【答案】4.D5.A6.D7.B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是对2080年的教育的展望。

【4题详解】

主旨大意题。木艮据第——段“Untilabout2035,themainfunctionofeducationsystemswastosupplytheeconomy

withthenextgenerationofworkers.In2080,thepurposeofeducationisthewell-beingofsocietyandallits

members.（直到2035年左右，教育系统的主要功能是为经济提供下一代工人。在2080年，教育的目的是社

会及其所有成员的福祉。）”可知，第一段主要告诉我们未来教育的目标是完全不同的。故选D。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“Schoolshavebeenreplacedwith"'LearningHubs^^thatarenotrestrictedtocertain

ages.（学校已经被不受年龄限制的“学习中心”所取代。）”可知，Shemsy去的学习中心接受所有年龄的学

生。故选A。

【6题详解】

词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“BeingHumanandtheHistoryofHumanity（做人和人类历史）”可知，做人和

人类历史应该是全球儿童必修的课程，划线词mandatory的意思是“必修的"，和required意思相近，故

选D。

【7题详解】

主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“In2080,thepurposeofeducationisthewell-beingofsocietyandall

itsmembers.Tomakethisabitmoretangibleforyou,Iwouldliketogiveanexampleofwhatachild'seducation

lookslikein2080.（在2080年，教育的目的是社会及其所有成员的福祉。为了让你们更明白这一点，我想举

一个2080年儿童教育的例子。）”可知，本文主要介绍的是对2080年的教育的展望，因此最恰当的标题是

【答案】12.B13.B14.A15.D

【解析】

【导语】本文是说明文。这篇文章探讨了Molyneux问题，即一个天生失明但通过触摸学会区分物体的人

在恢复视力后是否能够通过视觉来识别物体。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第——段“Thequestion,knownasMolyneux^problem,isaboutwhetherthehumanmindhasa

built-inconceptofshapesthatissoinbornthatablindpersoncouldimmediatelyrecognizeanobjectwithrestored

vision.Alternatively,theconceptsofshapesarenotinbornbuthavetobelearnedbyexploringanobjectthrough

念，这种概念是天生的，以至于盲人可以在恢复视力的情况下立即认出物体。另外，形状的概念不是天生

的，而是必须通过视觉、触觉和其他感官探索物体来学习的）”可知，Molyneux问题的内容是人类的形状

观念是天生的还是后天习得的。故选B项。

【13题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段“Aftertheirattempttotestitinblindchildrenfailed,LarsChittkaofQueenMary

UniversityofLondonandhisteamcarriedoutanotherexperimentonbumblebees.Totestwhetherbumblebeescan

玛丽女王大学的LarsChittka和他的团队在大黄蜂身上进行了另一项实验。为了测试大黄蜂是否能形成对

物体的内部表征，他们首先用糖奖励来训练大黄蜂区分球形和立方体。蜜蜂首先在光线下训练，在那里它

们可以看到但不能触摸物体。然后他们在黑暗中进行测试，在那里他们可以触摸但看不到物品。研究人员

发现，这些昆虫花了更多的时间来接触它们被训练成与糖奖励相关联的形状，尽管它们必须依靠触觉而不

是视觉来区分物体）”可知，LorsChittka和他的同事是通过控制实验来研究Molyneux问题。故选B项。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后——段uHowever,someexpertsexpresstheirwarningsagainsttheresult.JonathanBirch,a

philosopherofscience,cautionsthatthebeesmayhavehadpriorexperienceassociatingvisualandtactile（触觉）

informationaboutstraightedgesandcurvedsurfacesintheirnests.（然而，一些专家对这一结果提出了警告。科

学哲学家乔纳森・伯奇。onathanBirch）警告说，蜜蜂可能已经有了将巢中的直边和曲面的视觉和触觉信息联

系起来的经验）”可知，JonathanBirch认为蜜蜂可能已经有了将巢中的直边和曲面的视觉和触觉信息联系

起来的经验，所以是持怀疑的态度。故选A项。

【15题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第——段“Thequestion,knownasMolyneux?sproblem,isaboutwhetherthehumanmindhasa

built-inconceptofshapesthatissoinbornthatablindpersoncouldimmediatelyrecognizeanobjectwithrestored

vision.Alternatively,theconceptsofshapesarenotinbornbuthavetobelearnedbyexploringanobjectthrough

念，这种概念是天生的，以至于盲人可以在恢复视力的情况下立即认出物体。另外，形状的概念不是天生

的，而是必须通过视觉、触觉和其他感官探索物体来学习的）”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了

Molyneux问题，并通过大黄蜂来进行实验研究，所以D项^BumblebeesMayHelpSolveMolyneux飞

Problem（大黄蜂可能帮助Molyneux解决问题）”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
