationisincrediblydifficult.Tostudythepastclimate,scientistsneedtolookatfossilisedpollen(花粉)keptinlakemud.Goingbacktothelasticeagemeansdrillingdownintolakesediments(沉淀物),whichrequiresspecialisedequipmentandheavymachinery.Thereareveryfewroadsandpaths,orplacestolandhelicoptersandaeroplanes.Riverstendtobetheeasiestwaytoentertheforest,butthisstillleavesvastareasbetweentheriverscompletelyunsampled(未取样).Sofar,onlyahandfulofcoreshavebeendrilledthatgobacktothelasticeageandnoneofthemprovideenoughinformationtoprovehowtheAmazonforestreactstoclimatechange.32.Howdoscientistsstudythepastclimatechange?A.Bypredictingclimatechangeinthefuture.B.Bydrillingdowndeepintolandsediments.C.BytakingsamplesfromriversintheAmazon.D.Byanalysingfossilisedpolleninlakemud.答案D解析细微环节理解题。依据文中第三段中的“Tostudythepastclimate,scientistsneedtolookatfossilisedpollenkeptinlakemud.”可知,为了探讨过去的气候,科学家们须要看保存在湖泥中的花粉化石。故选D项。33.Whatisneededfordrillingdownintolakesediments?A.Thelatesthelicopter.B.Thespecialequipment.C.Thelightmachinery.D.Thenarrowpath.答案B解析细微环节理解题。依据第三段中的“Goingbacktothelasticeagemeansdrillingdownintolakesediments,whichrequiresspecialisedequipmentandheavymachinery.”可知,回到上一个冰河时代意味着下钻到湖泊沉淀物,这须要特地的设备和重型机械。C项错在light。故选B项。34.Whatisthepurposeofwritingthepassage?A.Toattractmorepeople’sattentiontoCO2.B.Tocallonpeopletoprotectrainforests.C.Toinformpeopleofhowscientistsworkonrainforests.D.Towarnpeopletostayawayfromthedangerofrainforests.答案C解析推理推断题。这是一篇科普文,通常其写作目的是供应信息。A项是吸引更多人对二氧化碳的留意,和文章无关;B项是号召人们爱护雨林,此文不是强调爱护雨林;D项是警告人们远离雨林的危急,文章没有讲到雨林的危急。故选C项。35.Thebesttitleforthetextmaybe.

A.MysteryoftheRainforestB.ClimatesoftheAmazonC.TheHistoryoftheRainforestD.ChangesoftheRainforest答案A解析标题归纳题。依据第一段中的“Butifyouhadbeentherearound15,000yearsago,duringthelasticeage,wouldithavebeenthesame?Formorethan30years,scientistshavebeenarguingabouthowrainforestsmighthavereactedtothecold,dryclimateoftheiceages,buttillnow,noonehasreachedasatisfyinganswer.”可知,人们对于雨林怎样应对变更的天气始终没有满足的答案,其次、三段讲解并描述的是科学家采纳不同的方法去检测,而且没有结果,所以标题为雨林的神奇是最恰当的。B、C、D项都仅仅是文章提到的部分信息。故选A项。其次节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Everymorningisastruggle.36Butdidyouknowthatdrinkingwatercanmakeyoumoreenergeticandproductive?
