(结论是大黄蜂可以传递某些行为)”可知，爱丽丝·布里奇斯的实验表明大黄蜂之间相互学习，互相传递某种行为，这是一种文化形式，由此可推知，动物的学习行为暗示了一种文化形式。故选B。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Afteralong,busyyear,manyofusfeeltheitchtotravelagain.Areyouplanningtopackthecar?____36____Sculptedbywindandwateroverthousandsofyears,theremotecanyons(峡谷)andplateausofsoutheasternUtahwereamongthelastpartsoftheAmericanWesttobeseenbytravelersfromtheEast.Inthosedays,thetoweringcliffsandwindingvalleysmadeaterriblebarriertoexploration.____37____Today,thatroughlandscapeishometosomeofthemostpopularnationalparksinthecountry.____38____Theyboastdramaticdesertlandscapeswithtallarches(拱门),deepcanyons,andreachfortheskyrocks.You’llneedseveraldaystotakeinallthenaturalwondersstartingwithhanginggardensatZionNationalPark.Theviewsheremaymakeyoufeelasifyou’reflying,especiallyatAngelsLanding,whichsticksout1,488feetabovetheriver.Nextup,howaboutatriptotheredplanet?TheredsandstoneofCapitolReefNationalParksoresemblesthelookoftheredplanetthataMarsDesertResearchStationislocatedhere.____39____ArchesNationalPark,an“outerspacewonderland”withmorethan2,000giantsandstonerocks,isthelargestcollectionofnaturalarchesonourplanet.BonusfortheStarWarsfans:Ifyoudiscoveranewcolorfularch,yougettonameit.Finally,driveontotheneedlerocksandremotecanyonscarvedbytheColoradoandGreenRiversatneighboringCanyonlandsNationalPark.Thevastwildernessareaofferscrowdfreeexperiencesinitsremotereaches.____40____A.Whatadifferenceacenturyortwocanmake!B.However,thesenationalparkswereoncehardtoexplore.C.Afterwards,drive130milesnorthforanotherotherworldlysight.D.Farfromthebustlingnoise,youwilljustfeelasenseofpeaceandquiet.E.Letthesebreathtakingdrivesinspireyourplans—andyourtraveldreams.F.Ifyou’veneverheardofit,that’sbecauseUtahnsaretryingtokeepittothemselves.G.Thesenationalparks,togethercalledtheMightyFive,showcaseUtah’suniquewilderness.【答案】36.E37.A38.G39.C40.D【解析】【导语】本文为一篇旅游指南。文章主要介绍了美国犹他州东南部的一些著名国家公园和自然景观，包括它们的特色、历史和游览建议，旨在激发读者的旅行兴趣和计划。【36题详解】根据空前“Areyouplanningtopackthecar?(你打算收拾行李开车吗？)”以及下文描述自然景观可推测，空处需要一个能够引出下文内容的句子。选项E“Letthesebreathtakingdrivesinspireyourplans—andyourtraveldreams.(让这些令人惊叹的驾车之旅激发你的计划和旅行梦想吧。)”符合语境，既承接了上文关于旅行的提问，又引出了下文关于驾车旅行去欣赏自然美景的内容。故选E。【37题详解】根据空前“Inthosedays,thetoweringcliffsandwindingvalleysmadeaterriblebarriertoexploration.(在那些日子里，高耸的悬崖和蜿蜒的山谷成为探索的巨大障碍。)”以及空后“Today,thatroughlandscapeishometosomeofthemostpopularnationalparksinthecountry.(如今，那片崎岖的地形已成为这个国家一些最受欢迎的国家公园的所在地。)”可知，高耸的悬崖和蜿蜒的山谷有了很大的变化。选项A“Whatadifferenceacenturyortwocanmake!(一两百年间竟能有如此大的变化啊！)”能够体现出这种过去与现在的巨大反差，起到承上启下的作用，符合文意。故选A。【38题详解】根据下文内容“Theyboastdramaticdesertlandscapeswithtallarches(拱门),deepcanyons,andreachfortheskyrocks.You’llneedseveraldaystotakeinallthenaturalwondersstartingwithhanginggardensatZionNationalPark.Theviewsheremaymakeyoufeelasifyou’reflying,especiallyatAngelsLanding,whichsticksout1,488feetabovetheriver.(它们有着引人注目的沙漠景观，有高大的拱门、幽深的峡谷以及高耸入云的岩石。你需要花上几天时间才能领略完所有的自然奇观，就从锡安国家公园的悬垂花园开始吧。这里的景色可能会让你感觉仿佛在飞翔，尤其是在“天使降临”景点处，它高出河面1488英尺。)”可知，本文描述了锡安国家公园，而接下来又介绍了国会礁国家公园、拱门国家公园以及峡谷地国家公园等。选项G“Thesenationalparks,togethercalledtheMightyFive,showcaseUtah’suniquewilderness.(这些国家公园，统称为‘壮丽五园’，展现了犹他州独特的荒野风貌。)”能够总领后文对这些公园的介绍，符合逻辑。故选G。【39题详解】根据空前“Nextup,howaboutatriptotheredplanet?TheredsandstoneofCapitolReefNationalParksoresemblesthelookoftheredplanetthataMarsDesertResearchStationislocatedhere.(接下来，去红色星球来一场旅行怎么样？国会礁国家公园的红色砂岩与火星的外观极为相似，以至于一个火星沙漠研究站就设在此处。)”可知，上文介绍了国会礁国家公园。选项C“Afterwards,drive130milesnorthforanotherotherworldlysight.(之后，向北行驶130英里，去领略另一种超凡脱俗的景色。)”符合介绍完一处景点后接着指引去下一处景点的行文逻辑，起到了过渡作用。故选C。【40题详解】根据上文“Thevastwildernessareaofferscrowdfreeexperiencesini
