Once I set off on my adventure in October 2016, I found that travelling without using planes was not easy. Trying to circle the globe in 16 months (it took me
15、 a bit longer than the initial 12 months I planned) made it even tougher.

Later in my journey, it took 22 days on a cargo freighter to get from New Zealand through the Panama Canal and back to Philadelphia, to finish my round-the-world adventure.It turned out that travelling with
18、 no reservations was far less difficult than I had imagined.

22、外,我也不会乘坐任何航班,也不会提前预订任何种类的机票)”可知,作者旅行的特别之处是没有提前预定,也没有坐飞机。故选C。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Once I set off on my adventure in October 2016, I found that travelling without using planes was not easy. Trying to circle the globe in 16 months (it took me a bit longer than the initial 12 months I planned) made it eve
23、n tougher.(当我在2016年10月开始我的冒险之旅时,我发现不使用飞机旅行并不容易。试着在16个月内绕地球一周这比我最初计划的12个月要长一些让事情变得更加困难)”由此可知,作者2016年10月出发,16个月后返回,即作者最有可能在2018年2月回到美国。故选D。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“I took three consecutive overnight buses to travel 3,000 km through Argentina, from Ushuaia, the worlds southernmost city, to the capital Buen

Pulling into a city on a bus with a backpack, looking in a guidebook for a few suggestions of accommodations, and then finding an empty room was never much of a problem anywhere.(没有计划的旅行远没有想象中那么困难,带着背包坐公交车进城,在旅游指南上寻找一些住宿建议,然后找到一个住处在任何地方都不是什么大问
27、题)”可推知,作者的态度是积极的,认为虽然旅行有一定挑战性,但总体上是愉快的。故选A。CWhat do you do when you have a problem? Would you ask a crowd of strangers for a solution? It may sound strange, but it has inspired innovation and is the thinking behind “challenge prizes”.Challenge prizes come in many shapes but the basic concept remains
28、 the same. Rather than consult an expert for a solution, you offer the prize to anyone who believes they can solve it and present the first to do so with a prize. Many would argue. “Who is better qualified than an expert?” But actually, not using experts seems to result in a great deal of thinking o
29、utside of the box.Some argue that formal education can kill creativity as it sometimes only teaches a single method to achieve a task. In the same way, some suggest that experts can have the same problem. “If we set up a challenge prize, the experts that compete in it may tell us it cant be done.” s
30、ays Marcus Shingles, former CEO of the XPRIZE Foundation.There are other advantages too. “Youre not asking people to use a particular solution to solve that problem. So you get this large amount of diversity,” adds Shingles.Yet, challenge prizes also come with problems. You dont want to create a cha
31、llenge prize which encourages people to solve a problem where there is no demand. In 1979, a prize of 100,000 was claimed by the first person to fly under human power across the English Channel. Yet, it has not led to the adoption of human-powered flight as a form of travel. And there are those who
32、devote their time and energy only to see no return at all. Overall, challenge prizes dont seem to be going out of style anytime soon. To many, the challenge to innovate and the attraction of the prize are too much to resist.8 The basic concept behind a challenge prize is .A. allowing ordinary people
33、 to compete with expertsB. challenging formal education that kills creativityC. rewarding the first problem-solver of a challengeD. picking out someone more qualified than experts9. According to Marcus Shingles, what can be the problem with “experts”?A. They are less daring than non-experts.B. They
34、suffer from fixed thinking patterns.C. They tend to overlook details of a problem.D. They focus on theory rather than practice.10. What does the author suggest about challenge prizes?A. They may not serve practical purposes.B. Their appeal mainly lies in the prize.C. They are a waste of time and ene

The popularity of challenge prizesD. The problem-solving prizes【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D【解析】【分析】本文属于说明文。主要讲述了挑战奖的理念以及它的利弊
36、。【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Rather than consult an expert for a solution, you offer the prize to anyone who believes they can solve it and present the first to do so with a prize. ”与其向专家咨询解决方案,不如奖励那些认为自己能解决问题的人,并颁发奖品给第一个解决问题的人。可知,挑战奖的基本理念是奖励第一个解决问题的人。故选C。2.推理判断题。根据第三段中“In the same way, some suggest that e
37、xperts can have the same problem. “If we set up a challenge prize, the experts that compete in it may tell us it cant be done.” says Marcus Shingles, former CEO of the XPRIZE Foundation.”同样,有人认为专家也会有同样的问题。作为 XPRIZE 基金会的前任CEO , Marcus Shingles说:“如果我们设立一个挑战奖,参赛的专家可能会告诉我们这是不可能的。”根据第四段“There are other a
38、dvantages too. “Youre not asking people to use a particular solution to solve that problem. So you get this large amount of diversity,” adds Shingles.”还有其他的好处。“你不是在要求人们使用特定的解决方案来解决这个问题。所以你得到了大量的多样性方法,”Shingles补充道。由此判断出Marcus Shingles认为专家有可能因为固定的思维模式,而无法找到解决问题的方法。故选B。3.推理判断题。根据第五段第二句中“You dont want t
39、o create a challenge prize which encourages people to solve a problem where there is no demand.”你不想设立一个鼓励人们去解决一个没有需求的问题的挑战奖。由此判断出作者对挑战奖的建议是它们可能没有实际用途。故选A。4.主旨大意题。结合文章第二段第二句“Rather than consult an expert for a solution, you offer the prize to anyone who believes they can solve it and present the firs
40、t to do so with a prize. ”与其向专家咨询解决方案,不如奖励那些认为自己能解决问题的人,并颁发奖品给第一个解决问题的人。讲述了挑战奖设立的目的;第四段的第一句“There are other advantages too.”也有其它的优点,可知第三段和第四段接下来的内容讲述的是挑战奖的优点;最后一段的首句“Yet, challenge prizes also come with problems.”然而,挑战奖也有问题。接下来讲述的内容为挑战奖的问题。综上所述,本文主要介绍了挑战奖的目的、优点和缺点,所以文章最佳标题为“ 解决问题奖”。故选D。DDeclining me

Most peoples minds function at a high level even in their later years, according to researcher Timothy Salthouse.“These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility decrease relative

45、 a period of seven years. In general, Salthouse and his colleagues found, certain aspects of cognition (认知能力) generally started to decline in the late 20s to 30s.The findings threw light on normal age-related changes in mental function, which could aid in understanding the process of dementia (痴呆).
46、“By following individuals over time,” Salthouse said, “we gain insight in cognition changes, and may possibly discover ways to slow the rate of decline.”The researchers are currently analyzing the study participants health and lifestyle to see which factors might influence age-related cognitive chan

50、据第一段“Declining mental function is widely regarded as a problem of old age, but certain aspects of brain function actually begin their decline in young adulthood, a new study suggests.(心理功能衰退被广泛认为是老年人的问题,但一项新的研究表明,大脑功能的某些方面实际上是在年轻时开始衰退的)”可知,心理功能衰退不仅仅是老年人的问题,一项新的研究表明,大脑功能的某些方面实际上是在年轻时开始衰退,心理功能到老年会更弱。因
51、此,心理功能的一般观点是:C项“It weakens in ones later years.(晚年会变弱)”符合题意。故选C项。【13题详解】词义猜测题。根据上一句“The study, which followed more than 2,000 healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 60, found that certain mental functionsincluding measures of abstract reasoning, mental speed and puzzle-solvingstarted to dull as e
52、arly as age 27.(这项研究跟踪了2000多名18至60岁的健康成年人,发现某些心理功能,包括抽象推理、思维速度和解谜能力,早在27岁时就开始变得迟钝)”可知,研究表明,某些心理功能,包括抽象推理、思维速度和解谜能力,早在27岁时就开始变得迟钝,由此可推知,第二段中划线词“dip”所在句的意思为“与此同时,记忆力方面的衰退通常在37岁左右变得明显”,即划线词“dip”与B项“Decline(下降)”意思接近。故选B项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility dec
53、rease relatively early in adulthood, but that the knowledge one has, and the effectiveness of integrating (整合) it with ones abilities, may increase throughout all of adulthood if there are no diseases (这些模式表明,某些类型的心理灵活性在成年早期相对降低,但如果没有疾病,一个人所拥有的知识以及将其与能力结合起来的有效性,可能会在整个成年期都有所提高)”可知,虽然某些类型的心理灵活性在成年后会降低
54、,但是如果人是健康的,他所储备的知识与能力结合起来的有效性会提高。因此,对于40多岁的成年人,会随着年龄的增长而改善的是D项“The amount of knowledge they have.(他们拥有的知识量)符合题意。故选D项。【15题详解】细节理解题。根据第七段“following individuals over time, ” Salthouse said, “we gain insight in cognition changes, and may possibly discover ways to slow the rate of decline.”(索尔特豪斯说:“随着时间的
55、推移,通过跟踪个体,我们可以洞察认知变化,并可能找到减缓衰退速度的方法。”)”可知,这项研究通过跟踪个体,观察其随着时期的推移的认知变化,并可能找到减缓衰退速度的方法。因此,根据索尔特豪斯所说,他们的研究可能有助于:B项“find ways to slow down our mental decline(想办法减缓我们的智力衰退)”符合题意。故选B项目。第二节(共5小题,每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Feeling Phone-Overwhelmed?So many people are feeling bur

66、t evil or bad, and people of all ages are struggling to find a balance.(智能手机不是绝对地邪恶或坏,各个年龄段的人都在努力寻找一个平衡)”、“Things dont have to be that black or white.(事情不必是非黑即白)”以及后文“Here are a few simple steps that I suggests.(以下是我建议的几个简单的步骤)”可知,上文提到手机不是绝对就是不好的,每个人都在寻找平衡,后文则提到了建议步骤,可知本句与上文构成转折,说明可以采取步骤来与科技建立更健康平衡的
67、关系,G选项中“steps”与“balanced”可对应到上文中balance,与后文中steps。故G选项“但是你可以采取具体的步骤来与科技建立更健康、更平衡的关系”符合语境,故选G。【17题详解】根据上文“1. Make a plan.

69、进。你可以把同样的逻辑应用到你的智能手机使用上。选择你打算查看短信、社交媒体更新等的具体时间,比如,早上8点,下午12点,下午4点,然后尽力坚持计划)”可知,本段主要是关于建立使用电话的习惯问题的,本句为本段最后一句,承接上文说明建立电话使用习惯对人的影响。故B选项“建立电话日常使用习惯,帮助你创造你想要的一天(和生活)”符合语境,故选B。【18题详解】根据上文“This may seem obvious, but turn off those noisy notifications.(这似乎是显而易见的,关掉那些嘈杂的手机通知声)”以及后文“If youre concerned that y
