【答案】4.B5,C6.A7,D

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇夾敘夾議文。文章以LindaKhan給在醫院住院的父親閱讀為例，說明了閱讀可以讓老年

人注意力更集中，減少焦慮以及提高社交能力。

【4題詳解】

細節理解題。根據第二段“Whattroubledheralmostasmuchashishealthwasthefactthatalldaythetwoof

themhadengagedinnothingbutdepressingsmalltalk.Sheandherfatherhadalwayshadgoodconversations,but

nowhisoncewide-ranginginterestsseemedtohaveshrunktothesizeoftheroom.Hetalkedabouttheterrible

樣困擾她的是，他們倆整天除了令人沮喪的寒暄什么也沒談。她和父親一直聊得很愉快，但現在他曾經廣

泛的興趣似乎縮小到了這個房間的大小。他談到了糟糕的醫院食物、檢查、醫生、診斷和潛在的后果。“在

醫院里和一個人坐在一起真的很難，”汗說。“感覺除了他們的醫療狀況沒什么可談的。“）"可知，可汗

的父親和可汗不再閑聊。故選B。

【5題詳解】

細節理解題。根據第三段"Itwasareliefandapleasureforbothofthem.Readinggavethedaughterawayto

connectwithherfatherandhelphiminasituationthatwasotherwiseoutofherhands.Listeningallowedthefather

totravelonthesoundofhisdaughter'svoice,andbackintotherealmofmature,intellectualengagement,wherehe

制的情況下幫助他。傾聽可以讓父親在女兒的聲音中旅行，回到成熟的、理智的領域，在那里他又感覺到

了自己）”可知，C選項“閱讀對汗和她父親來說是一種雙贏的方式”正確。故選C。

【6題詳解】

細節理解題。根據最后一段“Ina2010surveyintheUnitedKingdom,elderlyadultswhojoinedweekly

read-aloudgroupsreportedbetterconcentration,lessanxiety,andanimprovedabilitytosocialize.（英國2010年的

一項調查顯示，參加每周朗讀小組的老年人注意力更集中，焦慮更少，社交能力也有所提高）”可知，參加

每周一次的大聲朗讀小組不能使老年人在“對孤獨的容忍”方面受益。故選A。

【7題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據最后一段"Thesurveyauthorsbelievedtheseimprovementswereinlargepartduetothe"rich,

varied,nonprescriptivedietofseriousliterature“thatgroupmembersconsumed,withfictionencouragingfeelings

ofrelaxationandcalm,poetrypromotingfocusedconcentration,andnarrativesofallsortsgivingrisetothoughts,

feelings,andmemories.（調查的作者認為，這些進步在很大程度上要歸功于小組成員所閱讀的“豐富、多樣、

非規范的嚴肅文學”，小說鼓勵放松和平靜的感覺，詩歌促進集中注意力，各種各樣的敘事引發了思考、

感受和記憶）”可推知，重要的是閱讀的多樣性。故選D。

【答案】8.C9.A10.D11.D

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇新聞報道。文章主要講述了一只北極野兔在破紀錄的旅程中行駛了至少388公里，這次

旅行是有記錄以來野兔及其親屬中最長的一次。在資源貧瘠的苔原地區，既要尋找食物，也要避免成為其

他動物的食物，BBYY成功地抵達目的地，這不僅使人感到震驚，也讓人們看到了這種動物的隱藏屬性。

【8題詳解】

細節理解題。根據文章第三段內容“Giventhehares'importantroleintheArcticfoodchain,scientistDominique

Berteauxwantedtoknowhowtheanimalsmoveacrossthedrylandscapewhereveryfewplantscangrow.（考慮至U

野兔在北極食物鏈中的重要作用，科學家DominiqueBerteaux想知道野兔是如何在很少有植物生長的干旱地

帶活動的。）”可知，他們對野兔進行研究是出于野兔在北極食物鏈中的重要作用。故選C項。

【9題詳解】

詞義猜測題。分析前后文語境可知，劃線單詞之后的句子內容aThafsbecauseharesandtheirrelatives,

typicallyspendtheirliveswithinafamiliarareawherefoodisplentifulandeasytofind.（這是因為野兔和它們的

親戚通常生活在一個食物豐富、容易找到的熟悉區域。）”解釋了為何將野兔的這次的旅程形容為“a

mind-blowingjourney",即一般情況下，野兔生活在熟悉區域里，食物豐富且易得，苔原地區并不是野兔

熟悉的地方，且條件惡劣，將它們放生在這樣的地方，它們將要面臨的困難和挑戰可想而知，因此，一旦

完成這次旅程就會讓人覺得震驚。由此可推知，“mind-blowing”應是“震驚的”含義。故選A項。

【10題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據文章第六段內容”Foraharetocompletesuchadangerousjourney,itmustbalancetheneedto

findfoodwithoutbecomingfood,saysDennisMunay,ascientist.ThatmakesBBYY'sadventureevenmore

impressive,hesays.（科學家DennisMurray說，對于一只野兔來說，要完成如此危險的旅程，它必須在尋找

食物的同時又不成為食物。他說，這讓BBYY的冒險更加令人印象深刻。）”可知，野兔在完成這樣的旅程

中要尋找食物，同時避免自身成為食物，而BBYY完成了這樣的冒險。由此可推知，BBYY成功地平衡了

尋找食物而不成為食物的需求。故選D項。

【11題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據文章末尾段內容“Butevenatthisearlystage,ifsexcitingtofind'somethingunknowninan

animalthatwethoughtweknewquitewell/Berteauxsays.（但即使在這個早期階段，發現“我們認為我們非常

了解的動物的未知之處”也是令人興奮的，Berteaux說。）”可知，他們的研究是在早期階段，由此可推知，

他們會繼續對北極兔進行研究。故選D項。

【答案】12.A13.B14.A15.B

【解析】

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了中國科學家和工程師在開發空間太陽能項目方面的努力和挑

戰。

【12題詳解】

細節理解題。根據文章第二段uMultipleteamsinChinaarecurrentlyfocusedontechnologiesneededfor

buildingandrunningaspace-basedsolarpowerfacility,whichwillallowthesun'senergytobecapturednonstop,

somethingthatisn'tpossiblefromEarth,saidHouXinbin,aseniorresearcher.（高級研究員侯新斌說，中國的多個

團隊目前正專注于建設和運行天基太陽能發電設施所需的技術，該設施將允許不間斷地捕獲太陽能，這在

地球上是不可能的）”可知，與地球上的太陽能發電設施相比，太空太陽能發電設施的優勢是其可以不間斷

地捕獲太陽能。故選A。

【13題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據文章第三段"Aftercollectingsolarenergy,thespacefacilitywilltransformitinto

electromagneticradiation,suchasmicrowaves,andlaserbeamsandsenditwirelesslybacktotheEarth'ssurface.

Receivingstationswill,thenturntheseelectromagneticwavesandlaserbeamsintoelectricityfordistributionto

powergrids（電網）.（在收集太陽能后，空間設施將其轉化為電磁輻射，如微波和激光束，并將其無線發送回

地球表面。然后接收站將這些電磁波和激光束轉換成電能，然后分配到電網）”可知，第三段主要講述了這

個空間設施是如何運作的，也就是如何將電磁波和激光束轉換成電能，然后分配到電網。故選B。

【14題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據文章最后一段"HounotedthatthereisanurgentneedinChinatodevelopnewsourcesof

cleanenergy,whicharesustainable,affordableandsecure,andcanbewidelyused,asChinahasannouncedthatit

因為中國已經宣布要在2030年前實現碳排放峰值，并在2060年前實現碳中和。以這種方式產生的能量將

是無污染和無限的，這種能量來源也可以用來為其光束范圍內的任何航天器提供動力）”可推知，由于中國

迫切需要開發可持續、價格合理、安全、可廣泛使用的新型清潔能源，因此這個太空設施的建設對中國的

綠色發展意義重大。故選A。

【15題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據文章第一段"Amidglobaleffortstoreplacefossilfuelswithcleanenergy,Chinesescientists

andengineersareworkingonabrightidea-soakingupabundantenergyfromthesunandthenbeamingitback

toEarth.（在全球用清潔能源取代化石燃料的努力中，中國科學家和工程師正在研究一個聰明的想法一從太

陽中吸收大量能量，然后將其傳回地球）”以及全文內容可知，文章介紹了中國科學家和工程師正在研究利

用太空太陽能發電的技術，旨在推動清潔能源的發展。故選B。
