D.Sheneededmoreexposure.【答案】24.D25.C26.A27.B【语篇解读】本文为记叙文。一位第一代美国华裔LuLing汉语很好，但是英语不好，她有时候给人写一些标牌赚一点外快，女儿Ruth负责检查英语拼写。LuLing教自己女儿写汉字，她通过示范如何握笔和拆解汉字笔画教授，但是女儿不理解。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Thiswasthepieceworkthatearnedherareliablereputation,andRuthhadhadaroleinthatsuccess:shecheckedthespellingoftheEnglishwords.(正是这种计件工作为她赢得了可靠的声誉，而露丝也功不可没：她检查了英语单词的拼写)”可知，她检查出拼写错误，让她妈妈纠正。故选D。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Ruth’ssleepyeyestriedtofollowhermother’shandasshewipedthebrushwithink,thenhelditnearlyvertically(垂直)tothepage,herwristandelbowinmidair.(露丝用墨水擦着毛笔，困倦的眼睛试图跟随母亲的手，然后把毛笔几乎垂直地举在纸上，手腕和手肘悬在半空中)”和第四段“Ruthlookedandshookherhead.(露丝看了看，摇了摇头)”以及从LuLing一遍又一遍地问问题，但是Ruth回答不出来可知，她很“迷惑”。故选C。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“SomenightsLuLingfoundwaystohelpRuthrememberthecharacters.“Eachradical(偏旁部首)comesfromanoldpicturefromalongtimeago.”(有些晚上，陆玲想办法帮助露丝记住这些字。“每个偏旁部首都来自很久以前的一张老图片。”)”以及最后一段“Shedrewmorelines—dotsanddashes,downstrokesandupstrokes,bendsandhooks.(她画了更多的线——点和线，向下和向上，弯曲和钩)”可知，这些拆解都是汉字的构成，即她教了露丝汉字的构成来帮助她记忆。故选A。【27题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段“Shedrewmorelines—dotsanddashes,downstrokesandupstrokes,bendsandhooks.“Doyouseethis?”shesaidoverandoverasifshewantedtobumptheChinesegears(传动装置)ofherdaughter’smindintoaction.(她画了更多的线——点和线，向下和向上，弯曲和钩。“你看到了吗？”她一遍又一遍地说，好像她想把女儿脑子里的汉语传动装置变成行动)”以及母亲LuLing希望女儿Ruth能够理解自己所写的汉字，但是这些笔画在女儿的眼中就像是“去肉的小排骨”，说明女儿仍然是不理解。故选B。CShouldhumanskillmembersofonebirdspeciestohelpprotectanother?That’sthequestionscientistsandconservationistsarestrugglingwithrightnowinthePacificNorthwest.Inabidtosavenorthernspottedowlsfromextinction,theU.S.FishandWildlifeService(USFWS)hassuggestedshootingmorethan470,000barredowlsoverthenext30years.Theproposal—whichisstilladraftandwillremainopenforpubliccomment—hasdrawncriticismfromsomewildlifeconservationistsandhighlightsthedifficultieslandmanagersfacewhiletryingtomaintainthedelicatebalanceofecosystems.Spottedowlsandbarredowlsarecloselyrelated.ButonlyspottedowlsarenativetothePacificNorthwest.Barredowls,analienspecies,haveslowlycometodominatetheregionoverthelastcentury.Theirlargersize,moregeneralistnatureandfasterreproductionratehavepreparedthemtooutcompetespottedowls,whosenumbershavedroppedbyroughly75percentoverthelast20years,accordingtotheUSFWS.Biologistshavelongwonderedhowtokeepthebarredowlpopulationincheck.In2021,scientistspublishedtheresultsofanexperimentthatinvolvedkilling2,485barredowlsinfivestudyareas.Overfiveyears,spottedowlsurvivalratesincreasedbyanaverageof10percentatthesites.Buttotrulyrecover,spottedowlsmightneedmorethanfiveyears,becausetheyareslowtoreproduce.That’sthedrivingfactorbehindtheagency’srecentlyproposedlong-termmanagementplan.Conservationistshavemixedfeelingsabouttheplan.Whiletheyunderstandthatsciencemaysupportkillingbarredowls,theyworryaboutthemoralinferenceofkillingoffmembersofonespeciestosaveanother.BobSallinger,executivedirectorofthenonprofitBirdConservationOregon,says,“Wedon’tthinkit’smoralbecausetheyarecurrentlydoingbetterintheexistingenvironment.”Hedescribesitasano-winsituationthathumanshavecreatedforourselves.“Ratherthanchoosingtoconserveonebirdovertheother,thisisaboutconservingtwospecies,”saysKessinaLee,supervisoroftheU.S.FishandWildlifeServiceofficeinOregon.“Spottedowlsarefightingfortheirexistencerightnow.However,eveniftheservicewasabletoremovethatnumberofbarredowlsoverthenext30years,thatwouldrepresentlessthan1percentoftheglobalpopulationofbarredowls.”28.WhyistheUSFWSproposingthelong-termplan?A.Todobiographyresearchonowls.

D.Doubtful.【答案】28.B29.D30.A31.C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）提议在未来30年里扑杀横纹猫头鹰来拯救北方本土斑点猫头鹰，这引起了野生动物保护者的强烈反对。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Inabidtosavenorthernspottedowlsfromextinction,theU.S.FishandWildlifeService(USFWS)hassuggestedshootingmorethan470,000barredowlsoverthenext30years.(为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）建议在未来30年内射杀47万只横纹猫头鹰。)”可知，USFWS提出这项猎杀计划是为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，恢复其数量。故选B。【29题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Barredowls,analienspecies,haveslowlycometodominatetheregionoverthelastcentury.Theirlargersize,moregeneralistnatureandfasterreproductionratehavepreparedthemtooutcompetespottedowls,whosenumbershavedroppedbyroughly75percentoverthelast20years,accordingtotheUSFWS.(在过去的一个世纪里，一种外来物种——横纹猫头鹰已经慢慢主导了该地区。根据美国鱼类和野生动物管理局的数据，它们更大的体型、更多面手的天性和更快的繁殖率使它们能够战胜斑点猫头鹰，斑点猫头鹰的数量在过去20年里下降了约75%。)”可知，本段主要讲述了横纹猫头鹰的生理优势使其占据了优势地位。故选D。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“Conservationistshavemixedfeelingsabouttheplan.(环保主义者对这项计划有着复杂的感情。)”和“Hedescribesitasano-winsituationthathumanshavecreatedforourselves.(他将其描述为人类为自己创造的一种注定失败的局面。)”可知，it指代前面所说的theplan，再结合第二段中的“Inabidtosavenorthernspottedowlsfromextinction,theU.S.FishandWildlifeService(USFWS)hassuggestedshootingmorethan470,000barredowlsoverthenext30years.(为了拯救北方斑点猫头鹰免于灭绝，美国鱼类和野生动物管理局（USFWS）建议在未来30年内射杀47万只横纹猫头鹰。)”可知，theplan指的是USFWS的提议。故选A。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段““Ratherthanchoosingtoconserveonebirdovertheother,thisisaboutconservingtwospecies,”saysKessinaLee,supervisoroftheU.S.FishandWildlifeServiceofficeinOregon.“Spottedowlsarefightingfortheirexistencerightnow.However,eveniftheservicewasabletoremovethatnumberofbarredowlsoverthenext30years,thatwouldrepresentlessthan1percentoftheglobalpopulationofbarredowls.”(俄勒冈州美国鱼类和野生动物管理局办公室主管KessinaLee说：“不是选择保护一种鸟类放弃另一种，这是在保护两种鸟类。斑点猫头鹰现在正在为生存而战。然而，即使该服务能够在未来30年内清除如此数量的横纹猫头鹰，这也只占全球横纹猫头鹰种群的不到1%。”)”可知，KessinaLee认为这个计划是在保护两种鸟类，即便猎杀了这么多数量的横纹猫头鹰，也只是占全球横纹猫头鹰种群的不到1%，不会对横纹猫头鹰造成种群灭绝危机，由此可推测出，他支持该项计划。故选C。DAltitudes,landscapesandclimateschangedramaticallyasyoumoveacrosstheglobe,butonefactorremainsnearlyuniversal.AllofEarth’sdiversityisblanketedunderabluesky.Butwhyistheskyblue?Theexplanationrequiresabitofparticlephysics(粒子物理).WeseeblueaboveusbecauseofhowlightfromthesuninteractswithEarth’satmosphere.Thevisiblelightcontainsavarietyofcolors,rangingfromredlighttoviolet.Whenallofthecolorsaremixed,thelightappearswhite,MarcChenard,ascientistattheNationalWeatherService,toldLiveScience.ButoncethewhitelighttravelingfromthesunreachesEarth,someofthecolorsbegintointeractwithsmallparticlesintheatmosphere,hesaid.Eachcolorinthevisiblelighthasadifferentwavelength.Redandorangelightwaves,forinstance,havelongerwavelengths,whileblueandvioletlighthavemuchshorterwavelengths.It’stheshorterwavelengthsoflightthataremorelikelytobescattered(散射)orabsorbedandreflectedinadifferentdirectionbytheairparticlesinEarth’satmosphere,Chenardsaid.That’swhatmakestheskyblue.Eventhoughvioletlightisscatteredtoo,thereareacoupleofreasonswhyweseetheskyasmorebluethanpurple,accordingtoEdBloomer,anastronomerattheRoyalObservatoryGreenwichintheU.K.First,thesundoesn’tproduceequalillumination(亮度)inallcolors;itcontainsmorebluelightthanvioletlight,somorebluelightisscattered.Additionally,oureyesarenotequallyresponsivetoallcolors,BloomertoldLiveScience;theyarelesssensitivetovioletlight.Thispreferentialscatteringofbluelightalsoplaysintothecolorsofsunriseandsunset.Atsunset,asaparticularpointisturningfartherandfartherfromthesun,sunlightmusttravelfartherthroughtheatmospheretoreachyoureyes.Bythetimethesunlightreachesyou,allofthebluelighthasbeenscatteredaway.Asaresult,theorange,redandyellowwavelengthsareallthat’slefttocolorthesunset.32.Theskyisbluebecausevisiblelights.A.interactwithairparticles B.travelatdifferentspeedsC.aretoocolorfultoilluminate D.arereflectedbyblueoceans33.Howdoestheauthormaketheexplanationmoreaccessible?A.Byfollowingorderofspace.
