B.Beneficial.C.Influential. D.Dangerous.【解析】选D。词义揣测题。依据其次段内容可知,在家中吸烟可能会危害同一屋檐下生活的其他人的健康,hazardous意为“危急的”,相当于dangerous,故选D。25.HowdoestheauthororganizeParagraph3?A.Bylistingfigures.B.Bygivingexamples.C.Bycomparingthedifferences.D.Byexplainingthereasons.【解析】选A。推理推断题。依据第三段内容可知,作者列出了Mahidol高校医学院的烟草限制探讨和学问管理中心的相关数据,说明白490万家庭中有一个或多个家庭成员吸烟,平均有1030万人不知不觉地成为被动吸烟者。并通过数据说明被动吸烟者患癌症的风险更大,由此可推知,作者通过列举数字的方法组织第三段内容。故选A。26.Wecanlearnfromthepassagethat.

A.morethan1,000ChinesewordspassintotheEnglishlanguageeveryyearB.about10,000wordspassintotheEnglishlanguageeveryyearC.1.83billionpeoplespeakEnglishastheirnativelanguageD.English-speakersaremainlylocatedinBritainandAmericanow【解析】选B。细微环节理解题。依据第四段的Itsayssome10,000wordsareaddedtotheEnglishlanguageannually可知。30.Thepassagereferstochengguanandtaikonautinordertoshow.

A.onlythetwowordshaveenteredtheOxfordEnglishDictionaryB.thedevelopmentofChinaC.ChinesehasaninfluenceonEnglishD.EnglishwillbereplacedbyChinese【解析】选C。推理推断题。文章提到这两个词的目的是想说明现状已经有约1000个汉语词汇进入英语,表明汉语对英语的影响。故选C。31.AccordingtoPayack,whichofthefollowingisright?A.ChinesewillcontroltheglobalizationoftheEnglishlanguage.B.OneEnglishwordappearseveryminute.C.About300millionChinesepeoplearenowstudyingEnglish.D.MoreChinesewillaffectEnglish.【解析】选D。细微环节理解题。依据最终一段的内容可知,汉语将会接着影响英语,故选D。D(2024·北京高二检测)ElonMusk,perhapstheworld’smostfamousbusinessman,hasahabitofmakingstatementsthatstretchtheboundsofbelievability.OnJuly16th,2024,heintroducedanewtypeofbrain-machineinterface(BMI),startingfromthedesignofa“neurallace(神经织网)”,anetofthinelectrodes(电极)thatcapturetheinformationfromthebrain.However,theelectrodesmustbeflexible,sothattheydonotdamagebraintissueandwilllastforalongtime.Andtomaketheimplantation(植入)ofsomanyelectrodessafe,painlessandeffective,theprocesshastobeautomated.MrMusk’steamdoesindeedseemtohavemadeprogresstowardsthesegoals.Itspresentationincludedvideosofarobotthatisbestdescribedasasewingmachine.Thisrobotgrabs“threads”,andshootsthemdeepintothebrainthroughahole.Thefirmhasalsodesignedachipthatcanhandlesignalsfromasmanyas3,072electrodes.Withallthesetechnologicalbreakthroughs,thefirmnowhopestohelppeopleovercomesuchillnessesasblindnessandparalysis.Theydesignedasmalldevicethatwouldsitbehindsomeone’sear,pickingupsignalsfromtheimplantedchipandpassingthemonasappropriate.Inafewyears,usingabrainimplanttocontrolyourdevicesmaybeasprevalentaswearingwirelessearphonestoday.Finally,MuskpredictsneurallacewillallowhumanstobecombinedwithAIsystems,thusenablingthespeciestosurvive.Though,asthisannouncementshows,MrMuskdoeshaveahabitofpresentinghimselfastheheroofthehumanrace,theideathatsomemachinesatleastwillcomeunderthedirectcontrolofhumanbrainsseemspossibletobecarriedout.Thebiggestbarriertothishappeningwillprobablynotbewritingthesoftwareneededtointerpretbrainwaves,butratherpersuadingpeoplethatthenecessarysurgery,whetherbysewingmachineorotherwise,isactuallyagoodidea.【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了ElonMusk提出的新型脑机交互的想法,并从现今探讨成果和将来应用前景方面进行了具体说明。32.Wecanlearnfromthefirsttwoparagraphsthat.

A.electrodesshouldbeflexibletoextendlifeB.ElonMuskconstantlycomesupwithunexpectedideasC.aneurallaceisusedtostoreinformationfromthebrainD.electrodesareimplantedbytopsurgeonsforsafetyreasons【解析】选B。推理推断题。依据第一段中“埃隆·马斯克,有一种发表超出可信度范围的言论的习惯。”其次段中“2024年7月16日,他提出了一个关于新型脑机交互的想法。”可知ElonMusk常常能提出前所未闻的想法。33.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“prevalent”inParagraph4probablymean?A.Useful. B.Common.C.Professional. D.Appropriate.【解析】选B。词义揣测题。依据第四段中“asprevalentaswearingwirelessearphonestoday”可推想出这项技术会变得更为普遍。B项common“普遍的”切合题意。34.WhatisthehardestpartofcarryingoutBMI?A.Convincingpeopletoacceptthesurgery.B.Developingdevicestoperformthesurgery.C.Writingthesoftwaretointerpretbrainwaves.D.Informingpeopleofthesuccessofthesurgery.【解析】选A。细微环节理解题。依据最终一段中“Thebiggestbarriertothishappeningwillprobablynotbewritingthesoftwareneededtointerpretbrainwaves,butratherpersuadingpeoplethatthenecessarysurgery”可知,最大的阻碍可能不是写软件,而是劝服人们做必要的外科手术。意在表明BMI最艰难的部分是劝服人们接受必要的外科手术。35.Whatisthebesttitleforthispassage?A.TheNeuralLace,ANewTypeofBMIB.ElonMusk,theHeroofHumanBeingsC.ArtificialIntelligence,theWaytoSurviveD.ABrainImplant,ASteptoControlMachines【解析】选A。主旨大意题。依据其次段中“OnJuly16th,2024,heintroducedanewtypeofbrain-machineinterface(BMI)”可知2024年7月16日,他提出了一个关于新型脑机交互的想法。接下来全文围绕新型脑机交互(BMI)进行绽开说明,因此可知A项“神经织网,一种新型的脑机交互”切题。【方法技巧】词义揣测题旨在考查学生依据上下文推想生词、短语或句子意思的实力,突出考查对语境的分析和把握实力,是阅读理解中常考题型,题干中通常含有mean,referto或者bereplacedby等。例如第33小题中“Inafewyears,usingabrainimplanttocontrolyourdevicesmaybeasprevalentaswearingwirelessearphonestoday.”依据同位或说明关系,当作者不能确定读者能够理解他的意思时,他会用另外一种方式来进一步具体说明或用类比关系衬托自己表述的观点。句中as起到了连接前后句语境的作用,通过后句的类比关系示意划线词的含义,考生要将前后两句都读完才能理清语境间的内在联系,进而精确推想出划线词的含义。其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。(2024·南昌高二检测)It’softensaidthatyourparents’jobistomakesurethatonedayyounolongerneedthem.Andthat’scertainlythecasebythetimeyouhavekidsofyourown.However,thisispreciselythetimewhenyourparentsstarttoneedyou.Howdoyoutalktoyouragingparentsabouttheirhealth?36,butthesetipsmakeiteasier.
