3【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了边缘艺术节的起源和发展情况。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“FringeFestivalsareacelebrationofstrangeart.Theyhaveallkindsofperformers—fromdancers,musiciansandactorstoeverythinginbetween.(边缘艺术节是奇怪艺术的庆典。它们有各种各样的表演者,从舞者、音乐家和演员到介于两者之间的一切)”可知,各种各样的表演者可能在边缘艺术节表演奇怪的艺术。由此推知,奇怪的艺术爱好者可能对边缘艺术节感兴趣。故选A项。【9题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段“ArtistsfromaroundtheworldtraveledtoScotlandfortheEdinburghInternationalFestival.Theyperformedatartscentersthroughoutthecity.Eightlocaltheatercompaniesdidnotreceiveaninvitation,however.Inresponse,theyperformedatsmallerspacesaroundEdinburgh.Theseartistsperformedwherevertheycould,includingchurchesandevenonthestreet.TheystartedtheirownculturaleventandnamedittheEdinburghFestivalFringe.(来自世界各地的艺术家前往苏格兰参加爱丁堡国际艺术节。他们在全市的艺术中心演出。然而,八家当地剧院公司没有收到邀请。作为回应,他们在爱丁堡周围较小的空间演出。这些艺术家尽可能在任何地方表演,包括教堂甚至街头。他们开始了自己的文化活动,并将其命名为爱丁堡边缘艺术节)”可知,八家当地剧院公司没有收到邀请参加爱丁堡国际艺术节,所以这些艺术家们开始了自己的文化活动,并将其命名为边缘艺术节,所以第二段主要介绍了第一届边缘艺术节是怎样产生的。故选B项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段“TheCapitalFringeFestivaltakesplaceindifferentlocationsthroughouttheD.C.area.Someperformanceshappenintraditionaltheaters.Othershappeninunusualsettingslikeold,emptybuildingsorstoresafterbusinesshoursareover.(首都边缘艺术节在整个华盛顿地区的不同地点举行。有些表演在传统剧院进行。其他表演发生在不寻常的环境中,如旧的、空的建筑物或营业时间结束后的商店里)”可知,首都边缘艺术节没有固定的庆祝场所。故选B项。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“BrienzasaysthepurposeofFringefestivalsistoexplorethelimitsofartinuniqueenvironments.Since2006,theeventhasmademorethan$1.7million.ItisthesecondlargestFringeFestivalintheU.S.anditspopularityhasgrowneveryyear.(布里恩扎说,边缘艺术节的目的是探索艺术在独特环境中的极限。自2006年以来,这项活动已经赚了170多万美元。这是美国第二大的边缘艺术节,它的受欢迎程度每年都在增长)”可知,边缘艺术节探索艺术在独特环境中的极限,且边缘艺术节的受欢迎程度每年都在增长,所以布里恩扎认为边缘艺术节可以让不寻常的艺术也可以得到机会。故选D项。01【山东省济南市2022-2023学年高三开学摸底考试】Somescientistshavetracedtheincreaseinearthquakes,especiallyinareasnotknownforthepresenceoffaultlinesorpastseismic(地震的)activity,tohumanactions.Theideaofhumanscausingearthquakesmayseemstrangeatfirst.Afterall,youcanrunaroundyourbackyardandjumpupanddownasyouwant,andthegroundisn’tgoingtostartshaking.However,scientistshaveidentifiedavarietyoflargescalehumanactivitiesthatcanresultin公司

5【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍的是一些地震是人类活动造成的,并介绍了哪些人类活动会造成地震。【12题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线短语句中“pastseismic(地震的)activity”(过去的地震活动)和“tohumanactions”(人类行为)可知,科学家追踪的是由人类活动引起的地震,而不是一些容易发生地震的地区,“or”前后的“faultlines”和“pastseismic(地震的)activity”为选择关系,由此可知,“faultlines”指的也是一些容易发生地震的地区。故选D项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“AscompaniesdrilldeeperanddeeperbelowEarth’ssurfacetogetnaturalresources,holesleftbehindcancauseinstabilitythatleadstocollapsesthatcauseearthquakes.”(随着公司在地球表面下越来越深地钻探以获取自然资源,留下洞可能导致不稳定,导致崩塌,引发地震。)可知,采矿留下的洞可能导致岩石不稳定,引发地震;再根据第三段关键句“Inthisprocess,water,sandandchemicalsarepressedundergroundunderhighpressuretobreakrockstoreleasenaturalresources.”(在这个过程中,水、沙子和化学物质在高压下被压入地下,以破碎岩石,释放自然资源。)可知,石油生产使用的高压破碎岩石,导致岩石不稳定,引发地震,由此可知,采矿和石油生产的共同点在于它们破坏了岩石的稳定性。故选B项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段内容“Buildinglargedamscanalsocauseearthquakes.Forexample,about80,000peoplediedinChinain2008asaresultofa7.9-magnitudeearthquakecausedby320milliontonsofwaterthathadbeencollectedintheZipingpuReservoirafteralargedamwasbuiltoveraknownfaultline.”(建造大型水坝也会引起地震。例如,2008年,中国发生了7.9级地震,造成约8万人死亡。这场地震是由于紫坪铺水库在一条已知断层线上修建了一座大型水坝后,收集了3.2亿吨水造成的。)可知,紫坪铺水库在一条已知断层线上修建了一座大型水坝,引发了地震,由此可知,大坝的位置非常重要,不应该建在断层线上。故选D项。【15题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第二段关键句“Scientistshaveconfirmedover700placeswherehumanactivitieshavecausedearthquakesoverthelastcentury.”(科学家们已经确认了上个世纪人类活动造成地震的700多个地方。)可知,本文主要介绍的是一些地震是人类活动造成的,并介绍了哪些人类活动会造成地震,“Humansaretoblameforsomeearthquakes”意为“有些地震是人类造成的”,选项能够概括文章主要内容。故选C项。02【湖南省长沙市长郡中学2022-2023学年高三上学期入学考试】Alargebodyofresearchhasbeendevelopedinrecentyearstoexplainmanyaspectsofwillpower.Mostoftheresearchersexploringself-controldosowithanobviousgoalinmind:Howcanwillpowerbestrengthened?Ifwillpoweristrulyalimitedresource,astheresearchsuggests,whatcanbedonetomakeitstaystrong?Avoidingtemptation(诱惑)isaneffectivemethodformaintainingself-controlwhichiscalledthe“outof公司

7【分析】这是一篇议论文。短文列举了关于意志力的几种研究和观点,作者认为有了明确的目标,良好的自我监督和练习,就可以在面对诱惑时使意志力保持坚强。【8题详解】细节推理题。根据第三段Researchersdon’tbelievethatone’swillpowerisevercompletelyexhausted.Rather,peopleappeartoholdsomewillpowerinreserve,savedforfuturedemands.可知,研究人员不相信人的意志力会完全耗尽,他们还有备用的和为将来需求节省的意志力。所以从文章中的研究我们了解到意志力几乎没有完全丧失。故C选项正确。【9题详解】猜测词义题。由第三段“Therightmotivationallowsustotapintothosereserves,allowingustocarryonevenwhenourself-controlstrengthhasbeenrundown.”可知,正确动机使我们能够利用这些储备,即使我们的自我控制能力已经被消耗殆尽,我们仍然可以继续前进。所以通过上下文的语境,判断出“tapinto”指利用,与makeuseof同义。故A选项正确。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段Whilemusclesbecomeexhaustedbyexerciseintheshortterm,theyarestrengthenedbyregularexerciseinthelongterm.Similarly,regularpracticesofself-controlmayimprovewillpowerstrength.可知,虽然肌肉在短期内会因运动而疲惫不堪,但长期而言,它们会通过经常锻炼而增强。同样规律的自我控制可以提高意志力。两者相比是为了说明同一个道理:长期的锻炼和自我控制的好处。所以作者把自我控制比作肌肉是为了解释自我控制的好处。故D选项正确。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Takinggoalsonebyoneisabetterapproach.Onceagoodhabitisinplace,you’llnolongerneedtodrawonyourwillpowertomaintainthebehavior.Eventuallyhealthyhabitswillbecomeroutine,andwon’trequiremakingdecisionsatall.可知,作者认为一个接一个的制定目标是一个更好的方法。一旦养成好习惯,你就不再需要依靠意志力来维持自己的行为。最终健康的习惯将成为惯例,而且不需要做任何决定。所以C项“IwillreadanEnglishnoveleverymonth.”是先设立目标,然后成为好习惯,作者更喜欢这种目标。故C选项正确。【点睛】根据事物的定义或者对事物总体的概括,从而判断出哪些具体事物或者具体的实践应该属于定义的范围或者是概括的范围是我们经常见到的推理判断题的题型。要解决这样的判断题,首先要讲对事物的定义或者对事物的总体概括要读清楚,然后根据对比4个选项,哪个选项在定义或者概括范围内的。哪个就是正确的答案。由倒数第二段Takinggoalsonebyoneisabetterapproach.Onceagoodhabitisinplace,you’llnolongerneedtodrawonyourwillpowertomaintainthebehavior.Eventuallyhealthyhabitswillbecomeroutine,andwon’trequiremakingdecisionsatall.可知,作者认为一个接一个的制定目标是一个更好的方法。一旦养成好习惯,你就不再需要依靠意志力来维持自己的行为。最终健康的习惯将成为惯例,而且不需要做任何决定。C项“IwillreadanEnglishnoveleverymonth.”是先设立目标,然后成为好习惯,作者更喜欢这种目标。故小题4的正确选项为C选项。02【湖南省长沙市长郡中学2022-2023学年高三上学期入学考试】公司

9【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讨论合成技术带来的挑战。【12题详解】细节理解题。由第一段中的“MidwaythroughTheMatrix,Cypherfeastsonanenormoussteak,wellawarethathisrealityisnotreal,partofadigitalprogramtellinghisbrainthatthesteakisaconstructionandthatitis“juicyanddelicious.”(在《黑客帝国》中,塞弗享用着一块巨大的牛排,他清楚地意识到自己的现实并不是真实的,这是一个数字程序的一部分,数字程序告诉他的大脑,牛排是一个结构,而且“多汁美味”)”可知,塞弗知道自己处于虚拟现实,牛排是数字构造出来的,他是在虚拟世界中享受牛排。故选B项。【13题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中的“Ithasbeenestimatedthatcultured(培育的)meatwouldrequire7to45percentlessenergyandproduce78to96percentlessgreenhousegasthanconventionalanimalsfarmedforconsumption.Butoncewe’reabletosynthesizemeat,theoretically,we’llhavethecapabilitytoculturemeatfromanyanimal(据估计,与传统养殖食用动物相比,培养肉(即合成肉)所需能源减少7%至45%,产生的温室气体减少78%至96%)”可知,合成肉所需要的能源更少,所产生的温室气体也更少。所以合成肉更环保。故选C项。【14题详解】推理判断题。由第四段中的“In2021,scientistsinsomecountriesannouncedtheyhadgrownmonkeyembryosinjectedwithhumanstemcells.Herecomesthesituationworthconsidering:suchamonkey-humanhybridwilldemonstratequalitiesthataresomewherebetweenhumans,onwhichexperimentationisn’tallowed,andanimals,whichareoftenraisedspecificallyforresearch.Howwillwedecidewhenananimalbecomestoohuman?(2021,一些国家的科学家宣布他们已经用人类干细胞注射了猴子胚胎。下面是一个值得考虑的情况:这种人猴杂交将展示出介于人类和动物之间的品质,人类不允许进行实验,而动物通常是专门为研究而饲养的。我们将如何决定动物何时变得过于人性化?)”可知,作者指出该实验对象既表现出人的某些特点(这一部分不允许被实验)也有动物的特点,作者提出的疑问表现出对此实验持有谨慎的态度。故选A项。【15题详解】推理判断题。文章第一段以《黑客帝国》片段引出合成肉话题,第二段指出合成技术有朝不可预料方向发展的趋势,第三四段以两个例子(合成肉带来的管控挑战和基因合成可能出现的伦理问题)说明合成技术的发展伴随着挑战,文章的目的在于指出合成技术的挑战。故选B项。03【广东省2022-2023学年新高三开学大联考】QueenElizabethII’sfaceisoneverynoteandcoinintheUnitedKingdom,butstilllittleisknownabouthowmuchmoneyshehaspersonally,howshegetsitandwhostandstoinherit(继承)it.WhatwedoknowfrompublicrecordsisthattheQueenreceivesatleast$20millioninannualincomethroughherprivateestate,andanother100milliondollarsfromtheUKgovernmenteachyear.公司

22containafibrecalledpectin(果胶)whichstickstocholesterolinthebody,slowingtheirabsorption.”(此外,苹果含有一种称为果胶的纤维,这种纤维粘附在体内的胆固醇上,减缓其吸收。)可知,苹果对健康有益,因为其中含有多酚和果胶,多酚可能通过降低血液粘度和胆固醇水平来保护我们的身体,果胶也可以减缓胆固醇的吸收,由此可知,文中提到多酚和果胶是为了阐明苹果是如何对我们的健康产生作用的。故选D项。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据画线短语句中“includingbothfruitandvegetables”(包括水果和蔬菜)可知,句中的数字“5”指的是水果和蔬菜共五份,由此可知,句中指卫生部建议每天摄入五份水果和蔬菜,画线短语“5-a-day”指每天五份水果和蔬菜。故选D项。【31题详解】推理判断题。通读全文,结合第一段关键句“Todayapplescontinuetoastonishinmedicine,withheadlinesreportingthatanappleadayreallydoeshavehealthbenefits.”(今天,苹果在医学上继续令人惊讶,新闻摘要报道每天一个苹果确实对健康有益。)可知,本文主要介绍了吃苹果对健康的好处,由此可知,本篇文章有可能出自一本健康杂志。故选B项。06【河北省保定市部分学校2022-2023学年高三上学期开学考试】Emergingeconomiesstruggledtogrowthroughthe2010sandpessimismcoversthemnow.PeoplewonderhowtheywillpaydebtsduringtheCOVID-19andhowtheycangrowrapidlyastheydidinthepastinaneraofdeglobalisation(去全球化).Thefreshestofmanyanswerstothisissueisthefast-spreadingdigitalrevolution.Thedigitalrevolutionisalreadyasprogressiveinemergingeconomiesasdevelopedones.Amongthetop30nationsbyincomefromdigitalservicesasashareofgrossdomesticproduct(GDP),16areintheemergingworld.Indonesia,forexample,isfurtheradvancedbythismeasurethanFranceorCanada.Andsince2017,digitalincomehasbeengrowinginemergingcountriesatanaverageannualpaceof26percent,comparedwith11percentinthedevelopedones.Howcanitbethatpoorernationsareadoptingcommondigitaltechnologiesfasterthantherich?Oneexplanationishabitanditsabsence.Insocietiesfilledwithphysicalstoresandservices,customersareoftencomfortablewiththemandslowtoabandontheproviders.Incountrieswherepeoplehavedifficultyevenfindingabankoradoctor,theywilljumpatthefirstdigitaloptionthatcomesalong.Outsidershaveahardtimegraspingtheimpactdigitalservicescanhaveonunderserved(服务不足的)populations.Nationslackinginschools,hospitalsandbankscanquicklybridgethesegapsbyestablishingonlineservices.Thoughonly5percentofKenyanscarrycreditcards,morethan70percenthaveaccesstodigitalbanking.It’searlydays,too.AseconomistCarlotaPerezhasshown,techrevolutionslastalongtime.Innovationslikethecarandthesteamenginewerestilltransformingeconomieshalfacenturylater.Now,thefadingeraofglobalisationwilllimitthenumberofemergingmarkets,buttheeraofrapiddigitisationhasonlyjustbegun.Thisoffersmanydevelopingeconomiesarevolutionarynewpathtocatchupwiththelivingstandardsofthedevelopedworld.32.Whatcanweknowaboutthedigitalrevolution?A.Itincreasespeople’sdebtsindeglobalisation.公司

26usingsarcasm——asign,perhaps,ofamoreadult-likecynicism(愤世嫉俗)thatconflictswiththeirimpressionsoftheirchildren’syouthfulinnocence.(当父母注意到他们的孩子使用讽刺时,最初可能会感到震惊——这可能是一种更像成年人的玩世不恭的迹象,这与他们对孩子年轻天真的印象相冲突。)”由此判断,家长认为孩子的讽刺与他们的实际年纪不相符,并不适合孩子的年纪。故选C。【11题详解】推理判断题。文章第一段最后一句提到“Parentsorteachersofteenagers,inparticular,mayfindithardtobelievethatitisactuallyasignofaflexibleandinventivemind.(特别是青少年的父母或老师,可能很难相信这实际上是灵活和创造性思维的标志。)”作者首先陈述了家长和老师对于孩子会讽刺的态度,后文中通过介绍心理学家黄丽(LiHuang)的实验,证明讽刺对于人的创造力和脑力的刺激是有帮助的,且最后一段提到“Butshouldweblameteensforapplyingthishandytool?Perhapsit’sbetterseenastheusefulpracticeofavitalability.(但是我们应该责怪青少年使用这个方便的工具吗?也许它更应该被视为一种重要能力的有用实践。)”由此判断,讽刺对于青少年而言是由一定好处的。因此,作者写作目的应是展示青少年使用讽刺的积极作用。故选C。07【江苏省泰州中学2022-2023学年高三上学期期初调研考试】Sincetheearlytomid-2010s,socialmediaappshavemadeapermanenthomeinmanypeople’sphones,andspendingtimeonsocialmediahasbecomeasmuchofadailyactivityasdrinkingwater.Sincesomanypeopleareonitformuchoftheirdays—especiallykids,teens,andyoungadults—thereisincreasedconcernoverwhatsocialmediaisdoingtopeople.Manyarguethatsocialmediaisanunhealthywaytopassthetime,andthatfalseinformationfromonlineiscausingconfusionandpanic.Thistypeofthinghappenswitheverygenerationwhensomethingnewthatpeopledon’tunderstandcomesalong.Somanypeoplethoughtrock-and-rollwasmakingteensmorallybad,whichreallywasn’tthecase.Itisfairtosaythattheteenageyearsarehard,andthatteensneedanescape.Backbeforephones,teenswouldlistentorockmusicasaformofescapism,ortheywouldwatchTV,gotothemovies,skatearound,ordressupincrazyclothes.Unfortunately,allofthosethingsatonepointintimewereblamedforbeingabadinfluenceonyoungpeople.Socialmediaisthenewtuck-and-roll:it’sanewthing,andpeopledemonize(妖魔化)change.Forexample,manybelievethateverythingonsocialmediaappsisfiltered(加滤镜)andthatseeingperfectpeopleandtheirperfectlyeditedlivesoftenleadstolotsofnegativeemotions.However,models,magazinesandmovieshavebeenusingretouching(修整)toolsforphotosandmediasincePhotoshopandotherpost-productionserviceswereinvented.Socialmediahasmadeiteasiertoseemoreeditedpictures,butsocialmediaitselfisn’tmakingpeoplewanttolookacertainway.Peopleshouldacknowledgethatthesepicturesaren’tauthentic,andthepostsaremadetolookgoodonpurpose.Socialmediaishottoblameforbodyconfidenceissueswhenthethingspeoplewanttolooklikearen’tevenrealinthefirstplace.Itseemslikemostissuesaroundsocialmediaareusererrors,likeanyonecomplainingtherearetoomanypeoplebeingaddictedtosocialmedia.However,noteveryoneisaddictedtosocialmedia;peoplewhohaveanygrasponrealitywouldn’tspendeverywakingsecondonthephone.Itisreallyuptotheindividualhowtheyuse公司

33【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了三星公司Rathore和他的团队致力于将废弃的渔网回收再利用,并成功将其用于制作三星Galaxy系列手机,在这个突破之后,三星的目标是在未来的产品线中使用更多的升级循环材料。【8题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第一段的ghostnets(幽灵网)以及“they’reakiller.Fish,seabirds,andturtlesgetcaughtinthenettinganddie,withmorespeciesatrisk.(它们是杀手。鱼类,海鸟和海龟会被渔网捕获然后死亡,更多的物种面临灭绝的危险。)”可知海洋生物被渔网捕获后死亡,更多的物种面临灭绝的危险;第二段第一句“Muchshockedatthis,PranveerSinghRathore,amaterials-scienceengineerandmaterialsR&DmanageratSamsung,andhisteamsetthemselvesthetaskofgivingnewlifetothedeadlynets.(因对此感到非常震惊,三星的材料科学工程师和材料研发经理PranveerSinghRathore和他的团队为自己设定了为这个致命的网赋予新生命的任务。)”可知PranveerSinghRathore和他的团队想要赋予这个致命的网新生命,因为他们对此感到震惊,即对这个致命的网所带来的危害感到震惊才会想办法去解决这个问题,故推知划线单词this的意思是指上文提到的这个幽灵网给海洋生物所造成的威胁,故选D项。【9题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“It’snosmalltasktogivewastefishingnetsasecondact.Thenetsaretypicallymadeofasubstancecallednylonwhichtendstodramaticallydegrade(降解)thelongeritsitsintheoceanandisexposedtothesun.“Thismakesitnearlyimpossibletouseabandonedfishingnetsdirectly,”Rathoreexplains.Besides,high-performancesmartphone,tablet,orPChastobewaterproofandcansurvivesevereweather.Thenyloninthefishingnetsfallsfarshortofthatlevelofdurability(耐用).(让废旧渔网重获新生并不是一个小任务。这个网通常由一种称为尼龙的物质制成,这种物质在海洋中放置的时间越长,暴露在阳光下的时间越长,就会急剧降解。“这使得几乎不可能直接使用废弃的渔网,”Rathore解释说。此外,高性能智能手机、平板电脑或PC必须防水,并且能够承受恶劣的天气。渔网中的尼龙远远达不到那种耐用性的水平。)”可知本段内容主要讲述渔网主要成分是尼龙,在海洋中和阳光下时间越长越容易分解,不符合制作手机、电脑等所需材料的耐用性,所以几乎不能直接回收利用废弃的渔网,如果是几乎不能直接使用的东西又必须利用起来的话,那这之间必然存在着巨大困难;综上所述,故本段主要讲述重复使用幽灵网的难度很大,故选C项。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Lastmonth,SamsungrevealedanewlineofGalaxyproductsmadeinpartfromrecycledplasticfishingnetsforthefirsttime.(上个月,三星首次展示了由部分回收塑料渔网制成的Galaxy系列新产品。)”可知,Galaxy系列新产品的特别之处在于其含有从幽灵网中回收的材料,故选D项。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Todealwiththatproblem,Samsunglastsummerteamedupwithtwopartners:onetocollectandtransformthenetsintotinynylonpellets(颗粒)whiletheothertostrengthentheirtoughnessanddurability.Theendresult:Thepartnershituponaneco-friendlyandhigh-performanceplasticmaterialthat’sbeingusedtobuildthecomponentpartsforitslatestlineof公司

37includedinthepermanentcollectionofthiscenturies-oldartpalace(36岁的冯已经成为这个拥有数百年历史的艺术殿堂永久收藏的最年轻的珠宝艺术家)”可知,冯三十多岁的时候,他的作品就被博物馆收藏起来了。故选C。【29题详解】词句猜测题。根据第四段的“TheinspirationofFeuilledeGinkgocomesfromajourneytoJardindeGiverny,thebotanicalgardenthatinspiredClaudeMonet.(FeuilledeGinkgo的灵感来自于一次去Giverny花园的旅行,这个植物园给了克劳德·莫奈灵感。)”可知Feng的创作灵感来自于曾给予莫奈灵感的植物园,所以她为各色奇异的植物和花园的布局而深深着迷,划线词enchanted的意思是“着迷,入迷”,即fascinated,故选B。【30题详解】推理判断题。从第五段“Thetalentoftheyoungartistimpressedmesomuchthatwecouldn’tmissthisFeuilledeGinkgo.Comparingtothecenturies-oldartworksthatarepreviouslycollectedbythemuseum,Feng’suniqueartisticstylesymbolizesthefutureofjewelry.(这位年轻艺术家的才华给我留下了深刻的印象,我们不能错过这个银杏节。与之前被博物馆收藏的数百年前的艺术品相比,冯的独特艺术风格象征着珠宝的未来。)”可知,提到伊芙琳·波塞梅的目的是强调冯创作的意义。故选D。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“AsthefirstjewelryartistfromtheChinesemainlandwhogotinvited,sheisreadytoshowhercreationatParisAntiquesBiennaleinthecomingNovember.Preparetheworldtobeshocked.(作为第一个受邀的中国大陆珠宝艺术家,她已经准备好在即将到来的11月的巴黎古董双年展上展示她的作品。准备好震惊世界吧。)”可知,在最后一段之后最有可能被讨论的是她为即将到来的展览准备的最新艺术作品。故选A。10【湖南省部分校教育联盟2022-2023学年高三上学期入学摸底测】Despitethefactthatpeoplecan’tremembermuchbeforetheageof2or3researchsuggeststhatinfants(婴儿)canformmemories—justnotthekindsofmemoriesyoutellaboutyourself.Infact,therearelotsofdifferentkindsofmemoriesbesidesthosethatareautobiographical.Therearesemanticmemories,ormemoriesoffacts,likethenamesfordifferentvarietiesofapples,orthecapitalofyourhomestate.Therearealsoproceduralmemories,ormemoriesforhowtoperformanaction,likeopeningyourfrontdoorordrivingacar.But,ifinfantscanformmemoriesintheirfirstfewmonths,whydon’tpeoplerememberthingsfromthatearlieststageoflife?Itstillisn’tclearwhetherpeopleexperienceinfantilelossofmemorybecausewecan’tformautobiographicalmemories,orwhetherwejusthavenowaytoretakethem.Nooneknowsforsurewhat’sgoingon,butscientistshaveafewguesses.Oneisthatautobiographicalmemoriesrequireyoutohavesomesenseofself.Youneedtobeabletothinkaboutyourbehaviorwithrespecttohowitrelatestoothers.Researchershavetestedthisabilityinthepastusingamirrorrecognitiontaskcalledtherouge(胭脂)test.Itinvolvesmarkingababy’snosewithaspotofredlipstickorblush—or“rouge”astheysaidinthe1970swhenthetaskwascreated.Thenresearchersplacetheinfantinfrontofamirror.Infantsyoungerthan18monthsjustsmileatthecute公司

39period.”(最后,海马体是大脑中主要负责记忆的区域,在婴儿期没有完全发育。)可知,文章主要探索了为什么婴儿不能保留他们早期记忆的原因。故选C。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段前两句“Oneisthatautobiographicalmemoriesrequireyoutohavesomesenseofself.”(其一,自传式记忆要求你有一些自我意识。)和第三句“Researchershavetestedthisabilityinthepastusingamirrorrecognitiontaskcalledtherouge(胭脂)test.”(研究人员过去曾使用一种叫做胭脂测试的镜像识别任务来测试这种能力。)可知,胭脂测试的实施是为了检验婴儿的自我识别能力。故选B。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据倒第二段“Anotherpossibleexplanationisthatbecauseinfantsdon’thavelanguageuntillaterinthesecondyearoflife,theycan’tformnarrativesabouttheirownlivesthattheycanlaterrecall.”(另一种可能的解释是,因为婴儿直到第二年才会说话,所以他们无法对自己的生活形成后来能回忆起来的故事。)可知,婴儿在2到3岁时不能形成自传式记忆,所以科学家可能不会认同选项A所述。故选A。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“But,ifinfantscanformmemoriesintheirfirstfewmonths,whydon’tpeoplerememberthingsfromthatearlieststageoflife?”(但是,如果婴儿在最初几个月就能形成记忆,为什么人们不记得生命最初阶段的事情呢?)可知,文章研究的是生物学问题,所以应该来自一本科学杂志。故选D。11【河北省名校联盟2022-2023学年高三上学期开学考试】OnethingthatsetscyclingapartfrommostothersportsattheOlympicsistechnology.Withtheexceptionofafewothersports,suchassailingandrowing,mosteventsthattakeplaceattheSummerGamesusuallyjustcomedowntotheperformancesoftheathletes.Theytrytoswimandrunfaster,jumpandclimbhigher,liftandhitwithmorestrength.Incycling,thecompetitionissoclose-oftenahundredthofasecondseparatesriders-thatthedifferenceinwinningandlosingcanbefoundinthechain,thewheels,andeventhehelmetthattheychoosetowear.ThatiswhytheUSteammadeheadlinesatRio2016OlympicsGames,whenitrolledoutanewbikedesignthatmovedtheentiredrivechainfromtherightsidetotheleft.Itmightnotcatchtheattentionoftheaveragebicyclists,whoprobablydon’tevennoticewhichsidethedrivechainisontheirownbikes.ButitcausedplentyofoutcryfromtheOlympicCommittee,sinceOlympicrulesstatethatanybikeusedincompetitionmustbemadeavailabletothepublic.ButtheAmericanbike-makerFeltBicyclesonlysoldthenewbikestotheAmericanteam.Theprice?$25,999perbike.ThentheBritishadoptedamoretactful(圆滑的)strategy.ItteamedupwithbikemakerHopeTechnologytocreatesomethingextremelyexpensivefortheTokyoOlympicsGamesthisyear.Theframealonesellsforabout$23,500.Another$12,000forthewheels.Throwingintheexpensivesuits,oilforchains,andsunglassesandshoes,theinvestmentneededtocompeteforacyclingmedalcanbealmostunaffordableformostoftheathletes.8.Whichgamedependslessheavilyontechnology?公司

42directcontactwithwildanimals.Infectionbetweenhumanswasverylimited.”(早在20世纪80年代,猴痘还是一种极其罕见的疾病,科学家们一直警告说:随着时间的推移,猴痘疫情将会增加。当时,西非和中非每年只有大约50例猴痘病例,那里的人主要是通过直接接触野生动物感染这种疾病的。人与人之间的感染非常有限。)可知,在1980年代,猴痘疫情并不严重。故选C项。【13题详解】主旨大意题。根据第四段“Monkeypox,whosepresentversionkillslessthan1%ofpeopleinfected,iscloselyrelatedtosmallpox.Havingasmallpoxinfection-orasmallpoxvaccine(疫苗)-offersreallygoodprotectionagainstsmallpoxaswellasmonkeypox.Perhapsabout85%protection.Butinthelate1970s,theworldstoppedvacciningpeopleforsmallpox.Sooverthepastdecades,humanresistancetosmallpoxandmonkeypox-hasdroppedsharply.”(猴痘与天花密切相关,目前的猴痘病毒导致不到1%的感染者死亡。感染天花——或者接种天花疫苗——能有效预防天花和猴痘。大概85%的保护。但在20世纪70年代末,世界停止为人们接种天花疫苗。因此,在过去的几十年里,人类对天花和猴痘的抵抗力急剧下降。)可知,第四段主要是关于导致目前猴痘爆发的原因。故选A项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“Withoutsomeresistanceagainstthedisease,peoplearemorelikelytocatchmonkeypoxfromanimalsandspreadittosomeoneelse.Soitistimethatpeoplewhomightcomeintocontactwithinfectedpeoplewerevaccinedformonkeypox.”(如果对这种疾病没有一定的抵抗力,人们更有可能从动物身上感染猴痘,并将其传播给其他人。因此,是时候让可能接触到感染者的人接种猴痘疫苗了。)可推断,JoWalker可能会强烈建议各国政府为密接群体打疫苗。故选D项。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Indeed,thisnewoutbreakinEuropemaybeasignthatthevirushaschanged-evenifjustabit-andmaybeincreasingitsabilitytospreadamongpeople.”(事实上,这次在欧洲的新爆发可能是病毒发生变化的一个迹象——即使只是一点点——可能正在增强其在人群中传播的能力。)由此判断出,作者对目前欧洲爆发的疫情持担忧的态度。故选B项。公司
