xposedtoneonicotinoids”可知，与新烟碱类杀虫剂接触也会使蜜蜂丢失学习和记忆实力，对蜜蜂的生存也是有威逼的，与选项C表达一样。D项意为生活在纯净的野外，依据文意和生活常识可推断出纯净的野外环境不会威逼到蜜蜂的生存。故选D项。【26题详解】细微环节理解题。依据文章倒数第三段关键句“Thequestion,then-whichhasn’tbeenansweredbyregulationtodate,Johnsonsays-ishowmuchharmtobeesisacceptable.”可知，Johnson说到目前为止监管部门还没有回答的问题是多大的损害是蜜蜂可以接受的。由此可推断出，依据Johnson说的话，现在还不清晰蜜蜂能承受多少杀虫剂的危害。故选C项。【27题详解】细微环节理解题。依据文章最终一段关键句“Withrestrictionsonneonicotinoidsincreasingglobally,manywillbelookingonalternativechemicalsforcropprotection.”可知，随着全球范围内对新烟碱类杀虫剂的限制日益增多，很多人将寻求替代化学品来爱护作物。由此可推断出为了响应对新烟碱类杀虫剂的限制，人们可以寻求其他的化学品来爱护作物。故选D项。CTheword”Kuitou”inPekingOperaisthetechnicaltermforvariouskindsofhatsandheadpieceswornbyvariouscharactersintraditionalChineseopera.Morethanjustmeetingtherequirementsofacting,italsorevealsanaspectoftraditionalChineseculture.IntraditionalHanChineseculture,peoplebelievedthatsince,one’swholebodywasagiftfromone’sparents,itwasimportanttoavoidanythingthatmightinjureit,aprinciplethatshowedfilialpiety(孝道)。Basedonthisideology,maleswererequiredtolettheirhairgrowlong,andwearinghatsbecamearuleofsocialetiquette(礼仪)inancienttimes.SinceancientChinesesocietywasdividedintovarioussocialclasses,peopleineachclassworedifferentstylesofclothes,butonlythenobilitywerepermittedtowearformalhatsforadornment(装饰)。Peopleoflowerclassescouldonlywraptheirheadwithapieceofcloth.Anyoneundertheageof20wasalsonotallowedtowearformalhatsandcouldonlywearoneaftertheperformanceofanofficialcappingceremonytomarktheirreachingofadulthood.Asaresult,varioustypesofformalhatsinancienttimes,inadditiontohavingvalueasapieceofpersonaladornmentandsocialetiquette,alsorevealedthesocialclassesofpeopleandstrictsocialdivisionsthatexistedbetweenthenobilityandcommonpeople.Inancienttimes,peopleattachedmuchimportancetothekindofhattheywore.Anoldsayingsays,”Amanofnoblecharacterwouldratherdiethantakeoffhishat.”ThesayingwasbasedonthestoryofoneofConfucius’sfavoritestudents,ZiLu,amanwhowasabravewarrior.Oncewhilefightinginclosehand-to-handcombat,hisenemyopponentknockedoffhishat.Whenherealizedthathishathadbeenknockedoff,ZiLuplaceddownhisweaponandsaidtotheenemysoldier,”Anoblemancandie,butmyattire(服装)mustbekeptorderly.”Butthe.momenthebentdowntopickuphishat,theenemysoldierseizedtheopportunityandkilledhim.AccordingtoZiLu,hisproperappearance,whichincludedhishat,representedhisdignity(尊严)，andhewouldratherdiethanabandonhisdignity.TheformalhatcultureoftheHanChinesecontinuedupuntiltheMingDynasty.LateraftertheManchuriansenteredtheCentralPlains(满人入关)，commonpeopleinsocietybegantowearhats.28.ForChinesemalesintheHanDynasty,wearingheadpiecesorhatswas.A.arequirementofactingB.aruleofsocialetiquetteC.awaytoshowfilialpietyD.arepresentationofculture29.Wecaninferfromthethirdparagraphthatinancienttimes,A.theformalhatwasasymbolofadulthoodB.headwearwasnothingbutadecorationC.onlynoblepeoplecouldaffordtowearformalhatsD.thereexistedlittledistinctionbetweensocialclasses30.TheauthormentionsthestoryofZiLutoshow.A.howbraveapersonhewasB.howpeoplevaluedtheirhatsC.howfierceanancientwarwasD.howpeopledealtwithetiquette31.Thepassageisprobablytakenfromthecolumnof.A.societyB.technologyC.operaD.culture【答案】28.B29.A30.B31.D【解析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了帽子在古代中国社会所代表的的文化意义。【28题详解】细微环节理解题。依据其次段“Basedonthisideology,maleswererequiredtolettheirhairgrowlong,andwearinghatsbecamearuleofsocialetiquette(礼仪)inancienttimes.”可知，基于这种意识形态，男性被要求留长发，戴帽子成为了古代社会礼仪的一种规则。所以对于汉代的中国男性来说，戴头饰或帽子是一种社会礼仪规则。故选B项。【29题详解】推理推断题。依据第三段“Anyoneundertheageof20wasalsonotallowedtowearformalhatsandcouldonlywearoneaftertheperformanceofanofficialcappingceremonytomarktheirreachingofadulthood.”可知，年龄在20岁以下的人也不允许戴正式的帽子，只有在正式的加冕仪式结束后才能戴，这标记着他们已经成年。由此推断出，正式的帽子是成年的象征。故选A项。【30题详解】细微环节理解题。依据最终一段“Inancienttimes,peopleattachedmuchimportancetothekindofhattheywore.Anoldsayingsays,”Amanofnoblecharacterwouldratherdiethantakeoffhishat.”ThesayingwasbasedonthestoryofoneofConfucius’sfavoritestudents,ZiLu,amanwhowasabravewarrior.”古代，人们很重视他们戴的帽子。有句老话说:“君子宁死不脱帽。”这句话是基于孔子最喜爱的学生子路的故事，他是一个英勇的战士。由此可知，作者提到子路的故事是为了说明人们如何重视自己的帽子。故选B项。【31题详解】推理推断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Morethanjustmeetingtherequirementsofacting,italsorevealsanaspectoftraditionalChineseculture.”可知，帽子不仅满足了表演要求，也展示了中国传统文化的一个方面。再结合短文介绍了帽子在古代中国社会所代表的的文化意义。由此推断出，这篇短文来自于文化专栏。故选D项。DThereisacountry-Ireadaboutitonce-wherethelocalcustomisthatifyougotoahouseandpraisesomesmallpossession,theownersfeelobligedtoofferittoyouasagift.Idon’trememberthenameofthecountry;theonlyotherplaceIknowofwithsuchacustomismymother’sapartment.KnowingMama,Ihavealwaysbeencarefulwithmycompliments,butthatdoesn’tstopher.Mamasensesadmirationfarmoresubtle(敏感的)thanwhat’sspoken.Ifshecatchesmestaringatanythingsmallenoughtoputinagrocerysack,shehandsittomeasIleave.Itwoulddonogoodtoprotest.Sometimes,whilevisitingMama,Itrynottosayanythingcomplimentary.IhavebeenworryingforweeksnowaboutwhattogivemymotherforMother’sDay.Formostpeople,thisisamodestproblem,solvedbythepurchaseofabathrobeoraboxofcandy.Forme,however,Mother’sDayrepresentsanannualchallengetodotheimpossible-findagiftthatwillmakeneitherMamanormefeelterrible.Expensivegifts-Mamadefinesascosti
