】【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了科學家們通過跟蹤和拍攝烏干達的黑猩猩群，翻譯出了黑猩猩用來交流的手勢含義。【8題詳解】細節理解題。根據第二段中的“Onlyhumansandchimps,shesaid,hadasystemofmunicationwheretheydeliberatelysentamessagetoanothergroupmember.(他成員發送信息)”可知，根據DrHobaiter，黑猩猩和人類的共同點在于故意傳遞信息。故選D。【9題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第六段中的“DrSusanneShultz,anevolutionarybiologistfromtheUniversityofManchester,saidthestudywaspraiseworthyinseekingtoenrichourknowledgeoftheevolutionofhumanlanguage.But,she第8頁/共25頁added,theresultswerealittledisappointing.(曼徹斯特大學的進化生物學家蘇珊娜·舒爾茨博士說，這項研究是值得稱贊的，它試圖豐富我們對人類語言進化的知識。但是，她補充說，結果有點令人失望)”可知，這項研究是一個好的嘗試，但是發現的結果是有限的。故選B。【10題詳解】詞句猜測題。首先根據第三段中的“They’retheonlythingthatlookslikehumanlanguageinthatrespect.(在這方面，它們是唯一看起來像人類語言的東西)”可知，黑猩猩的手勢交流很像我們人類語言的交流方式。但是根據最后一段中的“Moreover,themeaningsseemtonotgobeyondwhatotheranimalsconveywithnonverbalmunications.(此外，這些含義似乎并不超越其他動物通過非語言交流所傳達的信息)”可知，黑猩猩手勢的交流方式還是和我們語言的交流方式存在不同的，也就是“So,itseemsthegulfremains.(所以，看來差異依然存在)”。由此可知，劃線詞gulf與difference意思接近。故選A。【題詳解】Researcherssaytheyhavetranslatedthemeaningofgesturesthatwildchimpanzeesusetomunicate.(研究人員表示，他們已經翻譯出了野生黑猩猩用來交流的手勢的含義)”以及文章對這方面的討論可知，文章主要講科學家們對黑猩猩手勢的研究及一些成果。由此可知，D項Chimpanzeelanguage:municationgesturestranslated()D。DAfteryearsofobservinghumannature,Ihavedecidedthattwoqualitiesmakethedifferencebetweenmenofgreatachievementandmenofaverageperformance:curiosityanddiscontent(不滿足).Ihaveneverknownanoutstandingmanwholackedeither.AndIhaveneverknownanaveragemanwhohadboth.Thetwobelongtogether.thesedeephumanurges(驅策力)countformuchmorethanambition.GalileowasnotmerelyambitiouswhenhedroppedobjectsofvaryingweightsfromtheLeaningatPisaandtimedtheirfalltotheground.LikeGalileo,allthegreatnamesinhistorywerecuriousandaskedindiscontent,“Why?Why?Why?”Fortunately,curiosityanddiscontentdon’thavetobelearned.arebornwiththemandneedonlyrecapturethem.“Thegreatman,”saidMencius(孟子),“ishewhodoesnotlosehischild’sheart.”mostofusdoloseit.stopaskingquestions.stopchallengingcustom.justfollowthecrowd.Andthecrowddesiresonlythecalmandrestfulaverage.Itencouragesustooccupyourownlittlecorner,toavoidfoolishleapsintothedark,tobesatisfied.第9頁/共25頁Mostofusmeetnewpeople,andnewideas,withhesitation.Butoncehavingmetandlikedthem,wethinkhowterribleitwouldhavebeen,hadwemissedthechance.willprobablyhavetoforceourselvestowakenourcuriosityanddiscontentandkeepthemawake.Howshouldyoustartmodestly,soasnottobeediscouraged?Ithinkofonefriendwhocouldn’tarrangeflowerstosatisfyherself.Shewascuriousabouthowtheexpertsdidit.Nowsheisoneoftheexperts,writingbooksonflowerarrangement.Onewaytobeginistoansweryourownexcuses.haven’tanyspecialability?Mostpeopledon’t;thereareonlyafewgeniuses.haven’tanytime?That’sgood,becauseit’salwaysthepeoplewithnotimewhogetthingsdone.HarrietStowe,motherofsix,wrotepartsofUncleCabinwhilecooking.tooold?RememberthatThomasCostainwas57whenhepublishedhisfirstnovel,andthatGrandmaMosesshowedherfirstpictureswhenshewas78.Howeveryoustart,rememberthereisnobettertimetostartthanrightnow,foryou’llneverbemorealivethanyouareatthismoment.12.Whatistheauthor’spurposeofwritingParagraph1?A.proposeadefinition.B.makeaparison.C.reachaconclusion.D.presentanargument.13.WhatdoestheexampleofGalileotellus?A.anderrorleadstothefindingoftruth.B.Scientiststendtobecuriousandambitious.C.Creativityresultsfromchallengingtheauthority.D.Greatnessesfromalastingdesiretoexplore.14.Whatcanyoudotorecapturecuriosityanddiscontent?A.Observetheunknownaroundyou.B.Developaquestioningmind.C.Leadalifeofadventure.D.Followthefashion.15.WhatcanwelearnfromParagraphs6and7?A.Gainingsuccesshelpsyoubeeanexpert.B.Thegeniustendstogetthingsdonecreatively.C.Lackoftalentandtimeisnoreasonfortakingnoaction.D.shouldremainmodestwhenapproachingperfection.【答案】12.D13.D14.B15.C第10頁/共25頁【解析】【導語】本文是一篇議論文。主要介紹了好奇心和不滿足是區分卓越與平庸之人的品質，闡述其重要性及重獲方法，鼓勵即刻行動。【12題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第一段“Afteryearsofobservinghumannature,Ihavedecidedthattwoqualitiesmakethedifferencebetweenmenofgreatachievementandmenofaverageperformance:curiosityanddiscontent(不滿足).Ihaveneverknownanoutstandingmanwholackedeither.AndIhaveneverknownanaveragemanwhohadboth.Thetwobelongtogether.(經過多年對人性的觀察，我認為有兩種品質決定了成就非凡的人和表現平庸的人之間的區別：好奇心和不滿足。我從未見過一個杰出的人同時缺少這兩樣品質。我從未見過一個普通人同時擁有這兩者。這兩者是天生一對)”可知，作者經過多年對人性的觀察，認為成就非凡的人和平庸的人的區別在于好奇心和不滿足，而且兩者是相輔相成的。結合下文對此話題的深入討論推知，作者寫第一段的目的是提出一個論點。故選D。【13題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第二段“LikeGalileo,allthegreatnamesinhistorywerecuriousandaskedindiscontent,“Why?Why?Why?”()”可知，伽利略的例子告訴我們，偉大來自于持久的探索欲望。故選D。【14題詳解】細節理解題。根據第二段“LikeGalileo,allthegreatnamesinhistorywerecuriousandaskedindiscontent,“Why?Why?Why?”()”以及第四段“Thegreatman,”saidMencius(孟子),“ishewhodoesnotlosehischild’sheart.”mostofusdoloseit.stopaskingquestions.stopchallengingcustom.justfollowthecrowd.(只是隨大流)”可知，善于提問可以幫助培養好奇心，所以你可以通過培養了善于提問的頭腦，來重新獲得好奇心和不滿足。故選B。【15題詳解】細節理解題。根據第六段“Onewaytobeginistoansweryourownexcuses.haven’tanyspecialability?Mostpeopledon’t;thereareonlyafewgeniuses.haven’tanytime?That’sgood,becauseit’salwaysthepeoplewithnotimewhogetthingsdone.(數人不會；只有少數天才。你沒時間嗎？這很好，因為總是沒有時間的人把事情做好)”以及第七段“Howeveryoustart,rememberthereisnobettertimetostartthanrightnow,foryou’llneverbemorealivethan第11頁/共25頁youareatthismom
