10.答案：B

解析：詞義猜測題。根據劃線詞上文“early-21st-centuryNewYorkCityisalasthavenfor

endangeredlanguages（21世紀初的紐約市是瀕危語言的最后避難所）“可知，21世紀初的

攝入量下降得太低，以至于你無法再生產出照顧孩子所需的奶量，這可能是最困難

的。）”以及后文對北極熊所面臨的食物越來越少的問題可知，文章第一段是為了引出

文章的主題：北極熊面臨食物短缺的問題，故選B。

13.答案：D

解析：細節理解題。根據文章第三段“Theresearchersfollowed20differentpolarbearsin

Manitoba,Canada,from2019to2022,fittingthemwithGPStrackersandvideocollarsand

consumption.（從2019年至I」2022年，研究者在加拿大Manitoba跟蹤了20只不同的北極

熊，給它們安裝了GPS跟蹤器和視頻項圈，并定期麻醉它們來分析它們的血液、體重

和日常能量消耗。）”可知，研究者通過GPS和視頻項圈追蹤北極熊，以此來進行對北

極熊的研究，故選D。

14.答案：D

edgeoftherangeatwhichtheycansurviverightnow,“saysAnthonyPagano,aresearch

biologistwiththeU.S.GeologicalSurreyandtheleadauthorofthepaper."Mostofthe

modelingworksuggeststhataround2050,theyaregoingtobeonlandandawayfromtheir

primaryhabitatontheice.”（這篇論文的主要作者、美國地質研究所的研究生物學家

AnthonyPagano說道：“哈德遜灣的北極熊現在可能處于它們可以生存的范圍的邊緣。

大多數建模工作表明，從2050年左右，它們將生活在陸地上，遠離冰上的主要棲息

地“。）”可知，AnthonyPagano認為哈德遜灣的北極熊可能處于它們可以生存的范圍的

邊緣，冰上的棲息地會逐漸消失，由此推知，AnthonyPagano認為由于棲息地的喪

失，北極熊將難以生存，故選D。

15.答案：A

解析：主旨大意題。根據文章第二段“AsanewspaperinNatureCommunicationsreveals,

allofthosechallengesandmorearefacingtheworld'spolarbears,thankstodisappearingsea

iceinourwarmingworld,denyingtheanimalsaplatformthattheyneedtohuntforseals.（iE

如《自然通訊》中國的一份報紙所揭示的那樣，由于海冰在我們變暖的世界中消失，

使北極熊失去了捕獵海豹所需的平臺，世界上的北極熊正面臨著所有這些挑戰和更多

挑戰。）”可知，文章主要圍繞海冰的消失，導致北極熊無法在海上尋找食物，它們面

臨著因為棲息地的消失而艱難求生的挑戰，故文章主要介紹北極熊面臨的挑戰，故選

Ao

16.答案：①-⑤ECGDB

解析：①根據后文“Theystillcontainlevelsofchlorineandotherminerals,buttheamount

issignificantlylow.（它們仍然含有氯和其他礦物質，但含量很低）”可知，空后一句鹽水

泳池仍然含有氯和其他礦物質，可知此處需要一個句子表示轉折，提供了一個重要的

澄清，即鹽水泳池并不是完全不含化學物質。故E選項“然而，鹽水池并非完全沒有化

學物質”符合語境，故選E。

②根據上文“Whatsetssaltwaterpoolsapartfromtheirtraditionalcounterparts?With

traditionalchlorinepools,ownersmustmonitorandadjustchemicallevelsregularlyto

maintainproperbalance-toomuchortoolittlecancausemajorproblemsforswimmers.（是什

么讓鹽水池與傳統的同類水池區別開來？對于傳統的含氯泳池，業主必須定期監測和

調整化學物質的含量，以保持適當的平衡——過多或過少都會給游泳者帶來嚴重的問

題）”可知，空前一句提到傳統氯池需要定期監測和調整化學水平，故本句承接上文說

明這一做法的利弊。故C選項“這很累人，也很耗時”符合語境，故選C。

③I艮據上文“Withasaltwatersystemsetupinthepool,onedoesn'thavetospendasmuch

timetestingandadjustingchemicallevels.Thegeneratorautomaticallyproducesenough

chlorinebasedonthepool'ssize.（在游泳池里安裝了鹽水系統，人們就不必花那么多時間

測試和調整化學物質的含量。發生器根據池的大小自動產生足夠的氯）”可知，上文提

到鹽水池系統安裝后，人們不必花費同樣多的時間測試和調整化學水平，發生器會根

據泳池大小自動產生足夠的氯，此處需要一個句子來說明鹽水池系統的好處。故G選

項“這就像讓一個助理處理事務，而你只管盡情享受！”符合語境，故選G。

④根據上文“Haveyoueverbeeninatraditionalchlorinepoolanyhomeoutwithred,

irritated（刺癢的）skinorburningeyes?（你是否曾經在傳統的氯池中，或者在家里發現皮

膚發紅、過敏或眼睛灼熱？）”可知，空前一句提到在傳統氯池中游泳后，人們可能會

感到皮膚發紅、刺痛或眼睛灼痛，因此可以推斷氯對人體有刺激作用。又根據后文

“Saltwaterpools,however,useasaltwaterchlorinationsystemthatproducesnaturalchlorine

totreatthewater,whichiskindertotheskinandeyes.Plus,mineralslikemagnesiumand

potassiuminsaltwaterpoolscanbenefittheskin.（然而，鹽水池使用的是一種能產生天然

氯的鹽水氯化系統來處理水，這對皮膚和眼睛更友好。止匕外，鹽水池中的鎂和鉀等礦

物質對皮膚有益）”提到鹽水泳池使用的是鹽水加氯系統，該系統產生天然氯來消毒水

質，這對皮膚和眼睛更為溫和，前后形成對比，故D選項“氯對身體有害已經不是什

么秘密了”符合語境，故選D。

⑤根據本段內容“Saltwaterpoolsrequirefewerchemicaladditionsandresultinlower

chlorinebyproductemissions.Sincethere'snoneedforchemicalstorage,there'slessriskof

accidentsorspills.（咸水池需要較少的化學添加劑，導致較少的氯副產品排放。由于不

需要化學儲存，事故或泄漏的風險就會降低）”可知，本段主要說明了鹽水泳池對環境

友好，故B選項“改用咸水池也是環保的"符合語境，故選B。

17.答案：D

解析：考查動詞短語詞義辨析。句意：這是真的，尤其是對于那些夢想著成為從宇航
