【答案】63.C64.B65.A66.D

【导读】这篇文章主要讲述了一位名叫Eleanor的女性在哈佛大学比较动物学博物馆工作的经历。文章描述

了她如何通过自己的努力和才华成为一名技术员，为著名的生物多样性研究者E.O.Wilson的工作做出重要

贡献。同时，文章也提到了当时女性在这一领域的地位和作用，以及她们的贡献经常被忽视的问题。最后，

文章指出了Eleanor的工作对科学研究的持久影响，以及她对这一工作的重要性的认识。

【解析】

63.C解析：第一段和第二段分别介绍了Eleanor和Wilson的背景和工作情况。当时，Eleanor以技术员的

身份加入了哈佛大学比较动物学博物馆，而Wilson则是当时一个有前途的研究生。在Wilson转向研究小型、

不那么引人注目但具有生态意义的物种时，Eleanor作为技术员负责保存标本，为Wilson的工作提供支持。

64.B解析：第五段引用了一个最近发现的部门报告，其中包括这样的语句：“女助手做了大量的昆虫摊开和

设置工作”，“由于女助手的持续关照，收藏品没有受到害虫的侵扰这些引用显示了当时的报告中，并没

有明确提到女性的名字，从而减少了她们在团队中的作用。

65.A.当今的研究人员仍在享受Eleanor的工作带来的好处。

解析：最后两段提到，现在的部门功能类似于一个图书馆，年轻的科学家们在这里接受训练，并利用收藏

品进行研究和发现。因此，可以推断出当今的研究人员仍在从Eleanor的工作中受益。

66.D.她以非凡的速度、精确度和艺术性在幕后工作的女性

解析：根据文章内容，Eleanor是一位在哈佛大学比较动物学博物馆工作的技术员。她工作迅速而准确地处

理标本，为Wilson的工作做出了重要贡献。因此，D选项最符合描述Eleanor的特点。

【答案】63.C64.B65.C66.A

【解析】

【导读】这篇文章讨论了社交媒体和互联网使用对大脑的影响以及如何定义网瘾。41个州和哥伦比亚特区

对Facebook>Instagram>WhatsApp和Messenger的母公司Meta提出了诉讼，称该公司使用其平台上的功

能引起儿童过度使用它们。本文还介绍了关于行为成瘾的深层次问题，并探讨了互联网成瘾的定义和标准。

63：C.Meta被指控什么？它引诱孩子过度使用社交媒体。据第一段第一句话“Agroupof41statesandthe

DistrictofColumbiabeganalegalcaseagainstMeta,theparentcompanyofFacebook,Instagram,WhatsAppand

Messenger,insistingthatthecompanyknowinglyusedfeaturesonitsplatformstocausechildrentooverusethem.^^

可知，Meta被指控使用平台上的功能引起儿童过度使用它们，因此选择C。

64：B.根据DavidGreenfield的说法，用户往往会因为什么而沉迷于社交媒体和互联网？随机奖励的模式。

根据第二段的第二句话“Oneis"'intermittentreinforcement,whichcreatestheideathatausercouldgetareward

atanytime.Butwhentherewardcomesisunpredictable.”可知，其中之一是“间歇性强化”，它创造了一个用户

随时可以获得奖励的想法。但是，奖励何时到来是不可预测的。因此选择B。

65：C.第4段介绍的研究有什么结论？当前“互联网成瘾”的诊断标准并不令人满意。根据第四段的第一句

话“Formanyyears,thescientificcommunitytypicallydefinedaddictioninrelationtosubstances,suchasdrugs,

andnotbehaviors,suchasgamblingorinternetuse.Thathasgraduallychanged.”可知，多年来，科学界通常是将

成瘾定义为与物质（如毒品）相关，而不是与行为（如赌博或互联网使用）相关。但是，这种情况已经逐

渐改变。因此选择A。接着，文章讲到2013年，精神疾病诊断和统计手册（DSM-5）引入了“互联网游戏成

瘾”的概念。作者建议进一步探索诊断标准和语言，例如注意到术语“问题使用”甚至“互联网”这样的单词在

广泛解释的情况下，考虑到信息及其传递的许多形式。因此本题答案选C。

66：A.MichaelRich博士和DavidGreenfield都认为。适当使用互联网对孩子有益。根据第五

段的第一句话“Dr.MichaelRich,thedirectoroftheDigitalWellnessLabatBostonChildren'sHospital,saidhe

discouragedtheuseoftheword"addiction“becausetheinternet,ifusedeffectivelyandwithlimits,wasnotmerely

usefulbutalsoessentialtoeverydaylifb.”和第六段的第一句话“Greenfieldagreedthatthereclearlyarevaluable

usesfortheinternetandthatthedefinitionofhowmuchistoomuchcanvary.“可知，两位专家都认为适当使用互

联网对孩子有益。因此选择A。
