机失事。事实上，乘飞机旅行比开车旅行安全得多)”以乘坐飞机为例，说明大脑的缺点之一是它会变得懒惰，思维模式会回到过去行之有效的解决方案上，G项中flying是关键词，G项“然而，你的大脑正在使用一种心理捷径来欺骗你，让你相信飞行比实际更危险。”说明上文现象出现的原因，符合题意。故选G。【19题详析】上文“Moreover,yourbrainmightfailtodetectsignificantchangesoccurringinyoursurroundings,aphenomenonreferredtoaschangeblindness.(此外，你的大脑可能无法检测到周围环境发生的重大变化，这种现象被称为变化盲)”说明大脑无法检测周围环境发生的重大变化这一现象，A项“你的大脑必须优先考虑它所关注的事情。”说明上文现象出现的原因，并引出下文“otherwise,itwillgetoverwhelmed.(否则，它将不堪重负)”的结果，符合题意。故选A。【20题详析】下文“Intheprocess,wetwistrealitytoprotectourself-esteem—inotherwords,wedon’twanttoownupwhenwemessup.Whydoweparticipateintheblamegame?Researchersbelieveit’stosafeguardourself-esteemandshieldourselvesfromthefearoffailure.(在这个过程中，我们歪曲现实来保护我们的自尊——换句话说，当我们陷入困境时，我们不想承认。我们为什么要参与指责游戏？研究人员认为，这是为了保护我们的自尊，保护自己免受失败的恐惧)”说明我们会指责其他人，以保护自己的自尊，保护自己免受失败的恐惧，F项“当事情出错时，你的大脑会本能地寻找某人或某事来承担责任。”说明事情出错时，大脑的本能反应，引出下文这一过程出现的原因，符合题意。故选F。第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Abunchofbrilliantyellowflowerswasdedicatedtomymother.Shewasamazedatitsshapeandsomethingbeyonddescriptionbutherpassioneventually21.Itdidn’tmatteralotthatbothmyparentshatedthe22oftheseflowersinthelawn.Ithoughttheyweregorgeous!Andtherewereanoceanofthem!Wespenthourspickingtheflowersandthenpoppingtheblossomsoffwithasnapofourfingers.Butthesupplyofdandelions(蒲公英)never23.Myfatherorbrotherswouldcutoffalltheheadswiththelawnmower(割草机)atleastonceaweek,butthatdidn’t24thesehardywonders.Andforthoseflowersthatescapedthehonorofbeing25tomymotherorthedestinytobekilledbythelawnmower,therewasanother26ofexistence.Thesoftroundnessofadandeliongonetoseedcausedendlesslaughterofdelightaswe27spreadthisfloweracrosstheyard.AsIworkedinmygardenlastweek,pullingunwantedweedsoutofthespacethatwouldbecomeanidealplacefortomatoes,com,peasandsunflowers,Iagain28attheflowerthatsomecallaweed.AndIthought,IhopeIhadthe29ofadandelion.IfonlyIcouldstretchmyrootssodeepandstraightthatsomethingtuggingonmystem(茎)couldn’t30mecompletelyfromthesourcethatfeedsmelife.IfonlyIcouldcomebacktofacetheworldwithabright,sunshinyfaceaftersomeonehasrunmeoverwitha31orworse,purposelyattackedmeinanattempttodestroyme.IfonlyIcouldspreadloveandencouragementasfreelyandfullyasthisflowerspreadsseedsofitself.Thelawnsatmyparents’homearenowbeautifulgreenblankets.Theonlypatchesofcolorcomefromwell-placedand32flowerbeds.Chemicalshavemanagedtokillwhathuman33couldn’t.IhopeyouandIcanbe34.Ihopethatwecanstretchourrootsdeepenoughthatthestrongestpoisoncan’treachour35.Ihopethatwecanovercomethepoisonsofanger,fear,hate,criticismandcompetitiveness.21.A.altered
