【答案】第1題:C

第2題:C

第3題:C

第4題:D

第5題:D

【解析】1.細節事實題。題干詢問‘根據短文，下列哪個選項是正確的?’。A選項“在柯伊伯帶已發現比冥王星更大的巖石”和B選項“在冥王星被首次發現時，柯伊伯帶是不存在的”在文中沒有提及，排除；由最后一段第二句“TheynotethatPluto,infact,isdistinctfrommanyKuiperBeltobjects.他們注意到冥王星實際上不同于許多柯伊伯帶的天體。”確定D選項“冥王星與其它柯伊伯帶物體之間幾乎沒有差異”錯誤。由第三段第二句“Inonesense,thequestionofPluto'splanetarystatusisarcane,在某種意義上，冥王星的行星地位問題是晦澀難解的”和第四段中“Thedebatehasspilttheastronomicalcommunityfordecades.十年來，這個爭論一直困擾著天文學界，讓天文學界分成了持不同觀點的派系。”確定C選項“關于冥王星的地位，天文學家們出現了分歧”正確。

2.推理判斷題。題干詢問‘冥王星的行星地位從什么時候開始受到嚴肅的質疑?’。

文章第一段第一句“Eversinceitsdiscovery,Plutohasneverreallyfittedin.自從發現它以后，冥王星事實上一直未能融入太陽系。”根據第二段第二句“Yesterday,however,scientistsreleasedperhapsthemostconvincingevidenceyetthatPluto,infact,isnotaplanetatall.Forthefirsttime,astronomershavepeeredintoabeltofrocksbeyondPluto…然而，昨天，科學家們發布了可能是迄今為止最令人信服的證據，證明冥王星實際上根本不是一顆行星。天文學家們第一次觀測到冥王星以外的巖石帶。”和第四段最后一句“EvenbeforethedistantbandofrocksknownastheKuiperBeltwasfound,Pluto'sunusualbehaviormadeitsuspicious.甚至在遙遠的柯伊伯帶被發現之前，冥王星的異常行為就已經讓人產生了懷疑。”，確定C選項“當凱伯帶被發現時”符合題意，正確。

3.推理判斷題。題干詢問‘他說:“簡而言之，沒有。”(第7段)可改述為下列哪一項?’，所以答案在第七段。由第七段第一句“Tosome,theproblemisnotwithPluto,butthedefinitionof’’planet’.在一些人看來，這個問題（即冥王星是否是行星的問題）與冥王星無關，而是與對‘行星’的定義有關。”、第七段第二句“TotheGreeks,whocoinedtheterm,itmeant'wanderer",describingthewaythattheplanetsmovedacrossthenightskydifferentlyfromthestarsbehindthem.對于創造了“漫游者”一詞的希臘人來說，它的意思是“漫游者”，描述行星在夜空中移動的方式與它們背后的恒星不同。”及第七段最后一句“Today,withourmorenuancedunderstandingoftheuniverse,thewordnolongerhasmuchscientificmeaning.今天，隨著我們對宇宙更加細致入微的理解，這個詞不再有太多的科學意義。”確定C選項“對術語‘行星’仍沒有科學定義”正確。

4.細節事實題。題干詢問‘下面哪個選項不支持冥王星是我們“太陽系中最奇怪的行星”的說法?’。由第一段第二句“AfterthepaleandglowinggiantNeptune，itislittlemorethanacosmicdustmite,sweptthroughthefarthestreachesofthesolarsystem...蒼白,發光的巨頭海王星之后,它只不過是一個宇宙塵螨，橫掃最遠到達太陽系的……”確定B選項“它非常小”和C選項“它離太陽最遠”與原文一致；由第一段最后一句“thearcofitsorbitissoovalthatitoccasionallycrossesitsmassiveblueneighbor'spath.它的軌道呈橢圓形，偶爾會穿過它巨大的藍色鄰居的軌道。”確定A選項“它的軌道是很橢圓形的”與原文一致；所以用排除法，確定D選項“它主要地由塵埃和冰構成”符合題意。

5.詞匯題。題干詢問‘“紐約的海登天文館在兩年前引起了一場騷亂”(第8段)中的“騷動”一詞可以被替換為…’。由第八段第一句“supposedlydemotingPluto,lumpingitwiththeKuiperBeltobjectsinitshugemobileofthesolarsystem.據推測，冥王星將被降級，并與柯伊伯帶的巨大移動星系中的物體放在一起。”和第九段第一句“Still,manyareloathtopartwiththeplanetPluto.盡管如此，許多人還是不愿與冥王星分離。”確定D選項“公開爭論不休的混淆”符合語境，正確。

）humanobserversandgoabouttheirbusiness.

問題1選項

A.ambivalentabout...welcome

B.inhibitedby...seek

C.unawareof...avoid

D.habituatedto...disregard

【答案】D

【解析】固定短語詞義辨析。句意：因為在研究中的猴子們己經習慣了人類的存在，所以它們通常會無視人類觀察員而自己弄自己的。A選項ambivalentabout意為“對…是矛盾的”;B選項inhibitedby意為“被…抑制”;C選項unawareof意為“沒有意識到”；D選項habituatedto意為“適應于……”。分析題意可知，D選項“適應于”，正確。

第4題:B

第5題:D

【解析】1.推理判斷題。由第一段中第一句“awomanluckyenoughtohavethisfacewouldturnenoughheadstostirabreeze.—有幸擁有這樣一副姣好面容的女子，其回頭率一定會是百分百的。”可知C選項“一個絕色美女”正確；而A選項“實際上己經快30歲了”、B選項“約翰斯頓理想的女朋友”及D選項“是一位職業妓女”文中都未提到，排除。

2.細節事實題。題干意思是‘維克多?約翰斯頓合成了一張新面孔，結合了16歲…….特征’。由第二段中第二句“bydigitallyaveraging16randomlyselectedfemaleCaucasianfaces通過數字地平均16個任意選擇的女性白種人的面容”確定B選項“隨便選擇的白人女性”正確。

3.細節事實題。題干意思是‘盡管約翰斯頓做了一些微小的改變，合成的臉變得更加…’。由第二段中第三句“Thechangingprogramthenexaggeratedthewaysinwhichfemalefacesdifferfrommalefaces,creating,inhuman-beauty-sciencefield,a“hyper-female".然后，計算機程序對女性面孔不同于男性面孔的地方進行夸張處理，從而在人類美容科學的領域中創造了一個‘超女性’”可知C選項“女性的”正確。A選項“男性的”、B選項“平均的”和D選項“中立的”均不符合文意。

4.推理判斷題。題干意思是‘維克多?約翰斯頓制造出這樣一張迷人的臉是為了…’由第三段中第一句“Johnstonhatchedthislittlemovieaspartofhisongoingstudyintowhyhumanbeingsfindsomepeopleattractiveandothershomely.約翰斯頓將此做成了一部電影短片，這是他正在進行研究的一部分：我們為什么覺得一些人長相漂亮，二另一些人則相貌平平呢？”可知B選項“研究人類魅力的神話”正確。

5.推理判斷題。題干意思是‘第4段指出，人類的美可能是…’由第四段中最后一句“Itmaybeancientanduniversal,wroughtthroughagesofevolutionthatrewardedreproductivewinnersandkilledofflosers.它（即人類的美）可能是歷史久遠且普遍存在的，由千百年的進化演變而來，成者為王，敗者為寇”確定D項“一個世界同意的價值”正確。

4.翻譯題

TranslatethefollowingparagraphinthefollowingpassageintoEnglish.

在中國，筆(brush)、墨(inkstick)、紙、硯(inkslab),就是人們所說的“文房(thestudy)四寶”，在中華文明的傳承中起了重要作用。作為文化藝術工具，以其獨特性能催生了漢字特有的書法藝術，也促使中國畫形成了獨特的風格。文房四寶不僅有實用價值，它們本身也是供人觀賞的藝術品，并逐步成為收藏品。在當今時代，使用筆、墨、紙、硯進行學習和寫作的人越來越少了，但是在中國的書法，繪畫，收藏以及修身養性活動中，它們仍起著不可替代的作用。

【答案】InChina,writingbrush,inkstick,paperandinkslab,whatpeoplecall“fourtreasuresofthestudy”，playanimportantroleintheinheritanceofChinesecivilization.Astoolsforcultureandart,the“fourtreasuresofthestudy”,byvirtueoftheiruniqueproperty,promotedtheemergenceofthecalligraphyartpeculiartoChinesecharacter,andChinesepaintinghasalsoformedtheuniquestyle.Inadditiontopracticalvalues,theyarealsotheworksofartforpeopletoviewandadmire,andgraduallybecomecollectionstoday.Incontemporarytimes,thenumberofpeopleusing“fourtreasuresofthestudy”forstudyingandwritinghasbeendecreasing,buttheyarestillplayinganirreplaceableroleintheactivitiesofChinesecalligraphy,painting,collectionandself-cultivation.

【答案】第1題:D

第2題:C

第3題:A

第4題:B

【解析】1.細節事實題。由文章開頭‘Thousandsofyearsagomanusedhandyrocksforhissurgicaloperations.Laterheusedsharpboneorhorn,metalknivesandmorerecently,rubberandplastic.’20世紀60年代之前，外科手術使用過的工具有：石頭，鋒利的骨頭和角，金屬刀，橡膠和塑料。確定這些工具都是很基本的，D選項正確。

2.推理判斷題。由第二段中所舉的眼科手術的例子可知，使用激光做手術，可以讓患者感覺輕松和舒服，不需要很長時間就能恢復，徹底改變了外科手術的方法，C選項正確。

3.細節事實題。根據第一段中“Thelightinalaserbeam,however,isconcentratedThismeansthatalightwithnomorepowerthanthatproducedbyanordinaryelectriclightbulbbecomesintenselystrongasitisconcentratedtoapinpoint-sizedbeam.然而，激光束中的光是集中的，這意味著不需要比普通電燈泡產生更多的能量就能點燃，當它集中在一個針尖大小的光束上時，就會變得非常強烈。”可知，激光光束強是因為它的光束沒有分散，而是集中成針尖大小的光束，所以A選項正確。

4.細節事實題。根據“Noknives,nounwanteddamage—truesurgicalwonder.Operationswhichonceleftpatientsexhaustedandinneedoflongperiodsofrecoverytimenowleavethemfeelingrelaxedandcomfortable.沒有刀，沒有不必要的傷害——真正的外科奇跡。手術曾經讓病人精疲力竭，需要很長時間的恢復，現在讓他們感到放松和舒適。”可知，使用激光做外科手術，可以讓病人遭受極少的痛苦，B選項正確。
