121、organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.Viruses can infect every living thingfrom plants and animals down to the smallest bacteria. For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life. Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infec

They can enter our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin. Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect. For example, HIV, which causes AIDS, attacks the
123、 T-cells of the immune system.But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from? Until now, no clear explanation for where their origin exists. “Tracing the origin of viruses is difficult,” Ed Rybicki, a virologist (病毒学家) at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific Ame

130、理解题。根据第三段中“Unlike human cells or bacteria, they cant reproduce on their own. Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.”可知,病毒自身不能繁殖,只有找到宿主细胞才能繁殖,故选C项。2.D细节理解题。第七段是关于病毒起源的三种假说。其中第三种假说是“Third, viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existe
131、d alongside these cells.”可知,该研究认为病毒与宿主细胞共同进化,并且与这些细胞共存,故选D项。3.A词义猜测题。第七段中提到“there are three main hypotheses (假说) to explain the origin of viruses”,以及第八段中“these are only theories”。可知,关于病毒的起源,现在都只是处于理论阶段。现在的技术和数据对于病毒的起源还无法作出“合理的”解释。因此可以猜测plausible意思为“合理的”,故选A项。4.C推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Continuing studies may p

149、看到捐赠人落下的钱,会马上与其取得联系。故选D。8.C句意同上。由打电话可知没有得到答复,也就是没有联系到,所以在下段首句才会写到店员联系警官。故选C。9.B句意:不想把那种数目的现金留在店里,他们打电话到Zanesville警察局。根据句意与选项可知,店员不想把钱留在店里。故选B。10.A句意:多次拨打电话后,警官终于联系到了这对夫妇。根据句意可知,这句话强调警官终于与这对夫妇取得了联系,这是多次拨打电话之后的结果。故选 A。11.B句意:这对夫妇还没有意识到钱不见了。由上文的故事情节可知,这对夫妇的钱是在捐赠衣物的时候,不小心落在了捐赠店里。故选B。12.A句意:在路上,他们停在慈善商店,
150、捐赠了一袋衣服。上一句话的意思:他们告诉警察他们把钱全部取出来去另一个银行。所以此处指半路上他们停下来去捐赠衣物。故选A。13.D句意:那就是钱最后如何到那儿的。上两句话解释的是钱是如何到了捐赠店里的。故选 D。14.C句意:当我们终于与他们取得联系的时候,他们只是问他们明天某些时候是否能拿回钱。空格处与上文中的10 repeated calls, officers finally got in touch with the couple.中的got in touch with呼应。故选C。15.D句意:这对夫妇已经与最初找到钱的员工取得了联系,以感谢他们。此空格与第一段最后一句Thanks

160、using multiple apps or devices at once,” he said. “This can interfere with a childs ability to focus and keep interest on a task. It can be damaging the building blocks for good cognition(认知).”“Sleep is important for brain development, since thats when the brain reorganizes itself and grows,” Walsh
161、added. Besides, exercise has been shown to increase blood flow to the brain and oxygenation of brain tissues, and increase the connectivity of networks in the brain. Too much screen time could lead to a“cascade” effect(级联效应) where kids dont get enough sleep and then are less active during the day. “
162、You can see how this would have an impact on brain health,” Walsh said.What should parents do? Walsh advised setting firm rules about the use of screens including how long children are using the screens, the kinds of apps they are using and how many screens they are using at once. Concerned parents
163、also should preview games or apps before letting their child play, seek out more interactive(交互的)options that engage the childs mind, and use parental controls to block or filter content and limit screen time.答案语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。主题是过多的“屏幕时间”会严重影响孩子的智力。每段大意:1.长时间使用电子产品会严重影响孩子的智力。2.分析产生的不良影响一:这会干扰孩子对某项任务的注
164、意力和保持兴趣的能力。它可能会损害良好认知的形成。3.分析产生的不良影响二:长时间使用电子产品可能会导致一种“级联效应”,即孩子们睡眠不足,然后白天活动减少。4.父母对电子产品的使用制定严格的规定。One possible version:New research has found that excessive “screen time” may negatively affect childrens intelligence. (要点1) It prevents children from focusing and staying interested, thus restricting their cognitive development. (要点2) Also, it results in inadequate sleep and lack of physical activity, which do harm to the brain health. (要点3) Accordingly parents are advised to establish strict regulations concerning the use of screens, monitor the content and limit the screen time.(要点4)
