可知，StauerUrbanBlue的定价低是一位它是由自己的工厂自行设计的。故选D。【3题】细节理解题。根据文中“Limitedtothefirst1900responderstothisadonly.(仅限于此广告的前1900顾客)”；“StauerUrbanBlueWatch$199(StauerUrbanBlueWatch售价199美元)”以及“OfferCodePrice$29+S&PSave$170(报价代码价格$29+运费和处理费用节省$170)”可知，如果您是第2000位客户，您应该支付199美元购买。故选D。【答案】4.C5.A6.D7.B4题】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Bradshawhasbeenrecordingrareplantsheresincetheearly1950sandhaswitnessedgreatdecreases.Herdatawasthefirsttoprovethat—andtheneedtodosomethingaboutit.”（布拉德肖从20世纪50年代初就开始记录这里的珍稀植物，并见证了它们的大幅减少。她的数据是第一个证明这一点的人，也证明了对此采取措施的必要性。）可知，布拉德肖在珍稀植物方面的主要工作是收集它们的数据。故选C项。【5题】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Themainreasonforthedecreaseoftheseplantsisanunusualone.ThenumberofsheepinTeesdalehadbeenreducedbyhalfby2000,astheuplandsweregenerallybelievedthereweretoomanysheep.Bradshawsayswhilesheeparehuntedinsomeuplandareas,reducingherdinginTeesdalehasbeendestructive.Longergrassovershadowsthedelicate(娇嫩)flowers,takingawaythelighttheyneedtogrow.”（这些植物减少的主要原因是一个不寻常的原因。到2000年，提斯代尔的羊数量减少了一半，因为人们普遍认为高地上羊太多了。布拉德肖说，虽然羊在一些高地地区被猎杀，但在提斯代尔减少放牧是具有破坏性的。较长的草遮住了娇弱的花朵，带走了它们生长所需的光。）可推知，没有足够的羊导致了提斯代尔稀有植物的减少。故选A项。【6题】推理判断题。根据最后一段““Thisisourheritage,thisuniqueplantspecies,mineandyours,“shewrites.“Inspiteoftrying,Ihavefailedtopreventitsdecrease,nowitisuptoyou.””（“这是我们的遗产，这种独特的植物物种，我的和你的，”她写道。“尽管我努力了，但还是没能阻止它的减少，现在就看你的了。”）可推知，从最后一段布拉德肖的话中我们能了解到，她希望推进先行者开创这个事业。故选D项。【7题】主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段““IrecogniseI’mgettingolderandI’vebeentryingtogetmorepeopletotakeoveranddotherecords.Theydon’tbelieveIwon’tbehereforever,”Bradshawsays.DespiteBradshaw’sguardianshipofthisland,andtheloveandenergyshehasputintosavingit,thefuturehereisunknown.Thelastwordsofherbookspeaktothisendlessloss.“Thisisourheritage,thisuniqueplantspecies,mineandyours,”shewrites.“Inspiteoftrying,Ihavefailedtopreventitsdecrease,nowitisuptoyou.””（“我意识到我年纪越来越大了，我一直在努力让更多的人接手并做记录。他们不相信我不会永远在这里，”布拉德肖说。尽管布拉德肖守护着这片土地，她为拯救这片土地付出了爱和精力，但这里的未来仍是未知的。她书中的最后几句话讲述了这种无尽的失落。“这是我们的遗产，这种独特的植物物种，我的和你的，”她写道。“尽管我努力了，但还是没能阻止它的减少，现在就看你的了。”）可知，文章主要讲的是97岁的植物学家玛格丽特·布拉德肖(MargaretBradshaw)是提斯代尔最稀有花卉的主要看护人，她希望让更多的人接手并做记录并且开创这个事业。故文章最好的标题是“为提斯代尔的稀有花卉而奋斗”。故选B项。【答案】8.C9.A10.B11.C【8题】细节理解题。根据第二段““We’vegottogetmoreyoungpeopleinvolved,”saysDimbleby.Thefeedbacksofarhasbeenpositive,buttheclassismostlymadeupofretirees.HeishopingtorunanothercourseonSaturdaymornings,whenyoungerpeopleareavailable.”（“我们必须让更多的年轻人参与进来，”丁布尔比说。到目前为止，反馈是积极的，但课程主要由退休人员组成。他希望在年轻人有空的周六上午再开一门课）可知，丁布尔认为应该吸引更多的年轻人参与到约克郡方言的课程中。故选C。【9题】词义猜测题。第三段提到“differentpeoplemaypronounceitindifferentways”（不同的人可能会以不同的方式发音）后文中又举了个例子““nothing”inYorkshireis“nowt”,butsomepeoplewouldread“out”,whileinmostofYorkshireithasmoreofan“ohwt”sound”（约克郡的“nothing”是“nowt”，但有些人会读成“out”，而在约克郡的大部分地区，它更多的是“ohwt”的音）由此可知，不同地区对于某个词的发音是不一样的，如果不是借助于发音规则的话则很容易读成不一样的。A项turningto意为“转向；致力于；求助于”与划线部分意思一致。故选A。【10题】推理判断题。根据第四段中“I’vealwaysbeenfascinatedbytheYorkshiredialect,(我一直对约克郡方言着迷)”和“Mymother,althoughshetaughtmetospeakproperly,shecouldspeakinthedialect.”（我的母亲，虽然她教我说话得体，但她会说方言）可知，Kaye的母亲虽然会说得体的英语，但是她会说方言这一点让Kaye开始对约克郡方言感兴趣了。由此推知，Kaye对约克郡方言感兴趣是母亲的影响。故选B。【11题】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“JeanCrampton,hereforthefirsttime,hasanotebooktowritedownwordsusedbyherparents,whodiedmorethan10yearsago.(JeanCrampton第一次来到这里，她带着一个笔记本，记录她十多年前去世父母说过的话)”和““Andthat’swhyI’vecome,toberemindedofthem.Aftertheydied,thatimmediacyfades,andlanguageisoneofthethingsthatcanhelpbringitbackintoyourmind,whichisbrilliant.””（“这就是我来这里的原因，想让他们提醒我。他们死后，那种直接感就消失了，语言是一种可以帮助你把它带回脑海的东西，这很聪明。”）可知，Jean去方言学习班学习方言是为了纪念和父母之间的回忆。故选C。【答案】12.D13.A14.D15.C【12题】细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientistsonceconsideredsleeptobelikeashadowgettingdrawnoverawindowbetweenthebrainandtheoutsideworld:whentheshadowisclosed,thebrainstopsreactingtooutsidestimuli(刺激).(科学家们曾经认为睡眠就像大脑和外部世界之间的窗户上蒙上的遮光帘：当遮光帘关闭时，大脑就会停止对外界刺激的反应。)”可知，科学家过去认为睡觉意味着大脑对外界的反应停止。故选D。【13题】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Duringthesepeople’sreams,experimenterswereabletoaskquestionsandgetresponsesthrougheyeandfacial-musclemovements.(在这些人的实验过程中，实验人员可以提出问题并通过他们眼睛和面部肌肉的运动得到回应。)”可知，清醒梦者通过面部和眼睛的移动来和实验人员交流，故选A。【14题】细节理解题。根据第五段中“Allofthemrespondedaccuratelytoatleast70%ofthesetips.OverallresponserateswerehigherforallparticipantsduringREM(rapideyemovement)sleep,whenthedeepestsleepoccursbutthebrainremainsquiteactive,thanduringothersleepstages.(所有参与者在REM(快速眼动)睡眠期间的总体反应率都高于其他睡眠阶段。REM是深度睡眠，但大脑仍相当活跃)”可知，参与者在深度睡眠阶段表现出更高的反应，故选D。【15题】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Thisstudyispartofalargeradvanceinthefieldofsleepresearch,saysMélanieStrauss,acognitivescientistinBrussels.ResearchersaremovingawayfrommonitoringsleepmainlywithEEG(脑电图)andtowards‘finegrained’approachesthatcombineEEGwithvarioustasksandstimuli—astrategythatcouldhelptocastlightonspecificdiseasesorconditions,shesays.(这项研究是睡眠研究领域更大进展的一部分，布鲁塞尔的认知科学家MélanieStrauss说。她说，研究人员正在从主要通过脑电图监测睡眠，转向将脑电图与各种任务和刺激结合起来的‘细粒度’方法——一种有助于阐明特定疾病或状况的策略。)”可知，MélanieStrauss主要讲述了睡眠研究的进展，故选C。【答案】16.A17.C18.D19.G20.B【16题】根据上文“Withbabiesandveryyoungchildren,weparentsplaywiththem,engaginginback-and-forthactivitieslikehide-and-seekandtowerbuilding.”（对于婴儿和很小的孩子，我们父母会和他们一起玩，玩捉迷藏和盖塔之类的来回游戏。）讲的是父母会和孩子一起玩游戏。以及下文“Theypullusintoplay,andwefeelpleasure.”（他们把我们拉进游戏，我们感到快乐。）提到孩子把我们拉进游戏。A项Theyoftenstartthegame,andwejoinin.（他们经常开始游戏，我们也加入进来。）起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选A项。【17题】根据上文“Fromthispointonward—intoadolescence—wefocusongettingachildtobehave.”（从这一点开始——进入青春期——我们把重点放在让孩子守规矩上。）可知，讲的是孩子在成长过程中，我们把重点放在让孩子守规矩上。以及下文“It’sparentingbelief,notspecificallydefined,butoftentranslatedinto“becauseIsaidso”.”（这是为人父母的信念，没有明确的定义，但经常被翻译成“因为我这么说”。）说明作为父母的责任。由此可知，空处应该承接上文，继续描写父母让孩子守规矩的表现，选项C项Wearetoldinmanywaystobetheparent,notthefriend.（我们在很多方面都被告知要做父母，而不是朋友。）符合，承接上文内容。故选C项。【18题】根据上文“Whileparentsmusthelpchildrenlearntomeetadultdemands,whenwelimitourparentingfocusto“commandandcontrol”wecancrowdout“delight”.”（虽然父母必须帮助孩子学会满足成人的要求，但当我们把教育的重点限制在“命令和控制”上时，我们就会排挤掉“快乐”。）可知，讲的是父母把教育的重点限制在“命令和控制”上时，就会排挤掉“快乐”，空处承接上文，继续描述父母把教育的重点限制在“命令和控制”上，选项D项Highlightingourroleastaskmasterslimitsourparentingtools.（强调我们作为“监工”的角色会限制我们的育儿工具。）符合。故选D项。【19题】根据下文“Thekeyisfollowingyourchild’slead.Astheygetolderandtheyaredeepintootherthings,friendlyplaymightincludeteachingyoutoplaytheirfavoritevideogameorsharetheirYouTube.”（关键是要跟随孩子的脚步。随着他们年龄的增长，他们开始沉迷于其他事情，友好的游戏可能包括教你玩他们最喜欢的电子游戏或分享他们的YouTube。）可知，讲的是玩的游戏要跟随孩子的脚步，由此可知，空格处应为类似的游戏。结合选项G项Friendlyplaywithchildrencanrangefrombui
