28.推理判斷題。根據第二段中的“Often,they'llendupfillingtheareawith

smallstonesandusingchemicalstocontrolweeds.Theresultisthatmany

soil.（通常，他們最終會用小石頭填滿該地區，并使用化學物質來控制雜草。

結果是，許多社區，特別是在農業地區，將太陽能農場視為土壤的破壞者。）”

可知，太陽能開發者采用不環保的方式處理太陽能板安裝后產生的問題，導

致人們把太陽能農場看作是土壤的破壞者，由此可以推斷，開發者在安裝太

陽能板后忽略了其帶來的負面影響。故選B項。

場。戶可知，InSPIRE采用有好的方式建立和運營太陽能農場，也就是使得

太陽能農場更加環保。故選C項。

30.細節理解題。根據第四段中的“Over28stateshavepassedlawsrelatedto

棲息地保護和農藥使用有關的法律。戶可知，這些法律都是與保護傳粉者棲

息地和農藥使用相關，所以這些法律的目的是保護授粉者。故選A項。

31.Whichofthefollowingisthebesttitleforthetext?

A.Pollinators:ToLeaveortoStayB.SolarEnergy:HopefortheFuture

31.主旨大意題。根據最后一段中的“Overthepastfewyears,manysolarfarm

reduction.（在過去的幾年里，許多太陽能農場開發商將太陽能電池板下的空間

改造成各種傳粉媒介的庇護所，從而改善了土壤并減少了碳排放。）”可知，

現在的太陽能農場在過去的幾年里已經得到了很大的發展，更重要的是太陽

能農場也變得更加的環保，這將是未來發展農業的新趨勢，再結合全文對太

陽農場的發展過程的介紹可以判斷，本文主題是介紹太陽能農場。故選D項。

【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章指出相較于按照直覺行事，深思熟慮對我們

更有幫助。但一種叫元認知訓練的方法可以幫助那些急于得出結論的人。

36.根據上文“Howmuchtimedoyouspenddoingresearchbeforeyoumakea

decision?Therearepeoplewhogoovereverydetailexhaustivelybeforemakinga

choice.（你在做決定之前花了多少時間做研究？有些人在做出選擇之前會仔

細考慮每一個細節）”結合下文提到了jumper”急于得出結論的人”可知，呼應

上文仔細考慮每一個細節的人，空處應提出另一種人——急于得出結論的

人。C項“但相當一部分人很快就會得出結論”符合題意，與上文內容形成對

比。故選C。

37.根據上文“Wefoundthatjumpersmademoreerrorsthannon-jumperson

problemsthatrequirethoughtfulanalysis.（我們發現，在需要深思熟慮分析的

問題上，急于得出結論的人比仔細思考的人犯的錯誤更多）”和下文“Inaquiz

aboutUScivics,theyoverestimatedthechancethattheiranswerswereright

significantlymorethanotherparticipantsdid-evenwhentheiranswerswere

wrong.（在一次關于美國公民的測驗中，他們大大高估了自己答案正確的幾

率——即使他們的答案是錯誤的）”推知，急于得出結論的人不僅容易犯錯，

而且過于自信，即使在答案是錯誤的情況下還高估答案正確的幾率。B項“此

外，急于得出結論的人也有過度自信的問題''符合題意，呈上啟下。故選B。

38.空處位于段末應承接上文。根據上文“automaticsystem,whichreflectsideas
