D.Howwecanhandlethecarbonproblem.【答案】8.C9.D10.C11.A【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。作者由一名杂志记者发表的关于未来生活的文章引出话题并展开了自己对未来2050年碳排放减少后的某一天的生活的畅想。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Here,heimagineswhatatypicaldaywouldbelikeinthefuture—throughtheeyesofIsla,“achildin2050”—afterwe’vecutcarbonemissions(排放).(在这里，他通过‘2050年的孩子’艾拉的视角，想象了在我们减少碳排放之后，未来典型的一天会是什么样子)”可知，AdamVaughan想象了一个关于2050年生活在碳中和世界的场景，基于研究和专家意见，这是一种对未来的展望。故选C项。【9题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“andherlifelooksprettymuchlikelifedoestoday:Shehasahouse,acarandajob.Thereareforests,andgiantmachinestakingcarbondioxide(二氧化碳)outoftheatmosphere.Itallsoundslikeagreenandpleasantland,butitdidn’tsoundlikethefuturetome.It’sjustlikethelifewearelivingnow.(她的生活看起来和今天的生活很像：她有房子，有车，有工作。那里有森林，还有从大气中吸收二氧化碳的巨型机器。这一切听起来像是一片绿色和宜人的土地，但对我来说，这并不像未来。就像我们现在的生活一样。)”可知，作者认为Isla的生活跟我们现在生活一样，很普通，没有什么新奇的。故选D项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“wishingtomovetoCanadawithitscoolerclimateandplentifulwater.

(希望移居气候凉爽、水资源丰富的加拿大)”可知，人们希望搬到加拿大是因为其气候凉爽、水资源丰富。故选C项。【11题详解】推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“NewScientist

magazine’schiefreporterAdamVaughanrecentlypublished“Howyourdaywilllookinacarbon-neutral(碳中和)world.”Here,heimagineswhatatypicaldaywouldbelikeinthefuture—

throughtheeyesofIsla,“achildin2050”—

afterwe’vecutcarbonemissions(排放).(《新科学家》杂志的首席记者亚当·沃恩最近发表了一篇题为《在一个碳中性的世界里，你的一天会是什么样子》的文章。在这里，他通过“2050年的孩子”艾拉的视角，想象了在我们减少碳排放之后，未来典型的一天会是什么样子。沃恩承认这篇文章是出于想象，但它是通过研究、专家意见和目前正在进行的实验得出的结论)”以及第三段“It’saninterestingexercise,imaginingwhatitwillbelikeinabout30years.IthoughtIwouldgiveitatry:HereismystoryaboutEdie,livinginToronto,Canadain2050.(这是一个有趣的练习，想象30年后会是什么样子。我想我应该试一试：这是我关于2050年生活在加拿大多伦多的伊迪的故事。)”可知，文章中作者先是介绍了AdamVaughan关于2050年生活的想象，然后又介绍了自己对2050年生活的另一种想象；由此可知，作者想告诉我们2050年我们的生活会是什么样子。故选A项。DRecently,SouthAustraliahascommittedanadditional$17.1milliontotheNationalFireAntEradicationProgramtofightagainstoneoftheworld’smostinvasivepests—theredimportedfireant.Theymightbeonly2-6mmlong,buttheycandestroycropsandmachinery,andmakeyards,parks,andfarmlandsunusable.Theycanalsodamageelectricalequipmentincludingstreetlightsandtelecommunicationnetworks.Andtheycanbringapainfulsting(叮)thathasthepotentialtocauseadeadlyallergicreactioninpeople,petsandlivestock.Theredfireants,whichwerefromSouthAmericancountriesandwerefirstdiscoveredinBrisbanein2001,havenotbeendiscoveredinSouthAustraliaandcurrentlyareonlypresentinQueenslandandNewSouthWales(NSW).Buttheycanspreadtonewterritoryquickly.Fivenests(巢)wereascertainedinnorthernNSWinNovember2023.Theantsgenerallyspreadthroughhumanactivity,mainlythemovingofpollutedsoil,plantsoragriculturalmachinery,andonceinanewarea,theycanrapidlyestablishanewnest.TheNationalFireAntEradicationProgramincludesafour-yearresponseplanworth$592.8million,whichwillusethelatesttechnologyandinnovativeapproachestoeventuallysweepawayfireants.TheStateGovernment’slatestfundingcommitmentisontopof$6.5millionalreadycommittedtotheprogram.ReecePianta,AdvocacyManagerwiththeInvasiveSpeciesCouncil,said“Fireantsareoneoftheworld’sworstsuper-pestsandiftheyareallowedtospread,theireconomicimpactwillbegreaterthanrabbits,feralcatsandfoxescombined.TheywilldamageAustralia’senvironmentandagriculture,costoureconomybillionsannuallyandwecouldseehundredsofthousandsofextramedicalvisitseveryyearastheystingAustraliansattheparkorinthebackyard.”Redimportedfireantsareanotifiable(须申报的)pestinSouthAustraliawhichmeansthereisalegalobligationforpeopletoreportanysuspecteddetectionstotheExoticPlantPestHotlineon1800084881.12.Whatdoesparagraph2mainlytalkabout?A.Thepredictionfortheprogram.

D.ANewApproachforSweepingAwayFireAnts【答案】12.B13.D14.A15.B【语篇解读】这是一篇新闻报道。本文主要介绍了南澳大利亚州向国家红火蚁根除计划额外拨款1710万美元，用于对抗红火蚁。【12题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段关键句“Theymightbeonly2-6mmlong,buttheycandestroycropsandmachinery,andmakeyards,parks,andfarmlandsunusable.Theycanalsodamageelectricalequipmentincludingstreetlightsandtelecommunicationnetworks.(它们可能只有2-6mm长，但它们会破坏农作物和机械，使院子、公园和农田无法使用。它们还会损坏包括路灯和电信网络在内的电气设备。)”可知，本段介绍了红火蚁会破坏农作物和机械，还会损坏电气设备，由此可知，第二段主要介绍的是红火蚁的影响。故选B项。【13题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线单词上句“Buttheycanspreadtonewterritoryquickly.(但它们可以迅速传播到新的领域。)”可知，红火蚁的传播速度非常快，由此可知，下文指研究人员在新南威尔士州北部发现了五个巢穴，“Detected”意为“发现，查明”，能够表达画线单词在句中的意思。故选D项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段关键句“ReecePianta,AdvocacyManagerwiththeInvasiveSpeciesCouncil,said“Fireantsareoneoftheworld’sworstsuper-pestsandiftheyareallowedtospread,theireconomicimpactwillbegreaterthanrabbits,feralcatsandfoxescombined.(入侵物种委员会的宣传经理ReecePianta说：“火蚁是世界上最严重的超级害虫之一，如果允许它们传播，它们带来的经济影响将超过兔子、野猫和狐狸的总和。)”可知，ReecePianta说红火蚁带来的经济影响将超过兔子、野猫和狐狸的总和，由此可知，根据ReecePianta的说法，红火蚁会带来巨大的经济损失。故选A项。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段内容“Recently,SouthAustraliahascommittedanadditional$17.1milliontotheNationalFireAntEradicationProgramtofightagainstoneoftheworld’smostinvasivepests—theredimportedfireant.(最近，南澳大利亚州向国家红火蚁根除计划额外拨款1710万美元，用于对抗世界上最具入侵性的害虫之一——红火蚁。)”可知，本文是一篇新闻报道，报道了南澳大利亚州为根除红火蚁，拨款1710万美元的事情，“MillionsAddedtoFightDeadlyFireAnts”意为“数百万美元加入抗击致命火蚁的行列”，能够概括文章主要内容。故选B项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，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。BrainexercisestoimprovememoryMemoryisanintellectualabilitytocollect,storeandrecalleventsthatpeoplehaveexperiencedinthepast.Notmanyofuscanboastofagoodmemory.Scientistshavefoundadirectrelationshipbetweenexercisesandbrainhealth.Herearesomebrainexercisestoimprovememory.StudyinganewlanguageThisisagoodwaytoenhancetheabilityofthinkingandgatheringinformationtothebrain.Youwillprobablyfinditdifficulttomemorizethevocabularyofaforeignlanguage.___16___Learninganewlanguagehelpsthebrainworkcontinuouslyandimprovesmemory.Focusingwithin8secondsYoushouldfocusthinkingaboutsomethingtoremember(anniversaryforgrandparents,classmeetingtime···)within8seconds.8secondsseemstobeaveryshorttime.Howeveritisthetimenecessarytomoveinformationfromshort-termmemoryintolong-termmemoryofthepeople.___17___Therefore,youshouldapplyandpracticeeveryday.Positivethinking___18___Havingacomfortablelifeistheaimofthisbrainexercisetoimprovememory.Lifeandspiritarealwayshappytohaveanplentifulstrengthandatoughnessmemory.Anoptimisticmindset,lovelifewillincreasetheworkefficiencyofthebrainandhelpyouavoiddepression,andbringyoumuchjoyandhappiness.___19___It’sveryeasytodothisexercise.Youcloseyoureyes,countthecolorofthelettersinorderintheGooglename,orthenameofthestoresinfrontofyourhouse,thenyoucheckforaccuracy.Youshouldgraduallyincreasethedifficultyoftheexercisestogetsharpmemory.Youcanalsodobrainexercisetoimprovememoryfrom:writedownabunchofwords,readonceandthinkquicklytoseehowmanywordsyoucanremember.___20___A.ClosingyoureyesB.BuildupyourvocabularyC.Youshouldstartwith10wordsandincreasegradually.D.Regularlyreadarticlesandnewlistsofwordstohaveahealthybrain.E.Thisisactuallyamethodthatsomestudieshavetestedandconfirmed.F.Butthemoredifficulttoremember,themorebrainfunctionworkproperly.G.Themethodisalwaysthinkingaboutabetterfuture:simplelife,happyfamily,goodchildren.【答案】16.E17.F18.G19.A20.C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍几种大脑锻炼提高记忆力的方法。【16题详解】根据上文“Thisisagoodwaytoenhancetheabilityofthinkingandgatheringinformationtothebrain.Youwillprobablyfinditdifficulttomemorizethevocabularyofaforeignlanguage.(这是一个很好的方式来提高思维能力和收集信息的大脑。你可能会发现记住一门外语的词汇很困难)”以及后文“Learninganewlanguagehelpsthebrainworkcontinuouslyandimprovesmemory.(学习一门新语言有助于大脑持续工作，提高记忆力)”可知，本句与上文构成转折，指出困难对于大脑工作的影响，下文补充说明，学习一门新语言有助于大脑持续工作并提高记忆力。故F项“但是越难记住，大脑功能就越能正常工作”符合上下文逻辑关系。故选F。【17题详解】根据上文“Youshouldfocusthinkingaboutsomethingtoremember(anniversaryforgrandparents,classmeetingtime···)within8seconds.8secondsseemstobeaveryshorttime.Howeveritisthetimenecessarytomoveinformationfromshort-termmemoryintolong-termmemoryofthepeople.(你应该在8秒内集中精力想一些值得记住的事情（祖父母的纪念日，班会时间）。8秒似乎是很短的时间。然而，将信息从短期记忆转移到人们的长期记忆是必要的时间)”上文提到8秒可以将信息从人们的短期记忆转移到长期记忆，由此可知本句对这一方法的作用进行总结。故E项“这实际上是一种经过一些研究测试和证实的方法”符合上下文逻辑关系。故选E。【18题详解】根据后文“Havingacomfortablelifeistheaimofthisbrainexercisetoimprovememory.Lifeandspiritarealwayshappytohaveanplentifulstrengthandatoughnessmemory.Anoptimisticmindset,lovelifewillincreasetheworkefficiencyofthebrainandhelpyouavoiddepression,andbringyoumuchjoyandhappiness.(有一个舒适的生活是这种大脑锻炼的目的，以提高记忆力。生活和精神总是快乐的，拥有丰富的力量和坚韧的记忆。一个乐观的心态，热爱生活将提高大脑的工作效率，帮助你避免抑郁，并给你带来许多快乐和幸福)”可知，本段主要讲述，本句应陈述积极乐观的事。故G选项“这个练习方法就是时刻想着美好的未来：简单的生活、幸福的家庭、优秀的孩子”符合语境。故选G。【19题详解】根据后文“It’sveryeasytodothisexercise.Youcloseyoureyes,countthecolorofthelettersinorderintheGooglename,orthenameofthestoresinfrontofyourhouse,thenyoucheckforaccuracy.(做这个练习很容易。你闭上眼睛，按顺序数出谷歌名字中字母的颜色，或者你家门前商店的名字，然后检查准确性)”可知，该段讲述另一个大脑锻炼提高记忆力的方法，A选项Closingyoureyes对应后文closeyoureyes。A选项“闭上眼睛”，与后文具体做法陈述一致。故选A。【20题详解】根据上文“Youcanalsodobrainexercisetoimprovememoryfrom:writedownabunchofwords,readonceandthinkquicklytoseehowmanywordsyoucanremember.(你也可以通过大脑锻炼来提高记忆力：写下一堆单词，读一次，快速思考，看看你能记住多少单词)”叙述，您还可以通过进行大脑锻炼来提高记忆力：写下一堆单词，读一次并快速思考，看看您能记住多少单词，故本句承接上文，进行补充说明。故C选项“你应该从10个单词开始，然后逐渐增加”符合语境，故选C。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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Manypeopledreamofwalkingacrosstheircollegegraduationstagetoacceptthediploma(毕业文凭)thatthey’veworkedsohardfor.InAlfonsoGonzales’case,thatmomentwas____21____.Althoughattheageof96,Gonzales____22____,notwalked,acrossthestage,themomentwasstilleverythinghehopedfor.Astheentirecrowdofstaffandstudents____23____theirhandswarmly,Gonzalesraisedhishandin____24____withasmilethatlituptheentireroom.IttookGonzalessixdecadesto____25____thedegreehestartedouttofinish.Hefirststartedtowardshisdegreeasazoology(动物学)studentin1947.Butreallifewasnoteasy.Ashebegan____26____withhisbrothers,henevermadetimeto____27____attendhisschool’sgraduation.Yearslater,whenhisdaughtertriedtohelphimby____28____thediplomaforhim,thefamilywas____29____tolearnthatheactuallylackedonlyonecreditforgraduation.Theschool,____30____,createdaone-credit____31____justforGonzalessohecouldcompletehisdegree.“Ididthisformyfamily,”Gonzalessaidattheceremony.“Ididthisto____32____them.”GonzalesearnedhiscollegedegreefromUSCin2016,makinghimtheschool’s____33____graduate.Andafterallthathardwork,the____34____collegegraduatehadonlyonebigplan.“I’mgoingtotakemynap(小睡),”he___35___withasmile.We’dsaythat’sonenapwell-earned.21.A.regular
