Ⅲ. 21．D　[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的“sheep are

33、 able to recognize human faces from photographs”可知，綿羊的不尋常之處在于它們能夠從照片中識別人臉，故選D。] 22．A　[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段首句“Initially，the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards.”可知，研究人員通過給綿羊食物獎勵來訓(xùn)練綿羊，故選A。] 23．B　[推理判斷題。由最后一段中的“That means they can be useful models to help...Our study gives

34、 us another way to monitor how these abilities change.”可以推斷出，該項(xiàng)新發(fā)現(xiàn)有益于對認(rèn)知能力改變的研究，故選B。] 24．C　[標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文可知這篇文章主要講了一項(xiàng)新的研究表明綿羊能夠從照片中識別人臉，故選C。] 25．B　[推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第二、三句“Unfortunately，these vehicles had several disadvantages and they didn’t sell very well.The problems were that the batteries of these el

35、ectric cars ran out very quickly and took a long time to recharge.”可知，這種電動汽車的電池很快就耗盡了，而且充電需要花很長時間，所以不受歡迎賣得不好。故選B。] 26．D　[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句“In a hybrid car，the engine is controlled by a computer which determines whether the car runs on petrol，electricity，or both.”可知，混合動力車的電腦決定該車是使用汽油、電力還是兩者兼用。故選D。] 27

36、．A　[代詞指代題。根據(jù)第五段中的“they have a much smaller engine than a traditional car”及“using materials such as aluminum and carbon fiber，which makes them extremely light”可知，更小的發(fā)動機(jī)和特殊的建造材料使混合動力車省油，所以Both of them指的是這兩者，故選A。] 28．C　[標(biāo)題歸納題。文章介紹了一種由電腦操控引擎、經(jīng)濟(jì)環(huán)保的混合動力汽車。C項(xiàng)(綠色環(huán)保車)概括了其主要優(yōu)點(diǎn)，適合作為本文標(biāo)題。] Ⅳ. 語篇解讀　作者想要減肥，但是他

37、不斷地?cái)z入大量脂肪，又因?yàn)榉N種原因放棄了鍛煉，最終減肥失敗。 29．B　[cook烹飪；order點(diǎn)菜，命令；design設(shè)計(jì)；introduce介紹。由上文中的“I was eating lunch in a restaurant”可知，此處指作者看著自己“點(diǎn)的食物”。] 30．A　[battle戰(zhàn)斗；competition競爭；performance表演；practice練習(xí)。下一句提到作者攝入大量脂肪，又喝蘇打水減肥，故可知作者非常矛盾，內(nèi)心做著激烈的“斗爭”。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 31．D　[burn燃燒；contain包含；lose失去；consume吃，喝，飲。作者打算消耗掉大

38、量的脂肪。故D項(xiàng)正確。] 32．C　[surprisingly令人驚訝地；happily高興地；unfortunately不幸地；hopefully有希望地。上一句提到作者想要減肥，但是不幸的是作者還不斷地?cái)z入大量脂肪，所以此處意為“不幸的是”。故C項(xiàng)正確。] 33．A　[come off從……掉下；pass away去世；take off起飛；turn away拒絕……進(jìn)入。作者不斷地?cái)z入大量脂肪，這是作者體重下降慢的原因。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 34．D　[equip裝備，使具有；connect連接；present頒發(fā)，呈現(xiàn)；reward獎賞。作者在跑步機(jī)上鍛煉半個小時后，用薯片來獎勵自己。

39、故D項(xiàng)正確。] 35．D　[agree同意；pretend假裝；imagine想象；decide決定。由后面的“so I just eat a lot at this time”可知，作者決定以后再也不吃薯片了，所以只在這次吃很多的薯片。故D項(xiàng)正確。] 36．A　[hurt危害，傷害；count數(shù)數(shù)；change改變；solve解決。作者認(rèn)為只吃一片薯片不會妨礙自己減肥，這是作者為自己吃薯片找的借口。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 37．B　[always一直，總是；sometimes有時候；seldom很少；never從不。由下一句“Once I put together two full weeks

40、 of eating properly...”可知，作者有時候減肥計(jì)劃實(shí)施得很好。故B項(xiàng)正確。] 38．C　[hardly幾乎不；instantly立即；regularly有規(guī)律地，定期地；slightly稍微地。由下文“I could bend over to tie my shoes more easily.”可知，作者的減肥計(jì)劃曾經(jīng)實(shí)施得很好。由此可知，作者曾經(jīng)有兩周堅(jiān)持合理飲食并經(jīng)常鍛煉。故C項(xiàng)正確。] 39．C　[urge迫切的要求；attraction吸引力；difference不同；pain痛苦。由下一句“I could bend over to tie my shoes m

41、ore easily.”可知，作者彎腰系鞋帶容易多了，說明作者開始感覺到不同了。故C項(xiàng)正確。] 40．B　[plan計(jì)劃；habit習(xí)慣；game游戲；hobby業(yè)余愛好。由該段最后一句中的“the habit of a sensible eating and exercising”可知，此處指正當(dāng)合理飲食和經(jīng)常鍛煉即將成為一個習(xí)慣時。故B項(xiàng)正確。] 41．D　[original最初的；common常見的；inspiring鼓舞人心的；tight緊的。由下一句作者熬夜工作可知，作者的工作期限很緊。故D項(xiàng)正確。] 42．A　[awake醒著的；calm冷靜的；healthy健康的；stro

42、ng強(qiáng)壯的。作者通過吃零食、喝蘇打水來保持清醒狀態(tài)。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 43．B　[goal目標(biāo)；memory記憶；reality現(xiàn)實(shí)；trend趨勢。熬夜使得作者沒有再堅(jiān)持合理的飲食和鍛煉，所以合理的飲食和鍛煉成為了一個“記憶”。故B項(xiàng)正確。] 44．C　[unbelievable難以置信的；changeable易變的；understandable可理解的；enjoyable愉快的。作者太疲憊了以至于不能堅(jiān)持鍛煉，這雖然不幸但是可以理解。故C項(xiàng)正確。] 45．C　[therefore因此；however但是；besides此外；otherwise否則。上一句提到作者太累以至于不能堅(jiān)持鍛煉。該句提到作者有大量工作要做。這都是作者放棄的原因，它們之間是并列關(guān)系，故C項(xiàng)正確。] 46．B　[lack缺乏；save儲存，節(jié)省；show展示；throw扔。大量的工作需要消耗作者所能儲存的所有能量。故B項(xiàng)正確。] 47．A　[once一旦；before以前；unless除非；though但是。一旦間斷鍛煉，以后就很容易經(jīng)常間斷。故A項(xiàng)正確。] 48．D　[choice選擇；fault缺點(diǎn)，過失；cause起因；excuse借口。作者認(rèn)為我們總是能夠找到理由不去做應(yīng)該做的事。每一個理由都是為自己開脫的借口。故D項(xiàng)正確。] 11
